Vocaloids!

Who listens to it? 8D

For those of you not in the know, it's a Japanese voice synthesising software. Each voice is given an anime-type character, who you can then basically program to sing whatever you want by typing in lyrics and melody. xD

Vocaloids! RenandVocaloids32

The five main Japanese Vocaloids (from left to right); Kagamine Len and Rin, Hatsune Miku, Meiko and Kaito.

I thought it sounded a little hokey but my friend Marly then linked me to the original Vocaloids song "Kokoro", sung by Kagamine Rin and Len. It then became an obsession.

The Vocaloids songs are usually very sweet and touching, like Kokoro... but occassionally I think they decide to go easy and lets us have light-hearted things like this.

I dunno, I like them. x3 Who's your favourite Vocaloid? What songs do you like? 8D

(my friends say I have a problem. lol.)

VOCALOOOOOOIDS~ erm... anyways...

Yes. Vocaloids are awesome. :'D
The only vocaloid I've really heard is Miku.
At first I was all 'WTF IS THIS?!', but yeah, it does grow on you. :3
So I guess I really can't say my favourite as I haven't listened to anyone asides from Miku

Although, I must listen to Kaito as he looks fabulous~

Ive got a copy of Still Alive sung by Miku in japanese and its awesome!

I see this everywhere. I swear. I personally find the two twins some of the cutest things ever >_>.

EDIT: *has been listening to it on YOUtube*. This is so cool @__@. Where can I get the songs?

Edit again: SERIOUSLY?!!?! I have looked for hours to try and download four songs, and I can't find any of them ANYWHERE =___=. *is annoyed now*

I cant figure out how to use the program... the fact that I cant read Japanese doesent actually help much...

By Annabel. 19/09/08, 09:48 am

Pura: I can't find any of the songs either. o___O I tend to just settle for youtube but I think you can download them from Nico Nico Douga or whatever it's called.

I love the twins, too. x) They're so cute.

Kitten Slave: lol, that might be it. XD
I don't actually have the program so I can't help you, hahaha...

By Pura. 19/09/08, 10:51 am

I have lots of songs now ^___^

Having Korean friends who can get music from Korean sites is great 8D

I put four of the songs onto my MP3 player xD.

My favourite is A Servant of the Evil~ it's so sad ;__;

ASOKDOSFKODK. I CRIED THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THAT SONG. D8
I was like, "NOOOOO LEN! DDDD: WHY?!"
Have you heard Message of Regret, which Rin sings afterwards? >: That's sad too.

Spoiler:

By Pura. 19/09/08, 12:45 pm

No ... I've only heard the Rin/Len side.

I showed my friend them, and I re-watched the three, and I started to cry ;______;

I became imotional after meeting a certain person. I used to laugh my head off at these things xDD (Actually, that was only once and I was laughing because other people were crying ... It was Moulin Rouge ... And now I cry in that ... I didn't use to ...).

...... holy crap, I think mine was too.
/whut

orz I don't quite get VOCALOIDS, haha, but then again I'm slow on the uptake. ;;;

By Pura. 19/09/08, 01:07 pm

I don't get Vocaloid either, but I still like the songs xD.

I think Jess and I were talking (think she suggested it, don't remember though...) and a whole giant group of Hatsune Miku cosplayers would be uber cool. Awesome costume (see youtube) and the whole mob of one character would be epic.

By Pura. 19/09/08, 02:03 pm

xDD. Epic. I think a Rin or Len cosplay would be cool ;3

By Annabel. 19/09/08, 02:06 pm

I wanna cosplay Len next year. :3 and there was a Rin cosplayer at DO! But I think it would be way cooler to do the twins together. :3
That wasn't an innuendo, I swear to God...

By Pura. 19/09/08, 03:42 pm

The Miku looks really familar ...

Twin cosplay would be cool *o*

By azeria. 19/09/08, 03:49 pm

I need to download more Volcaloid songs. I have about six now. I without Eyes by Ren (I think. The mae twin >_>) is cool~ But Servant of Evil is my favourite <3

But my MP3 player broke today Dx I got it out to listen to during Spanish, it turned on for a second then the screen went black ;;_;; Hopefully we still have the receipt for it *pets*

By Pura. 19/09/08, 03:54 pm

My laptop just broke -_____-.

I hate technology.

I need to download more Vocaloid songs too.

EDIT: Lawl, fixed laptop xD.

By azeria. 20/09/08, 01:02 am

>_>

your laptop seems to break a lot xD

By Pura. 20/09/08, 01:31 pm

It hates me, I swear.

It's like, "LAWL!! THERE'S NO DISK IN THE DRIVE!!" when there IS a disk in the drive -___-.

And now apparently it thinks that there's nothing ON the disk.

I would have believed Nabari no Ou was still an empty disk if I hadn't put Blood+ in (which I've played before) and found out that the disk was also 'empty'.
