Weekly Vocaloid Music – 31

Simply can't resist the cuteness of Rin and Len wearing cat ears! >w< (Image source: 紅雪)

Welcome to this week’s Vocaloid music introduction segment, DT here as always. With the official release of the Miku Append earlier on Friday producers have been uploading new Miku songs using the Append and a few of them sound very promising to be up on the next Weekly Vocaloid Ranking.

Truth be told the new Append makes Miku sound much more realistic and natural than before, and we can expect many more Vocaloid songs to be created that way (when would news of Len’s new Append arrive?) and for me to introduce in this weekly segment as well.

Without further ado, let’s move on with the song introductions~

Weekly Vocaloid Music – 28

Hello and welcome to this week’s Vocaloid songs introductions, I am your host DT. It’s been six months since I last posted this and it’s a good break for me as I try to concentrate on other Vocaloid news and life in general as well. Now I am feeling much refreshed and ready to introduce more songs. :D

Anyways now that I have restarted on the Weekly segment there will be some changes in place as well, hopefully for the better. Along with the songs I will be listing the credits for it (such as the Producer who created the song and the people who helped to make the PV, if any) as well as where to download the songs, I will be referring to Piapro or any website/homepage pointed out by the producers for the downloads. If not I will simply use the Nicosound link instead.

Without further ado let’s get on with this week’s article then~

Counterfeit Vocaloid Nendoroid Puchi #01 Beware!

Recently if you have brought the Vocaloid Nendoroid Puchi set #01 and wondered why is Meiko’s hair yellow, then chances are that you have brought a counterfeit version of the Nendoroid Puchi.

A few days ago Good Smile Company has posted an article regarding the counterfeit Vocaloid Nendoroid Puchis. The differences should be relatively easy to spot. But for anyone interested in buying a set, you would need to be more careful! And if you are buying online make sure you are not getting the counterfeits.

Ah yes, it’s been four years since Kaito was officially released back on 17th February 2006 by Crypton. Me here as another Vocaloid fan around is glad to be celebrating Kaito’s birthday so just hop right in for some of the memorable and birthday songs as well as images created especially for his birthday~

Weekly Vocaloid Videos and Music – 27

Can't help but feel pity for Len, Gakupo and Kaito... =P (Image source: みなみ)

Ah, it sure has been nice during the past week, not only was Miku’s birthday on Aug 31st celebrated in fashion in Japan with a festival being held in her name but also, the much awaited Vocaloid Nendoroid Puchi set was up for pre-order on the same day as well. And the set proved to be so popular that the online reservations on Hobby Search were already closed shortly after the pre-order was out initially. I had a bit of trouble pre-ordering it but eventually I have decided to pre-order with one of the local figures shop here as it’s much cheaper than pre-ordering online. ^ ^

And anyway I have noticed by now that some of the YouTube videos which I mentioned in the previous Weekly Vocaloid Music posts aren’t working, and that’s because the uploader got his account suspended while trying to upload the performances from MikuFes 09 (that’s the festival celebrating Miku’s birthday, if you are not aware). But I will get around to replacing the videos mentioned in the posts very soon so that you can get to enjoy the videos and the music as well.

And in the meanwhile, let’s proceed with this week’s Vocaloid music, shall we?

Welcome to Week 18 of the Weekly Vocaloid Music segment, as usual I am your host DT. Last week we had news from Good Smile Company that they are going to release a 1/7 scale figure of Hatsune Miku and this time round, there’s a more solid feeling to our leek-loving virtual idol (more info on this figure very soon).

Also, something that I have been waiting for quite a few months has finally arrived here, and it’s none other than the 1/8 scale Kagamine Rin and Len PVC figure from GSC, I couldn’t be happier than to add them to my Vocaloid figures collection as a Kagamine fan. :)

Anyway that’s about the news from me, and onto this week’s Vocaloid music then!
