I'd expect Miku to be an ongoing person, the kind of person that's friendly with everyone because she'd find goodness in each of us.

Nothing wrong with that of course but I don't necessarily befriend people like that. Having her as a girlfriend would be the worst if you're ever slightly a jealous/possessive person.

I saw Miku at a grocery store in Sapporo yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything.

She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but She kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I Heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out She doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in her hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Mam, you need to pay for those first.” At first She kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, She stopped her and told her to scan Shem each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, She kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

More of my order arrived. Not pictured is a new copy of the best of otetsu. All used discs in good shape except HMO turned out to be a rental. Disc surface still impeccable for a rental. The page in the booklet where you can see pantsu was stuck together a bit. I'll rebuy it new some day for sure.

>>15610176
That's a nice selection! There's some good stuff in there.

I don't really "get" rental CDs. I mean I guess it's just like renting a DVD, but I feel like CDs are easier to copy? Although they probably have the same protections on them. I dunno, the concept of renting music just seems weird to me.

I like to think she acts nice on front of crowds and stuff but she's actually pretty rude and snobby because she knows she's a big deal. Sometimes you wonder why you put up with her but something about her makes you stay.

Is it right to say that Miku popularity alone surpasses vocaloid popularity in general?

If yes, is she popular enough to a thing such as Miku singing in the 2020 Olympic be considered by the nips?

>>15614548
Yes.
No.

>>15614548
I'd say there was more chance for Miku to appear in one way or another to a giant even such as the Olympics when her popularity was at its highest point (i.e. x years ago) than right now.

Don't get your "hopes" up for 2020, it definitely won't happen, and I personally wouldn't even want that to happen anyway. I don't even like the idea of Olympics being hosted in Japan, it'll just be a shitshow with disgusting foreigners shitting in Tokyo's streets for a few weeks.

I don't see how it'd be related, Japan is one of the world powers and is super clean, they know how to handle a lot of people. No way they'd snatch it away from them because Brazil fucked up.

>>15614548
Yes and yes
The only thing really stopping her is if they want to make her sing in clear english so everyone understand. Otherwise, there's a pretty good chance for it to happen.

Friendly reminder that Miku will be 10 years old next August and has yet to disappear or fade into obscurity.

Depends on what you consider "dying". It's definitely losing popularity.

>>15616725
NND dying =/= vocaloid dying

People are switching over to YouTube and soundcloud to upload their stuff for free. Why should the nips stay on a video site that charges them monthly to upload something and with a video player that hasn't updated since the early 2000's?

It's not dying, it's comfortably reclining. But even then, it's not a drastic decline where it's going to die next year. Just like touhou, vocaloid is practically eternal since there's so many subfandoms you can get into with vocaloid (utaite, MMD, cover artists, etc.)
Vocaloid is not going to die. It's not as a popular as it used to be, but it's silly to think it's dying as a whole.

>>15616740
Vocaloid has gotten past the point where it can completely die out. However, it's not really losing popularity so much as plateauing. It won't make waves, but you'll still have people constantly discovering and buying vocaloid stuff. An interesting statistic would be how many albums producers are selling and how that has changed. Maybe some producer with a decent following would be willing to at least give a general answer if we tweet them.

>>15614548
I hope she at least makes an appearance in the opening ceremony, though I doubt she would be given a full song. She's a pop culture figure very iconic of Japan so I can see them referencing her. Any attention would be good for drawing new fans.

Yup, that would be a negative trend. It's even more noticeable if you include other similar terms like 初音ミク or Vocaloid.

>>15618440
Why is Vocaloid so popular in Eurasia and South America? Always wondered why.

>>15619177
The japanese phenome mimicks spanish fairly well. They say spanish speakers learning japanese tend to have good pronunciation and vice versa. Same goes for vocaloid. I assume Eurasia because of social similarities with Japan, so more people tend to like anime and other gateway hobbies that lead to vocaloid.

I remember some of you were talking about Luka V4X in the last thread. Just wanted to share what I think is one of the best uses of her.

>>15612933

>>15619408
The Spanish comparison is interesting, it might be that people are more attracted to something that sounds similar to their native language indeed.

I know some of our French bands used to be very popular in South America for some reason too.

>>15618495
Popularity is just popularity.
But what the hell is a negative trend?

>>15620263
I thought trends were pretty common knowledge.
There's a positive trend from from 2008-2012, meaning the data points continually go up. A positive trend in popularity is good because it means you're getting more popular and getting more attention every year.
From 2013-2016, there's a negative trend, where the data points continually go down. A negative trend in popularity is bad because it means you are getting less attention every year, any new fans you get are outweighed by a greater number of existing fans leaving. We call this in colloquial terms "dying"

>>15620334
Dying implies the end of the genre as a whole, which is a logical jump from negative trend. The rate of change of the trend is important as the negative trend can decrease over time and stabilize. And stats can tell whatever story you want, sure 2013-2016 is slightly negative, but include the previous 2 years and it looks stable. You might say recent data is more important, but more data points is less standard error, it's hard to say which is more correct.

>>15620334
>the data points continually go down.

If a negative trend continues to trend negatively, dying turns into death.

>>15620420
Yeah except it does though.

>>15620504
Yes but that's the difference, dying implies the continuous trend. A "negative trend" doesnt. You might say microsoft stocks have a negative trend recently, but you wouldn't say it's dying. Connotation matters.

>>15620570
If it's going down and only keeps going down, I don't know what else you could extrapolate from that except death. It's not like this is housing or gold where periods of fluctuation are common and expected as bear and bull markets come and go. This is a 9 year old product that has spent the past 4 consecutive years in decline. That's bad. Obviously no one in this thread, myself included, wants to see it happen, but denying it accomplishes nothing.

Vocaloid SCENE has been in decline, yes, you could also say dying, sure.

Vocaloid music dying? I don't see it dying any time soon, if ever. Just look at how many albums or music is getting produced all over the place constantly. I'm still constantly finding a lot of good stuff and I couldn't care less about nico ranking I anyway wouldn't even watch a few years ago or if some of you otakus aren't getting as much merch as before, seriously.

This pretty much says nothing. There is more accurate statistical tools for perform this kind of analysis (I may do it later).
Also it is kind of retard use only Miku trends, because, as was already said, Miku popularity alone surpasses vocaloid popularity in general.

No more defeatist attitudes and circular arguments that go nowhere and produce nothing. Only actual vocaloid things now.

Would anyone be interested in translated album lyrics? Like translating a whole album's songs instead of just the ones that get released on nicodou or whatever. I've considered it, but it'd be a lot of work for something I'm not sure people actually want or care about. A few certain albums have already gotten this treatment (Jin's work comes to mind) but what about the average vocarock CD?

>>15622142
For some albums it's probably worth it. Ok, maybe not the *average* vocarock album, but songs from artists such as Neru, Wowaka, Kemu, and the like, I think it's worth it.

>>15622142
I've translated a few albums of some of my favorite artists in the past. Never posted anything online though, it was for my own sake.

By now I don't need to do this anymore considering my level of Japanese (i.e. translations just get in the way) but I would totally recommend you to do it as a way to learn if it's something that motivates you.

>>15622142
I tried translating a song once but then I remembered I don't know Japanese so that made it a lot harder.

bretty good.

How do your organize your Vocaloid collection? I've been doing %album% for various artists albums and %artist% - %album% to group original album artists together in my Vocaloid folder. Problem is sometimes the artist name is romanized in the tags, and if I don't fix it they don't get grouped alphabetically. I'd prefer if the Vocaloid was in the comment field rather than feat. inside the artist field, but this is too much work to fix for every album. In fact everything I do (cover.jpg in every folder, fixing original album artist folder names, fixing tags) is a load of work considering I'm rebuilding my lost collection from the grave. ~822 fixed, 2,265 to go.

Also the amount of broken/untagged/romanied files you get from MikuDB that need to be fixed is disgusting.

>>15624747
I use iTunes (I know, I know) because I have an iPhone, so I just group everything under a "Vocaloid" album artist (with the "group by album artist" option enabled), since I listen to other music too and any other way just messes everything up with a million of random producers when you sort by artist.

Only producer's name in artist field, name of the vocaloid(s) in comment, album name and song name in its original form. This way it's organized, looks nice and satisfies my autism.

＊Top pic is inside my main Vocaloid folder. Folders named "- [name of Vocaloid/UTAU]" are for random songs from artists I do not need a specific folder for, etc. [date] [name] are compilation albums featuring multiple artists. All the other folders are discographies.

＊Bottom left pic is inside an artist's discography. "- something" are for stuff, [date] [name] are albums, etc, then the songs are songs not featured on albums (or songs whose PV versions are different from their album counterparts, even if slightly) I ripped from their NND/Youtube.

＊Bottom right is a pic inside a compilation album.

I never use Romaji, everything is in Japanese. As you can probably notice not everything is perfectly organized yet, a lot of compilations aren't properly renamed etc yet and many artists still do not have their discography as updated as the one I showed as an example. This is always a work in progress more or less, it's really time consuming after all, and as I find new artists to listen to regularly I don't really expect to ever have it completely clean, but it's fine. Won't screenshot but I also use Foobar which is also neatly organized.

Having only what you like the most is just as respectful as autistihuge 'all-the-music' collections.

I have everything shared on MikuDB, just not all organized yet. Not planning to keep all of it, some of it is shit. Also I still need to grab some artists I found on bandcamp and re-collect some singles not on albums.

I had an autistihuge collection before I lost it because I'd been collecting it for so long and just wanted to hear as much music in a variety of styles as possible. I get into different moods and want to curate that moment with just the right sound. My tastes change a lot too, so I don't want to throw away an album I may finally "get" and fall in love with someday. ex: kinkyuyuruport

Unfortunately this isn't even my computer and I don't have very much free time to be collecting anymore, but hopefully my depressing adult life will balance out soon so I can get back into it again.

>>15625034
>>15624966
Yeah, having a big collection doesn't mean anything. Anyone could download the MikuDB torrent and go "look i've got 1600 albums" but what's respectable is being able to cultivate your own taste and being familiar with your library and the artists in it.

>>15624747
I use iTunes and put the vocaloid in the artist field and the producer in the composer field (with the box "show composer in all views" checked)
For single songs not in albums, I put them in an album of their own with the album name being the same as the song name
I suck at genres, but I put some music genres understood only by me in the genre field anyways, and I put "vocaloid" or "utau" in the grouping field
Any other tags like "cover", "remix", etc. I put in the comments
It's a pretty efficient system for me, at least

I agree with the sentiment, I can say for sure I've listened to everything from my Vocaloid folder at least once or twice and like everything showed in the screenshot.
I never download albums en masse, and when I do download something I usually don't put it in there first, I let it on my desktop until I've listened to it and only if it has received my seal of approval it can go in there with the others.

Also useless info I forgot to add : Vocaloid specific compilation albums (such as the "IA THE WORLD" series for IA or the "月の歌" series for Yukari) are also organized in their respective Vocaloid folder rather than with all the other compilations for clarity's sake.

Updated the essential crossfades folder with two albums. monaca:factory's 10p-tation and Miku-Ro Adventure. I feel like I should add something by ぽわぽわP just because, and anything requested here, just feel free to name drop in a response.

I'll be back in a limited capacity in the future to update the crossfades just to keep things fresh and exciting.

Just currently or in the past as well? I've been looking for a couple albums that were on mikuDB before but are long gone now. You wouldn't happen to have kiichi's kumoribi would you?

>>15624933
Which ulldull albums? Do you happen to have hakuchumu?

>>15626609
dude uh kumoribi can be found in 5 seconds with a google search

same with ulldull

support ulldull tho please i love the artist and he has bandcamp so fuck off

>>15626609
Although I gotta say you got some top tier shoegaze vocaloid taste

>>15626635
I own hakuchumu, I just don't feel like opening and ripping it. It's pure laziness my friend.

Also seriously? I've been looking for kumoribi forever. Every download I find is broken. I'll look again though.

Anyone have a rapidgator premium acc to dl this for me?

Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed! I like to take care of my CD's as well, but I'm not averse to taking them out of the plastic for scanning and checking them out.


I'll try messaging Kiichi on twitter first to see if he wouldnt mind re-printing his old albums. I doubt he'll answer tho, he's kinda mopey.

I really want EXIT TUNES PRESENTS THE COMPLETE BEST OF ラマーズP above all else, but I can wait as long as it takes you to scan it, I dont even care about image scans, just music files. That album alone is a literal goldmine of pure classic niconico legendary vocaloid videos. It has triple baka on it for gods sake. It's a very good find that you managed to get it, kinda jealous desu.

Bah doesnt matter good albums can be cheap

I myself own that "Hatsune Miku Sings Halmens" album that you got, I nabbed it used for 450yen on an auction site, and goddamn, 90% of the songs on it are really really good tracks from lots of 2007-2009 famous niconico vocaloid producers, really great album as well.

Yeah, that's why I said "semi-obscure". Well known with people that follow UTAU, but not as much by more fair-weather Vocaloid fans, who only know Teto and maaaybe Ritsu. I just couldn't resist the dumb wordplay.

>>15624861
Sal is cool too! Though I haven't found anything quite on the level of Konuko's Ruto works. Got any recommendations for him?

>>15627668
I used to be just like you. I once owned every Miku scale, except for the Cheerful Japan one. I even had Calne, and money set aside for a DD. You just gotta ask yourself if stockpiling painted pieces of plastic really makes you happy or not. Do the 4 glass display cases and closet full of boxes make your life better or is it just a temporary distraction? If it does, then that's great. Figure collecting is a really cool hobby if you do it properly, but man is it expensive.

>>15627690
Thanks mate, this helped I think. I only have one display cabinet so far, but I still have a lot of shit in boxes. One of my closets is filled entirely with boxes though, which is kind of annoying. I believe they make me happy, I really enjoy looking at them and assembling and posing them even if I'm not very good at it.

I have so much more clutter in my room because of it though, mainly because I'm too lazy to clean it every day after work since I'm tired. And good lord is it expensive, shit eats through my bank account.

>>15627271

I wanted to pick up Kaito v3, Luka v4, RinLen v4, IA, Gakupo and Oliver.

Though I've heard mixed things about Luka, there's also the fact I've never used one before or can into music. But I want to support the ones I like.

I like Yukari too, how is she overall?

Luka V4 is eh, you probably want to wait to see if they even patch her or something.

600dpi Scans + CUE + LOG + M3U8 + NFO included because I have autism. I don't think I've ever gotten a 100% accurate rip from a used CD. Sasuga Japan.

I'm ripping HMO now and it's going to take about an hour since I'm using AccurateRip. It may not pass 100% for every track because the disc has some very light surface marks, but it shouldn't skip or anything. No scans will be included obviously because it's scuffed badly and covered in rental stickers. I recall someone scanned and translated all the 4koma in the booklet already so you might be able to find those somewhere.

Just try moving. After you spend an entire day repackaging some 60 or so figures back into their boxes, you'll wonder if you'd rather spend that much time again reunpackaging them, or would you rather have a cool extra ~4G in the bank.
There are surely some buyfag purists who would say that the blood, sweat, and eating nothing but rice everyday are valiant sacrifices to make for one's waifu, but just try to remember that the real Miku lives in your heart, and those effigies are nothing more than the physical manifestation of consumerism, mass produced in a factory by suicidal Chinese slaves, and marketed by a ditzy Japanese girl who's probably going to end up in jail when she gets caught looking up young girls' skirts on an escalator.

>>15630674
>>15631093
Thank you for the rips.
>>15631648
I can also testify to this as well except swap out figures with rubber straps, kuji prizes, and almost anything that's small. It got very stressful for me to complete a collection and to find room for everything.

In the end, I sold a few things on eBay, used the profit to buy the last trinkets I've forever wanted and basically have quit for the last 2 months. Once you realize that trinkets are nothing more than trinkets, it gets easier to slow down on spending.

>>15631648
Ah okay, I think I see now. I actually moved twice right when I started collecting, although I really didn't have much stuff yet, and most of them weren't "real" figures, mainly amiibo at the time.
I had maybe like 1 figma, a few plushies, 20 or so amiibo, and a cosplay.
It wasn't too crazy, but with all of the stuff I have now, I can see how it can be a major pain in the ass.
And Miku does live in my heart man, I think about her like all the time. It's weird really, I only just got into Vocaloid but it really pulls you in.
>Japanese girl who's probably going to look up young girls' skirts on an escalator.
Whoa, do girls actually do this in Nippon?

>>15631689
I think I'm slowing down a bit already.
I used to buy a figure almost every other day, now it's about once a week, or every other week.
I still have a lot of preorders to pay for though.

Okay /jp/ people who can write in Japanese.


I've been talking with kiichi a bit on twitter, and he's willing to sell me all of his older CDs. However, I want to ask him a critically important question, and I'm having trouble translating it properly.

What I want to ask, is as the CD's are older ; are the masters for the audio files on said CD's fully lossless? As in the spectrals go above 22khz rather than cut off around 15-20khz. I can't find a cohesive way to get around the language barrier to ask him this.

X HD up for digital preorders, preordering gets you a dynamic theme, Sharing the World, Hand in Hand, "Snow Miku 2010-2015 pack" and "CA Style A / 39"

That price tag, though

>>15632433
Yea that price is a little too high for me. Will I miss out on anything if I don't preorder? Is the theme an exclusive thing?

>>15632494
I guess the only thing you'd miss is the theme, those two songs and a couple modules, unless the songs and modules will be part of DLC at some point. Themes are definitely preorder exclusives.

I wonder if we could go one thread without "popular stuff is shit" elitists shitting all over the place.
I'll extend an olive branch. Let's say music is subjective and your opinion is the one correct one, old gods like wowaka and ryo still deserve respect, if not for making music, at least for helping to spread vocaloid all over the world. Had it not been for their and others early widespread success, odds are pretty good your favorite noname indie album wouldn't exist if vocaloid had been a commercial failure and fizzled out in 2008.

>>15635820
Ryo has done some stuff. Hachi/Yonezu Kenshi too. Lots of Ps have 'crossed over' into music with human vocals, but how popular they are is up for debate. There's been at least a couple that have gotten veritably famous though.

>>15635871
Any vocaloid single that reached the oricon top chart?

>>15635891
Vocaloid stuff most often isn't released as singles, so I'd wager that'd be a no.

Or do you mean anything by a vocaloid producer?

>>15635898
So, are vocaloid producers capable to make more than one or two songs?

>>15635917
Lots of producers have mylists a mile long. I don't even wanna think about how many songs mayuko has made by now. And deco somehow has been steadily producing popular songs since ye olde days (aside from that break he took after Paloverel World).

Oh god, and lamazeP. It seems like he's releasing a new song every week.

https://youtu.be/Hb9qg1KHgvA I'm not a big fan of Len V4X but this is pretty good. I think that it's also cool to sort of sprinkle tiny amounts of growl throughout songs like this.

It seems easy to use but it's really quite hard to master and make it sound great, but I think that with the right users it can be amazing.

Someone mentioned that Vocaloid has reached past the test of time. That fifty years from now we will still have Vocaloid artists. I agree, to say Vocaloid is dying is silly. At the least it's popularity could drop back to a 'niche' market. But that will never happen depending on how many die hard fans exist. If we truly are crazy about vocaloid, and we are the content creators and distributors and endorsers, then we have all the control over Miku's fate. So as long as we don't lose interest Vocaloid will never lost interest.

I'm rambling but I just have no fear that until the day I die there will always be Vocaloid with me.

>>15645275
you can never replace the classic designs, but I like the clean, modern design language they made for v4. The kags look especially fresh

>>15645344
Flat sleeves and unnecessary sock belts make it look ugly. It's okay but it could have been much better.
Luka V4x has the best redesign from ixima.

>>15645344
I'm fine with the twins except for Rin's shorts. They need to be black. All white is just unacceptable.
There was nothing wrong with her black shorts and belt.

Look at all of us complaining about redesigns. Can't you see we're all old school? In a couple years, people will be referring to 'retro' Vocaloid music and you'll be the Dad rocks of Vocaloid. Not saying you won't appreciate the new music, just you'll always look back and say "X from 2009 was the best!"

>>15645453
all white looks super cute, but I do wish it matched Len better

>>15645487
All white is fine as a costume or something but not the default look. Their whole theme is left and right, black and white, yin and yang, balance, symmetry, reflection, shit like that. I feel like making her almost entirely white was an oversight.

>>15645486
We already have a few dad rocks, see the whole "vocaloid is dying" spiel that comes up every thread.

"Rock is dead! Vocaloid is dead! I'm so angry and afraid!"

>>15645486
I am pretty confident that in a couple years we will see the previous style come back. It's fun to mix things up but the large sleeves (among other features) were iconic and wont be gone long.

It's been said a lot in these threads, so it's certainly not my idea: these outfits are perfect for cosplay. Even if the character designs take a few 'backwards' steps in a couple years, the V4 outfits are always going to be out there and will likely be the go-to cosplay choice for casual cosplayers.

>>15644794
Miku sounds great

>>15645344
I do like these a lot, but I think they changed Rin too much and Len too little. They should have both been white if that's the direction they wanted to go, although I still think Rin is better with the black shorts.

>>15645677
I still say the outfits are worse for cosplay. The most difficult components remain unchanged, namely the thigh high boots and necessary wig, and now the outfits are far more complex, what with all the little ports and futurey accessories. The wig won't weigh as much now, I guess, but it'll still be just as long, or rather, everyone will just continue to use existing Miku wigs instead. The detached sleeves are still there, but now they're skin tight, which means one size fits all outfits won't be possible anymore, or again, people will keep using their existing sleeves.
I would love to hear a proven, experienced cosplayer explain why this is better than the simple, basic cv01 design.
And even if the cosplay audience unanimously agrees that it's better for them, that's still an incredibly stupid premise to base the redesign on. Cosplayers make up an unimaginably insignificant portion of the consumer base. We're talking hundreds of people here, maybe. Hundreds of people whose cosplaying supports CFM exactly 0%.

Nice joke! See, I can tell it's a joke because you said the opposite of what happened. Haha!

>>15646738
Isn't that the reason why the original TDA append Miku MMD model was suddenly available for free instead of paying for it on melon books?

>>15647073
The Miku Append add-on for the Vocaloid2 engine underperformed significantly, and was Miku's weakest package, which is why it had to be merged into Miku V3, because no one wants to buy Miku and then buy Append. Now, there's just "Miku V3" and "Miku V4" with Append voicebanks included.

>>15647132
It's hard for me to believe append failed. Like, if you wanna compare its sales to regular miku, who is the top ranking selling crypton product of all time forever and always, then I guess it would look bad in comparison, sure. But did append on its own actually 'fail'? What are the sales numbers?

Why do vocaloid character designs use arrows so much?

>>15648905
Made it up to fifth place and finished something like 0.006 seconds after fourth. So she started in fifth, spent most of the time in sixth and seventh, then made it back to fifth and fought for fourth the last few laps.

Despite not finishing on the podium, the Miku car got a lot of screen time by being constantly competitive. Much more enjoyable than the last race.

Right now for the entire 300GT series, she is in fourth place overall.

Anyone else just get gut punched while listening to samfree or siina mota or is that just me.

I'm just jammin' to Luka Luka Night Fever and then it hits me all over again. Just, god damn.

>>15652943
I finally stopped being punched a few months ago. You have to let it go, even if it seems that you'll never grieving for either of them.

>>15652991
I took a break from vocaloid around when samfree died and just recently came back to it, so both are still kinda fresh to me. I think I can finally listen to siina mota without choking up now though.

>>15652943
This will probably sound really callous so try not to get offended, because it's not my intention, but in samfree's case, it really couldn't have bothered me less. I didn't know anything about the person who called himself "samfree"; I liked the songs he made and that was it. And he had already started to become very inactive like so many other artists, so as a vocaloid producer, he was kind of already dead. PowapowaP was a little rougher because he was still active, but composing, producing, and publishing your suicide note song and then killing yourself is pretty fucking metal, so I was actually pretty proud of him.

>>15653093
Wait, was it confirmed he suicided? I thought that was a theory that no one could verify because they wouldn't release details of his death.

>>15653129
I mean, he wrote a song comparing his life to an exam full of red marks that's worth 0 points, made a tweet saying "After becoming an adult, the appeal is gone. Maybe I shouldn't have become an adult" and then was found dead alone in his apartment.
It looks a lot like suicide from wherever you look at it.

>>15653150
Well yeah, I mean that's why the theory came about. I just don't feel comfortable assuming it's fact when we don't have all the details.

That piano mash at the end of Red Pen is really chilling though.

I imagine that, even though she wouldn't physically tire the way a human does, she would still be very cautious about wearing out her components when not performing, so she'd actually be somewhat reserved offstage. She'd also be incredibly conscious about not being a "real girl" and afraid that people will look down on her as an "artificial celebrity", especially by human celebrities who might fear competition from a mechanically perfect idol.

People who got X for vita, how high of a priority do you think the game is really going to be worth? I've got money set aside but since I'm not done with future tone not including inevitable dlc, on top of not being too impressed with the demo, I'm considering holding out for a while. Is there any part of the game that you think is good enough to justify not waiting?

>>15659222
Just wait. As much as I like the game I can't really vouch for it and say there's anything you should rush to buy it for.

>>15658488
6 out of 10. Fine.

The Magical Mirai albums never really stand out to me as being exceptional compilation albums.

>>15659222
I'd say, if you know you're going to buy it anyway, then you may as well preorder it even if you know you won't get around to it for a while. Even though the preorder bonuses aren't particularly to die for, I think I'd end up regretting not having them knowing I had the chance.
I'm assuming if you're waiting, then you'd be waiting for a price-drop but who knows how long that might be or how much it might be. Let's say in like, 6 months they drop the price 1k or 1.5k, it'd be cheaper but you'd miss out on the theme and the modules. The website says Sharing the World and Hand in Hand are free for PS4 and I don't see anything about it having a free download period like the Snow Miku modules do, so they might be free forever. If, however, they do become not free after a time, then　buying them would nullify the price-drop.

It is pretty disappointing that it's the same price as a title that came out 2 months before it that has like 200 more songs, but when X came out on the Vita it was 7k, so really it's more incredible that FT was so cheap moreso than X being just expensive.
some things to take into consideration when deliberating are
1) all the charts and PVs are new, and will all play and look fantastic, as in, no awkward/boring PSP/DS ported charts with stiffly animated, copy-pasted dance move PVs on plain white backgrounds.
2) higher level of customization including changing stages and
3) well... it's not much but the live editor mode is a thing. I haven't seen any confirmation but I'm praying to Hiroshi that they bring back custom charts and MP3s in the PS4 version, because there was a small but very angry backlash when they got rid of that. Either way, Live Editor is something for your money, if you like spending an hour navigating the clunky video editor interface to build your own unique PV.
Make a playlist and spend a week listening to nothing but songs from X and see which ones really stick to you. I think the list is really solid. FT has a lot of songs but half of them are complete fluff, and being a music game, the songs are really going to be the biggest thing to consider.

4/10 I don't really like compilation albums in general though. It's like a sampler pack, how can you take it seriously as a body of work?

>>15661063
Because some times it's the only way to get a high quality rip of a song you like.

>>15661063
Get your /mu/tant-ass out of here, son. Vocaloid is not an "art form". There's few, if any, concept albums or anything actually meaningful by Vocaloid producers. They're just fun happy poppy songs with cute bubblegum lyrics that make you feel good. Some of them are more aggressive high energy rock songs or slower love ballads or whatever but they're still tepid and surface level at best.
I'm not saying "This album is good and you're wrong for not liking it" but that you're critiquing it for not being something that it isn't supposed to be to begin with. Like saying a sports car is bad because it only has two seats.
Think of it this way. You say it can't be taken seriously because it's a compilation album. What if it was just a regular album, all composed by the same artist? Would your opinion of it change?

>>15661111
I'm not looking for concept albums. If I listen to an album, I want an album full of happy poppy songs by the same artist or an album full of high energy rock songs by the same artist. I'm find with circles to, because they tend to stay in the same genre. I want to get a feel for the artist's style when I listen to an album, that's all. You can't do that with just singles. If you like analogies, it's like getting a bunch of demos instead of one whole game.

If it had been by the same artist, I would give it 1-2 more points. He'd be pretty talented to produce so many different styles successfully. Most of the deduction is from the fact that, for an album of singles, it's not as heavy hitting as previous years. It's slightly worse than average, not even a terrible score.

That's some entry level opinions you have here.

>>15659793
It's not that I'd be waiting for a price drop but that I'd use the money on something else I kind of want instead. The biggest allure for me is that the setlist is actually new songs.

Guess I've got time to think about it though so I won't scratch it off just yet,

>>15661181
Then yeah, not preordering wouldn't be the end of the world. Another thing to think about is how much you support supporting the industry. Not only would you be putting $70 in miku's pocket, but preorder numbers are very important
