Cowboy Bebop is a brave mention, considering in some anime circles, it's considered heresy to talk bad about it (mainly because of how legendary the English dub is.) I personally haven't seen it, so I can't put my own judgement on it. I read one volume of Detective Conan (under the Case Closed...

I had a thread a bit similar to this back when VO was still alive, but I didn't think to recreate it on here until now. Plus the Anime & Manga subforum is pretty dead, so I thought I'd try to revive it. I've spoilered the stuff I've dropped, since I got a bit concerned my lists might get too...

My main issue with Zola's boxart was that the original designs for the guys were really sketchy (as in, they looked like concept art sketches, not final art), which was disappointing considering that the artist was Yoshitaka Amano, who is most famous for being the character artist for Final...

There was Megpoid: The Music on PSP (which just featured Gumi), but it didn't kick off a franchise similar to Project DIVA or anything. It would have been cool if it continued and it slowly turned into a Internetloid game in general, like Project DIVA did.

Shocking news: a crappy music award might be rigged! I've never taken the Grammys or any other music award seriously. It's pretty obvious they favour certain artists once they start getting big by playing the music industry game.

Like Leon, Lola, Prima, the VYs, etc.? From what I understand about musicians who aren't into anime or Japanese culture, they tend not to care a whole lot about boxart (aside from it being appealing from a professional standpoint). I think the Vocaloid program in general needs to sit at a...

I think Vocaloid's stigma is that 1.) It's too associated with anime and wider otaku culture (because of Miku and co.) to appeal outside of the Western anime fandom, and 2.) Vocal synths in general are still a niche instrument among (non-anime fan) musicians, so they're not likely to pick up...

As a veteran/refugee of VO, there was so much drama on that board that they could have been referring to anything, and chances are I could remember the gist of it.

I don't care for "reality" TV in general because anyone with critical thinking skills can deduce they're fake as hell. They're basically a different kind of soap opera now, and if I wanted to watch a soap, I'd watch Coronation Street or Eastenders in the UK. Plus, there's also the obvious...

Some parts of London such as Brixton have bad reputations for being rough, especially at night. I hope you're okay though.

I didn't mind the Coachella song, but it's true that the genre is very much a "safe" choice for the Coachella crowd. I also wished Miku's voice had more power to it in the track, because she sounds quite soft and unintelligible in places (but I do know Miku English has always had that problem)...

I was originally gonna say teal, but the standard interpretation of teal as a shade in the west is much darker than Miku's hair colour. So perhaps it's more of a "light teal" or cyan?

Next stop for Miku - Glastonbury in the UK. :tongue: But seriously, this is amazing for Miku/Piapro/Vocaloid.

My Firefox (the standard version, not the nightly version) isn't compatible with Wed SynthV, and now I'm sad because I wanted to play around with a vocal synth for the first time ever. :tongue: Though I guess I could download Chrome and see if it works properly there.

I like the the idea of making Teto a default VB for Piapro, like Defoko is for UTAU. In a roundabout way, she would still be a 'free' VB, but of much better quality compared to her UTAU VBs. Though you would always get purists who would want the UTAU VBs over a better sounding Piapro bank.

Listening to the demo, the Piapro VB sounds like V2's tone to me, right down to the occassional "robotic fuzziness". I know it's still a beta bank, but I hope the fuzziness is toned down in the final version. But the internet connection thing? HOO BOY. If you live in a place where your internet...

I haven't thought about Vocaloid shipping properly for years because Vocaloid doesn't have a formal canon, so I stopped caring about the shipping side for years. But this thread did make me want to jog my memory of what ships I still like: Kaito/Meiko Gakupo/Luka Miku/Gumi Miku/IA Len/Gumi...

Wat has always struck me as being vague with his tweets a lot of the time. It does annoy me too, especially when it's connected to the futures of the Cryptonloids.

Should be interesting if an indie, foreign or Vocaloid song or album gets big on YT and Billboard picks up on it.

I'm currently typing from my mobile, so I'll check that thread and Reddit tomorrow. That's a good suggestion. I don't think I've had to update the sound card since I bought the laptop. ^^; I have wondered if Firefox had something to do with it, so I could test Microsoft Edge or download Chrome...
