初音ミク Magical Mirai 2019
- Thread starter MagicalMiku
- Start date
A couple of my teammates were actually laughing about on what it was supposed to be, to the point that being the advertising guys that we are, we made a mockup of what we think it's for.Dumb, somewhat off-topic question: what do you do with a towel holder? The fabric attached to the D-ring looks really small/narrow, so whatever you dry with it would have to be small.... Though it looks like it can be extended/stretched, which is kind of cool. It looks like it's meant to be portable--hung off a lanyard around your neck or something? Are you supposed to wave it over your head at the concert?
Apologies, I'm just trying to understand what this bit of concert merch is for....
If that was the case, I'd probably use it for my photoshoots when I work up a sweat
Else, I'd be repurposing it as a backpack luggage strap.
@Tainted I looked up what this was called in Japanese (タオルホルダー) and ended up finding out how it's used... it's exactly like you figured out! You can put it on a belt loop or on your backpack. I guess it's for when all that glow stick waving at concerts makes you work up a sweat.
Edit: Maybe if you bought merch like a T-shirt at the event, you could cram it in there so you wouldn't have to carry it around, too.

Oh, those pictures make it make sense! That's why the first image looks like the fabric is looped--the fabric isn't a towel, you put the towel through the middle of the opening. Yeah, I could see people who walk/jog/run or maybe play golf or something finding that useful (though many golf towels have D-rings themselves to hang on your golf bag).
Though I'm sure you could do other things with it, too. If it's big enough or could be made tight enough, you might be able to use it to hold a water bottle or a stack of books. Or you could flip the idea around, maybe, and put the strap around your wrist while the D-ring holds your keys.
Hmm...based on @uncreepy's pictures, it looks like larger towels are often used. From what I've seen in anime/some games, picnics seem to be somewhat popular as social events in Japan (probably especially during/due to cherry blossom season). Maybe they use the towel holders to bring their "beach" towels with them.
Or it could be good to have a smaller towel to dry off a little if you get caught before putting up your umbrella during Japan's rainy season.
Thanks to you both!

Lol ok that makes sense xd
Japan in August + enjoying a Miku event = massive amounts of sweat
So yeah, I guess it might even be a slightly useful thing.

This was recently revealed!
It seems this year everyone is going to have a sole design! Honestly I had been recently thinking that the fact their outfits changed between official art was a pet peeve of mine so this might be one of the announcements that made me the most excited~ Everyone looks amazing (Maybe Luka's palette isn't my favorite but nevermind!) can't wait to see more illustrations! Hopefully they keep the trend for next year~
And regarding the theme songs, I like Miku's one! It's not the sound I'm used to from Kurage-P so that threw me off a little bit at the start, but it sounds good so far.
Yet Luka's one hmmm not really convinced, most likely because I just don't like when Luka is tuned that way lol She can sound cute and happy without making her voice highpitched... I'll wait for the full version, too, regardless.
And Shinkai City Underground is in the album so I hope is preformed life please please please please

That is amazing! :-D
Hope they'll use it live... maybe even a song where they all appear together again? One can dream^^
And hah all the songs on the album, except for the last song which is labeled as "bonus", will be played live if it's anything like the last few years^^ Don't think they ever didn't play one of those.

I feel kinda out of the loop this year. For the past few year I knew 90% of the songs on the album but this year I probably only know 50% of them...
Also you guys know about the Mikufan discord?
There's a magical mirai channel there that can make it faster for us to communicate especially when we're trying to meet up. Forums are kinda slow for that. There's also some nice info there.

Are you talking about the Vocaloid discord server? I don't think there is any affiliation with Mikufan. The one I am talking about is very active it seems and there are many people talking about Mirai, and there is even a Google Document you can enter your planned dates for your Japan stay as well as which concerts you attend.
About being out of the loop... seems to be your own "fault"?
Just by naturally following news and looking for new songs as usual, no change for me for the last for years, I knew every song on the album except for one (that Meiko song).

No not that one? They posted it in Mikufan, here's a linky
MikuFan Now Has an Official Discord Server!
And how do you search for new songs? I'm curious as to your personal method.
So two main methods!
One, many of my favorite producers now also have an active YouTube account, not just Nicovideo, so I just naturally get to see when there is a new song.
For other stuff, I still follow the Weekly Vocaloid NicoNico ratings, like the charts of Vocaloid, which you can also find on YouTube, this channel reposts them there.

And this is the Vocaloid Discord I know, seems pretty active as I said, especially about Mirai :-)

2 out of 3 ain’t bad!!
