In case you missed it, ミクチャ/ Mikuture app was finally updated a couple of days ago and is working again!

You have to go to Google Play store and download the update manually, the app doesn't give an update prompt (for me at least).

I'm so glad it's finally usable again^^

Here's that Luo Tianyi and Dimash performance from a few hours ago that was aired on tv

That was so nice!!! It made me smile! And Tianyi is so tiny, I loved this.

Oh, so Miku did get a spot at the upcoming Japan Olympics, like people were speculating! That'll be worth checking out.

Have you all seen this cool as heck fight scene with Rin and Len??

 

[hamano]

Russian State television had a nice feature on Miku. I don't speak Russian, but from what I've heard their take is good, not at all the "look how weird this is" mentality some western media likes to uphold.

Here's actually a pretty good article of Miku, the writer actually tries to explain the culture surrounding her. The photos are terrible though, the lighting and overall quality of them isn't much. I posted this here instead of the Miku Expo thread since it doesn't really talk about the concert itself, but rather Miku on a general level.

Wow! That was a really well written article! I like the positivity it brings and how they really put in a lot of work to truly explain the culture surrounding her. I especially liked that they mentioned how a love of Miku and other Vocaloids brings people together. Someone clearly put a lot of time, effort, and research into the article!
