Just recently, the 4th MikuMikuDance Cup has ended.. This is where people uses their creativity to create some of the most amazing MMD videos ever following one of the three categories chosen by the tournament organizers. Winners are then selected through a point system on NicoNicoDouga.. It is so good to see wonderful and even epic MMD videos..

Well, here are the top few favourites from the whole list~

I hope you all enjoyed the videos.. I will most probably be posting up the results soon.. ^^

What happened when you mix Vocaloid with one of the cool OPs in 2008? You will get this wonderful result; “Discotheque”, Vocaloid style.. Taken from the anime series, “Rosario to Vampire Capu2, watching the video makes me remember the anime itself 2 years back.. So notstalgic.. Well, enjoy the video~

Rosario + Vampire CAPU2 OP 【Vocaloid Ver.】

I really liked how well the video was edited out to replace the original casts with the Vocaloid characters, from Official ones like Miku, Kaito and the Kagamine twins and also Unofficial ones like Akita Neru, Haku and Teto.. Miki and Megpoid were not left out either but the main character for this PV is Megurine Luka who have the same pink colour hair as Moka..

I really love the song sung by Mizuki Nana (and so does Chibi.. XD ) Luka’s version seems alrite though it can be improved in some part of the songs where her voice goes slightly off-tuned.. But I still give an “A” for the effort made not just on the song, but also the video editing itself too..

Before I leave, here is the original OP from Rosario to Vampire Capu2~..

Rosario + Vampire CAPU2 OP 【Original】

Credits to BlazingAngel22 for uploading the videos.. ^^

I was quite shocked to see this video up on NicoNicoDouga and also on Youtube too.. It is quite rare to see such Vocaloid anime PV to be made by a user called “Sorata” regarding about the Vocaloid gang set in a near future.. All of the official members of Vocaloid are included in the PV itself, and Fuzzy was very interested in watching the video itself when it was released a while ago..

The video is a compilation of 4 songs; “Hologram” （sm2017619）, “外界” （sm3647835）, “軌道エレベータ” （sm3348512） and “鉄巨人” （sm2471311）.. These songs are sung by both Hatsune Miku and Meiko and I saw that their voices are nicely composed to suit to match the tune of the song.. Congrats to all respective music composers.. ^^

Well, let us watch the wonderful anime PV shall we?

“The Near Future City” – Hatsune Miku & MEIKO:

Animation-wise, I would say it is quite good.. The animation is quite smooth and I love how detailed the characters are.. It feels as if I am really watching a real anime of itself.. I would like to thank “Nukoshiki” for doing the illustration on the giant robot on the 4th and final song of the PV itself.. Overall, I think alot of people will love this video.. Not your average music video, no?

Hopefully we get to see this sort of thing in the future (not so-distant ones lol).. I shall put this as one of my top favourite Vocaloid videos for this year.. XD

6 more days to the grand Anime Festival Asia 09 (AFA’09) and I am getting more impatient to catch Hatsune Miku concert.. Well, to commemorate that, I have here another music video from the Vocaloid gang, this time it is by Gumi or for some, she is called “Megpoid”. The song is titled “Eraser” and it is made by “ep0d” and illustration is by “natsu”..

Megpoid is voiced by Megumi Nakajima. For those who still don’t know who is she, she is the seiyuu for Ranka Lee from Macross Frontier.. ^^ Anyway, I very much like this song because of its beautiful artwork and also the melody of the music itself, very nice to listen to.. As usual, let me post up the video before we carry on with the review~

“Eraser” – Megpoid:

Now about the music itself, it has a very happy and soothing tune, very much like some anime opening song if you look it that way.. Furthermore, I find the lyrics very catchy and the you will still like the song even after playing it so many times..

Now regarding the artwork, I find them very beautiful.. The illustrations by “natsu” are simple yet meaningful.. The artwork on Megpoid is very detailed too, even the colouring itself looks perfect indeed.. Thats how well “natsu” did for his other Vocaloid projects like “Dependence Intention” and 「牡丹」.. Both are also wonderful songs made by their respective producers..

Other than that, I also like how the group uses the “Visualisation” mode as part of the animation itself which makes the whole thing special in some way.. The last time I saw one was when I was listening to “Flowertone” (a very very old song sung by Hatsune Miku)..

Thats the end of this post though I might admit its quiet a short one.. Well, I am quite excited that AFA is around the corner and I hope to see everyone who is attending the event located at the Suntec Convention Centre, Singapore.. See you there~

Must I put you all through the chinese water torture?

For an appetiser! Disturbing pictures of the Vocaloids!

Still not scared? (Ok, that’s not scary. That’s just disturbing. .__.)

My last trump card:

SCREAM! It’s a futa!

Happy Halloween. I’ll drag the nice pictures by later.

Just less than a week after Internet Software company released their picture of their latest Vocaloid creation, Megpoid GUMI, alot of fanarts appeared on Pixiv and Piapro.. Some of them are very beautiful, some were quirky and some of them are downright lulz.. Seriously, GUMI really looks like Ranka… ^^;;

However, I think that the GUMI original artwork was rushed judging by the lack of details on her.. Some of the fanarts are even better than the original ones, IMO..

Well, I was thinking since Kevinay (Vocaloidism.com) post about the gallery, I might as well join in the bandwagon too.. XD So here you have it, some of my favourites pictures of GUMI.. Enjoy~

Just recently, Internet Software company, the company that created Gackpoid voiced by Gackt, has finally revealed the design of their next Vocaloid virtual idol.. As you all know, the latest Vocaloid will be voiced by Nakajima Megumi, who most will remember her as voicing Ranka Lee of Macross Frontier..

This week we find out that the new software, is titled 「megpoid」 which I find it quite unique just like the “Unofficial” UTAU software which created Kasane Teto..

The new Vocaloid character was designed by manga artist Yuuki Masami (of Mobile Police Patlabor and Birdy the Mighty fame). I kinda find out that the clothing on GUMI clearly resembles abit of Ranka Lee herself, from her bright orange costume, her green-coloured hair to her frilly skirt…

She will be released on June 26th this year and she will be retailed at a pre-order price of 15,750 yen, about SGD$240.. o.O Well, it is worth the buy since you can compose a song using Nakajima Megumi’s voice.. ^^

I will expect alot more pics of GUMI or I would prefer, “Gummy-Bear” in more sites.. XD
