Vegetable juice will agree with you!

[la_belle_laide]

According to my goddessdaughter, redrupee, this is my theme song:

I can only agree, since I do that to just about everyone. What's more, I really like Kagome vegetable juice and it looks like that's what she's supposed to be holding. ^_^;;

...she really wants you to drink her juice.

I love Japanese advertising. All that white rice is laced with crack.

[shonagonchan.livejournal.com]

Haha, I do too!

This isn't an actual advertisement though, this is a Vocaloids video. Vocaloids are really cute. Gackt is one, actually. O_O

[skitty-kitty.livejournal.com]

Gackt is everywhere. Like mold. ;D What's a Vocaloids?

[shonagonchan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, seriously! But I have to admit, I really like the dude's voice.

I'm not 100% sure how the Vocaloids work (my cousin could tell you more,) but I think it's a program that takes human voices and computerizes them (is that technical enough for you? heehee,) so that they can sing any song. Then, the company that made this program animated some characters to go with the different voices and they make all these videos. It's actually quite cute and clever.

Okay, so I wiki'ed it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocaloid) what I was trying to say was this:

Vocaloid is a singing synthesizer application software developed by the Yamaha Corporation that enables users to synthesize singing by just typing in lyrics and melody. ^_^

Gackt's animated personality (in this little venture) is Gakupo Camui. Far cry from Genesis!

sweet, thanks for the info. you could have lot of fun with that type of program. ;D

[shonagonchan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, seriously! I am just thinking of the stuff I would do.... ;)

OHO have I succeeded into forcing you to love these guys? Because they are, like, so much fun. You can spend hours looking up all the covers they do with them.

They're basically voices with physical designs, and the fandom built up their personalities via fannon. And, believe me, you won't be able to find a popular game or anime they haven't crossed over with.

It seems as if Cloud is always dancing. O_O Did fandom really create the characteristics? That's kind of neat!

ETA:

OHO

OMG you just called your cousin a HO.

LOL well I do have it written on my door.

Yes, every aspect of their personalities is completely made up, even their character items (the food they carry around), but it's all universally accepted somehow! It's really cool how in-depth they ended up being, too.

KAITO, the blue guy, is kind of retarded, but he's sweet. His item is ice cream because he's such a sweet guy, in fact. Everyone always beats him up and pushes him around because he can't say no.
MEIKO is emotionally/physically abusive and a total boozer, and her item is sake because she likes getting wasted. She's nice to the kids but she pushes the adults around for kicks. She's the mother figure of the little cyber-family.
Hatsune Miku, the most popular Vocaloid, is a super-peppy "dumb green" with the mental capacity of a 7-year-old. She's really nice to everyone and her item is a leek... Because it's green, I guess. O_O She looks up to the older Vocaloids as her older brothers and sisters.
Kagamine Rin and Len are twins, but they're polar opposites. Rin is really outgoing and she's basically bipolar, because she can be super nice in one second and beating the crap out of everyone in the next. Len, on the other hand, is super shy, and he takes after KAITO in that he can't say no to people. He's also got some serious self-esteem issues, probably because his sister always beats him.
Kamui Gakupo was probably intended to be SRS BSNS, but fandom made him more like KAITO. He's nice and sort of doofy, and he can be chilly to his age-group every so often, but he gets along really well with the children. Not so much with KAITO because they clash a lot and tend to bicker amongst themselves.
And Megurine Luka, the latest Vocaloid, is probably the meanest out of all of them. Like most of them, she's nice to the children, but she totally freezes out KAITO and Gakupo's attempts at friendship. She's also obsessed with honorifics and she requires everyone to be polite at all times.

TL;DR but there you go. A BRIEF HISTORY.

[shonagonchan.livejournal.com]

That's really cool! And if I ever have to explain it to anyone again, I will simply link to this little conversation. :)

Besides, how can anyone really take Gackt totally seriously? I mean, have you ever seen that guy dance? F'realz.

[redrupee.livejournal.com]

I have no idea how anyone can take Gackt seriously. He's so much fun ;___;

btw, I almost forgot, Rin and Len's items are an orange and a banana, respectively, and Luka's is a tuna. (not so sure about that one...)
