R.T PARTE 10 "ALice" Happy 10th R.T Parte~

OOH.I have time for one teeny weeny R.T Parte.The pic is very boring as i had no time to edit it BEAUTIFULLY.Pay no mind to it.Well,unfortunately I was going to celebrate my 10th R.T Parte.But I have no time to. Okay maybe later. OKay. Okay. Maybe NOW. oh well.

Okay.Recently (seriously not.long time ago already.), i remembered that once a youtube user commented on "alice" by vocaloids>? Seriously, but as a Vocaloid fan, surely you know that there is a ton of vocaloids songs (maybe not) with the word alice in it right? So, today's R.T Parte will be exactly that.

Alice-Hatsune Miku (listen to Ritsuka's version. It's heaven~)


Persona Alice-Hatsune Miku


Dark Alice-Hatsune Miku

My very first NND covers (that i've listen to)

clear's Iroha Uta. Seriously last time i thought it was kaito (the pic said it all),but then it was human voice and i was extremely puzzled. First solo NND cover to hear was clear.(AREN'T I LUCKY?)


Then came this which i didn't know was a NND chorus. It was the first time listening to Iroha Uta anyways.XD Moved on to Rin's ver.


Ah~Alice Human Sacrifice. Surprisingly it was the same as Iroha Uta. After A.H.S i discovered Machigerita-P (DRW? Test Tube Pricess? Rotten Girl, Grotesque Romance ?)


(Did i mention Machigerita-P ROCKS MY SOCKS? Musician, Painter and Singer all in one go!!!!~!!!!~~~~)
Listen to his voice.This is a Y to Y ver. feat.Sora. (Though Sora only sings Mirai after Machigerita)

Eh?A,Sou.

OH?oo R.T Parte 8 (I think?)

IM GOING TO SEE SHEEP AND KIWI THE BIRDDD~~ YEAYYYY~ XXXXXDDDDD

Oh. Just recently Utatane Piko was released. He sounds like NND's Piko. Really.Hm.Maybe it IS him>>? I listened to his demo and he sounds like Iroha's low voiced ver. I looked at the comments and they said that he sounds like Gkupo & Rin's daughter..and one look he looks like a girl witha thigh length dress like Miki.Maybe they'll be together as the design is ALMOST similliar (uhm. please look at wikia. He a guy for cryi'n out loud and he sounds feminine) I also found out Fujita Saki is Hatsune Miku's seiyuu and her song Crystal Quartz sounds exactly like a human Miku? (Append.Append!!! Has a LOOONG way to go. But it sounds beautiful too >3 ) Asami Shimoda's Rin Rin Signal differs her Rin&Len Voice very WELL. (Rin & Len's seiyuu)
Thats it for todayy.."

Vocaloid Gachapoid

His human form?


At the Nico Nico Douga Daikaigi 2010 Summer: Egao no Chikara event, YAMAHA, Fuji TV Kids, and the Internet Co. Ltd. music and software company announced that they would release a new voice pack for the Vocaloid2 singing simulation softare. The pack will be based on the Gachapin character from Hirake! Ponkikki, a popular Fuji TV kids' program which ran from 1973 to 1993. The "Gachapoid" Gachapin x Vocaloid voice pack CD will be released on October 8 with a special green case and a free six-month subscription to Nico Nico Douga's premium paid service

Usage for Music
Gachapoid is intended to appeal to young audiences and is designed with young producers in mind. His voice is perky and significantly different to other voices before him. He is not intended to sound like a normal human at all since it was orginally designed for a cartoon character. Though he is significantly different to other Vocaloids, his voice is reported to be difficult to work with, though results need not be as perfect as with more human sounding Vocaloids.

(oh.uhm. A dinosaur?? O-kay..Well according to Youtubers, Half of them like him and half of them react like me. But to say he's a trifle unusual. Wonder what's going on in the creator's minds huh? But if the creating speed of new vocaloids would be slower a bit then that would be better. You get to satisfy their voices for a while then a new one comes along.Even VY2 which is supposed to be 'masculine' (second to VY1 which has a feminine voice.The VY series is genderless.)and Utatane Piko is coming out soon. Hey! Iroha and Gachapoid were just released a while ago hello?)

Matryoshka

R.T Parte 6

My Project:01 Started on November 22 00:00

Currently Working on DVD Burning (though illegal) from all the Vocaloid PV'S I've collected because my PC has no Space. So...BRS might wait a VERY long time. Since i'm off to New Zealand on December 9 until after Christmas, oh well. D o you think that my DVD burning is so easy? Well, nothing in this world is easy LOL.

I have to first convert all my videos which are .flv into .avi. (all 100 over vids)
Oh but that already takes up a HUGE ENORMOUS chunk of my time. Then oput it into a DVD. But i'll have to persuade my mom to let me use her laptop since my PPC is not DVD burnable.

Well okay, maybe that IS easy. But to me is ain't so. OH! Did i tell you about my day?
Well this past few days (since my final day of Form1) have been relatively boring. I use the PC (As i'm doing now) until 3a.m in the morning and then go and sleep. I wake at about 12? Then i go eat Lunch. Amusing isn't it? I don't EAT breakfast AT ALL. Seriously. Well, i blog every other day. sO...

Ho hum. I have nothing to do and just waiting for my PV's to be converted. So i just read read and READ manga until i go crazy. (Did i mention that i always read a manga about 5 times? Untl it becomes "permanent" in my PC folder.) Sigh.

Oh well until then i have somemore interesting things to share with you all. TA-TA!!~

WIKIA-Black★Rock Shooter

Black★Rock Shooter (ブラック★ロックシューター) is the
titular character and a protagonist of the anime OVA
Black★Rock Shooter, the RPG of the same name, and is
originally the protagonist on the song of the same title.
She was created by huke who participated in the song
Black Rock Shooter. In the OVA, she is the "other self" of Kuroi Mato.

She is voiced by Kana Hanazawa.

Appearance
Black★Rock Shooter is a pale-skinned, blue-eyed girl, with black hair in uneven twintails (possibly because one tail was burned); the right lock of her hair is shorter than her left. She bears two scars on her midriff; she wields an arm cannon and a katana named Black Blade. A blue flame shoots out from her left eye.

Her clothes consist of a string bikini top under a black jacket. The jacket has a white stripe running along the length of each of her sleeves and has a white star design on the front (left side) and back. She also wears a pair of tight-fitting shorts, gloves, and black knee-high boots.

Her weapons consist of a black-hilted katana and a large gun called the ★rock Cannon, which can be transformed into a similar large blade also used by Insane Black★Rock Shooter. The ★rock Cannon has a rate of fire of 20 shots per second.

In the anime, her eyes have a concentric circle pattern like all of the "other selves".

Personality

Black★Rock Shooter is a calm, collected girl; she does not speak at all until her confrontation with her "other self", Kuroi Mato, near the end. She does not focus on anything except the most important thing she has to do at the moment.

She is very skilled in fighting, despite being quickly taken down by Black★Gold Saw in her first shown battle. Black★Rock Shooter is able to fight evenly with Dead Master, despite appearing to try not to hurt her. Dead Master is able to initially outwit her, but even when she was chained downed, Black★Rock Shooter is able to find renewed strength and defeat Dead Master.

History
OVA plot
Black★Rock Shooter is stabbed by Black★Gold Saw.
Added by XionXIVBlack★Rock Shooter is initially shown in her world, fighting against Black★Gold Saw with the "black blade" for an unknown reason. Though the sillouette is unclear, it looks like Black★Rock Shooter is impaled by Black★Gold Saw and left to be crushed under falling rocks.
When we next see her, she is appears to be waking up and at the edge of a broken bridge, now wearing a long trench coat, and sporting a new weapon: ★rock Cannon. Along with now displaying the well known scars from the orginal designs. She crosses many different scenes and finally ends up at a castle, and as we soon learn, is the residence of the Dead Master. Initially, her reasons for fighting or pursuing the Dead Master are unknown.

Inside the palace, Black★Rock Shooter finds her opponent;
B★RS holds out her hand to Dead Master.
Added by XionXIVshe holds out her hand, and the Dead Master responds by attacking. The two begin their fight, with Black★Rock Shooter igniting her eye and powers, both of them seemingly equal.
The Dead Master manages to ensnare Black★Rock Shooter in a web of chains, where she is apparently trapped. However, as Kuroi Mato comes to terms with her feelings, Black★Rock Shooter gains the strength to break from her chains with her bare hands. Once again, she holds out her hand to the Dead Master. The Dead Master is confused, and when she falls off a ledge, Black★Rock Shooter pulls her up and embraces her. The Dead Master, unable to handle this, escapes from Takanashi Yomi's body and dissolves.

Black★Rock Shooter is then shown with Kuroi Mato, her human counterpart. She speaks for the first time to ask Mato if she wants to save Yomi. Mato answers that more than saving Yomi, she wants her back with her. Hearing that answer, Black★Rock Shooter and Kuroi Mato merge together. It is unknown at what point the merge was, but it is implied to have been before the Dead Master fight.

Duets/ Quartets etc.That sound AWESHUM~

Oh. Hum. This just maybe will be R.T Parte6 u know.Oh but well.

My JOURNEY >In Bcoming a Otaku & Fujoshi (not really++)

Its sounds so DRAMATIC UP THERE ^^^
Oh well, I was feeling random today so here we go. I'll tell you about the time i started liking anime and manga.(heh heh...i sound so perverted...==)
Weeell, The first anime i've watched is PARADISE KISS!! (OMG, can u believe that?)
I just realised it, but isn't that anime super (not for a kid like me genre) adult one? Not really smutty but should you be showing it to a standard 3year old kid? Hello? PEOPLE??
It was actually my sister's friend "fishball eyes" (trust me she hates her. The name gives no hints?) and that was the first time i discovered Youtube. Thats so tragic i'll tell ya.

Then I watched my first "transforming shoujo" anime, Tokyo Mew Mew. It's not even SAILOR MOON.Jeesh. Well i watched Sailor Moon too you know after that. But all the seasons had missing eps last time so i didn't get to watch them resulting in me skipping about 60% of the eps. *DEEEEP Sigh*

Then went on and on. Anime, Manga and on.
Well, Then suddenly my friend who IS a hardcore fujoshi, Introduced me to YAOI. Seriously. I din't even suspect anything. Until i watched my first yaoi anime, Junjou Romantica. I thought, "Holy shit! I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS??!!?"

I became a fan right there and then. So~ Which brings me to the present, I am currently looking for nice yaoi manga such as from Minami-sensei,Kisaragi-Sensei& Takanaga-sensei.(KYAAA~)

How to Search for 801 Manga& Anime..
It's not like i copied this from anywhere, but i just want to share with you all my technique to find manga nad anime.Aarinfantasy is a good source for 801.Well My routine is like this. Since i have searched for some yaoi on Mangatraders, The Mangaka I like most i'll go search for them on Baka-Updates. Then, i'll looking for the ones i like, google searching for them adding "mediafire download" behind the title. Usually i find them right on top. So i just download them, unzip them and VOILA! u can read them ALREADY!! But sometimes, if you REALLY can't find them, u must go to their scanlation website and download from there.The 'Yahoo answers' in the column next to my posts title "the things i like or so~" will give some nice titles and some websites to find 'em. Good luck~

Btw this is off topic, but can SOMEONE recommend me some Shoujo or Yaoi manga? I'm dying just not reading anything~~ T^T

My genres or Shoujo manga are : Fantasy,Reverse Harem,Comedy & Romance. (If all three then that would be a miracle!~)
For Yaoi it would be: The seme and uke are both young and Bishie-ish. Thats all.Heehee
(I don't like ones that the seme is a 'old' looking guy while the uke is a prissy. But well, anyhthing goes. I would rather prefer Good stories and Hawt scenes.>///< Tats so embarasiing for me to say~) My hardcore Fujoshi friend likes the seme and uke 'reversed' like the uke is the older one and the seme is the younger one. And the type that i mentioned above.But well, some change is good for my heart you know.)

Vocaloid SF-A2 Furukawa Miki

SF-A2 miki (SF-A2 開発コード miki) is a Japanese Vocaloid released in December 4, 2009.

Usage for Music
Miki has been used mostly for pop songs.

Her voice is often compared to other existing vocaloids such as Rin, Luka and Meiko and is noted for her voicebanks sounding similar to other Vocaloids. This makes her a varied Vocaloid but led to many complaints at her release that everything Miki does has already been covered by other Vocaloids in the Vocaloid 2 era.

However, despite the inital complaints towards the lack of distinction with in her voice, she has hidden talents as a "Jack of all trades" amongst the female Vocaloids. Her voicebanks are easy to blend in with current voicebanks and she can be used to close the gaps between the other female ranges to smooth out the differences between the singing group. This also ensures with some minor adjustments she can be the partner to almost all of the female voicebanks within her era and harmonizes well with them.

She was also used for the introduction of the Hello Kitty game, Hello Kitty to Issho!

Vocaloid Miriam

Miriam is the third Vocaloid installment from Zero-G and was released on the 10th of July, 2004. Her voice is based off the popular British singer, Miriam Stockley, who is also the lead singer of the band, Adiemus.

Usage for Music
Miriam is made to sing in English and sings with a British accent, but can sing better in Japanese and Korean than other English Vocaloids for having vowel sounds which can make sound similar to those of the target languages. Like Lola, Miriam has limited information supplied to aid users in working with her due to her low usage, however she has been used for more songs then Lola overall. Like Lola, Miriam also has a mature voice, but is much softer and can hit higher pitches much easier and clearer, hence why her voice is favored more so over Lola's. Miriam is commonly used for serious songs.

She is fortunate to have less of a robotic "twang" sound to her voice then Lola and Leon, but despite the improved engine may need as many edits to her voice as they do. Unlike Lola and Leon, users do not tend to attempt to play off her robotic-ness and usually pay more attention to make her sound realistic.

Miriam's demo version gives users a chance to experience usage of the phonetic system for english. However, greater manipulation of her voice is absent and users are limited to having her sound robotic.

CDs Edit

Vocaloid Lola

Lola was the first female Vocaloid ever released along with fellow Vocaloid Leon. Lola was released on the 15th of January 2004 and she is commonly used for trance or techno music.

Usage for Music
Unlike Leon, Lola has not been used as much, so information amongst fans is limited compared to many other vocaloids. She is mostly used for techno and digital music despite being sold as a soul singer. Like Leon, she suffers from the same robotic sound as due to the early Vocaloid engine and both Leon and Lola have the worst robotic "twang" of the Vocaloid era voicebanks. So like with Leon users must apply the same editing techniques to her voice to make her sound realistic, it's difficult but not completely impossible to achieve. As with Leon some users do not attempt to hide her robotic voice and likewise also with Leon, perfection is not necessary to achieve results due to the acceptance of the dated voicebank.

Her biggest advantage over other female vocaloids is her strong, husky voice, having the deepest of the current female voice banks. However she is often commented to sound like a man (ironically, at times Leon can sound female) because of how the vocaloid engine handles her voice. At the same time her voice has placed her as one of the less populaur voicebanks, as most vocaloid users prefer a clearer and lighter female voice. She can be hard to blend in with other voices, although not impossible, and contains many flat notes although this again is due to the Vocaloid voice engine. She also has a unique ring to her voice that other females do not, similar to how users have commented on Big Al's accent gives his voice a unique sound.

A Japanese electropop-artist Susumu Hirasawa used Vocaloid Lola in the original soundtrack of "Paprika" by Satoshi Kon.[3]. Susumu Hiarsawa announced that "If users can edit her perfectly, she can be a proffesional (singer). She can sing in soprano or whatever if they edit her overwhelmingly" on his blog. Since Susumu Hirasawa has not told which Vocaloid he used for a long time except the fact it was a female vocaloid, many fans speculated it was Meiko. However, later he mentioned on a magazine interview that it was Lola.

Vocaloid Leon

Leon was the first male Vocaloid to be launched along with female Vocaloid, Lola, at the NAMM show on the 15th of January, 2004, and was eventually commercialized on the 3rd of March, 2004, at the price of 39,800 yen. He is a "virtual male soul vocalist modeled on a real professional singer" and was created for the English speaking community.

Usage for music
He is mostly used for techno, pop and digital music, but was sold as a soul singer and sings with a soft mellow voice. Leon can reach a similar notes to Kaito, but his voice favors more deeper notes then Kaito, although arguly most users aim for a higher pitch. Ultimately though, he tends to end up sound affeminate at times (just as how some describe Lola as sounding like a man), but this is simply due to the Vocaloid engine. A number of songs have been produced poking fun at his voice by users.

Due to his dated voicebank, there is no escaping the robotic sound caused by the Vocaloid software engine and both he and Lola are guilty of having the worst robotic "twang" of the Vocaloid era voicebanks. Users accept that his and Lola's voicebanks digital sound, Leon's strongest aspect is that perfection is not necessary when creating a song using his voicebank. With much editing he can produce realistic sounding songs. Other users play on his robotic sounding voice, making no attempt to hide it. Leon also has been used in the most varied of ways amongst the Vocaloid era voicebanks and he has been shown to be a highly versitile Vocaloid.

Vocaloid Iroha Nekomura

Iroha Nekomura (猫村いろは Nekomura Iroha) is a collaboration between AH-Software and company Sanrio (a "kittyler" or someone who likes the Sanrio character Hello Kitty for the "Hello Kitty to Issho!" project) was announced in early August. She was released on October 22, 2010.

"Iroha" is the Japanese variant of "ABC" (as seen in the Japanese iroha poem). She is illustrated by okama.

Usage for Music
Iroha has a deep but solid voice, and while it does not give her a "little girl" feel like that of Yuki Kaai, she sounds more youthful than many of the other Vocaloids and shares the smoothness seen in many of the later Vocaloid 2 voicebanks. However, her voice has some of the same problems as Lola, in that her mature voice makes her voicebank sound less feminine then most other Vocaloids, giving her a voice that sounds "tomboyish".

Like Lily she owes much of her early use to being supplied as a trial version. Her trial version did not have as many reported problems as Lily's had and was a more closer representation of her final product then Lily's was.

Vocaloid VY1

VY1 (codenamed "MIZKI" in reference to hanamizuki, a type of flower) is the first of the VY series being developed by bplats. It was released in deluxe and standard editions on September 1, 2010.

Usage for Music
VY1 is intended for professional musicians and according to Yamaha intended to be a high quality voicebank. The concept behind the Vocaloid was that VY1 would be part of a series designed to set the standard by being a voicebank with no set gender, face or voice and would be a vocalist to complete any song. The voice itself is feminine and bares a slight accent that seperates the voicebank from other Vocaloids. This accent along with the high quality recording gives VY1 a smooth but sharp voice.VY1 was also reported to use a new method of handling the Vocaloid database to improve performance while still using only the Vocaloid 2 engine.

Vocaloid Hiyama Kiyoteru

Kiyoteru Hiyama (氷山キヨテル Hiyama Kiyoteru) is a Japanese Vocaloid released in December 4, 2009. He is developed by AH Software.

Usage for Music
He tends be used for pop and heavy metal/rock. His treble range is supposedly smooth, which allows for an easier usage of the higher octaves. He has the softest of the Vocaloid male voices within the Vocaloid 2 voicebanks. However, he is often not recommended for amateur users by other vocaloid fans as his voice can be difficult to work with sometimes.

Initally, many of Kiyoteru's early videos on Nico Nico Douga had comments accusing him of being too similar to Kaito, these comments over time shifted direction and another complaint followed; his voice is considered difficult to blend in with existing males. Although it is not entirely impossible to make him blend in, heavy editing may be needed as his voice tends to stand out when singing with other Vocaloids; he can, therefore, often serve better as a solo vocaloid than in a chorus.

(there's like a super hawt pic of him up there. >///<)

Vocaloid Kaai Yuki

Yuki Kaai (歌愛ユキ Kāi Yuki) is a Japanese Vocaloid released in December 4, 2009. She is developed by AH Software.

Usage for Music
She is designed to sing childrens songs and have an innocent, soft and cute voice. Her child-like voice makes her unique amongst the vocaloids and allows for a soft, sweet style of song.

VOCALOID Big-Al

Big-Al's announcement was made on January 21, 2007. A plugin version was released on the PowerFX site on December 22, 2009, with a DVD version that was available after Christmas.

Usage for Music
His voice was modeled after a Swedish rock vocalist. He had more keys recorded for him than Sweet Ann. Unlike Sweet Ann, Big Al is capable of 5 breathing phonemes as well as other phonemes that were not included in previous english Vocaloids but had in their Japanese counterparts. His timbre is comparably lower, rougher, and more "manly" than Leon’s and has replaced many of the traditional roles that Leon once used. His voice also has a noted Swedish accent that at times quite clear to hear, which gives him a unique sound against other male vocaloids or the other English Vocaloids.

Big-Al is typically geared for early-mid 20th century classic rock although he has been used for a wide variety of genres such as blues, disco and pop. He is also often used as backup singer for other vocaloids; his voice is used because it favors singing in the range (in classical music terms) bass to baritone. By using Big Al, music producers can broaden the vocal range of a group singing together, particularly the male vocaloids as before Big-Al's release none could reach as low as he could. He is capable of reaching higher octaves, however it is generally accepted that his voicebanks are more suited for the lower octaves than higher. Also, like Prima he is capable of being used effectively with limited Lyrics or no Lyrics.

Vocaloid Utatane Piko

Utatane Piko (開発コードPIKO 歌手音ピコ) is the first Vocaloid from Sony Music Distribution and will use the Vocaloid2 engine. [1] His name "Utatane" means "sound of singer" while "Piko" is the name of a popular Nico Nico Douga singer called Piko; in other words, his name means "sound of singer Piko". He will be released on December 8, 2010.

VOCALOID TONIO

Following on from the success of Vocaloid PRIMA, Zero-G announced a release date of February 2010 for Vocaloid TONIO, a brand-new plug-in virtual singer modelled on the voice of a professional male classical singer, and powered by Yamaha VOCALOID2 Singing Synthesis Technology.

Usage for Music
According to an interview[5] with Dom Keefe, Tonio has a range from baritone to Tenor and is intended to be a partner to Prima. He shares many properties with Prima as a result so many of the techniques that are used for Prima will also be possible or needed for Tonio. The difference between them is that Prima favors higher octaves, whereas Tonio favors the lower octaves.

Compared to the previous Male English Vocaloid, Big Al, Tonio has a stronger and more powerful voice overall then he does. However unlike Big Al, Tonio suffers from a slight gender problem, although this is not as bad as seen with Leon, he may need a small adjustment to the gender factor to make him sound masculine. Although both male Vocaloids share the common preference for the lower octaves, Tonio is the weaker at the very low end of the piano scale, but has a stronger medium range compared to Big Al.

His demos show him singing in languages such as Italian and Spanish, however he is a English Vocaloid and to make him sing in other languages like all Vocaloids this means spending time working with the phonetic system. As seen in his demos, due to his style of voice and his accent Tonio also is able to use the rolling note effect R on the Phonetic system to the greatest advantage of all the Vocaloids.
