I... I... My life is changed.

Postby Chaukai » July 2nd, 2011, 10:31 pm

So. Today. For two hours. I watched. Vocaloid. Hatsune Miku. Ren. Riku. Luka. Omfg it was... Omfg. Words cannot... Oh my god.

I think the video is nothing compared to what I experienced. Hundreds of fans, in one room, all cheering for not just Hatsune Miku, but their own hard work, and yes, it was THEIR own work. The entire audience, was like... In sync, and it just seemed as if everyone connected with the show. It was fantastic. The thing that really bugged me out was that, even though I was on the third floor, I felt like Miku was specifically dancing towards me. Yes, I know it sounds narcissistic, but I'm saying, something about it made it seem like each individual person was important. Oh my gosh. The first time in America, and they did it. It was FANTASTIC. It was breathtaking. Glow sticks everywhere, all in unison, the fans were just completely awed. It was amazing.

The song choice was fantastic. New songs as well as older songs, and Miku had much more costumes this time than last time. It was an excellent choice, and she even added a medley in the middle. It was great. I just wanted to share my experience. I love this place. Anime Expo is definitely one of the best places I've ever been to. As I'm still on day one, I still have much to do, (each booth seems like it's wanting to snatch my wallet, with all it's merchandise,) and I plan to take many pictures.

I've gotten almost a hundred pictures now. I've found a few Puella Magi Madoka cosplayers, a LOT of Vocaloid cosplayers, and I've also been hunting for Touhou characters, which, while they aren't they BEST, I've found some. Anyways, more pictures, more adventures tomorrow, hopefully I'll get an album signed by Kalafina, but yeah, pictures will be up when I return on Monday!

Sounds awesome. Hope you have a barrel of fun, Chau. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I'm not there. AT ALL.
Still, must be awesome. Can't wait to see you back with an empty wallet though. Heh.

THE CREED: Nothing is True. Everything is Permitted.
"...That's rather cynical."

"It would be if it were doctrine, but it is merely an observation of the nature of reality.
To say that Nothing is True is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shephards of our own civilization.
To say that Everything is Permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with the consequences, whether glorious...or tragic."
-Ezio Auditore da Firenze explaining the Creed, 1514, Masayaf.

Wow, wish I was there. It sounds like, well, in Ridder's words, a barrel of fun. Be sure to fill your camera with a bunch of pictures!

I would have watched it but
a) obviously I have to be in Germany so no live stuff. :I
b) couldn't watch the stream since it was about 3AM :I

Meh, gotta wait for the YouTube uploads. Judging from the videos of the older concerts, it sounds like an awesome atmosphere.

Well I took a few glances at the TV screen, (They had two giant ones in the concert that showed the stream) and from what I saw, we looked pretty similar with the other concerts. Well, I'm done with AX now, and I bought oodles of expensive stuff. Lol. I got a ton of wallpapers, all original, which look shiny and nice. It was definitely a really fun time. I also went to a touhou panel and learned a lot about it. It was... Great. Really. You guys should totally go next year, and then meet up with me and have a party. :3

Ohai guys, I found something neat, the list of all songs played over there.

I wonder why they replaced Melt. Sure, First Sound's good too, but Melt is one of the most famous songs. Well, I like most of these songs (especially Meltdown and SPiCa) so I don't care about that one missing.
Thogh I still think Deep Sea Girl should be added. :awe:

There's mostly Cosplay, but the very first one is all the merchandise I bought, and, I remember calculating, was around 240$. Yeah...
