Miku-Musume invades the world. ^_^
ALL HAIL MIKU!
LONG LIVE MIKU!!!
"about damn time" is what i want to say... but then, normal society doesnt really keep up with trends from other nations...
みくばんざい!
Pedobear also approves. :3
Nah, she's too old
She'll always be 16 and dfc for you. What else could you wish for?
and Sega keeps removing more of her breasts on each game, so pedobear might consider it.
16 IS too old. Take the '1' out of there and then we're talking.
Also, who cares about dfc? Lolis are prepubescent, with face, body size and body structure abiding by this; however, tit size need not follow the rule. A flat chest doesn't make a loli, and a loli doesn't need such.
There's always Chibi Miku. Pedobaer can't say no to that.
Luka's still better. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NsdeumQqco&feature=related]
What category would Komoe from To Aru Majutsu no Index fit in, since she's older than Miku?
Komoe is a legal loli. Pedobaer might be confused, but hit it anyway.
HACHUNE MIKU!!!
DFC <3
Lolis can't be legal, nor should they. A loli should have the mind, knowledge and body of a small child - otherwise it's just a genetic freak, instead of an angel.
shes gonna be self aware, watch lol
The column mainly describes how the mascot of the vocal synthesizer software progressed on to becoming a huge hit in techno j-pop duly because the girl(Miku) portrays of a *young* fresh face and therefore attracted the attention of many otakus* around the world
...and so the vocaloid empire continues to expand it's territory from western europe to south america and is now poised to take north america who will surivive....
Just as Leeked...
Fear Mistress Miku's heavenly voice and delishush armpits..!
The Miku-Miku bacteria has now been spread around the world, infecting each and everyone of us. XD
lol, why is this anon downvoted?
did someone not get the reference?

People tend to not recognize obscure stuff. Here's a subbed version of the song, there's some fun lyrics (like at 2:00 ^_^).

ALL HAIL MIKU!!!!! :3
I can translate, but I'm working now.
Maybe later I translate.
not much too say to be honest. It talks about how famous she is in Japan. Then it shows a small interview with an Ecuadorian Otaku that explains what a vocaloid is. They talk about the program and idols. Finally they sum up making a comparison to Gorillaz (same concept but Miku is 100% digital).
Ill actually translate the last paragraph since it make me giggle:
"Idols are of great importance to the Japanese culture and the ability to virtualize them have facilitate the capacity to preserve them throw time, since they don't grow old or get tired of giving concerts"
At the very end it gives a description of the other Vocaloids.
"since they don't grow old or get tired of giving concerts"
THIS
- don't get tired of giving concerts - they should work on this
First spanish-english translation (always english-spanish) hope at least it be redeable:
"Vocaloid, famous artist that aren't flesh and bones"
Miku Hatsune is Idol-type artist from Japan. A pop star followed by
million of youths. a lends her voice for animation series songs.
She wear flashy costumes and had a particular high pitch.
The problem is that is impossible. No matter how much her fans want to get in touch with her. Hatsune doesn't exist
in the real wotld. She is what is known as a Vocaloid, a virtual idol.
Victor García is an Guayaquillean otaku (name given to the japanese animation fan) (Guayaquillean "those one from
Guayaquil"). He has followed the Vocaloid phenom very close and explains that it is an voice synthesizer software
caplade of "sing. "It was developed by Yamaha and sinthesizes songs simply writting lyrics and melody", comments
García.
Systems Engineer Mariano Rodriguez asserts that the software "provides the user the ability for synthing songs only
writting the lyrics and melody". Japanese company was looking for selling to the general public market and then is
when in 2007 Miku was born.
In the syntesize of adigital voice, with a preteen body, made by japanese artist Key, and a innocent personality"
Adds García. this features have turn all this Vocaloids in virtual idols that make some fans fall in love.
"The chance of falling in love with an "idoru", an electronic creation, could become, in a not far future, something
considered normal. In our days, real and virtual begin to mix" writes Sociologist Silvia Nieto on her publication
Virual Stars.
Miku Hatsune has published 10 CDs in various styules, like pop-tecno, ballad and even polka. Since year 2088 exists
collectable figures, postals, books and clothes. There alse are games, Like hatsune Miku: Proyect Diva, where the player is some kind of manager of this virtual star. By the end of macrh, current year, her fans could assist to the first concert from a virtual character in Tokyo, which sold 2.500 tickets.
Meanwhile there are lots who asserts that it isn´t entirely true, because Gorillaz had already given a concert with that feature, Miku's character is the first having it own virtual voice, instead Gorillaz presents voices from real artist, included vocalist from britpop band Blur
Idols are a important part of japanese society, and the idea of virtual idols has provided the ability to perpetuate them in time, because they don't get aged nor get tired of giving concerts.
Miku es tu mai!!!!, saludos desde Puerto Rico
Ea, Puerto Rico es la que hay. Jamas pense ver un boricua aqui. ;)
YEY MIKU-SAMA!
GO ON, FILL THE WORLD WITH YOUR KAWAII VIRTUAL VOICE!
Soon everyone will know Vocaloid, even in the end of the world where i live, and then i will sing Vocaloid songs without been beaten to death...
As much as I love Miku, I hope they do an entire concert with one of her spinoff characters. That'd be a trip.
same as this
http://itaotaku.wordpress.com/
Its not saying nothing that we haven't heard before... '' its a virtual thing blablabla''
Learn Spanish Knives
Ok, Here i made some-kind of a translation.
(This isn't perfect and made on-the-go, so don't be to harsh on me, thanks ^^)
Miku Hatsune is an idol artist in Japan. This means, she’s a pop star followed by millions of youngsters, and she borrows her voice for musical themes of animated series. She dresses her up with astonishing costumes and has a particularly acute voice. Selling millions in merchandising, filling up enormous coliseums for her concerts and thousands would love to met her, touch her and even hug her.
The problem relays in this being impossible. It doesn’t matter how much her fans would like to have some kind of contact with her, they will never be, because Miku Hatsune doesn’t exist in the real world. This is known as a Vocaloid, a virtual idol.
Victor Garcia is an otaku (name given to the fanatic of Japanese animation) Guayaquileño (http://bit.ly/dvVGZL). He has been following really closely the “vocaloid” effect and he explains this is a software created for making a synthesis of voice with the ability of “singing”. “It was developed by Yamaha and synthesizes songs just by writing the lyrics and the melody”, Garcia explains.
Mariano Rodriguez, a Systems Engineer, affirms that the software “allows the user the ability to synthesize songs by just writing lyrics and the melody”. The Japanese company was looking a way to publicize it to the general public, and that’s how in 2007 Miku was born.
“The possibility to fall in love with a (male or female) idol, a electronic creation, can become, in a not-so-long-future, as being considered as something normal. In our days, what’s real an what’s virtual starts to mix”, expresses in the publishing Estrellas Virtuales (Virtual Stars) Silva Nieto, sociologist. Miku Hatsune has published 10 albums in a wide variety of styles, like pop techno, romantic ballads and even polkas. Since 2008 have existed collective figures, postcards, books and underwear. There’s also videogames, like Hatsune Miku: Project Diva, where the user is some kind of a manager of this virtual star. By the ends of [this year] March, her fans could assist to the first concert of a Virtual Character in Tokyo, where the sales for the entrance summed up to 2500 tickets.
Although there are lots who assure this isn’t quite true, as Gorillaz has already given this kind of spectacle, Miku’s character is the first one to have her own virtual voice, while Gorillaz represents the voices of real artist, including the vocalist of the Britpop Blur band.
The idols are an important part of Japanese society and the idea of virtual idosl has facilitated the ability to perpetuate them in time, as they doesn’t grow old nor they get tired of giving concerts.

Is it Spanish?
no its Ecuadorian, just like everyone else has their own language...
on a side note: its only a matter of time before we all follow miku's order :)
Can't tell if you're being serious or trolling...
i talk spanish and i don't understand some words or expression from other spanish speaking countries because they had some other kind of natives (spanish didn't kill em ALL) and words from the native mixed with spanish so in most parts of america is kind of different
In South america, 97% of the countries speak spanish. However, we all have very little differences in our words and accents. Some words mean other stuff in other countries, but we have the same core.
It's kinda like USA English and GB English, same core language with a few differences.
If you are from spain, is natural to not understand some words, because, ass you know, latinoamerican spanish y far diferent from what spain call, "Catellano"
Formal Spanish from Latinoamerica is not very different from Spain's... Just the accent is different and, of course, some words or modisms (don't know if that's the word in english to describe it)...
To Anon @ 00:19 its Castellano
Anyway i hope mexico is the next one to fall to the miku =D
(even though i like gumi more D8)
Actually the biggest country in Latin America doesn't speak spanish. I believe you can fit more than a couple dozen Equadors in Brazil.
He said 97% of the countries, not the population.
So yeah, it's pretty much that.
Yea, she's slowly turning into Sharon Apple.
Yup, spanish.
Sorry, Mickey Mouse. Miku is slowly tearing down your world domination.
Mickey...what ?
Didn't Mario do that, already?
oh hell yeah! i'd ride Miku in uhh.. 'Mikuland'? 'Hatsune World'?
I'd ride Miku anywhere.
