But aside from that, I don't get the fandom as a whole let alone the shipping.

To be honest, I only ship in Vocaloid for the porn, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's most of the shipping fandom. Others may ship for a certain video but not in another, since each video is a different canon. I don't do that, but I've seen a few of those type of fics around. (Also, sorry for the angry icon, it's the only Vocaloid one I have ^^;)

Isn't 99% of all shipping is for porn?

[identity profile] lumati.livejournal.com 2010-12-30 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Fuck, are you telling me that I'm doing it wrong, anon? Porn and the like hardly ever factors into my shipping.

[identity profile] mature.livejournal.com 2010-12-30 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Au contraire!

There are quite a few ships I sail with which I would happily enjoy hand-holding fluff but if I found porn of said pairings I'd probably run for the hills. *coughcoughJackBroscough*

If you look at the large amount of fics that don't have porn in them, you'll see that's not true. I don't even like porn for some of my ships- Sherlock Holmes is asexual but still like reading about him in a romance with John Watson.

Certainly not!

Plenty of shippers don't care much at all about that sort of thing... they're often in it for the romance and other relationship aspects, really.

I honestly ship Kaito/Meiko pretty much across the board, but I think that's because visually I think they look good near each other combined with the fact that I think their voices blend well. Not to mention that ridiculous and dorky video about Kaito proposing to Meiko I've seen several times now.

(Anonymous) 2010-12-30 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahahahah that is the best video! Props to your good taste. :)

[identity profile] lumati.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
I love that video! Friends that I show it to do too. Glad to see you like it as well. :)

Oh! If you haven't seen it yet? There's this adorably fluffy video out there of a duet by Kaito and Meiko. It's like... Turning our memories to wings or something like that? It's fluffy and full of so much cute. I've yet to see anything for those two quite like it.

It's kind of funny; because I'm into hanafuda (long story) I stumbled across Hachi-hachi Flowery Battle of Kagamines. I went nuts looking for info and was disappointed to find out it wasn't just some cover of an OP of some existing anime, and also discovered there were more Vocaloids out there than Miku. And speaking of Miku, now I've found out about Hold, Release; Rakshasa & Carcasses which is creepy and fun and uses even more hanafuda images in the video.

And dammit, now this secret and the current discussion has me looking over the wiki and getting intrigued. I DON'T NEED ANY MORE CRAP TO GET INTO.

...Recs?

I'd recommend checking out some of the other creepy Vocaloid songs; even if you don't end up liking them, they're a must for new fans just because of the :O factor. So of those: Alice Human Sacrifice, Dark Woods Circus (which is part of a series of songs; it's kind of like a whole telling of a story by piecing several songs together, but that song is the most popular), Circle You, Circle You, Tower of Sunz by Miku, Sousei no Uta by Rin, and Heaven's Door by Luka.

Also, these aren't exactly creepy, but if you liked Rakshasha & Carcasses, I'd recommend Matryoshka by Miku & Gumi and Mrs. Pumpkin's Comical Dream by Miku.

I'll take a look at those, thanks! They actually sound pretty spiffy.

Recs! :D

Vocaloid Wiki to the rescue! They have a list of notable songs for pretty much all the Vocaloids: http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Notable_Songs_by_Vocaloid

And for songs that I would specifically mention:
Do you know the story of evil by the Kagamines? Five songs (more or less, there's a lot of songs made by other producers) which tells the story about the evil princess Rin and her servant Len. The first one is Daughter of Evil, the second one is Servant of Evil, third one is Message of Regret and fourth one is Re.Birthday (or something like that, I'm going from memory XD) The first and third are sung by Rin and the second and fourth are sung by Len. The fifth is song is called Daughter of White and is sung by Haku.

Another really good song by the twins is Revolution. The Japanese name is Gekokujou. Really good and really catchy. Kinda like rap, but I bet someone who knows anything about rap would say it's completely different. XD

With Miku you really need to know World is Mine (a song about a tsundere), Love is War (which is just badass), Po Pi Po (an add for vegetable juice) and Miku Miku ni shite ageru (It's apparently her theme song, but I think the others here are more well known to outsiders. I think. Maybe) Other really good songs include Triple Baka, MONOKURO Blue Sky and Joker.

And now to my favourite Vocaloid! Gumi Megpoid! She sounds a lot more realistic than the rest (though I haven't paid much attention to the appends, which may have decreased the difference). She hasn't been around for as long as Miku or the twins, so there are fewer good songs, but the good songs are awesome. First we have Coward Montblanc, which is about this girl who's unsure about her relationship with her boyfriend, but more importantly the music is good. :D Mosaic Roll (which you will see spelled in a lot of different ways) is also an awesome song. It's made by the same guy who made Coward Montblac and everyone's pretty sure that there's a connection between the two songs, but as far as I know, it hasn't been proved. Against is also awesome. She also has songs like Sorry to you, Sorry for being a closet otaku and Atai. (It means something like "I want to see you again", but I'm not entirely sure. XD)

Also! Alice Human Sacrifice by Meiko, Kaito, Miku and the twins. The Vocaloids arrive in Wonderland and do evil things to each other and the inhabitants. Bad explanation, though. XD Sorry.

There are more good songs, but I'm probably running out of space here. XD

Re: Recs! :D

[identity profile] mature.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
Thank ya, I'll check those out. (I know of Po Pi Po mainly through a Touhou video made for the song with Tewi the Inaba Rabbit and Reisen the Lunarian Rabbit. XD;)
