It's Vocaloid Time
Haven't updated in a while so its time to play some vocaloid.
40 meter's new GUMI piece. Kind of tranquil and folk-like. A nice addition. Not terribly catchy but a good enough melody to go along and listen to.
The title "晴れのち桜" seems something like a light type of plant. Don't quite recognize the second kanji though. As expect, google says its "sakura"!!!!!
This one I cheated, and looked up the google translation first. :V I thought it was something like "metal" but apparently its actually "Meteor"... which fits when you watch the PV of the song.
Oh, and its 8 minutes long. Yes, 8 minutes long, as everyone on the comments are scrolling about.
Speaking of comments, one thing I thought was really cool about this video is suddenly the direction of the comments changed, and they were suddenly given pastel rainbow colors. WOAH. I thought at first it was the video's effects, but apparently you can customize your video to do that with comments! Spiffy!

Heartcatch Precure (Unfinished)
This is very likely a spoiler so if you intend to watch and you're not around half done with the series yet, maybe you should skip.
With that being said,
Cure Sunshine is the greatest anomality in magical girls. I have never met a character so mind-bending defying -- even considering Nadeshiko/Nadehiko from Shugo Chara, this one... defies all my expectations. The weird thing is, thinking it from a normal perspective, its a perfectly fine, but...
WHEN SHE TRANSFORMS, SHE'S SO GIRLY. HER COSTUME IS GIRLY. ITS THE EPITOME OF A CUTE GIRL.
BUT.
SHE ACTS. SO. MANLY. OTL. Like even in shugo chara, when nadeshiko is nadeshiko he acts like a girl, but as Nadehiko he is a guy through and through. That's fine. Appearance matches personality.
This, for whatever reason, is not. Cure Sunshine... is way too manly in her actions, and way too girly in her appearance and transform/finisher. AAAAAH IT HURTS MY HEAD IT HURTS MY HEAD. TWO IMAGES THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER COME TOGETHER SOMEHOW DID, AND IT'S CAUSING PAIN IN MY STEREOTYPICAL PERCEPTION OF THINGS, AAAAH MY GOD

Mr. Music
A vocaloid song where everyone (well, most of the japanese female VOCALOID2 + Len lol len) sings. The song is mellow and I only find it so-so in terms of melody (although I think in quality its not bad at all), but the video is really cute.
So vocaloid aside there was an earthquake. Things happening like these makes me think how in a lot of these cases the day before everything was going along normal just as it is here where I live right now, but then the next day everything changes in a flash. Well, there's always that chance of happening. Can't say much about it other than I hope everyone over there is ok.
LA might be next! Although my sister, who's taking a geology class right now, says its seemingly unlikely.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica (unfinished)
IMPRESSIONS. MAYBE IS CONSIDERED SPOILER. I would have, but others probably wouldn't. :V
Focus Question/Purpose: How in the world did Madoka get so much hype?
Methods: Watch several episodes of Madoka, even though the series hasn't even completed yet.
Results:
Episode 1: Interesting style, but not new. Reminiscent of Hidamari sketch in both the artwork and abstraction. Trapeze also had similar abstraction. Strong zettai ryouiki vibes. Still no strong evidence for being overhyped. :/
Episode 2: The Mami character is pretty cool. Otherwise all characters seem pretty mediocre, plot is suspenseful but not really seemingly original. That stuffed animal is creepy. Still seems overhyped.
Episode 3: More fighting, more of the same. Fight scenes are pretty cool, but that's not really unique either, not to mention art quality dro-- *approaches end* wait. huh. er. um. hmm. umm... hmm. ah-- hmm. Well f**k. :V
CONCLUSION: ...:V
