The latest animation called “K-ON!” created by The Kyoto Animation was pretty amazing. Can’t imagine how they can create that hi-quality animations. No wonder they’ve received respect from anime fans.

“K-ON!” was animation of high school students’ music life. Music is fun!

Switched to WordPress from MovableType

As promised with Matt, I did it finally and I’m testing with this post.

When I joined a WordCamp Kansai, I decided to switch but had to wait until this weekend to set up WordPress on my server.

WordCamp Kansai 2009 « messaliberty

Setting up WordPress itself was really easy and no boring steps. Cool. I’m blogging on WordPress here at messaliberty’s blog but installing and setting up process was very first expedience for me.

Switching was a bit hard. Had to fix some part of code, both of WordPress and MovableType. I wanna blog about how difficult to pull out all data from MovableType, though I’m tired now. Let me have a break.

Anyway, I need to say Thank You for Matt and all of WordPress community!

Miku HATSUNE’s songs now on sale

Miku HATSUNE’s CD album get a 2nd ranking of daily music chart.

Some of songs have already been released but finally my favorite “Melt” comes out. As I posted before at this Japanese blog post, I wanted to pay for the author of that song cos the song is awesome.

I didn’t know much about this album even there’re an additional booklet and DVD till I open an Amazon box.

Special booklet only for a first edition.

Of course the music itself was touched me. Yes I already heard most of songs at Nico Video before but I pleased with whole content.

CD album itself.

Everything inside this package are quality high enough to feel great.

Can you see this brilliant effect?

You should try this

What’s the next music generator?

The answer is this by Microsoft. Songsmith can generate a song for you. The commercial film which made by developers is completely different with what I expected. And look! It’s a MacBook Pro!

You know Miku HATSUNE? It’s a Japanese awesome song generator. But these two softwares have a different approach. Songsmith generates music it self but Miku HATSUNE generates a vocal part. This one reminds me how Japan and US are different.

Bad or Good day?

Spilled soup on myself when I ate lunch at my office then I had to take a shower and change clothes. Yes fortunately we have a shower room.

After that we had a brain storming session. At the very beginning of it, I spilled coke on my sketch book. Oops again. But the sketch book was awesome. Only one page passed away. The next page was ok even I kept a cup of coke on a previous page for a while.

Here is a proof.

KOKUYO did a great work!
