Hatsune Miku in Nokia Advertisement

Author: Chong Mizunaga
09 25th, 2008

Was just watching Astro at a relative’s place last Sunday, when I saw this Nokia advert.

So, what’s so special about this advert?

Well, the concept of the advert is certainly interesting, but that’s not I want to point out. When you were watching the advert, did you listen carefully to the first song? If you did, you might have recognized the voice…

Can you guess who it is?

Well, it’s none other than Hatsune Miku! ^^

The advert is Chinese (though I first saw the English ver), but it’s a Japanese song. The song is specially made for the advert, so, unfortunately, it might be hard (or impossible) to find an mp3 of it.

The phone being advertised is the Nokia 5310.

When I first saw the ad on TV, I was all, “Wait.. ZOMG IS THAT MIKU I HEAR?!” ^^;

BTW- if you liked the ad, there’s also another one like it, but without any Miku-goodness in it. Check that other ad out here.

EDIT: Okay. I shall be honest about this- I have no solid proof that it’s Miku, but a lot of people agree that it’s her. But, whether you believe it’s Miku or not, it’s up to you to decide. ^^



Veoh Blocks Malaysia

Video streaming site, Veoh.com, has blocked Malaysia just today.

The truth is, I already foresaw this. A few days ago, was browsing Veoh, when suddenly that same message popped up. A quick refresh, then the site said it was going under maintenance. Another quick refresh, and I was back at Veoh. I thought it might’ve been a glitch, but was highly doubtful of that.


Today, my doubts proved true, and no number of refreshes could remove that dreadful message from my screen.

This means we Malaysian otaku have one less source of streaming anime, but that’s okay. After all, we have other sources.

BTW- I dunno if it’s true for the latest client of VeohTV or not, but my version of VeohTV Beta can still search for and download anime from Veoh.com (LOL).

Human Games

Remember once when I posted about human art? Recently took a glance at the 2007 YouTube video awards, and saw the first place winner for the “Creative” catagory- Human tetris.

I must say, it’s impressive- both the final product and the work they go through.

Here’s another video- Human Space Invaders.

Another- Human Pong.

Pole position.

I remember playing all of those games before (of course, not with people), but didn’t know the names of some of them (like pole position and pong). They’re retro (old) games, but are timeless- that is, they can still be fun anytime. I’d say tetris is the most popular among those games though- never really liked tetris, but love pole position.

Anyone else here who used to/still enjoy these old-school games?

BTW- Human tetris might have won the first place title for creative, but I surely know this is the true winner. (lol)



Dead Fantasy

Was on comrade Zyg`’s site, and read a post about Dead Fantasy.

Had never heard of Dead Fantasy prior to reading that post, and was a little skeptical as to whether it was as great as Zyg` seemed to make it to be.

Nevertheless, I watched the said Dead Fantasy, and I have to say, to call it anything short of beyond legendary would be lying ^^;

This is exactly the kind of action that’s missing in anime today.

Here are the said videos, but if you’re having trouble loading them, you can also head to the original site it was hosted on (Gametrailers.com).

Remember kendo that I was talking about yesterday? Here’s an interesting invention for kendo.

I’ve no idea how it functions, but seems to be working quite coolly.

BTW- Tomorrow’s a public holiday, but I’ll still be working. Sob…



Taking off Clothes Quickly

So, I’ve asked you how fast you can fold up your clothes, now I’m going to ask you, “how fast can you take off your clothes?”

This guy can do it in two seconds.

Have tried some crazy methods to take of certain clothes before (like wearing two shirts and taking off the inner layer without taking off the outer layer), but have never tried this before.

Anyone can do it? ^^;

BTW- My #1 fan and dear irreplaceable sister, Phoebe, says hi. ^^



Folding T-Shirts Quickly

How fast can you fold your clothes?

This lady teaches us how to fold a t-shirt in about… 2 seconds.

Had found this method highly useful (very quick, and very easy) back when I first watched it, but I kept forgetting how to do it, and ’twas quite annoying to keep going back to watch the video.

Did you already know this method? If you do, are you using it?

Speaking about clothes.. I better go fold mine now.

Speaking of Britney, how many of you have heard of Chris Crocker? He’s a superfan of Britney, and is quite well known ^^;

Is he truly a fan? or is he just being funny?

Check out more of his videos here.

Would you do that for your favorite singer/band? ^^;
