【ナノ（nano）】NANOIR 【Official Debut Album】

14 03 2012

As promised, I have more Utaite news for all those fans out there! Nano’s debut album ‘NANOIR’ officially goes on sale today! Most of you probably have never heard of Nano because up until about a year ago, she was virtually unknown throughout NND. Known for her strong, tomboyish voice, Nano grew up in New York City and as a result, speaks both Japanese and English fluently. Known for both her covers of Vocaloid and Avril Lavigne songs, Nano has made quite a name for herself in the utaite world.

In April, she will be singing the opening to the 2nd season of the anime Phi Brain.

NANOIR is currently available on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B006DUHQBM) and features popular Vocaloid songs such as ‘Just Be Friends’ and ‘Calc’ as well as her own original song called ‘Magenta’.

Here’s the promo video:

As a side note, this song makes me want snow. >.< Where’s the snow in the US?

[Fame] OST Cover [SuPearl]

2 03 2012

I have not posted anything in the past few days because I have been too obsessively watching the episodes of K-Pop Star, the show that Park Jimin and many other talented young men and women star on. So I decided that I couldn’t contain myself and that I just HAD to share this with everyone.

This is taken from either episode 8 or 9 (I can’t remember which) when all the contenders must form groups in order for casting. Lee Seungjoo (17), Park Jimin (15), Lee Jungmi (17), and Lee Michelle (21) formed a group known as SuPearl and completely astounded all the judges with their cover of Fame by Irene Cara.

Unfortunately, SuPearl was forced to disband right after this performance due to the judges feeling that it would be against the competition rules for the girls to stay together-no matter how amazingly talented they may be. They could still debut though!

Rolling in the Deep [Park Jimin Cover]

26 02 2012

Happy Sunday everyone!

Some of you might have seen this already as her video has gone viral in the past few weeks. In case you haven’t heard of Park Jimin, I’ll fill you in:

On South Korea’s SBS K-Pop Star, a fourteen year old girl named Park Jimin sang a stunning cover of Rolling in the Deep that astounded both the judges and the other contestants. Jimin, who is a full blood Korean, stole the spotlight away from all the other competitors and her name became known internationally. She says that her excellent English comes from attending an international school.

IA – Imagination Forest (想像フォレスト)

23 02 2012

These past few weeks, all I’ve done is watch IA steadily become one of the most popular VOCALOIDs out there. And she was only released a few weeks back. It’s almost unbelievable really, how quickly everyone has accepted her. Well, at least she sounds magnificent.

This song’s called Imagination Forest, and it’s rather hard to understand. It’s quite beautiful though.

Anime Spotlight: Another

21 02 2012

Hey guys, Night here! Happy Tuesday! Thought I might just share a new interesting anime with you.

One of the newer anime series this winter that started premiering on January 9th. Another is a strictly horror anime that details a certain high school class and the secrets that they would never dare talk about.

General Overview:

In the spring of 1998, Kouichi Sakakibara transfers to Yomiyama Kita Middle School. It doesn’t take him very long to realize that there’s something peculiar about class 3-3. Everyone’s afraid. Of who or what though, he doesn’t know.

While spending some time in the hospital for pneumothorax, Kouichi meets the mysterious but beautiful Mei Misaki, a student who is in the same class as he is. She goes to the basement, saying she must deliver something to her ‘other half’.

When Kouichi and Mei go back to school, Kouichi quickly realizes that no one seems to notice Mei, and no one seems to care about her. He asks his fellow classmates about the girl, but they tell him to stop “hanging out with something that doesn’t exist.”

Kouichi’s about to find out what happened to the class of 3-3. He’s about to find out the truth behind Mei Misaki. First though, he must survive in a world of murder and blood.

“Another” is a different sort of schoolyard horror mystery based on the original novel series.

General Reception:

As ‘Another’ has just premiered, it’s impossible to lay out defined reviews for the series. However, the general anime fandom seems rather satisfied with the series and calls it something that will always ‘keep you guessing’. Granted, the anime starts off with the usual ‘guy moves to weird little town and all these weird things start happening’ (Higurashi much, anyone?), but its Final Destination-esque feel and and brilliant artwork seems to make up for the slight cliches. It is currently ranked as an 8.15/10 on MAL and has a truly strong backing. Perhaps we’ll see this series go somewhere yet.

One of Repetition [96Neko Ver.]

19 02 2012

Guess what? I’m alive. And doing well as a matter of fact. So before Souza-san and everyone else starts scolding me, maybe I need to explain myself. I have one word for you all:

School.

That place is disastrous. Finals were over in January but I’m still not picking up the ball properly with my new classes. It took me forever to adjust and my grades are still sitting at a dismal B or B+.

But I am back, and I would like to apologize to everyone for being gone for so long. I’ll do my best to make it up!

Anyways, onto today’s post. I was exploring the daily Utattemita rankings on Nico Nico Douga and found this brilliant rendition of ‘One of Repetition’ by 96猫. It’s quite impressive if I do say so myself. Found a youtube link so that everyone can watch it even if you don’t have a NND account.
