Module Prejoin - Day 2

(Noelle made this banner btw ♥)

Welcome to Day 2 of Module's prejoin!

Obviously, we're all here because we love Vocaloid... But what has your Vocaloid journey been like? Did you plumb the depths of Nicovideo in 2008? Watch the Kagerou Project anime in 2014 and wonder about the original? Catch Miku live on Letterman in 2022? What producers or videos got you hooked?

I'd love to hear your story with Vocaloid and its derivatives, no matter if you're a fresh face or an old hat. How you got started and what you're doing now, even the future of what you want Vocaloid to go. For answering this discussion question you will be rewarded five random cards and ten crystals.

All prejoin games will end August 17, 2025 at 11:59 PM EDT.

My best friend in middle school was into vocaloid before me. He used to give me one of his earbuds and show me all his favorite songs on his iPod during field trips. Senbonzakura was the first one I ever heard! I also very distinctly remember hearing Matryoshka and Juvenile for the first time that way. There was also this one song I loved that I've never been able to find since, it had Miku and Rin and Len and it was in Mandarin, I believe it was about spring snow or something? I remember searching through every song they had on vocaloid wiki at the time looking for it but could never find it. Anyway, that friend also taught me how to use youtube to mp3 converters, since this was the time before you could buy really any vocaloid songs on iTunes. I also got super into Kaito derivatives for a while, I followed the exploits of BloodyVocaloid and my favorites were Zeito and Nagaito. Oh, and utau, of course! Ryone Yami was always my favorite, it's a shame his creator has been the target of so much hate. Most of the covers I loved have disappeared as a result...but I still have a few saved on my ancient iPod!
