Vocaloid

Hmmm... I guess now I'm kinda into this er... thing. It's not an anime series or movie, but it's still a japanese cartoon. It's kinda hard to explain... Well, there's this thing called Vocaloid.

From my understanding so far, It's a singing synthesizer application software that enables users to synthesize singing by just typing in lyrics. So I think the Yamaha Corporation makes up these characters, the twins, Rin and Len Kagimine, Miku and 2 more characters (who I'm not sure what they're names are o.o) to be the logo/ambassador of Vocaloid. Apparently, their themes are like this. Rin is a princess of a yellow kingdom, Miku rules the green kingdom, some girl warrior controls a red kingdom and finally, a handsome prince that rules the blue kingdom o.o" (pic, from left : Rin, Miku and Len)

Go google up 'Vocaloid' for more info

Watch it first if you want. It'll be hard to understand at first. I learned the story from compiling comments on Youtube.

Len's POV (The Servant of Evil) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwnyPIbt1BA&feature=related

So this is my synopsis (A.K.A SPOILER! If you haven't watch yet):

The background story from what I've understand so far is that, Rin and Len are twin brothers and sisters. But because of selfish adults, they were kinda seperated. Rin became a princess while Len is her servant. Apparently, Rin is an evil princess (who'd charge taxes high so she can solve her, not the kingdom,... her money problems). Len loves his sister very much though, and he'd do anything for her, that includes being an evil person.

Rin likes a Blue prince from the Blue Kingdom but unfortunately, he likes Miku from the Green Kingdom. So Rin gets her brother to 'remove' Miku and ruin her kingdom of Green. Although Len had fallen in love with Miku too, he went up to her with a knife. Miku likes Len too, not the Blue Prince. I don't know why, but Miku took the knife from Len and stabbed herself o.o". Oh, Len did destroy Miku's kingdom.

Soon, the prince of the Blue Kingdom and the warrior of the Red Kingdom was angry to hear what Rin had ordered. They sent armies to combine with the villagers of the Yellow Kingdom ( The villagers hate Rin's way of ruling anyways) to capture Rin.


Because Len loves his sis so much, he asked her to swap clothes with him. No one would notice since they were twins. So she did, and Len went as the princess to face the army. The army captured Len and the 'princess' is set to be beheaded at 3 in the afternoon the next day. The next day, Rin stands in the crowd (disguised as Len) and regretfully watch her brother get beheaded. His last words were 'Oh! Time for snack' as the clock strikes at 3 and he got beheaded. His last words were what his sis loves to say all the time. None of the villagers realized about the swap.

Yea, it's a sad story. Almost cried. This isn't a series. Just songs composed by fans I think. Also, the music videos are really fanmade. The songs are the storyline. You should go watch and hear it if you're really interested =)

* Still, I do not own any of the images posted. The first pic, I got it from a web. The others (pics of Rin) are screenshots of the Youtube animations made by fans.
