Nico English Admin Summer Vacation: August 26-30th

August 23, 2013 4:25 AM
Greetings Nico'ers,

Your Nico English admin is going on a week-long trip to Hokkaido (an island north of mainland Japan) to get away from the hustle-bustle that is Tokyo city life and bask in a long overdue recharge.

How long I'll be away: August 26 - 30

Since the site is currently a one-man operation, I'm sorry to say that I won't be around to answer any customer service or SNS (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) inquiries during my absence.

Rest assured, however, that there are plenty of events going on that should keep you well entertained until my triumphant return. And who knows--I might even share some vacation pics. :)

Till then!

-Your Friendly Nico Admin

Happy 3rd Birthday, Lily! - August 25th

August 22, 2013 7:02 PM
Greetings and salutations, fellow Nico'ers!

It was three years ago on August 25, 2010 that Yuri Masuda (vocalist of the Japanese music group m.o.v.e) and YAMAHA created the golden-haired Vocaloid vixen we know as Lily today.

Lily.PNG Lily is a fan-favorite that, at release in 2010, one-upped Tonio and VY1. It's easy to see why--her voice beams with shades of personality thanks to her voice talent: Yuri Masuda.  
lilypic1.PNGIt's also worthy of mention that Lily is the first Vocaloid to appear in a commercial music video and the second Vocaloid to have her own Twitter account.

Well, that's enough background on Lily. I'm sure you, my esteemed reader, is no doubt in-the-know regarding Vocaloid trivia and info (and could definitely give me a run for my money.).

OK, so without further ado... *BIG BREATH*

Happy Birthday, Lily!!!

And here's to many more years of great vocals and fervent fans to depict you in the way we love!

Be sure to show support for Lily and comment on any videos you see! She'll thank you for it! ;)
