The Day of the Hammer Cometh
Written by Jeshii on 2009.06.11 – 23:45 -Welcome to June 11th everyone. It has already been one month since the last ハンマーの日 (hammaa no hi). Last time, １代目 (ichidaime) said it was his last hammer video. At the same time, ２代目 showed up with ham-maaaarch・∀・. But still, would ハンマーの日 come again?
I’m happy to report, ハンマーの日 came without any problems. Yes, １代目 seems to be gone, but the hammer lives on.
２代目‘s new work is a Hammer version of the 初音ミク (Hatsune Miku) song ぽっぴっぽー. It really reflects ２代目’s colorful sensibilities.
Hoho, what’s this? ハンマーの日 has some other videos?!
Yes, another hammer version of ぽっぴっぽー, uploaded a mere 8 minutes later. We have concluded that this must be ２代目’s 嫁 (yome) since there is no other way they could have known. Thus, we also have the wedding ceremony below:
３代目!!!!

【ニコニコ動画】恋色ファイナルハンマースパーク
Yes, 3代目 of the conservative school of hammerism came up with this double punch. It is a 東方 (touhou) based work based on 恋色マスタースパーク. The first one recalls the early days of hammeristic design, and the second brings us back to the present. I fine show indeed.
The school is Hammer is getting rather crowded. For the rest of the line, please see after the jump.

Nanairo no Nico Nico Douga
Written by Jeshii on 2009.06.11 – 00:30 -
【ニコニコ動画】七色のニコニコ動画
It’s here. After a slew of imitators, the true successor to the ニコニコ流星群 is here. Yes, my friends, right now, NicoDou is celebrating the release of the next megamix. 七色のニコニコ動画 (Nanairo no NicoNicoDouga) is here.
This is my first real megamix since getting into NicoDou hardcore. I love the 流星群, since that gave me the jump start I needed to get into in the first place, but this one… It is like a summary of my last year of NicoLife. I’ve featured a number of these songs on the blog over the last year, although not all of them! Can you believe that this blog will be one whole year old in just over 2 months?! WTF.
I have a list of the songs after the jump, minus the HEROES section (the section of chaos from 9:40 to 11:10) since really you could just go to the 流星群 for those songs. If you are a experienced ニコ厨 (NicoChuu), listen to it before you check the list below. See how many you recognize! If you are new to NicoDou, this is a great way to catch up! XD
(BTW, as for the English name, I would call it Rainbow Colored NicoNicoDouga if I were in charge, but a few places seem to already be translating it as “7 Colors of Nico Nico Douga.” I hate translation. 日本語バンザイ！ Oh, and as always, if you don’t have a NicoDou account, why not?!)

METAL of CIRNO
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.21 – 22:03 -
【ニコニコ動画】【チルノのパーフェクトさんすう教室をメタル（ｒｙ】を歌ってみた。
I can’t stop listening to this song. Basically, some one did a metal arrangement for チルノのパーフェクトさんすう教室. This version is a vocal version done by Gero. It’s amazing. I really can’t stop listening to it. Makes we want to do this in karaoke so bad. XD
More metal Ⅸ after the jump.

Legend of Hammer
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.12 – 01:12 -
Today is this month’s Hammer Day. The entry for this month is an amazing reprise of ナイト・オブ・ナイツ. But, the comment says it will be the last one. This episode even is pretty nostalgic feeling, as it is a better version of the first one, so it could be true. The Hammer is a tricky one, so it is hard to say for sure. There is even talk of a Second Generation of Hammer. I guess we can only tell for sure on June 11th…
If you aren’t familiar with Hammer Day, it is the 11th of every month. On Hammer Day, there is a new Hammer video that is uploaded. The entries up until now are after the jump.

【ニコニコ動画】【速報】 草彅剛 全裸でグルメレースを試み逮捕
Media circus is a go! SMAP member, 草彅剛 (Kusanagi Tsuyoshi) was arrested for being naked in public after a night at the bar. First off, I totally feel for the guy. Who hasn’t drunk too much and ended up naked in a park? I know I have.
Anyway, NicoDou is aflame at the moment with Tsuyoshi ⅹ はっぱ隊 (Happa-tai) or 兄貴 (Aniki) MADs. The media and government are like “BAD,” but it seems like most everyone on ニコ動 is pretty forgiving. But MAD-wise, it’s gonna be crazy over the next few weeks I’m sure, but here’s what I’ve got for you to start off, after the jump.
Oh, and his quote is priceless: 裸だったら、何が悪い！ (Hadaka dattara, nani ga warui! “What’s wrong with being naked?”) Amen.

What any of this has to do with the Tartar Straight, I’ll never know.
Written by Jeshii on 2009.04.22 – 23:05 -鳥羽一郎 (Toba Ichirou) has an 演歌 (enka) song called 「韃靼海峡」 (“Dattan Kaikyou“). It’s just another 演歌 song you’d never thing twice about… that is, unless someone at NicoDou gets their hands on it…
He’s no IKZO, but I ワロタｗｗｗ.

Utada Mini-Tour in LA, Miami, and New York
Written by Jeshii on 2009.03.24 – 02:02 -
OMG, I hate my life sometimes. I just heard that 宇多田ヒカル (Utada Hikaru) is doing a little mini-tour/listening session thing for “This Is The One” in 3 US cities. If it was in San Fransisco, I would sadly just justify not being able to go, but that fact that the 3 cities are Miami, New York, and LA (at the Sephora store in Hollywood, which is in LA for those who don’t know), I really want to go. BUT I am working until 8 pm this whole week, and the LA event is March 24th from 6pm-8pm.
Of all the stupid timing…
Go RSVP for the event on the facebook page.

Telepathy, Telepathy
Written by Jeshii on 2009.03.20 – 11:56 -This is the cutest song and music video I’ve seen in a long while. I guess it could also be seen as scary, depending on if you can be scared by cute little black and white cartoons. The story of the girls who suddenly get telepathic and find out that they are all dating the same guy is flipping awesome. If you understand Japanese, please watch the NicoNicoDouga version. Embedded here is the YouTube version with awesomely awkward subtitles. I wouldn’t have translated it this way, but at the same time, there is art in this translation.

Cirno isn’t stupid, she’s just special!

【ニコニコ動画】チルミルチルノPV 恋のミクル伝説/おてんば恋娘 H.264高画質 (Short animated version)
【ニコニコ動画】C.M.C F (Full version of the song, minus animation)
Man, I dunno what is in the air recently, but there is a lot of チルノ (Chiruno) videos going around recently. Figured I’d update ya’ll on some of them, after the jump! The one above seems to be from a non-IOSYS version of the チルノ song, おてんば恋娘 (otemba koimusume). The thing that is the clincher on this one is that チルミル is a baby formula with DHA, to make them smarter… pimped by Cirno, known to be the バカ⑨ of the 東方 universe. Then there is something about her eating frogs… Don’t make me explain everything! XD (Okay, that’s based on the whole things where she freezes frogs when she’s bored… there, I’m done.)

New Perfume Single! One Room Disco!
Written by Jeshii on 2009.03.13 – 01:37 -
【ニコニコ動画】アイドルマスター ワンルーム･ディスコ(RADIO EDIT)
I was starting to think Perfume had disappeared off the face of the earth after their disappointing 紅白 (kouhaku) performance. (Side note: it was a fine performance as Perfume performances go, but I still think the red team did lost partially because they had a lip-syncing group on the SINGING performance show.)
But they are back! If I had been paying attention to sites like Perfume City, I’d have known they were working on something new! Their new single, scheduled for release on March 25th (1 day before my birthday; what a nice present). It’s a cute little song called ワンルーム・ディスコ (wanruumu disuko) about the trials and tribulations of living on your own.
Anyway, it’s cute and technopop and I’m already hooked.
What’s that? Where did I find out about it? Um… nowhere in particular. What? No, of course I wasn’t because of Danny Choo entry a dannychoo.com news entry. He’s my mortal enemy! I would never be caught dead anywhere near his site. Not even if he linked one of my entries. No, sir, that’s definitely not where I found it.
Update: lol, I’m 馬鹿 (baka). It wasn’t the guy himself, it was just a forum user on dannychoo.com posting his own topic. So yes, that is where I got it. 
Update2: There’s a new video that is a remix of the song done with none of the original track and the voices are all vocaloid! Nice!
