Japanese Pop Star Draws Crowds Despite Being a Hologram

[Madara XIII]

Oh god... the crowd have glowing spring onions... I think i need a lie down....

Pffft BWAHAHAHAAH you serious!?!? Spring Onions!?!?

Oh Jesus!! Man you should lie down definitely, I might have to hide the heavy weaponry till then...

Yep, watch this clip. Clear as say.



Dammit it need to lie down again, i don't have the consitution to deal with this. Hatsune Miku (bad enough on it's own) + hologram + Unironic crowd ecstasy + Glowing spring onions = WHATTHEFUCKIDONTEVEN **Head Aspolde**

Damit Japan! Why do you have to keep blowing my mind!


Edit; THEY ARE GOING THIS CRAZY FOR A VEGITABLE JUICE ADVERT!? iM.... ARR.... ERRMMMM... **Boom**

Eeesh, I mean I can understand the Gorillaz doing Holograms of themselves at first mainly due to the fact they wanted to keep the Iconic image for awhile, but this.....*sobs* Japan....why you so scary!?!?

 

[metal eslaved]

just one quote from a game represent why i feel we should with the people at that concert

BURN THE HERETIC,KILL THE MUTANT,PURGE THE UNCLEAN

Between dating sims, dancing female robots, and holographic pop stars, the average Japanese woman is going to have an even harder time trying to find love. Japan seems pretty dedicated to replacing woman with electronic devices.

but since most women(not just japan, around the world) are the most shallow creatures in the world, they probably wont care unless the good looking ones go away as well

Pop band being holograms?

Thank you Mr. Tayler for devining this 10 years ago!

Also, read the entire webcomic. It will take you a while, but it is super worth it, and don't mind the early art, it gets better, I promise.

Go back another 4 years. William Gibson hit this with Idoru [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idoru].

William Gibson is possibly my favourite technological fiction writer. Love him.

Also, I don't think I know a single person who wouldn't love to see this live. Holograms. Holy crap.

Somehow, I'm seeing a possible Macross tie-in.

As do I.


A story about a boy, going through 'teh pubes' and a girl made of 1's and 0's.

By saving the world from devastation,
Uniting all peoples with in the nations.

Denouncing the evils of untruth and hate,
Fighting against their fate.

Extending their reaches to the stars above,
All with a song, made out of love.

I am at a complete loss of words...

Just wondering but is that something you made up or is that from something? It sounds interesting.

I wasn't 'freaking out' so much as after I re-read my post I realized how much I geek'd out.

Heh...I need a life.

Sorry for butting in, I was just passing through, and saw what you asked >.>
It is meant to be a leek, not a spring onion :3

Second line, something about holding a leek.

It's Japan...I mean, seriously, Rule 34 was Rule 34 in Japan before the internet was even conceived by Al Gore.

They have some of the weirdest stuff, at least from a western perspective.
'Spring Onion Glow Sticks' are even in the top 500.

[The Lunatic]

Well, that was annoying to watch.

I know everyone has to right to enjoy themself no matter how but I still find it strange that they would pay good money to watch what is pretty much a projection onto a pane of glass.
