Good.

Considering how that industry treats pop idols, it's probably better that way, you know ?

Even so, Aimi doesn't hold a candle to the absolute queen of artificial singers, Hatsune Miku.

Hologram > CGI, and Hatsune just OWNS, at *any* format, not just J-pop, and in any language, up to and including english.
You doubt ?

(You FIND me a human singer who can manage that piece half as well.)

(And yes, despite it's somewhat artificial sound, I really do like her version of this: for reference, her program *has* no english variant, or at least did not at the time, so that's all done by hand and ear, cut/paste style.)

Poor Aimi doesn't stand a chance.

I thought Miley Cyrus was a computer-generated pop idol.

Might as well be.. pfftth!

Speakin of though - you ever consider jumping ship from Honda to Toyota, Mikey ?

Cause this caught my eye recently, meh heh.

I hear the car ain't half bad neither.

And just because it kinda reminds me of the Wash-Mustache thing around here...

Tempermental sort, she is.
