[Utada Hikaru] The 40th Thread

is there a way to turn avi into vob tho? it's much easier to burn vob than avi or sometimes iso..

[Keiichi_JPU]

Y'all should buy a DVD player that supports Divx, you can just place the video on the disc like you would copy it to a memory card. It'll change your life, trust me.

And otherwise Nero will probably do the job!

One question, though. If this is released on iTunes, what kind of file would it be? Would it be some strange copy-protected Apple file?

Because I wanna put it on an USB stick so I can play it on my Playstation 3, is that possible if I buy it on iTunes?

[ohsixthirty]

I thought iTunes stopped all that copy protection crap, but maybe not iTunes japan.

[nanakopy87]

LOL.its very easy to burn the files into DVD video format.just convert them to MPEG2,and then drag it to the dvd authoring software (i believe nero can support MPEG2 also).and then,you can proceed with burning the dvd or make a menu for you.


anyway,i begin to love hymne ,especially the clap hand part.can't wait to listen to my CD rip (which i believe will be at least a little better quality than this? )

Well... it'll definitely be released on the US and UK iTunes. I'm sure Japan will get it too, but she's tweeted about it in English and it'd be pointless to only release it for Japan.

I'm so looking forward to seeing this footage!! since she forgot about Canada

it depends on the dvd player.

the iso's I've been writing to disc play in mine...but I know they don't work in all.

I really think she's being kind of stupid to release it this way. They should just make a dumb dvd and release it like an official dvd. It'd sell tons.

[Picaflor 7/4]

well, can someone tweet her to release it on dvd? if ayu fans convinced max to release an ayu trance 4, after not having one for 7 years, I don't think it would hurt to hint to them that we would love a dvd.

[Polyrhythm]

A little something I did while "studying" for midterms. Its a bit sloppy but all in good fun.

Spoiler:

[Cherry Dynamite]

^ THAT LOOKS REALLY NICE

[bluegie]

Everything is so sparkling.. the booklet, the case, the discs..

I hate saying this, but has Hikki actually cared for her fans?

I can't remember her ever doing anything for her fans, or even expressing her love for us.

Or maybe I missed her big confession?

[emi♡]

lol yeah..so next time she comes on I'm gonna spam her again.

Any help is welcome.

I was surprised no one was spamming her about the tour in the first place. She wouldnt have even said anything!

Oh. But she will definitely know now that we want a physical dvd.

i think she responded "i love you too" to a fan during a concert who screamed "I LOVE YOU HIKKI" or something

Yeah, I remember this.
But she has no songs about her fans, and I don't remember her ever addressing them (I've been following her since First Love). She may have in some magazine interview though.

[JackieRos]

address her fans? maybe is not written in the contract ack ack.

what she could have done is say I'm taking a break and not release anything at all.
so yeah

[Picaflor 7/4]

^Or she could have just not said anything and went on hiatus for a few years and make us think she disappeared or died.

Final Distance is dedicated to a fan who died and wanted to be like utada when she grew up. That's something. :/ It's not like utada has to say anything. My parents would get pissed at me if I didn't say "hello" every time I walked in the house. they know I'm not trying to ignore them, but I don't feel like saying it every time. Why does utada have to say anything? It's not her style to be all open to the fans. It never was.

[Nackar_91]

To be honest, I don't even need a song written about "us fans". They tend to be overly sappy "THANK-YOU-OMFG" songs. XD

[JackieRos]

^ I agree

^Has this been discussed before in hikki's thread?

Anywayz I agree that it's not hikki's style to openly address her fans. All I need is new stuff from her . She can then hide for another half a decade and release something new by the time I hit 35... lol.

[ストロボ・EdGE]

Hikki seems like a cold and distant person at times. I've seen on TV shows like heyx3 that she laughs and smiles so idk how I've come to that conclusion...

With some artists like Ayu and Lady Gaga for instance there's practically a visible chain attaching them to their fans, but Hikki doesn't really seem to give a crap, haha.
