The bash was held at Velours in Omotesando - rather snazzy venue. Outside they had this itasha YouTube wagon.
The main reason for the party was to thank the users who generated the most viewed content for YouTube Japan. We also met up with the folks behind Nike Akibaman and Vending Machine Red.
The entrance greeted us with a drinks bar - luckily they had non alcoholic beverage. I cant drink at all due to my asthma. Besides, I dont particularly like the taste of alcohol.
These girls went round during the evening taking video clips of the attendees.
Decided to lark around on the stage before Steve came on.
The lower half of the armor was in pieces by the time I got home due to aggressive dancing ^^;
Forgot who these two girls are but they also generated hundreds of thousands of views with their content.
The man Steve Chen.
Then its time for more girls. Girls are used to promote just about anything under the rising sun. For some reason, I don't think its a bad idea.
All these girls were the best pick out of a few universities. I didn't come across gorgeous girls like this when I was in university.
Aha! The reason this photo is the wrong way is because my script didnt recognize the EXIF information taken by Hectors camera.
All is not lost as Hector will upload this pic the right way up together with even more pics - keep your eyes peeled on Kirainet this weekend.

The lady in the middle is to my sensory taste buds liking.
These YouTube player frames were all over the place.
Now, Is she pointing at the logo on her T-shirt or her right...
toe?
toe?
Time to leave for more work in Shibuya.
And here are the goodies that we got. The USB dongle enables me to upload upto 1GB of high quality video (per file) to YouTube. The dongle has to be attached to the computer at the time of uploading.
And some more goodies. A YouTube coffee flask made just for the event, a waist warmer and a cloth bag for groceries.
You can see more coverage at the following which include some other shots of me:-Hiniku
Gigazine
Live Door (load of videos)
SS Nikki
BCN Ranking
And a video here
And more at Kirainet.com this weekend.
BTW, was fibbing about the USB dongle - its only a 1GB memory stick ^^;

I believe the lady in the middle that you like looks like another lady that you found gorgeous. http://www.dannychoo.com/slide/eng/akihabara/15494/photo/Akihabara+Liberation+Demo/ Anyway, great photos and wished I could have an opportunity like that in the near future. Thanks for sharing again. :3

Well I'm definitely for gorgeous women promoting this and that; here and there and almost everything in the land of the rising sun. After all, beautiful things are meant to be seen and admired. I guess it just has to be done pleasantly & professionally. Not in a sleazy and distasteful manner.

I've never seen before so many cute ladies together in any japanese event.

I prefer the one to your right on the first pic. Great event they hosted there. Wish our place had those kind of events.

I totally approve the use of wonderful woman, but they need less clothes to even more "commercial" appealing.

We have some cute girls at my university ;p. Hard to believe that you can actually dance the night away in that suit lol, must be hot and heavy after all the dancing. Great looking party, though I don't think I will be uploading anything to youtube anytime soon lol.
(ID #61156) Posted on 2007/10/27 15:19
You're basically saying this article is 80% with girls and 20% with Youtube info. I can imagine Danny dancing that night ^^; Now, I'm gonna go watch the video
(ID #61158) Posted on 2007/10/27 15:29
Looks like fun ! whoever invented girls deserves a pat on the back :P
(ID #61159) Posted on 2007/10/27 15:37
So... is it 2% women or 2% wrong votings among the commenters? :P Damn you Danny, you so had me there on t he 1Gb per file HD video thing... T_T

wow that seemed like an exciting event. Especially with so many hot babes around.
(ID #61161) Posted on 2007/10/27 16:13
Who said absolutely not? Im very disappointed in you! Danny, was that sand under the glass all raked and made into patterns? That would be by far one of the coolest things to have under a glass walkway.. that or writhing naked women.. but sand is a close second. Lol.
(ID #61162) Posted on 2007/10/27 16:34
Tsk - ogling all those women! What will Mrs Choo think??? I didnt know about you not being able to drink! You dont know what youre missing! Well, until the morning after, that is! Nice pics - looks like you had a good un. Were there a bunch of racist, ignorant, xenophobic hillbillies heckling everyone and insulting them throughout the night? They need to be there for the quintessential authentic YouTube experience :-D Good on ya though - next stop, Richard Branson!

meh I just found out they changed the player's look on youtube lol T_T I miss the old one

Honda, I guess it won't be revealing the ultimate truth to you by saying that cute girls attract people... Young males in particular, in any event, even if they stand around all stiff and make big smiles for no reason. That is how it is. Ah, pheromones and testosterone... I love the "Had to leave" picture otherwise. This image perspires of "I am so sorry to bid you farewell in such a hurry, but duty awaits. For worldwide otakus' sake, until we meet again". Almost sounds heroic. XD

Hi Danny! No problem with girls, haha. But I must say, your Trooper armor is becoming quite iconic... Has the "501st Imperial Legion" (Vader's Fist) ever approached you to join their Imperial Costuming ranks? According to the website, there are close to 2000 members in service! Here's the link: http://www.501st.com/icostumes.php

I want a youtube tshirt hehehe. My sister has a google one they were giving out at her university. ^^ that mix sounds like a lot of fun and great place for a person in the current online world to be at. Especially if you were in Storm Trooper outfit hehehe.

You had me believing the story about the usb dongle. I was half way through formulating my reponse, pleading for details, before I got to the end of your post. Well played. (Not that I've got an interest in uploading videos like that, I just wanted to head the technical stuff.)
(ID #61192) Posted on 2007/10/28 01:58
I can't believe they didn't smack a You Tube sticker on your forehead and market you-- your suit completely matches with their decor. Curious, because the photos seem to indicate cute girls outnumber guests. I wonder, if its a female related event, do they roll out cute boys?
(ID #61217) Posted on 2007/10/28 04:21
hi danny, not sure if ur gonna reply but gonna ask anyway. wondering if you met/saw yuki: http://www.youtube.com/Lucymisser or vitor: http://www.youtube.com/Gimmeabreakman both are quite popular with the japanese and english speaking community of youtube, so was just curious if they attended this awesomely cool function.

Why do only the women attract customers and not the men?
