One question!... does Magibon ever speak english??? lol o_O
Student
Does she ever speak good japanese? o_O

I'm sure she speaks English, she's supposed to have been born in the Americas.

She spoke Japanese in one of her videos BTW...
Student
Even I (someone with very, very little experience) can hear Magibon's Japanese isn't that great but atleast she's trying.
I find here strange in a way. She is this really cute looking girl but her fingers and especially her nails kinda freak me out.
Then there's this issue with her theeth.(sorry)
Anyway, I hope she keeps on making vids.
Merry christmas to all of you!

hey I have the same targus bag! only without the youtube logo. ^^; although I think the magnetized pocket is for ipods, but kagami seems more attractive. ^^
http://www.marvinryan.com
btw watch out on the handle, mine got loose and the washer at the end of the handle got lost. still trying to find another one to mend it. ^^
大学生
Oh my. It's Nyoki Nyoki!
Nice to see Tokyo Cooney. I watched his videos.

Magibon is the bomb. I think she's the only person who can get 4 million views by looking at the camera. Seriously, I'm impressed.

That's a really big event by YouTube.

And yes I have uploaded a few videos to youtube. Let's see.. some from my trip to L.A. (with fellow music fans, BT especially) =D *This Binary Universe ftw!
Plus a Metroid tribute video (demo only) but in progress later on. (Bgm track is from Darren Hayes recent album this past year, and an awesome remix)

Hey Danny--What are your thoughts so far on the change to a widescreen video player and the &fmt=22 playing 1920x1080 HD video?
Personally, I'm impressed that YouTube is making steps toward better quality, but it'd be nice if they would fix the blurring problem. They use hardware acceleration to scale the flash object from an incorrect size, so the videos aren't actually as clear looking as the files being loaded really are. If they'd reprogram the player to scale properly the videos would look even crisper and the player would take less CPU power.
student
ugh I never upload any video yet!
College Student
Neat stage. Did they not have enough events lined up for a motile queue? Also, it looks quite crowded in there. How suitable was the venue?

Ah, the Nyoki Nyoki girls. They are so cute!
This whole Youtube Live thing just snuck up on me. I must have been living under a rock.
Just curious Danny, what did you and Magibon talk about?
I hope there are more collaborations between Youtubers in the near future. Tokyocooney and Tkyosam are always good for a laugh.

I'm like brand new in here and the farthest West I have been is Waimaia Canyon, so tell me. The last I heard about Magibon was she was in South Korea to get a new 90 day visa. How long must she stay in South Korea? It has been 18 days and she has not updated her "Road of Dream of [Magi]" blog. Did the haters get their way? Was she sold as a go-go dancer in a thong or as a sex slave?

Kevin (TokyoCooney) and Sam (TkyoSam) are awesome! I subscribed to them like a year or so ago. They make fun/interesting slice of life videos. Dissapointed that kansaipj and myargonauts wasnt there.
Emily and magibon on the other hand, totally fake.
I don't even know what you guy's find interesting about them.
Student
http://www.joesblog.jp
yeah i don't like those two.
I watched many Emily videos during my "watch every Youtube video that teaches anything about japanese language phase" Ultimately Myargonauts and Tokyocooncey make the superior videos concerning that aspect. But Emily is cute so i was attracted to her videos (i'm a guy what can i say) She had a few videos where she cuts the camera a lot and changes outfits. It was very cute and funny. Emily at least provides some insight into her life and some educational material. I have never seen Magibon so i can not comment on her.

Nyoki nyoki! Tsukushi do look like they have very little armor on but yum, they look really sweet!
LOL @ Daito, would love to get that invention... It would be a great use at a party or something... Maybe they can make something that makes the body move to he music? THat'll be awesome if they could do that!
Looks like an awesome time you had, Danny! I want to make videos too!

Looks like you had fun there! Didn't really pay attention to those "Live" thingies that have been going on now but heard quite many dissatisfied things about Youtube Tokyo Live as it wasnt really live in Youtube like the San Francisco one was. I bet it would have been pretty amazing to follow live stream in Youtube as well.

Kynapple is pretty cute :3 Whole thing looks like lot of fun. The stage design I found pretty cool too ^_^
Btw Danny, on the link to Kynapple's blog, the is a /div tag stuck to the end of link, which ends up making it a dead link.

Yeah, I didn't read the bit that said they were uploading videos as they happened either. I remember everyone's comments, and they were all super pissed too. I didn't think it was that big of a deal, I just kept refreshing the video page until new ones popped up.

I used YouTube to upload videos back in High School - I haven't really had a chance to make much since then, since my first year of film school last year was all in Super8 film and weren't worth the cost of a video transfer. I do have a project I can upload now, but since I was just the editor, the director has the final say - and he wants it kept under wraps until the end of year university film festival. ><
I love their stage. And this article was indeed interesting, in that I recognize some of those people.

I've uploaded videos on YouTube before. But i retired.
There's too many idiots on YouTube, especially when it comes to the anti-Anime community who devote their YouTube accounts to making videos about bashing Anime and Anime fans. I was actually one of the few Anime fans who stood up and defended the culture. Eventually the stupidity of the Anti-Anime groups on YouTube got to the point that it was useless to continue fighting and trying to get into their thick skulls of theirs. So I quit. Plus i don't have all the time in the world to be making new videos to these idiots.
I'd rather be here on Dannychoo.com and hear the positive roots of Anime culture with my people.
While that may be true, One can ignore those haters and continue to use the medium for its' many great qualities it offers. I plan on uploading some classical guitar videos soon to get some criticism from some users i follow. If you like uploading videos don't stop for that reason. If you don't have the time i understand but don't let some idiots prevent you from creating ever!!

http://loli1983.wordpress.com
Actually that's right. I do intend to make videos for other things. I've made videos for Rap Music reviews and such. I just haven't been in the mood anymore.
It's just too bad that anytime i make a video about Anime, the haters find it somehow and feed off of it. I can't go on YouTube saying how great a certain TV Anime is without some idiot making a smart assed remark in my comments section.
And i don't like the idea of disabling comments.
