Tripshots releases amazing new 3DCG-PV “gift nor art”

After several months of waiting, the end of November has finally arrived and with it the long-awaited release of Tripshot’s newest work, “gift nor art”. This amazing CG production features Tripshots’ take on the Miku Append model in a wonderfully polished and stylistic PV featuring music by producer HSP (Hiroyuki ODA) and lyrics by chu-ji. It’s official promotional site can be found here.

And now to check out the actual awesomeness:

I just love this new song and wanted to make sure that people had this lyrics available to them. So I double checked the lyrics with chu-ji’s Piapro account post and then translated and romanized them. The song’s lyrics are a bit cryptic and when Miku sings alot of obscure or alternative or entirely replaced readings and meanings are used for some kanji but I’m pretty sure I managed to interpret them all correctly. If I made any mistakes, please inform me.

The theme of the lyrics as described by chu-ji is examining and demarcating the boundary lines between “difference” and “existence”

Japanese/English/Romaji Lyrics:

Another great production by Tripshots, who has once again really captured the entire essence of Miku and the Vocaloid phenomenon in this video! I definitely hope he stays active in the Vocaloid community.
