Toyota tries to advertise in the U.S. with help from Vocaloid?

Posted

FFFF--YES.

Kind of awesome in my option, since I love vocaloid. xD It finally means they're getting some love from the USA. <3

 

But yeah, these are supposedly going to air in America.... It was commissioned and made by Toyota America, not Japan. The American company went ahead and made the deal with Crypton. It was made by an American company, for Americans.

 

The commercials don't make any sense though....

But they both show images of the Vocaloid Live concert, which I soooo want to come on an American Tour...

 

 

The commercials apparently are coming out on television within this upcoming week? But to me they won't really do much to promote sales imo unless they're trying attract Vocaloid fans to the car. XDD -- That's what I really don't get. It seriously was made for an American audience, but does this really mean they're trying to launch Vocaloid's (or in this case, Miku) fame in the US even though probably barely anyone knows what a "Miku" or a "Vocaloid" really is?

 

However, Crpyton (the main Vocaloid Company) HAS mentioned an english bank for Miku not too long ago, which might be related to why they're showing her more in America now. Mehh, who knows.

 

But kudos to Miku for getting out over here finally. o3o

 

Anyone else's thoughts?

I know, but Toyota said they only plan to release it on asian channels in the U.S, and that they don't plan to expand it to other stations but those.

Whoops sorry xD

i don't know whether that is true or not....

It is true that Toyota is only really releasing advertisements on Asian channels, and only in magazines for the Asian community. However it is only the beginning of her release to America. CRYPTON is currently hard at work on Miku's English voice bank to release for the Vocaloid program, and I'm pretty sure if the outcome of the concert (which was almost instantly sold out the moment the tickets went on sale) is a success then they'll probably try to branch out to other areas to advertise on (for the Vocaloid POV, not toyota). But I don't think it would be any time soon... o3o
