4. Will you duet with me?!?!?!
Yes, I will. Message me what song you'd like to do and we'll discuss it. ^^

Updated Project List and Art Gallery
Hi there.
This is Imoristar's blog editor, Nhan-Fiction, speaking.
If you haven't checked out the new project list (now with links to completed videos for your convenience), please do so by clicking here or on the handy dandy picture in the upper, right-hand corner. Imori-chan is always working hard to finish these projects in a timely manner, and she always has plenty of other ideas for around the corner.
If you have a request, please do not be shy about messaging her on YouTube or something. Just please keep in mind that she has a lot of projects already lined up, so it may be tricky to add your request to the list immediately.
Also, be sure to check out Imoristar's fanart page! She is always looking for more fan-drawn pictures of her, so get those drawing materials out! Submit your fan-made art to my e-mail account, nhanfiction@gmail.com, and I can post them right to the page! ^^
Finally, please spread Imori-chan's YouTube videos around by telling your friends. She is such a ☆!
Thanks. Have a super special awesome day. :)

I'M BACK BABY!!!
IMORI'S BACK! AND BETTER THAN EVER!
SPECIAL NOTE: I'm sorry that I haven't been able to be as quick with updating as I used to be. The reason for this is because I'm focusing more on quality. :)
If I haven't gotten to a project that I promised you, I will for sure! Please just be patient with me. ^^
My sudden hiatus angered a few people, but I found it very necessary and I am so happy I decided to do it! So let's share what I've accomplished in the last three weeks since I last posted!
SPECS
- New microphone = finally working! Yay!
- Updated video software.
- Updated audio software.
LYRICS (translated and adapted)
- "Y to Y" lyrics done.
- "Tori no Uta" lyrics done.
- "CANDY CANDY" lyrics done.
EDITING
- "1000 Words" (final mp3) finished.
- "Meltdown" for Ersatz finished.
VIDEOS/SONGS
DOUBLE MELODY!
I was really happy this ended up being my first song, now that I'm back!
LOLI LOLI NIGHT FEVER!
A thank you from Devin and I for 150+ subs!
VOICE ACTING PROJECTS
Nhan-Fiction's Cerule character is starting to take shape and gain popularity!
In the future, she will have:
- A full voice set.
- Makeup tutorial.
- Animation sequence.
- Wiki page.
So yeah!
MIKU ANIMATION PROJECT!*
Devin and I saw this online and thought it looked cute ... SO WE DUBBED IT :)
*Translations by me!
VOCAPPEND
My character's been updated! Now I sing as Teto instead of Yuki Kaai.
EH!? AH~SOU!?
Ah Sou basically means, "Is that so?"
A very, very ... interesting song. It was soooo much fun to do! And also, it's my first song as Teto!
ONE OF VOCAPPEND'S BEST CHORUSES!
It featured a lot of us! It's also the last song I'll be as Yuki! Definitely check this one out, please!
I subbed as Meiko in a couple songs as theirs is on vacation. This one I get to do some voice acting, too! :)
It's on my old mic, so it doesn't sound as good. :(
Thanks for everything, guys! Thanks for believing in me! I'll try not to let you down, and I promise to try to blog more often! Hahaha!

Vocappend: "Parameter"
Vocappend: Special Project
Phoenix5444: "Safe and Sound" (Chorus Project)
PROJECTS ON THE TOP OF MY LIST AFTER HIATUS:
LoL: Cerule voice acting**
"Ah, Sou" (Devin x Imori)*
"Good Time" (Phoenix5444 x Imori)*
"1000 Words" (Final Release)*
* = indicates almost-urgent importance.

- My derpy mic situation still hasn't actually been resolved. It will be soon, though, so no worries.
- New school semester has begun, and I need the next week or two so I can settle in.
- Project list has become too long (I need to start catching up with these lists and plan some actions, mainly for duet lists).
- Many Japanese lyrics I have not been able to translate due to lack of time.
- A lot of friends have been wondering where I've been ... Haha, meaning I've been working so hard on online projects that my offline friends have become worried.
- Just working on a few life changes, all for the better, to make things easier in the long run.
- De-stressing! Because I don't want to sound rude, but I have been doing many, many projects between vocappend, duets, translating, mixing for people other than myself, request songs, running my first chorus song, updating my blog, voice acting and so forth ... I'm a little tired. Hahaha, just a little though! Promise!

Hey guys! Doing some updates for ya! <3
Phoenix's FF9 Abridged was released today. I got to play a small role in it and am honored of course to be part of the video! Phoenix also says he wants me to do bigger roles for him in the future, so I am thrilled!
Also released today was Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal (ending 3) "Wild Child," as well as a re-release of my dub of Masterpiece, which was taken down recently due to visual copyright infringment. Thanks, 4Kids. LOL.
