Salutations, Newgrounds.
I'm still sad, but I'm getting a bit better. My antidepressants have actually started working again (thank god). I think it might have been something I was eating? Not sure. If Chinese Food makes my depression worse I'm going to be super bummed.
Anyways, onto the subject of the title, I now own Synth V Studio, and Miss Gumi Megpoid* herself. It was kind of a hassle bc I had to call my bank and tell them that the random purchase from Japan on my card wasn't fraudulent, but at least it processed properly enough for me to get my grubby little hands on her.
There's an American site to buy the bundle I got, but it was cheaper on the jp site for some reason so I just went with that lol. I've gotta conserve what little money I have (I say, having just blown 100 bucks on a midi instrument with an anime girl on it). Here's hoping I'll get at least a little bit of a return investment, or at the very least, not have to worry about my mediocre singing voice gunking up any of my songs going forward. Yippee.
*Technically, her name is just GUMI, and the software is Megpoid, but I think calling her that just sounds really funny so I'm sticking with it.
