Long time, no see! We've got a flurry of news to share here! While we are mostly active on our Twitter accounts, with how things have been going lately, if we don't post within 30 days of the previous post, our account could get shut down. We will try to make an effort to post major updates on our website as well to avoid potential loss of major news. First up, we have a new item in store: an acrylic standee featuring the entire JAE VOCAL PROJECT cast, made in celebration of our group's 5th Anniversary! It stands at around 2.5 inches and the width is around 6 inches. Each of the characters use their default outfits. This standee was designed by Mian; be sure to follow her for more amazing art! Unlike the other pieces of merchandise, this standee will only be available for a limited time and will not be restocked. The pre-order will run until July 1, 2023 at 12 AM USA Eastern Time. But as a special offer, here's what you'll get when you order a standee:
Next is in regards to the MMD models for Xiao Meihua, Ser0, Canary, and Xiao Shancha. We were aware that the download links for them were long broken. After speaking with Orahi, we were given permission to upload the models through our dropbox. That said, the links to the models have been updated on those characters' pages. Please be aware of any changes to his Terms of Use and to follow them accordingly! You also may have noticed that we've shared two new demos for Ser0 featuring her update known as "Ser02"! Ser02 will feature some new individual voicebanks, so we hope you look forward to those! Check out these two demos by Purpled! The first is a cover of "Chimera" by ATOLS, with the UST by half a head. The second is a cover of "Ponzi" by Kyoe. This uses Ser02's Appends "AWARE" and "PASSIVE". Hope you're looking forward to what we have in store for Ser0! Closing this out, May 15 is kEna's birthday! This year marks 3 years since he released on UTAU! We've commissioned Reishichi for his official illustration. Here he is among nature, looking as handsome as ever in this peaceful location! We hope that you enjoy everything we had to show lately! Things have been slowing down for a while now, but rest assured, we are still working on new stuff! Be sure to follow our Twitter to keep track of mini updates like anniversary artwork and songs!
Thank you for all your support! Until next time!

It's been a while since our last update! We've been busy with some new songs as of late and we're finally able to show another. But before that, we'd like to address that May 15, 2022 was kEna's second anniversary! This year, we've commissioned Ami-Magane for an amazing illustration for him! Hope you like it as much as we do! As for the new song, it's a demo for Xiao Shancha's CVVCV Japanese DeepVocal: "Renraku Madaa?" by Live-P. The cover is by yakou using sango312's UST, with mixing done by Marukun. The illustration was by ElliCoffee and the video editing was by Fruit Tea. The cover is also available on our SoundCloud account and on Migi's bilibili account. We are expecting to have two or three UTAU demos for this version of Shancha. Until then, we hope that you enjoy her so far!
Thank you for reading and for your support! Today is Xiao Meihua's fifth anniversary! This year, we've uploaded a new cover of "Karakuri Pierrot", originally written by 40mP! The cover was handled by Mina Moonrise with illustrations by 02Kase-chan! This uses the VSQx by Mark LawX and the harmony vocals feature our affiliate from The StarRise Project: Seishi Starchaser! The cover is available on YouTube and bilibili! In the PV, you'll also notice cameos of Ser0, Xiao Shancha, JD, kEna, and Yu Junjie! Unfortunately, Canary couldn't make it, but we'll find a way to make it up to him for sure!
In addition, since it's June, all Xiao Meihua and Xiao Meiye keychains are on sale for the month! Please check out our official Ko-Fi shop if you're are interested in obtaining either character! Thank you very much for supporting Meihua after all these years! JAE VOCAL PROJECT has come a long way since then and we hope it shows! A long while ago, Migi provided Miis of the JAE VOCAL PROJECT cast for the 3DS and WiiU. Now, with the new re-release of Miitopia for the Nintendo Switch, Migi provided updated Miis with the new wig and make-up styles available in this version! Like the previous versions, these are his own interpretations of the characters and is not meant to be the official canon. It is entirely optional to use them and everyone is entitled to creating their very own if they would like to! If you are interested in using any of them, use the following code to import them: 8GGJBT. To watch them in action, Migi has began streaming on Twitch and YouTube. All videos are archived on his new YouTube Channel that's dedicated strictly for streaming and non-vocal synthesis use. Check it out here!
Affiliate characters are also present in the game, but will not be accessible. Like JAE VOCAL PROJECT, these are only Migi's interpretations and are not official. There are some who are currently not available in the gameplay but will be in the future. The only affiliate who is distributed is Reicheru Nintone. Her owner actually made the Mii available on Twitter! We hope you like them and enjoy using them yourselves if you'd like! Today marks kEna's first anniversary! This year, Feng Quan and Preuss collaborated together on a cover of Giga and Reol's "Hibikase" using KIRA's UST! Feng Quan handled the cover and mixing while Preuss did the illustrations and video editing. The videos are uploaded to Preuss's YouTube, Feng Quan's bilibili, and Migi's bilibili! As usual, since kEna's anniversary is in May, his Love Confessions keychain is discounted at our shop. We haven't written an updated status about our official store, but we are no longer using Storenvy due to issues with accessing it and checking out based on customers' responses. Instead, we have moved to Ko-Fi, which uses Migi's name. There, fans can still purchase the keychains by faynatical and Nekocopicat among other things that aren't related to UTAU or DeepVocal. This offer is only available this month, so if fans were looking to purchase kEna at a cheaper price, now is a good time to do so.
We hope that you enjoy the video! Thank you very much for supporting kEna and the rest of JAE VOCAL PROJECT! It's still hard to believe that it's January and that the first week had already flown by! After January comes February, which means that Valentine's Day is coming up as well! With that in mind, JAE VOCAL PROJECT decided to create new merchandise to reflect the holiday: Love Confessions designed by nekocopicat! This line consists of nine keychains: the seven cast members (Meihua, Ser0, Canary, Shancha, JD, kEna, and Junjie) and the two officially recognized derivatives (Meiye and Naidong)! Each of them have a unique pose and expression while wearing their default clothes, except for Meihua and Canary. Meihua is wearing her Arpasing English outfit while Canary is wearing his Arpasing English Vivid Soft outfit (the voicebank is not released at this time). These acrylic keychains are also holographic, giving a shine at every angle you turn it! To add onto the theme, the clips are shaped as hearts. To order these keychains, visit the JAE VOCAL PROJECT Storenvy located in the navigation bar of our website! If you would like to see these as future stickers, buttons, and other goods via Redbubble, let us know and we'll see what we can do for that if possible!
Like with the previous keychains by Melody, only Meihua, Ser0, Canary, and Shancha will come with the free 25mm buttons by winter. If the seven main cast members (excluding Meiye and Naidong) were purchased, then the postcard by oweruru will be distributed. Both of these are available while supplies last: once they are gone, they will not be restocked! We hope that you like these new keychains! It's a wonder that we can finally add more to the shop compared to some years ago and we're genuinely pleased to share these cute ideas with you all! JAE VOCAL PROJECT has an official Redbubble shop now! There, purchased goods are produced by the vendor and directly ship to you! For now, you'll see the familiar designs by winter in addition to a few doodle samples from Migi! More designs are to come! As for our Storenvy, it was initially closed due to COVID-19. However, since Redbubble can produce buttons, we are retiring the ones that were available through Storenvy. Our Storenvy shop will only serve to offer products that cannot be produced by Redbubble (keychains, different shaped buttons, etc.). The shop will be reopened once we have new items available! To access Redbubble, hover over the "Shops" tab and it will appear in a dropdown menu!
Thank you for reading! We hope you enjoy the products available!
The full PV for "ANTI THE∞HOLiC" featuring kEna and Kurone Shou is now available! It was originally written by cosMo and this cover was done entirely by Preuss!
This PV is also available on bilibili and Niconico.
kEna had many different songs for his pre-release demos, but not all of them have PVs. Whether or not they will receive one depends entirely on Preuss's decision. But for now, please enjoy this one!
On another note, Xiao Meihua received a second LipSync model! This time, it's by partialkakera! It can be downloaded through her webpage, and if used, please credit partialkakera for the model.
We still have more projects to come in the following weeks. Please look forward to that!
Today, on May 15, 2020, JAE-06: kEna is now released! He is a young masculine vocal and is capable of VCV Japanese. He is managed, voiced, and illustrated by Preuss! Four years after the release of our first character, we are finally catching up and closing with the final members of the cast! kEna is our sixth character released, meaning that there is only one left! Do you know who that is?
Aside from the last character, we also have other projects in the works! We have two things to show in the next two weeks, so be sure to catch them when you can! Would kEna be involved? Probably! For now, we hope that you like kEna! If you use him, be sure to share it with us on any of our accounts, be it through the group or individual team members! Enjoy! Within the last couple of months, we released three new videos featuring full length songs! Two of the songs are PV versions of demo songs and one of them is a new cover! The first video is for "MATRYOSHKA" by Hachi. This was a demo for Xiao Shancha's Japanese voicebank and also features Xiao Meihua. The cover and mixing was done by SlightlyShredded, the art was drawn by MochaBunnii, and the video was completed by Cluemily. This video was uploaded to YouTube in September, and is also available on bilibili and Niconico. It is not available on SoundCloud due to copyright issues. Later, a PV version of "Ame o Tsureyuku" featuring kEna was uploaded. Cluemily worked on the video for this as well, while the rest of the components were fulfilled by Preuss. The song was written by Hadano-P and the lyrics were written by 裏花火. The song originally featured VOCALOID Kagamine Len. The PV is available on YouTube, bilibili, and Niconico. Last but not least, we put together a project for Halloween! For months, the JAE VOCAL PROJECT members were working on a cover of "Furaan Furaan ~Zonbii~" featuring Canary and Shancha. Originally written by Nem for VOCALOIDs GUMI and CUL, the cover was handled by Lanttu and the mixing was done by SlightlyShredded. The artwork was illustrated by partialkakera and the video was finished by Purpled. The video features Yu Junjie as a cameo! With "Furaan Furaan ~Zonbii~" completed, we can now return our focuses to developing more voicebanks. We are still expecting to release Meihua English, Meihua DeepVocal, and Shancha DeepVocal in 2019. JD, Ser0 DeepVocal, Yu Junjie, and kEna are still expected to be released at some point, and it is possible that most of them may release in 2020.
We hope you are looking forward to our next projects and endeavors! Have a wonderful holiday season in advance! |
