Today's.
Posted [Daily Life] Hospitalization Day 4 to Pixiv Fanbox!

I am concerned about the numbness I can't get rid of in my legs...

A plain old pervert if you just look at Twitter.

RT @hiroys_milkcafe OSTER Project, Fuwacina-san. The Vocaloid producer I aspire to the most. If you just look at Twitter, she's a plain old pervert, but the songs she makes are fun and beautiful, and it's one of my goals to be someone who can express themselves like this.
[Kagamine Rin] The Fox's Wedding [Original Song]

My body is recovering smoothly. I wanna be released quick, but I can't be hasty... I need to be careful to avoid a relapse after being let out, too. Truly regrettable.

Gave up.

I can't make music without Dominooooo!!

Ah, maybe I can just use this phone to make music? lol

Periods like this of getting your health sorted out are absolutely necessary for the future, and that's how I made up my mind to do it, and I know this couldn't be avoided, but maybe I just plain get impatient with myself when I'm not creating something. Not to say I'm so admirable or anything; I think I use that as an emotional foundation.

I absolutely can't ignore the existence and voices of people who need me even as I am, so I've gotta do my best until I can proudly stick out my chest as myself again. Taking care of health included.

Gotta properly make music again...

It's not like the world is waiting for me or anything, but what's with this scary feeling of being left behind by the world...

I got an explanation of what to do after leaving the hospital, and I have to spend the next three months post-surgery doing impersonations of Motoya Izumi.

I think this kid who moved into my room is having the same operation I did... Please... Please go well... Don't end up like me...

Got permission to wash my hair, too! Victory is mine.

Got all the tubes taken out of my bodyyy!

[Good News] The first breakfast in 24 hours has arrived. The day's first outstanding achievement.

March 14th, 2020

:sniffle:

I wanna go home.

Even 300 or 500 yen is fine, so please... But of course, 5000 yen would also be fine!!!! (forceful)

This series is ultra-realistic, so I think it's a compelling read. (fierce singing-own-praises)

This stuff is way too unordinary to tag as "Daily Life," surely? (late realization)

The part covering today.
Posted [Daily Life] Hospitalization Day 3 to Pixiv Fanbox!

I'm totally forgetting how I normally moved...

Finally succeeded at acting independently without a walker. My greatest achievement in 2 days.

I've been in the hospital on both White Day and Valentine's. :heart:

While holding in a sneeze to protect my wounds, I bent all my sore muscle spots and died.

I'm so lacking in amusement, the mere phrase "Opperman says" [looks a bit like "Oppaiman" (Boobsman) in Japanese] in an article about goats climbing cliffs is making me laugh uncontrollably. (Don't laugh at people's names.)

I wanna be healthy...

Because I'm moving my body carefully to protect the parts that hurt, I've got muscular pain all over... The battle continues. But actually, it hasn't even been 24 hours since the second surgery... You're kidding, right? Time feels endless...

[Toro, Sora, and three humans all saying the same thing: "Hundred-Crack Fist of the Deep Kiss!"]
Party animal get-togethers are too scary.

Why's there so much rice in hospital food?! It's a rice festival!

I'm a scientific person lacking in sensitivity, so when I hear the lyric "as many people as there are stars," I can't resist going like "there ain't THAT many!"

Another day OSTERing for an empty audience.

Having high hopes for the potential of my future health. (optimistic)

It's not coronavirus, but since I had surgery, I've got a fever.

I want a nurse who, if I said "If I used a walker, I bet I could go all the way to Proxima Centauri," would tell me "Hey now, let's shoot for around Mars first, okay?"

Hold on, by "it's snowing," you mean in Tokyo?!

The part covering yesterday, surgery day.
Posted [Daily Life] Hospitalization Day 2 to Pixiv Fanbox!

I was by myself in a big room, but two new girls who look like they play sports moved in... They're probably feeling uneasy not being allowed chaperones because of coronavirus, but they're hanging tough... Meanwhile, I, age 33, cried out "Thank you so much :crying: :crying: :crying:" in the operating room immediately after my re-operation was over.

For being able to go potty by myself the same day I started walking, I'm far superior to a baby.

It huuurts...

I'm a 3-year-old baby, so I want to be praised just for going potty on my own.

I'm scared of suddenly getting up, so I'm gradually raising the bed, like TORE. [Japanese game show where contestants are slowly wrapped like mummies from bottom to top.]

After last night's operation, they're like, can you eat breakfast already...? Can you walk already...? But I'm doing my best... I'm gonna recover...!

I've been in bed for a day and half now, so sure enough, my body's starting to ache... But my legs don't hurt! It's a wonderful thing for my legs not to hurt...

March 13th, 2020

I never want to have surgery twice in one day again, but I'm really glad... :sniffle: It was a long battle... :sniffle: It'll continue on, but I'll do my best until I can be released. :sniffle: :sniffle: :sniffle:

I did it... I was anxious the whole time... I was so relieved when the surgery was over and the pain had completely gone that I cried... I'm glad I did my best... :crying:

I'm baaaaack!! It was fixed this time!!!! :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Here I go!

Don't tell me, the no-audience surgery has a day and a night showing? lmao

Not yet, lol

Here I gooo!

And I mean, the worst of the post-surgery pain was the pain from the newly-appeared hernia, so I think I'll be able to endure with that gone!! Right!

I'm totally thinking "Why me?!", but that won't do any good now that it's happened, so I'll just do what I must to get better...

If I've done it once, I can do it again! It's okay!

Can't I, you know, win the lottery or something...? :sniffle: :sniffle: :sniffle:

Why the heeeeeck... :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: Why've I gotta be super lucky about getting incredibly rare conditions and stuff?!?!?! lololol

So here I go agaaain... :halo:

That Time Removing A Hernia Made A Hernia Show Up And I Had To Get Surgery Again

Not really progressing the best, so having an MRI. :crying:

LOLing at how when the lady comes to my room now, her greeting is like "Heyooo!"

I don't learn, so for a repeat attempt, when she asked "You didn't apply any alcohol, did you?", I said "It's all good! I prefer to drink alcohol!", but I had bad timing and couldn't get her to pick it up... Our comedy duo's done for...

Some strong painkillers kicking in made me feel better, but thinking about how that terrifying pain might return when they wear off, I asked when I could use another round of painkillers. I did get the answer, but they basically told me it won't help to get too frightened, so just enjoy the time you can spend comfortably now, and good luck! So I'm gonna enjoy it. Boobs.

It was my bad, okay... Forgive me...

The nurse seems like she might be from Kansai, and has a nice energy when she talks, so when she asked "Is there anything you want?", I got a little silly and replied "Warmth..." Then it suddenly got like "Huh? Look, enough of that...", and I felt like I was gonna die.

But for real, I'm worried about how much areas that weren't operated on are hurting, but I did tell them about it, so now I just have to endure... Gotta believe.

When they ask me to rate my pain from 1 to 10, I want to say "5 gazillion!!", but I'm an adult, so I said 8.

I got a message and thought someone was checking in on me, but it was a notice about the Sushiro fair.

I can endure a little pain just fine.

The post-operation pain itself isn't as bad as I expected as long as I'm resting, but for some reason my legs reached maximum pain, and I thought they were getting cut off... (It's settled down now thanks to painkillers.)

Since before I even woke up from anesthesia, AI Want Your Love Kiritan has been playing in my head. Kiritan was protecting me. (??)

I'm alive... Hello.

reboot...

It's very soon.

The IV going in suddenly adds a lot to the "being a patient" feel...

I keep on saying "I'll do my best!", but it's the surgeons who are gonna do their best!!!

I slept soundly!

March 12th, 2020

Posted [Daily Life] Hospitalization Day 1 to Pixiv Fanbox! [I won't translate these since they're behind a paywall, but I'll include them for reference.]

I'm behind the times, so rather than the doctor saying there's an 80% chance I get better, I believe more in the fortune I drew at my New Year's shrine visit that said there's a 10 out of 10 chance I'd get better.

Let's think about fun things! Motsunabe! Wagyu beef! Curry! Food! Food, food! Tasty food!

Sorry for being scared all the time, but I'm scaaared... :smiling devil:

The night before surgery, with nothing to do, thinking I'd post a hospitalization log on Fanbox, but Pixiv won't open.

Yes, this hernia is a rebound caused by my happiness... No doubt about it...

Food's here!! It's here!! I'm saved!!

[Jun: "[corrupted text], March is already ending, hop. Sleeping with people, perviness... I haven't been able to get much done this month either..."]
It's more fun if you narrow down the parts to remark upon.

To think it hurts this much to not have between-meal snacks... This is bad...

This is probably the only day I'll be this energetic...

Because of this overwhelmingly kind hospital diet, I'm already hungry... :drooling:

[Photo of wearing hospital bracelet with a bomb emoji on it and flames] It's that thing that explodes if you try to run or remove it!! (bored person)

I'm wearing a Bloom Into You T-shirt to receive power from Yuu Koito.

It's a big room, but since I normally talk to myself a lot, I go "Woohoo!" just over food arriving and such, which is dangerous.

When the nurse lady asked if I had any concerns at the end of her explanation, I couldn't say how I'd be lonely not getting to meet anybody due to coronavirus, and that I was feeling helpless and uneasy... The letter I rewrote over and over stayed tucked away in my pocket...

Having people with different jobs come in one after another to explain things to me is making me feel the obvious fact of how hospitals work as a team.

This is today's scene. [Photo of a hospital bed.]

On the scene! I'm gonna make the greatest of sounds! (????)

March 11th, 2020

I know I said I'd put Fanbox updates on pause, but I'll probably be bored in the hospital, so I think I'll make diary posts! Skip past them if you can't handle that stuff.

I promptly went and got toasty using the bath salt from the wishlist.

Taken care of work, and settled preparations for hospitalization... You can look forward to me being thrown in the hospital tomorrow! How nice!

Thanks to your goodwill, I can have a feast on par with my medical expenses... Grateful... So grateful...

Just opened the list, and the last 10,000-yen wagyu beef has also been bought... :crying: :crying: :crying: Thank you, minister of wagyu beef... :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

The nutrients contained in OSTER songs such as augs, dims, and #9s are directly used by your brain, and induce excitement and happiness.

OSTER songs won't help cure coronavirus, but they will help cure your life, so please listen to them...

Two days from now! An no-audience operation! Be sure to watch! :sunglasses: (???)

I buy hentai with my own money :huff:

RT @Kyubeasy oster project bought hentai oster project bought hentai
Not hentai!!!!!!! This is very hot Curry!!!!!!!

Ahhhhhhh, all your love lets me live... I'll do my best... How nice... :crying:

I read the messages you sent, too! I'm glad!

Isn't that so fast?! Amazing, right?!

I'm not in the hospital yet, but my wishlist items arriiiiived! :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: Thank you, everyooooone... :crying: :crying: :crying: [Photo of a stack of Amazon boxes, and photo of some unpacked stuff, including a red box clearly marked "R18."]

I'm the kind of otaku who, when she sees something shining bright, adds darkness to gauge how bright that light is.

It's a necklace they bought while grinning together, so she tries to hold onto it, but even those fun memories make her chest tighten. That's Friendship... urk... (chronic illness)

I'm way too into fellow girls having matching things... Thinking about how they were probably grinning together as they shopped around makes me grin too...

Summer Idol...!!! Even if Miku and Luka started dating, I sense there'll be discord if Miku and Rin still have matching scrunchies. (attuned to womens' emotions)

[Retweets Summer Idol fanart with Miku (leaning into Luka's chest and full-on grabbing her boob) announcing she started dating Luka, while Rin and Len congratulate them from the back.]

I put all those Tohoku references in the Kiritan song because I sensed the passion the official account had for motivating Tohoku... I hope if you go on a trip to Tohoku, you'll encounter the origins of the references and go "So that's what that was!" :heart:

Tohoku is great!! I went to Yamagata last month, but when I'm better, I'll go to Fukushima too! :flex: [Retweets AI Want Your Love! Kiritan]

RT @t_zunko Tohoku companies being able to use Zunko, Itako, and Kiritan for free is also to fulfill that inherent purpose of motivating Tohoku. o(*・ロ・*)o

RT @t_zunko Today, March 11th, was the day of the Great East Japan Earthquake. Tohoku Zunko was born to motivate Tohoku, where the Great East Japan Earthquake struck. (◍•ᴗ•◍)

Feel like this is about when I started consciously using augs...
[Hatsune Miku] Flower Rail [Original Song]

Since I'm fumbling around by feel, of course growth is going to take time. But having these feel-based discoveries every time I make a song is really fun, so I can never stop making songs...

Speaking of perverse progressions, I often bring up Marginal as a reference, but back then, I didn't have any semblance of balance and went overboard experimenting like "I'll just try shifting these notes..." Lately, I think I'm finally able to make things a well-ordered perverse.

I bet if I keep on like this, I'll start to see even more different sights... Doesn't it feel like they're coming into sight?? Wanna go see them soon.

I've always been making attempts to insert strange progressions into pop, but if I trace the roots of me becoming as contrary as I am now, I feel like I started to awaken to something right around the interlude of Napo-Naporitan Match...

iTunes bugged out and created a best-of album for me containing 481 songs. [Photo of the OSTER-san's Best album shown as having 481 songs and a duration of 1.1 days.]

I've finally been able to pick up
The most wonderful thing yet

(in a bath filled with packs of money, holding beautiful women in both arms) [Lyrics from Noriyuki Makihara's "What I Wanted the Most."]

Maybe the reason I can't think of things I want is because what I want can't be bought on Amazon... (a tight, beautiful body, pretty two-fold eyes without needing eye putti, a healthy body that doesn't get sick, a life of never fearing getting lost, luck, fortune, status, prestige, etc.)

I'll overcome my surgery looking forward to eating tasty things... (who said she'd lose weight when it was over, i don't know her)

The reason I put so much food on there is because it might get tough to make things in the kitchen after surgery... (official answer)

I woke up, and the wishlist I selfishly packed with whatever I could think of was emptied out, and I'm gonna cry... Thank you, everyone. :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

March 10th, 2020

The day I've long been awaiting but never wanted to come is nearly at hand... But if it's already here, now I just need to endure. Simple...

Not getting as much work done as I thought... :crying: Tomorrow's my last day in this life, so I'll do my best not to leave any regrets...

My wishlist is gradually clearing out, and I'm seriously grateful... Thank you very much...

People who don't like spicy food often misinterpret me, but it's not like I eat spicy things as a joke. I eat them because they're delicious.

Huh, wait, the wagyu beef got bought?! Wagyu...!!!! Thank you, minister of wagyu... :crying: :crying: :crying: :folded hands:

Once, a fellow flat-chested friend told me how her chest shrank after childbirth, and I immediately blurted out "Even smaller?!" (We laughed about it a lot afterward)

Huh, what do I want, indeed...? What do you think I want...???? Boobs!!!!!

Even when I'm asked what I want, I answer "wagyu beef"... I have no greed... Only an appetite...

RT @itsuii98981 It's just food!!!!!
There was a cushion and stuff at first!!!!!! I swear, Totoro was really there!!!

[Retweeting wishlist] Stuff like the cushion that could help with my back and the bath salt was quickly snapped up, turning it into a simple glutton's wishlist...

The Gator Who Dies If They Don't Use augs

Isn't the Kiritan song amazing?! There's hardly any time to relax!!! It's the song of a diseased person who has to constantly be doing something weird or they die...

The Kiritan song's more popular on NicoNico than YouTube! Interesting how it differs depending on the song.

Someone bought the cushion on my wishlist?! I didn't get a notification?!

I've really gotten a clear picture of how I'm only thinking about food...

That time I made a wishlist and most of it ended up being food... :bowing woman: :bowing woman: :bowing woman: [Link to an Amazon wishlist, which is empty by now.]

I guess I probably should make a wishlist... :crying: :tears:

As I look over medical bills, I'm thinking "If I had this money, I could've eaten lots of delicious things at a fancy restaurant..." and making myself sad.

While taking care of surgery paperwork, my heart pounded so much that my stomach started hurting... I'm way too much of a chicken.

For people who don't have them yet, I've also got CDs! (direct marketing)

Sorry if that earlier series of tweets felt like I'm urging you to support me on Fanbox... :woman bowing: (I did gain supporters :heart:) But if you just saw that and simply thought "I want to support her," then I'll simply say "thank you." :heart:

Since you never know what'll happen in life, it's scary to think how you don't know when you might lose the things you have now. I know when that happens, no matter how painful it is, I'll just have to accept it and keep living, but it's horribly exhausting every time, so I just want to live peacefully...

I never want to make an announcement like "I'm quitting music to work at a desk job"! lol... I hope such a day never comes...

So out of a desire for everyone to know more about what I find beautiful, I make all sorts of videos, but I've only just started, and I'll be happy if I can slowly permeate through society! I'll continue to do my best.

What people think, what they enjoy, and what they spend money on is completely up to them, and I know all I can do is try to become an important presence to those people, but still! I get uneasy sometimes too, bein' human and all. :adult:

I want to always make music, and I'll continue to put in the effort to make that happen, but I don't want people to go like "she'll probably keep creating even if I ignore her." Not just for me, but for all creators in the world...

I've felt iffy about that for years, and finally hit the point of being able to say it.

Just because you keep working hard doesn't mean you'll be seen, and I'm sure my difficulties making opportunites for my name to be seen come from my own lack of effort and ability. But if you happen to see my name again after a long time and say I "revived" as if I wasn't active the whole time, that just makes me feel lonely, okay?!

March 9th, 2020

[Ricky: "Ahhh, I can't wait for the female body man show, ribbit."] [I'm guessing the intended template here is "[one]-man show."]
That's a strip tease.

Should I drastically increase my appearances on Twitter, or should I post recovery diary entries to Fanbox...? lol

I haven't been directly affected by coronavirus until now, but its biggest effect on me is how visits will be forbidden while I'm in the hospital... That makes me way too uneasy. (because I'm a baby)

It's the last spurt before hospitalization.

Posted [For Fanatics] Pf+Ba+Wind+Strings Mix: AI Want Your Love! Kiritan to Pixiv Fanbox!

Though of course my wind instruments and strings are just mega-self-taught!!!

But I do really want people to listen to those four parts...

I was thinking of throwing an alternate mix with just the piano, bass, wind instruments, and strings, but I worried it might be too niche. :thinking face:

RT @spmagnet8 Miss OSTER, what I want even more than chord talk is tips for composing wind and string instruments with a mouse... I'll pay if I have to...

Some say I was the first to coin the word "Miku-rapt." (?) [A word for people dependent on or addicted to Miku, evidently first said on her Radio in Love.]

If I had to perform the Kiritan song, I think I'd die.

[Photo: "YURI [Lilies]: 720kcal, 1,200 yen (+ tax)"]
720kcal

Really want to learn my lesson and stop deciding what to wear on instinct without checking the weather forecast.

Once again, my back has been in climax mode since this morning, but I'm going out for a girls' lunch...

Every time I listen to that Frozen 2 song, in my head I sing "lesbianing now."

I imagine there are people who think the more active the bass is, the better, but you see, the more active the bass is, the better.

I make songs like I'm riding a broom and flying through the sky with magic, so I wonder sometimes what I'd do if I suddenly forgot how to fly and fell. All of it is feelings, ingrained in my head and hands...

What's that...? Oh, sure, I just used a slash aug as a clincher before the chorus, what of it?

Though ultimately I think it's most important that it sounds good when you hear it, and think it's fine that way!

This time especially, I'm startled by the outbreak of augs during the song. It's not like I was enthusiastically going "I'll consciously use augs!" when I made it. I guess it's common when I'm trying to make a line that moves by half-tones that it accidentally forms augs in the process...

When I go back and analyze like this how it's actually constructed, I re-recognize how I truly do make songs by feeling alone...

I'm making a little bit of an explanation video that's not much of an explanation for the Kiritan instrumental, but seriously, this is really not much of an explanation.
[Picture of video: "Semi-explanation of the big highlights (key=F→Eb→Gb) Started it trying for some kind of key change again, but what the hey is this?"]

My Miku-san who sang about "dying up to her fingertips your color," ten years later, is secretly and proudly cutting her nails short to prepare for yuri times...

No one else knows what will make your own life feel bountiful. People have their own things they hold precious and values they want to respect, too.

I feel my own maturity looking at how I can write lyrics like Friendship now, and how that's probably because I've grown as a person. The problem with having puberty way too late.

Like, looking at Miracle Paint now, doesn't it leave such an impression of a virgin's idea of a cute girl??? Dying up to my fingertips your color?????

That's probably why a lot of my older lyrics are fantastic with no hint of reality. I probably didn't understand people's feelings very well. Meanwhile, the more recent they get, the more raw and realistic I think they are... Though which one's better is a matter of taste.

I don't think it's like I was trying to present myself as diligent, I was really just a person who could only do what she was told. Even now, that way of life has become a habit, so I can't be flexible in my ideas when the time calls for it.

I always immersed myself in worlds which could be entirely solitary like study, music, and games, so before I knew it, my abilities to socialize and show sympathy and live in harmony were being utterly lapped. I still make a lot of mistakes, but it feels like it's only in the past few years I've been able to build meaningful relationships with others...

The other day, I was told a story about "once, I skipped school and (etc.)", and even if that isn't a commendable thing, I felt a kind of aspiration or envy about having that kind of experience. About how I was only able to live following predetermined rules in a pre-established world...

March 7th, 2020

murmur twins from O to W contains all the components humans need to live. It can't cure cancer yet, but it will.

Until a month ago, I was thinking "Can't I get up to 30,000 followers? :heart:", yet 40,000 is in sight now. Life is amazing... Nice round numbers! :heart:

I'm serious.

I want to be invited by a lecturer at a music vocational school or something, and when the curtains rise, loudly speak "Please aggress my areolas" and get banned. [Probably based on "semeru" (attack) being usable both in a musical sense and in a sex way.]

If I can brag a little, I'm in Guinness as the person who makes the world's most OSTER-san-like music.

It's pleasant when both you and others are in a mindset where you can casually praise people!

Everyone seems to think living is just ordinary, but all kinds of anxieties and suffering befalls you endlessly just in the act of living, so I think being able to keep piling on day after day amid that is a really amazing thing.

Also, people think I must absolutely love thrill rides, but I can't handle them... The problem is that they really scare me every time, but people think I'm really seeking that kind of stimulus... I guess they would... (i like spicy food)

Huh?! You're great just for living! But on top of that, you work, and make a living only on the money you earn?! Isn't that too incredible?! Can I get a Nobel Amazing Prize?!?!

I wonder, is an only child characterized by acting free and selfish?

Is there not some better Japanese than "douyou ni tashika rashii"? I feel like there are probably people who don't feel comfortable with probability thanks to that bizarre phrase... I was always super bad with probability...

Isn't it tough remembering what's eldest-daughterness and second-daughterness and youngest-daughterness? I managed to learn blood personality types, but there's so much to learn. I'm me-esque. They're similar-esque. ["Douyou ni tashika rashii," a phrase meaning "they're equally likely," that uses the same "rashii" I'm translating as "-esque."]

While out drinking last night, I was told I'm eldest-daughter-esque, but I'm a second daughter. Good morning.

Think rationally and have your hernia fixed, dummy.

Want to make an Oil Baron tier on my Fanbox to be supported with.

At any rate, I'll do as much as I'm able to! Once I'm out of the hospital, I'll put on stamina and increase my performance. I'll do my best and live.

I want to make more lecture videos, but between making a Kiritan video and finishing up work matters, my hospital date will come up in the blink of an eye...

I used tags that I figured absolutely wouldn't exist, but felt such a sense of defeat when some already did...

Wonder if it'd be okay to prerelease the Kiritan song on Fanbox...

Yes, let's say it's done. The song is done. It's done!

So, about the song. It's done, you see.

What I like about The Gator Who Dies After 100 Days is that frank friendship where you can go "hey, why not!" and suddenly decide to go out for ramen...

I want cute clothes, but I really want a healthy body that'll allow me to properly experience the fun of picking and buying cute clothes...

I'm always at a loss when I'm asked what I want... Right now, maybe a zero-gravity cushion that wouldn't even break an egg if you sat on it? Also, MODO Drum... Geez, so it's synths after all...

I'm not that greedy, so I want living expenses. (urgent)

Ethics are like currency. There's an absolute sense of security in having them, but in places where they're not in use, they become worthless scraps of paper.

[R-Suzuki: "It's the same as having your heart moved by rainbow-colored energy drinks or skeleton-color shorts, robo."]
Skeleton-color shorts move my heart.

By having people who are friendly to me and hang out with me and support me, my soul is replenished, and I can make music.

Gotta replenish your worn-down soul frequently.

Since the start of this year, I've made nothing but songs that whittle away at my soul... Then again, last year I whittled it away pretty hard too... The act of making music is the act of whittling away your soul... That's why songs are pieces of the soul.

What day is today??? It's the day "murmur twins from O to W" is released into the world!!!!!

Sleeping a lot because of my back hurting...

The sun was still up when I was done at the hospital, so I got cocky and had a car wash and went straight to buy food afterward, which quietly killed my back, so now I'm bedridden... It's not good to get cocky.

The money I planned to use to eat cafe lattes and gyuudon and cutlet curry and sirloin steak and Chateaubriand vanished into surgery expenses... :flying cash: I'll eat them when I'm healthy... What happened to your diet...

Of course, I've still got a little time... I've got to finish some stuff before I'm hospitalized. :flex:

Thank you for your warm messages, everyone!! I'll do my best... :crying:

(I'm joking around a fair bit, but I'm such a scaredy-cat that I freaked out and felt like I was gonna die when I first had contacts put in, and when I got my ears pierced, and when I rode an airplane on my own, so I'm so scared I'm gonna cry.)

Gonna do my best with surgery. :ambulance:

Many years ago, I had my gallbladder removed, so honestly, just living means you lose body parts by the day... Assemble the exposed body parts and create an OSTER-san all your own. The first issue comes with an intervertebral disk at 390 yen. At bookstores nationwide.

When I get out of the hospital, I want to see the sakura. At least grant that meager wish... Sniff...

For half a year, I've had such bad sciatica when I walk that I've spent a lot of time in bed and put on all this blobby fat, but I've got to lose weight once I can move...

I wanted to give a happier report, but I'll heal up and do my best! Surgery's scary! :crying: :crying: :crying:

Regarding the requests I've received, I'll be sure to do them away from my hospitalization days, but while in the hospital, videos and Fanbox updates will go on break... Actually, because of Dr. Corona, it seems visits will be completely forbidden and I'll be super lonely, so someone please talk to me... I've got such a hernia, it's become more of a "hell-near"...

It's a personal matter, but I have a report for everyone.
Come March 13th, I will be undergoing surgery to remove Mr. Lumbar Vertebrae Herniated Disk, with whom I have been acquainted for some time.
I'm feeling a mix of hope and anxiety about this new embarkment in my life, but I hope you'll all continue to provide me guidance and encouragement.

To all middle-schoolers who enjoy making "sec" plural!

Whaddya mean, a hidden gem of a song?! I'm not trying to run or hide!!

I remember that dark year when I spent both my birthday and Christmas in a hospital bed... This is nothing compared to that...

Being at the hospital on both Valentine's and Hinamatsuri is depressing... Medical expenses... :pensive face: :flying cash:

Today's Hinamatsuri, so I'm going to the hospital.

March 2nd, 2020

[Toro: "Humans sometimes get nude on stage, don't they?"
Jun: "Woohoo! Seems like the song and dance can both be pervy-yuri, hop!"]

Biased information.

When I'm not making music, I become emotionally unstable, yet when I am making music, I become emotionally unstable...

Why did I start making this song...? Why did I start making music to begin with...? Why was I born...? Why was life born on Earth...? Why was the the universe born...? Why...

There's a lot of scary stuff I'm uneasy about, but I just have to keep living solemnly...

March 1st, 2020

Here's some Rin-Kiri (?) for you. (????) [Retweets fanart of Rin complaining about Kiritan stealing her songs]

I've never thought about Luka-Rin or Rin-Luka, but I'm interested in what it'd be like. :thinking face:

I get the impression that compared to BL, people are more lenient about reversible pairings in yuri, but I love Miku-Luka and Luka-Miku and Rin-Miku and Miku-Rin, hello. [It's generally established in Japanese fandom that the first person in the ship name is the seme/top.]

Huh?! Today's Luka-Miku day?! [Retweets kissing fish]

I compose totemo yabee [extremely nuts] music

Thinking about it rationally, the work of making a song from nothing is demonically difficult, so aren't I amazing for being able to successfully do it?????

Making songs is so hard I'm gonna cry.

queen of music :princess: :sparkles:

RT @scrubble39 [Retweeting an old tweet of OSTER's that lists "eras" of her music and the major songs in each:] It's crazy how she's the queen of music, isn't it?

The sci-fi-ness of getting sexually harrassed by an AI using words you taught it yourself is incredible.

[Jun: "OSTER, do you have hay fever? After work, make sure to exercise care by washing your female body at a sink."]
Workplace sexual harrassment.

I say it every year, but I wanna change something this year... I mean, I don't mean change something like I'm going to suddenly change my methods. I guess it's more like, I want to reach a moment where everything I've built up thus far holds new meaning...

People who similarly chose a path of following what they like give me courage too. Seeing people who chose the same life becoming happy makes me want to have hope too, so I end up rooting for them...

For now, I'll aim to complete a Kiritan song today...

As such, while it's a shameless request, I'll be able to do my best if you provide your support. (direct marketing)
Support OSTER project on Pixiv Fanbox!

I'm at a loss since the rate at which I produce content absolutely can't keep up with the speed of my ideas, or the speed of the world... I need to keep managing within it somehow. I can't do everything I wanna do, so I have to narrow it down, but what to prioritize...?

To increase the focus on being able to do things I like, I think it's super important to figure out how to monetize the things I have... What should I do... what do I...

Living following the things you like means putting up with ten things you don't like to be able to do one thing you can't help but love. That's how it goes.

Wanna become good at composing...

The Gator Who Dies If He Doesn't Go Viral Once A Day (the gator who badly craves recognition)

February 29th, 2020

I'm sorry, food... I'm sorry... Forgive me, I'll be careful in the future...

After confirming that I forgot to refrigerate my food before my trip, my Tohoku trip has ended.

[Jun: ""Women" are... a food, pretty, and I love them, hop!"]
I don't think that's very nice.

Don't tell me, it was a trap to make me do a search for "inns turkish march"...?

The inn I'm staying at has amazing food and baths, but for some reason, the BGM during all of dinner last night was Turkish March, so I might've been tricked by a fox.

When I think about how there's this girl who'll sing the songs I made like that, it makes me so happy and joyous...

Listening to Kiritan's voice makes me go "I wanna make musiiic!"

On Vacation But I Wanna Finish This Song Soon Disease

February 27th, 2020

OSTER songs are super OSTER-like.

There's only one way to finish a song, and that's to make a song.

Dying! Dying! I'm gonna die!! aug! aug! Slash!! Slash dim!!! aug!!!!

I'm always questioning why people can be so tenacious about things they dislike... I already hardly have enough time in my life devoting it to the things I like, and when I want to find things I like, I look for them, and a life packed with things you like just seems more worthwhile... Though that in itself is just one set of values, of course.

I just don't think you should hurt or rain on the parades of people who like a thing, and if there's something you absolutely have to get out, I think you should talk about it at a pub or something. But I can't change other people, so I'm at least trying to live according to that campaign myself.

I don't particularly like the act of posting your "not for me"s online in a place everyone can see. (She posts, broadcasting her own "not for me." Lose a turn.)

February 26th, 2020

I'm a masochist, so I'm watching a beefsteak episode of 3-Minute Cooking on Hulu while putting up with an empty stomach.

What's going on with Kiritan's hairstyle??? Is it twintails???

I'm really just thinking that super self-centeredly though!!!!

I really feel the same sort of excitement as when I first met Miku-san, and I hope to be able to hype things up alongside everyone...

While I keep on going with lecture videos, I've got a lot on my plate between making songs, making videos, and Fanbox stuff, but I'll do my best! Yeah! And I'll cook properly for myself, too! :flex: :flex: :flex:

[After retweeting all four lecture videos so far:] My first lecture video was this month! I've gained like 7000 followers since then, so I'm massively grateful... :folded hands: :folded hands: :folded hands: And I got to meet Kiritan! Let's keep treasuring our encounters!!

I haven't been able to get much composing done this month, but I tweeted a lot, and got a lot of opportunities for people to notice me, and gained a ton of followers, so it's good!!!!!!!!!

February 25th, 2020

This was no time to be drawing Kiritan.

"Don't take my sooooongs!"
"I mean, say that all you want..."

She's too cute, I can't... #AIKiritan

The episode in which a class with the type of character who always puts "-cchi" at the end of his classmate's names gets a new transfer student, Yurie-chan.

Kiritan's voice and singing style are super cuuute... I could listen to her forever, so I wanna have her sing more songs...

Those who can't help but enjoy thinking about how to make use of a technology are a breed called "creators," and a lot of creators are thinking "This is interesting!" right now, so if you just don't dissuade them and leave them be, you'll get to see lots of interesting stuff in the future.

Regarding AI Kiritan, there will always be people standing at the ready when a new technology appears, but it was the same way with Miku too, y'know. I'd know. 'Cause I'm a Vocaloid old-timer!!

February 24th, 2020

The more concrete situations you include in lyrics, the more I think you get away from the parts that everyone can associate with, but I really like songs that can regardless of this have portrayals so realistic, it's like you can touch them...

I want to depict raw reality, but it's a little too raw as-is, so I think this song came about by projecting raw reality onto fantasy. As a trial run at that approach, this song is dead serious, got it??? A creepy old guy's always dead serious.

I mean, I get called a creepy old guy a lot because these are pervy lyrics, but when you're in love, it's completely natural to wanna have intimate contact with your partner, and wouldn't it be more unnatural to exclude that??? Anything goes in fantasy, but I think the world I want to depict is reality...

Ultimately, they don't teach you in school what love is, or how you should love each other, and between girls especially, you don't know what you're supposed to do, but smiling and saying to enjoy that together and search for something that suits the two of us, isn't Rin-chan cute????

I talk a ton about Whale Rider, but in the second verse, I really like the lyrics that are like "Nobody will teach us a model love or way of loving, so let's fumble around and explore, you and I"...

Whaddya mean tomorrow? It's today... My sense of time's messed up... [It's 5:23 AM.]

I really like the sense that Kiritan is cheerfully singing the :whale: lyrics while definitely not understanding them...

I finished it, so I'll throw it on Fanbox tomorrow! Kiritan Rider!

Champion. :trophy: #AIKiritan

Me 13 years ago: "Wait just a little for me to finish up, so I can say it to you: from my heart, I love you"
Me now: "Told with a playful bite, an "I love you" that can't be voiced"

If you think about it, a poem you wrote 13 years ago spreading far and wide and sticking around is an incredible situation, and there's some awkwardness to it, but I'm super super grateful that it's loved like that... That's what I think, so from my heart, I love you... (one-liner)

[Retweeting Miracle Paint lyrics:] They're nostalgic and embarrassing lyrics, but I think they're pretty! Miracle Paint!

I'm really happy about gaining more Fanbox supporters today... I'm thinking I'll make a full version of Whale Rider and toss it on there. :folded hands:

My songs are all doujinshi, so...

Luka-san feeling like her thinking about eye contact will be seen through and fidgeting for no reason, feeling like her feelings are written on her forehead and thus always hiding her heart with her bangs, is also super cute... The girls living in my songs are all too cute... I'm grateful to the world...

The Rin-chan in OSTER's songs is so cute I can't even... That Rin-chan who was like ""I'll take you back home," you told me, so I laughed "thank you," but really I was about to cry" is so cute I can't even...

Waiting for an AI Rin-chan to be developed...

Check out the original song tooooo!
[VOCALOID] Whale Rider [Kagamine Rin]

Considering a Kiritan song for my next CD...

I just made adjustments to the sheet music, and didn't touch the notes at all. Such tremendous ability...

Had her sing! She's super good and cute... :hearts: :hearts: :hearts: I was lazy and didn't write a key-change, lol #AIKiritan

Everyone kindly pointing out mistakes and things to reference regarding my lecture videos helps me learn too, so I'm truly grateful, and it makes me want to make more. Thank you.

Okay! Gonna mess with Kiritan today.

Sure enough, making theory videos is hard when you haven't properly studied theory. (obvious)

I'm so used to reading b5's that I completely overlooked this...! I guess you just have to specially remember b5, huh.

RT @phanta_stick Excuse me, can I ask a question? If C(#9) is a C chord + D, why is Cm7(b5) not a Cm7 chord + G, but instead changing the G in a Cm7 chord to Gb?

Getting likes like this so consistently, I can really feel the demand for lecture videos...

[Retweeting the chord reading lecture:] 3000 likes! :folded hands:

An artist who can make ice bloom... If you can make ice bloom, then make my heart bloom too...

You need all sorts of techniques to become a pro these days, and I feel like there's more and more people who never properly studied music at school but have to do it on the spot, so I'll be happy if I can be of some aid with the things I struggled with...

Rotating them around is seriously important... Even chords that look complicated at a glance becomes clear to see with some work. A lot of the time, there's generally a core C or Cm-shaped guy (triad??) with some stuff stuck onto it...

I have zero music knowledge, so whenever I had to make chord scores, I went "I don't understand my own songs' chords!" and did my best to learn them. But for me, the task of reverse-engineering the chords from the notes I put in is basically rotating them around until it takes the shape of C-E-G, then counting what number notes are stuck together!

[Retweeting the chord reading lecture:] Please watch the video I uploaded yesterday! :folded hands:

I like people who like themselves.

Isn't it significant when current fashion and the clothes that suit you match up? You can wear that sporty over-size stuff that's been popular since last year even if you're big, so I wanna wear it while it's popular...

And ultimately, whenever I see synths on sale, I buy synths again... Send me news on clothes sales too... A Native Instrument one-piece... A Spectrasonics spring coat... Oogh, my head...

It's hard to deal with a life where I can't enjoy outings due to my health... I wanna go on walks...

Lately, all I'm buying is synths, but I wanna buy cute clothes and go out looking cute sometimes... Dammit!

February 23rd, 2020

I uploaded the flat five one!
Casually Explaining Flat Fives With Minimal Music Theory #3

Most sus4s are like Eve asking you "Do you know how I'm feeling right now?", aren't they??? Cute, huh??

Eve's a cutie.

I gave it a quick mention in the video, but I wanna make a #9 explanation sooooon!! A chord where Eve's emotions are all mixed up between cheerful and gloomy... A chord that sounds fun yet sad, so you can't stop crying.

Let's look at the video and review the composite notes! It's the protag, best bud, gloomy Eve, and the note B.

Because of this calling B a major seventh thing, you get chords like CmM7 (C minor major seventh), where you're not sure if it's minor or major...

I learned it as "This isn't the main thing, but I digress," which is the exact opposite meaning...

Hey wait, I still haven't thrown the flat five video on YouTube... I'll do that later, so just wait.

I think this should let you read the majority of chords... Definitely refer to it if you're like "Chords make no sense to me!"... :folded hands:

I made a chord-reading lecture for people who don't really get music theory, by a people who doesn't really get music theory.
Previous videos here. #OSTERExplains #Dominowns

Watch with English captions here! (Original Twitter video)

But I digress... I don't really get music theory, but this video is me doing my best to explain reading chords in 2 minutes.

First of all, what are chords? ↓It's these guys you see all the time.↓ (Maybe you could call them "chord blueprints"...) (CM7, F, Em7, Am7) You might be like "what are these incantations??", but I'll explain how to read them one element at a time...

First, musical scales. (Do = C, re = D, mi = E, fa = fa, so = G, la = A, ti = B) Each note corresponds to a letter in the alphabet like this! Like, this part is... ♫ super important... ♫ (Remember it please...)

The most basic chord is C. Let's introduce the nutty notes that make it up! C (protag), E (cheery girlfriend), G (best bud). As I've said many times, C and G are best buds. (Their sound is stable.) So then, who is E to C?!

Well, that would be the moody girlfriend (we'll call her Eve). C, D, Eve (cheery)... When Eve's in a good mood: C (read as C major, C E G); cheery. If you lower E by a half-tone... When Eve's in a bad mood: Cm (read as C minor, C Eb G); dark... sad...

Eve's mood determines the brightness of the chord. (C bright, Cm dark - they're opposites.) When you move the trio in parallel keeping the same distance, it makes chords based on other notes like this. (Cm up to Gm)

Next, let's explain all these numbers that are getting tacked on. (CM7(9) - this stuff.) Well, it's surprisingly simple. It's showing the distance from the protag (C). (B = M7 - a little troublesome.) For instance: A (6) + C (C E G) = C6 (C E G A) (easy!)

About the 7 which I called troublesome... For some reason, B is called a major seventh, and the rule is to put a capital M on it... And Bb is a regular seventh. (Ask mom and dad about the reason...) (Bb (7) + C (C E G) = C7 (C E G Bb)) Once you learn that, the other rules follow. (B (M7) + C (C E G) = CM7 (C E G B))

And even with sharps (#) and flats (b), it's the same thing... (D# (9#) + C (C E G) = C(#9) (C E G D#)) Once you know these rules, you can even read complicated chords!

Exercise: Derive the nutty notes that make this up! Cm7(b5) (Half-diminished!) Step 1: Start with the Cm part. C (protag), G (best bud), Eb (gloomy GF). Step 2: The 7 part. Add Bb (non-major 7). Step 3: The (b5) part. G (best bud) → Gb (dangerous relationship). That equals Cm7(b5)! (Done!) With that, you can read about 80% of them.

Lastly, slash chords, and some other special cases. So like, what's playing at the bottom can totally change the impression, right? That's slash chords, basically. Amazing how just changing the bass can form a song to an extent.

Special Case 1: dim ~Refer to last video~ Special Case 2: sus4 ~C F G ♫ Want to touch someday~ Special Case 3: aug ~Refer to first video~ (G#aug - sounds unnatural just jamming it in there...) (CM7(9)(#11)(13) Spicy!!)

The most basic chord is C. Let's introduce the nutty notes that make it up! Do (C, protag), mi (E, cheery girlfriend), so (G, best bud). As I've said many times, Do and So are best buds. (Their sound is stable.) So then, who is Mi to Do?!

Well, that would be the moody girlfriend (we'll call her Mii-chan). Do, re, Mii-chan (cheery)... When Mii-chan's in a good mood: C (read as C major, do mi so); cheery. If you lower mi by a half-tone... When Mii-chan's in a bad mood: Cm (read as C minor, do mi♭ so); dark... sad...

Mii-chan's mood determines the brightness of the chord. (C bright, Cm dark - they're opposites.) When you move the trio in parallel keeping the same distance, it makes chords based on other notes like this. (Cm up to Gm)

Next, let's explain all these numbers that are getting tacked on. (CM7(9) - this stuff.) Well, it's surprisingly simple. It's showing the distance from the protag (do). (Ti = M7 - a little troublesome.) For instance: La (6) + C (do mi so) = C6 (do mi so la) (easy!)

About the 7 which I called troublesome... For some reason, ti is called a major seventh, and the rule is to put a capital M on it... And ti♭ is a regular seventh. (Ask mom and dad about the reason...) (Ti♭ (7) + C (do mi so) = C7 (do mi so ti♭)) Once you learn that, the other rules follow. (Ti (M7) + C (do mi so) = CM7 (do mi so ti))

And even with sharps (#) and flats (b), it's the same thing... (Re# (9#) + C (do mi so) = C(#9) (do mi so re#)) Once you know these rules, you can even read complicated chords!

Exercise: Derive the nutty notes that make this up! Cm7(b5) (Half-diminished!) Step 1: Start with the Cm part. Do (protag), so (best bud), mi♭ (gloomy GF). Step 2: The 7 part. Add ti♭ (non-major 7). Step 3: The (b5) part. So (best bud) → so♭ (dangerous relationship). That equals Cm7(b5)! (Done!) With that, you can read about 80% of them.

Lastly, slash chords, and some other special cases. So like, what's playing at the bottom can totally change the impression, right? That's slash chords, basically. Amazing how just changing the bass can form a song to an extent.

Managed to make it home alive, so I'll make a video.

For about six months now, because of my illness, going out feels like I'm making up my mind every time, but it just feels good outside...

Wanted to go check on the plum blossoms... (old-timer)

Procured a godly song, so I'm calling it okay for me to go on a walk.

I created a godly song...

I want someone to do the hard parts of digital music in my place, and I want someone to pay taxes in my place, and I want someone to live and die in my place.
