Come on man

@watashime-slug-fan your days are numbered.

Would like to apologise for infrequently checking my emails, I am a final year University student working on my dissertation and preparing to do a Masters, so I've been a little bit skittish over the last few months.

With that said, somebody (please let me know if you want to be credited - I chose to exclude any details from this post for the sake of your privacy but am happy to give you proper thanks) very kindly emailed me in November to send a few videos from "some strange website" which are interviews explaining how Soushi and Leo met. I will convert these to .mp4, update the archive with them and then upload them to the YouTube channel.

These videos are titled "Watashime - Comment.asx" (a 2:17 interview with Soushi and Leo), "Watashime - SC24 Comment.asx" (a 1:18 video of Soushi and Leo talking while playing Wii Sports Tennis), and "Watashime - Special Comment.asx" (a 0:31 video of Soushi and Leo talking to the camera)

If anybody has any more information about these that may be relevant, or you're willing to help provide translations / transcriptions, then please do email me or send me a message here.

Note the overlay in the top right - does anybody recognise this branding? It's on all three videos, so I'm going to make an educated guess that these are promotional pieces that were potentially run on a network or blog. I think it could maybe be SoraNews24, as they were active in 2008, but I really don't want to make any claims like that without guaranteeing their validity first.

My first two attempts at scanning the Juuryoku inset. Not particularly great results so far. It's going to look a little bit tattered just naturally, but the scanner I used does not appear to be great.

#I already figured out why it's cutting off though #That's just a scanner autosize setting

Lyric CD Bonus Content Album: リリック (Lyric) Artist: ワタシメスラッグ (Watashime Slug)

A short promotional video of Soshi and Leo, the two main members of Watashime Slug, followed by live performance footage. This is bonus content included on the CD release of Lyric.

Interestingly, whereas the CD release of Fill Me With Flowers included its bonus video content on a second disc, Lyric instead opts to use the Enhanced CD format. This means that the album and bonus content are on the same CD, on different data layers.

Enhanced CD seems to have fallen off in popularity around the end of the 00's and support for them has become spotty so I would like to give special thanks to Andre Wiethoff, developer of Exact Audio Copy, for creating a program that made this experience far less painful than it could have been.

Track: 5. WISH Album: 重力 (Juuryoku) Artist: ワタシメスラッグ (Watashime Slug)

(Does anybody know who actually wrote this song? I recall hearing that it was at least co-written by Tsunku and Watashime Slug were given permission to perform their version for Juuryoku, but I'm worried I just made that up and would like to know if there are any definitive sources for who wrote the song out there)

I have created a YouTube channel for the purposes of archival, as Tumblr seems to have problems with my videos. What little video content I have access to is already uploaded. At some point I will also upload individual singles, as well as full albums.

The videos featured here will be posted on this Tumblr in order with their respective singles' content (I just like the experience of padding this kind of thing out a bit), but you may watch them right now on either the YouTube channel or within the archive.
