#i've definitely improved a lot as a writer so it'll be nice to see how far my prose has come

[masked-disciple]

Oh! I do have several questions if you're willing to answer them!! And no worries about being busy, I'm actually in my uni class for software QA atm on the break so. :p

How's he been? I think I'm actually the same age as he was when I first fell in love with his voice, and that's wild, and I wonder how he's been and how his career's going. Is he still a full-time musician? A lot easier in your early 20s than 30s, that's for sure, but it'd be awesome if he still got to do that.

So how difficult is it to get his albums / merch to Canada? I have a job and a paycheck now. Buying his discography - an impossible thing in 2014, when you are also 14 - feels like something I should definitely be doing. And I want a Pikochu. I didn't annoy my entire sixth grade class with being a weeb not to buy a Pikochu of my own with my adult money.

Are there any songs I should 100%, absolutely, make sure I listen to? I found out he had new music because I was listening to the Akapiko Magnet from years ago and youtube recommended The Glorious Unseen and I was like "Bro???? When the fuck did this come out???" and then it made me cry a whole lot, because that was a song I would have very much needed at 17, but at 22 I can honestly just appreciate for how good it is, and I'd love to know what other songs I should definitely not miss by accident!

Lastly, and this is a question I can only ask since you already have the context of "I haven't checked in since like 2014", but have he and Sekihan actually confirmed whether or not that's a romance or they're best friends or something else? :p Translations being what they were, it was absolutely never clear to me what their actual relationship was / is, and it's been ages, so maybe they did clarify at some point. In hindsight, I feel like they were leaving it up in the air for views, shits, and giggles, running with the bit and all; but curiosity be damned, I wanna know if they were fucking with us and we were all in on the joke or if Piko's as gay as I am and I just missed it. xD

Thanks for answering, if / when you get the time - I'm just happy to be here again! Gonna be looking forward to that new album and youtube channel for sure, honestly hoped Sekihan would get a Vocaloid of his very own by now but hey, album good, I'm not complaining a bit.

I haven't checked in with Piko since like 2014. There are so many new songs. So many. Holy oh my god. I used to be absolutely obsessed with his music as a preteen. /And/ there's a new Akapiko album coming out in a couple months. I am living like a KING right now I hope you know. ;O;

omg, I opened this when you first sent it and then everything was super busy!

Welcome back!! There is. So Much that's happened in the past 9(???) years! And the Akapiko channel/concert/new album!!!!

Let us know if you have any questions about what you've missed! ٩(｡•́‿•̀｡)۶
