Well, you do see live2D clock apps on the iOS like the Mirai Clock 3, which was just released a month ago, or a Oreimo clock app which was in the App store for some time.

Then after hearing about this, surely I would have Google Android users actually complaining why apps like these have not been given some love to Android.

But after seeing this app, some might change this line of thinking. For there’s both an iOS and Android version of it.

“ましろ色シンフォニーあんどろいどあぷり“, is a wonderful live2D clock app by Digimerce, is like the other live2D clock apps out there. If you watched the slice of life, romance anime “ましろ色シンフォニー (Mashiro Iro Shinfoni)”  or “The color of lovers”, you would know who is Sena Airi.

Well she greets you “おはよう” upon opening the application, even when it’s at night.  What I thought is different from the many clock and alarm clock apps is, this actually talks to you.

There is an alarm and time telling function for this clock app.

Tap anywhere on her, she’ll talk with some and different phrases along with emotions, and tap the time for her to tell the time.

Dragging your finger around the screen would make her look where you are dragging the finger. You can also change the attire, which is a school gym class outfit and it must be bought.

Since this app came preloaded with the basic pack of emotions it’s useable, but if you are willing to pay, you can venture more, by buying the respective emotions too.
The background will change according to the time where if it’s in the morning in real life, the background of the clock app will be in the day. Same goes in the night. The location in the background never changed so far, for the 3 days that I’m using this application.

Other functions include the portal to the twitter and the webpage of the anime which will take you away from the app and brings you to your phone’s browser.

The good thing, it’s free to download off the Android Market, But here comes the de-motivational part. . . .

It’s only available on the Japanese Android Market which I think ( meaning you’ll have to get a Japanese Android Keitai ) and I am not to sure whether it could be downloaded in any countries. As when I accessed my phone to download this app with a R800i Android Market app, it says it could not be downloaded in my region which is Singapore. Got this app via an alternative method ( which I don’t really recommend ) as it’s going to be hard finding it.

Since it’s only availible to Japan, these are the phones that this app would work on ( via. Android Market )
On au by KDDI:
-Xperia acro IS11S
-AQUOS PHONE IS11SH
-INFOBAR A01
-G’z one IS11CA

Android Market link :https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.ono.mashiro.airi

And oh. On the market, this same app comes in with another character, Amaha Miu, but the thing is, it’s a paid app unlike Airi’s. So, I would want to have a go on this one too , even though it’ll be sacrificing a little.

The film will be in theaters all over Japan this summer. And for some reason, I feel that the theme is more important now… Than when It was first announced. Either way, I’m very looking forward to watching this movie soon!
