Also, probably how the animes ended up in the west just a few days after airing. Gosh I remember watching naruto and other anime in a horrendous rmvb compresssed quality. They could fit a whole episode in like 30mb.

Very accurate translation by Japanese: 8:21 "チーン" Onomatopoeia. Bell sound maybe 8:33 "あっ そろそろバッテリー切れそうだよ。 大丈夫?" Uh, battery is about to run out.

Doesn't connect very well. 9:01 "あれえー" Uh what? 9:04 "シャットダウンするね" I'm shutting down now. 9:06 "おやすみ" Good night. 9:10 "ぴろりん" Onomatopoeia. notification sound maybe

I had this on my laptop throughout college. My laptop was weird about sleep mode. One time I was pulling it out of my backpack while waiting for class to start only to hear at full blast "Konnichiwa~ Nanami desu!"
in 6th grade (so like, in 2008) I was given a laptop because my handwriting was so hilariously dire that even I couldn't read it. Absolute piece of shit unbearably slow laptop because poor school, poor area. you reignited this nightmare I have where I forgot I was watching anime, it autoplayed when I opened it in class, and the shitbook was so slow it wouldn't respond... fifteen seconds of being stared at as Haruhi yells nonsense into the room

There's also Windows 8 and 10 OS-tans too, and honestly i really intrigued with Touko Madobe (Windows 10 os-tan) because i couldn't find the themes anywhere. I hope you'll review them someday in the future!

Not only she is named Nanami, she is also voiced by Nana Mizuki, a very popular voice actress and incredible singer. And here she's doing a higher cute voice, but she also has some songs with a more powerful lower voice.
Damn you are so lucky! As a tech otaku, I really want this version of Windows 7. FYI: Nanami is included in a general group of androphomorphized inanimatef objects personified characters usually as cute girls are called gijinkas which were a trend during the 2009 to the mid 2010s which culminated in Earth-chan . So yeah. Great video and hopefully more similar content .
well you say it as if gijinka was specifically tied to OS-waifues, but correct me if i'm mistaken, but i believe it's supposed to be the name of a very broad japanese concept of humanizing in a cute-way inanimates-objects on one-hand, you have absolute memes like earth-chan, on the other-hand, you can consider "Aigis" from Persona 3 as a good-example, or Cortana (for the west) from Halo
There is a whole series of official mascots after this, Ai and Yuu Madobe, sisters representing the desktop and mobile interfaces in Windows 8, Claudia representing Azure and the cloud services, Inori Aizawa for Internet Explorer, and of course Madobe Touko the Windows 10 mascot.
the close sound playing so often is actually a bug with windows detecting programs closing and windows is actually detected background tasks closing and therefore playing the noise
for anyone interested, I understood most of her voicelines and it's basically just a cute-proffesional vibe things like "oh, good night!" When exiting windows, and manga onomotopias as "sounds effects". And yes she introduce herself in formal japanese when you switch a theme. The logoff and logon are casual-like japanese lines of "well, see ya later!" And "welcome back" (the one you use when someone is coming back home).
In japan windows computers and even laptops, quite a few of them came with build in tv tuners or abilities to connect to tv networks. I own a couple of those my self, but never bothered to try them out.
I can see why that is with such small apartments in many places. Personally I love those Sony VAIO desktops that came with MD drives built in. Pretty cool idea although I also just know these from RUclips.
@@credit0880 1seg. It was "1 segment" of a Japanese television broadcast channel frequency range(they have 13 segments per channel). They use 1seg in the Phillipines and a few South American countries as well.

@@wibs0n68 If we're going with something based off ubuntu I'd recommend Pop_OS!. Binary compatible with ubuntu and avoids the controversial snap packaging method ubuntu is hellbent on forcing
@@stephanieiwaniuk6088 if I were you, I'd take the risk and try the Fedora KDE spin. Extremely low resource usage (comparing to Ubuntu/Pop!_OS/Fedora Workstation), easy installation, huge community (Red Hat is based on Fedora) and full freedom why is it a risk? it's not really friendly if you are a total beginner and need some proprietary stuff, but it mostly boils down to installing the RPM Fusion repo and getting the desired package from there hmu if you'll need any help
@@wibs0n68 what's your gpu? you should be completely fine if it's something from AMD (radeon or amdgpu drivers, both free and parts of mesa) or NVIDIA (proprietary ones, note that if your card is extremely old you'll need an older kernel and an older X server) and mostly fine when it's Intel (mesa) if you're running an ARM SoC, probably only Qualcomm (mesa) and NVIDIA (nouveau for Tegra) are fine
LMAO, Windows 7's anthropomorphization is voiced by Nana Mizuki, a legendary singer & VA in Japan. Who also sang the ACTUAL theme song for Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker.
I'll just say this right now, as I've found out the hard way when adding Among Us sounds applying RnG, of all the things, to a... program... called Bakageddon: Close Program doesn't only trigger if YOU close a program - some background processes exiting triggers it as well, too, and there's no real pattern to it as you've seen/heard for yourself.
@@eis6570 I was curious how Windows reacts to a ton of samples at once... and man was it worth it, just to see the absolute chaos that can ensue. To say the least, no other purpose than that.
I remember reading Nana Mizuki's list of roles and I did read about Windows 7 having a mascot voiced by her. Though this is the first time I actually heard and seen how the mascot works. It's pretty cool! The design of the mascot kinda looks like a mix of the characters Hinata Hyuga and Rena Lanford (they're also both voiced by Nana Mizuki) in terms of design IMO...
16:10 When the pointer is hovering over Nanami it changes to the multicolor cloverleaf design... And seconds after you say it would have been nice if the theme included custom mouse pointers! Isn't there a way to make the cloverleaf pointer permanent?
Man I was really into the OS-tan thing in the early 00s. Before this particular official version was around a few fan-made versions were already floating around for windows 7.
It reminds me to Inori Aizawa, the anime girl inspired in Internet Explorer. She was announced in mid 2010s for the Asian market, but she was kinda forgotten :( Those voice clips are really cute
Her green design is strikingly similar to Kotori Otonashi from The iDOLM@STER, a massively popular franchise in Japan, and Kotori also serves as the guide in some of the games! The first iDOLM@STER game was released in 2005, so the time frame is pretty close to Windows 7's launch.

When she says "Windows 95" the translation is "Windows 95 mode". It's all very cute and I love her.
huh... I have never even thought microsoft with actual anime characters really surprises me. until today I had no clue at all that this even existed. just wow! I am just in deep shock! Edit: all of these os-tans windows themepacks and programs work on windows 10 if anyone is wondering if it would work with windows 10… it does!
There’s also an os-tan for Windows 8, and 10 Madobe Yu and Ai (Windows 8 has two os-tan’s. On the box shown briefly at the end of the video, Yu is the girl on the forefront of the image and Ai is in the background) Madobe Touko (Windows 10 os-tan)
@@JessycaLunawoona I know but all of the os-tans actually work on newer versions of Windows. Not kidding they all work. I have been going through every single file and to my surprise I didn’t even have to turn on the compatibility mode. This means that it will work on windows vista all the way up to the most recent version of Windows but it will most likely work with future versions of Windows as I have checked its compatibility and works on these versions of Windows Windows 11 system, windows 10, Windows 8.1, windows 8, windows 7 and of course windows vista.
Man this is NOSTALGIC for me. I was hugely into OS-tans and had this whole pack. Hearing that "chiiiiin" sound brought back so many memories, haha. Microsoft definitely pursued the OS-tans for their adoption of Aizawa Inori for Internet Explorer 10 (the starting sounds of her first and last name are IE). There is even an animated short for her that Microsoft supported. This whole thing is a crazy rabbithole of anime culture and corporate adoption and I love it. Great video and love the deep dive!
"七色" (nanairo) generally refers to the seven colors of the rainbow, which based on the colors, seems right. So I'd translate the title of the CD as "Rainbow Generator
I think Windows XP had an official band named Press The Green Button. I liked the music. There were at least 5 songs. Possibly six. And they didn't all come with a new computer, so it was hard to find the last one or two. It would be great to see a video about that band or those songs.
This reminded me of the first Windows 7 computer I had roughly ten years ago. It was an HP Pavilion that came bundled with a TV card I could use with Windows Media Center and I indeed used to use it quite often.
I didn't even know about Nanami when I was still using Windows 7, but somehow looking at her feels...extremely nostalgic? I don't know, her vibes just exudes the early 2010s era for me. Great video by the way!
Interesting video. I've seen pics of Windows OSes anthropomorphized into anime girls, but I didn't really know that some of them were officially Windows mascots in Japan. You learn something new everyday. Well, I think I'm going to go and download the Manami Madobe themepack for my version of Windows 7 now. Keep up the good work.
thank you for making me aware of this hilarious and adorable theme; it actually works on Windows 10 too!! i now have a wonderful little Nanami on the corner of my screen who screams "JA JAAAAN!" every time i restore a window, which will absolutely not get annoying ever at all :D
LOL about the Gentoo logo on the bottom right corner of that advertisement clip of Nanami at 3:34. For those who are trying to find the archive of the theme and buddy its on the Internet Archive. Do a search of "Official Windows Japan Themes and Desktop Buddy" and it'll be the only one to appear (at the time I'm writing this anyway). Apart from the Windows 7 Nanami Madobe stuff, the same archive has the stuff for the Windows 8 OS-tans, the Internet Explorer and Bing ones too.
@@xBZZZZyt Looked similar to me too but I don't think so? Honestly not sure. PlayOnLinux' logo is more similar to a four leaf clover with the middle parts touching, while Nanami's hair clip is more like 4 hearts (in Windows flag colors) and the middle part the hearts doesn't touch.
After months of wait for the windows 7 anime CD video, it has finally released and also this has got to be one of the weirdest things you've ever reviewed ,but anyways. Keep up with the great work Michael MJD!
I got my Intel 80 GB SLC SSD in 2009 for like $200 if I remember correctly. It's not that expensive if you're building a high-end PC for, let's say, $1300 also it still works hah probably not gonna die any time soon people were mostly skeptical about the whole SSD idea ("it costs much and it claims to be faster and it's just a drive so it doesn't improve my computer's performance, also it can die really soon"), but thankfully solid-state drives became a lot more common or maybe not thankfully, because it's hard to be happy with QLC NAND and DRAM-less controllers
I really like this video, I never knew there were Anime versions of OS's or should I say OS-tan, I do love how they designed her and everything. Keep up the good work ^-^
This video actually kinda sparked my initial interest in OS-tans, after I initially set my wallpaper as Nanami Madobe over a Windows 7 default background as a joke. And, I have the sound scheme equipped (and the theme) on my Windows Vista PC, Windows 7 PC, and Windows 11 laptop. In fact, I've even ended up finding out more about the original ones, as I find this stuff really interesting and neat.
Just found this Theme one year ago and I using this Theme to my PC from preview Windows 11 PC version until now and it's cool and still work, hope Microsoft make some new OS-tan for Windows 11
The "Device Connected" sound effect actually says "抜いても大丈夫だよ"(Its okay to disconnect) and Disconnected one is "あっ、繋がったよ"(Hey it's connected) so it's reverse These voice lines may also be voiced by Nana Mizuki(the singer of the included song), whose name is a pun for, well, seven, which could be why they hired her for the job in the first place.
This is so nostalgic! I legit used this theme pack back in the day the whole time I've had Windows 7 on my machine and yeah I did the same thing as you and disabled the "chinnn" sound. XD
Well, there's so much of her in the ultimate anime CD (the one from an hour-long video) and I must admit it's getting *slightly* more NSFW than this. However, while I wouldn't call myself an ultra weaboo, I was just fascinated by anime CD videos on this channel and I appreciate those people's hard work. (yeah, I replied kinda late)
The Nanami desktop buddy thing gave me an idea... maybe MS could do a remake of this (like a Windows 11-Tan), but with the purpose of being kind of a front-end for Cortana... I'll explain: when you say "Hey Windows-tan" (instead of the usual "Hey Cortana") through the PC's microphone/click the taskbar icon/anything that summons Cortana, the W11-Tan appears and acts as your personal assistant, just like Cortana usually does in Windows 10/11, by using Cortana as its engine... so it could do everything that Cortana does, from answering questions to opening apps or scheduling appointments on the calendar :P Of course, this would be exclusive to the Japanese market, or, export it to the rest of the world if it gets to be a success. I'm pretty sure a lot of people here at South America would love this.
This is needlessly cool. I agree on the lack of a custom cursor, and maybe this is just me But the Desktop Buddy got me thinking it was gonna be a, what was it, Desktop Assistant? Stuff like the old Parrot character or Bonzi Buddy, but that's definitely asking for too much. Now one question remains: The cat. What's their deal, what's their name? I somehow feel Kenny Lauderdale would be down to dig up and find an answer, man likes an adventure
If Windows 11 released an OS-tan with an official desktop assistant (that is also useful) that would propel Windows 11 sales at least in Japan lol. Especially if they made both casual and weeb version (where the casual version is presented more as a simplified assistant mascot a.k.a a cuter Siri rather than as a full blown gininka)
12:51 Oh my god this bring up a long long forgotten memory of 8 year old me opening a exe file of my Sony vials previous file and she scaring the crap out of me.
The "Close Program" and "Open Program" sound events in Windows have always been broken, often playing at times when the user hasn't performed any actions.
I guess it would be one of the ultimate end goal for desktop ricing to have your favourite seiyuu to voice the system sound theme. Or it could be invalid since ricing is mainly in customizing the desktop visual.
Great video! I liked that you investigated further to verify the claims spread around online. Refreshingly uncynical. Legitimately curious and just having fun with things!
I once set by mistake the close program sound to a bell or something and I was scared because I didn't know why it was triggering, a couple of days later I discovered that it even triggered with programs you couldn't see. I could see someone using this but what a weird feature.
loved my hauppauge tv tuner card, it served me well for as long as I had cable tv and the computer served double duty as a media center. not sure about listing it as recommended hardware though! This was awesome, I hope you cover the Later OS tans also!
The designer is Wakaba, illustrator that work for CyberStep. I'm surprised you managed to find all that obscure information but somehow don't know the designer when it's even mentioned in the wikipedia entry lol
6:53 oh boy this didn't age well lol Context: dx10 is so bad in performance that most of the game developers decide to skip over from dx10 to dx11 also good video mjd!
@@MrFlox888 Also helps OpenGL isn't Windows-only, so work on it ensured a game back then would also have an easier time being ported to Mac for example
I rememebered that this, along with WinXP, they were the favorite OS-Tans of the Internet back in the day. They even made browser based OS-Tans too, like Mozilla Firefox. Its so cute :3 I downloaded the files from the internet archive, installed it on Windows 10 and it works perfectly :3 Not going to change my theme for a while now XD Also Nana Mizuki is a well known Japanese Pop Artist but she also has done a lot of anime voice acting roles too. her major roles have been: -Love Hina-Nyamo Namo -Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha-Fate Testarossa -Naruto-Hinata Hyuuga -Princess Tutu-Rue / Princess Kraehe -Fullmetal Alchemist-Wrath -Rosario + Vampire-Moka Akashiya -Full Metal Alchemis-Lan Fan -Blood C-Saya Kisaragi -The Seven Deadly Sins-Margaret Liones -Persona 5-Ann Takamaki and she is one of my favorite Voice Actress too. definitely check her music out and anime/video game roles, you won't be disappointed

Not only she is named Nanami, she is also voiced by Nana Mizuki, a very popular voice actress and incredible singer. And here she's doing a higher cute voice, but she also has some songs with a more powerful lower voice.
Even the VA has 7 in her name eh
After quite a long time, finally we got him to do an episode on this Windows anime CD.
Damn you are so lucky! As a tech otaku, I really want this version of Windows 7.
FYI: Nanami is included in a general group of androphomorphized inanimatef objects personified characters usually as cute girls are called gijinkas which were a trend during the 2009 to the mid 2010s which culminated in Earth-chan . So yeah. Great video and hopefully more similar content .
Just get the theme for it, there's nothing really special besides the themes
3010s?
Hasn't it already been archived? I believe you can just download it if you want.
@@MondeSerenaWilliams I think he probably wants the actual disc, he did call himself a tech otaku.
well you say it as if gijinka was specifically tied to OS-waifues,
but correct me if i'm mistaken, but i believe it's supposed to be the name of a very broad japanese concept of humanizing in a cute-way inanimates-objects
on one-hand, you have absolute memes like earth-chan,
on the other-hand, you can consider "Aigis" from Persona 3 as a good-example, or Cortana (for the west) from Halo
There is a whole series of official mascots after this, Ai and Yuu Madobe, sisters representing the desktop and mobile interfaces in Windows 8, Claudia representing Azure and the cloud services, Inori Aizawa for Internet Explorer, and of course Madobe Touko the Windows 10 mascot.
To this day Touko remains the final Microsoft-made OS-Tan, as Windows 11 has yet to recieve an official girl
the close sound playing so often is actually a bug with windows detecting programs closing and windows is actually detected background tasks closing and therefore playing the noise
I like to think it’s her trying to get ur attention
AKA she’s sentient and REAL it’s rlly funny tho lol
for anyone interested, I understood most of her voicelines and it's basically just a cute-proffesional vibe things like "oh, good night!" When exiting windows, and manga onomotopias as "sounds effects". And yes she introduce herself in formal japanese when you switch a theme. The logoff and logon are casual-like japanese lines of "well, see ya later!" And "welcome back" (the one you use when someone is coming back home).

In japan windows computers and even laptops, quite a few of them came with build in tv tuners or abilities to connect to tv networks. I own a couple of those my self, but never bothered to try them out.
Wouldn't work anywhere outside japan cause they use different frequencies for radio. That probably everyone else uses for TV.
I can see why that is with such small apartments in many places.
Personally I love those Sony VAIO desktops that came with MD drives built in.
Pretty cool idea although I also just know these from RUclips.

There where flipphones with tv tuners in japan...
I imagine a lot of people living in the small city apartments would just use their laptops to watch TV to save space.
This is definatley unique if nothing else, props to Microsoft for creativity! Interesting going through it all with you, thanks for showing us!
I think the sounds would be fun at first but get annoying real fast lol, I learned this getting too creative with custom sounds/themes back in my teens, booting up my old computer is quite an experience now haha
Thank you so much for your videos. They have given me the confidence to troubleshoot computer problems on my own. Was actually able to flash a BIOS yesterday and fix my mostly broken laptop! Watching you troubleshoot your tech problems have really helped me fix my own. Thanks so much!
@MrHolyKindness I'm actually considering it! I'm just not sure which version to try. I have a 2018 hp dual core laptop, 8gb of ram. Any recommendations?
A small start is starting with Ubuntu, a very common distro.
I wish my GPU works on linux
@@wibs0n68 If we're going with something based off ubuntu I'd recommend Pop_OS!. Binary compatible with ubuntu and avoids the controversial snap packaging method ubuntu is hellbent on forcing
@@stephanieiwaniuk6088 if I were you, I'd take the risk and try the Fedora KDE spin. Extremely low resource usage (comparing to Ubuntu/Pop!_OS/Fedora Workstation), easy installation, huge community (Red Hat is based on Fedora) and full freedom
why is it a risk? it's not really friendly if you are a total beginner and need some proprietary stuff, but it mostly boils down to installing the RPM Fusion repo and getting the desired package from there
hmu if you'll need any help
@@wibs0n68 what's your gpu? you should be completely fine if it's something from AMD (radeon or amdgpu drivers, both free and parts of mesa) or NVIDIA (proprietary ones, note that if your card is extremely old you'll need an older kernel and an older X server) and mostly fine when it's Intel (mesa)
if you're running an ARM SoC, probably only Qualcomm (mesa) and NVIDIA (nouveau for Tegra) are fine
LMAO, Windows 7's anthropomorphization is voiced by Nana Mizuki, a legendary singer & VA in Japan. Who also sang the ACTUAL theme song for Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker.
I'll just say this right now, as I've found out the hard way when adding Among Us sounds applying RnG, of all the things, to a... program... called Bakageddon:
Close Program doesn't only trigger if YOU close a program - some background processes exiting triggers it as well, too, and there's no real pattern to it as you've seen/heard for yourself.
Yeah I opened up task manager off camera and saw that background processes closing would trigger the sound. Definitely will get annoying lol.
@@MichaelMJD Would be best to remove her closing program voiceline incase it starts to get annoying lmfao
But...why did you do it?
@@eis6570 I was curious how Windows reacts to a ton of samples at once... and man was it worth it, just to see the absolute chaos that can ensue. To say the least, no other purpose than that.
@@ThatLinuxDude i see....
Did you put the intro at each round for the start-up sound?
I remember reading Nana Mizuki's list of roles and I did read about Windows 7 having a mascot voiced by her. Though this is the first time I actually heard and seen how the mascot works. It's pretty cool! The design of the mascot kinda looks like a mix of the characters Hinata Hyuga and Rena Lanford (they're also both voiced by Nana Mizuki) in terms of design IMO...
16:10 When the pointer is hovering over Nanami it changes to the multicolor cloverleaf design... And seconds after you say it would have been nice if the theme included custom mouse pointers! Isn't there a way to make the cloverleaf pointer permanent?
You can probably rip it from the EXE, I'd assume
@@noxxyy Makes sense, but sounds like it would take a sizeable amount of nerdy wisdom to do that.

Man I was really into the OS-tan thing in the early 00s. Before this particular official version was around a few fan-made versions were already floating around for windows 7.
This is actually a cool stuff to discover, some themes are very great to explore about how they made it. The video is pretty interesting
I always loved the Windows 7 anime mascot, their animations is way ahead of it’s time
This is pretty neat! I love Os-Tan stuff.
back in the day I used to rock this theme on my Windows 7 install,
really cool that you finally did a video on the os-tan cd.
I've been aware of OS-tan stuff forever, but I've not kept up with it. Nanami-chan is so cute. Thanks for posting this!
I love how the "failure" sound files on this sounds genuinely concerned
It reminds me to Inori Aizawa, the anime girl inspired in Internet Explorer. She was announced in mid 2010s for the Asian market, but she was kinda forgotten :(
Those voice clips are really cute
Her green design is strikingly similar to Kotori Otonashi from The iDOLM@STER, a massively popular franchise in Japan, and Kotori also serves as the guide in some of the games! The first iDOLM@STER game was released in 2005, so the time frame is pretty close to Windows 7's launch.
it definitely is a reference to kotori
Not to mention that Microsoft themselves used to sponsor The Idolmaster project back in its early years
So it feels like going back to the full circle

Can't wait for Windows 10's OS-tan CD because she already exists!
The themepack was archived just as of recently, it's called "Madobe Family 2015 Winter".
huh...
I have never even thought microsoft with actual anime characters really surprises me.
until today I had no clue at all that this even existed. just wow!
I am just in deep shock!
Edit: all of these os-tans windows themepacks and programs work on windows 10 if anyone is wondering if it would work with windows 10… it does!
There’s also an os-tan for Windows 8, and 10
Madobe Yu and Ai (Windows 8 has two os-tan’s. On the box shown briefly at the end of the video, Yu is the girl on the forefront of the image and Ai is in the background)
Madobe Touko (Windows 10 os-tan)
@@JessycaLunawoona I know but all of the os-tans actually work on newer versions of Windows.
Not kidding they all work. I have been going through every single file and to my surprise I didn’t even have to turn on the compatibility mode. This means that it will work on windows vista all the way up to the most recent version of Windows but it will most likely work with future versions of Windows as I have checked its compatibility and works on these versions of Windows Windows 11 system, windows 10, Windows 8.1, windows 8, windows 7 and of course windows vista.
They have a characther for powershell as well. It only appers in the setup for it on certain versions
Man this is NOSTALGIC for me. I was hugely into OS-tans and had this whole pack. Hearing that "chiiiiin" sound brought back so many memories, haha. Microsoft definitely pursued the OS-tans for their adoption of Aizawa Inori for Internet Explorer 10 (the starting sounds of her first and last name are IE). There is even an animated short for her that Microsoft supported.
This whole thing is a crazy rabbithole of anime culture and corporate adoption and I love it. Great video and love the deep dive!
12:50 Official Microsoft approved massive jiggle physics earthquake on your taskbar 😂
And the good thing, it's not r34.

"七色" (nanairo) generally refers to the seven colors of the rainbow, which based on the colors, seems right. So I'd translate the title of the CD as "Rainbow Generator
I think Windows XP had an official band named Press The Green Button. I liked the music. There were at least 5 songs. Possibly six. And they didn't all come with a new computer, so it was hard to find the last one or two. It would be great to see a video about that band or those songs.
thanks for sharing the theme pack, it's SO CUTE, using it on my windows 7 rig :)
Finally, I've been waiting for this... and it looks fantastic! 😇👍🏻💙
This reminded me of the first Windows 7 computer I had roughly ten years ago. It was an HP Pavilion that came bundled with a TV card I could use with Windows Media Center and I indeed used to use it quite often.
I didn't even know about Nanami when I was still using Windows 7, but somehow looking at her feels...extremely nostalgic? I don't know, her vibes just exudes the early 2010s era for me.
Great video by the way!
Interesting video. I've seen pics of Windows OSes anthropomorphized into anime girls, but I didn't really know that some of them were officially Windows mascots in Japan. You learn something new everyday. Well, I think I'm going to go and download the Manami Madobe themepack for my version of Windows 7 now. Keep up the good work.
Pro tip: you can drag notification tray icons out of the pop-up into the normal area.
thank you for making me aware of this hilarious and adorable theme; it actually works on Windows 10 too!! i now have a wonderful little Nanami on the corner of my screen who screams "JA JAAAAN!" every time i restore a window, which will absolutely not get annoying ever at all :D
link?
@@ciel37yearsago42 in the description
Which uhh, which of the files is the Nanami one?
Because I cannot tell like at ALL.
"You also got a cat over here, that's pretty cool"
I don't know why but that line absolutely floored me.
1:08 Besides the character named with number 7 (nana), the name of the voice actress also contains "7": 水樹奈々(Nana Mizuki)
LOL about the Gentoo logo on the bottom right corner of that advertisement clip of Nanami at 3:34.
For those who are trying to find the archive of the theme and buddy its on the Internet Archive. Do a search of "Official Windows Japan Themes and Desktop Buddy" and it'll be the only one to appear (at the time I'm writing this anyway).
Apart from the Windows 7 Nanami Madobe stuff, the same archive has the stuff for the Windows 8 OS-tans, the Internet Explorer and Bing ones too.
playonlinux logo?
@@xBZZZZyt Looked similar to me too but I don't think so? Honestly not sure.
PlayOnLinux' logo is more similar to a four leaf clover with the middle parts touching, while Nanami's hair clip is more like 4 hearts (in Windows flag colors) and the middle part the hearts doesn't touch.
How many weebs do you think downloaded this theme back in 2009
Tooooo maaaannnnyyyyy
i did and i didn’t even know she was an OS-tan i just wanted the sound effects
millions
Alot
Yes.
After months of wait for the windows 7 anime CD video, it has finally released and also this has got to be one of the weirdest things you've ever reviewed ,but anyways. Keep up with the great work Michael MJD!
this.... this is amazing... ive been waiting for this since your previous video mentioning it... im so happy...
Wow they recommend an SSD in 2009. They were more expensive back then and so few people had them
I got my Intel 80 GB SLC SSD in 2009 for like $200 if I remember correctly. It's not that expensive if you're building a high-end PC for, let's say, $1300
also it still works hah
probably not gonna die any time soon
people were mostly skeptical about the whole SSD idea ("it costs much and it claims to be faster and it's just a drive so it doesn't improve my computer's performance, also it can die really soon"), but thankfully solid-state drives became a lot more common
or maybe not thankfully, because it's hard to be happy with QLC NAND and DRAM-less controllers
so far the best video and contribution of downloads that I have seen on this channel, excellent
My phone: Michael MJD made a new video
Me: instantly click it
I really like this video, I never knew there were Anime versions of OS's or should I say OS-tan, I do love how they designed her and everything. Keep up the good work ^-^
I Did remember using this theme on my Windows 7 Dell Laptop back then, and quite to surprise it really was not bad at all!
This video actually kinda sparked my initial interest in OS-tans, after I initially set my wallpaper as Nanami Madobe over a Windows 7 default background as a joke. And, I have the sound scheme equipped (and the theme) on my Windows Vista PC, Windows 7 PC, and Windows 11 laptop.
In fact, I've even ended up finding out more about the original ones, as I find this stuff really interesting and neat.
MJD uploads? My morning just got better!
Or maybe night
Good morning! It's 12am here.
You and Computer Clan are my favorite channels on RUclips!!!!!!
Glad to hear that! Thank you
I tried out the theme on Windows 11, and it actually works
Yes it work on my computer windows 11
5:11
"You also got a cat over here so that's pretty cool." 😺
Just found this Theme one year ago and I using this Theme to my PC from preview Windows 11 PC version until now and it's cool and still work, hope Microsoft make some new OS-tan for Windows 11
Me too, m8.
Windows 11 is out for like almost year and no OS-tan yet.
The "Device Connected" sound effect actually says "抜いても大丈夫だよ"(Its okay to disconnect) and Disconnected one is "あっ、繋がったよ"(Hey it's connected) so it's reverse
These voice lines may also be voiced by Nana Mizuki(the singer of the included song), whose name is a pun for, well, seven, which could be why they hired her for the job in the first place.
This is so nostalgic! I legit used this theme pack back in the day the whole time I've had Windows 7 on my machine and yeah I did the same thing as you and disabled the "chinnn" sound. XD
Omg! Memories! I actually had the audio pack for from this for windows seven! Even had the homepage for internet explorer! Such memories!
I remember there are also Internet Explorer-tan, Inori Aizawa. I believe that's in Windows 8 era (IE 10) (?). There are also theme pack for that
Fun fact that is created by Microsoft Singapore, for AFA (anime festival asia) so not just japan doing it.
I saw the ad, and many other things after I saw this CD in the video, I researched it, archived it, and went all in the Lore.
OS-tans are so goddamn adorable and I'm so happy that this theme exists-
thanks for that video :D that was such a nostaligc trip for me, because i was using the theme back then with all the sounds enabled ^^
This is surreal. It's giving XP themes vibes and I love it. Too bad they didn't do more with her; I can't imagine it not making money.

Well, there's so much of her in the ultimate anime CD (the one from an hour-long video) and I must admit it's getting *slightly* more NSFW than this. However, while I wouldn't call myself an ultra weaboo, I was just fascinated by anime CD videos on this channel and I appreciate those people's hard work.
(yeah, I replied kinda late)
The Nanami desktop buddy thing gave me an idea... maybe MS could do a remake of this (like a Windows 11-Tan), but with the purpose of being kind of a front-end for Cortana... I'll explain: when you say "Hey Windows-tan" (instead of the usual "Hey Cortana") through the PC's microphone/click the taskbar icon/anything that summons Cortana, the W11-Tan appears and acts as your personal assistant, just like Cortana usually does in Windows 10/11, by using Cortana as its engine... so it could do everything that Cortana does, from answering questions to opening apps or scheduling appointments on the calendar :P Of course, this would be exclusive to the Japanese market, or, export it to the rest of the world if it gets to be a success. I'm pretty sure a lot of people here at South America would love this.
This is needlessly cool. I agree on the lack of a custom cursor, and maybe this is just me
But the Desktop Buddy got me thinking it was gonna be a, what was it, Desktop Assistant?
Stuff like the old Parrot character or Bonzi Buddy, but that's definitely asking for too much.
Now one question remains: The cat. What's their deal, what's their name?
I somehow feel Kenny Lauderdale would be down to dig up and find an answer, man likes an adventure
If Windows 11 released an OS-tan with an official desktop assistant (that is also useful) that would propel Windows 11 sales at least in Japan lol. Especially if they made both casual and weeb version (where the casual version is presented more as a simplified assistant mascot a.k.a a cuter Siri rather than as a full blown gininka)
Windows and Anime, 2 of my favorite things combined. Microsoft in Japan was amazing.:-)
I ran it by accident on my main pc, now I know that it works on Windows 10!
It even works on Windows 11 too
neat bro now just need a pc 💔
Wait what
cool
It works on windows 10?
Definitely an anime-themed product. Even noticed a bit of "gainaxing" when the character popped up from the bottom of the screen.
12:51 Oh my god this bring up a long long forgotten memory of 8 year old me opening a exe file of my Sony vials previous file and she scaring the crap out of me.
The "Close Program" and "Open Program" sound events in Windows have always been broken, often playing at times when the user hasn't performed any actions.
it triggers when background processes close. kinda retarded, ngl.
That's background processes
I used both the theme and desktop buddy back in the day. What a throwback.
Maybe the Desktop buddy program is supposed to animate and talk when sound effects take place in the theme pack. Nice video btw.
Nanami’s voice is so adorable!
Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
aaaah ^w^
I guess it would be one of the ultimate end goal for desktop ricing to have your favourite seiyuu to voice the system sound theme.
Or it could be invalid since ricing is mainly in customizing the desktop visual.
@Michael MJD I was in this Video you put my comment in your Video thank you, also thank you for doing the Nanami Madobe Video.
I've seen this character before but never knew it was a official design.
Same . I never knew it was a official release. Damn if i knew about this version of windows 7 before . I definitely using it

Great video! I liked that you investigated further to verify the claims spread around online. Refreshingly uncynical. Legitimately curious and just having fun with things!
Thank you, I appreciate that!
I once set by mistake the close program sound to a bell or something and I was scared because I didn't know why it was triggering, a couple of days later I discovered that it even triggered with programs you couldn't see. I could see someone using this but what a weird feature.
loved my hauppauge tv tuner card, it served me well for as long as I had cable tv and the computer served double duty as a media center. not sure about listing it as recommended hardware though!
This was awesome, I hope you cover the Later OS tans also!
The voice actress is Nana Mizuki
I watched this on a Thursday. You made a throwback on verge. That’s right, throwback Thursday
I'd been waiting for this video.
I always thought Nanami's design went pretty well Windows 7.
just a note!! the cat she has is a reference to DOS-cat which is a fan-made representation of MS-DOS as a os-tan-cat-thing
