The eighth Japanese Vocaloid and the firstnote Vocaloid released by AH-Software (along with the first in their "Vocal Artist" series), Miki was also the first Vocaloid to have a demo CD included with her release (which made many fans think her announcement might be a Troll).She is voiced by Furukawa Miki of Supercar.- Action Girl: At least according to Lience
, the appropriately titled Keep Yourself Alive
and in Infinity Labyrinth
made by Kurozumi-P.
- Animal Motifs: Her illustrator has her hoodie pulled up with bear-like ears and a puffball tail here
. She's also been depicted with sheep thanks to that same hoodie and ear muffs which you can also see here
and here
.
- Artificial Human: According to the information that came from the 2012 redesign, miki was designed to look like she was made out of a inorganic material and was conceptualised as an android. She is covered in muscles made of various materials such as carbon nanotubes, but were made loose to give a mild deformed look about them. Averted for her V4 design however, which abandoned the concept.
- Cleavage Window: Her V4 redesign has two diamond-shaped ones, though there really isn't anything to show off.
- Idiot Hair: A HUGE one vaguely shaped like a question mark.
- Fingerless Gloves: In her unofficial 2012 concept art.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Inverted, since most of the songs she sings/appears in are cheerful and upbeat.
- Ridiculously Human Robots: Downplayed - she has robotic joints.
- Surprisingly Good English: Like you
never expected.
- Symbol Motif Clothing: She's generally associated with stars.
- Tsundere: This song
portrays her as a type B.
- Updated Re-release: She received a V4 update with a Natural voicebank.
- Vague Age: Her body is designed to look like that of a child, but also gives her the overall look of approx 14 years old. Having an immature-looking body allowed more easily for her to be passed off as Younger than She Looks, similar to how Miku and Rin could do the same since they lacked mature looking bodies. See also Artificial Human above.
- Zettai Ryouki: In the PV Liar
and in her unofficial redesign by Yusuke Kozaki
◊.
Kaai Yuki

Yuki is notable for being the first "child voice" Vocaloid released, meaning that her vocal samples are from a young girl instead of an adult. She is portrayed as a 9 year old elementary school student, and Hiyama Kiyoteru is her teacher. She is distributed by AH-Software and is the ninth (or tenth) Japanese Vocaloid.- Cheerful Child: Official artwork by AH-Software and many of her songs portray her as such.

His voice provider is the Japanese singer Kiyoshi Hiyama.On weekends, he's the vocalist of a rock band named Ice Mountain
- Bishōnen:
- If his original look above isn't enough, see "Hot Teacher" below.
- His bandmates in Ice Mountain
◊ are catching up there too.
- Friend to All Children: Again according to the artbook. Likely the main reason he's a school teacher.
- The Glasses Come Off: At first, fans speculate that while Kiyoteru is more mild-mannered and professional, he does have a bit of a wild side when he takes off his glasses...
And then the official Ice Mountain booklet describes him as such, confirming the speculation. However, he can't keep them off for too long as it would result in eyestrain.
- Face of the Band: Of his Five-Man Band Ice Mountain.

- The Lancer: Akito Hiyama - Guitar; Kiyoteru's childhood friend.
- The Big Guy: Tohma Azuchi - Bass; the Delinquent of the band, tends to get into trouble.

◊.
- And if that wasn't enough for you, his V4 boxart for his Ice Mountain persona is even more
◊ attractive.
- And if that wasn't enough for you, his V4 boxart for his Ice Mountain persona is even more

Artwork for VOCALOID 2
Click here to see her VOCALOID 4 Natural artwork
Released by AH-Software (not in the Vocal Artist series) and the fourteenth Japanese one, she was created in conjunction with Sanrio for their Together with Hello Kitty! video game project. Thus, she was an established character before the Vocaloidification. Her character was created by illustrator okama.

- She Is All Grown Up: The design
for her Soft voicebank shows an older and more mature Iroha.
- Short Hair with Tail
- Updated Re-release: Received a V4 update with "Natural" and "Soft" versions of the voicebank. Her Soft voicebank allows her to sing slower songs better than her original voicebank.
- Vocal Dissonance: Hotly contested, as some believe it doesn't fit her design while others believe it's just tomboyish.
- Her voice provider being revealed to be male gives this trope some credence.
- Some producers are able to subvert this stereotype either by raising her voice (with good tuning) like in Banton Summer Sky
, or by making her sing opera like this amazing rendition of Ave Maria
(potentially giving the classic style Vocaloids like Prima and Miriam a run for their money).
Yuzuki Yukari



- Alliterative Name: Yuzuki Yukari.

- Purple Eyes
- Updated Re-release: She was updated for V4, receiving three new voicebanks known as "Onn", "Lin" and "Jun". Her Onn voicebank is whispery, while her Lin voicebank is more powerful, and her Jun voicebank is the closest to her original voice.

- The Faceless
- Katanas Are Just Better: A wakizashi, technically.
- Nice Hat: In his winning design
◊ in 2011 VocaFes contest.

- Nonstandard Character Design: It's what's to expect from the guy who did art for Final Fantasy.

- Flower Motifs: Flower's two designs are officially known as her "Pistil" form (V3) and her "Stamen" form (V4).
- Dark Is Not Evil: A minor example. She wears a lot of black and purples, but she is a Kuudere.

- She's Got Legs
- Skunk Stripe: Her hair is mostly white, with one chunk dyed black.
- Updated Re Release: She was updated to V4 on 16 July, and given a new design.

- Zettai Ryouiki: Type A.
Fukase

- Body Horror: Whatever the hell is up with the left side of his face. No one's really certain if it's burns, an unnerving pattern of veins, scales, or something else entirely. But whatever it is, it's kind of freaky. Not to mention that fully blood red eye.
- Initially in the Pixiv contest drawings, his arm didn't have any anomalies; it was merely bandaged. However for the boxart cleanup, the arm became just as strange as his face.
- Cartoon Creature: Point, the small white humanoid hanging off of his cane in his official art.
- Cool Hat: That silly looking cartoon top hat on his head.
- Curtains Match the Window: Curly red hair to go with his red eyes.
- Dark Horse Victory: Most people thought that the design made by Miwasiba (who also did the design for V4 flower) would be sure to win the design contest. And indeed, there was a lot of votes for Siba's design during the first leg of the contest. Instead, the winning design came right on the very last day before judging.
- Hair Decorations: Wears a small, black flag with a white cross on the side of his head.
- Vocal Dissonance: His voice sounds like that of a teenage boy's. His character design makes him look around Oliver's age.

Dorothy (Miku), the Scarecrow (Kaito), the Tin Girl (Luka) and the Vegetarian Lions (Rin and Len) convince her to return the guitar so that the Wizard will grant her wish for friends. It's also implied that her song was in mourning for her sister.
- Only One Name: Although she has a fanmade last name, Sakine, which is officially used for her teenaged form.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: In Daughter of Vengeance, she leads the rebellion against Rin, who she plans to execute, but upon discovering that Len has pulled a Twin Switch with Rin, she kills him anyway, because he's the only person she (Rin) loves and Meiko wants to make her suffer like she suffered.
- While the song it's not canon, it's not far off.
- She's Got Legs: Her V3 official artwork

- Bishōnen: Portrayed as such in a good ratio of his videos (the best known example being Cantarella

- Chick Magnet: In Prince of Blue.
- Covered Up: His song "Crescent Moon" was actually a song his "Senbonzakura" character sang in its play adaptation first. It was one of the only songs from the show that got its own PV (by the same artist and composer, none the less) and is the far better known version.
- Crazy Jealous Guy: In "Story About A Poor Rabbit".
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: There is a whole nicovideo tag called "Kaito no Honki" (Kaito's seriousness). It contains awesome. Loads and loads of awesome.

Hatsune Miku

- Action Girl: She's the second strongest character in Synchronicity, second only to the dragon she's forced to serve. There are also two videos that show how badass she is...
- This one
(also with slow motion
), and
- This one
. It seems to rely on suggestive angles a few times. Besides, after her one moment of klutziness, she pulls off an even more Badass trick.
- This one
- A-Cup Angst: Most notably in one PV of "World is Mine" where she slaps her love interest with a leek for commenting on her breasts.
- Anti-Gravity Clothing: Her square ribbons are stated to hold her hair in place without physically touching it. This is averted in her V4X design.
- Alternate Character Reading: The name "Miku" is a pun based on the fact that the kanji can also be read as mirai, or "future."
- Arc Number: 39 (mi-ku). Her concert is 39's Giving Day (March 9), and her Facebook page needed 39,390 likes for her to get an English bank. Entertainingly, '3-9' can also be read as 'san-kyu', or 'thank you'.
- Artificial Human: In Test Tube Princess.
- Bare Your Midriff: Her new official "American" design
.
- Berserk Button: Do not touch
Miku's
panties.
It never ends well. Same applies to her leek.

- Sukone Tei, if stealing "Declare War On All Vocaloid" from Tei means anything.

- Bilingual Bonus: Her English voicebank, though only played straight with her V3 bundled package available since September 26, 2013 (the English voicebank which came out earlier can be purchased separately like Megpoid English).
- Brainwashed and Crazy: In Synchronicity. Len frees her of the mask that made her like this in the second song of the three-part series.
- Also this way in Festival of Asylum.
- Breakout Character: Probably the most famous Vocaloid of them all; even many people who don't know about Vocaloid are dimly aware of who she is.
- Character Celebrity Endorsement: She starred in a series of Toyota Corolla commercials
(for the USA), as a result of Toyota being the main sponsor of her live concert at Anime Expo 2011 in Los Angeles. It happened again with Lux shampoo when the company sponsored the 2016 Hatsune Miku Symphony.
- The Chosen One: Pretty much this in Project DIVA X. It's up to her and the player to restore the world of music. Everyone else? Nah.
- Cloudcuckoolander: For example...
- Dangerously Short Skirt: She wears one in the Project DIVA video
for Cantarella.
- Determinator: In the 3D PV of Hello, Planet, she doesn't let little things like her arm falling off from journeying across the devastated post-apocalyptic world to find her master.
- Does Not Like Shoes: Her Append appearance has her barefoot.
- The Dragon: Both literally and in terms of the trope, but trapped in human form, in Synchronicity.
- Genki Girl: Her portrayal in Project DIVA 2nd.
- Girlish Pigtails: All the way to the ground!
- Grand Romantic Gesture: In 1/6
, in which she helps her depressed boyfriend by taking him up to a huge tower so that he can feel "elevated".
Miku: The sun gives its lightTo let the moon glowCan you let me help you like them? - Hotter and Sexier: Her Append boxart has been accused of being oversexualized.
- Her English voicebank design looks like an older, more adult version of her, including slightly larger breasts, and more piercing looking eyes. Behold.
- Her English voicebank design looks like an older, more adult version of her, including slightly larger breasts, and more piercing looking eyes. Behold.
- Iconic Outfit: Over all of the design variations that she's gone through, the one outfit that's held up is her original V2 design.
- Jack-of-All-Trades: As of her Append upgrade; her six extra voicebanks theoretically should give her the proper tonal qualities to produce most kinds of music now. Append was created in response to user complaints that Miku's voice was too cute and cheery for some of the songs people wanted to make with her.
- Leotard of Power: Her Append design is made of this. Would've been taken more literally if she had a Power voicebank.
- Mascot: Crypton uses her a lot to promote themselves.
- Meaningful Name: 'Hatsune' means 'first sound'; Miku was the first Japanese Vocaloid2 character to be produced.
- Her full name means "First sound of the future."
- Multicolored Hair: Her English voicebank design sports varying shades of neon colors on her hair, from dark green to lime, and even purple.
- Our Dragons Are Different: She's actually a dragon trapped in human form and forced to ensure that no-one interferes with the process of offering girls to die to appease the other and even stronger dragon in Synchronicity.
- Psycho Lesbian: To Gumi in Escape The Princess
.
- Rapunzel Hair: It goes all the way down to her ankles for crying out loud!
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Towards Tei in the first song Tei made.
- Sailor Fuku: "Ha2ne Miku", a non-idol version of Miku, is often her default outfit in the DIVA series. This was retired by F, which moved out of the school setting.
- Lazy Bum: In a good number of her more humorous songs she talks about how she can't stay awake or complains about working (Triple Baka, Take It Easy and World is Mine come to mind).
- She also sings Sloth's song in Mothy's Seven Deadly Sins series.
- Smark: BE MIKU
got her labeled as one.
- Spotlight-Stealing Squad: She's one of the most popular out of all the Vocaloids, to the point that some people don't realize other Vocaloids exist.
- Many of the others have similar levels of popularity...within the fandom. Non-fans usually only know about Miku. Crypton's mascotization of Miku doesn't help; they have, for example, 40 different collectible Vocaloid phone charms, 29 of which are Mikus. Vocaloid concerts also tend to be about 3/4ths Miku and 1/4th everyone else.
- There's a reason the Hatsune Miku Project DIVA series has her name plastered on it. Around 60% to 70% of the songs in every game are Miku songs or feature Miku in some capacity. The other five featured Vocaloids combined get far less representation than her. For example, in F, out of the 39 playable songs, only 12 didn't have Miku in them.
- It's even worse in X, where she's in all but three of the thirty-two available songs.
- Stripperific: Her recent "Racing Queen" design by Goodsmile Racing for the Sepang GT race in Malaysia as reported here
.
- The Cameo: Miku (singing World is Mine) appears in The iDOLM@STER 2 for the PS3 as a priced DLC opponent for the game's Festival stages. Furthermore, she has an alternate download pack which gives her the Miku Append outfit and an alternate song (Melt).
- She was a DLC character in Persona 4: Dancing All Night, likely due to the fact that Sega owns both the Persona and Project Diva series.
- The Rival: To Tei Sukone. And with good reason.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: Usually portrayed as the Girly Girl to Rin's tomboy.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Negi/Leek. It came from her cover of the Ievan Polka, in which she discredited the Leekspin meme from Orihime and made it her own. Along with the leeks she also has a fondness for bacon wrapped hotdogs. according to the Toyota ads
.
- Updated Re-release: Miku Append, where she received an update that consisted of six new voicebanks: Soft, Sweet, Dark, Vivid, Solid, and Light. All of which reflect her moods and gives her more vocal range.
- Her V3 Japanese voicebanks, which are all updates of her original V2 voicebanks, available since September 26, 2013.
- Her Vocaloid4X voicebanks, made to address the issues with the V3 banks, available since August 31, 2016.
- World's Most Beautiful Woman: Deconstructed in "Alice of Human Sacrifice", where her beauty leads to her becoming an incredibly vain queen and fearing what would happen if she grows old. The song never gives specifics as to what happens to her next, but most PVs have interpreted her as going completely insane.
- Tsundere: During "World of Mine" where she is a type A; bitchy and lovesick at the same time but mellowing to the later at the end of the song.
- Yandere: Most notably in the song ACUTE, but if she's in a scenario where she loves KAITO and she gets rejected in favor of someone else, there will be pain.
- Rotten Girl, Grotesque Romance
is another example.
- Rotten Girl, Grotesque Romance
- You Gotta Have Blue Hair: However, it may alternate between different shades of green and blue. The most often-agreed on color is cyan.
- Zettai Ryouiki: Wearing thigh high boots. Rank A; can qualify for Rank S (with Tsundere added) depending on depictions.
Kagamine Rin / Kagamine Len

- Adorkable: Both are frequently depicted as such.
- Alternate Self: The pair are portrayed this way in Mirror's Magic and Magic Mirror, in which Len is an eternally unlucky and miserable boy locked in a tower and Rin is his eternally happy and lucky counterpart. When Len manages to reverse his situation by cursing her through the eponymous mirror, she ends up in the same position as him. Stricken by remorse, he takes the role of a "magician" and gives her back all of the happiness he stole from her at the cost of his own, destroying the mirror at the end to make it permanent, implying that he'll be left to languish in terrible conditions despite Rin's pleading him to stay.
- Ax-Crazy:
- Rin is portrayed as a serial killer in Karakuri Burst, wielding a gun and katana.
Rin: Destroy, destroyIs it enough? It's not enoughI have an insatiable impulse for destructionFragile, how fragile, how fragile humans are- Rin again in Fear Garden, where she gleefully murders the other Vocaloids and chops off their arms to plant in her garden like flowers.
- Declaration of Protection: While Rin is usually depicted as the older of the two, Len is usually portrayed as being very protective of her (Servant of Evil and Kaito ga Uninstall for example). This is usually what leads to his death.
- Bishounen: Whenever Len's drawn to look older than a young teenager in certain PVs, he's this.
- Brother–Sister Team: In some songs, such as Trick and Treat and Desert Bluebird.
- Chick Magnet: In one
Project Diva video, a Rokurokubi falls in love with him instantly!
- Creepy Twins: In "Trick and Treat"
.
- Cute and Psycho: Both twins are portrayed as this in various songs, but Len especially in tracks like True Love Restraint and Super Hero.
- The Cutie: Project Diva and Mirai often emphasise and describe Rin's cuteness.
- Damsel in Distress: Rin becomes one in Synchronicity, which takes place in a world where girls are selected at a young age to appease a dragon by singing and dancing for it nonstop until they die of exhaustion and starvation. Naturally, Len and several of the other Vocaloids take it upon themselves to rescue her.
- The Dividual: Obviously of the Twindividual variety.
- Evil Versus Evil: In "Karakuri Burst". With Rin as an Axe-Crazy assassin and Len as a corrupt, Nazi-like soldier, it's kind of hard to tell who we're supposed to root for.
- Sibling Yin-Yang: Songs usually describe Rin as outgoing, Tsundere, selfish, stubborn and/or plucky; Len is usually portrayed as intelligent, sensitive, cute, and/or serious. Their Appends stretched this further: Rin has Power, Warm and Sweet, while Len has Power, Cold and Serious.
- They have a juxtaposed duet in Paradise of Light and Shadow:
Rin: A song of hope and light for tomorrowLen: A song of despair and shadow to bury the past. - Girly Run: Len in this PV
of Alice in Musicland.
- God Save Us from the Queen!: Rin in Story of Evil. She also plays a much sillier example in Death Should Not Have Taken Thee.
- Greek Chorus: In "Witch Hunt", they appear as two commoners providing exposition.
- Hair Decorations: Rin's ribbon.
- Heel Realization: Rin's character in "Story of Evil", after Len's character sacrifices himself for her. Len has one of these in a fanmade PV for "Spice!", when he is in the middle of pretty much trying to rape Rin.
- Heroic R.R.O.D.: Part of the main conflict of Synchronicity. Len has to find Rin before she succumbs to this.
- Half-Identical Twins/Opposite-Sex Clone: Depending on what side of the twins vs. mirror images debate you're on. note
- Iconic Item: The roda rora (Roadroller) is synonymous with the Kagamine twins.
- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Len, usually in regards to Rin and/or Miku.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The best example of this would probably be "Okay, Green is the Enemy"
, where Rin gets jealous of Miku after she catches Kaito's attention, and asks Neru for advice on what to do about it. Neru suggests that they leave nasty comments on her videos and make her life miserable, but Rin turns the idea down because while she's jealous of Miku, she still admires her and doesn't want to do anything that would hurt her feelings.
- Kid-anova: Len in "Spice!" and "Messiah or Desire". One YouTube comment pretty much sums it up for all the mature Len songs.:"If he's not dying, he's womanizing."
- Kiddie Kid: Rin is often portrayed with a childish personality, in contrast to Len's maturity.
- Knight Templar Big Brother: Len is often depicted as this in darker songs. He takes on a more heroic variant in Synchronicity.
- Magical Girl: Subverted, with Len as a Magical Kitty. Seriously.
- Meaningful Name: 'Kagamine' means 'mirror sound', to emphasize their mirror-image nature.
- Order Versus Chaos: In "Karakuri Burst", wherein Rin is an Axe-Crazy serial killer (chaos) and Len is a Knight Templar soldier whose mission is to destroy all evil (order). Interestingly, it's also a case of Evil Versus Evil.
- Pink Means Feminine: Rin wears a pink dress and a white hat with a pink ribbon in the PVs of Prisoner and Paper Plane.
- She also has a pink bow in one PV of Suki Daisuki.
- Rockers Smash Guitars: The Project Diva X and live version of The Lost One's Weeping has Rin smashing and tossing equipment all over the place, starting with her guitar.
- Sailor Fuku: Rin, however, gets shorts, while Len gets the male version with the tie.
- Sarashi: They provide the page image, each modeling her/his own gender's variation.
- Screw Yourself / Twincest: It's not entirely unusual to portray them as siblings and then romantically pair the two of them up with each other. Many songs indeed played this up.
- Separated at Birth: Played for Drama in many of their songs.
- In Synchronicity, they're both this but linked psychically, this being the reason for Len's determination to save her from the dragon that so many girls before her had died for.
- Servile Snarker: Len (the soldier) is this to Rin (the king) in Death Should Not Have Taken Thee!.
- She's Got Legs: Rin's shorts (and mini-skirt in V4X) are minuscule. Some fan artists elongate her shorts for dignity, as a result.
- Project Diva 2 has proven that Len doesn't have bad looking legs either...
- Project Diva -f- as well. Thank you Punkish
◊ and Stylish Energy L
◊ modules.
- Sibling Rivalry: Not common, but this can come up between the two, the best example being "Childish War"
.
- Stalker with a Crush:
- Len in Like, Dislike. His stalking allowed him to buy the Rainbow Quartz that Rin was eyeing and he tries to cover it with a Suspiciously Specific Denial. Rin doesn't buy it for a second.
- Also Rin, in "A Loving Robot."
- Strong Girl, Smart Guy: In Alice of Human Sacrifice, Rin is stated to be "a stubborn elder sister" while Len is noted to be "a smart younger brother".
- Stupid Sexy Flanders: Len, especially in Project Diva 2nd
.
- Sweet Polly Oliver: The video for "Skeleton Life" has Rin pulling one of these.
- Tender Tears: To say Len looks adorable when he cries is an understatement
.
- They Killed Kenny Again: Both of them get killed in many of their songs.
- Theme Twin Naming: Their names (R and L) are plays on 'right' and 'left' respectively. In addition, L and R are nearly interchangeable in Japanese, making their names sound almost identical.
- The Ojou: Rin in the Story of Evil series.
- Token Mini-Moe: Both of them among the Cryptonloids.
- Updated Re-release: The Kagamine Rin/Len Append and V4X.
- Villain Protagonist: They tend to be this in the darker songs. Usually, it's Rin (Evil series, Fear Garden and Thirteen Year Old Killer) but Len has played this role in The Riddle Solver Who Couldn't Solve Riddles, Spice!, True Love Restraint and Psychotic Love Song and both of them have played this in Trick and Treat.
- Len could be argued as an Anti Villain Protagonist in the Story of Evil, too. Though motivated by sisterly love, he is still The Dragon to the Royal Brat Rin and participated in a lot of unsavory acts at her command (including killing his adoptive father). Of course, his sacrifice tends to overshadow that.
- What Have I Done: Rin in Message of Regret.
- Who Wears Short Shorts?: Rin wears short shorts. Depending on the module, Len gets them in the DIVA series.
- Wholesome Crossdresser: Len has
done so
on a
couple of
occasions
(sometimes against his will). And he looked quite good doing it.
- Woman in White: Rin V4X has a primarily white outfit that is far different from her previous design.
- Zettai Ryouiki: Rin in Karakuri Burst.
- Len's Punkish costume in DIVA 2nd.
Megurine Luka

- Bare Your Midriff
- Big Bad: Plays the villainous role in the "Synchronicity" series, although it's later implied that the REAL villain is the dragon.
- Bilingual Bonus: Luka is the first Vocaloid to support phonemes for more than one language (Japanese and English). As of her V4X update, she has two English voicebanks- Straight and Soft.
- Cool Big Sis: Some interpretations feature her as this. The Project DIVA games even have a cutscene where Miku, Len and Rin refer to her as "Luka-nee".
- Determinator: In Double
Lariat
.
- Fashionable Asymmetry: It depends on who's drawing her, but a lot of the time she only has one forearm sleeve.
- She is depicted this way in the Vocaloid game, Project DIVA, along with in Hatsune Mix, the manga drawn by Luka's designer, KEI.
- According to KEI, she was specifically drawn asymmetrical to reflect the fact she is bilingual.
- Jiggle Physics: In her cover of Levan Polka
note . Project DIVA also likes to emphasize her bust, such as in "Ai Dee".
- Meaningful Name: 'Megurine' means 'revolving sound', referencing her bilingual capabilities.
- Ojou: Luka is usually portrayed as a refined young lady in official media. She has a more sophisticated design than the other Cryptonloids (especially in the V4x version), a calm and whispery voice, Rapunzel Hair, a black/brown/gold color scheme, design elements that mimic woodwind and brass instruments with a blue jewel, was seen playing a cello in one of the Project Diva openings, was a main character in the Elegant and Cool clouds in Project Diva X, most of her dance routines are distinctively more feminine and graceful than the other females of the group, and one of her recommended genres is Jazz.
- Crypton Future Media even teamed up with the famous French brand Cattier to produce a special limited edition of Luka-themed champagne.
- Rapunzel Hair
- Reality Warper: In this PV of Alice in Musicland
, wherein she's shown to teleport, turn invisible and even replace Miku's reflection in the water with her own. Justified partly because she's playing the Cheshire Cat and partly because it's All Just a Dream. Or is it?
- Smug Snake: In the "Synchronicity" trilogy. Just look at her face!
◊
- Surprisingly Good English: Much
More
often
than
you'd
think
.

- "Maguro Tabetai"
(I Want to Eat Tuna) is all about Luka craving tuna and going on about the best kinds of Japanese tuna to eat.
- Tsundere: Extreme A-type in "Go Google It"
. Hell, the song's even nicknamed "Gugudere"!
- Updated Re-release: Recieved not a Vocaloid3 update, unlike Kaito, Meiko, and Miku, but a Vocaloid4 update titled "Megurine Luka V4X". This update is notable in that it contains the brand-new EVEC system developed by Crypton to provide greater expression for their Vocaloids, as well as two different English vocals- Straight and Soft.
- Villain with Good Publicity: In "The Tailor of Enbizaka" and the "Synchronicity" series. For bonus points on the latter, she turns everyone against the heroes, boosting her publicity even further.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: According to the handy manual, her character in the "Synchronicity" trilogy wants the human sacrifices to continue because she knows the dragon will go on a murderous rampage if they don't. Not the best plan, but she had the kingdom's best interests at heart.
- Whip It Good: One of her character items is a whip.
- Yandere: The Tailor Shop On Enbizaka
- RIP=RELEASE
, an answer song for Len's Spice!.

- Zettai Ryouiki: A sort of variation—her stockings do go past her skirt, but you can see it anyway because there is a slit in it.

- Cover Version: Her demo song, "Anone... Jitsu wa, Atashi wa Yumemi Nemu Da..."
is a cover of her voice provider's "I Am" Song.

Internet Co. Ltd.
Kamui Gakupo/Gackpoidnote

- Author Avatar: A variation; Gakupo is said to be "an extension of Gackt's persona".
- Bishounen
- Blade Below the Shoulder: In the Synchronicity series, before Miku destroys it.
- Dogged Nice Guy: In "Go Google It".
- Everything's Better with Samurai
- Face Death with Dignity: His cover of "Disappearance of Hatsune Miku"
seems to invoke this trope, as it's set to a slower, more calm tune (though still somewhat melancholy). Perhaps it's a samurai thing.
- Harem Seeker: In Madness of Duke Venomania
.
- Idiot Hair: A fairly noticeable one (look at the picture).
- Katanas Are Just Better: According to the official profile, this katana actually serves some musical function.
- Long-Haired Pretty Boy
- Mr. Fanservice: Even during his Joke Character days, he was portrayed as a handsome man running around in a fundoshi that barely covered his unusually sculpted rear. Aside from that, if he was a lover, he was usually played off as this. "The Madness of Duke Venomania" just took this trait Up to Eleven.
- Obi-Wan Moment: In "Sayonara, Arigatou", his last day with Rin is spent bidding her farewell for the future, regretful that he could not live long enough for her to receive her "Kokoro".
- Otaku: How he's portrayed in the 2015 Niconico Cho Party concert. His room is filled wall to wall with Gumi merchandise, and he's constantly running around with a dakimakura (once with Gumi, the second time with IA).
- The Reveal: "Sayonara, Arigatou" reveals that he is Rin's creator in "Kokoro". Thanks to Adaptation Displacement, most people will tell you it was Len.

- Surprisingly Good English:
- Most of ROY-P's songs featuring Gakupo has him speaking Engrish (mostly for the choruses) at worst , but then you have "Pain of the Sins"
a full-fledged, honest-to-God English song made using his Japanese voicebank.
- Although his English Voicebank is not yet out, it's not uncommon for Vocaloid users to make Gakupo sing in English. Take
a
look
at
these.
- Most of ROY-P's songs featuring Gakupo has him speaking Engrish (mostly for the choruses) at worst , but then you have "Pain of the Sins"
- Trademark Favorite Food: Eggplants.
- Updated Re-release: His Vocaloid 3 version, which updated his original voice as Native and gave him extra Power and Whisper voicebanks.

. He's hooked up to one of the machines that apparently contributed to instigating the apocalypse.
- You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Has purple hair.
Gumi/Megpoidnote



- Ambiguous Disorder: Considering that for whatever reason many of her songs contain trippy imagery, or give mental issues to her caused by various reasons... (Often due to Love Hurts, e.g. "Ten Faced")
- All Love Is Unrequited: It used to be a fandom joke that Gumi was incapable of getting the one boy she loved in any given song. And a lot of the time, her crush would also be none the wiser until the very last minute.
- Bare Your Midriff: A variation in her standard costume, her shirt is very transparent for her navel to be visible. Played straight in her Vocaloid3 and Vocaloid4 costumes. Subverted in her design following the release of her English voicebank.

.
- Bilingual Bonus: Her English Voicebank, though subverted in a way as it is sold separately from her other (Japanese) voicebanks.
- Boyish Short Hair
- Composite Character: In "Music Wizard of Oz"
, she plays the titular wizard, who comes off as a cross between the Wizard of Oz and Glinda the Good Witch.
- Did Not Get the Girl: Gender Inverted. An alarming number of her most popular songs have her romantic relationships just not working out. They usually end in a bittersweet way at best or tragically at worst.
- Goggles Do Nothing: Well...unless they're like Gakupo's katana.
- Taken to ridiculous levels in Sheep Sleep Sheep
where she's shown to possess a big pile of them.
- Taken to ridiculous levels in Sheep Sleep Sheep
- Guest Fighter: As part of her 5th anniversary celebration, she is part of a major BEMANI crossover event, and is an opponent character in Popn Music, although she is not playable.
- Hotter and Sexier: See Underboobs below. And especially her whisper
◊,adult
◊, and english
◊ versions.
- Jack-of-All-Trades: Her various new Vocaloid 3 voicebanks, which can be purchased as a bundle (except her "Native" voicebank, see below), give her quite a bit of versatility.
- Licensed Game: Megpoid the Music#. She was also licensed off for Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project mirai, although she only appears in a few songs and isn't able to be interacted with. Later installments gave her her own Nendoroid model and costumes, but still kept her as a guest.
- Louis Cypher: In mothy's works, her largest role is as The Master of the Hellish Yard.
- Love Hurts: A constant victim of this in her songs.

- Opera Gloves: Has them in her English voicebank design.
- Split Personality: Because Love Hurts and makes you crazy in the song "Ten Faced".
.
- Also in "A Fake, Fake, Psychotropic"
.

, which is understandable even without subtitles.
- Also made obvious in the original Engish song ECHO
- Took a Level in Badass: Our 16bit Warz
- Also, "Mozaik Role".
- Heck, her cameo in Judgement of Corruption tops all of these; She's pretty much SATAN!
- Also, "Mozaik Role".
- Trademark Favorite Food: Carrots. Surely there's an Aesop hidden this fact somewhere... This is because she wears orange clothes and has green hair... Right?
- Updated Re-release: Her Vocaloid 3 "Native" voicebank, which is basically a Vocaloid 3 version of her original Vocaloid 2 voicebank (which is now out of print). She later got another update for Vocaloid4.
- Underboobs: What her Vocaloid3 attires are most notable for. No, really.
- Yandere: "Sweet Shackles"
. It's like Gumi is channeling Yuno Gasai.

- Her design for her English voicebank has her in stockings. Grade A.

- Rapunzel Hair
- Stripperiffic
- Tattooed Crook: To emphasis her 'punk girl' imagery, she has some on her left wrist and her lower back that extends to both side of her waist. Fan artists tend to miss this one feature of hers because her clothes (if you can call those clothes) are often cover them.
- Updated Re-release: Has received a V3 Native update.
- Yandere: One of her first major hits, "Chloe", is a yandere song. Here comes yet another one, folks.
- "Marie-Luise", which was made by sele-P like "Chloe", also is an example, albeit with Incompatible Orientation & Unlucky Childhood Friend involved.

CUL

- Badass Longcoat
- Hotter and Sexier: The only explanation for why she feels to wear a garterbelt over some very short shorts to hold up her stockings in her redesign. Her low-cut, cropped halter top also adds to this. For some reason she also has a Badass Longcoat though.
- Lady in Red: Before her redesign.
- Meaningful Name: Her name CUL is from the word "Culture". As stated above, she was used to help promote the growing Vocaloid culture.
- Of Corsets Sexy
- Red Eyes, Take Warning

- Rapunzel Hair

- Surprisingly Good English: Here

Otomachi Una

- Curtains Match the Window: Although her hair is a slightly different shade of blue than her eyes.
- Cute Little Fangs
- Fashionable Asymmetry: Spicy moreso than Sugar, with radically different stockings, a cape over her skirt on one side, uneven streaks in her hair, a lightning bolt on one side of her hat, and a musical note painted on one cheek. Her Sugar design is more even, but still has mismatched socks and jewelry on one leg. Her Talk package
adverts this entirely; pantyhose and upper garments are completely symmetrical.
- Meaningful Name: Her given name, Una, sounds like part of the word "unagi". She wears an eel hat in both of her forms.
- Multicolored Hair: Her twintails are a different color at the tip than the rest of it (Sugar has white, Spicy has yellow). Her Spicy design also has streaks of yellow in her bangs.
- Rapunzel Hair: For a little girl she's packing some serious locks.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: Her "Sugar" side is the light, her "Spicy" side is the dark. They have pretty similar designs, but the Sugar one wears more frills and the Spicy one wears bolder, brighter colors and has a more eager expression. Both wear skirts, though.

Other Japanese producers
Note: All Japanese names are in Japanese order (surname-given name), as this is their formal product name arrangement. For consistency, the names of the providers of the voice banks are in the same format.
The first Vocaloid devloped by Exit Tunes, Mayu is a Yandere-influenced Vocaloid.
Released by Ki/oon, a subsidary of Sony (yes, that Sony), as the fifteenth Japanese Vocaloid and the first one by Sony. The voicebank was recorded by the Nico Nico Douga singer Piko, hence the name - this makes Piko somewhat of a Promoted Fanboy.

Big Al

", where James is shown wearing Cool Shades; 2) Oliver's official Twitter account claims to actually be administered by James, with Oliver dictating to him what to post; 3) James was hinted to be able to speak; and 4) VocaTone played an April Fool's joke by announcing that James would become a Vocaloid of his own, as Bird-loid.

- Child Soldier: His official design gives off vibes of this. And he has bandages on his legs and left eye... Atlthough it's actually based off the Vienna Boy's Choir
.
- Cool Pet: James the bird. In tribute to Oliver's co-creators in the U.S., it's an American goldfinch.

and try to resist the urge to hug him through the screen.

- Meaningful Name: The latter part of his name is another word for a lay clerk
, or male choir singer.

Miriam

- Odd Couple: Sound wise, she compliments Avanna surprisingly well.
- Temporary Online Content: Despite LOLA, LEON, and MIRIAM all being removed from sale, it was still possible to buy a downloadable link until November 2015. MIRIAM was the only one of the three to have all her serial codes had been sold at that point, making it currently impossible to purchase her.

and is usually used to sing...not Opera
.

- Idiot Hair: E-capsule Prima has a stray curl on the side of her head.
- Meaningful Name - From "prima donna," the lady in an opera company who generally got the leading roles.
- Shrinking Violet: E-capsule Prima shyly glances sideways, while her chibi form shows her standing pigeon-toed, tight lipped and blushing.
- Surprisingly Good English: While an English voicebank, Prima was the first Vocaloid to have phonemes and can sing in multiple languages. Makes sense considering she's designed to sing in opera.
- Technician vs. Performer: Between her and Sweet ANN back in 2007. Both were released at the height of the Vocaloid craze, and are credited for people developing interest in oversea Vocaloids. While Sweet Ann was notable for sounding sharp and clear, while Prima was praised for sounding beautiful.
- Unusual Ears: E-capsule Prima sports a pair of headphones with pointing speaker ears. No one is quite sure if they are Fox ears, Cat ears or Wolf ears. Though the most popular assumption is fox.

- Bare Your Midriff: Can't get anymore obvious.
- Hotter and Sexier: Compare her current boxart (pictured above) to her original
◊.

- Kaleidoscope Hair: Her green hair is able to change color to red according to her Twitter messages.
- Master of None: Though her voice is average at best and often unintelligible, she's less restricted by phonetics and syllables than other Vocaloids, making it easier for her to sing in other languages.

.

much.
Many of her fans find this appealing, though.

- Tuxedo and Martini: Even Sonika claims a martini to be his character item!
Avanna



- Animesque: Unlike the other Zero-G vocaloids, her sole official design
closely follows the anime style of drawing, mainly as a result of Yamaha's insistence (the commissioned artist, AkiGlancy, originally designed her to be a western style elf; this concept was rejected, but still appears as a sillouette on the boxart behind the official design).
- Fighter, Mage, Thief: Given her original elf concept, she fits into the Mage role between her, Daina's, and Dex's fantasy designs.

- Little Bit Beastly: Her original design had her with fox ears and tail.
- Loveable Rogue: Her thief
◊ design.
- Mascot: She and Dex serve as the headliners for the Engloid-themed concert Vocamerica.
- Meaningful Name: "Daina" is the Lithuanian and Latvian word for "song". There's another, unintentional meaning on AkiGlancy's part: When coming up with the names for the duo, she wanted a whimsical-sounding name for Daina. Nostraightanswer pointed out that she shares the name with the very whimsical Alice Liddell's cat, Dinah.
- Wearing a Flag on Your Head: Fittingly enough for an American vocaloid, Daina's main colors are a prominent red, white, and blue.
Dex

- Fighter, Mage, Thief: Dex's hunter design is more combat oriented, placing him in the Fighter role among his, Avanna's, and Daina's fantasy designs.

- Little Bit Beastly: His original design had him with wolf ears and tail.

◊, fittingly enough of a wolf.
- Mascot: He and Daina are the main focus of the Engloid-themed concert Vocamerica.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: Goes hand in hand with his alternate wolf boy design.

- Zettai Ryouiki
ONA
Voctro Labs' fourth mascot, made in collaboration with The Lab Barcelona and La Merced (ICUB). She interestingly shares the same voicebank as MAIKA, making her a Literal Split Personality for their shared data. She is meant to represent the Catalan capabilities of the voicebank. Unlike MAIKA, she is not intended for public use, instead being used for concerts and events.- Foil: To MAIKA. On the whole, MAIKA seems to be more geared toward the public image of Vocaloids, being an Animesque young singer with a futuristic design and bright colors to match, while ONA is more geared towards professional usage and has a more contemporary design fit for the 21st century. And while both are Virtual Celebrities, MAIKA is meant to be used on computers, while ONA is meant to be used on a live stage or in the public.
- Literal Split Personality: Of MAIKA's voicebank.
- Meaningful Name: Ona means "wave" in Catalan, and her design motif has waves in it.

And...
Ascended Fan Derivatives
Fanmade derivatives of existing Vocaloids, who have gained official recognition as memes from Crypton themselves; two of them, Neru and Haku, made cameos in the spinoff manga and games.
Haku is a depressed counterpart of Miku, created by those who cannot use Miku properly. She is usually off-key when she sings (although sometimes she produces nice songs), and envies Miku's voice, to the point where she drinks. A lot.
Neru is another counterpart of Miku, made by people who make Miku's pitch too high. It is said she represents those who are too lazy and impatient to use Vocaloid correctly and give up half way through, which is indicated by Neru's Tsundere nature. Her origin can also be explained as a personification of Trolling.Her voice is usually an edit of Miku's, but can also come from Rin's, depending on the editor.
A chibified version of Miku, created especially for her Leekspin video and helping to push her (and arguably, Vocaloids as a whole) into the mainstream.
Meaning "Octopus Luka", this is Luka's disembodied head with her hair turned into pink tentacles. She somewhat resembles the yukkuris associated with Touhou, but shouldn't be confused with them.
A teenage counterpart of Meiko made when the popularity of Hatsune Miku left Meiko behind.
A rather disturbing original character created by Deino, first starring in his PV Machine Muzik
. She is sometimes also incorrectly
called Karune Ca. Calcium is a mechanized skeleton with a cybernetic red left eye, finger-like appendages in place of a lower jaw, a clawed mechanical right arm, a skeletal left arm, and twisted, mechanical legs. She runs on batteries and requires a robotic companion to occasionally replace them (humorously and disturbingly at once, her batteries are located under her skirt). Calcium is usually seen wearing an outer shell and outfit resembling Miku Hatsune's, and goes by the alias Calne Ca while doing so.She is closely associated with insects and other crawling critters, such as wharf roaches and cockroaches. The world of Calne Ca is full of grotesque and deathly imagery.Calcium also appears in a PV for DJ Technorch's Ataraxia
, but with red eyes and more normal-looking robotic limbs as opposed to Calne's wierd appendages. She was recognized by Crypton as a derivative of Miku, and has been featured in some of their events.Calne Ca also stars in Bacterial Contamination
with an all new look!
Yowane Haku
- Ascended Fanon: Sort of, her creator CAFFEIN ships her with Miku Hatsune, and when mothy, one of the most influential Vocaloid producers of all decided to include a character based on Haku, he paired her together with a character based on Miku.
- Bare Your Midriff
- The Cameo: A special Mythology Gag for Evillious Chronicles fans; Haku appears briefly in the Project mirai rendition of "Servant of Evil", referencing the song "Daughter of White".
- Drowning My Sorrows: Because she thinks she'll never be as good as Miku.
- Gasshole: Several elements of the fandom love portraying her as such. In fact, she may be more well-known for her farting than anything else. Granted, she drinks a lot of sake, so this should not be too surprising.
- Hidden Depths: Despite her concept as not being as good a singer as Miku, she's often portrayed as being good at other things, such as playing musical instruments (especially the guitar
).
- Jiggle Physics: Her model in Miku Miku Dance is the first officially released one that does this.
- Ms. Fanservice
- Meaningful Name: Her name means "weak willed words".
- Rapunzel Hair
- Tareme Eyes
- Technicolor Eyes: Red eyes.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Sake, just like Meiko up there.
- The Voiceless: In Project DIVA, being a fan-created Vocaloid, Haku had no voice. Averted in Project DIVA 2nd, where (like everyone else), she has her own celebration dialogue when completing a song.
- Haku's voice in Project DIVA 2nd seems to be a deeper, more reserved-sounding Miku.
Akita Neru
- Companion Cube: Her cell phone.
- Lazy Bum: Her origin and name lampshade this.
- Meaningful Name: Her name itself is a reference to trolling; "akita, neru" equates to "(Fuck this,) I'm tired, I'm going to bed."
- While it's likely accidental, Neru also shares her last name with the Akita Inu
, a dog breed with a reputation of being loyal towards humans, yet aggressive toward other animals.
- While it's likely accidental, Neru also shares her last name with the Akita Inu
- Phoneaholic Teenager: Often depicted as one due to her cell phone.
- Rapunzel Hair
- Skirt over Slacks: She wears shorts under her skirt.
- The Voiceless: Like Haku, had no voice in Project DIVA (Due to being an unofficial cameo). Also like Haku, averted in Project DIVA 2nd in the same fashion. All of her celebratory quotes sound displeased, no matter how well the player performs.
- Neru's dialogue in Project DIVA 2nd seems to be a deeper, more womanly-sounding Rin.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: With Haku in Dark Woods Circus, in which she's the "girly girl" (she's seen wearing a long green dress). In fanon, however, it's usually the other way around.
- Troll: Created out of a trolling incident, as can be read on that trope's page.
- Tsundere
- Tsurime Eyes: To contrast with Haku.
Hachune Miku

- Ascended Meme - As in literally ascended. 3 figurines of her were launched in a rocket from Black Rock, Nevada.
- Blank White Eyes
- Perpetual Frowner: She spends most if not all of her time with a shocked, sleepy, or angry expression.
- Super-Deformed
- When She Smiles: In the opening
for Project Diva 2nd, she actually smiles for once.
TakoLuka
- Body Horror: One piece of fanart suggests that TakoLuka's eyes are actually anuses. Eww!
- Head Pet: Her Nendoroid figurine is designed to rest on top of a Luka nendo.
- Her Nenderoid plushie is also able to sit on the Luka plushie's head. And it's adorable
◊.
- In Project DIVA F, a Tako Luka doll is available as a head accessory.
- Her Nenderoid plushie is also able to sit on the Luka plushie's head. And it's adorable
- Interspecies Romance: She's sometimes paired up with a tuna named Ooma-sannote , such as in Tako Luka * Tuna Fever
.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Although Luka likes tuna, Tako Luka takes it further by dating tuna.
- Waddling Head
Sakine Meiko
- Bare Your Midriff
- Color-Coded Characters: In the Hatsune Miku Project DIVA series, her official color is pitched as being orange, in order to distinguish her from MEIKO.
- Composite Character: Some fans settle confusion between her and normal Meiko by making them the same person (usually with Meiko's fanon personality in Meiko Sakine's body).
- Lady in Red
- Magic Skirt: That skirt is just begging for a panty shot.
- Ms. Fanservice: Though more subdued than MEIKO.
- Prequel: "Sakine" means "preceding sound", as in preceding Mikunote . Also, her official setting is "the Meiko who came into music trend in the age of 16".
Calne Ca/Calcium





- Absolute Cleavage: When "dressed" as Miku she leaves the vest undone, when she's wearing anything at all.
- After the End: If Zeromachina is anything to go by, then her home is the Earth after some cataclysm that wiped out the majority of mankind.
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: in the Bacterial Contamination PV, the nightmarish Vocaloids trade their mechanical appendages for organic spiny insectile limbs. In the Machine Muzik PV, she's accompanied by a large scorpion-like creature.
- Body Horror: Her legs, mouth, one eye, and an arm are grotesque cybernetic prostheses, and her other arm is disproportionately long, three-fingered, and skeletal.
- Dark Is Not Evil: According to Word of God.
- Dem Bones: The base form of Calne Ca is a mechanized skeleton. The stuff that makes her look even remotely human is additions.
- Associated with her is a skull with a cybernetic eye walking on 4 mechanical legs.
- Eldritch Location: Fittingly enough, she lives in one.
- Hair Decorations: A spiny insect-thing.
- He Who Fights Monsters: In Bacterial Contamination. She fights against her bullies so hard, that eventually she becomes one. Her reaction upon realizing this Isn't pretty.
- Humanoid Abomination: Her biological insect-like form, for a given definition of "humanoid". Calcium fits the trope even better; she only looks human, but you can tell that there's something...off about her...
- Killer Robot: Even though Deino has insisted that "she is not a brutal character", she definitely has that vibe going.
- Losing Your Head: has been seen at least once with her head detached and walking on the floor on its finger-appendages.
- Ms. Fanservice : Her creator makes artworks featuring her in which she has some gloriously fanservicey outfits such as this
and this
among others ( yes this is calne ca in case you have doubts, she simply is human form in these artworks ). And if you turn off the mature filter you can find more.
- Natural Weapon: Insect Calne Ca's hand-blades mirrors the blades of her robot form.
- Our Clones Are Identical: Those weird faceless mannequins, be they clones or androids.
- Vocal Dissonance: In the previews for Zeromachina she is voiced by.... Yui Horie. Definitely not the kind of voice one would expect from such a fearsome-looking robot.
- Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: In Bacterial Contamination, where she's a severe victim of bullying.
- The Worm That Walks: Not quite, but she is occasionally
seen pretty much swarming with creepy crawlies.
Mikudayo
An Uncanny Valley-esque chibi version of Hatsune Miku based on a memetically creepy Nendoroid costume of her from the the Tokyo Game Show 2011 presentation of SEGA's 3DS title Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project mirai.- Axe-Crazy: Often depicted as this in pictures.
- Butt-Monkey: In the "Together with Mikudayo!" promo videos for Project mirai 2. She gets absolutely trampled for the sake of comedy.
- The Cameo: Project DIVA F and Arcade featured a Head Accessory of her, and Project mirai had an unlockable face swap of Miku that made her look like Mikudayo. F 2nd went a step further and included a whole outfit. In every game she appears in, she's either Downloadable Content or the hardest item to acquire in the game.
- Creepy Monotone: When she does speak, she mainly says "Miku da yo" in a very droning version of Miku's regular voice bank, but with little no no inflection. This makes her come off as very unnerving.
- Last Lousy Point: When she isn't DLC, she's this.
- Meaningful Name: Based on the phrase "Miku da yo", meaning "I am Miku!". The phrase used to be used ironically concerning how much she doesn't look like Miku at all, but it's now used to signify her wanting to Kill and Replace the actual Miku.
- Perpetual Smiler: She's this as a result of her costume.
- Super-Deformed: She's supposed to be this.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Otoro sushi, or specifically, giant otoro sushi, since regular sushi is too small for her.
