Her popularity skyrocketed when the viral song "Miku Miku ni Shite Ageru" and Otomania and Tamago's "Ievan Polkka" video released to Website/NicoNicoDouga, and she retains a prominent presence there to this day: the synthesized voice that sings the site's jingle is her, and she and her content creators still make and distribute videos for the platform. Her popularity brought Vocaloid as a software into the greater public conscious, especially after the videos started coming westward through the likes of Website/{{YouTube}}.

** She also appears voiced by her own voicebank (although credited with her voice provider) in ''VideoGame/MuseDash''.



* CanonDiscontinuity: Her official backstory of being an Android who has come to spread her love of music to prevent a BadFuture is not acknowledged at all by Crypton Future Media today, as she is instead promoted as a virtual idol with a deep love for her fans.

* {{Crossover}}: Sometimes, Miku will make appearances in other properties without the other Cryptons being along for the ride, such as her appearances in ''Franchise/LoveLive'' and ''VideoGame/BangDreamGirlsBandParty'' among many, many others. The ''Love Live'' crossover even has a song, "BANZAI! digital trippers" which is Aqours featuring Miku. Project Voltage, a collaboration with ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' depicts Miku as a different-type Pokémon trainer with her Pokémon being music-based ones such as Rillaboom and Flygon, though the Fighting-type trainer shows her with Sirfetch'd due to both Hatsune Miku and Sirfetch'd being associtated with leeks. Each type also comes with its own song by a different composer. She is also the first Vocaloid to join VideoGame/{{COMPASS}} though after some time, Rin and Len join the roster too. In COMPASS she is a Sprinter class hero with a healing support playstyle.

** She also appears as a guest star and playable character in ''VideoGame/MuseDash'' alongside a song pack containing some of her songs such as "Hand in Hand", "Vampire" and "Hatsune Creation Myth". In the game, her skill allows her to hit notes on both lanes regardless of what key you press as long as you time it right, making ''Muse Dash'' into a one-button game if you choose.



* FertilityGod: Magical Mirai 2021's theme has her depicted as a nature goddess using her music to fill the world with life alongside the other Cryptons, who represent other elements.



* HonoraryPrincess: Is portrayed as this just as often as she is a literal one, such as in World is Mine, Test Tube Princess, and Assassin Princess.

* IAmSong: While she's had plenty written for her, "Miku Miku ni Shite Ageru" is often taken as her introduction. For Western audiences who weren't familiar with her before, "Miku" by Anamanaguchi is this as well.

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Negi/Leek. It came from her cover of the Ievan Polka, in which she discredited the Leekspin meme from [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Orihime]] and made it her own. Along with the leeks she also has a fondness for bacon wrapped hotdogs. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIxI1eB2-vo&feature=relmfu according to the Toyota ads]].

** Miku's V3 English voicebank also received complaints for sounding oddly deep and mature similar to the Dark Append, which made the voice stand out if you had a song where Miku switched between languages. This got rectified for her [=V4X=] English version, which sounds much closer to her "base" sound.

* KimonoIsTraditional: Snow Miku 2013 is depicted wearing a winter-themed traditional white bridal kimono made to resemble a piece of daifuku mochi. Snow Miku 2024 also wears a kimono, but it's made to look more like an old-fashioned waitress's outfit.
* {{Miko}}: Snow Miku 2018 is one, nicknamed the "Crane Priestess".



* TheEeyore: Given her lack of singing talent, she's usually depicted in fanworks as depressive and reserved. CAFFEIN himself however has been drawing her more lively as the years pass.

Added DiffLines:

* VocalDissonance: Many creators like to give her a voice by pitching Rin or Miku down, but other depictions such as the one portrayed by Owata-P give her an even ''higher'' voice than Miku ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Gh11wjpKw&pp=ygUPc3RvcCBuYWdnaW5nIG1l for example]]).
