Vocaloid

щ(ಠ益ಠщ)

Miku is a computer program. Computers do not date people.

Miku Miku ni Shite Ageru.

Actually, Len and Rin are "Mirror Images" of each other. Its because of their last name "Kagamine" from the word "Kagami" which means mirror.

If you do not count prototypes (that would be Yamaha themselves) then the first commercially available Vocaloid product, Leon and Lola, were created by Zero-G, a UK based company, in 2004.

As of this post 8 Aug, 2012, at a minimum, there are over 120,000 songs using Vocaloid.

On the Japanese website, Nico Nico Douga (the central hub of Vocaloid music and videos), we get these numbers:

1. 84,000+ original songs tagged with "Vocaloid" and "オリジナル曲" (original_song).

2. 47,000+ cover songs tagged with "Vocaloid" and "カバー曲" (cover_song).

Take the above 120,000+ songs from that website alone and consider the following:

1. Add all the potential Nico Nico Douga videos that were tagged incorrectly.

2. Add any original songs and covers from YouTube that are not reprints of existing videos.

3. All other websites that have original music and covers using Vocaloid.

The number is possibly much higher than 120,000.

Officially they are not related. Unofficially however, fans like to make Miku the little sister of Kaito.

No and never.

Unless you want to make 'em marry in your own fantasies.

Hatsune Miku's is World is mine OR PoPiPo.

Rin Kagamine's is Meltdown or Tokyo teddybear.

Len Kagamine's is Spice! or Servant of evil.

Luka megurine's is Just be friends or Luka Luka night fever.

Oliver is the first English Vocaloid he was voiced by a young Brittish boy

no it like a formality because they form the same company

Lia, a famous Japanese singer. She's the one who sang the Angel Beats! opening and something for AIR, I forget what.

Officially, KAITO has no one that he likes. However fans like to speculate that he likes MEIKO or Miku. The reason for MEIKO is because they are both Vocaloid 1 and they had a demo song together. For Miku is probably because of her popularity and there are numerous songs that also portray them together.

I sing along to:

Prisoner - Len Kagamine

Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder - Len Kagamine

Bonus Stage - Rin and Len Kagamine

Kokoro Kiseki - Rin and Len Kagamine

Remote Control - Rin and Len Kagamine

Dancing Samurai - Gakupo Kaumi

World is mine - Miku Hatsune

Panda Hero - Rin and Len Kagaime (Cover version)

Matyroshka - Miku Hatsune and Gumi

Along with some others. I can sing these easily because I have a good memory. I don't know Japanese save a few phrases and words, although I do hope to learn.

I hope you can find some songs you can sing along with in this list and if not find some on your own.

so far there is no vocaloid anime nor do they have plans to make one...it would be like a Japanese glee except vocaloid would actually be good!

i think their making a new album

In pop culture today most people believe it's Rin becuase she's always with him. In terms of male it would either be kaito, Piko, or Oliver.

Thousands but due to Vocaloid (the group Hatsune Miku is in) not having many concerts in places other that Las Angles California and around japen i would Say are the 100,000's or at least a Million or so

So far, about 15 concerts/screenings.

Her first concert as a character performing on stage (screen) was in Japan at Animelo Summer Live on 22 Aug. 2009. Her other appearances (in order) so far are as follows:

2) MikuFes '09 - 31 Aug. 2009 - Japan

There may be others, not including the various small Vocaloid Panels at various conventions and gatherings.

Hatsune Miku's number is 01.

Gackpoid was released 31 July 2008 so as of this writing, the software will be turning 4 years old in 2012. The character itself, Gakupo, does not seem to have an official age.

There is the character called Black Rock Shooter with black twin tails for hair that could be mistaken as Miku or a variant of Miku. The reality is that the character only coincidentally looks like Miku. Otherwise they are unrelated in that regard. The confusion comes from the use of Miku in a song and video titled "Black Rock Shooter" by ryo (supercell) who was inspired by the original artwork for Black Rock Shooter. The song gained popularity and many fans confused the original Black Rock Shooter character as Miku herself. It is not uncommon to see Music Videos that feature Vocaloid characters dressed differently with varying hair colors and styles, but in this case, they really are separate characters.

There are many other derived fan-made characters of Miku that could cause confusion. Most just have a passing resemblance to her with many being color changes but an example of one that looks basically like Miku is Miku Hagane (there are two versions, H-side and M-side), the heavy metal version of Miku.

No, not exactly. Their family name, Kagamine, comes from combining Kagami (which means mirror) and Ne (which means sound). They were created as mirror images of each other (Rin was made first so she is the oldest). Crypton decided to leave it up to the creator what they were (twins, siblings, lovers or just friends).

KAITO is the 5th Vocaloid to be released for commercial sale on 17 Feb. 2006. Developed by Crypton Future Media, he is their 2nd Vocaloid after MEIKO, running on the 1st generation VOCALOID engine. KAITO is a Japanese male vocalist sampled from voice actor Fuuga Naoto. His voice library will be resampled and updated for compatibility with the Vocaloid 3 engine. He will also be getting an English voice library.

Not yet.

Teto's character item is, apparently, french bread.

Note that Teto Kasane is not a Vocaloid, but an Utauloid for the free singing synthesizer UTAU. Since the Vocaloid and UTAU communities are closely related, Teto and other UTAUloids have many fans within the Vocaloid community and its not surprising to see many songs featuring Teto or other UTAUloids singing alongside their Vocaloid counterparts.
