Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 19

Did you know that Hatsune Miku has made a guest appearance in an anime? Miku and other Vocaloids apparently appeared in episode 5 and 13 of “Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei” auditioning to dub Otonashi Meru’s voice.

Miku as a voice actress? I think that’s a cute idea, don’t you? Thanks to Reign for sending this!

Vocaloid 2: Kagamine Len and Rin 02

The Kagamine were slow to gain popularity in the Japanese fandom after the backlash of their original voicebanks. Although they have the most songs combined, they are no where near as popular as their predecessor, Hatsune Miku. Kaito’s failure had, in part, pushed male Vocaloids in so little demand that Len was not used as much as Rin. They do, however, have a larger fan following than Miku, and Len’s fans are also labeled among the most scary Vocaloid fans on YouTube.

This is pretty awesome! Especially their expressions, like the contributor, Cherokee, pointed out. I wonder if those are Kaito’s scarves? And is there a song that goes with this cosplay?

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka and Hiyama Kiyoteru

Just be friends All we gotta do
Just be friends It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends All we gotta do
Just be friends Just be friends...

For a long time now, I've been meaning to feature this cosplay, but I didn’t know who the other person with Luka was and didn’t want to post this in the Unknown section. Then, a friend of mine suggested, “Why don’t you just call him ‘tomodachi’? The song that cosplay is from is entitled ‘Just be Friends’!”

Best suggestion ever! Unless someone already gave the guy an unofficial name we don’t know about? Thanks to Lyrica for sending this and to Susan for suggesting the name!

EDIT: My bad! It appears he really does have a name. Thanks to Chồn Bão for commenting he is Hiyama Kiyoteru!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luki and Megurine Luka

Now here is a Megurine Luka cosplay you don’t get to see everyday.

I thought they were two Lukas at first, but apparently, he is actually Luki, the genderbent version of Luka. Luki sings one or two octaves lower than Luka, giving her a male voice despite using the same voice configuration. Among the Japanese fandom, voice configuration is often the way Genderbent Vocaloids are created.

In any case, great cosplay by Astellecia and Hiyuki! Please be sure to visit their galleries too!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 18

Did you guys know that Miku has already stared in several of her very own manga?

“Maker Hikoshiki Hatsune Mix” began serialization in the Japanese manga magazine Comic Rush on the 26th of November 2007. The manga is drawn by Kei, the original character designer for Miku. “Hachune Miku no Nichijo Roipara!” is another series drawn by Ontama which began serialization in Comp Ace on the 26th of December 2007.

Since not everyone gets to buy Japanese publication, you might want to settle for the “Chibi Miku-san” yonkoma webcomic made by Minami.

In any case, another beautiful Miku cosplayer photographed by the lovely MPzero! Thanks again to Yukino for sending this in!

Vocaloid 2: Kamui Gakupo 02

Although Gakupoid was originally set for release on June 2008 with Gackt as a model for the Vocaloid, its illustrated avatar was yet to be determined. Popular manga author Miura Kentarou of Berserk was finally asked to do the illustration, and due to his affection for Nico Nico Douga, he actually offered his services as a character designer for free. Gakupoid was thus released with Kamui Gakupo on the 31st of July 2008.

Awesome cosplay! And very awesome of the mangaka to create such quality work for free. Thanks to Kei for suggesting this!

Vocaloid 2: Kagamine Len 07

Kagamine Len is currently the only male Vocaloid with Appends assigned to him. They added an additional 6 voicebanks in the Append on top of the originals; a total of 10 voicebanks and the most of any Vocaloid. The Kagamine’s Append was split and 3 recorded in two different scales for Rin and Len accordingly.

This is a pretty awesome costume for Len. I wonder where it’s from? Thanks to Tina for sharing this!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka, Kaito, and Hatsune Miku

It appears that Kaito has his hands full- Ahem.

With the current surge of Vocaloid cosplayers, I beginning to find it hard to write anything more about them; especially Miku. So can anyone tell me which song this could cosplay could be from instead? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks to Desidia for suggesting this!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 16

Saken de mita MEGAPHONE wa kowareteta no
The megaphone I tried shouting in, was broken

Dore dake senobi shitatte
How hard I try to overreach myself,

Kimi no shikai ni hairanai
I would fail to get into your sight.

And those would be the lyrics from Hatsune Miku’s “Love is War”! I have to say, I'm really impressed with how she was able to get her wig to fly like that! Awesome cosplay by Kirana and photography by Kira Winter! Thanks again to Cherry for sending this!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin

You know that a character has reached new heights when a fan decides to launch a petition to create a custom made plate of the said character that will be used as a balancing weight for a... spacecraft explorer?!

That is exactly what Sumio "chodensi-P" Morioka did. In November 2009, he started the Hatsune Miku aluminum plate petition for the Japanese Venus spacecraft explorer, Akatsuki, which will be launched in summer of 2010. Dr. Seiichi Sakamoto of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency backed him up but only reached the 10,000 signatures necessary after the original deadline; 20th of December 2009. However, due to the delays in the Akatsuki project, a new deadline, 6th of January 2010 was set, and the project received over 14,000 signatures.

Awesome fanbase with great cosplayers too! It makes me wonder what songs this Miku and Rin are in. Thanks to Riffonliner for emailing the photo!

Vocaloid 2: Kagamine Rin 10

Kagamine Rin is the third character to have reached 10 features in Cosplay Holic! In case you missed it, the first one was Hatsune Miku who is also from Vocaloid, and the second was Kuran Kaname from Vampire Knight.

I guess this goes to show how popular Miku, Kaname, and Rin are. Then again, Kaname is one of my favorite characters, so it may be a little biased… just a little! Thanks to China for suggesting this!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka 07

If I were to take a wild guess (which I did), I’d say she was from Pink Sweets; the game I’m not entirely familiar with. However, after further searching, I was not able to come across any character from that series who resembles this cosplayer at all.

I’m just hoping my readers’ guesses turn out to be much better than mine. Thanks to Ikehara for suggesting this!

EDIT: Thanks to Anon for letting me know this is Megurine Luka from the PV "Cinnamon Roll"!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Len

The most popular Vocaloid, Hatsune Miku, is accompanied by a rather grown-up looking version of Kagamine Rin's "twin", Kagamine Len. It makes you wonder if Kaito will get jealous over this picture.

Then again, Len and Rin are supposedly "one and the same", aren't they? Where in the world could Rin be?

I can't believe how cute this video is! Please check it out, you won't be disappointed!

Here are some notes from Peggy, the animator and the cosplayer of Miku:

song by Supercell,he's a very famous composer in the world of vocaloid!
Did a cosplay PV for it because this is one of the first few songs that i heard from a vocaloid and its kinda memorable to me.

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 15

There has been an overwhelming amount of high quality Miku cosplayers lately that… I am running out of things to say about her! She is, however, one of those rare characters who have so many different outfits that it’s hard to keep track.

So does anyone of my readers know which video or soundtrack this Miku is from? Thanks to Ys for sending this!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka 02

Unlike Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin and Len, Megurine Luka's costume is not based on a school uniform. This is probably because Luka has a "moody yet husky female voice" with a "cool, somewhat mysterious" character. One of the first few songs produced, "RIP=RELEASE" took the number one spot on the 70th Weekly Vocaloid Ranking. The song earned 843,233 points during its first week, the highest one-week score ever recorded.

Beautiful MoeHaku Luka! I didn't even know this was her official costume until I received this contribution. Thanks, Wikia!
