Miku and Rin Update

GarbledOne's picture

First of all as of 11/16/2007 the Kagamine Rin site is finally up. I don't know how I missed that, but I can probably blame Vegas. It describes Rin with the following traits:

  • Age: 14 years old

  • Height: 152 cm (~5 feet)
  • Weight: 43kg
    She excels at:

  • Genres: Rock-style Pop / Pop Songs ~ Enka-style Pop
  • Song Tempos: 85-175BPM
  • Ranges: F#3~C#5

There have been no changes or clarifications to her release date, which is still set for December 2007. Voice samples are also still under preparation.

Her age finally confirms what we all were thinking: that she really is Miku's 妹 (Miku is 16). You know what that means... Hawt sister duets (and other more suspicious doujinshi... Unfortunately they probably won't feature Symmetrical Docking though).

In Hatsune Miku news, it has apparently been announced that the theme song of Nippon Ichi Software's new title Tori no Hoshi ~Aerial Planet~ (トリノホシ ~Aerial Planet~) will be sung by Miku. (Via ミクミク)

Frankly I'm not sure how to feel about this announcement. While I'm ecstatic that Miku will be getting a large amount of publicity for this, I also used to work for the US branch of the company. Disillusionment with the gaming industry, I suppose.

Anyway, some Nico Miku links after the break.

If Rin is gonna be Enka-style, I hope a lot of people are going to start making covers of Kogami Akira from Lucky Channel. Example:
