NAT is the guy/girl for Vocaloid news on twitter really. He/she also voices opinion whenever there's a rising topic/discussion (most recent one was discussion regarding Hachi's Sand Planet and what it does to the vocaloid community AFAIK). NAT is a member of the vocalendar and pretty much went to any event he/she can attend.

Looks like Mitchie M might be working on a new song! Wonder if it's related to that screenshot he shared of Miku and Meiko in the new Piapro.

(Rough translation.)
It says:
Next is making the chorus and touching-up the talkloid
I dunno what to call "talkloid" in English, but that's what you're getting. Seems there is a talking section in the song he's making with Meiko and Miku.



For the Piko stuff, I dunno what to say. We talked about this recently in the Discord, but no one knew what I was talking about, because for some weird reason, tons of people call Miki codename miki, but completely don't notice that Piko's box says "codename PIKO" on it.


The stuff about Yuki is weird but cute/funny/interesting.

Looking back, frankly, I don't know how I missed it. Imagine a world where AHS had picked up Piko as well. That would've been so nice ;;

The only girl I'm not familiar with is Aoi. I'm actually disappointed they don't have any guys in the Pocari lineup. What about us girl otaku who wanna look at ikemen?! It's kind of weird how Meiko is the only one wearing all red, everyone else looks quite blue-themed. Crypton even gave Miku a custom outfit, but Meiko didn't get one. (Coulda had Kaito, he is blue and a dude. 👀)


Commenters are surprised, because they thought virtual singers were the rivals of Crypton and either want them to get along or hate it.

Edit: Checked out their product line, all of them are basically the same flavor and coloring (blue and white) but in different types of bottles. That and the fact Wat said they were late makes me think they just slapped Meiko in there to get her in there. Maybe they will give her a blue outfit later? I thought they might have other flavors/colors that match the girls, but no.

The 2020 design for Racing Miku has been revealed. Artis is LEN[A-7]. An interesting design, kind of reminds me of 2010 Racing Miku with the pit crew/mechanic theme.


If I may say so, but I don't find this design all that exciting, it just feels a bit dull compared to the designs from previous years. Maybe it'll grow on me, but as of now I'm not very impressed.

Oh, that's 2020 actual Racing design? While scrolling fast this morning I thought it was for some other collaboration (She honestly reminded of that recent 7net figure) since Racing Miku's seem to have more of visual punch - yeah, I'm not that impressed either honestly. Other designs you either like or dislike but I feel this one is going to make many people go 'meh'? Like it's not bad but there's isn't much going on either to like.

I'm excited about the Pocari Sweat collaboration, though! I do agree that Meiko would have looked better with a blue outfit like Miku, she really stands out right now 👀
And using Kaito does seem like a better idea but Wat seems very focused on pleasing Meiko fans. At least until the end of the year, let's see how much that'll last lol Since even with this collab a few things feels rushed but, hey, it's Crypton at least we are getting some Meiko rep

Some background info on the Yuzuki Yukari Mμ Project:


And now, Ishiguro is creating her own in-house developed version of Yuzuki Yukari to use in a variety of media like livestreams, VR concerts, and more in real time (as in nothing pre-recorded); all of her spoken sentences and movements would be done fully live and on-the-spot by Ishiguro herself. Again, think Vtubers. To this end, she has started a crowdfunding campaign called Chihiro Ishiguro x Yuzuki Yukari! Let’s make the 2.5D character ‘Yuzuki Yukari Mμ’ together on CAMPFIRE!
