いよいよ『初音ミク V6』は、4月14日に皆様のお手元にリリース致します。また、その頃には『初音ミク V6』に続く（一層、英語が得意な……）次のVOCALOIDの開発も本格化しているはずです。引き続きよろしくお願い致します。

"Hatsune Miku V6" will finally be released into your hands on April 14th. Also, around that time, development of the next VOCALOID to follow "Hatsune Miku V6" (which will be even better at English...) should be in full swing. Thank you for your continued support.

Sonicwire blog post

Cross posting from the Miku V6 thread, but it seems we have formal confirmation that we’re getting V6 releases for the rest of the Crypton family! From the “better at English” hint it seems pretty likely that Luka V6 might be next (which I AM SO EXCITED FOR)

It'll be interesting to see if Luka NT2 will be released first, or maybe Luka V6, or announced both at same time From what Wataru Sasaki said, it feels like Luka V6 is the next in line for development of Vocaloid, and in the past months we got some hints about Luka NT2 development going very well, so it might be that Luka NT2 will be focused on japanese language (like Miku NT), while Luka V6 main focus will be english, that's why I feel they might announce both at same time (this spring or in summer during Magical Mirai)

As part of this project, a special program hosted by Hatsune Miku, "MIKU TONIGHT!", has also been released on YouTube. The program features three creators active both in Japan and overseas (PinocchioP, SAWTOWNE, and DECO*27), as well as our CEO and "creator of Hatsune Miku," Hiroyuki Ito, as guests. The video content offers a glimpse into the past and future of the co-creation culture that began with the appearance of Hatsune Miku and has since spread globally, becoming known as "Vocaloid culture."
