Thanks for the info Gabe.
As for Miku...wow... I mean it does have that "Wow, this is neat" factor, but aside from that...I'm speechless. I'm wondering how this works, really? How much is the sampling from the singer they mentioned, how much is...manufactured? I'm heart-broken over the fact that a computer-generated voice sings better than me though. And seeing the way they draw her and have her standing against a photo-realistic background in the Air video makes me think she belongs in a visual novel before a manga. |

It's funny because I'd been noticing this girl everywhere for a while and unknowingly said to somebody not even an hour ago "This girl is so popular right now it's no longer about if she'll get her own Manga/Anime, it's about when". One of these predictions has been fulfilled, only a matter of time before the other. With Vocaloids overnight explosion over the internet that has caught me as off guard as Haruhi's, I think things will move fast. I'd say a month or two before the first anime announcement.

My apologies. I assumed you were talking about within the anime since it seemed pretty obvious to me that a real person would provide their voice (song or not) just like any other character in Anime. Guess I should have read more carefully. |

Well, it's a brave new world. Between this development and that other piece of news, we can't automatically take human voice actors for granted anymore. |

Only in Japan can this craziness happen. Only difference they're having fun. We just have a crazy old president. Ahem.
I always wondered about this character. I'd see fan art all over the place. The first time I was introduced to the character was on Youtube. Someone posted a clip of her singing 'Nintendo' famicon tunes. Hell, they're computer based and so isn't she. So she's a master at the vocalization. Weird. There's an album you can buy. So I after awhile I kept seeing the character and wondering "So is there an anime for this character or something?" Hey if she's getting her own manga then an anime may not be far behind. |

The air song gets seriously annoying after sometime I listen to it. comparing it to the "still alive" from the ending of portal which I listened to for a full day, i would say its not the computer-sounding voice that annoys me. maybe its because its all the same sounds only on different pitch or something...
some one just listen to the air song over and over again and tell me if you feel weird in any way... |

I'm glad the manga is by her original designer, that's what drew me to her (her character design)...I've already pre-ordered the Nendroid of her that's coming out in a few months. I'm quite looking forward to this manga
