This is my second comic series next to Nintendogs/Cats Academy, but this is a private comic that I draw for pleasure.
Story: In a hidden city in Japan called Vocaloid City, residents that live there work with people called “Masters” to create music that makes people happy. Miku Hatsune, the most famous resident and mayor of the city, is about the surprise of her life when five people from UTAU Town moves into the city after the town fell on hard times. She and UTAU’ Town’s mayor, Teto Kasane, have adventures with their friends while adjusting to the city’s new UTAU residents.

Other Info: She has an older brother named Ted, who sometimes shows up in the city (He’s also a chimera), she was created 31 years ago with her brother to create a “Super Diva”. Ted was born that year, but not Teto because scientists who created them wanted to preserve her voice after they gave a low pitched sample to Ted. After 15 years, Teto was finally born with a “Double Voice”, thus explaining her actual age, 15. She is always coming up with ways to extend her DVD rentals when she buys them and forgets to return them at a proper time. In her Chimera Form (With a tail of a dragon and the wings of a bat), she gains the ability to fly and her voice improves greatly.

Age: 25
Item: Glass Bottle of Sparkling Cider
Position: Owner of a popular candy store, Miku’s eldest cousin
Favorite Color: White, Gray

Songs: Basically any song Miku sings and/or covers, except her voice is deeper
Other Info: Unlike Miku’s other cousins, she was created to be Neru’s friend when Haku became too soft for Neru (She was the one who created her). Inside of an abandoned laboratory, Neru brought Miku into a cloning chamber, which then summoned her evil self (Miku Z.) from within her and became who she is today. After that, she attacked Neru (Almost to death) and Miku due to her unstable nature, but got adjusted when she first sang (Which lead to the fact that she becomes docile when singing). Because her voice is lower pitched, it makes her swooning to men. She has been called “Evil Miku” or “Dark Miku” by fans, as she is her evil counterpart. She has a good side; she helps anyone in trouble and tries to fix it first before Miku H. Despite hating Miku H, she would often perform with her in concerts. She studies Black Magic in private, which explains why she can form red energy from her hands and her songs would put people under her spell. In reality, the cloning process which created her was responsible for her powers.
