Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX — Adorable overload

Super kawaii: Miku started off as an adorable mascot for a voice synthesiser software but is now a global phenomenon and superstar in her own right.

Japan’s virtual pop idol Hatsune Miku finally gets an English release. And oh my goodness, this is the most adowwwable rhythm game we’ve ever played!

Japan has such a weird fascination with technology and cuteness that I wouldn’t be surprised if they accidentally instigated the most kawaii robot apocalypse ever. Take, for example, its creation of Hatsune Miku: she started off as an adorable mascot character for a voice synthesiser software but has since evolved into the world’s first virtual pop star and a beloved cultural phenomenon.
