New Vocaloid

Finally a new male vocaloid! I am still in a crazy sort of love with the last, Hirayama Kiyoteru, but this new one; not sure what to think of him. Not only is he looking like a white haired collision of Len & the annoying Miki, but it seems his voice is to come from the "popular" nico nico douga singer Piko. Even though I like Piko I'd really have preferred a different type of voice for a new vocaloid. But it's all good! I'm just happy to be getting a new male character, lol. So anyways. His name is "Utatane Piko". He is official & being produced by Sony. Release date set for Dec, 08 of this year. More info below:

"Latest information has revealed that there will be a new Vocaloid joining the family and this time round Sony Music has decided to join in the market. This Vocaloid will be distributed under Sony Music Distribution and the name for the Japanese male Vocaloid (utilizing the Vocaloid2 engine) will be known as Utatane Piko (歌手音ピコ). For those wondering Piko is a popular singer on Nico Nico Douga with his community here.

He is expected to be released on December 8th 2010 at a price of 15,750 yen (tax included) and you can pre-order the software over at Sony Music Shop. We will be bringing more news on this when it’s made known." - vocaloidism
