Kentarō Hayashi will begin the four-panel manga series with a full-color installment.

sigh : (
wish they'd stop trying to make manga out of vocaloid b/c they don't have officially set personalities..
and when it all boils down you are drawing manga about a computer program..
it's like making a serialized manga about adobe photoshop-chan and friends.

[cryinglullaby]

i hope they feature the other vocaloids. like, all of them. but i don't think that's gonna happen.

[Byakuren]

I'm agreeing with Milk on this.

Vocaloids aren't meant to have a set personality, etc, etc. If they keep it like how KEI did his manga, then I'll be fine.

But if they go to the point of shoving a set personality, and trying to make it canon, that's where I'll draw the line.

I really just do not approve of this at all, I probably won't even read it, I won't even consider it 'canon'.

[Mew]

Seems like a really silly idea. I'd be down with this if it was based off a pv for something (like Alice Human Sacrifice) but just a ~general~ thing seems really... :/

[Cluemily]

I'll read it as soon as it comes out. If I see a hint of a canon personality, I put it down. D8 I don't want them to have set personalities, since I love how producers and fans mix them up. Like Gakupo has been flirty, yandere, a pimp etc. I like the personalities they way they are; flexible.

[Kairi Michiko]

I don't like them making a manga at all, in honesty. I mean, the fact that Vocaloid has a manga would defeat the purpose of how they can be whatever they want to be. Now, if the manga is just a bunch of different skits, it might be different. But right now, I'm not impressed.

[SeeU]

ugh i'd totally love it if they did, as kairi michiko said, a bunch of different skits..like have each chapter or something based on a song ;_;

[Nadine]

Umm...nooo? x.x

-Sigh- I really hoped for an anime/manga of the Vocaloid characters, but now that I think about it, its such a bad idea x.x

I mean its not just how they will have set personalities, its the story too I mean now we could make up lots of epic fanfictions and stuff...Once the manga is released doesnt it mean they'll have a story of their own?! o.e

Me no likey ._.

Man, you guys are all really unpleaseable.

"There aren't enough Vocaloids!" becomes "OMG TOO MANY VOCALOIDS!!111!!!!"

And the like.
