First, about some character design.
This girl, Aoki Lapis a character for Vocaloid.
Vocaloid is a program that the computer character sings or talks the word that the buyer imput.
For example, if you want this Vocaloid to say "Hello", the programmer
just need to type the word Hello, and it would read for you.
This is an intresting character but there was a problem with thi Aoki Lapis.
As you could see, she has a cute looks, design that people would like but
her voice(sound) for talking was not choosed yet.
So this is still just a picture, that couldnt do anything.
The problem is that this character is an "Vocaloid", but it couldnt sing or talk = what is it for?
Its nice to have a good design, but just only designing would not be for its product.

Compare to Aoki Lapis, this Vocaloid Hatsune Miku
had a nice simple desgin and a voice when it was made.
Because of thie simple design (Long green ponytail), most people loved this character and madea lot of other designs for this character.
When a character is to complicated, it is hard for people to make other design, but when itis simple, people are easly able to get in touch with it.
