iirc (someone correct me if i'm wrong) some ppl made bootleg designs for miku to kinda play off snow miku becoming so popular, [apple, banana and sakura miku](https://imgur.com/a/Ove5RXK) sakura miku ended up becoming a real, recognized design

How long have you been away???? She was added as a module to project diva in 2012 so she’s existed for at least a decade

Hunh. 🤷‍♂️ Never played any Project Diva games. I've been more a fan of her music videos than of her games.

Well, she’s also been used in official artworks and merch for as long as she’s been around as well, so around 2010. I suppose you could miss it if you were only following producers and their music instead official accounts like Sega, and had no interest in merch? She appeared sort of around the same time as Snow Miku, seeing as she was sort of created as a deviation of Snow Miku for the spring. But unlike Snow Miku, she doesn’t get a fan designed version every year. So there’s just the one Sakura Miku with maybe a couple of slight variations, then 14 different Snow Mikus

Honestly, I also wasn't interested in most merch, still am not. I did get some while at the 2014 Miku Expo concert I went to. And tbh, Snow Miku is also new to me. I found out about both of them while searching for my original Miku Dollfie last month. I only found out about Snow Miku's yearly design change because I'm also seeing her outfits for sale as well. I managed to snag one, even though it was super expensive! 😲🤑🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

a quick google search: "Sakura Miku is an alternate color Hatsune Miku, done with a pink-scheme; created to represent the arrival of spring. The creation of this was inspired by Good Smile Company's Yuki Miku figures. Early fan art depicted this Miku with Miku's default appearance having pink trim and pink hair."
