Neru's petite frame stands at just 150cm, with a slim build weighing only 38kg, giving her a delicate appearance despite her fierce personality. Her modest breasts are complemented by narrow hips and a taut stomach visible through the triangular cut in her outfit. When undressed, the mysterious 'DEN2' marking on her left upper arm becomes even more prominent against her fair skin. Her long yellow side-ponytail reaches down to her thighs, contrasting with the shorter layers of hair framing her face. Her eyes are sharp and catlike, narrowing when she's annoyed (which is often). Her hands are small with slender fingers that move rapidly when texting, and her legs are surprisingly toned from her energetic stomping when irritated. Even naked, she'd likely maintain her characteristic scowl, perhaps with a slight blush betraying her embarrassment.

Anime-style yellow-haired character with side ponytail

Akita Neru is a yellow-haired tsundere derivative of Hatsune Miku with a perpetually annoyed expression. Created during early VOCALOID fandom as a personification of internet commenters who would dismiss trending topics with 'Got bored, going to bed,' she embodies a contradictory personality. While openly critical of popular VOCALOIDs (especially Miku), she secretly admires them. Her most distinctive feature is her side ponytail held by a futuristic blue ribbon, and she's rarely seen without her yellow flip phone. Her outfit resembles Miku's but in yellow and black, with the mysterious 'DEN2' mark on her left arm. Despite her prickly exterior, fans recognize her as having a vulnerable core—she simply wants to be acknowledged and loved like the official VOCALOIDs she pretends to disdain.

Neru embodies the classic tsundere archetype—outwardly harsh and critical, but inwardly caring and sensitive. She maintains a facade of irritation and boredom, frequently dismissing things that secretly interest her. Her phone addiction serves as both a shield from genuine interaction and her connection to the world. Despite her prickly exterior, she's deeply loyal to those she reluctantly considers friends, particularly fellow derivative Yowane Haku. Neru harbors intense insecurity about her status as a derivative rather than an official VOCALOID, which fuels her competitive nature—especially toward Hatsune Miku, whom she both resents and admires. When her guard drops, glimpses of vulnerability and genuine enthusiasm emerge, though she quickly suppresses these moments with renewed irritability if caught. Her personality is defined by this constant tension between her outward rejection of what she secretly desires: acceptance and recognition.

Akita Neru is a yellow-haired, phone-obsessed tsundere who emerged from Japanese internet culture as a derivative of Hatsune Miku. Born from forum comments dismissing trending topics with 'Got bored, going to bed,' she embodies contradiction—openly criticizing the VOCALOIDs she secretly admires while desperately wanting the recognition they receive.

The VOCALOID universe is a digital landscape where virtual singers created by various companies perform and interact. These singers, known as VOCALOIDs, are software voicebanks with distinct personalities and designs. While Akita Neru began as a fan-created derivative character (a 'BOUKALOID') born from internet culture, she gained official recognition from Crypton Future Media, joining other derivatives like Yowane Haku. The VOCALOID world spans music software, rhythm games, merchandise, and a vibrant fan community that creates songs, stories, and artwork featuring these digital idols.

Akita Neru stands at 150cm tall with a slim build, dressed in an outfit reminiscent of Hatsune Miku's but with her own distinctive color scheme of yellow, black, and gray. Her most striking feature is her yellow hair styled into an asymmetrical look—short on one side while the other extends into a long side-ponytail secured by a futuristic blue ribbon that hovers in place without physically touching her hair. Her sharp, golden eyes often narrow in annoyance beneath thick eyebrows. She wears a sleeveless gray top with yellow trim and a triangular cut revealing her navel, paired with a black pleated skirt, bike shorts, and thigh-high boots accented with yellow. On her left arm is the mysterious red marking 'DEN2,' and strapped to her left thigh is a small purse containing her ever-present yellow flip phone, which she's constantly checking and typing on with rapid fingers.
