Development
On 16th June, 2015 it was revealed that Akira Kano would be made into a Vocaloid. Artwork and a demo was also released. The company stated they were unsure whether the voicebank would be released commercially.[1]
It was later revealed on July 30th that he would be available for a public release. From July 30th to August 13th, customers are able to preorder and reserve the physical starter pack for him, but the download version would follow a normal release. He would be released on September 23rd.[2] He was shown to come with three voicebanks, and be capable of cross-Synthesis. The two "Extension Libraries" are "soft" and "bright". [3]
Characteristics
In his character biography, his personality is described: 'He has a strong sense of duty, and is bright and lively. He is quick to get in a fight, and always has fresh wounds. He has good reflexes and is a popular person who never runs out of requests from different clubs asking for support, starting with his specialty – basketball. On the other hand, he also has an awkward and easily lonely side. He occasionally gets hurt from pranks which don’t have bad intentions.' His birthday is August 5th, and his blood type is O.[4]
His design is based off the school uniform the 2D idol group wears, from the fictional 'Chronos Senior High School'.[5]
