The Fairy-like Hatsune Miku has been drawn by a lot of well known artists and now, another legendary one joins the fray.

If you are familiar with Fairy Tail, Rave and Mashima’s art style in general, you might even think that his version of Miku looks a bit like Wendy from Fairy Tail with those twin tails and all, don’t you think?


Both CD’s will be released on September 3 and will be available to Family Mart stores all over Japan. There’s no mention whether these CD’s will be available to Family Mart stores outside Japan such as the ones in America, the Philippines and Thailand.


Mashima’s Miku artwork has also been featured in DECO*27 and 40mP’s music video, HOME feat. Hatsune Miku .



A sticker sheet based on the artwork by various artists like Nasos and Chakoro will also be provided as part of the promo.
