Hatsune Miku: Saki Fujita

Saki Fujita (藤田咲) is a professional voice actor and the voice provider for the VOCALOID Hatsune Miku.

She was born in 1984 in Tokyo, Japan. In 2003 she was awarded in the contest VS Audition 2003 by Pony Canyon which established her career as a voice actress. Since then, she has built her fame in the industry, providing her voice for many animated shows and computer games. She provided high quality voice samples for VOCALOID2 Hatsune Miku. She has become a veteran of Vocaloid. Due to her familiarization with Vocaloid scripts, she herself stated she now reads the script faster than her first time reading it.[1]

Throughout her time in the vocal synth community, a number of people, including other voice providers working for Crypton Future Media, commented on how professional she remained even when frustrating recording moments occur.[2]

Hatsune Miku: VOCALOID2

Her soft and clear voice caught the attention of Crypton and they adopted Saki for their first VOCALOID2 product and third VOCALOID product overall, Hatsune Miku. Crypton created an instant hit, launching the widely-known VOCALOID trend. Saki Fujita provided a cute, high and clear voice for Hatsune Miku. Now Miku is widely recognized as the most famous and leading vocal synthesizer character, having appeared in concerts worldwide.

Learning English: VOCALOID3

Saki once again reprised her role for the Miku append voicebanks. She took on a new challenge in VOCALOID; providing English-based voice samples as Miku, for the English voicebank of Hatsune Miku. She learned English using an English learning program called "Engrish away!". Due to problems with learning an American accent, she has been progressing slower in her voicebank than a native English speaker. Crypton claims her accent is clearer and more understandable than Yuu Asakawa (Megurine Luka's voice provider).

Trivia

  • Her voice acting prowess would find herself voicing various characters for the browser game Template:IW.

She was born in 1986 in Tottori, Japan. During high school, she developed her talent as a voice actress and received a scholarship for voice actress school.

Megurine Luka: Yuu Asakawa

Yuu Asakawa (浅川悠) is a professional voice actress and the voice provider for Megurine Luka.

She was born in 1975 in Tokyo, Japan. The Luka project started in early 2007, preceding the Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin/Len projects. Crypton had the idea of releasing Luka as their first VOCALOID2 product, but Yuu's and Crypton's schedules did not match well. Therefore, Luka was distributed as the third Crypton voicebank following Miku and Rin/Len.

Yuu can speak competent English, which is why Crypton hired her for Luka. She does not consider herself bilingual and openly admits she has issues with English at times. Her belief in regards to English is she feels it is best to learn better English then it is to learn to precisely speak English. This was reflected in her methods of teaching when she was brought in to aid with producing other English vocals such as Hatsune Miku V4 English.[3]
