Out of sheer curiosity I looked that one up. If we consider their appearance to be their release date, Rin/Len (Act 1) came out on Dec 27 2007. According to this wiki Neru appeared Nov 1, while Haku appeared 21 Nov, interestingly in the exact same year as the Kagamines and not only that but a month before them. Either way the two are essentially memes just like character items because of their "purpose of being" so to speak. And before I get the "I'm no fun" brigade at me I am quite fond of Neru only because I am a sucker for side ponytails. And there is nothing wrong with liking those characters so long as you acknowledge the fact they were just to fill up the empty spaces in the Vocaloid cast, and to be poked fun of.
