Think of it this way. If a illustration of a character does not come from a company's commissioned artists then it is not official and therefore any illustration of a copyrighted character, used commercially, is derived. The Miku in "World is Mine" is Supercell's version, it is not Crypton's version of Miku because they never portrayed her as such.

Another example is Rin in "Story of Evil", the derivative is named Riliane, but obviously she looks like Rin. A derivative does not always posses a drastic change from its source.
