Kobushi Kiku

Kiku Kobushi is an un-official VY1 mascot illustrated by Rimiko.

History
During VocaFest 2011, there was a fan competition to illustrate a mascot for the VY1 and VY2 software as a method of perceiving how the fandom thought of VY1 and VY2. Rimiko won for VY1 while Manbou no Ane won for VY2. These mascots were later redefined for an illustration book. While they are being used promotionally it is to be noted that these winning mascots are not official designs for the VY software.

Unlike Roro, the winning VY2 mascot, Kiku has not featured in many PVs and Fanart. This may be due to the fact that fans have already established mascots for the VY1 software before VocaFest.

Trivia

 * Much like Roro fans should not confuse Kiku to be the official avatar for VY1 as the VY series is meant to be avatarless, leaving fans to think up their own characters.
