Why they are intended to be a pair, Kaito was shipped two years after Meiko approx. Both were the original "VY" series, being they were representative of Yamaha's standard. They were never going to be continued post V1. There was no reason to it as V1 was old tech and no one should have cared enough for it to buy it once V2 came around.

Obviously, this was not the case and CFM took over the handling of the pair overall.

But even though they were released different times, they are still a vocal pair as is Prima and Tonio who also were sold in different years. Kaito and Meiko were the Leon and Lola of Japanese vocaloids in V1, be it they weren't based on one single genre of music like Leon and Lola were (soul music). Meiko was intended to be general genre, as was Kaito though he had a preference for Jazz.

With no age limit, there is nothing much to say on how old each of them are, except CFM normally depicts them as adults either about as young as Luka's age or as old as middle age. So even though with no age they could be considered "teens" as well, CFM has never really sold them as that. As far as their original dev team from Yamaha, there was even less of a depiction as they were just a male and female Vocaloids. There isn't much to say on the pair beyond this and Miku, the Kagamines and Luka have by far much more details on them. And considering despite the bio there isn't much on those 4... You're talking about two vocals that have next to nothing on them. Even down to design, Kaito and Meiko are professional vocals as I pointed out previously and Miku, the Kagamines and Luka are voice acted. :-?

Its not we're stopping the shipping, but rather pointing out the obvious elephant in the room concerning things like Kaito x Miku versus Meiko x Kaito. Its pure fluke that Kaito sounds good with Miku, but bare in mind he sounds good with a lot of Vocaloids including Gackpo. He just turned out to be a generally all-round vocaloid, something nobody could possibility have predicted when he was made in V1.
