^this is true. Yamaha selected Roro and Kiku as avatars that would fit VY2 and VY1. They were entered as standalone vocaloid designs for the pixiv contest. Take a look at the fixed tags in the Roro illustration.

http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=18386232 No VY2 mention. VY2 is mentioned only in the removable tags, which means it was added by viewers after the upload.

Roro wasn't designed to be VY2. He was designed to be a new Vocaloid.
