As Serza5 stated the item makes the character more dynamic, it becomes community base, it is something that the fandom connects with. Like a "we're all in on it". Hence the Meme aspect of sorts.

Miku's official item may be negi, but you can't say she likes it because she still has no personality to do so, that would be stepping on other peoples creativity.
