Haruno Sora (桜乃そら) is a Japanese VOCALOID developed by and distributed by AH-Software Co. Ltd.. She was released for the VOCALOID5 engine in July 2018.
She is voiced by Kikuko Inoue (井上 喜久子; Inoue Kikuko), a Japanese voice actress and singer.
Concept[]
Sora is a 17-year-old gentle and quiet girl. On stage as a singer, she has two different singing styles - "gentle and soft"[3] and "cool and sharp".[4]
Etymology[]
The first kanji in her name "桜" means "cherry blossom." The second kanji "乃" is commonly used in names as well as an alternative spelling of the possessive particle "の". "そら" is the hiragana version of "空", the kanji character for "sky". The full meaning of the name is "sky of cherry blossoms".
Appearance[]
Sora's appearance is that of a young woman with a mature air. She has long colorful hair, light blue eyes, and a mole near her lip. Both her Natural and Cool designs consist of a butterfly motif.
Her "Natural" design is a fitted top and pencil skirt with whites and blues. A transparent bustle complimented by a pink bouquet and small white hat with a long ribbon. Her footwear is turquoise boots with fat heels.
The "Cool" design is a mix of 18th century fashions with a red and black theme having a matching jacket and wide-brimmed hat with a butterfly acting as a pin. She wears white gloves, shorts, and heels.

- Haruno Sora - Cool
- "Cool" is a support vocal for the main "Natural" vocal and is designed to be much clearer and more powerful sounding. It is better for rock and enka music.

- Haruno Sora - Talk
- The talk version of the voice runs on VOICEROID and has tones that match the VOCALOID voicebanks. It is designed so that producers can use both speech and singing results in production and for the listener to be able to tell that they are the same character.
