In January 14, 2008 Zero-G released its first Vocaloid 2 product, Prima. What made Prima different from the Vocaloids before her was that her voice was modeled after a professional soprano opera singer. This means she can hit high notes with accuracy and ease. And though she is meant for opera, with a few adjustments Prima's voice is suitable for pop and R&B.
History
When Prima was released in Japan on February 22, 2008, she was often used as a back up singer for Japanese Vocaloid songs. Later on Prima was the first English Vocaloid to be included in the Lipync model series.
Fan Depiction
The LipSync model portrayed Prima as an extremely pale girl wearing a dark red dress, and a white flower in her short, wavy, black hair. Another well known image features Prima in a white trench coat, a skirt with stockings underneath, and a top hat to complete the look.
Prima was given a yandere personality by the Western fandom due to the fact that when people tried to illegally download vocaloids, such as Miku Hatsune and Rin/Len Kagamine, they had to download Prima to get the program in English. However, the illegal downloads of Prima didn’t have proper confirmation codes, causing not only Prima to stop working but other Vocaloid programs as well. Basically if you couldn’t keep her you couldn’t keep any vocaloids.
It is said the Prima’s character item is wine, but because of her yandere nature you’ll more likely see fanart of her holding a weapon rather than an alcoholic beverage.
