{|width="90%" cellspacing="0" border="1" align="center"|colspan="6"| |-|colspan="6"|NAME INTERPRETATION: 欲音 (Yokune) - Greedy Sound, from the fact that she has two voicebanks (female and male). However, her name is also a playword on the phrase Yoku Neru ko. Alternatively, her whole name is sometimes written as よく寝る子 (yoku neru ko), which translates as "The girl who sleeps a lot."|-|colspan="6"|TYPE: VOCAROID MODEL: 65 - She used to bear the same body model 03 as her true counterpart, Luka Megurine at first. Just like with Teto vip@2ch (under the parody name CRIPTON) designed her as the probable CV03, the Character Vocal Series 03 from Crypton. Then her model was converted to 6 (roku) 5 (go), which has a similar pronunciation with her name Ruko.|-|align="center"|GENDER|Hermaphrodite (10% female, 90% male.

She is also drowsy a lot of the time. Ruko also has a closet gambling habit. She likes being petted, and reacts like a cat. However, getting on her bad side earns you frequent invectives from her.|} ==Supplemental Information==Hair color''': Black pigtails with blue streaks Headgear: None Eye color: Heterochromatic (odd-eye). Blue (left) and red (right). Earphones: Red headset with blue illumination. Dress: A white tight sleeveless dress shirt covered by a dark blue sleeveless dress coat, complete with detached sleeves and blue necktie; she wears black low-cut pants which exposes a pair of black string underwear. Others: She wears only one glove, on her right hand. Nationality/Race: Japanese Favorite phrase: Hakumai yori mugimeshi daro konoyaro! (白米より麦飯だろコノヤロー！; I like barley than rice, you bastard!). Also she often says "konoyaro!" (you bastard!) Although recognized as a hermaphrodite in Japan, Ruko is mostly seen, illustrated and depicted as a female in the Overseas UTAU scene, due to her aesthetics. ==Voice Configuration==Ruko comes in two voicebanks; Male and Female. These voicebanks have mixed encoding; Phonemes directed for Japanese vocalizations are encoded in Kana. Phonemes directed for partial English compatibility are encoded in Romaji, comprising mostly of dipthongs (double vowels). Both male and female voicebanks of Ruko have these. However, she is primarily designed for only the Japanese language. Her supposed bilingual capability is apparently part of the CV03 joke towards Luka, which does not apply anymore, having her own identity and model code changed. Western users intending to use Ruko should either have the Japanese non-unicode setting as their system locale, or manually convert the kana phonemes into Romaji. Ruko's quality is higher than Defoko or Teto's, but singing quality still depends on its user. She is available in the regular and triphonic (renzoku) voicebanks, downloadable at her website here. ==Piapro==Piapro, which is operated by Crypton, now accepts Ruko's illustrations. To clear up the issues related to copyright, users are encouraged to post the illustrations onto the site (need to create your account), and Piapro and Long Sleeper, the official association of Ruko, give approval to the NON-COMMERCIAL use of these creations automatically when uploaded.
