PERSONALITY: Yuki is shy when with strangers and can seem a bit childish, but once she opens up, she can be mature at some times and hyper at others. She is also a closet otaku. She hates it when her friend Midorine Nori calls her moe (it makes sense, though, considering the fact that she is busty for her age, shy at times, has long hair, and glasses). Yuki bottles most of her sadness inside of her. On a couple of occasions, she has started to cry about completly ridiculous things. Yuki enjoys giving gifts to her friends, often to the point of not having anything left to herself. Because of this, it is very easy to take advantage of her. Yuki has been known to sleep in odd places (under beds, once in a tree, etc...)

Creation

Yuki was originally a fanmade vocaloid created in 2008. No images of her were uploaded to the internet, but her

creator has drawn a picture of Yuki's original art.

Yuki, as a "fanloid", was a outgoing, cute girl who was loved by everyone at her school. She was perfect and had many boys who wanted to date her. Despite the fact that Yuki dressed like a prostitute, she was a goody goody and wanted to keep her purity. When she met Kagamine Len, they instantly fell in love and made love the first day. The creator was going through a weaboo phase, mind you. After seeing the "errors of her ways", the creator modified Yuki a bit. However, she still had Mary-Sue traits. After going through many changes, the creator believed that Yuki was ready to be shown to the public. The creator herself is not sure how many design changes Yuki went through, but she believes it was around 7 changes.

Becoming an UTAU

A friend of Yuki's creator introduced her to UTAU. The first time "Yuki" was recorded, she had a low, masucline-sounding voice. Unsatisfied, she was re-recorded. This time, her creator used a higher, whisper-y voice. This voicebank was lost, however. Yuki was recorded 2 more times before her ACT 1 was released.

ACT 1

Yuki's ACT 1 had a soft, whispery voicebank that was intended to sound "gentle and soothing", however, it sounded quite the oppisite: Yandere and a bit glitchy. Even so, her creator was satisfied with the final results.

Autumn Leaves

There was once a story about Yuki written by the creator, who was influenced by Yuki's "yandere sounding voicebank". In the story, Yuki is a yandere who brutally murders her friends, including Kimune Yokina, Xzura Linedi and even her younger sister Akine Chiaki. The story was removed by the creator, however, and was left unfinished.

Breaking the fourth wall

When Yuki ACT 1 was "complete" (this was the second time it was recorded), her test song was Tailor Shop on Enbizaka. However, when the creator and her friend tried to close UTAU, Yuki wouldn't stop singing. But strangely, when they held nutella in front of the screen, she stopped singing for a while. Eventually, they just shut down the computer. The creator says "Yuki was pretty fucking pissed that we downloaded a new VB after we finished her xD"

ACT 2

Due to Yuki ACT 1 having a few problems (glitchy-sounding oto, a too "yandere" sounding voicebank", missing syllables), the creator decided to create Yuki Akine ACT 2. She used better quality microphone for this ACT. She also made sure that Yuki had all of her hiragana, including quite a few extra. Finally, she also made sure that Yuki had a more "moe" voice.
