Smith Hioka

Akita Nero is the little brother of Akita Neru. He is also a product of so-called anti-Miku campaign.

Design

He has short, choppy blond hair and wears a cropped tank top, knee-length yellow pants and yellow-and-black striped socks. He is sometimes depicted as wearing an outfit similar to Neru's, consisting of a gray sleeveless shirt, a yellow tie, and black pants.

Personality and traits

As per fandom, he is sometimes characterised to be more open, in other depictions shy and confidential, both being a contrast to the mostly tsundere depictions common to the Akita family. However, in Japan, Nero's kinship and his age of 13 years old is mostly considered unofficial.

Recognition of Nero in the overseas community is modest to significant.

Biography

Contrary to popular belief, Nero is a creation of Smith Hioka, and did not originate from Rena-tan (formerly; Hankyou). Nero's origins are connected to Neru herself.

In October of 2007, Miku's pictures became unavailable to search in main search engines in Japan, which incident led to the birth of Neru. Most search engines became normal again in a few days, but Yahoo! Japan showed unusual results nearly for a month. On November 21, 2007, the 2ch board discussed in the thread 2 Miku related news, that abnormalities were noted. After the report, the company seemed to debug the search engine according to each of the 2ch user's indications. Soon the users made a spoof character Nero as "Neru's younger brother and a Yahoo! programmer who was debugging the program manually". His concept art was released on the following day.

Voice configuration

Configuration: Kagamine Len

 EXPLAINED:
Nero has been given a voice at least once, and has been assumed to have originated from Kagamine Len. There is a least one song done to his name. The following configuration is based from Hiyama Kiyoteru.
 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
BREATHINESS (BRE) 0 BRIGHTNESS (BRI) 30 CLEARNESS (CLE) 30
GENDER FACTOR (GEN) -30 OPENING (OPE) 60 RANGE C3 to C5
 SPECIAL NOTES:
The voice from Kiyoteru is an approximation, and is the closest match to Len-based Nero. His voice range is best used within C3 to C5. Using ranges below may give unpredictable results; use with caution. This configuration was researched by Orochi Herman. Crediting, while preferred, is not mandatory.

This example of configuration on the Fanloid wikia should not be viewed as being widely accepted or acknowledged by the character's creator.
