Ever wondered what Hatsune Miku would look like if she was drawn in the art style of Yuru Yuri anime and manga series? Well, the series character artist Namori has done just that with a recent doodle on Twitter!

Namori says it’s just a らくがき (sketch), so it leaves us wondering how this art would look if she went crazy with it. It’s already very cute as it is! Check out the full size artwork from the tweet above.

As a fun trivia, the voice actor of Sugiura Ayano from the Yuru Yuri anime series was Fujita Saki, the same voice provider for Hatsune Miku’s VOCALOID voicebank!
