What does the number 12 mean? The total of 3 plus 9? The number of months contained in a year? Every Miku fan has an answer for themselves. We’ve already celebrated Hatsune Miku’s birthday 11 times, and her 12th will be no exception.

She’s the spotlight that lit up our life in the past, and now we gotta light her up for sure. Arranged by ColorfulMiku Yuiwo, we’ve gathered 39 illustrators in China who love #初音ミク. In the next 39 days, we’ll show you the infinite possibilities of the future! We hope that you, as a Miku fan, can receive the total of every creator’s love. So let’s start to countdown, and paint the genesis of Hatsune Miku together!

Today’s 1st illustration of the 39 day countdown comes from Gu Hai Nìshui!

I feel very lucky to take part in this Anniversary Countdown. I’m very happy about it. Thank you for this opportunity~ Today is a special day just in time. I’ve drawn Miku in そらのサカナ, and a Red Pen in her hand, I’ll be very happy if you can recognize it! Goodnight to powaP. There’s a few days left to Miku’s birthday, and I hope that her smooth and healing voice can reach to the bottom of your heart.

How would you celebrate 3/9 day (Miku Day)? Some Hatsune Miku fans in South Korea came up with the idea to show their love by purchasing some advertising space at the Seoul Sadang subway station.

25 fans pitched in for the fundraiser that began in January 2016, and raised a total of 2,766,977 South Korean Won, or around $2400 USD. This was used to commission the artwork (seen above) from the illustrator BTRP, and purchase the billboard advertising space from February 22nd until March 22nd. The artwork is available on Pixiv in high resolution, so it can be used as a wallpaper!

March 9th is a popular Hatsune Miku appreciation day among fans, since “39” can sound like “Miku” when mixing old and new forms of Japanese. It also sounds like “Thank You”, which is where the “appreciation” part comes into play. So how did you celebrate your 39’s day?
