Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F 2nd Review (Vita)

THE WORLD IS HERS

Japan’s most popular digital pop star, Hatsune Miku, has been slowly and steadily taking over the world. In addition to performing several of her own concerts in the US, over the past few years she has opened for Lady Gaga, modeled for Marc Jacobs, and most recently, performed on The Late Show With David Letterman. Not bad for a girl that isn’t even real.
