Cute， easy-going， and light-hearted book。Nothing too over-the top， but a good book to read when you have a rough day。 Recommend looking into Vocaloid BEFORE taking a look at this manga。

Having read Hatsune Miku， I expected this to be equally awful。 It is not quite as bad; there is no unifying story， but there are some clever vignettes。One down and two to go （I don't have volume 4）。 Having read Hatsune Miku， I expected this to be equally awful。 It is not quite as bad; there is no unifying story， but there are some clever vignettes。One down and two to go （I don't have volume 4）。 。。。more

I like VOCALOIDs a lot so I was hoping that this would be at least kind of good， but it was just really boring and kind of hard to follow at some points。 It's also more episodic in nature and doesn't have a core story， which would be fine if it were done a little better。 I just wish there was a little more structure to the different sections; it wasn't super clear where one began and another ended or even what really went on within one chapter。 Overall， really disappointing :（ I like VOCALOIDs a lot so I was hoping that this would be at least kind of good， but it was just really boring and kind of hard to follow at some points。 It's also more episodic in nature and doesn't have a core story， which would be fine if it were done a little better。 I just wish there was a little more structure to the different sections; it wasn't super clear where one began and another ended or even what really went on within one chapter。 Overall， really disappointing :（ 。。。more

For a big fan of rin this book was amazing！ I loved all of the stories， alot of them made me laugh。 If you're a vocaloid fan I totally recommend， and if you're new to vocaloid or don't know what it is。 Totally fine。 There's a terms page at the front of the first book so you understand them， for example Rin-hai and hall of legend ect。 So overall 5 stars in my opinion For a big fan of rin this book was amazing！ I loved all of the stories， alot of them made me laugh。 If you're a vocaloid fan I totally recommend， and if you're new to vocaloid or don't know what it is。 Totally fine。 There's a terms page at the front of the first book so you understand them， for example Rin-hai and hall of legend ect。 So overall 5 stars in my opinion 。。。more

Cute little slice-of-life/comedy manga。 Wasn't super impressed， so I probably won't pick up the second volume。 If you love Rin， you'll probably love this manga。 If you're just lukewarm on her， pass。 Cute little slice-of-life/comedy manga。 Wasn't super impressed， so I probably won't pick up the second volume。 If you love Rin， you'll probably love this manga。 If you're just lukewarm on her， pass。 。。。more

This may be Hatsune Miku: Rin-chan Now！， but here was me throughout the manga:Miku now！ Luka now！！ Kaito Meiko Len-kyun now！！！Now， some of you might not get that reference。 Surprisingly， compared to the other Vocaloid manga， those of you who did not get the above joke do not have to go looking for something else to read。That’s good if you’re not a huge Vocaloid fan or want to see Rin in a more down-to-earth， slice-of-life setting。 However， if you want to see crazy adventures of a cyber idol and This may be Hatsune Miku: Rin-chan Now！， but here was me throughout the manga:Miku now！ Luka now！！ Kaito Meiko Len-kyun now！！！Now， some of you might not get that reference。 Surprisingly， compared to the other Vocaloid manga， those of you who did not get the above joke do not have to go looking for something else to read。That’s good if you’re not a huge Vocaloid fan or want to see Rin in a more down-to-earth， slice-of-life setting。 However， if you want to see crazy adventures of a cyber idol and her friends （maybe in alternate universes） then you’re going to be disappointed。I’ll give you one guess which group I fell into。If you really don’t understand the title， “Rin-chan Now！” is the name of a song by Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka。 The two talk about all the things they want to do to dote on and/or embarrass Rin。 sezu wrote the lyrics while Owatap composed the melody。 Tamura， as he explains in the final pages， drew the illustrations for the original PV。Most of Rin-chan Now！ is made up of short comics （ranging from one page to about five） where Rin spends her days with her producer/manager。 （I’m not sure if he is supposed to be a fictional version of Tamura or sezu。） At the end of each chapter， the producer adds a final comment， sometimes touching， sometimes funny。 A lot of the things the two do are directly inspired by the original song， like switching Rin’s hairpiece。 Others are strange adventures like where Rin is criminally （cRINinally？） prosecuted for being too cute。 Rin is still a machine in these adventures， and it’s made clear that Rins are mass produced for anyone to buy。The last third or so is where the rest of the gang starts appearing。 This is where Rin-chan Now！ becomes more of an all-out comedy rather than a slice-of-life manga。 Rin busts out her infamous road roller and drives it down the highways of Japan like it’s perfectly normal。 It’s this kind of story that I wanted out of Rin-chan Now！ instead of a glorified self-insert fanfic。 At the same time， though， Rin and her manager are so cute together that it’s hard to be too harsh。 Poor Rin is moved to tears at the thought of being replaced with another Rin， and the manager always treats her well。On the bright side， the art is probably the best I’ve seen in a Vocaloid manga。 While Unofficial Hatsune Mix had some gorgeous color inserts， the actual manga often had off-model shots。 While some of Rin-chan Now！ is drawn by sezu， Tamura’s Rin actually looks like Rin — and all the time！ Meanwhile， while we do see the manager’s head， his face is never seen。 I guess this keeps the self-insertion-ness of the manga。 Plus the manga doesn’t have the translation issues of Unofficial Hatsune Mix。All in all， I enjoyed Hatsune Miku: Rin-chan Now！， but I don’t know who this manga is targeting。 There aren’t a lot of Vocaloid in-jokes， but it’s also not a full-blown slice-of-life and sci-fi blend。 Only the last third or so is real comedy， so I’m curious as to whether future volumes will follow this same format。 That will probably help determine whether this series is more for a general audience or Vocaloid fans。- Krystallina 。。。more
