Vocaloid Tales: The Summer and Winter Garden
11 parts Complete Set in a fantasy world inspired by Renaissance Europe, Miku Hatsune is the only daughter of a merchant. Growing up in a small village, she's always been scared of tales of the "Demon Prince" whose wickedness towards a fairy placed him under a powerful curse and he now preys upon innocent girls. Little does she know the Demon Prince is Prince Kaito of Shion, who has spent the decades since being cursed in near total isolation, with only the ghostly spirit of his faithful knight Gakupo and his enchanted garden to break up the tedium. When fate leads to Miku being forced to spend the winter in his castle, he thinks he may be close to earning his freedom. But can the superficial Miku ever come to love a beast? And more importantly, can Kaito overcome his own fear of rejection to accept it?
The Vocaloids take on roles in an adaptation of the many folktales that have come together to form "Beauty and the Beast." The tale is as old as time, but love is never simple - especially with Vocaloids!
Now complete!
