亞北ネロ
亞北ネロ (Akita Nero) is a [[Vocaloid]] derivative designed by [[Smith Hioka]] as [[Akita Neru]]'s younger brother.
He is a 13 years old boy with [[blonde hair]] and an [[ahoge]].

When [[Hatsune Miku]]'s pictures became unsearchable on main search engines such as Google and Yahoo! Japan in 2007, an apocryphal rumor spread among [[2channel]]  users:
"The system engineers at Yahoo! Japan had not enough time to work out the bugs in their image recognition algorithms. They decided to check all unsearchable images [b]one by one manually[/b], to change all Miku's pictures to ’searchable’."
Nero was created as one of these poor, overworked part-time engineers in Yahoo!.
