A [[UTAU]] character with [[red hair|red]] [[twin drills]].

[b]Kasane Teto[/b] was created as an April Fools joke by the VIPPERs of 2ch, meant to trick Nico-Nico Douga users into thinking she was the 3rd Vocaloid from [[crypton_future_media|Crypton]]. After the joke was over, instead of fading into obscurity Teto was picked up by [[UTAU]], a freeware knock-off of [[VOCALOID]]. She has maintained a level of popularity, and many have tried to replicate this effect with other joke and fanmade characters since.

After her 15th anniversary on April 2023, she received an [[kasane_teto_(sv)|updated voicebank]] under the [[Synthesizer V]] engine.

She is a young girl with [[red eyes]] and [[red hair|red]] [[twin drills]]. She typically wears a dark blue/gray outfit with red trim. Her official profile lists her as a "chimera", so she is sometimes given characteristics like a forked tail or wings. Her character item is a loaf of french bread. 

Her voice provider is [[Oyamano Mayo]].

Oyamano initially used the name Oyama Nobuyo as a reference to famed singer and voice actress [[Ooyama Nobuyo]]. Since the latter is most known as the voice of [[Doraemon (character)|]], fans had Teto share similar traits. Teto's [[catchphrase]] [b]君は実に馬鹿だな[/b] "You really are an idiot, aren't you?" also originated from a [[Doraemon]] comic.

Do not tag Kasane Teto as a [[VOCALOID]]. She is an UTAU.
