This does not look like Miku. I don't understand why this picture is so popular.

looks like miku to me :/

Go look up World is Mine. This is one of the more widely known Miku pics around. It even gets parodied from time to time. =\

Well, that is the uniqueness of fanart. When it is done in someone else's style, you get some drastic differences from the original design, but you know the intent was for it to be the character.

I think seeing Miku in different attire expands on the character, it is a lot better than seeing them in the same default outfit over and over.
