She also mentioned that she had done an interview with Japanese reporters.[2] On the 5th of April 2012, she reported that she finished recording. According to her report she recorded in the 'Japanese way', which led to a fan asking if it would be a Japanese or Chinese voicebank. Shan Xin responded by stating to wait for the announcement.[3]
An animation for her has also been made.[4] On June 5th the first animation was updated, featuring other Japanese (and in the case of SeeU the Korean and Japanese Vocaloid) Vocaloids for the Vocaloid3 engine, Yuezheng Ling also makes an appearance.
