History
Originally Lily appeared on the cover of the CD "anim.o.v.e. 01" released on Aug 19, 2009 before the announcement of its Vocaloid development. Lily was introduced as "Code Name: Lily" on DTM MAGAZINE published in May, 2010.The voice source is the lead vocalist of m.o.v.e., Yuri Masuda. The idea of the developing a vocaloid based on Yuri's voice was occurred, as one of the member was a user of vocaloid. Two official demos, "SUPER SONIC DANCE Lily Ver. With G" and "Gamble Rumble Lily Ver With G" have been released and also Gakupo Kamui is used in them. "SUPER SONIC DANCE" is one of the songs released by m.o.v.e.[6][7]Her trial version was given out free online before her release, but is no longer available. Her contests are closed and songs are now being released onto Youtube and Nico Nico Douga using the 30 day trial. Also, "anim.o.v.e. 02", m.o.v.e album which comes along with her anime movie, was released On Aug 25, 2010. Prizes for her contest were Lily-related promotional goods, also a copy of Internet Co. Ltd.'s Singer Song Writer 9 Professional software. Judges included DJ Lily and MOSH from anim.o.v.e, Masashi Kamibayashi and Kenichiro Yorozu of DTM MAGAZINE, and Hideki Kenmochi of YAMAHA.
She saw heavy promotion with many merchandise released both prior and after her software was released. Lily recieved a figure released in November, 2010 becoming the first non-Crypton Vocaloid to recieve a figurine. A digicomic movie(anime MV) titled "Schwarzgazer", which shows the world where Lily is, has been produced and it will be released with the album "anim.o.v.e 02". The song was sung by m.o.v.e., not by Vocaloids. Its short version has been officially uploaded on Nicovideo and Youtube. (Nico broadcast, Youtube broadcast) This short movie is unique in approach, as it provides an official English language version side by side with the Japanese version, hinting acknowledgment of the existence of overseas fans by the company. It depicts Lily and companion "Mosh" as fighters against a virus, equipped with music as their weapon.A manga of the same name, which is written by Kei, was released together.
