Here we have a gallery of Hatsune Miku images of extreme quality; with images gathered by both the Vippers and myself, the candidate images came to some three hundred. Since this is unwieldy, I went through and further selected what in my opinion form the top hundred, which are posted below.
The rest, which are by no means bad, I have posted together with these images to Sankaku Channel: this link will display the appropriate tag. You may browse the quality digest below, or take advantage of the much richer experience offered on the Channel, and evaluate them yourself.

We’ve seen some rather accomplished MikuMiku Dance MADs, but never one executed with such realism and charm as this, I think. Hatsune Miku dances rather more enticingly than the mere human whose moves she emulates; song is Bararaika, and the idol dancing is a Morning Musume.

As we saw earlier with the prominent featuring of Kagamiku, cosplay is looking to be central to the Lucky Star OVA. Now the official site reveals these development sketches, illustrating a likely focus on netgaming as well.

With the recent intensification in Nendoroid releases, it seems a look what the latest crop offers might be in order. Some rather nice puchi renditions are on display, so without further adieu…

Some nice visual work on this MAD utilising Hatsune Miku, and some refreshing use of non-J-pop music; it’s no surprise it has become popular. This is Liberate~赤い海の夜明け~ / Liberate – Daybreak Over the Crimson Sea.

If this cover art for the upcoming and highly anticipated Lucky Star OVA is anything to go by, then something resembling the earlier Hatsune Konata madness may be set to feature in the OVA itself, officially.
