At the time, when the SNOW MIKU 2010 event was held and goods were sold in Sapporo, the event was so successful that long lines of ardent fans formed, and the event became a hot topic on SNS.<\/p>\n

This unexpected response has helped Snow Miku grow from a mere figurine to a character that supports Hokkaido. The design of Snow Miku has changed a little every year, and it has become a favorite among fans.<\/p>\n
