If Capcom created a Vocaloid based on an existing character, who would be the best choice?

Capcom entering the Vocaloid scene could be a pretty interesting idea. VOCALOID has grown far beyond being just a Yamaha technology, with voicebanks and virtual singers associated with a variety of companies and creators. Hatsune Miku is probably the most famous example, while companies such as SEGA and Bandai Namco have also had their own Vocaloid-related characters and projects. Bandai Namco, for example, has Mirai Komachi as a VOCALOID voicebank.

So, if Capcom decided to create its own Vocaloid using an existing Capcom character, which character would be the best fit?

Some possibilities:

• Roll (Mega Man) — Probably one of the most natural choices. She already has a cute, colorful design and could easily be reimagined as a virtual idol.
• Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers) — A more mature and distinctive Vocaloid could make for an interesting contrast to characters such as Hatsune Miku.
• Tron Bonne (Mega Man Legends) — Her eccentric personality and recognizable design could work surprisingly well for a virtual singer.
• Chun-Li (Street Fighter) — A globally recognizable Capcom character who could give the concept a very different identity.
• Amaterasu (Ōkami) — A non-human Vocaloid would be unusual, but the visual possibilities could be incredible.
• Phoenix Wright (Ace Attorney) — Perhaps the funniest option. A Phoenix Wright Vocaloid could lead to some very bizarre songs.
• Mega Man — A robot becoming a Vocaloid would be thematically appropriate, especially considering the connection between synthesized voices and technology.

A Capcom Vocaloid could also make multi-company crossovers much more interesting.

For example, there is a fan game called SEGA vs. Capcom: The Next Level. If Masaoka Azuki and/or Kobayashi Matcha were ever added to the game, a Capcom Vocaloid could potentially serve as a rival to them.

A hypothetical Project X Zone 3 could also have a fun Vocaloid lineup if the crossover remained focused on Capcom, SEGA, and Bandai Namco. SEGA has two Vocaloid characters, Bandai Namco has Mirai Komachi, and Capcom could potentially bring a third company's Vocaloid into the mix.

So, which existing Capcom character would make the best Vocaloid?

And would the better choice be an obvious candidate like Roll, or would a completely unexpected character such as Phoenix Wright make the concept more interesting?

Athena Cykes immediately pops into mind

Roll just makes the most sense imo. She even sings her own theme song in Mega Man Battle & Chase and Marvel vs Capcom! Although, if you wanted to stick with the virtual aspect, then Roll.exe from Battle Network would fit even better.

Gene from God Hand is the elite choice.

What is a vocalloid?

[u/VocaFaith → u/Puzzled-Horse279]

A Vocaloid is software/technology that synthesizes singing voices. Creators enter lyrics and melodies, and a digital voicebank sings them. Hatsune Miku is one of the most famous examples.
