I believe they are the anthromorphized forms of a popular singing software. Basically anime girls based on songs who are attributed personalities by a burgeoning fan-base, despite the difficulties of using the actual software.

Hatsune Miku is the reigning queen of the Vocaloids, the long-haired, dark-aqua colored one with twin 'tails. Also synonymous with leeks for some reason, much like the infamous Loituma Girl meme, starring Inoue Orihime of Bleach fame.

Fans of this particular 'franchise' have considerable power, there having been cases (or was that one case?) of fan-made Vocaloids being adopted as official by the original company. There also exists differing interpretations of the avatar's personalities there being some fan-on-fan inter-'community' 'violence.' This is understandable, as the Vocaloid's entire personal and emotional make-up are surmised by fans from the songs they sing, thus being heavily dependent on personal interpretation.

Don't know anything about it really.

So it has to be about hatsune miku or inoue orhime?

Inoue Orihime is not a vocaloid. Just mentioned it because part of the reason they became so popular was one of the original famous videos was of Hatsune Miku spinning a leek, a parody of a parody, mimicking the meme with Inoue.

There's more Vocaloids than just Miku, you can look online and choose one.
