* [[Crack is Cheaper]]: Vocaloids don't go cheap, going about 15,000 to 20,000 yen each (about $200-$250), not including the separate editor that needs to be bought with a Vocaloid3 Vocaloid.

There is also very little ''new design'' Ring fanart to speak of, and most chose to draw her as Ringu Suzunone instead. On Japanese [http://2chradio.com/jidou/dat/news1306669549.html message boards], they too question why the original design could not apply to the revise.

And then we find out the truth: "I remembered everything and burst into tears / Because I remembered... / {{spoiler|that you died fifteen years ago}}."
