Well, sure, it makes sense for them, since they're virtual characters as virtual characters. In the course of my little odyssey over the last few days, though, I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion...

Excuse me. Ahem. Anyway, yeah. I think the best example that didn't involve a character just wearing the wrong costume (which was, in the way of the Internet, basically no costume), was a version of Suzuya who was wearing her normal outfit, only every single part of it was smooth, stiff, and highly reflective, like she was cosplaying as a Suzuya action figure.

OTOH, there is a very adorable Yamato model out there whose clothes have actual fabric weave texture on them. ... I probably pay more attention to that kind of thing than I really should. And I probably shouldn't be admitting it on the Web. Oh well!

As an aside, I'm very amused by the (relatively few) English comments one sees on these videos. You have the people who don't recognize the characters; the people who do recognize them, but don't know what MikuMukuDance is... and, in one really impressive instance, someone who clearly was familiar with both KanColle and Vocaloid, but couldn't... quite... put it together. That person asked, "Why does Yamato's singing voice sound like Megurine Luka?" So close. So close to understanding. (Or maybe it was a joke. It's hard to tell on the Internet. :)
