Appearance ĭuring the development of XIA YU YAO's UTAU voicebanks, it was noted that the design was meant to be based on the voice. In Japanese, her kana spelling is "シャ・ユーヤオ". Her logo and references to her Synthesizer V voice database used "YAO" or "YAO AI". Her full name was usually stylized as "XIA YU YAO" or "Xia Yu Yao", however, "Xia Yuyao" is another official way to write her name. Thus, her name could be read as "to spread the passionate, summer-like voice further". "Xia" was chosen with hopes that the sound can be as energetic as summer while "Yu Yao" was chosen with hopes that the sound would be widespread. Combined, it refers to her carrying her voice from a very far distance closer to people's ears.Īccording to an article written on November 8, 2014, XIA YU YAO's name was specially chosen so that it could be written the same for Chinese and Japanese. Her given name is formed by two characters: " Yu" ( 語 Yǔ), which means "to speak", "words", or "language", and " Yao" ( 遙 Yáo), which means "distant" and "far away". ![]() Her surname, " Xia" ( 夏 Xià), means "summer". Her age was changed to 18 on June 22, 2016. When YU YAO was first introduced, she was noted to be 17 years old. After passing her ability test, her instructor asked her to leave and explore the world to train herself, broaden her horizons, and find other people with special abilities, hence the start of her own series of adventures. According to later lore when UTAUs OSCAR and JOAN were released in August 2016, it was noted that YU YAO's singing can attract people with special abilities similar to her own. She was noted to have a "WIND" attribute, meaning that once the magic was integrated into her voice, it would cleanse people's hearts and make bad emotions drift away into the wind, comforting sad people and bringing them hope. She enjoys taking care of others and making them feel warm. According to her character page, XIA YU YAO is a gentle, caring, and empathetic person who has confidence in her own voice.
