MikuRin

RinKu is the femslash ship between Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin from the Vocaloid and Project SEKAI fandoms.

Canon
Miku and Rin are two characters from a voice synthesizer software called Vocaloid that is used to create synthesized voices. Neither Miku nor Rin have any backstory or really any character development, as they are only Vocaloids, other then how people portray them in songs. In most songs made by users, they are shown as close friends, some even making them lovers.

Project DIVA series
In the some duets of SEGA Project DIVA series, Rin seems to be flustered to forward Miku and even blushes at her in multiple scenes. The two have cute scenes like holding hands and hugging. Miku checks on Rin while she is practicing the guitar. Miku and Rin also duet in some scenes. There is also a picture of them holding hands with love hearts around them drawn on a blackboard, and one point as they are going shopping together, Miku turns to look at Rin and asks "This is a date, right?"

Miku x Rin songs
The song "Reverse Rainbow" shows Miku kissing Rin on the cheek. "Doki Doki Yuri Gakuen" shows both having romantic feelings for each other. The song "Alluring Secret Black Vow" talks about how the two wish to be together but can't be, since Miku is a human and Rin is an angel. There is a sequel song to this called "Alluring Secret White Vow" telling the story from Miku's point of view. In "Cold Back", Rin is depicted falling in love with Miku. "1LDK" shows Miku and Rin kissing and sleeping in the same bed. "Waltz of the Witch" is about Rin and Miku as nuns, the two falling in love, but their love is forbidden. In the song "Knife", Miku and Rin fall in love and their relationship begins to make Len jealous. In the song "GimmiexGimmie", it is heavily implied that Rin wants to have a romantic relationship with Miku, although Miku denies this advance. Fans theorize this is either because Miku is with someone else but wants to be with Rin or has a father who will not let her be romantic with Rin. There are many other songs featuring them in a romantic way. Here is a playlist compiling some of these songs: RinKu Playlist

Fanon
MikuRin is one of the very first femslash ships in the franchise, as both characters are among the earliest and most famous female characters. Its also one of the most popular ships in the Vocaloid fandom, along with one of the most popular Vocaloid femslash ships. Some of the shippers who are a part of the LGBTQ+ community headcanon Miku being a lesbian and Rin being bisexual, or the other way around. It is rivaled by other Miku/Rin ships, such as KaiMiku (KAITO x Miku), LuMiku (Miku x Megurine Luka), Gumimiku (GUMI x Miku), Lenku (Len x Miku), RinLen (Rin x Len) and KaiRin (KAITO x Rin).

On AO3, it is the second most written ship for both Miku and Rin, after RinLen and Negitoro, but the popularity distance keeps getting smaller and smaller, and it has currently +150 fictions there. The ship is pretty more popular in the western famdom than in Japan.
