1838 lithograph by Paul Gavarni, showing a woman in men's clothing at what is likely a costume ball or carnaval scene (there is a mask underneath the bench). The title of the piece is Mais puisque je vous dis que j'ai un mari. . . (But since I have told you that I have a husband...)

"Another Vocaloid-to-CeVIO design that I think is fine if you look at it in isolation but is a huge downgrade when compared to the character's previous designs. They removed the character's two most iconic features (her rabbit motif and her hairstyle) and replaced it with a pretty but also extremely generic look" "Her dress is pretty but her expression is kinda giving me "she doesn't want to be at this formal party but she has to be there" vibes"

Do you like this character design?
