*puts up firewall*Don't flame me for this but could everyone just shut up about Rin and Len being mirror reflections or twins and just enjoy the damn video?
They aren't twins, they are mirror images of each other. Some songs portray them as siblings but they really aren't. I believe Len means left and Rin means right and Kagamine means mirrored sound.
this video is so cute the girl cosplaying has a cute costume on shes singing let me be with you that song is really hard to remember i dont even know the song yet i have listend to it i like let me be with you
it's just translated in two different ways because in japanese "L" sounds exactly like "R", so "Ren" and "Len" would be the same person. It's just depends on the person translating. in japanese "R" sounds exactly like "L" in english but translated in romaji as "R". so the translation would be a conflict of "translation" vs. "pronunciation"
Actually, I don't think the Japanese pronounce it EXACTLY like "L". It's more of the two COMBINED, so you'd actually being saying something like "RLen", but the "L" is less dominate.
Also: Le= LEft. Ri= RIght. There names are a play on "left" and "right", therefore, for his name, it would be "Len", that's how I see it.
As for being twins, no it is not STATED that they are, but it seems to be kind of inferred, that is if, they were humans. Since they aren't human, you an infer this however.
its easier for people to understand that len and rin are twins...i like the mirror-story....when rin stands in front of a mirror and suddenly her reflection cames out of the mirror and - its a boy!
They're not twins. I swear to Kira. They just look alike because the word kage or kagem (whatever =P) Meand mirror. They are mirror images of each other. People just assume they are twins but there not. I do still call them twins sometimes though. ^^ I hope that explains it. So the last name thing. They were created together as mirror images. Hence they have the same last name and as you said the R in Rin and L in Len maked there names sound alike. And...Yeah. They're not related.
I do think of them as twins. So many of the songs I love ( Alice Human Sacrafice + Daughter of evil series etc.) include them as twins. I'm not saying it's wrong to think they are I'm just saying there really not.
Wait, Then why did the creator of Rin and Len Kagamine said there related?? The Kagamine Twins They even have that song called " The Kagamine Twin Rap"
There not really twins the creators did NOT say they were twins. The fan's assumed they were but they are not. That song is made by a fan who thought they were twins. It was not made by the creator.
Released on December 27, 2007, Rin & Len Kagamine (鏡音リン・レン, Kagamine Rin/Len) is the second installment of the Vocaloid Character Vocal Series, twin boy (Len) and girl (Rin). Their family name was chosen by combining Kagami (鏡, Mirror?), Ne (音, Sound?), with the first syllables of their given names, puns on "Left" and "Right".
Released on December 27, 2007, Kagamine Rin/Len (鏡音リン・レン ?) is the second installment of the Vocaloid2 Character Vocal Series. Their surname was chosen by combining Kagami (鏡 ,Mirror?), Ne (音 ,Sound?), with the first syllables of their given names a pun on "Left" and "Right". ACTUAL text from Wikipedia.
@wingdrabbit2005 I'll clear the confusion. Yes they are twins, and no they are not related. There's a play with the names, Len for left and Rin for right while they're last name translates to Mirror Noise I believe, I'm probably wrong with that. But with the play with the names, they are Mirror images.
@0Malaya0 Officially they are mirror images, but some see them as a couple and others see them as twins. (I personally believe in twins they are not in any songs as mirror images that I know of, they have the same last name and they are not old enough to get married unless they lived in the middle ages.)
@wingdrabbit2005 techinically, they're not even twins. just reflections of a mirror. Rin for Right and Len for Left. but in some videos they're made twins
@wingdrabbit2005 Actually, they're the same person. "Kagamine" means "mirror voice." They're made from the same vocalist, only different halves of that voice. Rin obviously got the higher pitches and a more girlish tone, and Ren (Len) got the lower pitches and a more boyish tone. People just portray them as being twins in fandoms.
@wingdrabbit2005 The fans prefer them as twins but others say they are mirrior images of eachother. whcih makes alot of sense about the names (left and right len and rin) and the looks. So really both are right and wrong it's whatever the fans prefer. not officail...
Then you're being quite silly. Ren is gramatically correct following the Japanese language. Just like Love would be Ravu(Love is really Ai, but they use Ravu as well for Katakana.).

Megsaku 3 years ago 3
Well hey, if you wanna get really technical about things, they're not even human, and can't possibly be blood-related.
It's really a personal opinion how they're viewed. Their last names do mean Mirror (Kagami) and Sound (Ne), but that doesn't really prove anything.
Personally, I like to think they're twins. They're so cute. C:
But on a relevant note, very good cosplay. :D
