The 'Hatsune Miku Created Minecraft' meme is a social media phenomenon that jokingly credits the popular Japanese Vocaloid mascot with the creation of the hit sandbox game. This trend emerged as a way for fans to continue enjoying Minecraft while distancing the work from its original creator following a series of controversial public statements. The joke gained significant traction on Twitter around 2019 and eventually expanded to other franchises, embodying a playful 'death of the author' approach. By attributing the game's development to Miku, the community uses humor to navigate complex feelings about art and its creators, turning the blue-haired idol into a universal figure of digital creativity.
