== Plot ==
Miku Hatsune (Lacey Chabert) is often shunned by most of the people in the village where she lives despite some of the people in the village defending her as they consider her mess-ups to be accidents. One day, she tries to take on a new role of mail delivery girl whilst singing That's All I Need, but this results in the majority of the people running after her to try and teach her a lesson. She manages to escape unscathed, however, and her friend Lisa Fujita (Amy Landecker) encourages her to follow her dream of becoming a pop superstar.
Following this revelation, Miku leaves the village to follow her heart and eventually comes across an area where a camping trip has just ended. She goes to help get the camping things packed and runs into Len Kagamine (Ali Larter), a teenage boy who has been having trouble getting everything packed away. After getting the stuff into the car he uses, the two set off into the big city where he lives. He takes her into the mansion where he resides but does not live alone and takes a shine to her.
After one night in the mansion, Miku is awoken by some loud music coming from one of the rooms and it turns out to be Kaito (Nicholas D'Agosto), one of Len's housemates, singing Gonna Keep It Rockin'. Upon noticing her, Kaito throws a welcome party for her where she is warmly welcomed by the rest of Len's housemates including Rin (Monica Rial), Len's sister. She begins to spend every day with her new friends including Gakupo Kaumi (Adam Scott) and singing songs along with them and ends up taking Lisa's advice and forgetting about the shunning she used to go through.
Her absence from the village does not go unnoticed, however, as her father Alex's (Danny McBride) American-accented Italian friends Mario (Josh Gad) and Luigi (Ryan Reynolds) discover that she has not delivered anything to their house since she left the village and let him know. Knowing that a dangerous gang living in the village is responsible for the majority of the people in the village shunning her and are now hunting her down to kidnap her and bring her back, the three set out to find her not wanting her to be put in danger.
Miku eventually discovers from Sonic The Hedgehog (Roger Craig Smith), one of her housemates, that the rest of her friends are Vocaloids and he explains that an evil wizard named Shimoda (Seth Rogen) is the cause of the gang behind the majority of the village's people bullying her via an evil curse that he placed on the village as part of an evil plan to try and take over the city, which resulted in the Vocaloids' old master being killed. Sonic has been the Vocaloids' master ever since those events, hoping to destroy Shimoda.
When Shimoda arrives in the city, bent on taking it over, chaos ensues, and Miku and her friends prepare to take a stand and are joined by Alex, Mario, Luigi and Lisa, all of whom came to the city to ensure Miku's safety. The group sets up a trap while Miku and Len stall for time, which eventually results in Shimoda being trapped while Miku, Kaito, Len, Rin and Gakupo sing a song together, destroying him and ending the curse on the village.
Before leaving the city, Alex, knowing that Miku has become a Vocaloid as a result of the battle, decides for her to stay with her friends with Mario, Luigi and Lisa taking care of them. After he leaves, the group then sings a song as a means to celebrate their victory.
