You've all likely heard of Mario Day, but today (March 9, 2026) happens to be Miku Day. Instead of celebrating Nintendo's iconic plumber, this day is for celebrating anything and everything to do with everyone's favorite virtual vocaloid, Hatsune Miku.
In Japanese, the numbers 3 and 9 can be read as "mi" and "ku" respectively, which is why fans have chosen today to celebrate the adorable pig-tailed diva. Sadly, there isn't much in the way of new Hatsune Miku-flavoured gaming tech announcements this Miku Day, yet I've decided to use this perfect occasion to harp on about my favorite set of PC gaming accessories, the Asus TUF Hatsune Miku Collection. The set is not only still readily available starting from $24.99 (Amazon), but contains some of the best-looking gaming goodies I've seen.
As a member of the GamesRadar+ hardware team, I'm in a very fortunate position to test and try out a huge range of the best gaming keyboards, mice and headsets. Yet, each time I'm in between samples and vigorously gaming away on my PC, I always default to this collection as a Miku fan. It's not the only set of special edition accessories out there, and not even the only one Asus is involved with, but it is the best one to make full use of the Vocaloid license and set my fandom heart aflutter.
Take the K3 Gen II Hatsune Miku Edition gaming keyboard, for example. No corner of this board is free from Miku iconography, which is exactly what you'd want from an officially licensed bit of tech, especially one priced at $99.99 (Amazon). There are Miku references everywhere, from the famous '01' tattoo marking on the escape key, heat-shaped music notation on the function keys, to Miku herself popping up across the spacebar. As a pièce de résistance, the entire top cover (which can be removed by the way) features that same iconic turquoise shade as her pigtails.
I've been using the keyboard for almost a year, and it's a dream to type with. Each key press feels nice and creamy, and it's integrated with a silicone gasket mount and dampening foam to prevent loud, unwanted clicky noises. I'm pretty heavy-handed with my key presses, yet each key feels just as responsive as it did the first day I took it out of the box. The printing on the keys has remained intact too, which I was worried about when I originally looked at the Hatsune Miku Asus set back in July 2025.
The keyboard remains my current favorite piece, even if I wish it were wireless to avoid having an ugly white wire to deal with. Besides the board, my favorite part of this set is the Hatsune Miku Edition Mini Wireless Mouse, which goes all out to include a glowing silhouette on the palm rest. I prefer the best gaming mice, which are a bit larger for my hands, but the LEDs look stunning when illuminating on any desk surface that I easily become dazzled and forget about its tiny stature every time I use it.
The mouse includes 100% PTFE mouse feet, which alongside its lightweight 65g form factor, make it easily glide across the matching mouse mat. Better yet, it features tri-mode connectivity, so you can switch it up between a wired, Bluetooth, or 2.4Ghz wireless connection, and it has a mega 134-hour battery life. I can typically use it for a month and a half of work and gaming before it needs a charge, which is why it never budges from my desk. That, and it's too cute to swap for anything else.
Talking of cute, the H1 Gen II Hatsune Miku Edition wired headset takes after the mouse with its design choices. The left ear cup is equipped with a glowing LED silhouette of Miku, with the other sporting the TUF Gaming logo. This is a wired pair of cups, so it's not one of the best gaming headsets out there, and it's limited by a wired connection too. Yet, I've continued to use it as my day-to-day work headset as it's cute, comfortable, and the microphone isn't too shabby either.
I do wish that Asus had taken after Miku's own headset when it comes to design, as she's a singer and does actually have a unique pair of her own. Yet, this model still blends well with the rest of the collection, especially as it utilizes that same turquoise, pink, and white color palette. To account for the licensing costs, the headset is far pricier than my usually recommended budget pair, like the Turtle Beach Airlite fit, which is just $27.99 (Amazon), so if you want that Miku look, you have to account for that Miku cost.
If you wanted to save a bit of cash, you'd be best sticking with the P1 Hatsune Miku Edition Portable Gaming Mouse Pad. It's just $24.99 and features a gorgeously printed bit of Miku artwork, which is the same one found on the keyboard's spacebar. It's pretty small, coming at just 10 x 8 inches in size, but if your desk is low on space, it gets the job done.
I actually prefer its size as my desk is typically cluttered with figures and merch of Miku herself, so there's rarely enough space for a full-sized mat. Again, you could find a similarly sized mat for far less than its $25 price, but much like the entire Asus x TUF Gaming Hatsune Miku Collection, it's more about capturing that cute design aesthetic.
However, if you are a Miku fan, I fully believe now, just as I did when I first took a look at this set last July, that there's plenty of value here. You'll just have to be a huge fan of the Vocaloid to fully appreciate this gorgeous set in all its full, spectacular splendor. A splendor that can be appreciated on Miku Day and every day of the year.
