Blade VRM Model: 4 Versions with a 5x Triangle Spread

Blade's versions spread far wider than expected. Madoka-Senpai's build is 27,385 triangles at 7.1 MB; Niko's high-spec build reaches 136,991 triangles with 63 material slots and a 14.8 MB file — one of the heaviest models on this site. The licenses split too: Madoka-Senpai and Jolina Grayer allow modification, Niko's two builds forbid everything.

Is Blade a good desktop pet?

Niko's high-spec build is 136,991 triangles, five times the Madoka-Senpai build, with material slots jumping from 6 to 63. That is display-grade modelling.

Madoka-Senpai is 27,385 triangles, 6 material slots and 7.1 MB, which is easy to leave running; Jolina Grayer sits at 71,580 triangles and 10.0 MB.

Verdict: Madoka-Senpai for a resident character; go to Niko's high-spec build only for recording or display.

What it looks like on your desktop

Blade's palette is dark — black, red and white — so he coordinates well on dark wallpapers and contrasts hardest on light ones.

The four builds differ mainly in outfit and detail density. At desktop-pet size the visible difference is the layering in his hair and coat.

SettingRecommendation
Wallpaper matchDark wallpapers match best; on light ones his dark palette looks harsh
Suggested scaleMadoka-Senpai scales normally; keep the 136,991-triangle build scaled down
Default placementRight side or a corner; he carries enough weight to anchor the screen
Running several at onceMultiple characters only with Madoka-Senpai; do not run Niko's high-spec build alongside others

Four builds, one name, completely different models

Blade is the clearest case of "same name, not the same thing": all four are called Blade, yet triangles run from 27,385 to 136,991 and material slots from 6 to 63. This is not just a fidelity gap, it is a difference in approach — Madoka-Senpai and Niko built lightweight adaptations, while Jolina Grayer modelled from scratch in VRoid Studio. A practical rule when choosing: any build with more than 20 material slots gains almost nothing visible at desktop-pet size but costs real performance. The official PMX is on AplayBox and needs converting.

FAQ

How many Blade VRM versions can I download?

Four, as verified here: Madoka-Senpai (1,751 downloads), Jolina Grayer (250), and two from Niko (68 and 40 downloads).

Can Blade models be used commercially?

Madoka-Senpai and Jolina Grayer allow personal commercial use (including profit) and corporate commercial use. Both Niko builds forbid all commercial use.

Which version is lightest to run?

Madoka-Senpai (27,385 triangles, 6 material slots, 7.1 MB) and Niko's lighter build (27,419 triangles, 4.7 MB). The heaviest is Niko's 136,991-triangle version.

Can I modify a Blade model?

Madoka-Senpai and Jolina Grayer allow it; both Niko builds forbid it. Only Jolina Grayer explicitly allows redistribution.

Can I actually run the 136,991-triangle version?

Yes, but it is performance-heavy and forbids all four license categories. Best used alone, not alongside other characters.

Can I download Blade in mainland China?

AplayBox hosts the official Blade PMX and it is reachable from mainland China. It needs converting to VRM first.

Why do the four versions differ so much?

Because they come from different approaches: Madoka-Senpai and Niko built lightweight character adaptations, while Jolina Grayer modelled in VRoid Studio with a very different fidelity target.
