@Tortoiseshel The thing with Bruno and Clara was just awful. I thought they didn't look great, but I wasn't about to rage over their designs. I liked their vocals and their art was fitting for the location they were made from. I never understood the disgusting threats and hatred targeted at them.

As for the VIVI thing, it's really just a huge mess. She wasn't announced properly, we have zero clarification as to whether she's real or not and there's a refusal to answer, and it just doesn't make any sense at all whatsoever. They're digging themselves into a deeper and deeper hole because they just can't seem to do it properly.

DEX and DAINA were just fine; they had minimal drama bc they weren't announced until they were official and it was done by the VPs  and the companies.

VIVI's been announced on some obscure Idol-anime-loving Twitter account and the only "proof" of officiality is a screenshot from one guy who asked Anders if she's legit. This, versus the plethora of emails from YAMAHA asking about the validity of VIVI that confirm she's essentially illegal.

The contrast in professionalism between PFX and ZG is apalling, and kind of depressing.

Like I'm ragging on this PurinxPop character for some answers, but it's not bc I don't want a new Wester VOCALOID. It's because I  want a real one and I'm not going to believe it until I get some actual proof that she's being developed. I'm not falling for anything and refuse to back this project until it's legit.

That, on top of the whole "pedo jokes" trash that just seemed to tarnish VIVI in an instant. Poor kid.
