Well, after Ia she was the most popular new vocal in Vocaloid3 in Japan. One of the reasons was that she had a niche vocal that nobody else was fitting in. She was made by regular Joe producers pretty much so had a lot of support. She had a number of songs that eventually became successful, bringing attention to her vocal further.

While she has nods between her and Miku's design clearly in it, its not worth mentioning (as I said in the past, the complaint amounts to disliking a vocaloid for looking like a vocaloid). And honestly? There are several vocaloids who took notes from Miku and co, I honestly don't get the stigma behind it... The vocaloids who are too different from what have come before have the most struggle with getting noticed at times. :-/

Furthermore, despite the west's lackluster interest of voiceroid I've noted, its really popular in Japan. One of the most popular uses is for video game playthroughs, wherein the playthrough is done "by the character" and Voiceroids are often used for this purpose to tell their story of playing the game. A number of videos for Minecraft alone, feature Yukari either playing as a character trying to survive in the world, or interacting with other voiceroids and talk synths. So she gets interest from 2 fandoms basically.
