Thing is, as I explained to Akiglancy, all this was a "bad milkshake" of several previous issues. A very complex one.

1) Accent Wars in spanish are serious business. Really, really serious. Like, in EVERY media involving spanish dub or translation, you'll see discussions about it, and to be honest I consider that war really stupid. Sometimes videos at Youtube are named, for example "One Piece - Episode 330 (Español)" <- and most of times this simple title creates a whole drama cuz "Español" never specifies which one, leading to complains from both sides. Basically, Spanish people think the european spanish is the correct one and Latinamerican people thing standard spanish is the proper one. Other things that surround the hate between both sides is the way they translate certain names and titles. Most common examples you'll see is, for example (you can write a full book of examples to), "Joker" is translated in LA as "El Guasón" (lit. The Jester) while in Spain is translated as "El Comodín" (lit. The Wildcard). Goku's kamehameha is named the same in LA, while in Spain is "Onda Vital" (vital wave), etc. etc. Giuseppe, back in Maika's era, constantly defended that Voctro creating eurospanish vocaloids was perfectly fine cuz, hey, they're spanish after all, they have the correct accent <- a statement that lead to some discussions obviously.

2) Akuo has a very, very delicate reputation after he did several questionable stuff back in Maika's times and honestly, I don't want to talk more about it to avoid drama. Let's just say that not many people likes him.

3) Spanish fandom is crap, tbh. One side is full of weeaboos and Mikutards, while the other side is full of hipster, smarty-pants people who shame the first side for their ignorance. Also, we have AlexVox, the known latinamerican VOCALOID Editor cracker, so basically, at this point in the spanish fandom, you cannot be sure of who's using genuine, original voicebanks and who's using the cracked edition. Voctro Labs themselves once stated that MAIKA had great sells, but a very small percentage of the units sold were for Spanish-speaking countries...
