I remember the V2 days when everyone sad that a Vocaloid needs a Japanese voicebank to be successful... Except now there are so many of that language it doesn't tend to make a luck of difference because the Japanese have better then anything non-native companies can produce. See SeeU and Yohioloid, one hit by politics the other ignoralmaloidigitis (class credits for deciphering what the name was meant to sound like).

The same isn't ness. true for the other way around because English is a horrible language to synth and the failings of a vocal can be what puts it above another. Sadly, I don't see any English vocals coming out of china just yet. The market is still young and needs more Vocaloids. In my opinion based on SeeU, its best a company just sticks to 1 language until they have a catalog and can dare to try the language leap. While there are ore advantages to it over extra voicebanks, one is easier to produce then the other, depending on what. Either way you need strong user base before you can consider the leap, in case its a failure. The gamble doesn't always pay off. :-/
