@Angel

I only say neutral accent because when people sing, people usually sing a certain way (ex. Adele). The same reason why people question why some Vocaloids have such a noticeable accent (ex. Miriam), because usually people don't sing like they talk.

With Cyva, people are actually trying to guess where she's from based on her accent. You can't do that with Big Al.

Like I know what Big Al is supposed to be, but that still doesn't change the fact that Cyva actually has an accent from an identifiable region in America, which is what I think they were referring to by "true" American accent, and I agree, she's the first successful attempt at getting an American accent in Vocaloid.

Don't worry, I don't think anyone forgot Big Al, but the Americans I know, including myself never considered his accent natural.
