Talk:Kagamine Rin \ Len/@comment-71.198.51.21-20120927081244

In my honest opinion, the Kagamines are the most overrated. And Crypton is exploiting their voices far too much. I can let Miku slide under them because she brought popularity to the franchise, but the Kagamines just seem like pedo-fangirl bait. Don't get me wrong, I love their songs, but their voices are annoying as hell. Len is essentially the Japanese-underage version of JB. I mean, what's so different? They both have rabid fangirls and girly voices, the only things different are that Len's lyrics are superior and they both sing in different languages. I also can't stand his stupid lisp that Len gets everytime he's trying to force out a strong note or scream now and then. Rin is a little easier to listen to, but her voice is just too loud sometimes, till it stings in my head. What I think their popularity boils down that people these days only listen to people with "cutesy" looks or voices. A lot of Len fans obsess over his "shota" qualities, and then they try to sexualize his character. That's disgusting. A lot Rin fans are like this to a lesser extent, but they always cite how much better the Kagamines are compared to all the other vocaloids. I always found the stronger, deeper voices more attractive, but I always hear the lighter, more obnoxious voices instead. It would be nice if Kaito, Luka, or Gakupo, etc. got some more attention, but I know it's out of the question since Crypton and company will always put their "Money Makers" first over actual quality or variety. But hey that's my opinion, fuss over if you want, but it won't change how I feel about them.
