So it doesn't matter about vocals like Big Al, Iroha, etc, because Miku will instantly bring up this idea of "Vocaloid = chipmonk". Because if there is one thing I've learnt about anti-Vocaloid fans, is they don't do any research at all, so just react to the first thing they see, which normally is Miku.

Yes, I've noticed that, too. I've seen comments on Vocaloid videos where people state that they hate Vocaloids because they sound like robotic chipmunks, even though there is a wide range of Vocaloids with lower pitches. Some Vocaloids do sound robotic, but what do you expect? It's a synthesizer program.

Having shown someone Big Al before the reaction can be hilarious.

ITs from one extreme to the other.
