Well, I've actually seen hundreds of comments like this....

Miku's popularity can be attributed to her high-pitched voice, anime-looking design (or whatever she is popular for). The thing is, she was first released in 2007-2008 V2 era, when VOCALOID wasn't THIS overcrowded. It's easier to imagine why she is more popular than other Vocaloids at that time.

This kind of popularity is also a backslash you know, people suddenly hate her for many reasons, both reasonable and unreasonable ones. She is too popular, she is too anime-looking, too robotic-sounding etc.

The number of criticizes she met should balanced out her popularity already.
