Talk:Crypton Future Media, Inc./@comment-82.144.171.240-20150208214027

I think the article should carry some criticism of Crypton F. M. as well, to be balanced. For example:

Many say C.F.M. are the greatest marketing geniuses ever in the electronic music market. Yet, how could they produce a "femme fatale" type Vocaloid named Meg urine Luka? It's not just urine is embarrassing, but Luka is a definitely male name in 90+ % of the world's languages (variants Luka, Luke, Lucas, Luca, Loukas, Lukacs) and a very well-known one at that, being one of the four evangelists in the gospel. Lucia is the female equivalent and "Santa Lucia" is a well-known song, even in Japan. This, it's hard to explain to newbyes M. Luka is a not a computer-generated tranny.

(Note: as a hungarian I understand CFM's decision, since Luca is a girl's name in our language, too. I also know the average japanese person has a superficial understanding or care of the world outside, their island having its own rich culture and being isolated. Yet CFM Inc. is supposed to be a marketing pro, they should not have been this ignorant of the whole globe?)

Furthermore, CV03 was not their first try, the also messed up on the CV02 pair! The boy imprint is named Kagamine Len, even though Len-Lena is a definitely female given name in most languages. (There is actually an old Playboy centrefold named Len, whose photo has become a quasi-standard in color adjustment tests for the computerized processing of digital imagery.)

The success of "CV01 Hatsune Miku" owes a lot to the fact, that CFM uniqely didn't mess up her naming. Thus, their bumblings should not be left out of the article.
