Its kinda like at the moment how everyone and their mother is asking for a male vocal here in the overseas just because of how many females there are in the Japanese lot. While English and Spanish are more even at the moment, this shouldn't be such an issue to over seas fans that Vocaloids aimed at a Japanese market are more abundant. Though overseas are more likely to buy the songs, they are not more likely to buy the Vocaloid software. I said recently in a rant about the Internet Noboru interview how annoying it was that he got asked for a male.

We've been discussing for 3 years the issues with the Japanese Vocaloids and it should be no surprise, but in all of this... The overseas fandom still doesn't "get it" that Japanese Vocaloids are not for them.
