Talk:66 (Roro)/@comment-31499688-20170816223333

i personally adore the roro design as the "mascot" of vy2, but i can understand all of the backlash. i don't really assume the fandom is LAZY, per se, but rather that many people just don't understand that they are supposed to "create their own" design for how they'd like it to be percieved. i think there's comfort in having an offcial mascot sometimes, even if it limits things. i see a lot of people here saying they don't like roro as vy2, but eh, i do. (again, i also know it's apparently against the artist's wishes for others to keep using roro to represent it, but i don't ccaaarrreeee lmao) my point is that it's popular because people have accepted it, and i'm sure many of them think roro IS the official design. in my opinion, i tend to associate roro with vy2. the depictions, and such, i'm just used to his design being used for it. (though i also like the "black haired" design used for it too) i can't help it lol.

basically what i'm saying here is that i don't understand why so many people hate roro being used to represent vy2, simply because it's popular. like i said, i know the artist themself doesn't want it being used, but perhaps people just percieve it to look like him, just like them. (with the vy series intended to be a "blank slate") this is, to me, what i think people see it as. (i can't lie that the popularity of roro has influenced that) there's nothing wrong with making a new design, or (to me) using roro. that's alllll

i hope anything i said here makes sense hnnnnf vy2 is my favorite vocaloid, and i just really like the roro design. i don't see any issue with people using him to represent it, since those who don't want to, have the freedom to design their own concept instead. byee
