^I think its going to take quite a few more years for this to change. I don't see a sudden flood of males happening for a number of years, not like we have now. :-/

It hasn't just got to do with the over surge of females, but also the Japanese culture itself. I'll give an example of One Piece... Out of all the characters, outside of Luffy, the 3 most likely character to get figurines are Chopper (whose the series "mascot"), Nami and Robin, those two being the only female characters on Luffy's crew. Zoro, Sanji, Franky, Brook, Ussop... Get less overall merchandise then those 4.

Its a issue about the "Otaku" culture of Japan, males go nuts over female characters. Often, they are more likely to buy figurines of the 1 female member of a maincast then any of her male counterparts. I see more males, yes, the trend changing, yes, but not the complete abandonment of the female dominance within Vocaloid. I see them always going to dominate the franchise. :-/
