Choosing a song that gets people excited is sensible, and it's a business venture, so it's very important to make decisions that will earn money (you'll need finances to host future concerts). Not to mention that Aki ended up in debt because of the concert prior, so accusations of greediness are very harsh. D: But emotions always run high after a competition ends, so some conflicting opinions are normal. Maple agreed with Tora too, and I was inclined to as well until I thought about it a bit more. It doesn't really make sense especially when you point out that she lost money, which I hadn't realized was the case. She's always seemed like a nice person who does her best so seeing that she struggled with the last concert makes me sad. Do we know how much money she lost?

But continuing off of Tora, I'm guessing they've got some beef with the Vocamerica crew, or some of the staff members. I can see why they think that it's a greed thing, but knowing she lost money on it would make it seem like that's not the case.

That being said, I'm still hopeful in the future that they'll switch it up a little. It'd be nice to have some ballads or alt rock or even jazz (there's that one album by Steampianist, was it called In Verbatim? that would be so cool). Just some songs to break up the pattern a bit. Miku concerts always have some breaks between pop songs, like going from "Remote Control" -> "Hand in Hand" -> "Lost Ones Weeping" -> "Shake It" (Not necessarily in that order, but you see what I'm saying; for every couple pop/edm they throw in another genre to switch it up).

I really hope Vocamerica grows to the point that they can afford to do that, or at least they can test it out a little bit in the future.
