It's nice to have a poll like that! :) The only bad thing is, I can only vote one VB per company lol Anyways, because of that I decided to write the whole thing down here, in case someone is interested in my humble opinion :P Please note that I'm judging mostly by voice, and by that I mean how good their voice can sound when tuned *almost perfectly*, not how easy it is to tune them or how many nicely-tuned songs with them are out there. 'Cause most VBs can sound like injured alleycats when tuned badly lmao Here it goes:

YAMAHA: flower has to take the cake in this one. I'm generally a sucker for powerful voices that can slay rock songs as well as androgynous voices and her design is just new levels of awesomeness. It's kinda hard to get her to be in tune, have emotion and sing in the correct volume, I admit, but once you do (see Kyaami's "Close to you" cover) she just sounds and looks like someone very cool that you'd want to hang out with :D. After her, some honorable mentions are, in no particular order, VY1, Mew (she doesn't sound that much like IA, don't get what people are talking about), Rion (aka precious baby that needs more love), Lapis and Merli (honestly can't decide between the two, Lapis can be kind of chipmunk-y sometimes but she can also sound adorable when tuned right (see her Yume no Hazakura) and Merli just sounds extremely cool and needs moar recognition), anon and kanon (Honestly, I kinda wish they had been appends of a single Vocaloid, that way anon wouldn't be completely left out compared to her sis. But Heart Chrome is still my jam xD. Other than that, their voices aren't exactly unique or anything new, but they can sound very good (see anon's Rolling Girl and Shinkai Shoujo and pretty much any kanon cover by Hyuu, that kid loves himself some kanon lol), CYBER DIVA, and Sachiko (keep the ryouseirui's coming, YAMAHA! lol Sachi sounds so great and powerful and cool and-- just look up some covers okay? Like that one Miku song with the huge title that has a curseword in it lmao)

Zero-G: AVANNA! :D She has a small range of genres she can sing without sounding too soft, but she's very realistic-sounding and her accent and design are just adorable ^_^  (SONiKA is pretty cool too but she needs some kind of update that makes her easier to use and MORE ROCK OR FAST-PACED COVERS //dies. DEX and DAINA haven't impressed me too much so far, but they're still new so that could change.)

Crypton: Was there ever any competition? MEIKO! MEIKO all the way! ^o^ I'm so glad to see she's winning, she needs so much more love and SOLO songs :"| AND HAVE PEOPLE EVEN REALISED SHE HAS AN ENGLISH VB YET!? I demand MEIKO english originals! *flips table* She can sound so powerful yet so gentle and sweet, she's so oneesan-like, just... lol I recommend Love is War, Rolling Girl, Meltdown, Zenbonsakura, Hirari Hirari, World is Mine, Cutey Honey (It has a bit of Sakine Meiko in there but still) ect by her. Rin and Len are close seconds, but that's mostly because of their design, concept, "personalities" and awesome Voice Provider. They do sound amazing when tuned correctly though, especially in rock and techno and even some ballads. I may also like them because I adore Hitoshizuku and her team (can you say Karakuri series?!), Giga-P, Wanopo, and the few songs HoneyWorks has used them in. For covers I shall once again direct you to Kyaami and Hyurno, for they are Kaga-tuning gods lol. (I think very few people can explain the Miku phenomenon with anything other than "moe-obsessed otaku being moe obsessed otaku". She was the first actual "anime girl" type of voice, it kinda makes sense?... I've gotten used to her, I just wish people would stop using her for rock songs, it almost never works out. Just stick to any type of pop, pop-rock, idol-y songs and techno, she doesn't sound too bad then. That being said, her SOLID can sound great when tuned right, at least... Now, I never really understood the appeal of Luka to be honest. Her V4 boomed, her V2's pronounciation is muffled and she never seems to sound powerful enough... Maybe I'm just bringing my indifference to anime Kuuderes and Lady-like characters to the Vocaloid fandom though "^~^ When people manage to make her even a bit clear and they're good at tuning, it works out and she sounds sweet and not-Kuudere for once (Connecting and lots of Halyosy stuff, some Hitoshizuku stuff, Suki Kirai, Ren'ai Saiban, Laura Megurine's covers ect). KAITO looks and sound like a dork most of the time, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.lol x) Fangirls to the side, he can be nice to listen to and works surprisinly well with slower songs. He's not too powerful and not too soft and that works to his advantage. He balances out MEIKO and sounds great with and without her as his partner. Third favourite Cryptonloid.)

Small break, brb with the rest of the companies 'cause this is getting long and I would have a heart attack if me or my stupid laptop accidentally deleted this huge wall of text. "^_^ Lmao
