I think the thing Miku Formula people don't realize is that you can only make so many original designs, and they may only appear original because the viewer hasn't been exposed to them before.

Take, for example, my embarassing moment when some of my original characters from before I discovered Vocaloid appeared to follow the Character Vocal series exactly:

The main character who has long teal hair

Her best friend who has short "blonde" [actually more gold/yellow] hair

And their other friend, who is mysterious and has pink hair to a bit below her waist.

I mean my OC's... but anyone around here wouldn't think of them being my characters [Iris, Kate, and Claire], they'd think of Crypton Vocaloids [Miku, Rin, and Luka].
