Here's the disgusting video if you want to see it

I did another comment as I watched the whole damn video this time

"This video is basically showing marketing... like concerts and commercials and games.

You know why those things were made for her? It's because she's the most successful VOCALOID of all. Those marketing items do not make her overrated. In fact, those things wouldn't even happen BECAUSE those source of those would be the producers and the fans

Second of all, this video is wrong. There were three other VOCALOIDs BEFORE MEIKO and KAITO. They were LEON, LOLA, (January 2004 )and MIRIAM (July 2004), Zero-G English VOCALOIDs. And the tattoo on Miku's arm is there because she's the first of the Character Vocal series, not because she's the first V2. Sweet ANN, English VOCALOID from PowerFX was the first V2. June 2006

Fans chose to like her. Producers chose to make music using her. Without them, none of this stuff would be here. Not even some of the VOCALOIDs we have today because they were inspired or influenced by Miku's success. Or if they did exist, they wouldn't be the same as they are now

Third, this video only showcased Crypton VOCALOIDs. Crypton VOCALOIDs, GUMI, Gackpo and sometimes IA are the 8 (or 9 if counting IA) are the most used and well known/recognized VOCALOIDs. They do have enough attention, even if it's not the same amount as Miku's. Then you have everyone else who is not even close to their popularity

What about SeeU? CUL? BIG AL? Yukari? Bruno? Clara? MAIKA? miki? Kiyoteru? YUU? KYO? WIL? MAYU? Ryuto? Zunko? Tianyi? Lily? Piko? Iroha? Rion? Mew? and so many others that so many fans don't know, remember or care about them.

Sometimes this fandom really and seriously makes me wonder sometimes. Most only care about 8 or 9 of them and cry that they're not popular enough, when there's over 40 VOCALOIDs who have it worse"
