I saw a forum in the wiki where someone mentioned that some part of the Vocaloid fandom do not like the music from the Western side of the fandom. One reason mentioned was because the music sounded all the same or that the stories/themes were usually too dark and edgy or dealt with mental illness. This got me thinking as to what makes the Jp side of Vocaloid so appealing? The Jp music side of the fandom seems to be really popular, but the other sides seem less so.

Vocaloid producers make their own content whatever they want it to be (whether making music as an outlet to express themselves about their feelings, expreriences, share points of view via story-tellin, or just to simply make funny songs to make people laugh). This the base for all producers around the globe, but what is the difference that makes fans more attracted to the Jp side?

This discussion is not meant to intentionally offend anyone (I'm sorry if i did  ; _ ;  ) but to instead find and discuss a possible explanation.
