Spanish vocaloids were prob. overall the best of the 3 new languages introduced in V3. However, their fandom is still a little weak, not Korean Vocaloid weak...

Its sort of like the English speaking fandom was a little in 2007-9, behind a little in development and very weaboo centred. This puts its own vocaloids at disadvantage since Japanese ones tend to get preferred. Least this is what I see. I don't know if their as bad as the English speaking fans were in 2009 towards their own Vocaloids, since I don't know spanish. This is something a Spanish vocaloid fan will have to comment on.

I think with Maika, there is a problem with her additional phonetics being over hyped, so there is some fan misleading going on within the English speaking fandom. We had this before with SeeU, even with the mistakes over Sonika's language notes, nobody wanted to believe that claim yet SeeU they took it as gospel. And likewise I saw with SeeU what I'm seeing with Maika... Just not as bad as with Maika. This makes me less keen on custom dictionaries for future vocaloids, because they give some fans the impression that they can fully replace a language library. :-/
