First English and now her Japanese is great and now all we need is Spanish and Korean and Tianyi will truly rule the world

Cyclone... She can do Chinese and Japanese, but this is all she is set up for. Without a full English voicebank, no Vocaloid can do that good English, even Maika despite what everyone says.

I'm hoping eventually the language myth dies, but honestly... If people just move the myth to our site, then it won't die. Basically, you want a HQ language result for a language, you make a voicebank for said language. Without it, you can get clarity but never quality (note; remember clarity is not the only sign of quality, in fact... sometimes the clearest vocaloids are crap quality).

I just tired of addressing languages after 8 years... And with VO gone, I'm hoping the myth dies with it. I don't like lecturing people on it either since it feels like I'm belittling them or talking down on them, like they've said something stupid. Something stupid, however, in this fandom is basically along the lines of "Gumi is a MEgpoid not a Vocaloid", even after people showing proof otherwise, but even then its not "stupidity" say such as its ignorance or mistrust.

I'm reframing from commenting, I can hear a few accent issues with the Japanese voicebanks, but I'm not the one to analyse them accents impacts. It honestly doesn't really tend to impact Japanese voicebanks anyway as much as other languages like Chinese and English. Its often more subtle. I'll wait for the Japanese fans to discuss it. Unfortunately, due to bias and politics, Japanese fans prefer Japanese voicebanks in Japanese over foreign ones. Which means this is something that doesn't always come. :-(
