Why Voclaoids looking like other Vocaloids has never bothered me largely amounts to the fact I was once a anime fan and there was a lot of discussion on this in the early 00's I was there to witnessed.

Generally, a lot of characters in manga and anime end up looking like each other and therefore, its futile to be bias on anime design. The same elements in one manga/anime of a particular genre will often appear in another from that same genre. Especially if that genres been influenced by a big show like Dragonball and Sailor Moon.

On another note, I tend to use Dragonball and Saloir Moon as examples on this sort of thing because they tend to be the only shows most anime knowledgeable fans know of even if they haven't seen them. And at east usually can identify with the appearance of the characters or names even if they don't know the plot. If I start using Ranma 1/2 or Dr Slump and this kind of show, not everyone bothers with them these days or know who the characters are from them. :-/

But back on the subject of Vocaloids, they have the same amount of issues to consider. Even if you look at Miku, she has a typical "Sailor Suited herorine" feel to her because of the school uniform, which isn't original and thats just the first thing you can note of her. If we're discrediting based on design, then it would imply to ALL Voclaoids and not just Ring.
