I usually m not that impressed. I can see why there was a notion for English to be made from Japanese vocaloids who don't have a english version. With more then half of all Vocaloids being Japanese, and they covering most of the vocal ranges (well, female wise at least), I see less of a need for it. There are several Japanese/English bilinguals at this point also.

And considering most are simple VSQ/VSQX slap ins, this is why I don't tend to be too impressed. Those who attempt it ultimately won't also take into consideration what Engloid is being used and won't adjust it to suit that Engloid.

I'm not a native Japanese speaker and I can't also comment on how "good" or "bad" the act of getting a English vocaloid is so I go into a video presuming its really bad. Like that Yuki singing in English video, there re cases of good attempts, however, so not every example is a bad one. Oddly, I don't see too many cherry-picks like with the Japanese->English examples for English->Japanese. I guess its because of that whole language barrier thing getting in the way, preventing a typical English native speaker knowing how good the Japanese actually is. :-/
