I'm iffy on language comparisons but i'd accept it in this case because the tone of the voice is being compared rather than the overall quality of the Vocaloid. Otherwise Nana, Rin and Rion are certianly ones that are along the same lines as Miku's voice, and possibly Lapis and Gumi.

I'd also like to remind anon 180 that originality does not automatically mean that a Vocaloid will turn out/be great. Take Prima for example, she has a very original voice being the only female one suited for Opera, yet she does not have as many fans as Miku even though she's so original. Meanwhile we have Lily and IA whom are often shot down for being "unoriginal" and yet hold up pretty well as they have a good chunk of songs, some with 1M views.
