I tried to make a post but I lost it, nuts. D: I think it's a problem on my end though, not the wikia's.

@Mystery: Remember the people that bash original designs and the people that request original designs probably aren't the same indivisuals. You have a lot of people in a fandom, all with different likes and dislikes; so it's not necessarily all hypocrisy. So you can never please everyone, sadly.

I think examples of Vocaloids which have successfully reached a happy medium with designs which are original enough to stand out but also contain lots of elements which are popular might be Yukari and IA. From what I can tell, for the majority their designs were very well received and aided their popularity. :D It's hard to tell exactly how popular a design is though, does anyone have any other thoughts?
