So this is sort of a spin off of this topic but what its about is different.

So here is the problem I find with dealing with hatred with Miku; people don't really grasp how over popular she is and how under popular the other vocaloids are.

I almost feel like its a loosing battle trying to explain the bigger picture about Miku's popularity, that its not just producers keeping her super popular but fans. And that there is a reason even the other CFM and other Vocaloids don't get a look in at times.

ITs gets to the point wherein even though I dislike Miku, I'm constantly finding myself defending a part of her which I don't feel comfortable with defending. Its part of the reason Miku lost every last bit of "special" to me as after years of looking at her.... I really struggle with looking at her with any form of spark of interest.

Even in terms of over seas, she is more popular overall because the general anime/maga audiences treat her like some sort of God. This is again, something people complaining about her don't acknowledge. People who have never heard of Vocaloid have heard of her, people who have heard of Vocaloid have heard of her.

So this isn't a rant but more of me explaining how the situation of constantly explaining her popularity is getting rather old. I don't know how people feel when it comes to Miku in this situation, but I wanted us to have a chance to clear some of the hassle off our chests and get it out there.
