The most amazing thing is Xey, that yeah they like her because she is like Miku, but if you mention those words on VO, a couple of members (whose names shall remain anonymous) will rip you apart for this.

I don't tend to like Moeblobs, they try too hard. Tone's design in particular feels like an overload, like theirs too many contrasting elements and not enough balance. I felt this way of Iroha's Kittyler design.

Bunai said what else I was going to say about the overseas fans, we just don't tend to influence much. I don't, however know how the producers reacted. She did, however, come at a time when about 8 Vocaloids were all due and someone had to be unpopular. There were simply more popular Vocaloids out, and if your a producer who has limited funds and can buy only 1 Vocaloid, your limited on what you can go for. A lot of producers seemed to have hung out for Ia, Lapis, Cul and Gumi's updates more then others like Mew and Tone Rion, and Even SeeU in some respects (in Japanese crowd terms, I'm not taking everything related to SeeU). Some may still even be holding out for the CFM lot...

Even still, based on lack of content or even the amounts of content, judging hits on NND, youtube and pixiv only gives us the fans reaction in terms of popularity. If vocaloids ahve to sell 1,000, a Vocaloid can do well enough but not reflect it.

@ anon 186. etc

You don't like moeblobs, thats pretty much all you say... But anything remotely Japanese is kinda going to attract this. Maybe you shouldn't hang around the Japanese Vocaloids except a few like Mew... even if you just stick to western culture, some of the western stuff tends to be even more "shove sex in your face" at times.
