I think Yanwu is a cool concept. I don't think it's a problem so long as the creators don't try to sell albums or her voicebank for others to use, which doesn't seem to be the case.

I think she's cute lololololol

In other news, the vocamerica contest is ending soon and I'm really wondering how it'll turn out. There were a lot of pop songs entered at the last second, which worries me, bc they all sound like generic poppy "lets get pumped lol" songs, u kno? There were a ton of other creative song genres that were released (there was one last minute that was a chill vibe, really sweet ukulele sounding jam that I really liked), and I sincerely hope that the Vocamerica team will consider other genres besides the "pump it up" stuff

ALthough, considering the fact that they're judging with three factors, one being how well it acts as an opener/closer, I'm really doubting they'll be looking at anything besides pop songs

I'm like...pleas do something different. There are so many other genres out there to use...for the love of all that is holy let's stop with the generic pop songs

Circus released a new song with Gumi too, and it was in the same boat as Like Whatever with Maika...gah I never thought I'd say this but I Miss his old, darker songs. At least they had some real originality and movement to them.

These new songs seem kinda sloppy, imo... But that's just my opinion. If you like them man I'm glad for you! I just feel like they're really lacking in depth or uniqueness////

I fear that YusukeKira has started an unfortunate trend...the "poppening" of western vocaloid music....

And for more positive news today, playing around with Akari's vocaloid voicebank was surprisingly fun??? I mean she sounds so much more unique than I thought she would-- I really thought she'd just be another Una or Rana, but look at her! She's got more of a mature vocal and it's so cool////

I'm so proud of AHS for constantly pumping out all these quality vocals...so proud... ;; v ;;
