Well the issue was that so far all of the Vocals have been Spain Spanish vocals, which have a particular accent to them.

Saying that, bare in mind in 2009, the Engloids were having a hell of a time even getting accepted and it took Oliver And Avanna, as well as a few Japanese-English vocals, for people to accept the language had potential, and people often cited Japanese voicebans English as better then it was, asking why bother with English when the Japanese ones were godly already. In 2017, we know this has a level of false statements, but one of the hardest thing is to get a new language established. In fact, the most successful almost-out-of-the-hat so far is the Chinese vocaloids, and even that wasn't flawless. But also consider that even the Japanese side of things wasn't a ht until Miku several years after Meiko was released....

But yeah... A worthy note also is that Giuseppe himself had a reputation... And this was more about him showing his ego when faced with criticism. Yes, I agree a lot of fans don't know their talking about, but the only way to shut them up was to keep going and not give in. Let the release show them the truth... Let there be fans willing to defend the new vocals and build support up for them, dispelling myths and the fandoms BS... Ultimately, this was one factor in English Vocaloids finally getting accepted over time. Eventually, you'll release something everyone falls for and then the releases afterwards aren't so unbearable.

Also, a little bit of Spanish pride came out when addressing the non-Spani Spanish speakers and he pretty much said "Spain Spainish is superior as its the most right spanish". Its sort of like a British English speaker telling an American English speaker their English is stupid.

So there were a lot of levels to this. I can remember him coming here and telling us the feed back we added on a "R" related sound being off was wrong and both had perfect Spanish. Even though I don't speak spanish, I even got into the debate with him and pointed out Vocaloid itself struggled with "R" sounds in other languages. Needless to say, it was just the wrong person trying to release a Vocaloid. And quite honestly... Maybe we're better off with him staying out of Vocaloid production. His producer skills were often head over heels above other producers... But his attitude... It wasn't the right fit for the fandom considering the fandom is known to be... Well... Over-dramatic.

About all I else I can add... When you consider he added how to make Japanese vocaloids sing Spanish and then had this thrown back at him... It was kinda... Funny. he created his own nightmare in that case.
