I wasn't in the VOCALOID fandom when this happened. I got into VOCALOID around the time Aoki Lapis released. But after I found out what happened to the originals of Bruno and Clara, I was.... shocked? Upset? Pissed off? Their originals were so unique and to me, they were awesome! I mean, I like Rumple's designs too, but seriously! The fact that the fandom completely bitched about the designs, and from what I heard, sent death threats to the artist, is completely, ABSOLUTELY uncalled for and immature! I spent the last 4 years learning that being different is okay! And just knowing that because Bruno and Clara looked different, and that the fandom couldn't accept it, just pisses me off to no end. I feel so bad for the artist, who spent their time drawing those designs. I can't even imagine how it feels to have your art completely rejected and called "ugly" to the extent of being sent threats (if that is confirmed to have happened....). I kept the matters of this situation to myself most of the time, and I was ready to use these sort of ridiculous and outrageous comments on the anti-hate posters I do on DeviantART, but I think it's time that I share how I feel about it. And by the way, both versions by Rumple doesn't have any cyber elements, I was referring to the VOCALOIDs after them.

Yeah, I can get the anatomy issue. I can't draw, but I have a sense of knowing anatomy. I accepted them alright, maybe caught off guard because I wasn't expecting the style/anatomy at first, but after a while, didn't bother me :)  Even better when I understood their concept of "letting the artist finish their design"

I prefer AVANNA with the elvish ears, since I thought they looked cute and unique. But I'm happy anyways either way

Yep, people called Miku English "manly" :/  Or "doesn't look like Miku anymore/too old". I'll admit, I didn't like the style at first, but I grow to like them. Turns out, it's a new style of Miku. We've had one for append and V3, so why not?

It's just too bad that we can't get variety without the fandom bitching about it... but makes me wonder, wouldn't the weebs get bored of the same designs too and maybe we can move on to new styles? I'm happy about ALYS and wasn't disappointed, but again, I can understand what everyone else is saying about her design being typical or generic.
