^Just a note, don't forget we've had confirmation that several existing vocaloids took notes from Miku.


 * Big Al, Sonika, Gakupo, SF-A2 miki, Macne Nana (now included in this list)... Notice how all of the ones taking notes from Miku and co look nothing like Miku???

Its hard to escape how much influence Miku's design has had on other vocaloids, its "there" but not always confirmed and often strange when it is mentioned.

Se does not have to look exactly like Miku to be influenced by her, and since Miku is continuing to influnce vocaloids over time even now, expect this issue not to go away. Especially if there are fan designs involved, because a lot of Vocaloid fans are uncreatative and often based their designs on existing elements of vocaloid design; which has been proven time and time again in competitions to be going on (though slowly things are improving).

So far the only "clone" was have was that Chinese red singer, who even then doesn't actually look like Miku.... But did trace copy Miku's moves from the Project Diva series songs which was pointed out and has been embarressing to mention ever since. :-/

Maybe its because I've gotten used to character designs in animes in general, but I don't see any problems with characters looking alike. It happens a lot in anime/manga and Japanese characters and usually its by chance. :-/
