 * claps*

This is basically, if not exactly, what I would have typed somewhere lol. I remember getting into Vocaloid and wanting to know if there were ones in English and poof I ended up on this wiki... although I found an article for the English Vocaloids they were crammed onto one page and not really bothered with, while even the least popular Japanese Vocaloid got its own article. I was rather disappointed but due to my lack of wikia knowledge I didn't attempt to edit.

No doubt the young are instantly attracted to anything Japanese. Its just the phase that a large part of the fanbase goes through, I myself got over such things when I knew how to use the net at a young age, seeing just how rude people obsessed with other cultures can be, it was like a scare straight.

Its been about 3 years? since Miku was released and you would think people would stop the "if it is not popular here then it is not good enough". What double kills my brain is people ordering a Japanese Vocaloid... and then doing an amateurish attempt at making it sing in English. When they could have just gotten an English Vocaloid... at least for practice.

It is a shame that many Western Producers don't upload their work to known video sites. I've only heard of their songs on messageboards that are rather hard to find. And while most have used a Vocaloid as a backvocal (which is the point) ; they actually won't mention they used one.

I am having flashback to that video on YT with those two kids bash on American / Disney creating Vocaloid. Oyi..
