That quote is triggering me so much. :LOL: Seriously, how can people still not realise or research that English Vocaloids have existed since V1, and have seen some famous usages? (Avanna in 'Sad Machine', Oliver in Bee and Puppycat, etc.)

I don't think Flower's Engrish is that good, despite some people in the fandom praising it. It sounds really muffled to my ears and I need to look at the lyrics to understand what she's singing. Though this is a problem I have with many English Vocaloids too, including native English ones. orz

I wish Vocaloid had a function to simply make the VB talk, not sing too. It would make recording a ton of talk samples for certain VBs redundant (let's face it, not all producers use all the separate talk samples, especially if they number in the hundreds. Some producers just don't even bother...

Dunno if this qualifies as an unpopular opinion, but regarding the song 'Senbonzakura', I'm not sure which two groups are more annoying - the Japanese right who interpret the song as a patriotic/nationalist/fascist anthem, or the social justice warriors who complain about said Japanese far-right...

I was listening to Wowaka's discography the other day and then I hear this... The cause of death has been listed as acute heart failure. Heart problems are awful for anyone of any age, but as a young adult, dying from a health issue like that is terrifying. Rollin' Girl in particular helped me...

Not gonna lie, this looks really fun to use. I hope an English voice turns up at some point (considering the program is available in English), because I think producers and fans would also have fun trying to make the voices sing.

The English side seems to have gone really dead apart from whatever Yamaha (suddenly) releases. :(

I wish there were Sakura Miku design contests like they do with Snow Miku. It's boring seeing the same Miku recolour every year in both official and fan art, especially when Snow Miku isn't always represented by a blue and white Miku recolour anymore.

I've waited until some demos dropped before posting in this thread, since the voice type always makes or breaks a VB for me. I think I like Mikoto more right now - she sounds similar to Flower, but why on earth are producers already trying to give her a cursed moe voice? ;_; It's prominent in...

YouTube comments are usually a dumpster fire as it is, and the YT Vocaloid fandom is no exception. The "Vocaloid is dead!" myth has been debunked mutiple times on this board and VO back when it was alive. Yamaha did fuck up V5's release, but it's not the end of the program just because one...

Considering how stressed out Gynoid seems to be on Twitter recently, I'll be surprised and disappointed if the website update is just for a new album. It sounds like they're dropping a big update.

Anything involving "robots" or machines replacing humanity is generally viewed with scepticism or downright fear, so I doubt Westerners in general, let alone Americans will accept or like the idea of a virtual singer in the future. (I don't think acts like Alvin and the Chipmunks and Gorrilaz...

Yeah, that's totally not at all threatening or suspicious... 😆

You might be right, actually. But why do you need to wear a football uniform to enter a gym, unless they all use the same footie gimmick? Unless it's just the one gym and the rest have different rules.

The t-shirts are tempting, but my cheapo self doesn't want to splurge £30 on one. :LOL: (Saying that, I did spend the same amount on a Tears For Fears t-shirt when I saw them live a couple weeks ago...)

As a Brit, I'm so happy the new region is based on the UK! You can tell the largest(?) town is supposed to be London, and I like how it references the Industrial Revolution with all the machinery. Also, there might be a football-based minigame considering the stadium and the main character's...

I miss the videos with the actual Vocaloid characters as well, because it personally made me engage with and connect to the mascots a bit more than just hearing their voices in a song. Videos featuring OCs don't have that same impact to me. I don't really watch PVs anymore either, but I did...

A lot more kids are getting interested in technology through the devices that are now so common in everyday life - some schools in the UK offer coding, which interests kids who are into websites and video games. There's also been a stronger push at getting girls into STEM right now. Saying that...

I kinda hope they succeed - music shops have really been taken out by digital downloads and streaming over the years. Hell, HMV in the UK seems to be on its death knell too - if it dies, the only music shops left on the British high street will be independent stores and whatever crappy CDs and...

@Exemplar @uncreepy Wooow... I'm surprised he's even still allowed to be running such a high profile con. It's disappointing that 1st Place are even holding the IA gig there now (unless they really don't know much about American cons).
