VOCALOID Least Favorite Vocaloid Ever

[Bookworm2]

I was just wondering, what is everyone's LEAST favorite Vocaloid? You know, the ones you just can't stand under most circumstances? The ones with terrible quality, an annoying voice, or you just dislike them for no particular reason. Specific appends can also count if you dislike that particular append.

For me, it has to be Gachapoid. His voice is just really annoying to me, and I want to punt him into the sun.

Arsloid. It's not that I hate him exactly, but it infuriates me they gave him half-hearted, gimmicky "appends" that don't work without XSY. (I love XSY, but. Not like this )

I couldn't bring myself to dislike nonetheless hate any Vocaloid or UTAU, but I digress. As a preamble, I love their personality and whenever they're in non-music videos, but Oliver. I've only listened to a few of his songs and I didn't enjoy any of them. But I should give our dear young lad a more honest go one of these days.

There's none I dislike but Shiki Rowen... no thanks. I don't like his voice or character design.

 

[Homi-cider]

I don't think I actually dislike any of them, and my goal is to use all of them eventually. I think no bank is truly horrible or unusable.
I guess my least favorites are cyber Diva/Songman? Not super into the designs, names, or the voices most of the time. Although even with those I've heard good uses.

I don't really care for Daina not enough to say that I hate her but the tone of the voicebank hurts my ears typically .-.

I don't exactly like Galaco. It's not an issue with the quality of the voicebank, I just think her voice is a bit... boring? It's just a bit bland and generic in my opinion.

gachapoid. no other context is needed. (also I've just recently learned that the gremlin actually has a name. its ryuuto. idk I barely figured this out.)

 

[Heruru Meruru]

I can't stand Daina's voice.

 

[Luxie]

Shiki Rowen. No contest.

Yumemi Nemu hands down. Somehow manages to be ever so slightly worse than Gachapoid

I find Nemu to be a step up from Tone Rion (who I found to be legit obnoxious, especially on V3), but her voice type is definitely an acquired taste.

I can't say I legitimately hate any voice synth. There's certain voice types I dislike more than others (such as what I can only describe as "cursed moe and shota" voices), but even then I've found songs I really like with those voices, so it really depends who's using them. I think the closest banks I hate are those intentionally made to appeal to NSFW crowds only (I won't name any product but there's at least one out there); any voice that's poorly tuned (even Miku can get me grating if she's pushed way too far); and lazy cash grabs (*coughGemvoxcough*).

Kasane Teto. I have an irrational hatred of her. Yes, I have been seething for the past year. Idk why I hate her, because her voice isn't even that bad. I just don't like her (it probably is because of new fans and stuff that I ended up hating her).

edit from later: i just realized this thread said vocaloid in the title and not vsynth in general. whateverrrr it still works for the thread lol

IK THIS IS NOT AN VOCALOID BUT... i hate amaboshi cipher sm

With respect to Rule 7 of the forums, it would be best if this thread were not used for unconstructive hate towards small UTAUs created by hobbyists.

I agree, and not to mention there's so many UTAUs and similar free/open source VBs out there of varying quality that a thread like this would easily get bogged down by obscure banks most of us haven't heard of. (It's why I mostly stick to talking about professional, paid banks when it comes to quality issues.)
