Description
I wonder how many butthurt defences I'll get from this.Hurr hurr, I wanted to join in the fun!~
Since nobody ever reads the artist comments anyway, I'll just say this - I don't actually hate Hatsune Miku. I'm a vocaloid fan, however, I think that Hatsune Miku is more than a bit overrated. For one, I think that Meiko sounds better than Miku in general. Two, sometimes Miku's voice comes off as whiney and annoying for me. Three, her fanbase largely consists of fantards who like her for her appearance - her voice be damned. Once again, there are some songs that she "sings" that I like, but overall she's an overrated software.

I'd end up covered in rainbow goop by the end of every day in that case, making it harder and harder to make up a lie about not going on a weeaboo killing spree again. XDD

Yeah they're so god damned annoying. And the worst part is that they don't respect their teacher at all (I'm kind of a pet) and it pisses me off.

Oh, that'd just drive me beyond nuts. Almost reminds me of the way my math class is with how loud they are - except it's ghetto prostitutes versus weeaboos.

Honestly, I have Miku's voice. I'm addicted to the lesser-known fanmade Vocaloids though. A lot of people have made much better songs than the popular ones out there. Most have english subtitles and wicked beats.

Yeah. My favorite is an UTAU called Kasane Teto, but my favorite vocaloid would be Kaito or Meiko. (It's tied between them both)
Many of the lesser knowns, as you have said, have kickass songs. Alot of the more well known ones, like the Dissappearance of Hatsune Miku, als suck ass.

This card sounds like the Jesus of Christians.
btw, would you recommend Vocaloids to someone who was Anime challenged? (I've tried so many, but can't get too interested. The only few have been recent anime (around 1990s and 2000.).)

Sort of like that, except for a dumber and more prejudiced audience.
It's not an anime, but a singing software. They're basically singing or talking programs. I can link you a few songs, and you can decide from there whether or not you are interesed. It's not so much an anime thing as it is a J-Pop thing with an anime face.

I never understood Miku's popularity. Her voice is way too high-pitched and her design is not much different then billions of other anime characters. :/
Miku isn't all bad, though.....some of the fantards that claim they sound just like Miku are too fun to watch.

NerdyWitchoftheWeb In reply to hiyoi [2010-12-01 01:36:28 +0000 UTC]
Exactly. As a whole, she isn't even very memorable aside from her massive unwaranted popularity and the way she's shoved down every vocaloid fan's throat.
Lol, you've got a point there. XD There's a silver lining to every dark cloud, I guess.

Append Miku. The Miku voice bank with many different and human like versions. Rin and Len's appends will be released in December.
There's Leon, Lola, Miriam, Big Al, Luka's half Engloid since she knows English, and Tonio.

I like vocaloid myself, but Miku is a bit overrated. You pretty much see her everywhere when it comes to vocaloid, while the others seem to pale in comparison when it comes to popularity and notice.

Ugh....my friend linked me to a video once...at the end all it was was "Wa-ta-shi, wa-ta-shi, wa-ta-shi," over and over and OVER again. So. Fucking. Annoying. And it doesn't even make sense, in English it'd be "I, I, I, I..." all the weaboos thought it was awesome and claimed to have walked around the house the rest of the day scaring the hell out of their family by saying "Watashi?"

I reccognise that song. Yeah, it sucked. I think the original intent was to make Miku seem batshit crazy, but in reality, it just made her seem annoying and repetative.
Reminds me of a couple people I know. They'll deny up and down that they're weaboos, yet when the Miku comes a rollin'...

If I've got the right song, it was supposed to be the prelude song to the song about the psychotic freakshow. Miku's voice annoyed me in both songs.

Yeah, that one.
I haven't listened to many songs by them, but the few I have weren't very impressive...I don't really see what the whole fuss is about over this thing. Actually, the only Japanese musician I ever listen to regularly is Kanon Wakeshima....it just sounds nice.

There are some good ones, but most are shit. Or at least, shit compared to the original versions of the songs.
I still like vocaloid, but...yeah. I don't listen to any one musician regularly when it comes to Japanese music, or at least, not any living ones and if they are living I almost never listen to more than one of their songs.

Eh, I haven't heard them...but if I did I'd be willing to hate vocaloid a bit less.
Yeah, of course I don't listen to Japanese songs nearly as much as English songs....there's one kid in my class who has almost nothing but Japanese music on his iPod...but then again he is Japanese, so he can't really be a weaboo.

Our definitions of "good songs" might or might not differ greatly, but I could link you to some of my favorites if you'd like and we could see if you like those. If not, I wouldn't honestly blaim you. Most of the songs sound better when the Nico Nico dubbers sing them instead anyway.
Same here. Really? Mostly I just know weeaboos, rednecks, sluts, and wannabee gangsters where I live.

Sure. I'm a bit picky about songs, but I don't have a problem with just giving them a shot. Only when my friends keep linking me to nonsensical screamo metal shit and ranting about how awesome it is...
I only know one or two weaboos....and they're my friends, so I'm not allowed to make fun of them :I Not that I don't have plenty of friends who love anime/manga. But they're all Asian. Therefore not weaboo.
And I see plenty of people dressed like sluts and wannabe gangsters...there's also the group of emo/punk/scene/whatever kids hanging about under the trees by my locker.

My friends and I are usually allowed to make fun of each other, since we do it anyway all the time. We just can't do it behind each other's backs.

No...I don't hang around there too often, no one even really notices anyone outside their group of friends...although a few of them sat next to me in one class or another before I switched to a different house, so they just wave hi.
