I saw this in school this morning on the school's subscribed news...
http://www.channelone.com/next-big-thing/

And flipped shit.
First thing out of my mouth?
"THEY MISPRONOUNCED HER NAME"
Second thing
"HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT"
Everyone was like "wat."

yeeaaah. That was kinda painful.

Besides that, my reaction was simply.. "okay then."

Sadly enough.... i... i have been expecting this for a while. i even made a hypothesis for Decade of 2010.

Decade of 2010 will be the Decade of the Otaku. We already know that people read things otakus have created on the internet(memes mostly). i really hope things dont come to this as i dont want otaku culture to be another fad. i want it to be something that people enjoy for years to come. By 2020 all these things will seem "dated." That might mean that some games that are extremely mainstream will no longer even matter, but fads go in a cycle...

I mean, why not give all this fame to Miku's voice actress?

"Otaku culture" was already a fad. The late 90s/early 00s. There were actually commercials for TokyoPop manga on TV.

Everyone working in the anime industry, especially the American distributors, would love to see that happen again. Popularity = money, and that period was the most lucrative for anime in America to date.

voice actress

Let's give all the fame to someone who lent a few minutes of voice clips which were used to create a completely synthetic voice!

I...I guess I am...

She doesn't have a voice actress? Then where does the voice come from?

Tanassy · April 27, 2012, 02:35:24 PM

The voice was derived from some chicks voice.. but you'd be better off giving fame to groups like supercell, livetune, exit tunes.. whoever else who created half of miku's songs rather than a voice actress who lent a few voice samples..

Just one of the reasons I don't get why vocaloid is so popular...
