Please stop spamming comments that shrimp Miku should have won the snow Miku design contest.
If GSC didn’t pick it for the top 6 for voting then that’s that. But it’s extremely disrespectful not only to the winner, but to the shrimpku artist too.
Things Vocaloid producers can use for their videos instead of AI “art”
-Vocaloid boxart
-Piapro artwork with the correct licensing
-a $20 skeb/ko-fi
-MS paint scribbles
-stock photos
-pictures of their Vocaloid merch
Mori Calliope is a Megurine Luka knockoff.
-same color scheme
-first Eng/jpn bilingual singer
-same asymmetrical design choices (i.e skirt slit, arm covers)
If mori copied Miku instead she would have never taken off b/c ppl would have rightfully called out the copied design
pls don’t throw anything or threaten to destroy the led screen knowing Crunchyroll it’s probably the only led they have for the whole tour and I really don’t wanna have to bring my TV for Miku expo LA it constantly switches the channels and it’s only in black and white thank you!
>sees discussion on v3 Miku Eng design on subreddit
>it’s all “she looks a man” comments
We do not deserve Zain and quite frankly ppl need to expand their taste beyond moe styles
If you like shrimpku, buy the artists doujin plushie!!!!!! Or draw fanart!!! Or make your own shrimpku nendo!! But pls don’t harass the winner or fans who like the winning design.
@mikuexpo
Please fire Crunchyroll as a sponsor, the LED screen instead of a hologram, refusal to fly out the original Japan band, and their MikuExpo team is ghoulish that they refused someone from distributing free doujin goods DESPITE them getting permission from CFM
The way the MIKU EXPO team handled this situation with this fan is legitimately embarrassing dude. CFM shouldn’t step foot in the states again if this is the kind of behavior they’ll allow their staff or anybody working under them to get away with while engaging with fans
This is an extremely common misconception but the reason why there’s so many Miku figs and merch is bc CFM purposely takes a low percentage cut of sales to encourage more merch and collabs. Which is how we end up with Miku croc giblets
I feel weird about Crypton needing to rely on fans to fund their concerts. Like don’t they make enough money off the four thousand different Miku figurines and PSK? Miku alone has to be one of Japan’s highest grossing character IP. They do so much collaboration and marketing.
I’m warming up to the OCs in project sekai BUT SEGa should consider adding more vocalsynth characters, imagine the $$$ when ppl want to get vflower, gumi, KAFU cards. SEGa would be able to find a Project diva movie with all that revenue
*this does not apply to AI voicebanks published by Yamaha, Dreamtonics, Cevio, etc as these are “AI” only in the sense that they are trained on the singers own samples (and the singer provided consent to have their samples trained for the purpose of the voicebank)

A decent chunk of Vocaloid wiki info and context comes from Vocaloid Otaku and Nicopedia which were burned down like the library of Alexandria. Without this prior knowledge, you don’t have context for “ugly” Meiko which was from new producers not knowing how to use V1 engine
Vocaloid wiki is such a mess, the amount of times where there are opinions or misinformation on pages is BAFFLING
Like I just saw on a vocal's page that one of her vocals is "more interesting" than the other??? And on one of Meiko's pages her vocals are literally called "ugly"
From "HATSUNE MIKU: COLORFUL STAGE!" comes a POP UP PARADE figure of Kanade Yoisaki, composer for "Nightcord at 25:00"! Fans of the game, be sure to preorder her for your collection!

Also: said Vocaloid fans who were teens with unlimited free time grew up to be adults with jobs and are too busy to really search for the good stuff like they did as a teen

I really want to like this Miku but you could swap the teal in mikus twintails for another color, tell me it’s a new vtuber character debut, and I’d be none the wiser.
When I posted a warning about pedophiles in Cheers39 and half the fandom thought I meant “these ppl like teen fictional characters” and I had to correct them saying no they harmed and groomed real, physical children in Europe
Upon further research it seems Piapro allows the upload of AI “art” to the site as of June
If you’re like me and think this is unacceptable, you can leave feedback about the Piapro site here:
I hope CFM will reconsider
@SV02chiyo
Your tweet just made me realize that minato is the only producer I know who made the gayest Vocaloid song ever (magnet) and the straightest Vocaloid song ever (spice)
Honestly the range of this man needs to be studied
kids these days need to learn their roots. last year i went to a con dressed as megurine luka and multiple people came up to me thinking i was cosplaying mori calliope
He’s the only English producer besides crusher-p to have made it in a jpn rhythm game which means there has been some familiarity with Japanese contracts, expectations, etc.
Also, he’s consistent with making music, scandal free, and is recognized both overseas and in jp.
People worldwide are celebrating Hatsune Miku's 16th birthday (the eternally 16-year-old virtual pop star came to life 16 years ago). Oshi no Ko manga artist Yokoyari Mengo decided to set social media on fire by getting into the action with her own take on Miku.
@SAWTOWNE
I’m disappointed at Crunchyroll bc your song DESERVES the hologram experience. But regardless, you’ve done the impossible and won a MikuExpo song contest, AND ppl LOVE your song, the message. Even if it seems overwhelming to see all the negative messages…your song is amazing
Gonna add an opinion here that so far nobody has stated
The overseas game is Hatsune Miku: colorful stage. This means Miku is the priority.
Jp game is project sekai FEATURING Hatsune Miku. The OC’a are the priority, Miku is just a feature
Let me explain why this is relevant
The HATSUNE MIKU: COLORFUL STAGE! team has an important announcement in regards to the "Revivial My Dream" event! 📣

hella happy this is finally being brought to attention bc if this was "discovered" just later on, nobody would have cared bc I'm 99% sure she paid for the stock photo licenses
2ch hated (and still hates) successful women hence the witch hunt
Illustrator Yunomi-P, known for working in many famous pieces such as Magnet, Just Be Friends and Spice!, retires following accusations of plagiarism and tracing (2010)
This reason I post this is besides that being a kinda cool fun fact, it really shows how the majority of Vocaloid fans grew up so a good chunk of us are 20-40 when we got into Vocaloid at 10-30
There will always be teens who treat Vocaloid as a fad, but there’s dedicated fans
@shanhorandraws
I remember this book and how it addressed body issues such as Anorexia and my poor older siblings thought I was anorexic!!! And it was like no your youngest sibling was just really really small growing up.
It’s like when you’re copying someone’s homework and they ask you to make some changes so it doesn’t look copied…but whoever copied it didn’t listen to that advice
Hi I’m a vocal synth junkie (Vocaloid, synth v, Cevio) and this is fucked up. Don’t do this unless you have this person’s explicit consent and NEVER add them to someone’s AI to be trained off of other ppl’s (very likely) stolen data.
Start regularly recording your parents, elders and loved ones. With enough transcript data, new voice synthesis and video models, there is a 100% chance that they will live with you forever after leaving physical body. This should be even possible by end of the year.
“You can’t be a jpop idol if you sing in English” is such a funny take bc I was like “what about coconuts musume” and they were like “who” and I was like “the morning musume sister group” and they were like “who’s morning musume” like ok clearly u shouldn’t speak on this 😭
Drawing Miku wearing Palestine coloring/colors is not a violation of Miku’s character license and is in fact strongly encouraged to share one’s culture with Miku.
So please, stop with the dumb tweets.
There needs to be in-person events to supplement this otherwise this will be very hard to support future online events.
Even I am getting tired of online only concerts.
I’d rather support a crowdfunder for in-person touring
We will be launching a crowdfunding campaign from 11 AM JST on Feb. 6th, 2023 for “HATSUNE MIKU EXPO 2023 VR” ✨ Stay tuned for more info!
When we reach the goals, the MIKU EXPO live concert will be streamed for free later in the year!
#MIKUEXPO2023
Confession time: 1 of the reasons why I’m so mad about Crunchyroll mishandling MikuExpo is bc MikuExpo is literally the ONLY true vacation time I get away from my job, my family, and all the stresses of life. So for me to dump hundreds of dollars on nice accommodations (cont.)
V1 Kaito was “easier” to just use without much tuning whereas V1 Meiko required more adjustments (and also she wasn’t a cutesy voice like Miku- hence sakine Meiko and alcohol being her item bc she sounds “drunk” by an inexperienced user.
“We will review our commitments of spreading a culture of respect and inclusivity”
Boom.
Anything which can be seen as cultural appropriation is not acceptable to the Hatsune Miku brand
@kzzrttt
Physical sales are low bc unlike moe anime that includes tickets for VA events this anime has not moe denji. I’m more curious about streaming revenue, I want to see how much Crunchyroll has contributed to overal profits
Prsk is sega, idk how much revenue CFM is earning from the game itself. It might even be a situation where CFM gave licensure permission to use Piapro loids for the game for low percentage just like merch
