>>12315Yeah, it's get on my nerves too. The "P" is like an honorary title given by fans.
Coming with a "P" when you're a nobody is just as stupid as calling yourself "sama" or "senpai" (we all knows that weebs doing that too)
In France, the comm is still relatively small hence there's no drama.
"Big" producers/utaites are pretty chill and the audience too.
And as a teeny-tiny part of it, I'm greatly happy with that.
But I'd really like to know more about the anglophone part of it (since Voca is mostly a matter of community, it's interesting to compare its expression depending on the country in which it's located)
I hope that thread won't turn like the Ghost one (a massive shitshow with unfunny sperging apparently made by ghost herself)

Some drama brewing on within the UTAU (freeware Vocaloid, for those unfamiliar) community.
User revolocities is taking old voicebanks, fixing them up and creating new art for them. Some people are getting pissy at him for doing this and getting offended on the behalf of users who've been inactive for over half a decade. I figured Vocaloid and UTAU are close enough in proximity to bring this up and bump up the thread.

>>12305GHOST is the most incoherent content creator ive ever seen.
does anybody remember the "you can be kin with all my character besides the pedo priest" deal? when literally their character at the time were:
- two deformed monsters
- a homicidal-suicidal mother
- a homicida-suicidal wife
- a suicidal husband
- a homicidal minor
yeah you cant be kin with a pedo, but you can be kin with all my homicidal OCS!!
plus all the inside jokes they puts on their channels (both the old and the new one)? youre a content creator keep these fucking inside jokes to yourself.
and the jeff the elf deal too. what were they expecting, with that kind of fanbase?
last but not least: "I DO NOT MAKE FANDOM RELATED SONGS!!!" theyre right. they dont make fandom related songs: they rip off the most popular character of a fandom at the current time, make it into a shitty oc, and make a song out of it.
not to mention they made a thread for themselves and repeatedly shat it up.
this person's bpd-induced god complex need to get a cure. go see a specialist, ghost.

>>12324The UTAU community needs stuff like what revolocities is doing. As long as he's giving credit, that is. Unfortunately that community (in the West at least) has been very nearly dead for a long time.
As for all these communities, I wish the content creators were more open to constructive criticism. There are some producers who are decent but not great, and I feel that useful criticism could help them figure out where their skills are lacking.

>>12330she deleted her ask blog a while ago so i don't have caps, but she used to adamantly refuse compliments and talk about how much communications (her abandoned project) was stressing her out :( but oh noo it wasn't her fans fault (even though she posted a lot about how people wouldn't stop asking for it to be finished)
someone leaked the old thread on her to her askblog (which she deleted shortly after the incident) and she posted it to twitter and got her fans to spam it with bullshit with her
she has no problem with talking shit about her parents on streams and on her blog (apparently they both abuse and hate her but she's broke buying too many vocaloids so she can't move out)
there's not too much on her other than that afaik it's mostly generic tumblr dramas and edgy music
on a side note, she's currently considering giving up music to set up an art shop. she posted about it a while ago on her Twitter, but has said nothing on any of her blogs about it. which, considering most if not all of her followers follow her for music, is kind of something they would need to know

She even met my friend at a meet up and even though he's a nobody she hung with him and invited him to a live stream. Her only crime is she's a weeb, which honestly a lot of us are.
But I won't bash your opinion, she does use autotune and edits her voice, but most artists do. She ain't no professional singer for sure. I'm sure if she just sang on stage with a mic it would sound awful.

>>12337I see what you mean. Yeah she doesn’t really have any milk.
I know that most artists use autotune, but not as much and obvious as hers at least. You can really hear the autotune without trying so hard to hear it. It just ends up sounding so robotic. And I also agree with

>>12340I remember this modeler got caught red handed by another modeler for stealing a whole body base once:
http://archive.is/rswCeHe claimed it wasn't the same model, but apparently he forgot to fix the one anatomical mistake the model had that gave him away to the original creator. There was another drama (also about him stealing assets) on Twitter, where REM (another MMD modeler) found out Yoi-Style was using one of his textures for one of his commissions:
http://archive.is/dhKuYSo part stealing for his models isn't really an unusual thing when it comes to this guy. Which makes VOCAMERICA's 3D artist choice… Interesting to say the least.

In my opinion that's part of the reason there's not much talent - people grow up and leave for better things.

triggers me that people still repeat this misconception in 2017, it's pretty much the fastest way to out yourself as an elitist weeb who doesn't actually have the first clue about the japanese community. P names are barely a thing anymore (hence a lot of popular producers moving away from them), but when they were, self-ascribed P names were in the minority but they weren't discounted as a valid option. i can't count how many rando japanese producers i've seen with them. the "like an honorific" thing was basically grammar usage notes (so people don't make weird stacks like lamazeP-sama) but somehow that got warped into a whole damn rite of passage. it's not a big deal tbh.
the japanese community has really turned into a flaming pile of edgekid bullshit in the past few years just like the western one, it's just rare for it to leak into the western community unless it's REALLY bad. like maretu cheating on his girlfriend for a minor, or rerulili being a narcissistic dick, or like two or three people plagiarising music, or even that one utaite who made fuckin TV news after he got arrested for sleeping with a 14 year old fan. this community is so full with insane trash people that most of the people with actual talent don't even bother anymore.
also holy shit do most of these kids who got inspired to write music through kagepro have no idea about music theory at all. it's not as viscerally disgusting for someone like me as GHOST or creep-p's stuff but i legit feel so bad for the people being overshadowed by this atonal tryhard garbage.

>crusher sells t-shirts for them, everyone pats themselves on the back for supporting a real cause
>a few years later
>parents are thoroughly outed as munchies
>complaining about doctors refusing to accept their children's self-dxed schizophrenia
>bragging about putting their children on ridiculous dosage levels of antipsychotics that are linked to brain damage in adults
>posting videos of their barely-conscious children drooling on themselves in their fly-infested hovel
>outright admitted to physical abuse in a biography and having a child sex abuse report against them
>no vocaloid fans ever bother to check this out, at most they just complain about vague "ableism"
>despite the community possibly being financially complicit in the abuse of a child
>crusher has a falling out with the family at some point after their divorce but barely acknowledges the drama, says the kids are fine
>goes ahead and releases an updated version on her first major album anyway

i know this is petty but ffs, this is such a perfect example of what sheltered brats most "edgy" producers are. the contrast between this, a real life case of mental illness and abuse, and the "i'm so crazy and sad :((" bullshit they write about is so huge. i wish they'd grow up. or at least take care not to accidentally involve people with actual issues in their bs.

Can someone fill me in on the whole subber drama thing over people "stealing" translations? I really don't get the idea of that being a thing. Like, yeah, they did the work (Excluding the "translators" who have very basic knowledge of Japanese if any at all, use shitty online translators as a crutch, and act like they're reliable sources), but they don't own the actual lyrics. Two people who know what they're doing are going to get the same or near the same translation, right? Even if you make a modified version to make it easier for people to sing in their native language, it's not your song, it's just a singable fan translation. Plus, if another subbing channel takes your translation and claims they did it by themself, isn't that technically pointless because then people will ask them to translate things they can't find and they'll be found out as a faker?

>>12392I liked his new Luka song, Dream. His songs and tuning are extremely hit or miss for me. Once in a while he makes something really nice, but usually his stuff is a little generic and grating.

On another note, it's too bad the Unholy Quartet didn't do more actual covers together. They're all at least decent singers, and their vocals were pretty tight. I would've liked them to do a series of songs or something.

When you are the only one to provide a translation people are bond to use that translation one way or another. Getting offended over something like that is just being an over-sensitive snowflake.
Also if I'm not wrong HnY also got

I'm making fr adaptations of Vocaloid songs myself, and I put a lot of time and heart into.

-dex
-macne nana
-oliver
-maika
-yohioloid
-gachapoid (she used him for that one 'meme' song)

-utatane piko
-otomachi una
-avanna
-hatsune miku
-sweet ann
-mayu
-chika
-cyber diva (?)
-ruby
that's all of them, judging from what i can remember/reuploads/what's currently on her channel.
unfortunately i can't find the costs for a lot of these, so i only managed to get to a total of about 1014.78 USD (not factoring in any sales; this is including fukase, cyber diva, otomachi una, lumi, vflower, gumi, chika, gachapoid, maika, macne nana eng and gumi eng)

I posted that simple quiz in the comment because people are capable of making change and pushing forward. That dosen’t mean that they don’t become aware of their past mistakes, it just means that they are rebuilding, they are a work in progress.
And i know that the other producers may do things that i may not agree with, like underpaying collaborators, interacting with minors, or something of the sort. And if you’r aware of that, then maybe reporting them to the police or even the FBI would be a lot better than resorting to this comment section here. I know this is lolcow, and it has a purpose, but there are other options OUTSIDE of this website. Like, if you’r being abused, calling the police is the best suitable option.
And if you saw someone abusing them, getting the police involved or giving the person enough strength to get out is an option as well. So it’s not like calling the police, or going to the cops yourself isn’t an option anymore.
If anyone is aware of that person’s misdeeds but still enjoys what they do, whether it’s making videos, music, or comics, etc, then let them do so. Because we all have different thoughts and opinions on people we may not like.
Unless of course you decide to make some sort of meme or joke out of this, then go right ahead. I’m kind of expecting it.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

I like Ferry's art sometimes but not his music.
ODDEEO's stuff is pretty good though, alas, the fandom doesn't like music that makes sense. (Not sure if they're new, but I never hear people talk about them.)
Kira's lyrics might be too "baddest bitch on the playground" but its listenable and I like it.
I also like the song Back to the Future Funk(it's an UTAU original).

No. 12557
>>12556There's a few nuggets of decency, but no it's still pretty bad. Bad mixing, clunky lyrics, reeks of midi and sounds halfbaked overall.
Also maybe it's just me, but if I were going to make a song about how bad my parents are, I'd make sure my song is good-enough to convey that on its own instead of spelling it out in the description for pity points. If anyone really wanted to know if it was based on reality, they could ask me on twitter and I'd answer them there.
An example of this done well would be Kimi wa Dekinai Ko by Kikuo (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPF7lit7Z00). Was Kikuo's mom like this? Is Kikuo just being edgy? Who knows, but the song is creepy and sad and that's exactly what he's going for here.

Mother of god, thank heavens there is this kind of thread on the world wide internet.
For years and years I've been lurking quietly in the vocaloid/UTAU community although in the most recent ones I've basically been gone and boy, it is the most tacky catty middle school cesspool ever, it's unbelievable.
People only care about themselves and pretend to have friends (only to mooch off their art or other skills) only to backstab them, feel at the top of the throne when they interact/are praised by japanese fanbase, are extremely unwelcome to newcomers, only care about popularity and the cash, constantly involving politics and SJW fuckery, going on catty bitch fights…
I don't have any particular tea other than what's already known, just wanted to voice my contentment on there being a thread like this. Keep going.
That said, any tea on that girl who voiced Ruby/Makune Hachi? other than deleting their UTAU (who was better than her vocaloid imo) to make a vocaloid (for clout and money) and bitching because it wasn't "latina enough" or something?
There was some user called Scarfu as well I think they were involved but I might be wrong.

Never used this site before because HOO YIKES but like. I wanted to comment here and say I’m actually a fan of GHOST’s but you guys do have some valid criticisms here. I’m personally a fan of nonsense lyrics and shit because I’m able to relate to them more that way?? (Idk it’s how ive grown up feeling like… I don’t wanna get personal I’m not a fucking baby lmfao) but sometimes it’s kinda difficult to understand what GHOST is implying by the lyrics and I do think that perhaps changing things up a bit would be really helpful to them and their work. I really don’t like associating with their fan base because OH my god are they toxic and annoying as shit. They either whiteknight fucking EVERYTHING GHOST DOES or they go against what GHOST wants because they feel like they’re entitled to their old songs. Which I mean yeah it makes sense, but I feel like they could’ve been a little more respectful especially when GHOST started freaking out and went on that hiatus around this time last year I think?? Is when they came back?? I don’t fucken remember. But you think they’d be like “oh this person doesn’t want me to see something they’re ashamed of, okay” instead of posting that shit everywhere just so they can listen to it. Idk. Just seemed shitty imo. At least GHOST has a reupload channel now. (Although they keep changing the fucking name and it’s hard to find it because they change it all the goddamn time). Another thing I’d like to comment on is GHOST’s distorted style of music. One of their biggest inspirations is Lauren Bousefield, aka Nero’s Day at Disneyland and also BLACK DRESSES, who are both known for having veeeery distortion-y music. I personally like some of the songs by those guys but not all of it is my thing exactly especially since the noise can be soooo harsh sometimes.
Sorry this is a long ass fucking rant BIG YIKES
I’ve been a fan of GHOST since around the time they foraged started out as Ghostie-P, waaay back in like?? 2013 I think it was? Yeah. And yeah their music wasn’t great and when I go back and listen I’m like hoooo boy but I mean my music is pretty shit too, it’s not something I take super seriously especially since I also make music on fucken GarageBand lmfaooo. I don’t use Vocaloid because it’s not something I’m super serious about and I don’t have nearly as many resources as GHOST seemed to have even in their very early days. I’m gonna be real, I’m around the same age GHOST was when they started making music and I was like what, maybe 9 or so when I first found GHOST? So it’s safe to say their music grew on me and I stuck around. We’ve spoken a few times and they actually seem to be a pretty decent person.
However I do feel like the game isn’t particularly good for them. They talk a lot about how the fame is stressful for them and it’s easy to read sometimes and that’s a bit of an oh boy. They have (to my knowledge) professionally diagnosed BPD and there’s a lot of not so great things that come with that specific disorder and a stigma around it saying that people with that disorder are abusive or rude or whatever the fuck. But honestly a mental illness shouldn’t ever. Really be an excuse for your actions yknow?? Like there are still like yknow morals and knowing right from wrong so you can’t just use that as some sort of scapegoat per se. I feel like GHOST has been a little too public and personal regarding their status as a creator and would probably be better off if they stuck to how I notice like MASA does things. (I love MASA, he seems pretty chill). I’ve never really seen him having like as much info public as GHOST does and his fan base doesn’t seem to be nearly as toxic and made up of babies as GHOST’s is. Theirs is just annoying. I mean, look at the fucking Amino they have. That shit is fucking apeshit and those bastards archive every little fucking thing GHOST does and even has like almost every single piece of their art saved in a giant ass folder. One of the other GHOST amino things has an old picture of GHOST in it from 2016 too. Honest to god, Spider on the Wall makes more sense sometimes damn. I just really feel like slooowly but surely pulling out of the public scene would be better for them since fame has proven itself to be a struggle for them and as much as I know this site is for poking fun, it’s got some valid points made here. GHOST would be a lot more well received by sensible people if they chilled the fuck out and didn’t try and make so many memes out of their characters and make jokes and be like super public with fans. They don’t need to and it only causes them more stress so I don’t see why they’d do it?? And like I said my music is ABSOLUTE SHIT and I know it but like I’m not gonna run around and try and get all big like what GHOST has done or treat myself with more importance than what I actually have.
As for the criticism thing, GHOST has a bad habit of taking the critique way too personally. I mean I do it too outside of YouTube (since that’s not what I do for a living) but honestly. I’ve noticed it in the past turn into a “Well since you guys didn’t like it I’m gonna get pissed at you instead of thinking on how to improve and I’m also gonna read ALL of it and complain and say that I’ll just become some perfect being since that’s what you all expect haha” when no one expects that and nothing ever changes. And any fan who sees anyone say ANYTHING that isn’t kissing GHOST’s ass will whiteknight the shit out of it and pull the whole “can you do this? Then don’t criticize!” When that’s a bullshit argument in the first place and we all know it. If something doesn’t sound good, it doesn’t fucking sound good. I don’t need to be good at clicking and dragging voice clips around on a computer to say “Hey, I can’t understand what the lyrics say.” Like shut the fuck up if you think like that lmfao.
But honestly I’m glad I was able to say this here because god only knows if I said any of this ANYWHERE else, I’d get my head ripped off by a bunch of angry 12 year olds who want to kill their parents or some shit I don’t fucking know.
TL;DR GHOST needs to get out of the public eye for their own sake and also work more on some improvement.(autistic blogpost)

The male sounds like any stereotypical western UTAU, whilst the female sounds like a chipmunk because he pitched up his own voice to sound like a girl.

Vocaloid/UTAU is a lot of a heavy DIY project, most Vocaloids really only have a design and a few sparse bits of information, and when making a song or song series or whatever you can even change the few aspects that are there, and UTAU is just an OC you can make sing.

Basically GHOST and I (along with Jim) were friends at one point, (really good friends at that) until I tried to kill myself due to severe depression and GHOST basically abandoned me. They worried about me in public (twitter and yet livestreams) but never once came to me in private. I had a 7 day window before I was gonna officially off myself. Shit happened, and I called it off. I was basically saved by steam and my dad. Of all the seven days, only steam had messaged me consistently.
When I cut ties with GHOST after, they basically used isolation tactics, calling me out as the one in the wrong. All my friends that were their friends ofc took GHOSTs side. Basically GHOST accused me of being "
problematic" cause I told her to "kill themself".
I never did. It's just that I remember this one time I said I would understand if they offed themselves (cause of their situations at home) but I would be sad to see them go.

No. 60390
>>60268Akuo is a major piece of shit. There is a long history of horrible things he has done but the fandom barrier prevents the English fanbase from knowing. Even in the general Spanish convention scene he is not well liked. He mistreats a lot of Spanish artists in private like a High school mean girl.
In public, when Vocaloid designing contests used to be frequent he would enter all of them because his dream was having his own Vocaloid and become a Vocaloid designer, and eventually he convinced that other older dude of making it for him (which is how the Luan shitshow came to be). Back then his strategy was enter all design contests and he was a sore loser. He bullied the winners of both the Maika and the Alys contest and spread defamation on Facebook claiming the artists traced, copied designs, the companies had bias and shit all over them. He was so inflammatory Voctrolabs banned him from their Facebook page for a while.
He also pretended to be a producer and got music made for him by ghost producers, got donated free art to use in said songs by spanish fanbase artists and when the ghost producers dropped him because he was so difficult to work with, all those projects flunked and ghosted every artist. All of his supposed "original songs" were not composed by him. Everything is a fame gaining scheme to him.
After years of problems people turned on him and he shat all over the spanish fandom and claimed he was done with Vocaloid forever because Vocaloid was the worst fandom of all. Then after years of radio silence Luan happened and everybody recognized the silhouette of the art and the shota archetype to be one of his doings (he is into shotacon and drew it for money on Patreon). There was a shitstorm, callout posts were made and he scurried away for years again until AkiGlancy lured him back with money. He is involved in Vocamerica because his boyfriend makes the models and he does the textures for them. AkiGlancy finds their relationship very kawaii yaoi so she ignores any drama surrounding Akuo.
No. 60400
>>60390I remember when Luan came out, I legitimately thought it was another prank voice using Bruno and Clara XSY. It didn't take long the voice provider was leaked and that's where I learned about Akuo being shitty.

>>60460Any time you call out a producer or diet utaite for their e-begging they always shoot back "BUT I HAVE TO MAKE A LIVING YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND". I remember when Sam was shilling some kind of one-on-one course on his Twitter, either for tuning or songwriting, and he was trying to defend himself with that excuse. As if getting a part-time job like a normal fucking person wasn't an option. A lot of people don't realize that music production rarely pulls in a livable cash flow unless you're hugely popular with a fanbase that isn't 99% middle school weebs, so you're definitely going to need to have a stable income to rely on in the meantime.

I generally do not mind "messy" songs or stuff that sounds like cacophony, but grindcore is more listeneable than his shit. I don't get why he has fans. I don't get why he even bothers at all. Delusional.

>>61888the utau fandom and wiki owners in general are a bunch of elitist assholes who go "uwu my garbage singing oc is SO much better than any vocaloid!!!"
it's also noticeable that more of the admins on the UTAU wiki are switching to this cringworthy format that looks like the Steven Univserse Wiki.

>>61888they defend UTAU like some underdog but same the bunch would throw UTAU under a bus if they get their singing OC on a different engine because lbr no normies would even touch UTAU
They hate to admit Vocaloid has brand recognition. If their singing OC is on something that's more accessible, they'll steer that way and don't have to resort begging for someone to use their singing OC. It's all about getting egos inflated when someone uses your singing OC.
when Plogue hinted custom voices on Alter/Ego could be a thing, people were bugging Plogue how but they eventually killed off A/E support anyway
when SynthV became a thing and Renri got ported on it, they were hounding the dev on how to get their singing OC on it until the dev put up a paywall to do so
when DeepVocal (formerly SharpKey) became a thing, guess who were rushing to port their singing OC on it and praising the interface to be like Vocaloid
an UTAU voicer got on the Emvoice engine but the company is doing a good job pissing off users so no one really wants to use it
UTAU stans project too much, you'd often hear them say shit like "If I were to voice a Vocaloid.."

>>62015Disagree. I don't think a tranny angst song with less than 1000 views is the root of drama in the UTAU community.
I think the issue is that people only care for their own super special snowflake voicebanks and the popular voices (Teto/Ritsu/Ruko/Gahata/Aiko), so it's a highly self-centered community where user x thinks their bank is better than user y's because x's bank is vcccccccccccvvvvcvcvcvvv multipitch with vocal fry and people use each other to try and piggyback off of other user's fame and such

What gets me the most are those people who aren't even willing to pour in minimum effort in their UTAU (ex: don't want to OTO) and just expect asspats to come out of nowhere.
No. 62416
>>61743there are one or two points where it almost sounds like an actual song while the rest is a worthless clusterfuck. i feel like the only reason why his videos get clicks at all is because he commissions talented artists and pv editors to make sure his tribe of speds have something pretty to look at.
>>61909you summarized my annoyance with the obsessive utau community perfectly. used to see a lot of these saddos on the vocaloidotaku forums before they went down and it was painfully obvious they were just salty that even vocaloid's worst voicebanks still got more attention than their singing oc.

You need to take control of your life your music, your reputation. First of all, instead of trying to copy GHOST you need to find your own style.

Me being the star-struck 16 year old I was, I naturally wanted to be "Just like him! :D". I worshipped the very ground he stood on and it took me a while to see past his technicolor sludge. He constantly shilled his album, would only come to calls on skype just to say "Lol my life is pointles XDDDDDD" and leave. When he was on call not just being what I now know as obnoxious self deprecation for small sympathy points to fuel his cheap makeup-encrusted ego, he was talking about how he hated himself (despite living in a nice house and having equipment that I envied at the time) and then at the drop of a hat, talk about how great his music was. It was chaos. Long story short, I got into an argument with his friend (unnamed because we are on good terms now) and said some things I regretted at the time. Eyeris got upset over the situation and called me a multitude of names. I called him a pansy, deleted my old channel (not really worth looking into since I didn't post anything on there regardless), and came back years later as my current producer self. I used to be worried about telling people this for fear of Eyeris coming back for me and dragging my aspirations through the mud, but I'm not the person he painted me as anymore. I've grown, improved my character, and now I'm no longer afraid of him.

>>63338And while we're on the topic of tea, I need to explain my experience with shay. So I actually got to know ghost a bit due to some things we had in common, and for like a week, everything was looking up. However, people noticed I was
bragging (which is true) about being friends with them. Then, they contacted me, saying that they felt like it would be better to not talk anymore, due to getting some receipts from another person about some of the questionable stuff I've done. I was mortified, but calmly told them that I understood. I then spent the next few days pitying myself over this, and vowed to make a song/do something to mentally break them. That was the catalyst of everything falling apart. Ghost got told about THAT too, and warned me not to do anything stupid, And then I absolutely went all tumblr on the community, telling some people to fuck themselves, cut themselves, etc. Karasuhana made a post on soundcloud about it… and
everyone started to attack me about it. I
begged Karasuhana to take the post down, even going as far as to say I couldn't live with myself knowing that the post was up. Eventually, things died down and the post was removed… and then Wowaka died. In response to this, I made a
very disgusting meme of the mrs kiesha vine, except the doll's face was replaced by Wowaka's. Needless to say, Karasuhana striked again and posted a tweet with proof I made it. Then everything turned to shit
again. I then became jaded, bitter over everything that happened, so I decided that if I was gonna go down, I'd bring as many people down with me. so I tried setting up "proof" that Ghost was a bad person, but of course i was found out. Eventually, I
finally went to therapy and am getting the help I need. So yeah, this all started because I basically was a bootlicker towards Ghost. That's my story, I guess.

TLDR it's obvious she uses people and pays them in her keychains and albums to do it. don't support that shit. nothing about what she does is fucking amazing
off topic. not that anyone cares about ghost, but has anyone noticed how lupin/kenji or whatever his name is now tries to be more relevant by flexing that he's the voice of dex and riding on the coats of other people to do that? like honey i'm home got a lot of attention so the only way to get said attention is to cover whatever the fuck got it?
i remember someone asking if there's any issues with lupin and there's not much to say except that he bitches and complains about people making complaints about dex and daina. not to the same level as misha does about ruby but he still whines about it lol and as of recently he's being a massive try hard
No. 64644
>>64624if you check lupin's twitter all he tweets about other than anything vocaloid related is constant politics and whining, and any far-left journalist articles.

No. 64650
>>64644once they get to "the top", they act smug and elite. they think they are "holier than thou". it's condescending bullshit and disgusting. and their fans eat that shit up.
it's hypocritical how in the beginning after dex and daina's voicers were revealed, lupin was "okay" with criticisms for them as long as they were "
valid" and actual criticisms. now he can't stand it and whines every time someone mentions it. say they can't grow and he gets mad about it even if it's the truth. he and aki literally admitted they didn't know how to growl so they made wookie noises and somehow that passed in the final.
sorry this is a thing people buy and not an utau that nobody has to give a shit about or pay for. nobody has to act like dex and daina are perfect when they're not. get over yourself.
No. 64659
>>64650I agree. It's also borderline creepy how he mentions his egosearching on Dex is "fandom and content management" (last time I checked Twitter wasn't a fandom forum in need of admins). I've seen him go as far as putting himself in the middle of people's conversation to counter any kind of criticism towards Dex.
I honestly think Ruby, Dex and Daina were the downfall of the western fandom. It was dumb of these companies to give people, who can barely handle an ounce of actual criticism, this kind of power. These three are basically glorified branded UTAUs and their voicers (Misha to an unbearable degree) also act like they're so. Baffling how it's a thing people have to pay for to use.
No. 64662
>>64659it's creepy and pathetic really. this is sold software. people have a right to complain about it if it has problems. policing it makes no sense and it just makes them look like overly sensitive whiny children who can't handle something as little as "their voices aren't for me". there has to be a "why" for everything and if shit is bad, then they'll make a whole ass thread about it and why their "feewings are hurwt". never should have left utau if they can't handle real criticism but they would rather get the clout of "voicing a vocaloid uwu i'm so cool now"
you're right about ruby, dex, and daina being part of the downfall of the western fandom. i've seen people complain about producers being directly involved in making a vocaloid and it's shit like this that proves it right. they obviously don't give that much of a fuck about vocaloid itself and only want the attention that comes with being one lol. if there's any more of this shit, it better be from someone who knows what they're doing and are humble about it instead of doing it for clout
of all three of them dex is probably the better. he has a good voice type but the quality isn't that good imo and he has a bored tone of voice by default, so he needs good tuning. people can say to separate the voice from the voicer, but it's hard to do that if the voicers are active in the fandom and are unbearable condescending people who are so full of themselves and far up their own asses that they think they have a right to police everyone and their legit criticisms. disgusting.
No. 64709
>>64663considering the shit qualities that daina, dex and ruby have, the bar is low. count in luan too since his voicer is a genuine asshole who keeps trying to insert himself into making a vocaloid so he can roll in fame and clout. his voice wasn't even good according to the spanish fans i think.
you know it's for clout and attention whoring when they put "voice provider edition" for anything. non-western voicers don't do this shit. they just cover, promote the original and leave. but i don't think these attention-starved cows understand that. too busy trying to stay "relevant" and "at the top" while stealing money from weebs with their shit quality merch. love where the 21k went into.

I think that makes the point of the comic more clear. Unfortunately it's not really possible to tell from just the illustrations.

Found out more about Kikuo
He used to be named Pedo-o and had a group with Loli.co (Red Egg) named PTPD (last updated 2012)
He became Kikuo in 2008 when he did a remix of a song by LOLI.COM. His name, Kikuo, was listed on the site in 2011 when the top song came out (Kikuo as the composer)- it really doesn’t help that Gommenne Gommenne came out the same year
It also REALLY doesn’t help that Red Egg helped him on Waltz of Malice

>>65002Christ, I didn't know all this about him.
That definitely makes the whole situation more complicated and shady. The Twitter person is a dumbass, but a broken clock etc etc. I'm still hoping for a translation for the manga.
Honestly, though, a song like "Gomenne, Gomenne" about a little girl? Written by a grown man? It should've set up red flags to begin with. I don't get how all these people didn't cancel him from the start for that shit. It's not like English subs were unavailable until today.
No. 65009
>>65007The person on twitter is a clout-searching POS, for sure. Fuck them for not doing any research and just looking at the surface of things.
As for Kikuo’s songs before the discourse, I’m Sorry I’m Sorry seemed to be created to tell a story rather than for fetish reasons (some people even speculating that it’s his way of coping). And, unlike MARETU, his songs are always shown from the perspective of the
victim and are more sad than aggressive. What also threw me off was Hitogawari and how it was about a girl dealing with trauma from a past
abusive relationship yet is now in a healthy one. It reminded me of the book Lolita and how everyone hated it simply because it had disturbing themes, despite having a good moral- obviously that doesn’t apply to Kikuo anymore though
No. 65010
>>65009Same, honestly. All this time, I seriously thought he just wrote dark songs about child abuse and trauma in general to raise awareness and tell stories about what are usually taboo topics.
All of this other shit is making me pause and reconsider everything.
No. 65012
>>65011It’s your own choice. Personally, I think I’ll still listen to them but I won’t support Kikuo until he’s disproved all the pedo claims (which I doubt he’ll do considering the PTPD is Kikuo and Red Egg seemed to be common info in the Eastern community).

>>65020So, I tried (again) to read this, and I think we need an English translation, and soon.
Throughout the pages, you notice that the kids and adults are drawn in very different, distinct way. However, the older girl is drawn to look the exact same age as the boy, despite it repeatedly being underlined that she's older than him, and the fact that he sees her as a "big sister". Literally the only time she's drawn to look significantly older and bigger than him (like she would be in reality) is on the page where he sees her covered in injuries (pic related, domestic abuse or self-harm). It seems like this was done purposely to demonstrate that from the boy's point of view, up til then, the girl was basically the same as him. The illusion was only momentarily broken when he was shown something abrupt and unexpected, and even that was brief. The following pages switch back to the "childish" style for her.
From what I've looked through, she herself is
not portrayed as an
abusive child molester, but something of a
victim herself. When the sexual scene happens, it's on the same day where she's completely out of her mind, talking nonsense and covered in injuries (possible domestic abuse or self-harm).
The sex messes him up mentally, but he doesn't hold any hatred for her. He actually just wants her to stay with him, but she rejects and abandons him. That shatters him, and he ends up addicted to masturbation, doing it so often that he makes himself bleed, and finally, he gets nothing out of it anymore. No one can help him.
He ends up isolated and depressed as a result of these events, but then he's reunited with the girl, and she helps him heal. With her, he takes lots of photos of different things, which he later shows to his class (and he keeps one photo of them hugging).
There's definitely a lot of plot points and nuances I'm missing because of the language barrier, but this might be creepy in an entirely different way from what was first thought. Creepy or heartwarming. I don't really know what to make of this anymore. With all this in mind, I feel like it was slightly dishonest of Kikuo to pick those two screencaps to make his point, but I can't really say for sure until we have the full story.
No. 65047
>>65045Say what you will about Kikuo or his subject matter, but his use of psychology/perspective is spot on.
Though the fact the two reunite in the end is kinda sketchy. I don't know how the same person who raped a kid could end up helping that kid heal unless it was by staying as far away as possible.
No. 65049
>>65032>>65031>>65030You all seem quite defensive over animated child porn. Maybe you have something to hide.
Either way animated Cp falls in ''simulated cp''.
Why do you think so many pedos fap to loli porn? Because loli's are always shown as kindergarden/elementary/middle school children
and often the authors of that porn outright say that loli is 2-13 years old.
No. 65051
>>65047That's what I thought, too. The guy is definitely talented and intelligent, but the way he might've handled this particular issue is eyebrow-raising at best. Even the sex scene itself isn't really portrayed as forced in any way. The whole thing just carries a weird energy, and I wish we could have the full context to confirm/deny all speculation once and for all.
This definitely wasn't just a bit of perverted fantasy material he lazily left up on Pixiv thinking no one would care since it's 2D. There was a lot of thought put into this. He was trying to send a message, and I'm pretty sure it's a little more in-depth (and perhaps less socially acceptable) than a simple, out-and-out "Child molestation ruins lives". With the limited information given, I get the strong feeling that if someone were to personally ask Kikuo if he considers what happened between his two characters to be a case of rape, they wouldn't get the straightforward answer they'd normally expect.

It's not Kikuo's job to "disprove" anything. Everyone knows pedophilia is bad. If you don't have actual proof (as in, him hurting ACTUAL CHILDREN), you assuming that he is one is your own fucking problem.
You don't have to support him, but automatically assuming he's guilty of one of the most heinous crimes known to man just because he likes exploring edgy topics is fucking retarded.

it's nothing but her being a condescending "goddess" who can do no wrong in this fandom. "holier than thou" bullshit. clout chasing. nothing new from her. the "mama aki" act. disgusting.
now that i think about it, she really does get away with shit. not only for the moominloids, but i rarely ever see people call her out when she wrote creep-levels of tweets in regards to shota. or when she is seen liking adult (or implied adult) x minor ships. but people are more than happy to call out non-english speakers on it. double standard dumbfuckery in this fandom i swear
No. 65560

No. 65585
>>65560Don't know any vocaloid ship she has but she's so into frisk x sans from undertale. I do remember some milk about her taking over that flowerfell AU with her UT fansong blowing up. I'm not autistic enough to know the details of UT stuff but iirc the AU maker pretty much disowned everything after getting harassed about it. They hated the fact other ppl made money off on their AU including Aki's song. I wish I can get old screencaps before the author's meltdown but I remember them vaguetweeing Aki used to shill her song in their art streams.
>>65579>hardly a pioneer of engloid fandomIt all started when she got the gig to draw Avanna and that's pretty much her foot in the door. She even bragged she solicited to be a demo maker but zero-g hired her for art instead. Just look up her song track record on a vocaloid wiki, she's been trying to make it in the nico scene by weebing out with Japanese songs back then. It's just too suspect after the Avanna gig she's been putting out English songs and painting herself as the paragon of engloids so lol
No. 65614
>>65591Doesn't help that she went as far as recording her VOCALOID with "a neutral accent" so it could "sound good in both English and Japanese, but in the end it sounded like shit in both languages. She wants so much validation from the Japanese fandom it hurts to see.
Also, I've seen people on Discord groups who have been in direct contact with her (and some still are), who said part of the 21k$ went to the development of both Dex and Daina, but that's just a rumor, since I haven't seen any concrete proof yet. Even though I don't think it's too beyond her to do that.
No. 65636
>>65585I cannot fathom why Secret Garden got so much attention. I guess I'm glad she didn't use her own vocaloid at least. Cyber Diva as Frisk literally makes no sense though. Why not use an actual child voicebank (Like oliver)?

it's also confusing that she clearly wrote frisk to be female in her little frans escapade, even though she's extremely fond of gay stuff. wouldn't it be more suiting to her having frisk be male?
No. 65645
>>65644Yeah, especially given her gross comments about shota/young boys.
Now, the Sans and Frisk thing is thin ice, cause if a character is aged up for futurefic, I don't see a problem with it personally. But I don't know if she aged up Frisk for the ship, in which case thats a little kid and a grown man…

iirc there was a stream with her, one of the guys from zero-g and crusher. i don't remember what they were talking about, but it was about vocaloid, and she would just randomly talk about how she's doing art as they were talking and then suddenly bring up what program she's using or complaining about an art issue as if they had anything to do with the original subject of the stream. like jesus christ, nobody fucking cares about your unrelated problems aki. stop being such an attention whore.

really shouldnt be surprised since this is a clout chasing event. the three english v4s from zerog and pfx are all garbage, with dex being slightly better than the other two. but they all have trashy voicers so it doesnt even matter.

>>65899Well, according to that stream, through Kenji. Maybe they (Zero G) thought they were playing safe by picking someone who is already known within the community as if it would guarantee more purchases? Head voice is such a problem with most UTAU too given that some of them literally talk into the mic instead of sing.
Speaking of UTAU I lurked around for a long time and I wonder if anyone remembers the voicebank Hana Chikako? The voice was disgusting and always over tuned and autotuned even on soft songs but more melismas = better!!!. Her design was blatant fetish art too (those inflated giant thighs). Based on what ‘she’ sounds like I’m like 99% sure her creator is a man and there’s a weird track on his soundcloud from a few years ago where he speaks about some tea he never spilt and it’s obviously pitched up/formant shifted to hell. Delusional.

arisa mitsuko is an issue because her team called her a vocaloid when she isn't and she used someone else's voicebank and claimed it was hers. now i don't remember if this was also an issue, but if they were making money off of the concert, that would also do it.

But yeah, naw, Daina's problem isn't related to head voice. The main problem is that Aki has never been good in that no one really gives a shit about her utau Namida or gaf about Aki's voice. Which is why Daina had to come in a bundle with Dex. Because otherwise, she would have gotten more shit for being a crappy voice.

>>65953it's not just you. i can confirm that the choreography is a fucking joke. at its best it's fine, nothing amazing but still decent enough, and at its worst it's whiter than a mayo sandwich. there's a lot of reliance on charades-style movements where the vocaloid just acts out the lyrics, and none of the "choreographers" take into account the gender or design of each vocaloid. which means you get dex dancing like a fag, yohioloid flailing around into his coat, daina bending at the waist and getting lost in her ponytail, and maika's existence.
>>65971sam and aki's vocaloids are also hilariously opposite to what they are in real life. daina? tall, slender figure, long flowing hair, narrow face. aki? short, obese, short hair, permanently looks like a middle school weeb. dex? tan, fit, handsome and masculine but still a ~pretty boy~. sam? albino, overweight, soyboy, dweeby loser.

Tfw typical American but not all of them have the audacity to constantly post their own selfies but Aki is a different story. I recall she posted her kid pics to Weibo juxtaposed next to her current self as a user icon and we all wanted to say I'm sorry for your loss even though the intention was probably to fish for compliments.
Anyways, I'd get Aki on the constant attention whoring aspect of wanting validation for her selfies but not necessarily attack her for being overweight or what have you. It's the thought process behind the selfies that needs to be corrected.

>>66012I know you were probably joking but he's so light I think "maybe he could be albino", but their hair is actual white (at least, caucasians)
>>66043Piko had the hair. Real shame about the product, I remember he was a bit fucked over by Sony which meant his vocal quality wasn't great, he could've had something there with the deliberate androgyny, maybe market him as a voice type that can be masculine and feminine depending on how you tune it. It still hasn't really been explored even though the GEN factor can be changed on every Vocaloid; Rin lends herself really well to being lowered (e.g as Neru) and Miku can sound very mature too instead of her highschool V2 squeak (no hate, V2 has a soft spot in my heart). Conversely if I had her I'd try tuning Daina by lowering the GEN to make her sweeter then try to mix it in a way to stop her being so raspy. Or, idk,
anything to get rid of that disgusting noise when she speaks from her glottis, kuk
>>66055>Last I checked Circus is about Aki's weight.fucking hell. Dude always had fangirls because his e-image is another bowl cut bishounen.

No. 66210
>>66067Oh yeah, the whole Utatane Piko situation is saddening. I really enjoy listening to PIKO, and honestly he deserves more recognition. His wide vocal range, combined with his androgynous style are two of the things that drew me to be a fan of him.
Utatane Piko is the same. I really like the concept of an androgynous-style vocaloid like Piko - his voice can go super deep but also super high. Or maybe release a "feminine" voicebank alongside his normal one. Just a thought.
That being said, Sony is a pretty big company. Utatane Piko had the chance all these years to get advertised by Sony, which would result in instant fame. Not only for the vocaloid, but increase in sales for Sony, and recognition for PIKO.
Aside from Sony's foolishness, another reason he failed was that he was overshadowed by Len and Rin's (mostly Len's) append release.
In another timeline, Utatane Piko could be as popular as Hatsune Miku herself.
tl;dr: piko failed because sony and len. the youtube video i linked has a comment that explains it better than me.

he saw that the artist liked dex so he showed them his songs and asked people to translate them so the artist could understand it. and he flexes hes the voicer again. after that the artist made free fanart of the song. it looks manipulative like he tricked her into doing free art of dex and his persona. this reeks of his desperation

>>66847western users use it for "muh diversity" or "I nEeD rePreSenTaTiOn!!11!"
eastern users from what I see use the darker skin look for "evil". you can watch these anime's with evil elves and they are all dark. if you look at the wiki for aku her name is literally translated to "evil sound".
I personally don't like re-designs/re-colors of a character with a canon set design. unless it's just the look of the character; clothing, hairstyle, accessories. but… when you completely change the race of a character or make them out as some LGBT & POC propaganda, then yeah fuck off. it's disgusting

I think tans are cute. The problem is SJWs aren't drawing vocaloids with tans, they're race-bending them for "representashun"" (even though blacks have more rep than asians in western media)
Not only that, they're making them ugly as hell & forcing politics
Hell, crypton has official tan racing Mikus(sepang Miku), and there are tan vocaloids and tan UTAUs from the eastern side. Is Crypton an SJW now?

>>67422honestly couldn't care less.
ppl cope in different manners, some have healthy ways of doing so, some don't.
even if it wasn't coping, a joke is a joke, whether it's extremely dark or not. personally, it's not my cup of tea when it comes to jokes, but i acknowledge not everyone will have to like whatever they read, just like how some people dig offensive jokes and some are sensitive to them. it's a subjective matter, i guess.

>>68456Nvm, I just read it up. Holy hell, the admin is an extraordinary cunt, they didn't just delete the nsfw lyrics but whole pages that they think are too nsfw, even if it's just vague metaphors or slightly gorey mentions. Why is it always those powertripping crybabies that get the highest roles and end up completely shitting on their userbase? Imagine you took the time to write several pages or even translate lyrics on there because you love vocaloid and want to contribute to the community for everyone to see and then those bitches come along and delete all your work with one click and a
>Also, I don't understand how there is a big backlash now over something that we decided on long ago. If this was a problem before, then this should have been brought up before, not after. There is nothing to debate or argue with. What is decided on is decided on. There are plenty of other lyrics hosts and frankly, lyrics weren't originally supposed to be VW's job in the first place. If people don't like this change, then they can simply use another lyric host. That's all I have left to say about this topic.Thank god there's still VocaDB but still, yikes.
