Hatsune Miku English V3 to hit the markets

The world’s foremost virtual idol Hatsune Miku has finally arrived in English, in form of the much delayed Hatsune Miku English V3. However, there is still many thing which are unannounced, for example the release date for the packaged version. You can find more information on this website: http://piapro.net/vocaloid/mikuv3e.html



Here are some reactions from fans:
  • Funny thing is that the box of the japanese V3 version looks better.
  • Not liking the Western Miku much. zero cuteness
  • $149 is a bit steep.
  • I think Kaito is posing as Miku in this one
  • Looking kinda manface there Miku.
  • Norio Wakamoto vocaloid next please
One incredibly skeptical person even managed to point out the fundemental flaws of marketing to the west:
  • I'm even more scared of the hordes of talent-free weaboo wannabe-composers/producers that will undoubtedly flood Youtube with inhumanly crappy noise.

    In Japan, mostly those with actual musical talent are doing Vocaloid songs, must be something cultural. Only do what you're good at and don't stick out negatively by sucking and stuff. Unfortunately there's a severe lack of such sentiments here.
