#miku discourse

[werewolf-cuddles]

In current year 2025 theres still miku age drama lingering after that fujoshi song came out a while ago

Discourse around Miku's age is inherently stupid, because there are so many vastly different interpretations of Miku that holding up the "official" age as "canon" as if everybody sticks rigidly to it is absolutely asinine.

a drawing of miku by a white person wearing a hoodie is not indicative of culture

vocaloids (and all similar non-Yamaha-owned vocal synths) are bad. all of them.

It's a mockery of the human voice. Frye from Splatoon 3 of all things is the closest we will ever get to having any interesting vocal technique in a voice synth bank. Singing styles around the world are so interesting and take so much skill and you abandon them for a glorified MIDI file? I also blame them for the rise of AI-generated covers, because they first started the devaluing of the human voice and the usage of it as an instrument - a really boring one that will never know advanced or diverse technique. Congrats, Miku made Minecraft, now all of SpongeBob has sang Billie Jean by Michael Jackson. At least the SpongeBob characters have distinct and interesting voices.

[from follow up asks]

hello. vocaloid take submitter here.

i didn't expect my submission to gain as much traction as it did, i thought it was lukewarm at best. i thought there were more vocaloid haters out there. this is tumblr, though, so i guess not. still think vocaloid is ass though.

i will say, it might add context to my take that i myself am a singer and have natural perfect pitch. while i haven't sang in any professional capacity, i've still done some voice training and lots of lower level performances. i have very strong feelings about singing, and hold what the human voice can do in high regard.

i also have a better ear for picking up smaller things in the human voice (re: natural perfect pitch) and the difference between humans and vocaloid is extremely striking to me. no amount of tuning can make a vocaloid not sound lifeless to me, because i will never, ever hear a human voice, and instead of letting the lead of the song Not Be Vocals - which has never been a novel concept - they HAVE to put the voice bank in.

also, re: "frye isn't a voice bank dumbass", congrats! you took away something i felt was actually interesting! god i wish more people knew about more singing styles that they couldn't easily replicate!

while now i know that AI voices are not a continuation of vocaloid, sorry, still think it's bad, go to hell and learn to compose a song without lyrics.

also - still the vocaloid take submitter - to continue:

i will eventually send a link to a playlist of all of the Vocaloid songs i have ever listened to, because i am sure most of the people who think i submitted that think that i do not even know what Defoko is, or that i've heard exactly two Hatsune Miku songs. i know what Defoko is. i know she's entirely computer generated. i've listened to her voice. i still think it's bad. have any of you big shots heard of Big Al? i've listened to him. also bad. it's bad.

I think chicken breast is disgusting and I would rather blend it up into a shake than eat it with my teeth

It’s fast, it’s efficient, it’s nutritious if you add fruits and vegetables. It’s easy to prepare and you can drink it on the go. I need the protein but chicken breast tastes disgusting either way, and I’m tired of putting in so much effort to make the joyless rubbery meat taste good.

My friends and family are wrong, this is the future.

I see some of you not voting! That's cheating!

It's ok if you agree with neither take! Just choose the take you agree with slightly more!

Think of it like choosing the lesser of two evils!

i fucking hate vocaloid age discourse so much bro 😭 hatsune miku, the CRYPTON CHARACTER, is 16. miku as a VOICE BANK has no age. any other versions of miku, that are not specifically about her crypton character, has no age, unless specified by her creator. why do we go through this every other fucking month

I think a common thing I've been seeing around is the fact that people think splitting alters for reasons that aren't necessary trauma related means you're endo, or means you're not 'traumagenic' which is insane.

You can split alters for a variety of reasons. New trauma, stress, a new situation (new school, new job, new friend group) that isn't stressful, healing from things, etc. It's not a one and done always trauma issue. You don't have mixed origins, you have a life that exists outside of trauma and you have alters that reflect that point.

Guys, please look into how alters are formed, their frequent jobs in systems, and the like. I think it would help nail this point into the head.

theoretically if i were to create jordan b peterson miku binder what should i add

[lyn-ne]

I’m curious.

I hope that when Sekai finishes the current unit stories poly(insert unit here) goes canon for each one just to see how many people get pissed off (not me) (I'll be thriving)

seeing people already complain about the sekai movie including the original characters and not just the vocaloids is so funny to me. girl it’s the project sekai movie. that’s like showing up to kingdom hearts land and asking why the hell sora’s here and not just mickey mouse. what are you talking about
