Miku has a very distinctive and appealing character design. She's not just "generic moe character #334298737". Miku's voice matches her design quite well. Popularity is a holistic phenomenon, so yes, if she looked boring and forgettable then she probably wouldn't have become popular. The same could be said about almost anything ever, so at least you've found a pointlessly cynical approach that can be applied to dismiss all comers.

Now that everyone's had a chance to shitpost in reaction to this news, may I ask why?

I'm a sincere Miku fan, but I just don't see this changing anything. Miku has always been commercial. She opened for gaga and has had other international exposure.

Ultimately her voice is something of an acquired taste, so the mostly old viewers of TV news will probably have a dismissive chuckle about it and everything will go on.

Vocaloid music is going strong. Most of the poeple who say otherwise don't even listen to it. As long as the music scene is alive, it's all good.

It won't change anything. Vocaloid is available to everyone, so it's only natural that there will be shit music alongside the good music.

While I agree with you generally, considering that every thread we have here is related to Japanese media and that the board itself is called /jp/, with the implication being that it relates to Japan, and not say /ot/ or /geek/, suggests that you shouldn't be surprised that people have an interests originating from Japan in anime or 2hus.

Aww man, I just know they're going to make fun of her, play World Is Mine, say something about how wacky Japan is then make fun of her some more. Its gonna be horrible.

You're making it seem like she's a real person and could decide whether she wanted to be involved with any of this at all or not.

Its pretty obvious that she's the most popular Vocaloid. Would you use a less popular character from your franchise in advertising? No, if course not. That would be like using Charmander instead of Pikachu when advertising Pokemon.

I disagree. My interests and hobbies are part of what makes me me. Since I don't latch on to passing fads, and I don't define myself by what t-shirt would look cool to that brunette at the coffee shop, turning my genuine interests into passing fads makes me feel bad.

Your genuine interest can't magically become a passing fad because of what other people do. The people who won't care won't care and the people who do care will continue to care, unless they choose to run away of their own accord.

You're never going to see hipsters running around with Miku T-shirts under their tweed jackets anyway.

You guys do make a good case. I admit that my initial knee-jerk rage when I saw this last night is fading. You've raised a reasonable doubt in my mind.
I don't know if my interest is waning though, perhaps it is.
Miku's top hits is still on my 40$ imitation ipod, and I do still listen.

Lets be honest here, vocaloid needs wider popularity, for some time now they've been churning out too many products instead of focusing on improving the rooster. If Miku will take the bullet for the whole project I personally don't mind, there are many better ones available.

I'm not against new fans or increased popularity. I just want fans who like Miku on her own merits and not because talking heads praise her and she is celebrity approved.

I guess I hope she hits it out of the park with her performance but that Letterman is mildly dismissive. That way, any new fans it brings will be people who have at least a modicum of independent judgement.
