I AGREE WITH YOU. Especially anout MIKU. I have been listening to vocaloids since... Forver. Eye mustauh been 10 or even 9 years old. Even went on niconico to find more songs. I noticed when MIKU herself got popular. I still think it is soooooooo weird. And look what everyone has made out of her. Before she was a vessel, now shes a character. Her "lore" is IMPORTANT CONTEXT. To people. She is REAL now.
