The Hottest Of Takes

*Inspired by exehottakes* The perfect place for a Vsynth fan to complain

Welcome, Gumi Gang!

This idea had probably been done before, but I was inspired by an account that was centered around exe stuff to take a stab at a hot take blog.

Rules are pretty simple: Give me actually hot takes, not stuff like "Errrrm, Project Sekai is actually bad," or "Luka is hot." Everyone's said those ones before.

An example of what I'm looking for is something like this:

"Gumi's first SynthV voicebank isn't an improvement over her V6, if anything it's even worse."

"I don't get why people use Miku English a lot. She's not bad but there are so many other voices..........."

Mod's note: I think the reaeon why people use Miku english so much is pretty clear. Aside from the fact it's Miku, her english voice is honestly pretty charming and it sounds a lot better than a lot of the other english voicebanks among the Vocaloid roster (like who tf uses Ken). But with the advent of so many good voices like Hibiki Koto and Amara being ignored, I can understand the desire to hear someone else.

From Anonymous:

"my hot take is that Butcher Vanity is very overrated and Yi Xi had so much potential, but the fandom made cannibalism her entire personality and it’s actually kind of annoying."

Mod's note: Wow, we're starting off strong. While I do still enjoy Butcher Vanity a lot, I agree it definitely impacted Yi Xi in a negative way. I can barely think of any other song that she's been featured in. Also, as for her characterization, I also feels there's definitely a lot more you can do with her besides "Cannibal."
