I've been a Vocaloid fan for about 10 years now, and while I know I’m not alone in how much this whole world of virtual idols and producers has shaped my life, it feels pretty personal. Vocaloid’s always been one of those interests that never really faded for me.

Funny thing is, Hatsune Miku never quite did it for me, even though she’s the most well-known. I’d heard Vocaloid songs here and there, but it wasn’t until I came across "The Lunacy of Duke Venomania" by mothy that I really got hooked. That song opened the door to the whole Evillious Chronicles, and from there, it was basically over for me.

My favorite Vocaloid is definitely GUMI, but I’ve got a soft spot for Gakupo too. When it comes to producers, my favorites are mothy (of course), MASA, and nyanyannya.
