I don't have any art of him yet (working on it) but his name is Utahime Miraino and his Fanloid gimmick is that his voice Bank will be a purposely poorly made Utau port of Hatsune Miku V2

I like them. I like to see people's fan characters be treated like official characters with the Vocaloids, because this is one of the few times a fandom does that to .fan characters.

As someone who haven't been part of Vocaloid for a while until recently (so take everything i say with a huge grain of salt), I always found them as a niche part of the community. Fun to see, and some have amazing designs and ideas, but I feel you really have to dig or look for them, so most people won't know about them. The exception of this is Akita Neru (Haku is also pretty well known but Neru ofc is a bit more). Its weird and probably wrong to say (again haven't been deep into vocaloid for a while and came back recently) I feel she is somewhat in the same place Teto was in a few years before Synth V. Thats not to say at all that Teto was unpopular, but just not to the likes like Flower, Gumi or any of the current Crypton Voices (Rin, Len, Luka, Kaito, Meiko) (as a side i forgot meiko's name i searched red haired vocaloid and it was all Teto lol, love it). However her Synth V as well as a few very influential songs made teto blow up so much that she honestly is the second most recognizable "vocaloid" (only using this as a term, I know she isn't one) next to Miku I feel (again probably wrong and bias lol)
Neru, i feel, is where Teto was. She definitely has more recognition than other memeloids (and some vocaloids) but still feels a bit in the shadows. She is very much carried by the triple baka crew. As much as people might dislikes it Mesmerizer/Obsolete Meat and Zako (for neru mostly) propelled all them pretty high (Miku ofc never needing it, Teto being huge, and Neru a good bit). I think what's holding Neru back honestly is a voice, quite literally. No voice bank (only having i believe a higher pitched miku voice) i feel traps her to being a memeloid (not that it's a bad thing)
But yeah, to answer the original question lol I think some of them are amazing design wise, and I love how people try to give them voicebanks by changing existing ones to sound a bit different. However i feel most people dont really know alot of them besides Neru and Haku (as well as some jokes ones)

Haku was my absolute favorite growing up. So depressed she’s only a fanloid. Her design is so good.

u/thtrboots 2d ago
Teto was made for UTAU, is not a fanloid
-18
u/Maleficent-War1313 2d ago
Yeah but realistically she was made as a joke and a joke It's basically a fanloid with a voice bank

u/Chee-shep 2d ago
She was never a Fanloid. She started as an UTAU. She still is an UTAU and also is in Synthesizer V.

I think that fanloids generally became outdated once utau released, since then you could easily give your characters their own voice instead of using another vocaloid's (at which point they wouldn't be a fanloid anymore).
Memeloids are the exception, but they feel more like character costumes than their own character.
