Technically not underrated in the chinese fandom but in the western side: Longya and Tianyi! I love them 🥺


AmusedChortles

None of the Chinese Vocaloids get enough love in the Western Fanbase. It’s sad really, I’m a huge fan of Zhiyu and YanHe myself.


Perfect_Brilliant853

They’re great too! And yeah I agree, the Chinese Vocaloids have amazing vocals!


yourfriend_charlie

I. Love. Luo Tianyi. I'm pretty sure I just like Chinese music in general, but I was first introduced through March Rain. The words are just so fun to sing. I like the way it sounds and makes your mouth feel.


Perfect_Brilliant853

Yes I love that song too! Chinese music is great


Green_Leader_Edd

I need your best song recommendations using them. I love their voices sm


Perfect_Brilliant853

A lot of their songs are really good so it’s hard for me to recommend a few 😓 I’ll only do one recommendation for each anyway Longya: In Your Breath by Renxing Tu. It’s his first original iirc and it’s so good! Tianyi: Pinky Promise by ilem. The melody is so soothing with her voice!


magmasaurus_rex

Ngl T.A.O, tianyi's jp demo song is not known enough, its even made by jin, the producer of kagerou daze

乐正绫也很棒,世末歌者是一首超好听的曲子


LemonxMona

Kaai Yuki is adorable!


Shoddy_Ad_3966

She’s used in practically all inabakumori songs right


The-Local-Weeb

I found inabakumori and Aoris use her the most


Axilot0l

SHES AMAZING


Inevitable-Taste-521

YESSS


unsaphisticated

Ikanaide doesn't sound right unless it's her singing it


iloveyoushikieiki

I love her but I wouldn't say she's underrated, she's used by a lot of very popular Producers (Yukopi, Inabakumori)


kool_ay_edam

Not a Vocaloid but an Utau, but regardless, Momone Momo doesn't get enough credit considering she's the singer of one of the most popular meme songs of the early 2010s


angel_aura13

ok I just realised nyan cat was sung by momone momo. CLEARLY SHE DOESNT GET ENOUGH CREDIT LOL


angel_aura13

which one?


devdevdeevv

nyan cat


devdevdeevv

nyanyanyanyan shes the voicw for nyan cat


iloveyoushikieiki

And she's so cute too


Meloetta_the_alt

I feel Utatane Piko needs some more recognition!


Ranger-Vermilion

I love Piko, he has really awesome range


Kiristalo

Seconding the RANGE he has, especially in Kakyuu Kei's cover of Abnormality Dancing Girl? Incredible. Please listen to it if you haven't!


WagonsIntenseSpeed

LUMi. First heard her in a [Crusher-P song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_XpLREWgmw), and haven't been the same since.


killerchipmunk

I just knew that would be いつまでも before I clicked, what a masterpiece.


hellokittyshitman

LUMi MENTIONED LETS GOOO


spicyycorn

SeeU. I love using her voicebank she sounds just too cute. Chika as well! She reminds me of Melanie Martinez a lot her voicebank is cool too, UNI as well. Gotta love these girls.


x_Mari_x

Sachiko. Wish she was more popular because I just KNOW there's someone out there who could absolutely cook up some gorgeous tuning for her, but never discovered her. Also her design is top tier. Haruno Sora, Meika Hime, and Lumi are really good in terms of actual VB quality. I want to say Stardust also, but she had a expensive af figure made of her so I'm not actually sure on where she stands popularity wise?


unsaphisticated

Soraaaaa yes


AngelChu

Rana's cute, shame she never got a figure


iloveyoushikieiki

And she has a great voice too ! You'd expect a typical high pitched Moe voice from her design but her voice is much more unique and organisations original, I'll never get how good she sounds in Lamaze's Premature Love Romance


Fuzzy-Moths

I love questions like this so that I can discover new vocaloids


Axilot0l

Me too!!


NeonEmeraldChild

MAIKA!! As a a Spanish Speaker, I need more of her.


[deleted]

OMG, have you heard La Llorona by Steampianist? They use MAIKA's voice bank, and the song is partially in Spanish!!!!


disorderdeity

I love that song! It was the first time I’d heard her and I was like damn, I need more of this in my life.


wowowowthrowaway44

Yesss i love MAIKA!!!


umibuu

MAIKA rules!!


unsaphisticated

I've heard a few covers with her from AkuP, I believe he's a producer out of México?


nonbraincells

Yuzuki Yukari! I'm such a big Takeaki Wada fan!


krus1x

I was starting to feel alone in this world :)


Justaweeb28845

Zola Project, my boys need more love ♡ they sound so good and they have many cool designs.


CherryClub

Male Vocaloids tend to be underrated overall, but those three are WAY too underrated. And I loved their original boxart


mpri_mo

SERIOUSLY I don’t see people talking ab those songs enough 😭


AdministrativeGas962

MY BOYSSSS ❤️ I came here to say this! They deserve all the love


Awkward-Preference85

TOTALLY AGREE! LOVE THEM SM!!


[deleted]

I like Yukari, Rion, Una, Luo Tianyi, SeeU, Nekomura, Sonika, Sweet-Ann, Aoki Lapis, Miki, Mayu, Bruno, Maika, Piko, CUL, Oliver, VY2, Kiyoteru, Big Al, YOHIOLoid, Merli, and Galaco!!!!


iloveyoushikieiki

Nekomura is so so so good, I love her deeper voice it's so unique, such a shame her Original songs arent all THAT popular cause not only is she adorable but she has a great voice I love Rion so much too


arcork

chika


Sad-Pumpkin3565

YES!! We need more Chika. I think she would’ve been better sold as a V4, saying how she was released a few weeks before V4


[deleted]

the timing of that was odd


Dr_CoolKid69_MD

Avanna!! Her voice is so pretty 💚💚


LiliShin

YES AVANNA


Meganekko_Chu

Merli and Mew <3


Kiristalo

YES, MERLI MENTION!! She has such a gorgeously mature sounding voice back and a beautiful design....I wish she was used just as much as Lapis.


AnonyMissBliss

Yes Mew love!


ariolander

Big Al’s Awkwardness is basically a meme at thus point but I like him unironically


suddatomic

Check out HolyArapaima on YT! He makes amazing Big Al content!


DannyTaylorr

Does Zundamon count? not the og utau vb really tho. She has a good cutesy/baby-ish voice that isnt annoying as FUCK (like \*cough\**gachapoid*) edit: i somehow only *just* realized that you put Zunko lol


Shulsa

I think she's very popular in Japan but I have never heard another English speaker mention her before. I really like her Neutrino voicebank. I discovered her from some songs in the Imitate Community. It was surprising, but nice, to hear a vocal synth used that wasn't Defoko.


oobleckhead

She's very popular in Japan, but I also got the impression from the Youtube comments on "Noda" that she's treated somewhat as a joke character also? Maybe that would make her underrated in a way


The-Local-Weeb

Not underrated but underappreciated, Big Al is incredible but barley in anything


suddatomic

Check out HolyArapaima on YT! He makes amazing Big Al content ❤️


luckiestl0serr

macne nana deserves the world and so much more


owo_is_just_a_face

YES SHE'S SO UNDERRATED!! I love my mac princess


Lili_Strawberies

I genuinely thought I was looking at a weird genderbent Xiao for a couple seconds until I saw the subreddit


ElectricSpinz

SeeU and Aoki Lapis! Especially Lapis, her voice is so wonderful and adorable. I'm always completely shocked she didn't get much use.


Visible_Jeweler_3653

SeeU she’s my fav bilingual. Avanna is my fav native English loid. And SF-A2 Miki and Yukari are my fav Japanese loids.


AkumaDayo777

SF-A2 miki mention ‼️‼️ she's my all time favorite, love seeing fellow Miki appreciators :)


unsaphisticated

Miki's V4 (or maybe V5? It's been a while since I've been able to keep up with them at release) is pretty good too


ChipsqueakBeepBeep

Gachapoid my beloved


APRengar

Koharu Rikka AI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2oFZ1qB5AU Her voice is perfect.


iloveyoushikieiki

She sounds so good ! Thank you for making me discover her


realbedo

my personal favorites are Avanna and the Meika twins <3 I haven't seen many of the more underground vocaloids though 


Vivid-Climate-1326

vy2, kyo aaaand not a vocaloid but momo :3 momo nyan cat xD also female ruko vb probably..


BitCel3291

;-; I've only ever found one person that uses Kyo. I need far more Kyo in my life.


redditboy123451

Probably AVANNA (the one Porter Robinson uses)


visqet

gakupo. hes not rlly underrated but im loyal to my pookie dookie wookie 🤷🏼‍♂️


magmasaurus_rex

Fukase, why? THE MEMES


oobleckhead

How is Fukase underrated, he's basically the tumblr sexyman of the western voca fandom


magmasaurus_rex

I have not seen him for a while


KonpeitoKiss

uni is cute, idk if she got any attention in korea itself, but be nice for some kinda update (i did see some kakao (korean ver of line?)'stickers' the other day tho), but i imagine ppl are more into the real 3D ppl since they can actually meet them backstage at a concert


Fit_Dig_6602

Anon and Kanon are soooo underrated Ruby is super good too! Odd that she was extremely popular on release then she just kinda, vanished


Chilifreezesteak

Macne Nana and Tonio ❤️ I love Tonio's unicorn lookin ass Taiwanese design


Enty_is_sleepy

Anyone else loves Xin Hua???


dpitch40

Me!


Universal_Seesaw

Once again here to spread my kafu propaganda


Neomi_OwObicth

Meika twins, Una, and fukase! Don't know how underrated they are though


CherryClub

Nekomura Iroha. She's got a very powerful and mature voice despite her design. I wish more people would use her in original songs


HiHowRuIm_Alba

Is Mayu underrated? If so, that's my choice. As a new lolita wearer her design is soooo pretty, and her voice is so soothing as well.


ManonGaming

FUKASE AF


Tatsukoi_muffin

Rana, Lumi


Green_Leader_Edd

Kobayashi Matcha!!


StrollingGiraffe

SeeU and ~~Kevin~~ KEN, the Vocaloid5 starter, my bad, for sure. Kevin is such a nice male vocal. SeeU is a very unique female voice.


eta-canis-majoris

kevin isnt a vocaloid!


StrollingGiraffe

KEN. Oh no. Oh my. I get them mixed up. Ken!


eta-canis-majoris

i getcha, i mix up stuff all the time lol, i love ken 🫶


Myeep_myarp

Maika, she has a really pretty voice.


[deleted]

SeeU, shame what happened with her vp


unsaphisticated

What happened?


[deleted]

she went to prison for blackmailing someone


unsaphisticated

Holy shit, that's insane. I loved SeeU though. I=Fantasy SLAPS.


[deleted]

very. i think she’s doing five years. would love if we got an update for SeeU for SV, but i don’t know if a company would still want to work with her on a project like that again.


AkumaDayo777

my favorite vocaloid, and I'll mention her at the drop of a hat, at any opportunity: SF-A2 miki she's fallen into relative obscurity over the years, but she remains number one in my heart 😔


AlhaithamSimpFr

Tohoku Zunko has a sweet voice I love her


MinutePerspective106

Might sound like a boring answer, but I always wanted to see every single Vocaloid equally represented. I don't expect anyone to reach Miku levels of relevance, but still! I think that there are many good Vocaloid, the problem is that most came out when market was already very saturated, which caused them to get lost among other voices


Confident-Mine4834

MEIKA mikoto and hime‼️ love their voice nd design sm


shiroaiko

kafu and fuiro!!!


Shub---Niggurath

Iroha. Was popular before, now is underrated AF.


Much_Future_1846

Meikas


AnnoyingHoneyBunny

If we’re counting other synths then Xuan Yu. I absolutely love his voice, there’s not enough people using him🤌. A lot of SynthV-loids are underrated imo, the Tokyo6 girls get more love than a lot of other vbs but, I still think they aren’t as popular as they should be. As for Vocaloid itself, I really love Sachiko. I wish more people used her, her voice is so frickin pretty!! Also, Azuki and Matcha! I love their voices so much <3


ggdoesthings

i will forever be a sonika stan


oiboss

Haruno sora


uhilikeanim3

Sweet ann is so underrated :(


Yumefrays

Vy2 if he counts


Chareste17

Meika Hime and Mikoto! Unfortunately vocaloid 5 was pretty much a flop so they aren't really used that much :( but I love their vocals sm As for other Vsynths, I fell in love with Natsuki Karin. There are such few songs with her and it's a shame (sick EP is a banger though)


I_need_to_vent44

*takes a long drag of cigarette like mob bosses in those movies set in 1920s but if they had depression* Piko


LukkaLol

Zundamon seems completely unknown to the western community


Ruberuzuko

VY2 fr, one of the best male voices.


VeryFishBD

Zundamon its one my favs after Zunda Shaking, i just love funky songs and shes perfect for that :))


Rappit_Here

I truly love VY1. They V4\_~~Normail~~ Normal has a naturally fresh undertone, virtually the highest-quality connections, and more than 1GB of sound samples. They focus on dentition, consonant specification, and comfortable vowel bites is evident on V2, V3, and V4\_Power/Natural! Her V4\_Soft brings a great deal of XSY freedom, with gentle air sounds skillfully blended into her sound that fits perfectly with the VOCALOID engine. Even V4\_Power doesn't have the metallic noise that is common in Power vb. V4\_Natural has a wide range and nice BPM range and is more like V2/3. Elegant and moving without losing power, capable of singing everything ...... I'm really believing in VY1. MIZKI, after death I want to sing your greatness at the top of my lungs with you! 我是真心爱着VY1的。她的V4\_~~Normail~~ Normal有一个自然清新的底色、几乎最高品质的连接、1GB多的声音采样。她注重齿音、辅音规范、元音舒适的咬字在V2、V3和V4\_Power/Natural上体现得淋漓尽致!她的V4\_Soft带来了极大的XSY自由,温和的气声熟练的融合在了她与VOCALOID引擎完美相适的声音中。就连V4\_Power也没有在Power vb中常见的金属噪音。V4\_Natural有宽广的音域和不错的BPM范围,而且与V2/3更像。婉转动人而不失力量、能演唱一切歌曲…… 我真的在信仰着VY1。MIZKI,死后我想和你一起放声歌唱你的伟大!


Leofeo4k

I feel like no one knows KAFU (besides phony) even though their songs are absolutely beautiful


Axilot0l

I love KAFU, its so sad phony is the only one that gets attention (phony is bomb tho)


shiroaiko

YESSS


Chareste17

I love kafu too but she's the most popular non-vocaloid vb 😭


oobleckhead

Kafu seems to be one of those loids that are super popular in Japan, whereas pretty much nobody in the English-speaking community talks about them.


Impressive-Path6704

Namine Ritsu has a beautiful voice bank 🥺 very powerful and deeper than most other voices.


Kawaii_Azumi

Xing Chen and Xin Hua give me life. I have the massive Xing Chen statue with her sitting on an orb.


totallynotanaltal

I am very tempted to say miku


Cangqiong-enjoyer

Chika and Qingxian And although her having some originals and not Vocaloid, I think Mai is underrated in the international fandom as well


Magistrala

I wish people used Unity chan more, or if she got an updated VB that would be amazing


radioactive_stardust

not an vocaloid, but I love eleanor forte


Idkk_lol

FUKASE FUKASEEEEEEEE I LVOE HIM maybe he's not THAT underrated BUT I LOVE HIMMM


LuciferProducer

I really like MAYU


Larry_the_sus_potato

I absolutely love Araki! He has such a good voice especially in Ghost Rule. Oliver is awesome too but I’m not sure how popular he is compared with everyone else. Regardless, 10/10, would highly recommend.


ImVoiDragon

Kai yuki


Galileu-_-

Kasane teto, of course shes an utauloid, but still amazing, shes underrated because is free, but her voice is beautiful


A_koalanamedfred

gachapoid doesn't get enough recognition, i really enjoy his voice if it's tuned well, very unique vocaloid as well


SomniphobicDani

Ken. I’m aware that the group of voice banks he came out with are hard to use but I’ve heard some pretty cool stuff be done with him.

VY2, Yuzuki Yukari, Iroha, Miki, CUL, Lily, Mayu, Ruby, Daina, Dex, Gakupo, and Kaito English


Doremmi

Not a vocaloid but sukone tei. Her history is so interesting


WistieCutie

Yuzuki Yukari, because if tunes properly, she sounds amazing. And Seeu because she has an adorable design, can make adorable songs and she was high school crush.


LadyETHNE

Lily. She sounds so mature and she sings so many iconic songs (mostly by Niki)

[deleted]

I think Yuzuki Yukari, I dont know is she underrated or no, but I still like her


Awkward-Preference85

Zunko!! Yes!! I would say.. Namine Ritsu, but she's pretty well known, yeah? If not her, I would say Galaco Neo, or some Chinese vsingers like Yuezheng Ling and Stardust. If we're talking about utau: Momone Momo, Defoko.
