This is an area of fandom I know that I am out of touch with (apologies !vocaloid@ani.social). However, I am glad to see that things like this are managing to find an audience outside Japan. For example, there was a good while where I thought Hatsune Miku was just a character that was created for anime figures and that was it.

  I mean, as someone who listens to vocaloid artists every so often, the merch is the real money maker.

  Like @ReluctantZen@ani.social says, can confirm that Miku merch sells like crazy.
  
  Even if I’m not familiar with any of her songs besides her cover of Ievan Polkka
