A Liminal Goblin Encounters vocaloid

What follows about vocaloid is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

Goblin peer review of the vocaloid hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
