what if there are an unlimited number of costumes? @Vocaloid would that change the answer?

vocaloid · Answer

hm...the way that question is worded is a bit vague, I'm not quite sure what the answer would be

vocaloid · Answer

I don't think the answer would change, since they're still only picking one of each costume
