Definitely true - some Vocaloids have been hurt by ToS agreements that make trying to use the VB for commercial stuff a pain in the ass. (I.e. Fukase.)

I've tried more traditional ramen in local restaurants and okonomiyaki at home. I enjoyed them both, but I'm kind of picky with toppings so I usually prefer to make ramen at home, unless the restaurant ramen has stuff I really like on. (Usually either chicken or beef, with an egg and mushrooms...

I'm kind of mixed on these opinions... Vocaloid and other vocal synths will always be associated with technology and the future because of their entire concepts, but at the same time I do wish the fandom would spread outside of anime, EDM and tech nerd circles. I just like variety in the vocal...

1.) The icon for that upload is gold. :ROFL: 2.) I know you admit that this pitched down Kafu is low quality, but you can still tell the devs edited the voice for the final versions. The previous versions of pitched down Kafu didn't have that much engine noise, or that muffled sound.

I do hope Wat is talking about additional VBs for Miku down the line, including perhaps her English and Chinese banks. I'm currently still salty about Solid in particular not being ported to NT lol. Meiko and Kaito being updated first makes sense because their latest versions are still on V3...

Holy crap, if that is true (and I've just noticed the drop in quality too after listening to those videos again), Kafu's bank is actually in a much worse final state than I thought. Yikes!

I agree - if they wanted a cuter version of the real Kaf, the VB should have been recorded that way from the start. Editing the original voice to make it sound cuter just made the final product sound way worse than expected.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aside from otaku types who eat up anything cutesy, doesn't Japanese culture usually discourage direct/harsh criticism (i.e. if they criticise something, they usually do it in a polite way)? Hearing that demo is so disappointing. I've pretty much lost all interest in...

The only VB I can think of that needs improvement right now is Kaito, because I wish he had a Power bank. All he got was two soft VBs and English in V3 in addition to his original bank.

Disappointed to hear her only append banks will be Whisper and Dark (for now, perhaps - is EVEC still a thing in NT?). Solid was one of my favourite append banks because of its power, and I did like Sweet too (unless the new Whisper bank is a repackaged Sweet or Soft). I don't care that Vivid...

Miku looks like she's going to a fancy futuristic dinner party, and I really dig it lol. I'm so glad she doesn't look like she's balding anymore, compared to her V4 design. Keeping the white shirt was a good idea too.

I was just about a drop a post on the Vocamerch thread about that design possibly being the final NT design. It certainly looks like something I'd expect for the final design, since it takes cues from all the official Miku designs we've seen over the years.

I kind of wish we had more voice acted English banks, but I just know they will bomb in sales - typical amateur and professional musicians will be turned off by any unusual-sounding (English) voices, and many vocal synth fans probably wouldn't even buy it to support it.

I really want an English version of Charlie in the future, reading up on what Yamaha want him to be capable of. I just like the idea of an AI trying to cheer me up by telling a dirty joke or swearing. :ROFL: Apparently, some people are already upset that Charlie will essentially be a private...

Aaaaah, this is adorable! It's like having a similar program such as Alexa, Siri or Cortana being able to sing. A few comments on the original video are also wondering if it uses Vocaloid, while also namedropping some banks.

I've already said this in the Discord, but while I am disappointed they won't be using Type A after all, I won't criticise Kaf's decision because it's not my call to make. It's a VB being made with her voice, not mine. Saying that, I do agree that Kafu's announcement and promotion so far have...
