VOCALOMAKETS, the creator of Yuzuki Yukari, and AHS Co., Ltd announced a new VOICEROID2 bank by the name of Kizuna Akari! Letâs break down what we currently know about her:Â
Name: Kizuna Akari (Japanese: çŽČæ ăăă or çŽČæ çŻ)
Height: 151cm (about 5 ft)
Official Illustrator: Juu Ayakura
Akariâs surname, âKizunaâ (çŽČ), literally means âbondsâ or âconnections,â much like Yukariâs name. However, the way that it is written as her surname literally means âconnecting starsâ (çŽČæ). Meanwhile, her given name, âAkariâ (çŻ), literally means âlightâ or âilluminationâ. While Yukari is themed around the moon, Akari is themed around stars, continuing the trend of celestial body motifs for VOCALOMAKETS characters.
VOCALOMAKETS explained on their official blog that her name is meant to mean âçžă§ç”ă°ăăäșșéïŒæïŒăšăźçŽČăçŻă§ç
§ăă (En de musubareta hito-tachi (hoshi) to no kizuna o akari de terasu)â, which translates to âUsing light to illuminate the bonds between people (stars) who are connected through fate.âÂ
To make this a little easier for English speakers, VOCALOMAKETS shortened the official English motto for Kizuna to:Â âShe illuminates you all with her voice.â
Those who want to know what Kizuna sounds like can head over to her product page and try out the demo!Â
Kizuna will be released on December 22nd in digital and physical forms.Â
Because she is usable with the VOICEROID2 editor, you can edit each individual sentence however you like, and even have her interact with other VOICEROID-compatible products, such as Tohoku Kiritan, Kotonoha Aoi and Akane, Tsurumaki Maki, and more.
Furthermore, âVOICEROID2 Kizuna Akariâ will come bundled with the music creation software, âMusic Maker Silver,â the character animation software, âCharamin Studio (90-day Trial Version),â and the video editor, âVideo Easy SE.ââŠ
The VOICEROID is available for pre-order at the AHS Store forÂ ïż„11,858 JPY (~$105 USD). Those who already own an AHS product and are registered members on the AHS community website will receive a discount. The reduced price Kizuna can be pre-ordered at AHSâs Store forÂ ïż„10,778 JPY (~$96 USD).Â
On December 22nd, AHS will also release another product named âexVOICE Kizuna Akari vol.1â, which is a collection of 1021 voice samples for Akari! These can be used for creations with the VOICEROID and commercial use. The price for this isÂ ïż„1,980 JPY (~$18 USD).Â
And to wrap this all up, VOCALOMAKETS added that Kizuna will be made into a VOCALOID! Once that happens, they will announce who the voice provider is. It is currently not known when her VOCALOID bank will be finished.Â
