So...

AI Otomachi Una is a thing.

So...

I'm debating over whether or not to get her.

Pros:

She's cute. She sparks joy.

Her updated Sugar voicebank honestly sounds really good.

Since she has two cross-lingual voicebanks, I might be more motivated to practice using XSyn. I love GUMI V4, but copy/pasting Japanese syllables from Wikipedia to make song lyrics is painful. (Is there any way to make this process quicker?)

GUMI will have a friend that isn't one of the standard Yamaha voices.

She'd be the first non-adult voice in my (admittedly very small) arsenal, adding a bit of variety to the lineup.

This will show Internet Co. that their products are wanted. With enough interest in/purchases of their V6 voicebanks, maybe more of their characters will get updates. That's a big maybe, but never say never.

Cons:

She's freaking expensive ($138 US before tax).

Her updated Spicy voicebank is kind of underwhelming.

I love playing around with tuning/making covers privately, but I haven't had the courage to actually upload anything to the internet; in this sense, it might just seem like an expensive waste of time.

The whole "interest in Internet Co.'s stuff" thing outlined above isn't guaranteed to work.

So with all that said, I'm tossing this decision to a third party since I'm super indecisive.
