New year, but still working on new chapters despite the story taking place in the fall season. In the meantime, here's a little audio conversation between Mai and Hikari, I don't know how good the voices are in different languages but I think it sounds cute: https://voca.ro/15u6NLkq0bea

ooo, i have not seen that UCC blended coffee before... i have a sangaria can that sounds similar to the one you described, amusingly the brand name is "Quality Coffee", the kind of name that would be guaranteed cheap junk if it was an american product

Seems to be separate from their main "Quality Coffee" series, and I never saw it in Japan. According to this page it has a coconut sub-flavour, which I definitely never noticed.

Hard to tell based on my destroyed post-COVID tastebuds, but I think the UCC Blend is quite a bit better than the Sangaria. Although I can't ignore the possibility that the can's colour/design is playing a major role in this judgment.

Also I'd like to take this opportunity to admit that it took me about four months of living in Japan before I realized that カフェオレ meant "Café au lait" and not the phrase I kept saying in my head: "Café, olé!"

New Review (and definitely the last for the year this time) by Skep who was determined to have the last say! It's Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy, set in the STAR WARS universe. Happy New Year Everyone!

I am not too familiar with newer Star Wars things, but the original three films, the Ewoks cartoon, and that tough-as-nails SNES game are classic to me. This series seems far back enough to still hold some of that magic, despite any failings in storyline. Thanks skep and everyone at Reading Project! Happy New Year y'all!

I never expected to see a Star Wars title on The Reading Project. A good end to the year.

The Phantom Menace Shakespeare spoof? It was reviewed before I created my site, and I tend not to pay much attention to parody/humour related works. I read Tom Holt's An Orc on the Wild Side a few years back and found it wasn't my cup of tea... I don't read Terry Prachett for the same reason.

It is cute. Where do you get these voices?
ElevenLabs. The V2 voices are more experssive and support mutliple languages. I would love to use real voices sometime. Maybe for some kind of audiobook whenever I finish the story in full.
I don't know but I really do feel like Mai's and Hikari's voice are spot on to what I think they should sound like. Everyone else is so-so.
I'm trying out ElevenLabs for the first time rn. It's insaaaane how many credits you use for one minute of generation, but am I wrong or does voice-changing not cost credits? Because that'd be reallyyyyy cool. A paragraph I did changing my own voice came out as good or better than the voice generator.
Yeah. It's expensive. I usually have to wait a month for the credits to restart before I can do additional voices. I don't subscribe for that reason alone.
