Wiki Wednesday #389 - Carot_p's ZERO

 This actually should be over on Forgotten Friday, but because the wiki page was created in 2021, it snuck into here!

Wiki Wednesday #389 - Carot_p's ZERO

ZERO was a weapon, but then he was rebuilt. He used to have super speed and blasters, but no one knows yet what powers he has now. Was he recreated for peace? We he simply recreated to sow destruction? We do not know.

Forgotten Friday #398 - 芳醇音ウラ / Ura Houjunne

 From a preservation standpoint, it is a little sad when all previous banks are deleted upon the release of the most recent. From a "I am a completionist" standpoint, at least it makes writing articles easier!

Whoo...

Forgotten Friday #397 - 淡水ウパ / Awami Upa

Totally unrelated to Upa, I am now one of those people who says "Microslop". However, I am also someone who refuses to use UTAU banks in anything other than UTAU, so here I am in a virtual machine that crashed so bad I had to sit through Windows 'repairing my computer' because Windows Update thought that ten gigabytes of RAM was an affront to life itself.

AND it happened again. Thanks, Microslop.

Anyway, Upa is an energetic teen girl who loves fish and eels.

Forgotten Friday #396 - Peachbite's Uotan / 魚短

I have a keyboard now! I've always had a keyboard, but now the keyboard is just more necessary after becoming a Linux Girl. Anyway! I have no idea if Uotan is a fish or just a teenage girl who is obsessed with fish. She hates penguins because they eat fish and she hates dolphins for pretending to be fish. But, you know. the definition of fish is sufficiently vague that you and I could be fish.

 If one was not aware that I write like three articles in quick succession, they would likely be concerned that my shoulder is still hurting. 

Wiki Wednesday #268 - Hoshi Tsukine / ホシ月音

The voice provider of Hoshi is Estonian. This led me to look and see if I could find a pronunciation dictionary for Estonian to see if it would be easy peasy to make a Diffsinger phonemizer or not. I believe... There is no ready to use dictionary, but there is a functioning G2P which could be used to make the dictionary without input from a native speaker. Anyway!

Hoshi was a spaceship who crashed on Mars. She was then turned into a robot that looks like a small child.
