Over the last few days, we've had a little bit of coverage on "SF-A2 Kaihatsu Code Miki", a singing CHRISTMASLOID based on Furukawa Miki's voice [link] and the pair of cute little text-to-speech synthesis releases, the VOICEROIDS Tsukuyomi Ai and Shota [link ai - link shota]. This is a pretty busy little software company, isn't it? There are two more releases it's planning this year for a total of five!

One is Kaai Yuki [link], a middle-school student. Unlike Miki, she isn't designed with the usual VOCALOID2 cyberpunk characteristics; she's dressed just like a normal student would, and if you listen to her voice samples, she really sounds the part! She has a very raw little voice. I also like that her design isn't rail-thin; rock those curves, Yukitan!!!

Next, and I'm sure this will stir up some excitement for the man-hungry Vocaloid community who base their judgements entirely on gender *dodges vegetables* is Hiyama Kiyoteru, [link] a male twentysomething schoolteacher with glasses. He's got a little headset going on there, but otherwise he looks like he could have just stumbled out of the teacher's lounge. His design is a little cute, right? His voice sounds frighteningly similar to KAITO's-- I'm sure I'll be able to tell the difference after hearing it a bit (and it's certainly much more advanced and clear than poor KAITO's) but it's a very similar sound!

I'm looking forward to all these new releases, and don't forget that POWER-FX is planning to release the verrrrrrry manly Big Al in a very short time! So many new additions to the VOCALOID family; I wonder how this will shape the fandom?

What are your thoughts on the new characters? The voices? Go ahead and discuss!

shareicons
We are a new graphics community - with a slight difference.

I don't know about you but I'm fed up with spending hours searching through communities trying to find the perfect icon and getting nowhere with it. To hopefully help with that, every single icon posted in shareicons will be tagged. And don't worry icon makers - I'll tag them for you so it won't take you any extra time.

Graphics makers, we'd love for you to come and post your stuff over at shareicons! We're not just for icons, we're for banners, layouts, icon making guides, textures and all other resources as well.

We're also looking for sister communities :)

The fic I'm looking for is actually a sequel to this story..
The first story is actually when Sasuke doesn't wanna kill his brother anymore and then Sakura and Sasuke puts on a disguise of new Akatsuki members. In the end, they all found out when Sasuke revealed his sharingan in the 'Test' fight between him and Itachi.
Then they all worked together to kill Pein, the leader of the Akatsuki. I don't know about the rest.

The sequel is about Sakura being sent off training with the Sand Siblings for 3 or 4 years. And when she come's back a day after Naruto's birthday, Sasuke practically loses his memories and threatens to kill her.

I actually read the story already, but I'd forgotten to put this as favourite.
