Ryu Female voice for swaps V3 (Human VA)

This is a new version of my Female Ryu voice mod for character swaps. This version loses the AI voices. This has been completely redone using a Japanese voice actress, @yukky_jp_actor.

The original version was created using Eleven Labs. I ran a video of all Ryu voice clips through EL. For V2, I swapped the main callouts such as "Hadoken" with the female World Tour Avatar voice for a slightly better sound, but it was not as good as in-game. In V3, I wanted it to be on par with in-game. Even a "good" AI voice is going to lack the ability to emote as needed. I got in contact with the VA, and felt she could do "SF6 Ryu as a woman" and compensated her for her talents.

To create this version, the VA was given a Japanese manuscript for most of Ryu's sayings in SF6, and I included sayings from SF5. The VA made two videos of her lines. Lines from the manuscript read as she interpreted them, and a recreation of the full voice clip video with her trying to recreate his voices. With this, I had two choices for a lot of the sounds; either the manuscript version or the video version. I mostly used the manuscript versions and used the video voices to fill out the voice clips if they weren't accounted for in the script.

An example of using the video version, is "Shinkuu Hadoken". in the script version, she says it forecfully, but in a shorter burst than in the game, so it doesn't line up. In the video version, she says it in his speed, which lines-up with the animation.

For example of the opposite, when Ryu does a Perfect Parry, one of the lines is "Torimasen yo". In the video version, she says it the way Ryu does, but in the script version, it has more of a Japanese female snark tone, so I chose the manuscript version for flavor. I also chose to change some things, such as I bringing back "CHESTOOO!" from the SF5 EX Donkey Kick, making it onto H Donkey Kick, and since the VA read the name of the Donkey Kick "Joudan Sokutogei" from the script (was only referencing the move name, not suposed to be read as a line), I used it for the M donkey kick. I swapped out "Yoshi Ikou" from the char select with "Tatakai no saki" from SF5, and a couple of other things.

The idea is that it sounds like "SF6 Ryu as a woman." I chose the VA based on that. The voice fits my "Juryu EX" and especially the "UMA Hoodie Juri" swaps perfectly. And Ideally, I may make or have made a bespoke female Ryu model, and this will fit that as well. If you want it cute or girly, then wait for Sakura to release, or use the Sakura-to-Ryu voice replacer on Nexus.

If you are going to inquire about doing one for any other characters or even Ryu English, there are a couple things to consider:

1. I likely won't do it. The process of cutting lines, getting them where they need to be, and trying to normalize volumes is more than tedious.

2. It won't be free. Even if I used Eleven Labs for your re
