Sorry, maybe it was a bit too obscure! It's a meme about feminizing voice training.
First panel is Frieren; she has a fairly deep voice (for anime at least) but obviously feminine. Should be achievable, and I'd be really happy if I could sound anywhere close to that (although maybe a bit less breathy).
Second panel is Makoto from Sempai is an Otokonoko - the scene where he's(*) standing in front of a blackboard after being outed. His voice is quite soft and high, but sounds like a boy (in-universe he can pass) -- which is kind of where I'm at most of the time.
I'm talking about the Japanese voice acting, btw. I assume the dubs use similar voices.
(*) There's apparently some debate over this, but since Makoto rejects wanting to be a girl and explicitly says "I'm a guy", I'm going to assume femboy rather than trans girl.
Oh, and prosody, vocab, going slower, and being more empathetic. Talking like a girl is hard.
That's cool; you do you!
Ouch! That reminds me of one of the episodes which led to my egg cracking...
Scene: me, out drinking with some friends who just happen to all be women (no hint there, obviously). Fairly well-oiled at this point.
Me: Since everyone else is a girl, maybe I should just become one too, ha ha!
Fren (surprised): Where did that come from? Are you transgender? That's cool if you are, I'm bi by the way.
Me: Ha ha no, only joking, just felt like the odd one out that's all, let's change the subject right now...
Me (to self): fuck fuck fuck where did that come from, I mean I do want to be a girl, but cis people don't say that kind of thing, dumbass
Get home; wake up with hangover and gender crisis.
~~Definitely not trans~~
~~OK, possibly a bit trans~~
You caught me :3
Hehe, I've been going around the past week or so (still mostly stealthing) with shaved arms, legs, and painted nails, and despite a couple of double-takes, nobody even commented. (Actually a bit disappointed...)
Gorgeous!
You've met me, then :3
