Since Watame's birthday is coming up, I wouldn't be a good Watamate if I didn't do my due diligence and suggest that if you're a fan of hers and are part of her Fan Discord/Watame Club to participate in the community event they're doing. They could use some more submissions. If it was something like last year where you had to record yourself singing part of Ai-Mai Chocolate and saying happy birthday I wouldn't mention it, but it's just writing a little something this time around.

I don't want to do it for privacy reasons, but I am happy to know I won't have work on her birthday. Can watch her stream. Might be wrong, timezones are bullshit.

Forward it to Pippa. I wonder if she will submit something for her oshi (also it seems like a great way to get some exposure if she actually gets picked).
 
In the topic of voice, I'm still curious about how close Gura's voice is to her actual voice. Sure you can tell how much her voice has changed to be more "natural" since her debut, but it's still a little tad high-pitched for me to imagine it coming out of a someone in real life.

The doxx materials we have doesn't help, her voice sounded much deeper in the videos of her supposedly much younger self. I also have some difficulty imagining Gura's voice on the person in the photos we have, especially the one with her wearing glasses.
It's a mic thing, and an acting thing, AND an energy thing. When she's loud or excited Gura sounds like she normally does, but when she's chilling out or tired it's obviously lower than when she's usually 'on' as Gura. When she's just acting normally as Gura it's clear from lots of other videos like the one @masterstocking posted that she's pitching herself up, but it's definitely not to the extent that she needs a filter or anything. Also the mic plays a big part between then and now, as evidenced by watching my fellow Teamates on /vt/ have a meltdown when Ame changed her mic and she sounded noticeably different. There's a lot of factors to consider.

Probably the closest idea of her natural voice you will get.
In case anyone doesn't know, this audio clip was taken from one of her old soundcloud accounts here. Posted in 2013, that would make her just over 15 years old at the time. Also claims she's in 'Canada', but most likely lived in Nantucket as multiple other accounts with location information suggested this as well.
 
Rosemi opening cans is actually painful to watch lmao

The first one was tomato soup that she got all over her desk and keyboard.
