Namine Ritsu (波音リツ), originally a UTAU, is a Japanese vocal for the DeepVocal engine (though they[3] were announced for the Sharpkey engine).

History[]

In the wake of the first successful troll, Kasane Teto from the "Vippers" (Vip News Bulletin@2ch users), annual fake VOCALOIDs developed by "Crvpton" were developed by the same bulletin board, though with noticeably less serious intentions. Namine Ritsu was first released for the UTAU synthesis engine on October 12th, 2009.[4]

In 2018, a placeholder button was added to Ritsu's voicebank list.[5] Leaving users questioning the possibility of a new voicebank. The website was updated with information about a potential Sharpkey voicebank.[6] Canon mentioned on twitter that the Sharpkey voicebank was finished on October, 2018 but wasn't realeased due to circumstances.[7]

On October 9, 2019, Canon released Ritsu's DeepVocal bank.

Concept[]

Ritsu is a 6 year old okama and a bully whose favorite tactic is purple nurples. They enjoy Choco Krispies and chinese cabbage, with the latter being their official "character item". Despite being assumed Japanese, they are misanthropic and loves North Korea, while disliking Japan.[8]

Etymology[]

  • 波音=Wave Sound
  • リツ=Pitch, Rhythm, Principle - Also presumably the converse of tsuri (つり, literally fishing, slang for prank or baiting someone)

Appearance[]

Ritsu has flaming red hair and a purple top hat with a small veil. Their eyes are dark purple that fade into canary, that match their violet headset with orange illuminations. Ritsu has a bustline but is shrewdly covered by the upper wear with no exposed cleavage. The official explanation for this is that missiles were built into Ritsu's torso, not a padded bra as some fans speculate. This also explains why they weigh 25 tons. They also have a set of circle rainbow-colored keyboards around them.
