I was really happy when Tsunku credited not only Maki but Aya and Sayaka for Love Machine being so successful. He said the latter two had the attitude necessary for the song. That being said I can see those two leaving and 4th gen leaving as the reason why the group become less attitude and more bright and "childish." No way songs like I WISH and The Peace! could have come out if they were still there.

Alright so in my search for vocal synths that share voices with characters from fandoms I'm in, I had an easier time finding Danganronpa voices than anything.
By coincidence I saw today that Tohoku Zunko's VP also voiced my babygirl Yuzuki Mikage from Jigoku Shoujo, but I know I've also ran into over voices I know that weren't from my active fandoms and didn't write down. Like, one shared a voice with DID-misrepresentation queen Shinya Banba but I didn't even take note of who it was.
So, embarrassingly, my findings have been... (Japanese only)
JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE
- LUMi (VOCALOID) & Aya Tsuji (DiU), both voiced by Sayaka Ohara
DANGANRONPA
- Sato Sasara (CeVIO) & Ruruka Ando (DR3), both voiced by Inori Minase
- Suzuki Tsudumi (CeVIO) & Ibuki Mioda (DR2, Stage only), both interpreted by Anju Inami
- Otomachi Una (VOCALOID, VOICEROID) & Himiko Yumeno (DRV3), both voiced by Aimi Tanaka
- Yuzuki Yukari (VOCALOID, VOICEROID, CeVIO) & Hiroko Hagakure (DRAE), both voiced by Chihiro Ishiguro
- Haruno Sora (VOCALOID, VOICEROID, VOICEPEAK, Synthesizer V) & Kirumi Tojo (DRV3), both voiced by Kikuko Inoue
- Hatsune Miku (VOCALOID, Piapro) & Seiko Kimura (DR3), both voiced by Saki Fujita
...Hopefully, I didn't forget anyone. I hope to find more in the future, because it's fun. No guys yet... I think. Basically, if you want to make these characters talk or sing, you can more or less use these voicebanks, though they're not necessarily voice acted in the same way. I know Mcki Robyns-P used this opportunity by making their Himiko Yumeno fansong with Otomachi Una! (They didn't see my cover of their Komaeda fansong with Haruno Sora Lite, so I'm bummed, though... 😔) I don't know if other such voicebanks were used for similar means?
(Off the top of my head, Haruno Sora is the only one of these to have a free (Lite) version. If you also happen to like Jigoku Shoujo, Tohoku Zunko is free on NEUTRINO, I'm pretty sure.)

Kishimon getting all up in the mic screen's business in the recording for Namida no Heroine reminded me of Ishiguro Aya, which is always a good thing

Every now and then I go watch the Love Machine video and it breaks my brain that all the members were so young but had such...spice? Attitude? Ishiguro was the same age as Kitagawa Rio in that video and Ichii was younger than everyone in the group except Ako. Wtf was in the water back in 1999 lol.
