Are you ready, Robo-Dog?

Robo-Dog

Woof!

4
Character icon
Rui

Ah, good. You're responding well to vocal input.

5
Character icon
Tsukasa's Voice

Hey, Rui, we're here!

6
Character icon
Rui

Ah, welcome.

Please, come inside.

7
Character icon
Tsukasa's Voice

Alright, pardon us.

8
Character icon
Emu

Pardon us... Whoa!

9
Character icon
Nene

Huh...? Th-This room...

10
Character icon
Emu

Wait, why's all this stuff split into two different piles?

11
Character icon
Tsukasa

Tell us, Rui! What's going on here?!

12
Character icon
Rui

Ah, please try to ignore those.

I was in the middle of doing some cleaning.

13
Character icon
Nene

This mess is from you cleaning...?

14
Character icon
Tsukasa

Don't tell me...

You were trying to decide what to keep and what to throw out.

15
Character icon
Rui

Correct! That's astounding, Tsukasa!

16
Character icon
Rui

After all, the best way to clean your room is by removing anything you don't actually need!

17
Character icon
Tsukasa

You're not wrong, but...

18
Character icon
Rui

More importantly, look!

Today, I'd like for you all to meet Robo-Dog!

19
Character icon
Robo-Dog

Woof!

20
Character icon
Emu

Oh, he's adorable...!

21
Character icon
Emu

Hello, Robo-Dog♪

22
Character icon
Robo-Dog

Woof!

23
Character icon
Nene

Oh, he sat down! And he's wagging his tail!

24
Character icon
Tsukasa

Whoa! Not only does he look like a real dog, he even moves and behaves like one!

25
Character icon
Rui

Hehe. Good, right?

I've been going to the park recently to research how real dogs move and behave!

26
Character icon
Nene

Wait, did you upgrade that robot you made a really long time ago...?

27
Character icon
Rui

You remembered?

Yes, that's right!

28
Character icon
Rui

I just happened to come across him while cleaning my room.

29
Character icon
Rui

Then, I thought the joints I used for Robo-Phoenix would allow Robo-Dog to move a little smoother!

30
Character icon
Rui

Hehe. I ended up staying up very late working on him.

31
Character icon
Nene

And that's why you stopped cleaning partway through...

32
Character icon
Robo-Dog

Woof!

33
Character icon
Emu

Oh, look! He's scratching his head with his hind leg!

34
Character icon
Nene

Yeah, like a real dog.

35
Character icon
Tsukasa

But he only seems to be able to bark in a couple different ways...

36
Character icon
Rui

I've also been working on that.

37
Character icon
Rui

I want voice clips that are imbued with emotion, but there's only so much freeware available to me...

38
Character icon
Rui

Actually, would you all mind if I took some samples of your voices?

39
Character icon
Tsukasa

Wait, do you mean you want us to bark like dogs...?

40
Character icon
Nene

He doesn't “want” us to. He expects us to...

41
Character icon
Tsukasa

Yes, it's written all over his face.

42
Character icon
Emu

Yip! Yip, yip! Yip!

43
Character icon
Tsukasa

She's gone straight into the deep end...

44
Character icon
Nene

But it's impressive how you can just tell she's inviting us to join her...

45
Character icon
Rui

Ah, Emu, that's excellent!

You're oozing with animal spirit!

46
Character icon
Rui

Now, Tsukasa, Nene, if you would.

I'm sure this will help when you need to play dogs in future performances!

47
Character icon
Tsukasa

That's never going to happen! No, I can't say that with any certainty... If anything, there's probably a strong likelihood that I will!

48
Character icon
Nene

Yeah, true.

49
Character icon
Tsukasa

Alright, I'll just have to do my best!

50
Character icon
Tsukasa

Boof! Boof, boof!

No, that sounds too deep for Robo-Dog...

51
Character icon
Nene

Right.

Small dogs are a little more high pitch...

52
Character icon
Nene

Woof! Woof! Woof!

*Whimper*

53
Character icon
Rui

Oh, that was...!

54
Character icon
Emu

Nene, your dog impression's really cute!

55
Character icon
Tsukasa

Well done, Nene!

Alright, let me try that again...!

56
Character icon
Tsukasa

Woof! Pant...! Pant...!

57
Character icon
Rui

Alright, it wouldn't be fair for me to do nothing. Let me also give it a try.

58
Character icon
Rui

*Whimper*

Arf... Hm...?

59
Character icon
Nene

I don't think dogs are supposed to be so in-your-face...
