I suppose the current is about as good as you can do for an audio-based trope, but the quality is a bit subpar. Does anyone have a better version?

I don't know that we're going to find a scanlation that is better quality; this is the best I could come up with, and even then there's some pixellation around the translated text.

It makes no sense without context.

It's an auditory trope; why even try to represent it visually in the first place?

"Why bother?" is a non-argument.

Version in 4 works.

The picture in 4 is a confusing mess that adds nothing except making you wonder about the context. It's basically a quote.

So you think the left character looks like a grown man, or would be expected to sound like one?

No, but I can't tell what the character on the right is supposed to be reacting to. Either he has a very strange dialect or his grammar means that something very strange is happening. "What is that grown man's voice?"

I suppose it's better than nothing, though.

I figure the person on the right has just reunited with a long lost friend (the girl) and is surprised at her manly voice?

From the example description: When crossdresser Seiko's voice changes at the end of his second year, he becomes despondent and refuses to wear girls' clothes because his new deep voice doesn't match with a cute appearance. Lucky for him, it was just a cold and his voice went back to its usual higher tone.

There's the pointing, and the special speech bubble. I think that's enough to show that something's going on.

I think eroock's take is about as good as we can do for this. [tup]

Not feeling the current myself.

Going BUPKIS on this.

I think that's 5-1 for the upgrade. Other thoughts or opinions?

BUPKIS. The current is awful and confusing, with badly translated dialogue and medicore art.

I think this is more-or-less an even split. Crowner, maybe?

Votes bump; right now neither option's in consensus range.

Aren't quality upgrades supposed to be free, anyway? The counter-option should be "Keep the current".
