I want to remake this one someday too, but lowkey I am too emotionally attached to this version to retire it. I was very proud of this back when I was 19 years old. I'm pretty sure the breath files were Miku V4's for Eleanor, but I can't remember. Funnily enough, all these years later and I'm finally going to see the actual musical in person this summer! Woo woo!
