Secret Voice
XX Accent Core Plus
The following is a transcript of Inoue's "Secret Voice" message found in Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus and Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R (fan translated)[1][2]
- I’m Kikuko Inoue, the person inside I-No, and I’m 17 years old.
- Oh, who am I kidding here? Putting the nonsense aside, I really enjoyed playing I-No, although she’s a pretty scary character, because I often get the opportunity to see lots of people who play Guilty Gear.
- I hope more and more people will play I-No to kick their opponents’ butts.
- Thank you so much to all the fans who have played I-No!
- Alright, I guess next is “Relay-style questionnaire section”…
(From Manami Komori)
- Hello, Kikuko. This is Manami Mori. How have you been?
- There’re lots of things that I want to ask you, but here is one of the best things…
- Ah, I love the way you improvise songs, and I’m sure all of the fans would love to hear it too, so could you try and improvise a song that expresses how was it like to play I-No?
- Oh my Goooood, did you just hear how cute Manami sounded?
- Hearing Manami ask me to sing with that pretty voice of her’s makes me so happy!
- Ahhhh thanks for the request!
- Alright so… All I need to do is improvise a song to express what it was like to play I-No, right? Alright, here goes.
- Hmm, what kind of rhythm should it go with…?
- (Starts humming)
- My name is Kikuko Inoue~.
- What I play for Guilty is I-No~.
- It’s pretty close to my name~
- Pretty close~.
- But, our personalities are quite different~
- I-No is pretty scary~
- Hey! (laughs)
- Alright (laughs), so there you have it (laughs). I’m sorry it didn’t have a perfect ending…
- So, I guess it’s my turn to ask the next person a question. Hm, let’s see…
- Alright, here’s a question to the next person, Jouji Nakata. Ehhhh… ahhhhh…
- Ah, my favorite food is ramen, so do you happen to know any good ramen restaurants?
- If you don’t know… Then please just disregard this question (laughs).
- But if you do know any, please tell me. Ahhhh I don’t even know if Jouji likes ramen or not, and yet this is the question for him… I’m sorry. I hope he likes ramen too.
- Alright, I guess it’s time to wrap it up with I-No’s voice. Wow, it’s pretty nerve-wracking to shift myself to I-No like this (laughs). I need to turn on my switch, and… okay.
- I’ll satisfy your burning desires to a climax with my body. <3
- So, for all the I-No players out there, keep up the good work, and don’t lose to other strong characters!
- Once again, this is Kikuko Inoue, the person inside I-No.
- I’m looking forward to seeing you all again soon. Good bye!

- This is Kikuko Inoue, the voice of I-No! 17 years old. C'mon now... Boy I-No is quite some character, isn't she? At times very cool, and at times very cute...
- But, she can go pretty dark and evil, or sexy and cool. Every time I act her, it's like...
- It's like storm and drama in my voice! But make no mistake, I've given this character every bit of acting talent I have.
- So, that sums up this character in a nutshell. I hope everyone continues to enjoy this game, and this character. Looking forward to all your support!
Consumer
- This is Kikuko Inoue, the voice of I-No! 17 years old... I mean, really!? And so, I want to congratulate you on completing the game.
- I personally thought the game was quite enjoyable this time around. And... Unfortunately for all the I-No lovers, her scenes were few and far between this time,
- but we did get to see her candid smile in the very end, so I look forward to everything that's about to come in her future.
- On a side note, I- No has an extremely wide range of character, which makes my job really fun.
- Every time I step into the booth, I can't wait to explore a different side of her.
- Please look forward to I-No's many more faces that are sure to come in the future of Guilty Gear. Enjoy! Thank you very much!
