Am I imagining things or Google’s default Japanese text-to-speech voice got upgraded?

Like in Google translate etc. To me it sounds more natural and realistic than before, but I don’t really speak the language. Can someone comment on how good the pronunciation is? (like in terms of pitch accent etc.)

This can potentially become a game changer for making Anki cards because until now the voices they were offering (at least the free ones) weren’t great. (For those who don’t know, you can add audio in Anki with AwesomeTTS plugin.)

Edit: turns out there is a way to integrate MS Edge’s excellent TTS into anki https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/guide-using-microsoft-edge-tts-in-anki-card-template/40463/2
