I just hooked it up to my personal AI Japanese Teacher app, pretty good quality / natural sounding speech in mixed English / Japanese while running fast on CPU so I don't waste VRAM.

For Japanese TTS, AivisSpeech-Engine[1] works really well with mixed Japanese/English text in my experience. They also provide container images on ghcr.io for both CPU and GPU inference.

Was just thinking of making exactly that. I have made Kokoro the voice of my local LLM (qwen 3.6). What do you use for a Japanese tutor app?
