David's changes: voice sped to 1.05x with the tone preserved (atempo, no chipmunk), and timing from whisperX large-v3 for precise word-to-animation mapping. Same visuals as V1, just snappier and tighter. Compare against V1 at mg-bend-v2.pages.dev.
Same edit as V1 part 2, run at 1.05x. Tell David if this speed feels right before the rest are converted.
More V2 parts land here. Pick V1 or V2 speed and the rest get built in the winner.
