り is high, but が isn't high, but in the video, the diagram shows that が is high too.

I'm sorry about this.

Hi, Welcome to Speak Japanese Naturally
Here's a video on Japanese vowel devoicing!
If you can do this, you sound much more natural.
That's another key to making you sound like a Japanese person other than pitch accent.
00:00 Introduction
00:41 What's devoicing?
01:04 Voiced sounds vs Unvoiced sounds
02:47 When Does it occur?
04:00 (1) I and u in between unvoiced consonants
07:52 (2) Desu and masu at the end of a sentence
09:21 (3) Sometimes a and o after an unvoiced consonant at the beginning of a sentence except for atamadaka words
11:40 (4) Sometimes i and u after an unvoiced consonant at the end of a sentence
If this feels too much, just devoice su of desu and masu!
Enjoy 😊
This video is made by Fumi from Speak Japanese Naturally.
I usually make videos about the Japanese pitch accent.
Japanese is a pitch accent language, so you should imitate the pitch when you practice speaking!
That will help you sound more natural. This channel deals with the Kanto(Tokyo) dialect, which is also standard Japanese and is used in most textbooks and national broadcasts.
