Big Order Made Shorter (Abridged Series)
Project Overview
Big Order Made Shorter is an Abridged Series of the almost universally community panned 2016 anime Big Order. It may be tipping my hand a bit to refer to it as that, but this anime is not that good, but it holds a rather large amount of potential. Potential for Ridicule that is.
I, Cevian, as part of the Abridging Group AnUntitledAbridger ( https://www.youtube.com/user/AnUntitledAbridger/featured )have taken up this task and have written a script for this abridged. That's not "I've written an episode and we'll do this slowly." No. The whole thing is written. All 10 episodes. We are planning for a fixed release schedule later this year so, if you are accepted then there will be a rather short one-time line turnaround and then the project will go in to full production and then be done, as opposed to reoccurring roles over a long period of time.
Most of the parts required are rather short in scale. There are several characters that only get a line at most in this abridged series, but there are a few major characters that still need to be cast.
This needs a good quality microphone and recording.
Thank you for considering this project and I hope to see some auditions too.
Disclaimer: This series is a bit ecchi in nature and, while there will be no full nudity (as that is against YouTube's ToS) in the final version, it is still that kind of show. The script also contains occasional cursing.

Sorry for taking so long to get to things. Life has been busier than expected. We've filled a few roles but there's some we still want a few more options on, and a couple that haven't gotten any auditions at all, so the Deadline for them is now extended by two weeks. Just because a role you're applied for hasn't been cast yet that doesn't mean that you've not been cast. We're just looking for some more options.

Getting Back To People
Apologies for not getting back to the people that have already submitted Auditions with feedback. My free time hasn't been what I was expected it to be as of recent so I've not really had time to dive in to all of the auditions. Once again, thank you to everyone that has auditioned! -
Added a New Rolw
I totally left out an important character while making sure I had all of the people with only one line. Sorry for that. I'm not the best at this kind of thing. Thanks for all of the auditions so far!
Daisy is a humanoid interface for a Supercomputer that can grant people's wishes. She needs to sound relatively devoid of emotions except for an underlying tone of smugness. What she says is matter of fact and simultaneously vague.
Hoshimiya Eiji. One day the truth will set you free from what binds you.
Do not worry. That is not an enemy Stand.
Every wish is an effortless delusion one wants to impress on the world.
Iyo is a shy shrine maiden who has the ability to have a magical UFO give her slips of paper with what will happen in the future written on it. Said paper once told her that the main character was going to marry her one day, which gives her the confidence to go after him. The character goes from being rather reserved to emotional at times such as when her frustration reaches a tipping point. Her voice needs to be relatively calm and respectful at default.
Congratulations!
(Embarrassed, labored) Eiji-sama. I’m about to give birth.
(Thinking, excited) The first step is Hand Holding… I hope I’m not being too forward…
The Main Character's Little Sister. She's probably about 15 given how the time span works but since she's been bedridden with Super Cancer for about a decade she looks a bit younger. She's a nice, naive little girl that is secretly super intelligent, manipulating and low-key evil. This role requires someone that can make a cute little girl sound ominous.
I’d wish for you and me and mom and dad to be able to live together forever!
Onii-chan… Am I going to die soon?
I’m going to die soon anyway, so I don’t care if they kill me. But I can still hope that I’ll keep on living. “Hope, in its stronger forms, is a great deal more powerful stimulans to life than any sort of realized joy can ever be.”
Mari is a serious trained strategist that is a part of the Dazaifu's Group of Ten. She is loyal to her leader and is prone to not respecting the authority of the main character. She has the ability to shoot laser beams. Her voice needs to be stern but able to relax once things become less uptight.
Congratulations!
My glasses! I can't aim without my glasses!
(Angry) I said shut up. I’m a trained strategist. No idea you have could possibly be better than one I make
Loosely dressed Shrine Maiden. Eats rocks and has a generally laid back personality, except for when she get's angry.
(running) That’s what will happen when the UN’s nuke gets here.
Good luck with that whole immortality thing when you’re a statue.
Actually, making sure you can’t run away was a really good idea, Hoshimiya Eiji.
Kamimusubi is a priestess that briefly spends some time making the Main Character, Hoshimiya Eiji, and one of his love interests, Iyo, play a ball game to make their relationship stronger. She needs to speak casually but with at least some authority.
Oblivious guy. Shy girl. One forever oblivious because if he wasn’t the rating would be too high. And the other fed up just enough with that obliviousness that her efforts will keep the rating from being too low.
Congratulations on passing the challenge.
-Screams while being cut in half.-
That's literally her only line in the whole script. She's like, a girl. All I need is a spare female congratulations.
Congratulations!
Hiiragi most of the time. Hiiragi is a man that has been coldly calculating a plan over the course of several years but, as things get tense, he's not adverse to snapping out at people. His voice needs to have authority warranting someone that is looked up to. Mid ranged. Kinda Bishounen
Congratulations!
-Maniacal Laughter.-
To start the Second Big Impact, Gennai needs to kill the shrine maidens protecting this reverse pentagram. It intersects with this ley line. Both of these together will allow him to open up a pathway to the Dirac Sea.
The Prime Minster of Japan. Not a nice person. A politician that comes off as an incompetent fool that just plays Mahjong all day but is actually ruthless and calculating. Mid to Deep.
So we rounded up all of your families to kill them in front of you.
Well you see, 10 years ago someone had to almost destroy the world, so sometime afterwards, how would you put it? Our morality got a little inverted.
Moshi Moshi Prime Minister Desu!
He's a barely reoccurring antagonist. Only looking for Shrek Impersonation for him. No, not aaaaaalllll of his lines are about layers.
Attack Plans are like Onions: They have layers.
That coulda killed me. Thankfully I’m made of layers of Ogres.
(offscreen, hurt) I’ve got layers of pain.
Ayahito is an all around nice guy who has an upbeat attitude that kinda gets in your nerves. It probably comes with the teeth. Mid Range. Kinda Bishounen.
*Say something you think would fit*
Smug, but without a lot to actually back up his bravado. Works for the main bad guy. All around a pretty scummy and manipulative guy. Mid-ranged.
You looked troubled, young lady. Let me help you help me.
Tactical Retreat!
I just used that truth to set her free.
Taikei is an older gentleman that barely gets any lines. Needs to sound serious. Mid to Deep.
Congratulations!
I’ll handle this.
Abraham is a man that is certain of himself and of Time, which he says a lot. With Emphasis. every time. Mid to Deep Range
You’ve run out of Time, Hoshimiya Eiji. I’m placing you under arrest for the Time you attempted to destroy the world.
Congratulations!
(Thinking) Looks like my Time’s up.
Older guy. Wears a mask. Needs to sound commanding since he only ever gives commands. Mid to Deep.
Congratulations!
All Aggressive Actions are now forbidden!
He can fly. He only has the one line. Mid to High.
Congratulations!
His head is a tree or something. Only has the one line. Deep Voice.
Congratulations!
Mari's litter brother. Watches a guy get executed, almost gets executed himself, and then NEVER SHOWS UP AGAIN.
-weak screams of terror as blood from the person next to him hits him.-
