Thank you!
A huge thank you to everyone who auditioned! Casting is complete, but I truly appreciate each of your auditions. While I do want to keep the group relatively small, there may be new opportunities down the road, so stay tuned for that!
A Blue Archive spin-off manga that features Momoi, Midori, Yuzu, and Aris from the Game Development Department and their antics. It's filled with heartwarming, cute, and comedic moments.
Here's the manga if you need references or context for the stories. It'll also be better than me trying to explain what emotion I want for the lines

I wrote brief descriptions of each character and their personalities, but I'm not the greatest at explaining, so if you have directions on how you think it'll work better, go for it.
Most of the characters from chapter 1 will mostly be side characters initially as the leading forces there are Momoi and Yuuka. After that, everyone else should get more lines.
-It'll help if you have discord, but if you don't I'm sure we could figure something out

I may start casting some auditions early so stay tuned for that.
I've commented on all your auditions so far. Hopefully I'm not too nitpicky with this.
Momoi serves as the scenario writer for the Game Development Department. She often gets writer's block that spirals into procrastination, which steers them away from their goal until the last minute. She has a cheerful attitude that makes her a driving force for most of the hijinks the GDD will face.
As Momoi, you'll definitely be one of the voices that needs the most range compared to the others.
UWAAAA! I CAN'T COME UP WITH A STORY! I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING AT ALL! (6-7)
How much is our new budget going to be...? (13)
I saw this coming miles away! So I made sure to summon "sensei" beforehand! (15)
Midori is the illustrator of the group. She's more relaxed and level-headed compared to the others but still gets caught up with Momoi's procrastination antics.
Midori is often more calm with a bit of drama sprinkled in. Still expressive without sounding bored or over-hyper.
I made a rough concept art for the character. What do you think? (5)
You are the only one who has not made any progress, Onee-chan. (7)
Are you done with the scenario, Onee-chan? (22)
The president of the Game Development Department. She's bad at speaking with others and is reclusive to the point where she spends most of her time in a locker. Fortunately, she's found comfort in the GDD members.
She doesn't have much presence in the first chapter, but you will have more focus at the beginning of chapter 3.
I sort of got it working. Could you give it a try? (6)
The... The four of us... We belong to the Game Development Department! (40)
Found sleeping in some ruins, much is unknown about her. Her speech is picked up from the video games she plays, so it'll sound hesitant and unnatural at times.
Aris is an optimistic robot. So she'll sound robotic at times but she slowly sounds more natural with each game she plays. It'd be cool you if could implement some robotic elements in her voice, but if it impedes with the voice acting, then you're free to drop it. I think a voice reference could be Hatsune Miku, but without as much oversaturated voice synthesis.
Like Yuzu, she doesn't have much screen time in chapter 1, but will later on.
This is amazing! (6)
Behold! This aura of kindness! This person is none other than sensei! (17)
The treasurer of the Millenium Science School. She's stern, serious, and has to check up on the four gremlins in the Game Development Club to get updated on their progress.
You will have a lot of lines for chapter 1, like a lot, but will only show up a few times after that. Yuuka is usually calm but still projects herself. Usually professional, unless caught off-guard GDD's (mostly Momoi's) antics.
Your club is getting a budget reduction! Zero! we will not provide you with any funds for a while. (12)
As I'm the treasurer of the student council, if you come under management. I could assist you with the settlement of GDD's Debts (13)
Your lot is now under my management! I will work your fingers to the bone! All aspects of your lives! ARE MINE TO MANAGE! (14)
There aren't any specifics for this, but there will be other voices aside from the main four. Like any narration or background characters. If you aren't casted, I may ask you to provide voices for one of these roles.
