Project Overview

KATEKYOUSHI HITMAN REBORN! MANGA DUB

Summary

Tsunayoshi Sawada is a 14 year old middle school student with a reputation of being ‘Loser Tsuna’. His grades are embarrassingly low, his athleticism is nonexistent, and his confidence is so low that he’s intimidated by a chihuahua. His ordinary life is suddenly upended when a baby named Reborn arrives claiming himself to be a hitman and his new home tutor. Tsuna is the chosen 10th boss of the largest mafia family in the world, the Vongola, and it’s Reborn’s job to a respectable and strong mafioso.

Introduction

I've been wanting to do this project for a long time as Katekyoushi Hitman REBORN! is my all time favorite manga. However, while well known in Japan it doesn't seem to have much presence here in the west. Not many seem to know or at least have heard of it before. It had an anime that never got dubbed and while I'd like to dub it, it doesn't hold up due to animation and censorship and also ends before the last two arcs of the manga. For a while I've wanted KHR! to get more love, whether it be through a anime reboot similar to HunterxHunter or a continuation/sequel of the manga. Hopes were high when the author, Amano Akira's, most recent series elDLIVE was promoted with a video that included new animation for KHR! Unfortunately, since then there's been no more news about it. TL:DR I want give my favorite series the love I feel it deserves by producing an English dub of the manga!

  • Thank You for Making This Casting Difficult~

    I wanna thank everyone that auditioned. This project is very dear to me and finding the right voices for these characters I love is a joy. And there is so much talent on display here and even with narrowed down options I ultimately felt like I might as well have been picking a name out of hat. There are more roles to cast going forward both leads and supporting as well as minor. So keep a look out if you're still interested in this particular project. And again, thank you for making this difficult~

Role assigned to: Angelique Kimble

Age: 5

 

Character: 

Lambo is a rambunctious child and member of the Bovino Family. He claims to be a hitman and even Reborn’s rival despite being incredibly incompetent. Even his own family, after he takes up residence in Tsuna’s home, are more than willing to let him stay. They even send a gift box as thanks. Lambo is a child through and through. He’s whiny, hyperactive, cocky, unreasonable, and obnoxious. Still, you can’t help but love him. His constant failures that result in him trying to hold back from crying, his little cow outfit and horns, how much he adores Tsuna’s mother. He’s a total pain, but at the end of the day he’s a child who just wants to play and hang around the big kids.

 

Vocal Direction: 

High; child; Lambo is probably the most expressive of the gang, going from hyper and cocky, to frustrated and angry, to crying and whining, and he even has his adorable moments. In essence the actor needs to portray obnoxious innocence

  • (Confident) “Long time no see, Reborn! It's me, Lambo!”


    (Slight crying/blunt; after Reborn ignores and effortlessly beats him Tsuna is left to comfort Lambo as he shares his ambition) “La…Lambo’s dream is to become the boss of the Bovino Famiglia…*Sniffle*…and make the whole world bow down to me…”

  • (Obnoxious/deflecting; after getting completely owned by Reborn, Lambo tries to play off his hurt pride by over-introducing himself) “GYAHAHAHA! I, LAMBO, AGE 5, A HITMAN FROM THE BOVINO FAMIGLIA, TRIPPED! I, LAMBO, WHOSE FAVORITE FOODS ARE GRAPES AND CANDY AND WHO MET REBORN AT A BAR, JUST TRIPPED!”

  • (Distressed/verge of tears; Lambo's signature phrase as he tries not to cry) “Hold...it...in…”

Role assigned to: itsthepinoyboy

Age: 15


Character: 

This is Lambo from the future. Lambo carries with him a special weapon known as the Ten Year Bazooka. When someone is shot with it, it physically swaps the target with their self from ten years later. He often uses this on himself when he feels frustrated or cornered. Thus we get Adult Lambo. Adult Lambo seems to have matured and mellowed a great amount. He comes off as carefree and sociable, often remarking how he was just at a party or the like when he was summoned to the present. He’s also developed a significant respect for Tsuna and his fellow family members. Even referring to Tsuna by the title “Vongola”. However, despite this maturation he is still incompetent and when faced with an obstacle he can’t deal with he’ll revert to crying as he did as a child.


Vocal Direction: 

Medium to Mid-low; young adult; his speech is relaxed/understated with some charisma and has a hint of nostalgia when interacting with the present characters however he can just as easily become a blubbering mess when things don’t go his way

  • (Calm/Charming; first appearance he greets Tsuna without much surprise at being summoned to the past) “Long time no see, young Vongola 10th. Thanks for taking care of me 10 years ago. I’m Cry Baby Lambo.”

  • (Irritated but composed; upset that even after 10 years of maturing, Reborn is still ignoring him) “Goodness…! Looks like I’ll have to use brute force to make you acknowledge me. I’ll show you just how much I’ve changed in 10 years!”


    (Determined/Signature attack; in an effort to get Reborn to acknowledge him Lambo prepares and launches a fierce attack) “Thunder, set! Elettrico Cornata!!!”

  • (Distressed/verge of tears; completely owned yet again he utters his old signature saying before running away crying) “Hold...it...in...WAAHHHH!”

Unpaid
Role assigned to: adoxographist

Age: 17

 

Character:

Gokudera’s older sister and bonafide femme fatale nicknamed Poison Scorpion. Bianchi is somewhat aloof but shows a genuine care for her brother and is happy when he shows the same. Most notably, she is infatuated with Reborn, having fallen in love with him during jobs they did together in the past. So much so that she attempts to assassinate Tsuna, so that Reborn won’t need to continue teaching him and be with her. She’s incredibly violent when it comes to love, even trying to kill TYL Lambo, mistaking him for her ex-boyfriend, Romeo. When not dealing with her violent love life, Bianchi is nonchalant, much like Reborn, often saying the most outrageous things without batting an eye. Her assassination techniques lie in poison, specifically Poison Cooking. Anything she makes becomes poisonous, even when she’s not trying to make poisoned food.

 

Vocal Direction:

Medium - semi low; mature young woman; Bianchi has a sultry voice and is reserved in her speech, though becomes sweet when talking to or about Reborn

  • (Confident/Threatening; when the girls are offering their home ec cooking to the boys Bianchi swaps Kyoko's with her own poison cooking in order to kill Tsuna) "I've always believed that people are willing to die for love. So die, Vongola 10th, for the sake of love."

  • (Sweet/Infatuated; Bianchi has come to bring Reborn back to the mafia world with her) "These peaceful surroundings don't suit you. The place you belong is an underworld full of dangers and thrills~"


    (Melodramatic, choked up/Veiled threat) "Poor Reborn... Unless the 10th perishes due to an accident or misfortune, you won't ever be free, is that it?"

  • (Nonchalant/Teasing; the sight of Bianchi causes Gokudera terrible stomach pains so he attempts to keep her from entering the room) "This way of blushing must be Hayato, right? I'm only here to solve question 7. You're much too mindful of your older sister's femininity, aren't you?"
