(Closed) Christmas Yu-Gi-Oh Parody Special

Project Overview

Calling all Yu-Gi-Oh fans. We invite you to join us on a journey unlike any other. FanficRadio is a YouTube Channel for Fanfic Addicts and Writers. We specialize in producing professional quality audio dramas based on well-written fanfictions.

This year we are working on a fun Yu-Gi-Oh project that will release this Christmas. It's a parody of a classic Christmas story (we'll keep the story under the covers for now) with each Yu-Gi-Oh character will replace one of the classic characters and add his/her own twist on it. A tribute for both Yu-Gi-Oh and Christmas.

The original script was split into 9 short episodes. While we're still adjusting the length, we expect that we'll do end up with 9 episodes that will start airing around a week before Christmas Eve. 

Right now, Mokuba and Seto Kaiba have already started recording. Due to aiming to release by Christmas time (and as we expect that everyone will start getting busy come December), we'll have all the scripts ready for you to start recording immediately after being cast. We'd expect you'd have 1 - 2 weeks after being cast to submit your recordings.

We invite you to join us in this project. Can't wait to see your auditions.

Latest Updates

  • Teaser for 'A Kaiba's Carol'

    Thought I'd share the teaser for the series with everyone following: https://youtu.be/gsufKwJ3xWY
  • Scripts have been sent out

    Just wanted to confirm that all the scripts have been sent out for all the characters. If you've been cast, please make sure you've received the scripts from us and do reach out if you haven't.
  • All roles have been cast

    Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who auditioned. All the auditions were so great that it took us forever to actually cast the roles. Very close calls on every single role. Everyone that's been cast, you will be hearing from us very shortly about your scripts. If we couldn't cast you, please know that we're gonna be reaching out soon with a new casting call. We would still love to work with you and are always looking for voice actors. And to everyone in the US, hope you had an awesome Thanksgiving!
  • One role has been updated and a new role has been added

    After a lot of discussions and pondering, we've decided to change 'Josephine Wheeler' to use Joey Wheeler's voice. Joey will start off using his normal Brooklyn accent and then will switch into character and start using a higher pitch to pretend to be a girl. So if you've wanted to voice Joey, now's your chance! We've also added one more role which is young Seto Kaiba. That is the Seto Kaiba we see at the orphanage. He's around ten during the scenes we're going to be looking at. More about him on the project's page!
  • One more role has been added: Tristan Taylor

    Where would we be without Tristan Taylor? Tristan is one of the first few characters making an appearance in the special. You can now see his details and lines on the project ready for auditions.

Nothing says a Christmas Special like a deep, soothing male voice telling you a bedtime stories about characters playing children card games and a world that sometimes makes little sense.

Seriously, though, for this role, we are looking for a deep voice with an English accent. A great reference could be Patrick Stewart reading Castlevania: https://youtu.be/keTMi7VI_ek

The narrator will be telling the story and moving us from one scene to another. And while he sounds very serious and professional, will have to endure some lines that make little sense. But hey, you've been warned, future Sir Patrick Stewart.

  • (Serious, no non-sense tone) "There is definitely no doubt that Gozaburo Kaiba was dead – despite what the Virtual World arc may have you believe. This must be distinctly understood, or nothing wonderful can come of the story I am going to relate."

  • (Starting off serious, but quickly realizing the possible misunderstanding) "And there he was – without a doubt, Seto would know that white hair and red suit anywhere. No, not that white hair and red suit…   "

  • (A tone suitable of telling a bedtime story despite the content being narrated)"He had unruly blond hair and better eyeliner than any woman Seto ever laid eyes on. Something about his expression was a little off-putting; that grin could only be described as sadistic. Seto wouldn’t have been surprised to learn this spirit had murdered his own father or committed various forms of assault or something."

Yugi Muto is a gentle soul with an edgy look. In this little series, he's a hard working man with a wife and three kids. He works with a certain beloved CEO and has a lot to say about Christmas.

We are aiming to be as close to the original voice as possible. A reference to how Yugi sounds in the original series would be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogRvCIkMRcw

  • (Joyfully taking in the Christmas Spirit) "It’s only right that we raise our glasses to the founder of the feast! To my boss, who will be very merry and happy this day. Long life to him”

  • (Sad but pretending to be happy for the sake of the family)"It would have done you good to see the graveyard for yourself. He has a wonderful spot off to the right and at the front where he can see everything around."

  • (Late and worried he'd be fired) "Ah—I apologise! I was up rather late last night. But-! It is only once a year!”

Bow before the pharoah, the king of the games and in this series, a mentor ... in a way. He's as royal as ever and doesn't mind showing off a bit. He'll remind you you're beneath him but he'll fair with you nonetheless.

  • (Patiently he explains) “These are but shadows, Kaiba. They have no consciousness of us.”

  • (Demanding with the roll of an eye) “Oh, for the love of Ra, will you just let the narrative do its job?”

  • (Mournfully)“What a waste.”

Role assigned to: allen the ultimate gamer

Ah, we can't have a Christmas Special without this precious guy. He's a person of pure evil and insanity, but finds himself cast in this more 'educational' role and decides he accepts the cameo. That doesn't stop him from complaining, however.  He shows no interest in those around him. He's in it for the pay ... if he was getting paid.

We are trying to be as close to the original voices as possible, so please check out the original voice at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xaa_ycud6o

  • (Somewhat bored but replies anyway) “I was only in the anime regularly for less than two seasons.”

  • (Bored and can't believe he can leave already) "Go forth, and know him better, man! Is-is that it now? Am I done? Can I leave-?” 

  • (Annoyed at the other guy) “Who give a damn if you do or don’t? I get paid for this cameo either way.” (Talking to the director and breaking the fourth wall) "I accept checks."

Yami Bakura is technically an evil spirit, but due to our beloved author, he has resumed a more ... 'educational' role. He doesn't quite approve of our choices and makes sure to break the rules every once and a while, but hey ... I'm the director and I have the upper hand.

He speaks in a ... well it's supposed to be an English accent, but ... well, check the reference below.

We are trying to be as true to the original voices as possible, so please make sure to check out his original voice at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0MWn9ps-Wo

  • (Totally ignoring the other speaker as he complains) “Now it’s all British jokes and Thiefshipping, whatever that even is.”

  • (Already bored to be there)"He’s here because I hate exposition, and frankly, the fangirls would never forgive his absence."

  • (Impatiently) "Read on. I have other appointments.”

A strict, persistent man who refuses to stay dead. So much so that he decides to become a ghost and haunt the main characters. He's arrogant, angry and ever so mean.

  • (Dead Serious) “You would be smart to heed the warning I bring – and I raised you to no end if not to be smart.”

  • (In a bored manner) “Not really. I didn’t want to be here, but the plot called for it. Personally, I couldn’t care less if you spent all of eternity in a hell of your own making, never to interact with another, never to engage in the joys of the world, never to play another card game-”

  • (In a cold, dead tone) “Why do you refuse to believe your senses?"

Okay, okay, hear us out. This is Joey Wheeler pretending to be a girl. A beautiful blonde with everyone's favorite brooklyn accent and Joey's original humorous personality.

Please make sure to checkout Joey's original voice and do remember that he starts off normal, but then he switches to a higher pitched voice as he gets into character : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72TELPL1YBs

  • (In Joey's normal voice) “’What else can I be?! In a stupid outfit like this. You’re seriously telling me all the good roles are taken?”

  • “Fine, fine.” (Still not convinced, but getting into character under pressure from the director, he switches to a higher pitch pretending to be a girl) “What else can I be like this?”

Little Seto Kaiba

Role assigned to: LonnieIIV

This is the younger version of Seto Kaiba. According to the original work, this was when he was somewhere around 10 - 12 years old. 


Seto has always been smarter and lot more mature than other people his age. He tends to be a bit reserved except around his baby brother, Mokuba. Since his parents had died leaving him and Mokuba alone, Seto has stepped in as his Mokuba's guardian and parent even though he was only a few years older. In many occasions, you'll see him step in to protect the little boy and won't stop at anything to make him happy.

His goal was to make sure they were both adopted into the same family so they don't get separated, so he decided to challenge a famous businessman to a chess under the condition that if he wins, the man would adopt them both. And guess what, that's exactly what happens.

  • (With a conviction and a tone that is surprising for a child his age) “Checkmate! You lose! Now you have to adopt us, just like you promised!”

  • (Lightheartedly as he beats his baby brother in chess) “Sorry, Mokie. Looks like I win again.”

  • (Excitedly) “Really? You really do mean that!?”

Weevil Underwood is an ... annoying little guy who makes sure to take advantage of every scenario he's in. Has a nerdy nasal voice that drives his annoying role home.

We are aiming to be be as close to the original voice as possible. A great example of Weevil's voice would be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TLIb-QJOi0

  • (A bit on the theatrical side as he tries to get his point across) “Dead. Kapoot. Destroyed. Torn to pieces. No longer in this world. Gone.”

  • (With an evil grin as he shares his latest findings) "Tossed all his cards out a window. But luckily, yours truly found them."

Rex Raptor used to be a big deal one day but has since then seen his popularity sink. As such, he finds himself working with Weevil Underwood to basically bully and annoy everyone around them. That being said, to quote the wiki,"though Rex is vengeful, arrogant, and tyrannical, he plays fairly".

We are trying to be as true to the original voice as possible, so please check out Rex Raptor's original voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy2BF7LXmjo

  • (In mild shock at hearing the news) "How did it happen exactly?"

  • (Very excited in seeing the loot) "No way! Where did you find this?”

  • (A little on the arrogant side as he makes his card picks) “The Battle Ox isn’t quite a dinosaur, but it is similar, and I think it’ll make a fine addition to my deck.”

A soft gentle soul who often finds himself in very dark troubling situation. A favorite with the fangirls. A running joke in the fandom is that he's very stereotypically British. Tends to try to fit in, often is ignored.

He's technically supposed to speak in an English voice, but if you check the original voice, you'll notice that's not quite the case.
