NKS: A Fandubbing Group for Danganronpa, Your Turn to Die, and more!

Maki appears to have a very serious personality, as she doesn't really seem to smile much if at all. The only notable exception is the poster which shows her with a mysterious smile, having a finger over her lips, which is a sign of secrecy.

Despite her cute appearance, Maki is described as a hostile misanthrope of few words. She is very aware that she comes across as unfriendly and prefers to be alone. In general, she dislikes people and thus she is not very cooperative and can be stubborn. She talks very little, so when she does, she states things clearly and she appears to be very confident about her arguments. She is cynical and negative with a sharp tongue and sometimes talks in a cold sarcastic manner. While not the type to assertively act on her own, she is stated to have guts and willing to take action when it suits her. She has no problem blaming Kaede Akamatsu coldly and rudely multiple times. She was also shown to be very openly irritated by people who believe in the supernatural, such as Kaito's fear of ghosts and Korekiyo's seances. She bluntly told Korekiyo that she finds his beliefs stupid right to his face.

Despite her extreme personality, Maki actually holds deep insecurities due to her past as an assassin. As part of her training, Maki was forced to undergo torture, and stated that she "vomited every day" and "cried every night." According to Maki, she did at one point feel anger and pain for being forced to kill others, until she reached the point where she felt "empty", telling Shuichi that she no longer considers herself human. As a result, Maki's experiences caused her to feel hate for herself, believing she was not worthy of having friends and therefore deciding to distance herself from the other students. However, after befriending Kaito and Shuichi, Maki decides to try and change her perspective, eventually learning to accept herself like Kaito encouraged her to.

Despite her distant and unfriendly personality, Maki is good at taking care of others. She is very popular among children, even though she dislikes them. According to Kaede, Maki is actually capable of deep love, something that children might be able to see, explaining their attachment to her. She also shows a more caring side when she accepts gifts and is invited by Kaede to spend time together.

K1-B0 is a polite and serious teenage robot, who has some trouble with human social interaction, and often comes across as unintentionally comical as a result. According to Kazutaka Kodaka, K1-B0 has both cute and cool characteristics, with him being socially awkward but serious.[6] Nevertheless, K1-B0 takes pride in his form and often boasts about his wonderfulness and efficient functions, though the other students never seem to find them impressive much to his disappointment. His aim is to overcome being an ordinary robot and because of this, he may get offended if he is compared to much more simple machines. While generally well-mannered, he is quickly angered by any prejudice against robots and sometimes threatens to sue people who make "discriminatory remarks". He considers robots a minority group among humans and can get slightly paranoid about "robophobia", supposedly because of past experiences. However, ironically, he himself is shown acting condescending and perpetrating "robot-on-robot abuse" towards simpler machines such as the robots with Monokuma's likeness, considering them mere stuffed animals who are beneath him.

Overall, K1-B0 appears to be quite well-meaning and kind, and he genuinely wishes to be friends with everyone (even considering Kokichi his friend during the bonus mode). He has mentioned multiple times that he wishes to make people smile and happy. He even likes comedy movies, because he enjoys the feeling of people having fun and wishes to become a robot who can make lots of people smile someday, like a comedy movie. He is also pacifistic and refuses to hurt humans, greatly respecting the First Law of Robotics, and in general dislikes violence and weapons. He also dislikes certain action movies for the way they portray robots as evil and murderous killing machines, considering it robophobic since most robots are friendly to humans. During the bonus mode, when Shuichi suggests making their own movie, K1-B0 would like to make a drama about hero stuff, which would be popular with children. K1-B0 wants to be the fearless hero while Shuichi would be the innocent citizen he saves from a villain. In Chapter 4, he even has some empathy for those he dislikes, as shown despite his grudge against Monotaro, he feels regret for Monotaro and Monophanie dying a terribly disturbing way and is upset at Monokuma for unsympathetically killing them like that.

Hajime is seemingly cynical due to how he behaves, but it would be better to describe him as a realist. He is quite skeptical and tends to worry more than the other students, but his worries are often very understandable. He is logical and smart, often annoyed by the idea of not being able to understand someone or something at all. He tends to be quite serious, but he does joke around occasionally and often goes along with his classmates' eccentric hobbies anyway, and sometimes smiles awkwardly and sheepishly while his friends engage in some of their usual weird behavior. He is sometimes annoyed by some of his classmates, and can be snarky towards them in his thoughts as well as blunt while speaking to them at times, though he's more frank than sarcastic or mean-spirited. Though sometimes a bit submissive (especially with bossy girls), he is not afraid to speak his mind, and he can be rude if annoyed enough (for example, after enduring Hiyoko's attitude during her Free Time Events, he finally ends up stating "I don't even care anymore"). He can sometimes be short-tempered and snap at others, especially when he's tired or under pressure. He was also quite paranoid during the start of the game and didn't have much interest in friendship, but he later really wanted to believe in his classmates and felt bad about doubting them during the Class Trials, but understood it's necessary. He sometimes regretted exposing the murderers, as shown after singling out the murderer in chapter 3.

Kyoko is a stoic and mysterious girl who tends to hide her feelings. She has a calm demeanor and tends to be completely unfazed by most of the events that occur, even at the sight of a dead body. Kyoko is also one of very few students that see things objectively and doesn't jump to conclusions in the trial, making her a valuable ally to Makoto.

Byakuya is an arrogant and serious young adult who originally saw himself to be more superior than the others due to being the heir to an extremely successful family business. He is extremely reluctant to admit to any mistakes he might have committed, and constantly refers to the other students as "amoebas" and "plebeians". He has a deviously manipulative tendency, as he often expressed irritation from Toko Fukawa and Genocide Jack's obsessive behavior towards him, but often used it to his benefit by ordering them around. He has also betrayed their trust more than once for his own personal gain.

He is often cold, blunt, and reserved, preferring to work alone and mocking the others' attempts to be cooperative, even bluntly stating that they are not friends. However, he does not appear to be as actively mean as he seems. Usually when he answers to the other students with cruel words, it is because they bothered him when he wanted to be left alone. It also appears that he was taught strict manners by his family, as he refuses to use swear words and is completely disgusted by vulgar words and behavior, and anything he considers barbaric. Notably, his overly serious personality often makes him quite comical, especially if he is with Toko or Genocide Jack. For example, he has used the word "effing" in order to avoid swearing, and once ran away to escape Toko in a comical manner. Moreover, due to his upbringing, he has poor knowledge on certain things that are considered common knowledge. He is confused by the idea of people making their own food, as his food is always prepared by a chef, and he doesn't know what toy vending machines are.

Competition, challenge and victory are a key part of Byakuya's life, and he even stopped making millions in a day simply because it was too easy and just killing time. He is shown to be very confident in his abilities and does not seem to consider failure even an option. In his Free Time Events, it's revealed that he had to work really hard and earn his current status, and thus he is very angered and offended whenever people assume that he got his title simply by being fortunate enough to be born into a rich family. He also appears to have genuine respect for the half-siblings he had to beat in order to reach his status, and is motivated to persist out of respect for those he defeated. However, because he was raised in highly competitive environment, he thinks people only think about themselves and he dismisses emotional ties as petty and unimportant.

Ultimate Imposter's true personality is somewhat unclear because they spend most of their time mimicking someone else's behavior. However, during chapter 6 of the second game, they speak briefly without disguise and it's implied that their real nature is polite and meek.

Most notably, the imposter appears to have a truly kind and caring personality. The imposter is also shown to be smiling in a friendly manner and being protective and supportive to others even while acting as the cold and arrogant Byakuya Togami. As part of their Byakuya impersonation, they act arrogant, rude and somewhat bad-tempered, but they're also reliable and feel responsible for others' safety.

Akane has a fiery personality and she loves fighting, as long as there is no other weapons besides the person's own fists and body, which lets her get along very well with Nekomaru Nidai. She is eager to challenge someone to fight her and she respects those who are physically strong, and can somehow correctly tell which people would be strong opponents even if they don't look like it. She seems to think that punching things, including people, is the best way to solve problems and her hot head can sometimes get her into trouble. While she also loves athletic things such as climbing and running, she can actually be very lazy and unmotivated if she isn't allowed to do things her own way. She dislikes planning, training, and routines, but has a remarkable talent for inventing her own moves. In general, her mood can shift very quickly. She can bounce between bored, to happy, to angry, and to happy again. Despite her easygoing and aloof personality, she is loyal and protective towards her friends 

Although Akane seems to have a rather serious attitude, she may say some quite out-of-place statements. Even during Class Trials, she tends to say random statements that only vaguely relate to the murder. She isn't the most intellectual member of the cast, being easily confused by complex words, misinterpreting insults and figures of speech, and generally defaulting to violence (or threats thereof) to solve problems. She is also very gullible, often easily believing things people say, as shown as she easily believes people's lies in Class Trials and is surprised when others tell her that they're lying.

Mahiru is an optimistic and sensible girl who is generally rather calm and unafraid to speak her mind. She initially comes off as confident, but is later revealed to have self-esteem issues. Mahiru compares her photographs to those of her mother, a famous war photographer whose career led her to be absent from home for much of Mahiru's life. Her father was a very poor parent, leaving the responsibility of the housework entirely to her. When Hajime Hinata was being scolded by Mahiru, he likened it to being yelled at by his mom.

Mahiru has high expectations of men and is quick to be abrasive towards them. She is much more tolerant and friendly to girls. The subjects of her photos are usually of girls and explains that she easily gets bored of photographing guys. She loves taking photos of people's smiles, and it's revealed in her Free Time Events that she recorded everything in the island so that they won't forget, except for the guys which she only recorded once every three days. Despite her love for photography, Mahiru believes her title is stupid compared to her classmates. She has been shown to dislike selfies.

Mahiru wants to help as many people as she can, but it'd be a mistake to call her a pushover. She doesn't hesitate to scold those who are rude to her and is also really good at taking care of people although never failing to complain about it. Mahiru is introduced as people-hater who lack manners, though she later develops a very close friendship with Hiyoko Saionji. Because Mahiru is a reliable person who thinks of her friends and is prone to taking care of people, she has many friends outside of her own class as well.

Nao is initially timid and shy and primarily stays with her teacher Professor Mishima, whom she idolizes to the extent of wanting to stand in anyone's way if they say negative things about him.

However, throughout the game, she gains immense mental strength and displays that she is no longer easily manipulated.

Keiji is shown to be pretty casual and level-headed during the Death Game, though he comes off as shady to some of the participants. He usually refers to himself as "the friendly policeman" in an effort to establish himself as trustworthy and makes a pretense of being less cunning than he really is. 

He's observant and canny and is quite good at reading other people and knows when to speak up and when to leave them be. 

He's also encouraging and gentle with the younger participants, making it his job to at least keep watch over Gin.

Keiji’s voice should be one of the deeper ones in the group, and should have a laidback vibe in general (but for more serious lines there should be a tangible difference). He can be likened to a teasing dad at times. 

Joe is an extremely upbeat, excitable, considerate and loyal person. He is easily embarrassed when others misinterpret him and is sensitive to how people perceive his appearance. Like Sara, Joe puts in all his efforts to help the group succeed in the puzzles. He consistently convinces the group to believe in Sara and her abilities and generally places most of his trust to her. Though he is described as gaudy by Reko Yabusame and has a small habit of saying the wrong things at the wrong time, Joe is genuinely kind hearted and sensitive to others' feelings.

Although not academically one of the smartest in the group, he does provide occasional insight, such as his suggestion of a traitor among the participants. Despite that, Joe wants to find and believe in the good in others, even as he has his own doubts. 

Alice has a short fuse and is one of the few participants that has little trust for the rest of the group. Because of his attitude in that no one can be trusted, he tends to go off on his own and often pushes others away when they wish to work or talk with him. He is quite aggressive in the way he speaks, but with enough persuasion and trust he can be kind and helpful.

Gin tries to remain positive and optimistic in the situation that he has found himself and the other participants in. He shows that he trusts others easily and believes in most of the people that he meets. It's very rare to see Gin looking down or sad. He is very clingy and gets attached to those he meets and gives them nicknames. He becomes especially attached to Sara, and views her as a completely trustworthy and kind sibling figure. While he may be young, Gin always attempts his best to help the group by finding clues and remains strong despite the circumstances.

Kai has a seemingly aloof and absentminded nature. He's often quiet, even during intense discussions and accusations. Because of his quiet nature, he isn't considered to be much of a person of interest to the group. Though like the others, he makes it apparent that he wishes to try his best to contribute to their advancement, even if his withdrawn demeanor and weird aura put Sara off.

Kanna tends to refer to herself in the third person, indicating a certain level of childishness, though she makes an effort to correct herself sometimes when she catches herself.

She is very trusting and naive, and believes in Sou despite knowing he manipulated her in the past. She can seem timid but is actually quite unafraid to speak her thoughts. While she was at first referred to as 'Frightened Girl' in Sara's internal alias, this does not appear to be the norm. When she was exploring the third floor with Sou she firmly lectured him for weakly wanting more breaks.

Despite being one of the most vulnerable and unstable of the group, Kanna tries her best to be helpful and demonstrates bravery, the initiative to act, and a willingness for self-sacrifice.

She has also shown some cleverness in how to figure out the password to Kai's laptop when Shin was at a loss, and simply lacks the self-confidence to understand her own value.

Please do not scream directly into your mic.

Being a little odd, Mishima often puffs mad scientist laughs after sentences, and his emotions often conflict with his appearance. Mishima seems to enjoy acting strange to amuse others, behaving cryptic and overly analytical of everyone's actions. His unusual social quirks aside, Mishima makes it clear he has no ill intentions and frequently reminds others to be safe and cautious. Despite appearances, Mishima is an incredibly kind, caring and encouraging person. Aside from Nao, he also shows great concern for Kanna and even helps to spur her onward towards hope, albeit by lying about the circumstances of the first trial.

Q-taro is generally friendly and easy-going, but he's also shown that he can be quite selfish, and can be easily swayed by others. Despite appearances, Q-taro is deeply thoughtful and cunning. He finds it difficult to trust those around him, as he believes in evidence of a person's character rather than speculation. His restrictive trust exists because Q-taro hopes that he'll be able to protect everyone from the dangers of the Death Game. He's very truthful and fairly straightforward when he speaks, and is a logic-over-emotions type of thinker.

Reko seems intimidating and assertive, appearing rough around the edges, especially in comparison to her milder female companions such as Nao and Kanna. However, she's generally friendly and has a "big sister" vibe.  She seems to act kinder to those who may be seen as "weak"; Reko immediately comforts Kanna after hearing about her sister and treats her more gently. Though, apparently, this was a change to her personality within the last few years. was arrested for murder. Reko is described as 'having always been overflowing with talent & charisma from an early age'.  However, Reko tends to be quick to panic and is afraid of the dark and superstitious of things like ghosts. She is known for alternating between the masculine pronoun "ore" and the more neutral pronoun "watashi." She has great reflexes and has a great memory.

Sou is a mystery to the player, as the game implicates him from the very start. In his introduction, Sou is friendly in general but a bit standoffish. He's secretive due to being distrustful of the other participants. Despite this, he participates in searching for clues with everyone. Sou is canny and intelligent, but due to his suspicious nature, has a habit of jumping to negative conclusions, especially in regards to Sara. He cannot comprehend Sara's charisma and is both resentful and envious of how she manages to gain the others' trust. Survival is his main priority, and with knowledge of his survival rates (provided by the organization), his previous personality snaps and warps to what he believes would better serve his continued existence. This also means lying to achieve whatever ends, and skillfully at that.

Although Miley is called "The Laughing Doll", she isn't as friendly as her name seems to hint. Miley is sadistic; enjoys seeing the participants in the death game suffer, and even goes as far to torment them by dangling hope before crushing it. She enjoys toying with their despair as the participants start questioning their chances of survival. Miley also has her own plans and agenda, dropping valuable clues to Sara even as she mocks her. She doesn't care about Sara personally, but she derives amusement in seeing how she and the other participants will react to unexpected information.

Miley's original Japanese name, "ホエミー, Hoemī" is a pun on ほえみ, 'Hoemi' literally means "small smile." VGperson named her Sue Miley in their translation to make up for the pun; as in 'smiley'.

Ranger was created with nearly only negative personality traits and was initially devoid of any empathy or kindness. He has a strong inferiority complex toward humans which leads him to act with sadistic glee at their despair. He pretends like he treats humans dismissively, but in truth he pays a lot of attention to towards them; Going as far as collecting clothing from dead participants to wear for himself.  He usually calls participants 'bastards.'

Ranger's original Japanese name, "トト・ノエル, Toto Noeru" is a pun on 整える,' Totonoeru' literally means "to arrange; to put in order." VGperson named him 'Rio Ranger' in their translation to make up for the pun; as in 'rearranger.'

Safalin is seemingly the most reserved doll. Her first appearance is on a screen in the Monitor Room, and she only emerges in person when Ranger demands it. Afterward, she roams Floor 3, practicing hospitality for "important participants" on orders from the Floor Master, Rio Ranger. Her title, "The Crying Doll", is congruous with the way she acts. She seems to have a rather submissive personality, often allowing others to bully her. She never asserts herself and is quick to apologize for any perceived misstep. On occasion, Safalin seems to be carried away by an unusually brazen and almost sadistic streak, so far only seen when she is meeting one-on-one with a participant. It is unclear whether this behavior is intended to be entirely malicious or not, and what exactly triggers this shift in her behavior. As soon as another individual enters the scene, she quickly resumes her typical behavior.

Safalin's original Japanese name, "ハンナキー, Han'nakī" is a pun on 半鳴き, 'Han naki' literally means "half-crying; verge of crying." vgperson named her Tia Safalin in the translation to make up for the pun; as in 'tears are falling.'

Originally, Gashu is introduced as the manager of the gift shop opened in chapter two. It's only shown this isn't true after the 11th attraction concludes. He reveals the trading system soon afterwards, and that all of the cards for the main game have been assigned via the tablets. He'll later appear multiple times throughout the course of the waiting time, whether idly standing around and watching or crushing the participants' hopes however he can.

We would love to work with translators so we can further expand the kind of projects we would be able to do.

Possible roles include: crafting messages to artists in their own language, translating comics that we are given permission to do, translating the sound effects in manga for our editors, translating our dubs into other languages and uploading the translation to the video, etc.

Please include the name you'd like to go by, the language(s) you are able to translate from/into, your discord profile, and a link to whatever social media you would want to be credited with.

For Anthology Comics we sometimes need a narrator.
