Asami is a jack of all trades. She has many different personalities, all relying on who she’s talking with. She can be professional, friendly, rude, anything so long as it’s lacking. She’s not overly hopeful, but that doesn’t hold her back from fulfilling what she must. She’s quick to call out injustices or unfairness made by those she believes are lesser, but in the case of those with higher power, she quickly folds
.
For a voice, I would like it to be about as general as you can get. Neutral in pitch, neutral in emotion while regularly speaking, you get the deal. This won’t just mean that she’s not going to be emotional at points, but she’s just an overly average person upon first introduction, and I want her voice to encapsulate that.
- english
- female young adult
Oh, I’m Asami. Asami Sano. And I’m the Ultimate Hairstylist. (Neutral, Introductory)
Even if I don’t like people, I can still bite my tongue… Do you lack a filter? Is that why you spit out trash constantly!? (Angry, Accusatory)
Aaaahh… N-no, no, nonononono… (Panicked, on the verge of tears)
Cold, uncaring. She’s willing to extend a hand, but it’s likely to strike a deal, not solely to help. It’s not easy for her to care about people. She’s likely to downplay authority, and mostly follows her own rules. She is able to build relationships with others, but it’s going to have to be from their own efforts. A lone wolf, in more simple terms. Despite this manner of thinking, she’s still quick to crack jokes, even if some are off-kilter.
For a voice, I would like hers to be in the deeper range, as well as slightly scratchy. She’s not really going to be hyper-enthused at any points, so that’s good to know if you’re not good with that kinda stuff.
- english
- female young adult
...My name is Atsushi Geshi. (Introductory)
Just tell us what you need to already! (Angry)
If we're completely fine, you owe me 1,000 yen. (Relaxed)
Sweet, caring, all of the above. Believes in kindness before all else, and is a complete pacifist. So nice that she’d rather die than let someone else die, which totally means well for her in a death game. She’s a decently popular person, and is known around the world for her talent. Despite this, she can be ignorant of how others feel when she herself is at her best. She worries about her public image, wondering if people will try picking it apart.
Overall, Haniya should have a very feminine tone, despite her seemingly masculine appearance. The only thing I could really say is that it should be slightly deeper than average, but not too much so.
- english
- female young adult
Oh, sure! My name is Haniya Anwar. (Introductory)
Yeah… I’m realizing how much this is to dump on people randomly, sorry… (Happy, exasperated)
Calm down! You said the last bell was a warning bell! (Slightly panicked)
A well mannered, kind woman who’s willing to take leadership whenever the chance comes her way. She’s usually seen taking notes in her notebook, often going into uninterruptible trances whilst doing so. Her ability to take notes is high above her peers’ level, and her vocabulary is highly descriptive in most cases. Unforgiving. Despite this, she can quickly become anxious, and thus prepares for the worst case scenarios. Even with that, she maintains cool composure and doesn’t fall apart, attempting to be a shoulder for others to lean on.
Kaori should have a deep, authoritative, formal tone. That’s how she speaks in almost all interactions, so it’s a pivotal factor. She should have the voice of a leader, in more basic terms.
No voice claim avaliable.
- english
- female young adult
Oh, correct. How could I forget? My name is Kaori Gondou. (Introductory, formal)
Is it not clear? We all hold devotion, otherwise we wouldn’t be here! (Angry, shouting)
This is… Illogical! Do not proceed, or you could end up hurt! (Panicked)
Quite argumentative, willing to fight people even when she knows she’s wrong. Despite this, she can be somewhat upbeat, so long as you don’t annoy her (which is quite easy to do.) Her particular sense of trust has helped her longevity, only letting people in her circle upon learning about them inside and out. Even if she softens up to you, expect to still be the target of her somewhat random insults. She’s quick to hold men to higher standards, especially when involving her own brother.
For Katie’s voice, I’m honestly not too picky. So long as you can easily handle snark, as well as put on a “VTuber voice”, she should be easy to figure out. I honestly do not mind if you just use your normal voice for all of her dialogue outside of that.
- english
- female young adult
Hey there, pals! It's me again, Katie Jackson! (V-Tuber voice)
I guess so, it's just… A lot less lively than my other college… (Forlorn, you can do your normal voice for the next 2))
Yeah, but do you know how many video donos I get where there’s whispering only for me to get my ears blasted out? (Enraged)
A complete nerd bro. Has complete movie literacy, able to point out tropes left and right. Breaks easily under stress, but can build his composure back just in time to figure out what to do and how to react. Holds up a facade of friendliness, dumping trust far too much into people who may seem untrustworthy to others. His mind is easily scarred, hardening anywhere where it can be hurt. Despite this, he is quite sheltered and can easily make incorrect statements with complete confidence.
Kentaro should have a voice that screams “Danganronpa Protag energy”, but with a slightly goofy twist. At times he will fall into a flatter, more regular tone, but he usually tries to portray himself as an unrealistic caricature.
- english
- male young adult
Kentaro Jitsukata. I'm pretty sure you've seen me somewhere, right? (Introductory, smug)
Lastly, you can call me Ken, yeah? (Hushed, assured)
BAHAHAHA! Headmaster!? Seriously? You? Where the hell did Mr. Kirigiri go, a smoke break? (Extreme smugness)
A polite kid who respects authority. Doesn’t speak up all too much, in fear of talking over people. Has a strong sense of justice, taking matters into his own hands if he doesn’t see the current state of the group as correct. Believes in his own common sense above all else, not willing to do something extreme unless provoked.
Koi-Sho should have a light voice, as he’s a child. He’s likely to have a shaky or compliant tone, but will slowly get more comfortable over time, especially when he meshes with the group more.
Voice Claim - Finn, Adventure Time (No link available, sorry)
- english
- male teen
I-I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to be late... (Quick, shaky)
I'm... Koi-Sho. Koi-Sho Shuai. (Introductory)
N-No, I'm sure I'm meant to be here, just... My head's... Messed up. (Shaky, assured)
A somewhat cold person who lost her sense of truly recognizing death. Despite this, she’s very willing to help with anything. She uses her cool head to fix problems extraordinarily quickly, and can pick up on subtext in a heartbeat. Only ever wants to help, finding herself a failure if she doesn’t.
Maria should have a cold, calculated tone. She’s not prone to panicking, as she’s capable of collecting herself very quickly. Despite her outer coldness, there’s a deep sense of caring when she talks about those close to her, like her sister.
- english
- female young adult
My name's Maria. (introductory)
H-half of those aren't even words... (Dumbfounded)
He might be going into shock. What are we supposed to... (Shaky, panicked)
She comes off as somewhat rude to those who shallowly meet her, however if you get on her warmer side she can easily become protective. She’s quick to scold people who’ve wronged her and her friends, even if it’s not too big of a deal. She willingly jumps through hoops to make those around her happy, as well as to keep her vanity intact. She also quickly assumes the worst when it comes to meeting new people. She can easily lose sight of logic with the task of making the person she’s arguing with look as bad as possible.
Okura should have an overall sassy tone, especially one that’s easy to yell with. However, the more stereotypical attributes of her voice may melt away when she's with close friends.
- female young adult
Listen, I don’t have much time off usually. Especially with Asami, and I really wanted her to join us. (Sincere)
Well, yes. There wasn’t all too much interesting about the rest of him. (Annoyed)
Don’t look! Don’t look at him! (Panicked, screaming/yelling)
A bubbly, friendly girl who wants the best for people that could be her friends. She clings onto social interactions hard, not having had all too many growing up. Revels in the joy that comes with having true friends. Her temperament can easily be shattered by things going wrong, memories flooding back to ruin her at any chance they get. She doesn’t recognize the lives other people have gone through, but is willing to learn once given the option.
Paru’s voice is very cute, bubbly, and high. She’s usually jam packed with cheer, to the point where 90% of pessimists would probably hate her. She can still have her sad moments though, as dread easily takes hold on her.
- english
- female young adult
My name's Paru! (Happy, introductory)
Oooh, how adorable~! (Happy)
Wh-what do we grab? (Panicked, less bubbly)
A sarcastic, fun loving guy. He’s quick to make fun of people that don’t fit what he sees as proper. He only truly finds care for those close to him, in this case being his closely knit friend circle. He feels a strong connection to them, and if anything wrong is to happen to them, he immediately gets aggressive with the perpetrator.
Ronin has a high, scratchy voice that easily pulls off sarcasm. Despite this, he’s prone to quickly freaking out and turning into a mess upon being countered.
No voice claim avaliable.
- english
- male young adult
Maybe... My name's Ronin Yano, by the way.
Don’t worry, I’m fine! I think… (Overplaying pain)
S-Spewing swears isn’t going to revive him though! (Shock)
A laid back, inspiring individual. He’s quick to notice people’s feelings no matter what state they’re in. Despite this, he still has a strong sense of justice some might see as extreme. He keeps a level head no matter the situation, and can quickly change to become much more serious in discussion. Despite this, he gets a bit carried away playing the unserious character he’s built up for himself over the years.
Ryuki should have a normal, slightly deeper than average voice with not too much scratchiness involved. He should be average compared to most of the other male cast members.
Voice Claim - Mordecai, Regular Show
- english
- male young adult
Lemme clear it up, okay? My name's Ryuki Sudou. (Introductory)
Do you seriously think we'd do something like that!? (Angry)
D-do any of us even know how to treat this stuff!? (Panic)
An overall leader type. Willing to protect those he cares about no matter what. If anyone he cares about gets hurt, he will immediately fight back against whoever caused them that pain. Willing to have humility at times, but gets serious when he hears insults like those he’d faced at a younger age. If he messes up in any way, his immediate next course of action is for him to make up for it in some way. All he wants to do is protect those he recognizes as innocent.
Sadao should have a deep, strong, scratchy voice that’s capable of filling a leader like role, as that’s mainly what he takes during the Prologue and the following Chapter 1 Daily Life.
- english
- male young adult
Well then, my name is Sadao Bokuda. (Introductory, professional)
If anything goes deeply wrong, you owe me a soda. (Joking)
I don’t play these games! (Enraged)
A soft-spoken man who isn’t good at fighting back. He’s willing to take insults if it’s from someone he cares about. He can easily become sarcastic if genuinely annoyed, however. He tries to uplift people when there’s not much of a chance, but can easily crack. If he’s hurt, he’d rather isolate himself rather than solve the problem at hand.
For terms of voice, I'd like a soft voice on the deeper side. It wouldn't really show much emotion, making sarcasm difficult to get across.
No voice claim avaliable.
- english
- male young adult
Huh? Oh, I'm Toby Jackson. (Introductory, caught off guard)
Mascot? Like, the guy that walks around in a suit with a big head at events? (Genuinely questioning)
I-is it… A messed up reality show..? (Worried)
A silent type who likes working on their own inventions more than talking with people. Willing to shut people out if it means they’ll be safe. Goes head over heels for anyone she deems as “smart”, despite the fact those notions aren’t related to what others believe is objective intelligence. Makes rash statements without realizing it. Likes helping, but not leading. Introverted above all else, willing to shut friends out if it means she’ll be safe.
Tomiko’s voice should be difficult to exactly distinguish, gender-wise. Despite this, they should have a somewhat deeper voice. They generally use a dryer sense of humor, keeping a monotone cadence when speaking comfortably, but that easily breaks when they’re panicking.
- english
- androgynous
...Tomiko Raijou. (Introductory, cold)
But that could've been a lie. And just because I'm soldering some wires to it makes you believe whatever I'm saying. Because this is actually a portable air fryer. (Smug)
Yeah, very funny, man. W-we have lives out there, you know? Friends, family… (Panicked)
A well-meaning man who will do what others tell him is the right thing to do. Willing to throw himself in front of whatever danger may be faced if it has a chance to save the ones he loves. Aside from that, people can easily see him as boring or mundane due to him not really having that strong of a presence or voice.
Zion’s voice is very flat and average. I would say he sounds a bit younger than the rest of the cast, despite not actually being so. He should give off major “Dating Sim Protagonist” reject vibes.
- english
- male young adult
Oh, right. Sorry. My name's Zion Takechi. (Introductory, caught off guard)
You are? Oh god, I must look like a mess to you… (Self-conscious)
Th-that can’t be real… (Dumbfounded)
The mascot of it all, the face of the killing game. He often finds joy in the struggles of his captives, making quick jokes at their expense. He easily gets annoyed with those not on his wavelength, and communicates with those who are extremely well. The only problem is, nobody really tends to do that. He easily drops his funny guy act in serious moments, but quickly picks it up after successfully freaking most of the group out.
Passhokuma’s voice is a subversion of the usual mascot trope, as he literally just sounds like a bad Kermit impression. Go crazy, just make sure you can make it sound half-serious somehow.
- english
- male adult
That won’t be needed! Everyone, turn your attention to mee! (Shouting)
Kill another person and get away with the crime, and you’ll be on your way out. (Serious)
…I’ve been doing some appreciative thinking exercises lately, so I’d assume- (Nervous, cut off)
