About the Project:
This is a fan-made, non-profit abridged parody of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. This is for my personal channel and generally for fun. We have the script for the first episode ready and are looking for dedicated voice actors to help make this project come to life! This is a long-term project as we plan to parody the entirety of demon slayer in parts. This is a passion project, no monetary gain — but full credit will be given to all voice actors and crew.
Warning : This abridged parody has content that may not be suitable for everyone! The script contains lots of dark humor and jokes that can be sensitive to viewers; if you are not comfortable with this I recommend not auditioning.
Requirements:
Clear audio with minimal background noise
Committed to a long-term project
Able to deliver lines in WAV or MP3 format
Casting is determined on acting and voice match ability, please use voice references provided if needed
Willing to take direction and do retakes
Discord for communication
Strictly 18+
Audition Format:
AA - BB - CC format preference but along as your audition is clear we won't dismiss other formats. Please do not slate in your audition but in the description you must include your age and discord (we only contact through discord)!
Deadline:
08/26/2025 at 12:00 AM (EST)
-- Due date may change --
Other:
See a missing character? They are more than likely either already casted (my personal friend group got first picks on characters) or they are included in the extra roles. Feel free to ask if you are unsure though!
If you get casted as a non-extra role you may be asked to participate in extra roles if we are needing them; this isn't required but we would really appreciate if you were willing to do so if asked.
Audition lines used are mostly actual lines from the anime, our script is more humorous than serious but we still would like you to have emotion in your audition lines.
Discord server will be linked here once it's made, it's currently in the works!
If you have any questions, please ask!
Thank you everyone who auditioned, and congrats to those who got picked! Casting is officially over and we will be moving onto getting lines out for our cast to voice.
If you didn't get picked feel free to still join the discord and come chat with us! <33
Thanks again,
Kitty

[determined, conclusive] "If… if I can’t decide, I’ll just flip this coin. But… maybe this time, I’ll choose on my own."

[threatening, fiery] "That's right! And that wind... is going to wrench off your head!"
