Introduction
Welcome to my fandub for the "Dragon Quest: The Adventures of Dai" manga. These dubs are for fun, but I am striving to create a good quality product for each one, to give the cast involved something to be proud as well as ourselves. We know it's not always easy getting experience, and I want these projects to be a high quality project for people of any experience level to either just have fun doing or so people wanting to get more experience and for everyone to have something they're proud of to share. This is one of multiple dubs that are up or will being posted in the coming weeks. We are trying to build a surplus of videos up before they start going up in June. That way it will give the long term VA's for any of the projects some leeway if things come up down the road and they can't meet deadlines. Once June hits there will still be some coming up every so often but the majority of the projects for the next few months at least will be being listed this month or the beginning of April.
What I'm Looking For
Due to this and future projects like this being fandubs, unfortunately I am not able to offer monetary compensation due to copyright. Although it is unpaid though I would like to still have a level of professionalism and quality to the project. So I will be looking for people with:
- Because this is a very long series, please audition for the main cast or supporting characters that reoccur later on, only if you are willing to commit to a long term project. Other than the main crew the commitment isn't overly large for supporting characters but we would like to avoid having to change later on. If you aren't able to commit to long term though feel free to audition for extras, minor roles or supporting roles that do not reappear later in the story, so we don't have to recast if you have to leave.
- Good quality microphone, preferably XLR but if you have a USB mic do not let that deter you from auditioning since it is the sound quality I'm looking for and that's still definitely achievable with some USB mics.
- Little to no background noise, reverb or echo. Some we can definitely work with but if there is too much of any of these it greatly takes away from the quality of the audio and can be very jarring to listen to when mixed in with other audio.
- Discord is definitely preferred but not mandatory by any means but will make things much easier to work on the project as a whole.
- A good attitude! I'm hoping to form a great group of people to continue working with me on these projects going forward and that is obviously much easier if you can get along well with me and the rest of the team!
Parts
Considering the size of this manga, there are a lot of roles that are available and will continue to be available going forward. Aside from the main roles, many of which we still need to cast, we have a large need for many versatile VA's for voicing many of the minor and extra characters. If you are auditioning for a bigger role, feel free to let us know in your audition that you are interested in voicing extras as well. If you have a demo reel feel free to send that on the extras listing or you can send it to me directly on discord as well.
If you would like any feedback regarding your audition as well please let me know when you post it and I'll be happy to give feedback to anyone wanting some asap!
We have also started a discord channel for Echo Audio Productions for this project and many more manga and video game dubs going forward. Feel free to join the server to keep up to date on this project as well as be the first to find out about more projects in the future! We do have a designated server already for this project since it was already active before I took over, so if you are cast I will send you a link to that one as well.

Last but not least, thank you for taking the time to check out my project and we are looking forward to hearing your auditions!
