Project Overview
I want to make a simple short in "Gag Manga Biyori" Style ( An example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_OOQAjqioc lol, sorry I couldn't find a better one... )
So traditional manzai style comedy, (outrageous, random, and fast-paced) that essentially just amalgamates several inside jokes I have with online friends! It will indeed be a trip of randomness, as the story revolves around a humble little cherry that simply wishes to be a mangaka! But alas, his past cannot be escaped as he was formerly a Demon Vampire Demi-God whose father is satan himself! (though in order to try and remain more neutral, well just say "Demon King" instead of Satan) And as such, his prospects slowly dwindle at the publishing company as random things begin happening and the situation escalates.
That aside, this is just a short project, and is a good chance to just practice or do something silly! Let it also be said that it is a requirement that ALL CHARACTERS BE ABLE TO SPEAK FAST. It's simply the style, so if you can't speak too quickly without trouble, i'd suggest you stay away from this audition (though your completely free to try as you never know! I may love your voice so much that ill overlook speed or work extra hard to edit it!
Please keep in mind that i may change a few things (most likely going to add minor characters) so if you didn't make the cut for that specific character, another one might pop up! You may contact me and send auditions to this email:[redacted]
Feel free to audition as much as you'd like (REMEMBER TO SPEAK QUICKLY! but don't get carried away lol) The estimated due date is July 1st (NOW HAS BEEN EXTENDED AND SET TO THE 16th).
A big hug and thanks to anyone who decides to try out for this craziness XD (Yes the cover picture is from the animation)
NOTE: The drawings for the roles are veeerrry quick sketches. It'll be a bit nicer for the real thing.

-Male, nasly mid-high range voice. Kind of annoying voice. (not quite whiny either, though he complains a lot)
-Impatient publishing company editor whom is very critical of others personal lives (kind of nosy and assuming). He's renowned for being harsh with his clients. Has an apparent obsession with Hideaki Anno, comparing everyone to him.
"Your manga (neutral)....IS TRASH! (angry)"
"W-What even is the point...Anno Senpai says that the industry is going to die anyways (sobs annoyingly)"
"PASSION~!" (exaggeratingly, as though it were a magical girl transformation...)
-Male, Mid-high range. Somewhat shy and reserved, like a stereotypical worthless main character! He has good intentions.
-Loves Cherry and has known him since they were young. Secretly wants cherry all to himself, but isn't a bad guy.
NOTE: *Could easily be played by a girl*
"NOOOOOO!!!! Cherry!" (desperate)
"I'm sorry...I just couldn't stand the thought of another man having you!"
"My dear cherry....(small sob) someday....I'm going to bake you into the most delicious of cheesecakes"
-Female, mid-high range
-A distant family member of cherry. They happen to get along quite well though they often can't unravel just how they are related. She is very kawaii and "real" with cherry, though she attempts to remain supportive of cherry. She considers cherry a senpai and good friend.
"I believe in you Cherry Senpai!" (cute and genuine)
"Were.....cousins? No....that can't be right. Just ask your dad-err, mom" (innocently confused)
-Female, mid-range
-Very independent and somewhat manipulative. Usually gets what they want in the end and likes to brag about cherry's birth story. Although she is somewhat self centered in what she wants, she gets along very well with cherry and they like to gossip together and is quite straight forward and blunt in her replies (which can often times come off as crude). She is very mischievous at times and often forgets to tell cherry of things or looses track of time.
"Ooh~ whoops my mistake" (somewhat aloof and ignorant of the messed up situation)
"Cherry~ cherry~ cherry~....Of course I don't care. I disowned you ages ago! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" (blunt, the laugh crude and uncaring)
"Hey Mr. Publisher! Maybe you'd think otherwise if I told you how he was born" (crude and mischievous NOTE: The birth story is supposedly disgusting)
-Male, mid-deep range voice
-A humble little cherry that is soft spoken and hard to anger. He gets nervous and anxious at situations and reacts quite exaggeratingly to situations. His default resting face looks similar to the "Yaranaika" meme face.
"All i ever wanted...was to meet my idol. Him! (pause) The Fairy King, Araki Hirohiko!"
"Nonononono, thats COMPLETELY wrong" (monotone and slightly annoyed)
"His obsession is far greater than mine! If we were to go face to face at a showdown where our undying love transformed into energy he'd kamehameha my head off!" (nervous and off put)"
-Male, mid-deep range. Stereotypical cool upper class-men and somewhat soothing.
-Cherry's precious Senpai. he is stereotypically cool with that Hollywood swagger and DASHING good looks!
"K-Kouhai...I believe in you!" (cooly)
"Ah~ Why am I...SO DARN HANDSOME!!" (Extremely exaggerated NOTE: This is within Cherry's imagination.)
"Look Cherry, Im a piggy!" (innocently)
