LEAD RECAST | Hitman REBORN! MangaDUB
Project Overview
KATEKYOUSHI HITMAN REBORN! MANGA DUB
Summary
Tsunayoshi Sawada is a 14-year-old middle school student with a reputation of being ‘Loser Tsuna’. His grades are embarrassingly low, his athleticism is nonexistent, and his confidence is so low that he’s intimidated by a chihuahua. His ordinary life is suddenly upended when a baby named Reborn arrives, claiming himself to be a hitman and his new home tutor. Tsuna is the chosen 10th boss of the largest mafia family in the world, the Vongola, and it’s Reborn’s job to a respectable and strong mafioso.
Introduction
I've been wanting to do this project for a long time as Katekyoushi Hitman REBORN! is my all-time favorite manga. However, while well known in Japan it doesn't seem to have much presence here in the west. Not many seem to know or at least have heard of it before. It had an anime that never got dubbed and while I'd like to dub it, it doesn't hold up due to animation and censorship and also ends before the last two arcs of the manga. For a while, I've wanted KHR! to get more love, whether it be through a anime reboot similar to HunterxHunter or a continuation/sequel of the manga. Hopes were high when the author, Amano Akira's, most recent series elDLIVE was promoted with a video that included new animation for KHR! Unfortunately, since then there's been no more news about it. TL:DR I want to give my favorite series the love I feel it deserves by producing an English dub of the manga!

Age: ???
Character:
Despite his infant appearance, Reborn is highly respected within the mafia world and regarded as the world’s strongest hitman. A trusted friend of the current Vongola boss, he is tasked with training and molding Tsuna into the next head of the Family. Even though he can be strict or harsh and his teaching methods...intense, Reborn genuinely wants his students to become their best selves. His demeanor is nonchalant and eccentric, saying and doing some of the most outlandish things. Whether he's serious or messing with Tsuna is hard to tell at times.
Vocal Direction:
LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO VOICE MATCH THE PREVIOUS PERFORMANCE FOR CONSISTENCY.
High; Reborn speaks very matter-of-factly and while appearing to be a baby talks from experience.
(Reborns signature greeting) "Ciaossu~"
(Teaching/hint of pride; Tsuna asks Reborn why he didn't tell him about the Dying Will Bullets other effects) "I figured you might start depending on a magic bullet to solve your problems, so I was reluctant to mention it. But today, you proved you could face your obstacles without relying on the bullet, Tsuna."
(Bragging/Matter-of-fact; explaining his connection to an assassin who is infatuated with him, whether he's serious or not is hard to tell) "I’m quite popular with women. Bianchi was my lover."
(Nonchalant/Threat; preparing to shoot Tsuna with the Dying Will Bullet) "Don't get me wrong...our relationship...is that of a hitman and his target."
