Maken-Ki! Abridged
Project Overview
Hi everyone! My name is eccentricDuelist and this is the casting call for my very first project, Maken-Ki Abridged. I'm an aspiring voice actor and have been wanting to do an abridged series all my own for some time, but until recently have lacked necessary equipment. Anyway, Maken-Ki is one of my favorite action/ecchi series and I think this project will be a fun way for myself and others involved to possibly make some headway in the VA/Abridging community. More roles will become available with time.
Note: I'll be voicing Takeru myself, which is why his character isn't listed.
RULES:
1) Serious applicants only! I intend to do the whole series so anyone who auditions should be prepared to see this through to the end.
2) Mic quality: as little static/background noise as possible. Prior experience is not necessary but I'm a bit of a stickler about sound quality.
3) Enthusiasm is recommended required. I want everyone involved to genuinely enjoy this project.
4) Communication: Must have Discord for group work and line recordings. (Link to the server: https://discord.gg/jM2T7DD)

I've created a Discord server to make collaborating easier; it's probably more efficient and accessible than a public Google Doc. I really want to try and get this thing moving so the invite link is here: https://discord.gg/jM2T7DD

The future of Maken-Ki Abridged
First, I want to thank everyone who's submitted auditions thus far. So as you've all probably noticed by now, I keep moving the deadline back due to lack of applicants. It'd be kinda unfair of me to leave those who've applied so far in the dark about where this will go, but as I said in the description I can't lock in anyone until a script is ready. To speed that up, I've made a Google doc to be used for line collaborating. I thank you all for your patience despite what little traction the project has gained since it started. (Here's the link to the doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TdpojYeKxQR1zXEvfckLRtmCqbx9dgie85-OW94AIgE/edit?usp=sharing )
(Again, serious applicants only) Applicants for this can comment on the project or PM me on here with your ideas; this could be your chance to shine!
I can't write for the life of me, so in order for this project to get off the ground I'll need the most help here since we obviously can't record anything without a script (max. 2)
Need an editor, preferably one experienced with AMVs and/or can cleanly sync lips (max. 1)
I need a voice director so all the lines flow smoothly (max. 1)
A second-year at Tenbi and VP of the Maken-ki. Also Takeru's childhood friend, she's in love with him but can't be honest with herself around him. However, she gets quite jealous when he receives the affections of other girls.
I gotta go help prepare. The entrance ceremony will be held in the gym. Don’t fuck around, okay?
*teeth clenched* Fiancée, my sweet ass. Who does she think she is, dropping in out of nowhere and try to claim my man?
Takeru? Are you there? Where the hell is that idiot? Ughhh, screw it.
A second-year at Tenbi and the obligatory loli. She is foul-mouthed, quick to violence when angry, and rather self-conscious about her chest compared to the other girls'. She hates perverts and loves being in control.
(clearly pissed) What was that?!
Takeru's best friend and fellow letch (for lack of a better word). He is madly in love with Himegami and her violent tendencies, to the point that he's a total masochist. (Think Andre from Prison School)
*Say something you think would fit*
"Harder mommy"
Takeru's self-proclaimed fiancée, she also is quite in love with him and isn't afraid to show it, much to Haruko's ire. She loves cats and is somewhat on the slow side.
*Say something you think would fit*
The PE teacher and newly-appointed principal of the academy, Minori loves her vices (namely drinking) almost as much as showing off, much to the ire of the female student body. However, being a former Maken-Ki member she is no slouch in terms of fighting prowess. Despite not being the most responsible person, she can rise to the occasion when the situation calls for it.
*testing the PA mic, audibly tipsy*
Test, test? Is this thing working? Hello? Hellllloooooo?? *burps*Garrett, Azuki, show these noobs how we settle things here in Tenbi.
Look at all these fresh new faces. Name's Minori. First things first: I have the biggest chest in this entire school, and don't any of you forget it.
Rich and spoiled with above-average battle chops, she has a haughty attitude and thinks herself above others, especially Azuki. The pair’s intense rivalry has become locally famous.
Shouldn't you be narrating KonoSuba Abridged?
Please, you can’t expect anyone to take you seriously with that accent; you sound like you were raised in the woods...or should I say desert?
President of the Maken-Ki. The closest thing to a voice of authority in the academy, but is easily embarrassed by her girlfriend Yuuka.
*annoyed* Is she drunk again?!
*authoritative* The veep's right, Principal. The opponent should be changed.
*at a loss for words* So...what now?
