Melty Blood: Type Lumina || ENGLISH FANDUB - Final Casting
Project Overview
This is a fan dub of Melty Blood: Type Lumina, the latest entry in the Melty Blood series. Type Lumina is the first reboot installment in the franchise, following the continuity of the Tsukihime Remake series and taking place ten days before Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon-. This project will be an English dub mod for the game and it will release alongside a relocalization of the game due to the original localization being unfortunately poor.
The deadline for this project is September 25, 12:00AM Eastern Daylight Time. If CCC lists the deadline as passed but this time has not yet been reached, your audition will still be counted.
All actors will be contacted through Discord or email within three days after the audition period closes. From there, you will have three days to confirm your role. If you do not reply within that time, the role will be offered to the next person in line.
AABBCC is preferred but all formats are accepted. Please do not record more than three takes per line and please do not slate. We do, however, accept demo reels.
Each auditioner may only be cast as one character unless otherwise noted. This is primarily to avoid double casting. Please include your Discord name with your audition, as Discord will be the main platform used for resources and project updates.
To audition, you must be 16 or older.

Akiha Tohno (ah-kee-ha • toh-no)
After the death of her father, she inherits the role of leader of the Tohno family, a distinguished house in Souya. One year younger than her brother Shiki, she arranged for his return from the Arima family. Her flawless etiquette and bearing perfectly epitomize the daughter of a noble house. She is strict even on herself, rejecting such things as modern-day amusements and frivolity. Because of her prideful and strong-willed nature, many find her difficult to approach. Sensing a mysterious presence in her town, and determined to uphold the Tohno family name, she sets off into the night to investigate...

(Irritated, dignified) "Are you satisfied? ...Seriously, you truly are a troublesome person... I wish you wouldn't cause me so much trouble."
(Proud, self-assured) "I'm even more impressive than I thought. If I'm this good, there's no reason to ever refuse to fight."
(Composed, formal) "Well, that was a productive use of my time. Do take care."
Ciel (see-el)
The Holy Church, a major religion in Europe, does not take kindly to heresy. Ciel works as an executor for its specialized force known as the Burial Agency. Her calling? Hunting and destroying heretics in the name of the Lord. Like Arcueid, she wishes to destroy her mortal enemy and has come to Souya in search of him, deciding to blend in by posing as a regular student at the same high school as Shiki. She currently attends school as a senior, one year above Shiki, and is quite popular with many of the students there. They see her as both warm and cheerful. Her go-to lunch from the school shop is curry bread, and her favorite restaurant serves the best curry in town. (Shares a voice with Powered Ciel.)

(Lecturing) "The more you resist, the more it's going to hurt. How many times is it going to take before you learn your lesson?"
(Bright, matter-of-fact) "Holy Father, your will shall be done. There! All finished! Being an executioner sure works up an appetite! Time to head over to Messiaen!"
(Polite, yet merciless) "Very well. That overconfidence will be your downfall. If you desire real pain that badly, then I suppose I'm the most qualified woman for the job."
Hisui (hee-su-ee)
A maid for the Tohno family, responsible for household chores (except cooking) and taking care of Shiki. She is Kohaku's younger twin. Unlike her sister, she is known for wearing more modern, non-traditional clothing. Her quiet nature makes her true feelings difficult to read, and her formal way of speaking has led Shiki to see her as being rather mechanical. Her fighting skills are not quite on the same level as her sister, but she holds her own well enough.

(Polite, admonishing) "You should fix that temper of yours. Learning some proper manners would be good for you."
(Soft-spoken, apologetic) "Oh, my. I am terribly sorry. I'm not very comfortable with others touching me..."
(Formal, dutiful) "You seemed as if you wanted an earnest fight, so I did not hold back. Was it satisfactory, Lady Akiha?"
Mash Kyrielight (mah-shh • ker-ree-eh-light)
A girl summoned from a parallel world. A member of the Security Organization for the Preservation of Humanity, Finis Chaldea, Mash is a being known as a demi-servant: a successful fusion of a human body with a Heroic Spirit. Her Servant Class is Shielder. Her role is to jump to the point in spacetime of a problem in human history and resolve it, using the technology known as Rayshift. Her hairstyle covering one eye is a key part of her fashion style, she also has a cute face, forthright personality, and honest, trusting character. Mash has learned about concepts like good and evil, and the purpose and significance of human life over the journey toward restoring humanity. In combat, she is excellent on defense and agile, using an immense shield much larger than she is. She also has strikes and throws using her shield, as well techniques like kicks that launch her entire body from her shield. In this title, an unforeseen error during Rayshifting brings her to an unintended destination, into a nest of mysterious creatures in a world she knows nothing about.

(Earnest, determined) "Category: threat to humanity... I must fight you."
(Gentle, curious) "No, nothing like that... I just think it's neat how I'm not Rayshifting for once. But Neco-Arc, is this really a city of evil that poses a threat to all cats?"
(Warm, admiring) "You came, not from many stories but just a single one, a story not set in Chaldea, right? You're radiant."
Ushiwakamaru (oo-shi-wah-kah-mah-roo)
The youthful form of the swordswoman who later stunned the world as Minamoto-no-Yoshitsune.
Her Servant Class is Rider. Training to become a samurai at a young age, she met the onmyoji Kiichi Hougen and was granted the arts of war. With the arts of war added to her natural physical abilities and skill with the blade, she grew into a peerless warrior. However, this caused her elder brother, Minamoto-no-Yoritomo, to distrust her and her life came to a tragic end alongside her retainer Benkei. In battle, Ushiwakamaru dashes about with few restrictions, making dazzling use of her versatility. However, in some situations she is prone to saying "it all ends if the enemy general falls," forcing her Master and Mash to dash after her. Upon being summoned from the Throne of Heroes, she saw not Chaldea, but the Japan of the 21st century. It is the opening of a new chapter of The Wandering Tale of Shana-oh.

(Introductory, straight-forward, heroic) "Servant, Class Rider. I, Ushiwakamaru, have answered your summon. That is my true name before I became Kuro Yoshitsune, but my skills are no less for it."
(Eager, questioning) "I see... Mash is nearby. Then I shall sheathe my blade... for now. But why are you speaking strangely? If you summoned me, you must know this land's tongue."
(Powerful, Final Blow) "Leave my sight! TENGU WIND!!"
