Persona 4 Golden: The Retelling
Project Overview
This is a project aiming to retell the story of Persona 4 Golden told from the perspective of the Yu Narukami character established in the Persona 4. The ideal is to create a version of Persona 4's story that not only expands on Yu Narukami as a character, but the entire Investigation Team's individual members as a whole. Another goal of this is to retell the story in a different manner than most "Retold" or "Rewrite" videos on YouTube would offer.
This call is for the last characters that we need as well as some back ups in case something goes wrong. When posting your audition please leave your discord in the description as that is how l will be contacting you.
Please do 3 takes of each in 123-123/ABC-ABC format
Thank you and good luck.

Yukiko Amagi is a rich and elegant young woman who is popular with boys and girls alike. At first, Yukiko is very introverted due to not being accustomed to becoming the local Inn's heiress, but she gets livelier after she is rescued from the Midnight Channel.
She also truly appreciates her friends and cares about them, as well as her parents and staff from the Inn, and is shown to be very selfless and supportive, often vowing to become an even stronger, more dependable person so that one day she, in turn, will be able to support and protect them just like they have done to her in the past.

Living alone with his daughter, Dojima is shown to be a hard-working detective, although he often becomes a workaholic. Adachi notes that he is a particularly harsh supervisor to him, but Dojima is a seasoned detective and takes his job seriously and is merely training Adachi for their line of work. While he loves his daughter, he has difficulty being a father to her, especially in wake of his wife's death, whom he states that Nanako resembles in both appearance and personality.

"This town is my town. It's the place where you and Nanako live. That's why I'm gonna live on, protecting this place. As a detective... as a father."
Heh. You probably don't remember, but we've met. l've changed your diapers before, you know.
I'm Ryotaro Dojima, the one who's going to take care of you.
Marie is an assistant of the Velvet Room. Befriending Marie will help the protagonist realize the potential of the Aeon Arcana, eventually enabling him to summon the Persona Kaguya.
When Marie is first met, she seems to be a very cold and antisocial individual. She is sullen, cranky, sarcastic, irritable, very foul-mouthed and often prone to mood swings. She will not hesitate to voice her opinion or express her thoughts, regardless of how it would make everyone feel. The team is also weirded out when she politely apologizes, commenting that she never seemed like the type who would say sorry.
When flustered or embarrassed, Marie tends to speak rapidly and insult the source of her embarrassment, like "shutupIhateyouyoustupidjerk!"

Rise is cheerful, outspoken, naughty, cute and is quite boastful about herself, although very sweet deep down. She is referred to as a "dangerous girl" by Chie Satonaka, due to her boldness in flirting with the protagonist, and her teasing of Yosuke Hanamura and Kanji Tatsumi. Rise is quickly annoyed by the smallest things, which ends up with her crying dramatically, and sometimes producing crocodile tears. She's rather childish and possessive; she once pouted and told the protagonist he mustn't call another girl "cute." She has also shown her competitive side on many occasions, and she’s mocked Yukiko Amagi’s insecurity and her cooking.

"There are five enemies! Don't let 'em get you." (Encountered 5 enemies)

*squeals* "Senpai! That was soo cool!" (Protagonist dodges attack)
Yosuke is a clumsy transfer-student who arrived six months before the protagonist. He is often the target for jokes about his lack of muscles and body strength. He fights with blunt, double-handed objects such as wrenches, but more so knives and kunai.
Yosuke doesn't usually think before he says something, which results in him sticking his foot in his mouth, and unintentionally insulting someone, including Kanji Tatsumi about his sexual orientation.
He tends to be a bit of a wannabe ladies' man and has a fascination for girls, forcing the girls to enter a beauty pageant. But beneath most of that (more so in the original game), he shows great insight with decent deducing, and is often on task with the situation on hand, and can be very serious at times. He also tends to keep a good face in order to make sure the team is in their best spirits and he cares a lot about the protagonist, as well as having a strong sense of justice.

Distance doesn't matter to us! Even if we're separated we're still friends!
I want to tell Saki-senpai something. That what's important... isn't where you are. This town I hated so much? Now, I love it. There's still nothing here, but I have family and friends... and you. The important things are never far off... They're all around you.
Watch it, you! I probably knew that deep down, but I couldn't bring myself to actually believe it. I wanted so desperately to try and fit in, I pretended things were cool. Sometimes, even I think I'm a pain in the ass. But no matter what, my feelings for Saki were real.
Chie is energetic and outgoing, the "extrovert" compared to Yukiko being the "introvert." She has a bright and upbeat personality, often trying to cheer up the group by joking about the case. She can be somewhat short tempered, especially with Yosuke, and is slow to back down from a challenge.
Chie, in a way, could be considered a "tomboy." She is obsessed with kung fu and is a huge fan of martial arts movies, most prominently Trial of the Dragon. She also has a poster of Bruce Lee in her room. Chie's wish is to become a police officer some day. Chie's cooking skills are horrific and her cooking tastes generally unpleasant, causing them to be labeled as Mystery Food X.
Chie's biggest insecurity is her jealousy to someone with a better background than her, which is one aspect of her unhealthy relationship with Yukiko in which both of them are secretly guilty of hiding their true feelings from one another. After years of being with Yukiko who is treated as wealthier, more popular, more feminine, scoring higher grades in school and having more male admirers, Chie gradually develops an inferiority complex in comparing herself to Yukiko and is jealous of all the male attention Yukiko receives.

The people back then, the things they did, their culture... it's all connected, and it's tied to me too. It's not just something that happened a long time ago in a faraway country. Real people laughed, cried, and... died there. —Chie before awakening to Haraedo-no-Okami
There's parts of me that I'm not really proud of either. Horrible things that I'm really ashamed of. They don't matter! Listen! I will always be there for you! That's a promise! Cuz you're my friend!
Yukiko... I won't leave you. Listen, I have to tell you something, and it's very important. This isn't easy. See, the truth is, I've always been jealous of you. You had everything, Yukiko. And I had nothing. That's why I loved how you depended on me. You actually needed something I had. I liked believing that I needed to be there to protect you. It gave me a purpose.
A well-known detective, Naoto was dubbed the "Detective Prince" by the media. She is first mentioned when the department which Ryotaro Dojima works has no lead upon their investigations for the bizarre murder case, resulting in Dojima's superiors employing Naoto to assist them, an action which greatly disturbs Dojima. Furthermore, Naoto claims that the only reward she wants for solving the case is the truth, and wants no assistance from other departments, further annoying Dojima.
Naoto later enrolls at Yasogami High School, immediately attracting the admiration of others. However, her serious nature often leads to her ignoring her admirers and classmates
The Investigation Team eventually manages to detect Naoto's location in the Midnight Channel, an industrial secret laboratory, and sets out to rescue the detective. The Secret Laboratory symbolizes Naoto's insecurities, that she fears being ratted out as a woman and getting her reputation sullied in the police force as a result.

People can't live alone. If you give in and sever your ties to human society, it will naturally become hard to live in it. Yet you refuse to face life and admit your fault, running from your own humanity like a coward. And though you claim to find life troublesome, you caused nothing but trouble for many others! Your twisted logic is that of an immature, egotistic brat!
The enemies have fallen! Let's finish them off! (All-Out Attack prompt)
Go, Yamato Sumeragi! (Enemy weak to attack/Critical with Phys Skill)
