[URGENT] Puyo Puyo Fever 2: Chu! ~The Wikkid Fandub!~
Project Overview
Several VAs have dropped out of the project! As such, we’re seeking a replacement ASAP.
Please remember to listen to the voice references in the video above! Since this is a fandub, pacing your lines to match the original is a necessary skill.
This project
This project will be a video series of all cutscenes of the Medium (WakuWaku) and Hard (HaraHara) stories (plus some bonus content). It will provide dubbed audio, and updated translations to adhere better to the official localization style of Puyo Puyo Tetris and its sequel.
Source material
Puyo Puyo Fever 2 is the Japan-exclusive sequel to Puyo Pop Fever. It has a vibrant art style with a cast of characters just as vibrant, who interact in wacky cutscenes.
The game contains 9 story lines, one for each of the 3 protagonists, for each of the 3 difficulties:
- The Easy difficulty (RunRun Course) is a tutorial level, and contains no plot. (Out of scope)
- The Medium difficulty (WakuWaku Course) centers around the visitor Lemres arriving to Primp Town, and Prince Salde gaining, then losing, his fish-like form.
- The Hard difficulty (HaraHara Course) centers around Amitie’s classmate Klug being possessed by an ancient demon in the book, while everyone else is probably not concerned enough by it.
A complete playthrough of WakuWaku and HaraHara courses can be seen in this playlist.

Voice Actor
Feli /ˈfɛli/ {FEH-lee} is a student at the same school as Lemres. She appears to be younger than the students in Amitie’s class. She wears black dresses with frills and ribbons; combined with her face and short stature, she is reminiscent of a porcelain doll. She is skilled at all things related to occultism, such as dowsing with her divining rods, hexing, and divination (She is seen using an ouija board in her losing graphic). She has a great deal of admiration and an unstoppable crush for Lemres /ˈlɛmrəs/{LEM-ress}, her sempai in both the Japanese and Anime definitions. She is often seen with her loyal canine creature Baldanders, whom she accidentally summoned one day. She speaks confidently and cryptically, but is sometimes seen as creepy or unfriendly.
Feli is a supporting character, accompanying Lemres to Primp and providing some exposition to the main cast. She appears in 3 cutscenes.
Direction note: Completely different from Puyo Puyo Tetris. Self-assured delivery, but a tone that conveys that she is younger than Amitie.
[Scene: Raffina asks Feli whether a prince happened to pass by.] “A prince? Ah, the Prince of Pisces. I hear Lemres has transformed him into his desired form. It’s much too easy for him to change man into fish.”
[Scene: Feli is in the middle of casting a hex, but notices that Amitie has seen her. She frantically questions her.] “<i>*startled gasp*</i> You! How long have you been here? And what did you do with Bal? Don’t tell me you’ve done it to him!”
[Scene: Ending of Raffina’s story. Feli is annoyed and jealous that Raffina was treated so nicely by Lemres, her crush.] “Your niceness... It’s too much...!”
Voice Actor
Hoho is a large bipedal bird obsessed with superheroes. He poses as a superhero himself, and speaks in a loud, excitable tone.
Hoho is a minor character, appearing in 2 cutscenes.
As always, the original voice lines can be heard from the reference video.
[Dramatic Entry.] “Mm-hmmm!! If you want to pass... you’re in for a heated battle with this superhero right here!”
[Hoho Bird gets hit with a barrage of fireballs.] “*intensely painful shriek* [He falls to the ground, defeated.] Mommy... I’m still your hero, right...?”
“A boy with glasses was just showing off a shiny stone to me! If I had that, my power could be even more super! Whooaa...! I want it so bad!!”
Voice Actor
Otomo /əˈtoʊmoʊ/ {o-TOH-moh} is a soft-spoken young butler of Prince Salde Canarl Shellbrick III /ˈsældə kəˈnarl ˈʃɛlbrɪk ðə ˈθərd/ {SAL-deh can-ARL SHELL-brick the third}. He is timid and polite, and is motivated by a great deal of protective love for his prince.
He is a supporting character.
Please listen to the reference audio for the first two lines.
“Excuse me, young lady! If you don’t mind me asking, have you happened to see a prince nearby?”
[cheerfully] “Prince Salde Canarl Shellbrick III! I’ve found you at long last!” [the Prince escapes] “Ah! Your Majesty!” [Otomo falls to his knees and weeps] “*dejected weep* Alas... I must search for him anew...”
[No reference clip, custom-written line]
Excuse me? My name is Otomo. I’m the loyal butler to the Ocean Prince. Speaking of which, have you seen him? [calling out] Prince Salde! Please come back!
Voice Actor
Tartar (previously “Tarutaru”) is a rotund giant who goes to Primp Magic School. He likes interacting with nature, and has a crush on Raffina, over whom he often loses his composure. He is one of the largest characters in the game, and it should show in his voice resonance.
Tartar appears in 3 cutscenes.
Direction note: Looking for some kind of “from the countryside” vibe, unlike what he sounds like in Puyo Pop Fever’s dub. I personally think a Scottish accent could fit.
[Amitie asks Tartar how his new class is.] “Raffina’s seat is right behind mine. During class, Raffina keeps looking at me all the time.” [Tartar gets lost in his fantasies.] “Maybe, Raffina, has feelings for me? Raffina must surely like me a lot!”
[Tartar asks Sig where Raffina is, but he says he doesn’t know.] “Really? *giant’s sniffing* So why do I smell Raffina from your clothes?”
[Tartar finds Raffina and happily talks to her.] “Raffina~! The day after tomorrow, we’ll be on day duty for class.”
Voice Actor
Lemres /ˈlɛmrəs/ {LEM-ress}, alias The Comet Warlock, is a magic student in a neighboring town and a magic prodigy. He is confident, friendly, and suave, but mysterious. He is always seen smiling and speaking in a soft, disarming tone. He aims to bring smiles to people’s faces, and often expresses that by handing out sweets and baked goods, which are the source of his mana (as well as his first impression as “suspicious”.) He comes from a noble family of dark mages, but he seems to feel disdain towards his lineage, and prefers to use light magic.
He is one of the key supporting characters of the story, who brings the key items to Primp Town.
He is older than the main cast of students; official documents have stated that the position between Amitie and Lemres is similar to that of a junior-high student and a senior-high student. If I had to pin an age on him, I personally consider him to be somewhere between 16 and 22.
[Recurring line.] “Why hel-lo there~”
[Scene: Lemres meets Sig in the dunes.] “Listen, you don’t need to hide it. You’re here because you’re... stranded, right? Hm hm hm~ I know, I know so well. To tell you the truth, I’m here because I’m... stranded, as well!”
[Scene: Lemres meets Amitie in the ruins.] “I lost a couple artifacts on my way to Primp, and it looks like Klug got possessed because of that. I couldn’t just let myself sit back and watch.”
Voice Actor
Sig /sɪɡ/ {SIG} is a nonchalant student and a classmate of Amitie’s at Primp Magic School. He speaks in a flat, soft tone of voice, is unfazed by most things, and lives life at his own pace. He is fascinated by everything to do with insects, and spends lots of time in the woods. He does not show much emotion, except by twitching his antenna-like tufts of hair. His left eye and arm are red and demonic, but he doesn’t know why, nor does he let it bother him. He specializes in blue magic.
Sig is one of three protagonists of the game.
Direction note: His voice should sound closer to the original Japanese (before pubescent voice breaking) instead of Ben Diskin’s interpretation (after pubescent voice breaking) in Puyo Puyo Tetris.
[Scene: Amitie asks Sig about Prince Salde, who is accompanying him.] “I get to have three meals, a nap, and, uhm... I get some other stuff too. Neat, right?”
[Scene: Tartar insists that he could smell Raffina on Sig’s clothes, and keeps asking where she is. Sig keeps answering that he doesn’t know, gradually getting more confused/bothered.] “I’unno.” - “I don’t know why.” - “I really don’t know!”
[Scene: to Raffina, in the ruins.] “I don’t think you should go in there. It didn’t feel so nice.”
