(sorry for being lazy with some stuff😅)
Hey everyone! We’re looking for some fresh voices to help bring our characters to life. Don’t let the character descriptions or audition lines intimidate you—this is all about having fun and exploring these characters in an easygoing environment. Honestly, we might just end up saying brainrot. Feel free to play around with the lines and bring your unique spin to them! It’s all about finding the right vibe for each character, so just relax and enjoy the audition. Looking forward to hearing you all! This is also not going to be super professional quality, but I look forward to your auditions!
People who don't care and just want bare facts>>>> After casting we'll do some character intros, (I'll try to build hype) and then we can just make funny videos with the characters (maybe making fun of anime idk) shouldn't be too much of a time commitment if you're concerned about being tied down with deadlines.
P.S Make sure to add discord in audition
Thank you to everyone following the project! Soon I'll be uploading a character intro and choosing the VAs so stay tuned. There are so many talented submissions to go through! Also consider subscribing to the YouTube channel once I create it (pretty please with an oreo on top)

Background: Zaira is a sharp-minded and highly ambitious. To some arrogant, to others perfect, she holds herself to impossibly high standards and expects others to meet them as well. She views herself as superior, both in intelligence and discipline, and firmly believes she can "fix" those who don’t measure up. Emotion rarely clouds her judgment—she values logic, efficiency, and self-sufficiency above all else. Her cold and calculating demeanor often leaves her seen as unapproachable.
(Calm, smug, matter-of-fact) “I told you this would happen. But, by all means, keep ignoring me. It’s been amusing watching you fail.”

A perfectionist to his core, he holds himself and those around him to high standards, refusing to tolerate disorganization, indecision, or laziness. He’s a natural leader who finds fulfillment in setting goals and solving problems efficiently. While he values tradition and productivity, his intense work ethic often leads to stress.

(Tense, frustrated, letting his anger out but still controlled) “Unacceptable. I never fail."
Voice: Soft, dreamy, and a little detached—like someone who’s always half-lost in thought. She speaks at a gentle, slow pace, as if her mind is floating somewhere else while she talks. Her tone is warm but carries an air of mystery, like she knows something others don’t.
Fumiko is a whimsical and introspective fortune teller who drifts between reality and the world inside her head. She’s deeply fascinated by the meaning of life, often losing herself in daydreams and fantastical ideas rather than confronting who she truly is. However, she’s self-aware enough to recognize this about herself. She values individuality and emotional depth, seeking meaningful connections with others and encouraging them to open up. Though she avoids conflict, she has a quiet wisdom that makes her an enigmatic presence to those around her.
(Dreamy, distant, as if recalling a vision) “It’s funny, isn’t it? How we chase after fate, only to realize it’s been leading us in circles the whole time.”

Wakashi is a quiet, introspective artist who keeps his sketchbook close and his emotions closer. He’s deeply creative and expressive, but he doesn’t believe in love the way others do—he sees it as something fleeting, something that inevitably fails. To him, longing for it only leads to loneliness. He values authenticity above all else and has little patience for people who are fake or superficial. While he may seem detached, the truth is, he feels things deeply—he just prefers to let his art speak for him.
(Unimpressed, flat, slightly sarcastic) “You really think that’s deep? Wow. Yeah, no, totally life-changing. Someone get this guy a trophy.”
(Softer, more thoughtful, as if speaking to himself) “Sometimes, I wonder... would I be popular if I cared about more things than art?
(Tired, resigned, but with a hint of sadness underneath) “Love, huh? Yeah… Good luck with that."
Voice: Reki’s voice is bright, playful, and full of energy. She speaks quickly, with a charismatic and flirtatious edge, always sounding like she’s in on some juicy secret. She should have a charming and expressive tone, making every word feel exciting, even if she’s just talking about the weather. Medium to high pitch, lively, with a teasing, sing-song quality at times.
Reki is the life of the party, a free-spirited social butterfly who thrives on excitement, drama, and new experiences. She sees life as a thrilling game, and she should have fun while it lasts. Loyalty isn’t exactly her strong suit, and she has no problem moving on when the moment calls for it. Her impulsiveness often leads her into situations she can’t easily escape. Despite her flashy, gossipy nature, she secretly wants to find someone who can outshine her.
(Playful, flirty, teasing) “Oh, come on, don’t look at me like that! We had fun, didn’t we?"
(Dramatic, gossipy, like she’s sharing a scandalous secret) “Okay, okay, but listen—if I were her? I’d be running so fast, you’d only see my heels in the distance.”

While his confidence can sometimes be too much, he’s magnetic and hard to dislike, drawing people in with his effortless charisma. However, his aggressive tendencies can get the best of him, especially when things don’t go his way.
(Cocky, playful, teasing) “Oh, you’re trying to beat me? Cute. But let’s be real—you never stood a chance.”
(Frustrated but still keeping up his confident act) “Tch—what, you think this is gonna stop me? Please. I live for a challenge.”

Voice: "gentle and warm" but annoying because you want to slap her(not really dw), teacher's pet ahhh
Hates everyone, imagine an annoying hr rep and all they do is passive-agressive remarks that are close to being agressive. Would be cute if she learned to be nice smh
(Passive-aggressive, with a sweet smile) “Oh, bless your heart! You’re really trying, aren’t you?

(feigning sadness) "People don't like me? Gosh whatever shall I do?"
Voice: Could do an accent, but open to whatever, whether high pitched or low and culture
Mischievous but lovable crackhead energy. Refers to herself in 3rd person. Lives for thrills and gives Junko Enoshima. Also maybe foreign personality

(Cheerful) Enami would like another drink! *snaps* Oops, Enami forgets sometimes that she left servants behind"

Voice: Oka’s voice is bright, bubbly, and effortlessly warm. She speaks with an inviting tone, making every conversation feel like a heart-to-heart. She has a soft, gentle lilt to her voice, with a tendency to sound just a little too excited about things, especially when discussing relationships. Medium pitch, full of warmth and enthusiasm, but can dip into a more thoughtful, quiet tone when she’s feeling self-conscious.
Oka is the ultimate people-person—warm, friendly, and always ready to lend a listening ear. She’s the type who remembers your birthday, checks in when you’re feeling down, and somehow manages to be everyone’s friend. Type to friendzone accidentally. Though she radiates positivity, she struggles with the weight of expectations and self-doubt, constantly seeking external validation. Deep down, she fears losing everything she’s built—her friendships, her support system, and the connections that make her feel whole.
(Excited) "I can’t wait to see where this goes!”
(Supportive, reassuring) “Hey, don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re doing your best, and honestly? That’s more than enough.”

Myoshin Taniguchi possesses a deep sense of empathy. He’s passionate about his friendships and seeks to create close, supportive bonds, often overloading himself emotionally in the process. Myoshin is the type to take everything personally, especially when it comes to his friends or family, and he can be a bit of a drama king when he feels hurt or misunderstood.

(Disappointed, sincere) "I hate feeling like I’m just here, floating around."
(Excited, confident) "I’ll do everything I can to make it work. You’ll see!”
Voice: A little quiet, but also normal (everyone else is crazy or extreme in comparison)
Calm, quiet and observant. Yayako tends to avoid social situations and struggles with expressing emotions, but she’s not without her ways of interacting. A little manipulative, but in a logical way, not evil. She believes in playing the best version of oneself and relishes in the intellectual and emotional challenges that come with it.
(A hint of competitiveness, with calm confidence.) You think you can handle this challenge, or is it too much for you?”
(Detached, logical, almost like a quiet lecture.) “People make so many mistakes because they’re driven by emotion instead of logic. It’s simple really. Do you want to be right or do you want to be understood?”
(a hint of vulnerability, soft but thoughtful.) “I’m not good at this, you know… expressing feelings. But maybe, just maybe, talking about it like this… makes it a little easier. Do you think we could try that again?”
Voice: Chill, almost like a beach frat boy, but something about him just intimidates you... (NOT BLIND BTW) Medium voice
He is known for his laid-back, chill demeanor. He doesn’t stress the small stuff and prefers to take life one step at a time, especially enjoying the occasional break in between long stretches of hard work. He values his independence above all else. His ideal life involves constant movement and exploration, which is why traveling is the best part of his life.
(polite) Gotta enjoy it while it lasts. Thank you, I'll make the most of it.
(Casual and nonchalant, almost a little dismissive but with a faint smile.) "You can’t expect everything to be deep all the time. It’s good, but... it’s not everything.”
(Firm but calm, straightforward)“You know what I can’t stand? People who can’t be counted on. You gotta do what you say. Simple as that. Don’t make promises if you’re not gonna keep ‘em.”
Voice: Polite, almost eager voice, but knows when to be quiet. A little higher pitched than the average voice.
Straight As, kinda nerdy, He thrives on routines and fulfilling his duties, taking pride in his sense of responsibility. Likes reading, etc
(nervous confidence) “It’s all about strategy – no reason I can’t win."
(matter-of-factly) "If you aren't predictable, how will people know what to expect of you?"
(embarrassed, a little awkward) "Sorry, I didn't even hear you come in! Did you need me to leave or...?"
Voice: Sharp, quick, and fast talker, assertive tone. A little animated, like a used car salesman.
He thrives on intellectual stimulation, expression, and the thrill of the journey. Known for being a fast-talking debater, he questions authority at every turn, preferring to challenge the status quo rather than follow the beaten path. His greatest fear is exhaustion. He loves pushing boundaries and inspiration. Also a good writer, just loves debate overall.
(Spoken with a quick, confident tone, as if debating a point without hesitation.) “Course I could win… but I’m not going to sacrifice my ideals to do it. Why bother if it means becoming like everyone else?”
(some frustration) "What’s the point in living if you’re not constantly evolving?”
(Said more quietly, a(Brief vulnerability breaking through)"I don’t want to be vulnerable—especially not for someone else’s benefit.”
Voice: A little extra cutesy, innocent, easily on the verge of tears, Soft, giving "homeschooled girl's first day of high school"
She is constantly seeking to help others and make a difference in the world. Her greatest fear is being forgotten. She cannot handle criticism, as it feels like an attack on her very identity. Despite her desire to help and be understood, she often struggles with putting her own needs first, which leads to self-sacrifice and emotional neglect. Basically, a crybaby and the type to get bullied.
(quiet uncertainty) “I hope he’ll like my tune. He’s gonna be awesome, right?"
(hesitant joy) "You mean... you want to listen to me sing?"
(relief) "I was so worried you were gonna yell at me." *relieved small laugh*
Voice: Deep, with an angry edge to it, even when he's not mad. Authoritative voice, like a secret service agent vibe.
Disciplined class president and natural leader, maintains strength and seriousness at all times. Hates weakness.
(confident and prideful) “Victory would be a great honor. I have no doubts that the esteem of the Akiyama name will increase.”
(sharp) "Every action must be measured, every decision made with precision. We have no room for mistakes.”
(Said with a rare, subtle hint of appreciation) "When you stand by my side, you empower me. That is what loyalty means.”
