I need to recast the main character; Kyo Kitsuno, and a minor character; Tsubuto Koshi. There are links to the previous projects so you can get a reference of how the character is supposed to sound.

Below is the original description for the first SoulShift project:
SoulShift is an animated action/drama based in Sinpride, a massive floating city-state. The series focuses on Kyo Kitsuno, a sixteen-year-old high schooler who's lost interest in everything. He's pessimistic and rude to almost everyone and isn't interested in his future in the slightest. His mother is a depressed alcoholic after his father died on the job. Kyo's life changes when he discovers his power: Soul Shift. With this power, he is able to create a person or a Soul with just his mind. What led him to discover this power was when he accidentally created Mikou Akime, his vision of the perfect girlfriend. SoulShift isn't the only Shift power out there, as Kyo and Mikou meet various individuals with different abilities, such as Endus Yumi, Risuki Hisukawa, Nakaraya Sudama, Titania Scarlet, and Syca Jewel.
In addition to voice actors, there are other roles available. This will be a long ongoing project, so I hope you have a lot of patience. More roles and information will come out when I can post, meaning the deadline you see here will keep being extended, so don't worry, you have time. I'm taking a big risk with this project since it may or may not even get that many views, but the important thing is that I tried. If you're willing to take the risk and put in your all, this project is for you.
You MUST have Discord, so you can join the production server I'm going to start. If I decide to pick you, I'll send you my Discord so we can add each other. The server's main purpose is to establish chemistry with everyone on the team, so voice acting sounds more natural and production has proper communication. If you're shy, now's your chance to break out of your shell.
SoulShift Lore
If you're a guy or gal who likes to do their homework, I respect that. Can't relate, but I still respect that. This lore section will be divided into sections so everything you need to know is nice and organized.
Sinpride
There are various sections within Sinpride. The first is Monet, the entertainment/financial district. Malls, shops, restaurants, movie theaters, supermarkets, hospitals, electronics stores, you name it, Monet's got it. The next is Indus Prima, the industrial district. Full of factories. New Fiona is the residential district in Sinpride. This is where 99% of the population resides. Tons of houses, apartment buildings, and mansions. The last section is Old Fiona, the previous residential district abandoned about a century before the events of the show. Old Fiona was evacuated due to unknown causes until a group of researchers recently attempted to see if it was inhabitable again. 19 out of 20 disappeared, including Kyo's dad.
Academies
There are many educational facilities located in Sinpride, but the show will only focus on a few. One of them is Catalyst Academy, an average high school that the protagonists attend. Its student body is the worst quality about it, but I'll show that in the show. Another academy in Sinpride is Titan Academy, one of the most prestigious schools in the state. The Scarlets own this school. A school year in Sinpride starts in January and is split into three semesters. It is also year-round. For grade levels, it goes like this:
Shift Powers and Demons
I don't wanna spoil too much here, so I'll only explain the basics. Shift powers are the abilities to shift reality in some way. A Shift wielder can change/create things like emotions, weapons, time, mass, etc. Where these powers came from is a secret, though (sry). In this world, there are four things that humans can't manipulate or tame: Love, Hate, Life, and Death. Creatures called Demons are attracted to these things. There are individuals who monitor these things, who we call The Four Administrators of Humanity. Demons are blind and are almost deaf, but their scent is above all their other senses. Demons were recognized but humanity centuries before the present in the show but disappeared, so humans now just see them as ancient news, and some even want to believe that they are still out there somewhere...
Continuity
Kyo (Key-o) is unmotivated in life. He has no life plan, which is the reason why he doesn't try in school. He is actually quite bright, but all his classmates see him as unintelligent. He lives alone with his mother, who is an alcoholic because Kyo's father died in Old Fiona. Kyo is sarcastic and pessimistic, while also having no friends. His day-to-day is just going to school every day with perfect attendance since that's the bare minimum to graduate, and then he plans to get a job to support himself and his mother since she has completely shut down and doesn't provide for them. When he's speaking normally, he usually sounds disinterested.

Previous VAs to get a reference:
1. Hold on. You’re just ‘looking out for me’? When we first made this ‘deal’, you claimed that as soon as I used my 3rd freebie, I’d have to do something for you. I still haven’t been told what that would be by the way. So how the hell can I trust you?
2. Well pal, congratulations. You've been using magic to charm women this whole time.
3. Geez dude, grow a pair.
4. You come to a maid cafe to do homework? What, you watch porn for the plot, too?
5. Can you leave me alone? I’m NOT okay, is that what you wanna hear? I can’t have a single day of peace because of this Demon shit, my mom’s probably off somewhere getting piss-ass drunk, and now I’m most likely gonna flunk outta school because I haven’t paid attention to a lesson in three years. If I’m being honest, I hate my life right now.
6. *calling out to activate power* SOUL SHIFT!
Tsubuto Koshi (Sue-Boo-Toe Koe-She)
Age: 36
Height/Weight: 5'6" / 139 lbs
Hair Color/Eye Color: Peach/Blue
Tsubuto Koshi is the wife and mother of Agaro and Surako Koshi, respectively. She doesn't like her husband's gambling addiction with their money and tends to shelter her daughter to keep her safe from the real world. Tsubuto is basically a grown woman who never really grew up. She is a mother with a troubling marriage in her mid-thirties and should sound as such.
No, you haven't! You just don't want to work hard for anything. You just want to take the easy way out. That isn't how life works, you loser!
NO! Just quit this gambling and look for a job you deadbeat!
Friend? Since when, exactly? I thought we told you friends were a waste of time.
Sumato is a Shift vessel who was created for the sole purpose of being smart, and he is very prideful of this. He is very condescending and enjoys talking down to others and making them feel intellectually inferior, and he isn't afraid to point this out. His voice should sound like a normal guy in his early twenties, but with an edge to it like he is always bitter about something when speaking to people.
1) My only reason for existence is to be observant, Mikou. I’d be a pretty unsatisfactory vessel if I was ignorant, wouldn’t I?
2) If simply speaking to each other proves too difficult for you imbeciles, then perhaps a more unorthodox solution is viable.
3) Anghebi (Aang-gebb-ee) are cunning, elusive, and deceitful. I have no doubt in my mind that they didn’t flourish together. They most definitely betrayed one another until only one remained. Personally, they are my favorite kind of Demon.
4) They are the most intelligent Demon species that we know of. Of course, Demons will always evolve, but that’s something for another time. Not only are they intelligent, but they are powerful. The power of an Anghebi is said to be able to give one the knowledge to gain whatever they want. I must warn you though. The term ‘ignorance is bliss’ isn’t said for no reason. I would actually advise that you don’t seek this Demon out at all.
This mainly focuses on the character animation, with other aspects being minimal. The program where I get the models is Vroid Studio; it's free. I capture the poses in the program and put them together in editing software to form an animation sequence. Episodes past the first will look way different because Vroid's stable release came out after the fact and the look of the models changed. All of them are remodeled. The pay is $100 per episode; there are 11 more episodes in Season 1. Pay is through PayPal, but can be changed if needed.
