"Symphogear FNF: A Friday Night Funkin' Mod" Voice Acting Auditions
Project Overview
Welcome to the official page for the upcoming Friday Night Funkin' X Senki Zesshou Symphogear mod: Symphogear FNF!
What is this?:
To be put shortly, this mod combines Friday Night Funkin’ with the Action/Sci-Fi/Magical Girl Anime: Senki Zesshou Symphogear (The mod taking place in the world of the game “Symphogear X-Drive Unlimited”, or Symphogear XDU for short.)
As someone who has enjoyed Symphogear for the last couple of years, I have decided to show my appreciation for it by making a Friday Night Funkin' mod dedicated to the show in question, so I look forward to working with anyone and everyone who is willing to work with me on this mod.
Plot Synopsis:
"In this mod, Pico gives Boyfriend and Girlfriend a mysterious device he found while walking around town. He had no idea who it belonged to, so he decided to give it to them and be done with it.
However, Once he leaves, BF and GF are suddenly transported to another universe where they find themselves as test subjects for a device that allows people to fight using the power of music.
In order to test this device, BF and GF must challenge the Valkyries of the Squad of Nexus Guardians (Or S.O.N.G. for short) to rap battles while also having to deal with their various weaponry, ranging from close quarters combat gauntlets to laser beams that would wipe you off the face of the Earth. Of course, it’s only a couple of teenagers/young adults, so how hard could it really be? (If only they knew what they were really up against...)"
What am I looking for?:
Voice Actors/Actresses: For this mod, Voice acting is a key factor. However, with Symphogear not having an official English dub, it's left me in a place to where I to have an idea for how each character sounds, so I'm willing to see how you, the voice actors/actresses, would interpret them.
For each character, I'll leave a set of links to examples of the character's Japanese voices (keep in mind that some of the examples may be spoiler heavy in nature, so viewer's discretion is advised.), as well as links to examples of other characters in various animes/games that I feel sound close to what I would like to see for them. Please keep in mind that the examples listed in each role is solely from my perspective and you're free to use whatever example you feel fits the character better or to come up with your own variation of the voice based on the Japanese voice actress' performance (or in the case of the FNF characters, whatever voice you feel like).
(And of course, when auditioning, please provide either a discord or twitter handle so that I may be able to add you on either site to send scripts to)
*The Roles for Boyfriend, Girlfriend, and one of the version 1 opponents, Chris Yukine, have already been casted
Any questions?:
If you have any questions regarding the mod or future updates for it (as I am planning on having more roles for future updates), please feel free to contact me on discord at TheSSGCorrin#8743 or on twitter at @TheSSGCorrin

Hibiki is one of the main characters and the protagonist of Symphogear who wields the relic known as Gungnir. Hibiki is outgoing, friendly, and overwhelmingly optimistic. While she is a formidable fighter in hand-to-hand combat, she prefers to seek a more peaceful solution to conflicts as much as possible. However, while she does her best to be positive, she has moments where she tends to be sensitive on certain topics, such as her past or she has moments of self-doubt brought about through her various fights within the show. Despite this, she tries her best to be a positive person (even if she has to fake it to do so).
Example of Hibiki's JP VA, Aoi Yuki: (Hibiki at school)
As for the idea of how I feel like she would sound in English, I feel like her voice would be somewhere along the lines of Claudia Lenz's Kana from Fire Emblem Fates (Female Kana example) and her voice for Sumia from Fire Emblem Awakening (Sumia example) (Both voices are from Fire Emblem Heroes)
However, feel free to share your own idea of how Hibiki would sound.
(Calm at first, then happier for the second line) "It alright. Everything is just fine."
(Determined) "If Miku and I's singing is what you need to test your new project, Elfnein-chan, then we'll sing until our throats are sore!"
(Apologetically) "Hehe... Sorry about that, Elfnein-chan. I was in such a hurry that I forgot I even had it with me when we left. Here, let me just-" (Concerned) "...Oh, crap! I must've dropped it while we were in that other world! I'm so sorry, Elfnein-chan!"
Miku is another one of the main characters and the deuteragonist in Symphogear and is the wielder of the relic known as Shénshòujìng in Symphogear XDU. Miku is a helpful and cheery person in her everyday life, always wanting what's best for her friends and allies, Especially Hibiki, even if she teases her every now and then. For Miku, Hibiki's well-being takes top priority, doing everything she can to support her and give her the encouragement she needs, to the point where it's borderline possessive (Albeit, she keeps that possessive streak hidden from the others). But even while she does what she can for Hibiki's well-being, Miku knows that Hibiki's desire to help others will always be there, so when she can't be with her, she does what she can to make sure Hibiki always can come home to the warmest place she knows: Her sunshine.
Miku's JP VA, Yuka Iguchi (Miku and Hibiki on a date)
For her English voice, I see her somewhere between Stephane Sheh's Histoire from Hyperdimension Neptunia (Histoire Example ) and Julie Kliewer's Florina from Fire Emblem Heroes (Florina Example)
However, I'm interested to see how you decide to interpret her voice.
(Curious) "Is there anything Hibiki and I can assist you with, Elfnein-chan?"
(Affectionately) "Whether it's with a Symphogear or without, I'll always enjoy being able to sing with you, Hibiki."
(Bluntly) "To be fair, Hibiki, it shouldn't have been too hard to remember to give Elfnein-chan back her device before we left. After all, it was in your hands as we were leaving for the Gjallarhorn."
Elfnein is S.O.N.G.'s Alchemist who is in charge of making sure the Symphogears and their Wielders are up to snuff and ready to deal with any challenge ahead of them. She is timid, but very smart. While there are times when Elfnein has doubted herself, she doesn't easily give up on the problems presented to her. And while she has had moments where she was scared to act, Elfnein is no stranger to risking her life for the sake of the people of S.O.N.G., who she cares deeply for.
Elfnein's JP VA, Misaki Kuno (Elfnein Voice)
For her English voice, I feel like it would sound something like either Xanthe Huynh's Haru Okumura from Persona 5/Royal/Strikers (Haru Example) or Marianne von Edmund from Fire Emblem Three Houses (Marianne Example )
However, feel free to interpret her English voice however you see fit.
(Relieved) "Hibiki-san! Miku-san! I'm so glad you're here! I was wondering if I could have your assistance for a project I'm working on?"
(In the middle of explaining a project she's working on.) "Once this device is finished, it should be able to act as a pseudo-Symphogear for either you and the other Wielders, or for myself and the other members of S.O.N.G."
(Shocked) "The retrieval protocol worked! I honestly didn't think it would reach across alternate worlds."
Pico is the antagonist of Friday Night Funkin's third week and a supporting character in the seventh week, with plans on him being a protagonist in the game's future versions. Pico is seen as confident, curious, and trustworthy by the people who he considers to be his friends and allies. However, to someone who isn't as close to him, he is seen as aggressive, ruthless, and unstable in nature. Pico is paranoid of strangers, which makes him view them as untrustworthy upon first glance, leading to him being very sarcastic and insulting in conversations, should said strangers wish to speak with him. Despite this, Pico does try to be reasonable to people he doesn't view as nothing more than a threat to him and his allies and is willing to apologize for outbursts caused by his explosive temper to said people.
For his voice, I feel like something along the lines of RecD's Pico (RecD Pico) or Jakeneutron's Pico (Jakeneutron Pico Soundfont) would work.
Of course, please feel free to interpret Pico's voice however you wish.
(Chill tone) "Oh, fancy seeing you both here. Although, since you are here, I have a question for you. Specifically for your girl."
(Apathetic tone) "Look, I could care less what you and your girl decide to do with that necklace. Keep it for yourselves, find its owner, whatever. I was just gonna pawn it off for cash anyway." (When asked why he doesn't just do that) "Considering I found it in a dump of an alleyway, I doubt it'd be worth much anyhow."
(Mockingly) "Yeah... Because I'm gonna believe the women cosplaying a knock-off Power Rangers who say that my life is in danger. What's next? Is some monster going to show up out of nowhere and try to kill me?"
