Talentless Nana Manga Dub Project
Project Overview
Talentless Nana Fandub
As a media and film student, I have always had a passion for working as a team on projects. I wanted to combine my love for manga, and media together to begin creating fan-dub projects, alongside my partner Brad, who is a talented editor, and film-maker. I want this project to be an opportunity for passionate individuals to come together! I will be cutting down certain scenes if I don't think that they are suitable, as this will be posted on Youtube.
Also, please audition for as many characters as you'd like!
Requirements:
- I don't mind what software or microphone you use, as long as the quality of your voice is consistent, and there's little to no background noise.
- Myself and Brad are both 18, and as the manga is quite gory, we'd like for anyone auditioning to be 16/17+.
- Please be committed to this project, and be able to meet deadlines.
- If you're rude or inappropriate to anyone else working on this project, you will be kicked off immediately.
- Please leave your discord @ in your audition so we can contact you with more information if you get the role.
- If you have any other questions, feel free to message me on Discord: @Ch3rrytalk.
Plot:
One day, a new student named Nana Hiiragi arrives at the school. Her friendly and cheerful personality lets her quickly make friends with the class. In reality, however, Nana is a Talentless government assassin who has been dispatched to kill the Talented, whom the government deems to be the true Enemies of Humanity.

On the surface, Nana seems like a sweet, clumsy and caring girl, who cares deeply for her peers. However, when the story continues, we discover Nana is a ruthless, selfish killer, who shows no remorse for the people she hurts.
For her voice, when she's putting her cheerful façade, she's got a high-pitched, sweet voice. Almost so sweet that it's off-putting. When she's being her true self, her voice is a lower-tone, serious and no-nonsense.

(Spoken with her cheerful façade) Hi! It's nice to meet you, my name is Nana.
(Spoken as her true self) I will take on the role of leader, and take control of the school.
(Spoken as her true self) There'll be no need for me to feel shy about killing you!
If you're looking for a loner, with an intelligent brain and a mysterious presence? Kyouya is your guy. He's not up to date with the latest trends, and finds himself in awkward social situations. He's observant, introverted and honest.
Kyouka's voice has to be medium-low. Very serious, yet charming. Feel free to add your own twist onto this character, I'd love to see you make him your own!

If the goal of the enemy is to kill us, then I possess an insurmountable advantage
Hiiragi's whereabouts are always unknown whenever someone dies
Stay back, Inukai. Hiiragi is the culprit after all
Nanao is a sweet boy, who's shy and doesn't think very much of himself. The expectations that his family have set for him, make him feel inferior to others around him. He doubts himself and his abilities, often called 'normal' by his classmates, which is an insult when he's surrounded by such cool people.
I want Nanao to have a medium-high voice. I want him to sound quite unsure and nervous.

I don't think I'm all that great, to be honest.
I hope that you see something in me that I don't see!
Stop calling me normal! I have something to prove too, just like the rest of you.
Jin Tachibana is a smart, sly individual, who is smartly dressed and is extremely mysterious. Yet, Jin is not what he seems. He hides a deep secret, which could shake up the school. He is deadly, and not afraid to betray anyone who comes in his way.
I have a reference for how I would like Jin's voice to sound, but these are just references, so your voice doesn't have to be exactly like this! It's just how I pictured his voice to sound. Preferably, I'd like his voice to be a bit more expressive than this clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbBwBjQtBlg

Earlier I said it was difficult to establish a power balance in a conflict between talented individuals, but there is an exception. I am this exception
As many as there are talented. Every possible kind of talent. If all I could do was transform... I couldn't have survived such a bloody war of psychics
This school is mine.
Tsuruoka is the main antagonist in our series, who is a pathological liar with a deep hatred in his heart for the Talented. He has experience in the army, and is currently working for the government for no benefit, but his own.
For Tsuruoka's voice, I would like a serious, deep and mature voice. Very scary, very unsettling.

Didn't Hiiragi teach you that the talented are the true enemies of humanity?
The talented are the true evil of this world.
I will eliminate every talented person if it's the last thing I do.
As sweet as pie, Michiru is a loyal and caring friend. She'll always put other's needs before her own as protecting her friends is her number 1 priority! A lot of her fellow classmates think she needs to think for herself more, but Michiru is more than happy to follow the lead of her friends.
For her voice, I would like a high pitched, sweet voice with lots of heart behind it!

Don't worry, I'll be your friend no matter what happens!
This situation is so scary, I wish we knew what was going on.
My ability is to heal others! If you ever get hurt? Just let me know and I'll be on my way!
Moe is childish, silly and lacks morals. Despite this, she is very friendly and cares very deeply for her grandmother. She might not have a talent, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't play a crucial role in the story.
I want Moe to have a sweet, friendly, high-pitched voice.

Nana, I'd like to see you do something cool sooner rather than later.
My grandmother is the reason I'm still here today!
Of course, I'd love to be friends with you.
Youhei is a prideful guy, who is full of ambition. He really wants to save the world, and with his courageous spirit he really believes he can do it. Unfortunately, Youhei is extremely trusting in others, and can often get blind-sighted by others plans.
I'd like Youhei to have a medium-low voice, which sounds very kind, powerful and reassuring. Unsure if any of you have seen Danganronpa or My Hero Academia, but this guy is very similar to Ishimaru or Tenya. Feel free to search up those characters for reference!

I know that I can change this world!
I'll never give up, no matter what.
I feel your spirit, let's work together until the end.
Yuuka is head over heels in love, and isn't afraid to tell anyone and everyone! She's sweet, has lots of friends and very overprotective of her boyfriend, Shinji! But is that sweetness just a cover-up for her secretly obsessive nature?
I picture Yuuka with a medium sounding voice. Despite her being a feminine character, I can picture her with a fairly rough, raspy sounding voice? Something similar to this: https://www.google.com/search?q=iruma+miu+voice+lines&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB933GB933&oq=iruma+miu+voice+lines&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCggCEAAYhgMYigUyCggDEAAYhgMYigUyCggEEAAYhgMYigUyCggFEAAYhgMYigXSAQgzMTYzajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:25ffbdd1,vid:ImOCymgLyB0,st:0 . That's just an idea though, if you think you've got a voice that suits better, give me your ideas!

Don't you just love being in love? I seriously can't live without Shinji.
We're you talking to Shinji? It's not a big deal or anything, I'm just... curious, that's all.
My talent is super strength! I can open a hole to your heart with just a touch of my finger!
Kirara is a gyaru, who is fashionable yet mean-spirited. She often found teasing and bullying Michiru with Kaori, who is her best friend. Her ability to poison others, just like a snake.
Kirara has a medium-low voice, that still captures a sense of femineity. I want her to sound like someone you wouldn't want to mess with!

I didn't steal your freaking contact lenses, Kaori! Stop blaming me before I get angry.
Stop crying Michiru!
Doesn't that Nana girl kinda creep you out?
Kaori is a mean-spirited bully, just like her best friend, Kirara. She's also a gyaru, and loves her fashion. She wears contact lenses and always has her nails painted. Her talent is teleportation, and she takes a lot of pride in herself, and her talents.
For her voice, I would like a simple medium voice, that sounds harsh and spoiled.
(Currently trying to find a good photo of her from the manga, sorry about the anime photo usage)

Kirara, where did you put my contact lenses? I swear to god, if you've stolen them, I'm going to be so angry with you.
What's wrong with wanting to look good?
Yeah, that Nana girl is weird.
Moguo is a fiery, delinquent who's never afraid to speak his mind. If something angers him, he won't hesitate to use curse words and will quickly resort to violence. His talent, which is being able to control fire, suits his personality perfeclty.

Shut up, Seiya. You know you don't wanna mess with me!
Yeah, I got sent here after one of my buddies burned down my school, but I got the blame for it.
What's my weakness? Ha. Stupid question. I don't have any weaknesses.
Full of flamboyancy, Seiya charms the school with his ice powers, which he can freeze any object with. He's fairly kind, but very full of himself and confident in how he looks, his talent and how he presents himself in general.
For this character, I am looking for a medium tone voice, which is flamboyant, dramatic and over-the-top.

It's a pleasure to meet you, but It's more of a pleasure for you, to meet me.
I can freeze any object I like.
I am NOT a girl.
