{UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II: SYS CELES} Exs: English!
Project Overview
Ever since I learned how to mod Under Night In-Birth 2, I've always wanted to make an english fandub for it since it didn't get the cast from Blazblue Cross Tag to return. And that's exactly what this is!
Under Night In-Birth 2's fandubbing process will include lines for all modes!
At the moment, I'm currently hunting for:
Voice Actors/Actresses. (I may hire before the due date as well!)
Sound Editors.
Potential Video Editors (to advertise or whatnot).
Translators.
And of course, players! If you aren't interested in creating the mod, playing it will be just as important! :D
Uzuki, Hilda, Sion Eltnum Atlasia, Akatsuki, Chaos, Gordeau, Kaguya, Izumi, Yuzuriha, Enkidu, Byakuya and Kuon have already been casted.
As of 7/6/2025: Hyde is now open for grabs!
To audition, you must be 16+. Any format works too!
Each auditioner may only get 1 potential character (Excluding the chosen Eltnum VA due to Eltnum sharing a VA with Uzuki and directly referencing it.)
A Discord must be provided for each audition, for that is where most (if not, all) resources will be.
To help with Auditions, here's some pronunciations to help!
Licht Kreis is said like "Lyk-t Kry-ss"
Ritter Schild is said like "Rit-ter Shield"
Hekatoncheir is said like "Hekk-a-tun-kair"
EXS is said like "Exis"

The sound editor will be responsible for applying filters to voicelines, making sure volume and quality are well, and ensuring that the voices of the project shine their brightest.
*Say something you think would fit*
The Video Editor is an occasional position that'll help with gameplay and promotional footage for the dub, showing off the dub in it's full glory.
*Say something you think would fit*
Since the game is fully dubbed in Japanese (And I'm not bilingual), I will need some help assorting certain lines with their respective English translations!
