Project Overview


Yoriichi vs Upper Moons


This is a fan-made, non-canon Demon Slayer animation project.

The story takes place inside the Infinity Castle and follows Yoriichi Tsugikuni as he faces several of the Upper Rank demons before eventually confronting his brother, Kokushibo, in the final and most important battle of the project.


What I am currently looking for:

I am currently casting Voice Actors for both English and Japanese versions of the project, for Sound Designers and Animators.


Important Information

This is currently an unpaid fan project.

Good communication and reliability are very important.

Some parts of the project contain spoilers for Demon Slayer anime viewers, so please keep this in mind before applying.

Role assigned to: KhantactVA

Yoriichi Tsugikuni is the protagonist of this animation. He enters the Infinity Castle alone and faces the Upper Moons before finally confronting his brother, Kokushibo.

Yoriichi should sound exceptionally calm and composed.
His final conversation with Kokushibo should reveal a quieter, deeply sorrowful side of him.


Voice description:
  • male adult
  • I never saw you that way. When we were children… I admired you.

  • It was never about strength. You left long before I did.

  • A quiet inhale and controlled exhale, as if preparing to attack.

継国縁壱は、このアニメーションの主人公です。
一人で無限城へと足を踏み入れ、上弦の鬼たちと対峙し、最後には兄である黒死牟と向き合います。

縁壱の声は、非常に穏やかで冷静沈着な印象を求めています。
黒死牟との最後の会話では、普段の静けさの中にある、深い悲しみが伝わる演技をお願いします。

  • 「私は一度も、兄上をそのように見たことはありません。幼い頃……私は兄上に憧れていました。」

  • 「強さの問題ではなかった。兄上は……私よりずっと前に、離れていってしまった。」

  • 攻撃に備えるような、静かな息継ぎと落ち着いた呼吸。

Role assigned to: Sean_KazuVa

Kokushibo is the primary antagonist and emotional centerpiece of the final act.

After watching Yoriichi effortlessly eliminate the other Upper Moons, years of resentment toward his younger brother finally surface.

His dialogue should not be screaming rage. Kokushibo is disciplined, controlled, and intimidating.

Throughout the confrontation, that control should slowly crack, revealing jealousy, inferiority, obsession, and regret.

Voice description:
  • male adult
  • (Controlled with Resentment) “So… even now… you stand without effort. Every demon I have fought beside for centuries… erased in moments. And you do not even breathe heavily.”

  • (Frustrated) “I trained. I bled. I sacrificed. But you… were simply born complete.”

黒死牟

黒死牟は、物語終盤における最大の敵であり、感情面でも重要な中心人物です。
縁壱が他の上弦の鬼たちを圧倒的な力で次々と倒していく姿を目の当たりにし、何百年もの間、弟に対して抱き続けてきた憎しみと劣等感が、ついに表面へと現れます。

彼の台詞は、ただ怒鳴り散らすような激しい怒りではありません。
黒死牟は規律を重んじ、感情を抑え、冷静でありながら威圧感のある人物です。

縁壱との対峙が進むにつれて、その冷静さが少しずつ崩れていき、嫉妬、劣等感、執着、そして後悔が徐々に露わになっていく演技を求めています。

  • (抑えた口調の中に、長年の憎しみを込めて) 「そうか……今なお、お前は何の苦もなくそこに立っている。何百年もの間、共に戦ってきた鬼たちが……一瞬で消え去った。それでもお前は、息一つ乱していない。」

  • (苛立ちと積み重なった悔しさを込めて) 「私は鍛えた。血を流した。すべてを犠牲にした。だがお前は……ただ、生まれながらに完成していた。」

Douma should sound friendly and playful
After Akaza's severed head lands at his feet, Douma reacts with exaggerated sympathy before casually kicking it away. The performance should feel unsettling because his pleasant voice does not match the situation.

  • (Cheerful/mock sympathy) “Oh my… how unfortunate. Poor Akaza-dono… you tried so hard.”

  • “Don’t worry. I’ll avenge you.”

童磨は、親しみやすく、楽しげで軽い口調で話すキャラクターです。
猗窩座の斬られた首が足元に転がってきても、大げさでどこか芝居がかった同情を見せ、その直後には何事もなかったかのように首を蹴り飛ばします。

この場面では、状況の残酷さとはまったく釣り合わないほど明るく穏やかな声で話すことで、不気味さを感じさせる演技を求めています。

  • (明るく、芝居がかった同情を込めて) 「まあまあ……なんて残念なんだろう。かわいそうな猗窩座殿……あんなに頑張ったのにねぇ。」

  • (軽く楽しげに、まるで大したことではないように) 「心配しないで。ちゃんと仇は取ってあげるよ。」

Akaza enters the fight genuinely excited rather than afraid. Unlike the demons before him, he sees Yoriichi's strength and immediately wants to fight him.

  • “Incredible… Tell me your name. I want to remember the man who stands before me.”

  • "I saw what you did up there. Such overwhelming strength… yet I can’t sense a single trace of fighting spirit from you."

  • "Technique Development... Final Form"

猗窩座は、縁壱を恐れるのではなく、その圧倒的な強さを目の当たりにして純粋に興奮し、戦いを望みます。
それまでの鬼たちとは違い、縁壱の強さを見た瞬間から、彼と戦いたいという強い闘争心を抱きます。

  • 「素晴らしい……名を聞かせろ。俺は、目の前に立つお前の名を覚えておきたい。」

  • 「さっきの戦いは見ていた。あれほど圧倒的な強さを持ちながら……お前からは、闘気が一切感じられない。」

  • 「術式展開……終式。」

Kaigaku is the first demon to challenge Yoriichi. He is arrogant, aggressive, and completely convinced that his speed will overwhelm him.

獪岳は、最初に縁壱へ挑む鬼です。
傲慢で攻撃的な性格をしており、自分の圧倒的な速さなら縁壱を簡単に倒せると完全に信じています。

  • (傲慢に、相手を見下すように) 「こいつが……噂に聞いた伝説ってやつか?」

  • (攻撃的に、自信満々で) 「俺が動いたことに気づく前に、消してやる。」

  • 「雷の呼吸……参ノ型……聚蚊成雷。」

Hantengu is suddenly dropped directly onto the battlefield and immediately panics.

He sees himself as an innocent victim.
His performance should be cowardly, paranoid and hysterical.

  • (Panicking) “Why is he looking at me?! I’ve done nothing wrong!”

  • (Almost crying with fear) “This isn’t fair! I don’t want to die!”

  • Screams

半天狗は、突然戦場へと落とされ、すぐにパニック状態に陥ります。
自分のことをまるで何も悪いことをしていない被害者のように思い込んでいます。
演技は臆病で、疑い深く、取り乱したようなヒステリックさを強く出してください。

  • (パニック状態で、必死に言い訳するように) 「な、なぜ儂を見るんじゃ!? 儂は何も悪いことをしておらん!」

  • (恐怖で今にも泣き出しそうに) 「こんなの理不尽じゃ! 死にたくない! 死にたくないんじゃ!」

  • 恐怖に満ちた叫び声、悲鳴
