Your Lie In April: An Animecore Fan Redub
Project Overview
WHAT IS THIS?
This is going to be a fanmade redub of the anime series, Your Lie In April. And when we say redub, we mean it will be almost a word-for-word re-recording of the official dub scripts. The only times we will deviate is when a line feels off or unnatural or just overall in need of a rewrite.
For those of you unfamiliar with the premise: The story follows a young pianist named Kо̄sei Arima, who loses the ability to perform the piano after his mother's death, and his experiences after he meets violinist Kaori Miyazono.
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Please make sure your microphone is capable of recording your voice without picking up overwhelming background noises or excessive peaking/clipping.
2. You must have a Discord account, as the project will be going into production over there.
3. Your voice files must be sent in a .wav format, though if it ends up too big, .mp3 files will do as an alternative.
4. You need to have a very clear idea of both the series and the character you're auditioning for, especially their dub voice.
5. Open Ethnicity, POC actors are heavily encouraged to audition.
6. Remember to have fun!
Thank you all so much for reading and I can't wait to hear all your auditions!

Kōsei is a former child prodigy in playing piano, dubbed the "Human Metronome" for his mechanical accuracy, a product of his mother Saki's strict method of teaching. When Saki dies, Kōsei becomes unable to hear the sound of his piano playing and he gives up on it. Two years later, he takes up the piano again after Kaori Miyazono persuades him to become her accompanist. Influenced by her emotional and unrestrained playing style, Kōsei falls in love with her.

Saki is Kōsei's mother who was once a former pianist herself. While she was still alive, she demanded that Kōsei practice the score to absolute perfection, and often beat him up severely for making mistakes or if he didn't perform well during his concerts: her teaching methods escalated to the point where she wouldn't allow her son to play with his friends. Saki did not at first plan to make her son a pianist but after she became aware of his talent and discovered she had a terminal illness, she decided to give Kōsei a strict foundation in piano playing so he could make a living after she died.
