While currently doing the manga dub for My Hero Vigilantes, a viewer commented and recommended that I dub this series after the first season of the anime ended, I watched it, read a lil ahead of the manga as I'm still reading along and here we are.
Summary: Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead follows Akira Tendo as he aims to achieve a bucket list of things he wishes to do before he becomes a zombie as he was previously subjected to give his entire life and time to a company for 3 years. With his newfound freedom, he meets other survivors consisting of Kencho, his friend from college, Shizuka, a knowledgeable survivor, and Beatrix, a German samurai infatuated with the Japanese culture. Together they travel throughout Japan to find a cure to the disease that caused the pandemic & do things that they normally wouldn't be able to.
I'm looking for good recording quality, convincing performances and commitment when needed, all voice actors will have multiple opportunities to expand their vocal range and experiment new vocal tones. I'm not looking for voice accuracy because it takes the fun out of voice acting to me as it limits opportunities for application and potential growth.
WHEN IT COMES TO VOICE REFERENCES FOR SHIZUKA, KENCHO & BEATRIX, YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO REFERENCE TO ANIME FOR IDEAS AND DIRECTION. I DO NOT EXPECT IDENTICAL VOICES, JUST YOUR OWN TAKES AND CAPABILITIES.
I did also discover an error in a line for Saionji and I do apologize for that😅🙏🏾
Shizuka is a pragmatic, resourceful, reserved, logical, aloof and blunt young woman who is a fast adaptable thinker and she is knowledgeable in various types of science. (LOTS OF RUN-ON SENTENCES) She is also argumentative and good with analyzing risks where she is used to not like working in groups until she met Akira. While yes she is aloof, she is easy to blush at complements from Akira.
{Informative} A.I is a field that will revolutionize the future. This hotel is just the beginning of that future.
(Akira Compliments Her){Annoyed but Flustered} Y-you sure took your time! What's the point in saying that now?!
{Sympathetic} Well, if you're only other choice is a life without your loved ones in a world full of zombies, then as data those two can be together forever on the same server.
Kencho is a lively and energetic young man who is good at communicating and making conversations with others. He helps Akira follow his bucket list through the pandemic as he follows his dream of being a comedian alongside him, Shizuka & Beatrix. He also possess the confidence of a womanizer as he has been seen having sexual intercourse with multiple women.
(Akira convinces the group to run the Spartathlon) {Hysterically Concerned} Wha- SERIOUSLY!! YOU'RE JOKING RIGHT?!?
{Relieved} A Love Hotel!! A Real Life Working Love Hotel!
(Beatrix asks about the love hotel) {Seductive} Well Bea, how about we get a room together and I can show you.
**DEFINITELY LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WITH A GERMAN ACCENT**
Highly Recommended but Not Required so do not feel discouraged if you can't perform it
Beatrix is a sweet, outgoing, free-spirited and kindhearted young woman who becomes enthusiastic when any topic about "Japan" is being discussed, usually explaining in detail the cultural aspects and/or traditions of the country. Beatrix is a weapons expert who has been able to use a katana, naginata, bow and arrows/crossbows, etc. in rapid succession to quickly defeat zombies and without showing signs of fatigue.
{Questioning a hotel in the middle of a Zombie Pandemic} Vhy Do Only Zey Haff Electricity? (Why Do Only They Have Electricity?)
{Completely Enamored with the Gourmet Food} Ze Flavor Iz So Good I Don't want To Stop Chewing (The Flavor Is So Good I Don't Want To Stop Chewing)
(Captured for an Experiment) {Panicking} I CANNOT SEEM TO MOVE
She has a kind and friendly personality shown in various flashbacks. During her final moments after being infected as her lover attempted to save her she begged him not to revive her at the cost of someone else's indicating she doesn't wanna be revived if another life is taken.
{Optimistic} As A.I researchers, it's important that we think about what A.I Should & Shouldn't be, so that we humans can continue to remain human.
{Weakly} That's... enough. You have to stop this Doctor Edogawa (Ed-Doe-Gow-Wa)
{Weakly} We only get one shot at life, and that's the line A.I shouldn't cross.
He's looked at as a mad scientist. He was kind and friendly person who dreamed of making ultimate A.I Android. However after his lover Rui Saionji got infected and forced him to upload her mind to Hotel A.I server to save her mind, he became insane and obsessed with bringing her back.
{Insane} The time has come to conduct my final experiment. Yes! Yes!
{Insane} I'm going to surgically implant nanomachines in your brains to reroute your neural pathways. Your bodies will remain unchanged, but your brains will become hers.
{Emotional} Pygmalion fell in love with Galatea, A statue he'd craved. Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, granted his wish and brought Galatea to life. You WILL live again, I swear it!
