Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V Fandub: Pendulum Summoning is Born!
artdart for Yuzu Hiragi
Character Description: A young girl, who also strives to do her best to achieve her goal of becoming a professional Entertainment Duelist. She is Yuya’s best friend and has stuck by his side through thick and thin, even when all the kids at school were bullying him, because of his dad’s disappearance, she defended him and helped him through his rough childhood. Her character is kind, caring, determined, and tough, when it comes down to it. While she appears annoyed at Yuya’s antics, she really cares for him deep down and sees him as an inspiration/rival to get better at dueling.
Voice Description: Yuzu is a fourteen-year-old girl, who has a normalish/highish pitch to her voice. This voice will show that she’s still innocent, but also a person that shouldn’t be messed with.
After Yuya messes around during the dueling session, Yuzu gets upset at his antics.
"Come on, Yuya! Take this seriously! You're not going to make it out there with the professionals, if you keep this act up! What would your dad say?!
During her duel in the Synchro Dimension, Yuzu talks about her reasoning to Chojiro for dueling the way she did. Despite the current situation with the Dimensional War, she duels in the same way Yuya would, which revolves around entertaining the crowd.
"There's something I want to tell someone... My feelings... That person is probably depressed and blaming themselves right now. By doing my best, I can remind them that they're not alone. *Changes her tone to energetic and addresses the audience.* We're just getting started! The fun has just begun, everyone!"
After Yuya goes berserk, Yuzu attempts to calm him down and bring him back to his senses.
"You’ve left your home to save me! No matter how many times we got separated from each other, you kept chasing after me! Because of that, I was able to smile! Please respond to them, Yuya! Respond to your friends’ feelings! And then, we’ll go back home together!
Not bad for your first time! Your environment sounds like it doesn't have much background noise or acoustic, which is great! On your lines though, they sound a bit choppy. Did you perhaps close the gap between each line, to avoid that dead space? I understand your reasoning for that, if you did, but some lines do need that sort of pause to add to the scene. Something I think you should invest in is a pop filter. I definitely could hear all the pops and splatters of your "S's" and "P's". A pop filter helps nullify that type of noise, to make it sound a bit more pleasing to the audience. I think you have a passion for voice acting though. If you just keep at it, take in criticism and improve yourself, I think you'll go far!
Thank you so much for the feedback! I agree with you that a pop filter is definitely needed,I'll probably be trying to get my hands on one soon. As for the dead space, yeah I did end up editing them out because for some lines you could hear me breathing, but I'm pretty sure there's a feature on audacity that allows you too add a pause between voice clips so I'll have to look into that! Again, thank you so much for listening and critiquing my audition!
You're welcome! Break lots of legs on your auditions in the future! I think Audacity does have a feature like that too!
