Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V Fandub: Reiji Akaba
natepeach for Sora Shiunin
Character Description: Sora is kid, who was top of his class and became an elite soldier for Academia. He is confident in his skills but hates it when there isn’t a challenge. In order to blend in with the Standard Dimension, Sora looked up to Yuya (at first glance) and self-proclaimed himself as his disciple. Sora is looking for a good challenge to entertain himself, but after taking a look at the LDS Trio, he decides to let Gongenzaka take his place, watching the matches for himself, simultaneously displaying his cocky attitude and his analytical/soldier-like nature.
Voice Description: Sora is relatively young and around the growing age. His voice will definitely be amongst the higher pitch, so a girl will most likely have to voice him. There are fandubs planned for his character in the future, some of the ones we really want to dub over are scenes involving his personality becoming a bit warped and crazy. So the voice actor must be able to portray this appearance and switch between this and his cutesy/normal persona as well.
Sora is in middle of his fight with Shun, attempting to keep up his happy, innocent facade.
"Why are you all angsty, mister? You need to relax and have fun with this duel! After all, it's all about making the people smile and showing them a great performance! So come on! Play along!"
After a few turns jabbing at one another, Sora reveals his true colors to Shun. His persona of being this sweet kid fades away and his nature as a sadistic soldier of Academia is brought to light.
"Ha! Aren't you getting a bit carried away there? Me being hunted? Don't make me laugh! I can win a duel like this with no problem at all! *Starts slipping into his warped mindset.* This is just child's play! That's all this is to me, a game! The same goes for my comrades at Academia! We hunted your people down for fun! You all were just easy prey for our hunting game!"
To make his play against his opponent, Sora typically uses Polymerization to fuse two monsters to bring out a better monster.
"It's time we brought something a little more dangerous to this duel, don't you think? I use the Spell Card, Polymerization to fuse together my Edge Imp Saw and Fluffal Leo! Blades possessed by demons, become one with the King of the Jungle and show to us your new form! I Fusion Summon! Behold! The Beast King that rips everything to shreds! Level Seven! Frightfur Leo!"
Holy crud, this was excellent! The voice, the line deliveries, the tonal shifts, everything! Fantastic Job!
Thank you so much!! He was one of my favorite Arc-V characters so it was super fun to record ^^
Congratulations !! ^^
