Hanyuu (Higurashi) vs Nyu/Lucy (Elfen Lied) - Rap Battle
Shelley Hunter 💜 for Lucy / Nyu (Elfen Lied)
Nyu is a ditzy girl with no memory of who she is, and primarily can only say "Nyu!" (Of course, she will be speaking more than just that in the battle.)
Her voice is extremely childlike and high pitched, expressively she is also like a child.
Lucy is a girl of the diclonious species, who is quite jaded from her emotional torment from being who she is.
Her voice is the exact opposite of Nyu's, as it is brooding, dark, moody and deep. She has the voice of an older woman as Lucy, Her voice is not completely emotionless all the time, as her voice, especially during fights, can be quite aggressive.
Excerpts from the project's audio demo:

A cover (can be just a single section) of a (preferably rap) song that demonstrates an ability to:
- Be able to be on-beat
- Follow lyric flow
- Be able to rap in double time / fast rap (important)
- Be able to do multiple run-on lines/couplets/bars in a single take (optional)
- Have good mic quality (i know this isn't an ability but still)
- Express two different voices, the cutesy childish voice of Nyu and the emotionally jaded, resentful and angry Lucy both well.
AMAZING. I adore the delivery and emotion in this -especially the emotion for your Lucy -and the flow is absolutely on point as well; I cannot give much criticism for this at all. Do you mind if I could get you to further try out small sections for Nyu and Lucy from the actual project just to see how it would sound?
Phew, I'm glad I did it justice! Of course. Feel free to message me and I can look into it in the week. :)
Oh my god! This is amazing! Great work :-)
Hi there, i’ve listened to your demo and some of your work, including your take on Lucy from Elfin Lied, and thought you were amazing! I was wondering if you’d be interested in auditioning for my fan dub of the visual novel Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. I think you’d be a great fit for some of the characters, like Takano, Rina, Satoko, and several others. Feel free to let me know if you’re interested, the link to the project is below :) https://www.castingcall.club/projects/higurashi-when-they-cry-english-dub
