Yokai Dango -fighting RPG / LGBT+ dating sim-
Pillaric for Akihiko / Nakahara Akihiko
He/Him - 5’2” / 158cm
A kitsune/fox (http://yokai.com/kitsune/) yokai. Falls under the ranger fighting class. Tends to fall under the "Sensei/Ossan" archetype, especially since he is the MC's biological father (HE IS NOT DATABLE).
Akihiko had an arrange marriage to Miku and was intended to inherit her throne alongside her. She ended up running from their relationship and kingdom, leaving him to deal with the shame and consequences of her actions, leading to his eventual exile. He wandered the woods, stripped of his honor and eating random humans that ran into him. Upon feeling Miku's magical presence, he seeks her out to get his revenge but instead runs into Yasu, unaware that they are his child at first, he tries to eat them. Upon finding out who Yasu really is, he decides to travel with them to escort them to the kingdom to inherit their throne, though his motives are questionable and his temper sometimes unstable.
I can definitely imagine a more calm and serious tone to his voice, maybe even softly spoken, occasionally able to channel a more malicious, almost sadistic sound, especially when angry. He's a fox, so like a growl when upset. Probably a more low to mid range.
(calmly with a growl) "I'm going to eat you."
(almost agitated/suspicious at first and the progressively confused) "You smell like Miku...why? No, not just her...you smell like...me?"
"I'm your father, it's what I'm supposed to do: take care of my child."
(almost scolding) "You have a lot to learn before we get back to the castle. You can hardly call yourself a basic yokai, let alone a kitsune of royal blood."
(malicious) "You little fool. Did you really think this was about you? That I cared at all?"
(battle cry - calm) "You can die now."
You have a nice voice, but it almost sounded a little too forced here and there for Akihiko (especially in the beginning). I did take a look at some of the other auditions you've done, and I do think you have potential, whether it be for Akihiko but more toned down, or even Ryohei (based off your "I met you at truth or dare 2 / Lucas" audition) or someone else. I do like what you have, so if you want to check out anyone else or my other projects, I'd love to hear more from you! Thank you for your audition, by the way!
Thanks, I appreciated it. I'm only 16 and I only started doing VO/VA almost 2 years ago. I've been "self-taught" if you will. Not to say I won't find a class or coach to get some actual training in the future. I definitely will. It's just I don't have the resources to do that yet. It's been a lot of trial and error for me. But, thanks again.
Well, like I said, it was good, but it just might need a bit more refining and/or direction.
