Custom Bleach Anime/Manga Dub: Arrancar Civil War arc: All Active Roles
Ashromer for Akane Mizuki/Kenpachi Mizuki, Captain of squad 11
Akane Mizuki is the sadistic, battle-hungry captain of squad 11, whose's appearance is kept in secret and is unknown to most people in soul society, even her own squad don't know what she really looks like. Only a few know her true appearance as a female lynx from the beast realm. She can be a bit of a smart ass, cruel, blood hungry and very sensitive about any attempts to find out her true appearance. She takes on a more major role in the next arc of the War of the Beast Realm arc
(Tone:Eager, Sadistic)
"if it was me, I'd found who did it and carved their face up till it looked like sushi!"
(Tone: Mocking, Sarcastic)
"Sure you were"
(Tone: Eager, battle-hungry)
"the rest of us can make a...distraction of sorts"
this is kinda complicated to talk about, but here goes: I like the tone of the first line, however, I think just in this particular instance, that the laugh is unnessarily and slightly out of character for her to do as this is a arguement, plus Mizuki isn't really prone to manic laughter like that, if she was, I would of noted it in the test lines. You definitely have the sadistic part down, no doubt about it, but it sounds more like crazy sadistic instead of a more calculater sadistic. I don't mean like flipping the script at all, but I feel for the tone, I think it should be calmer with a sadistic undertone, especially in regards to the third line where I think there are too many spaces between lines, not including the part where there is meant to be a pause for dramatic effect as it should come across more like "We'll cause a distraction...of sorts" with this sinister/sadistic undertone, but as one co-hesisive line instead of what sounds like garbled insanity. Since something you need to understand about this character is there is a difference between battle hungry/sadistic and insane and no where do I mention she's insane, more quirky. Plus again, your second and third line audio is quiet so I think for your lines, they should sound more like normal speaking level instead of whispers like it sounds like in the recording. I hope this is constructive for you and that this can help going forward
This is some really great feedback, thank you so much for taking the time to give it. Would you like me to redo the audition? I can take it again with the direction if you want. Yeah, in terms of the mic being quiet, I just go this new XLR mic setup, and I'm still figuring out the audio interface and all that stuff. To me, it sounds SOOO loud when I record it in Audacity... but I guess it's still recording really quietly. Thanks again!
no problem and sure, your more then welcome to redo the audition if you wish, hell, I wouldn't mind personally doing live recording over discord with you if you would like more direct, well, direction XD if your interested, I can provide my discord name over a PM and we can arrange for a live recording if you wish
Sure, that sounds like fun! Shoot me your Discord and I'll add and message you there.
