One Week Friends: Episode 1 Fandub (2M/4F) [CAST LIST IS OUT]
kainico for Kaori Fujimiya
Age: 14 – 17
Voice Type: Kind Mid – High toned voice. Very average teenage female voice, that is not to high pitched or overly squeaky. Try a more normal voice. I realize the Japanese voice for Kaori sounds pretty stereotypical in the higher pitched and squeakier stereotype, but I'm looking for something a bit less high pitched. If you've ever seen the english dubs of Naruto or Sword Art Online, think of the voices of Sakura or Asuna (I'm trying to pick popular animes as an example of the voice I mean).
Japanese Voice Sample: [SAMPLE]
She is very sweet, but can wear a cold and cynical poker face on occasion.
Line 0 Context: Hase has just sat down beside Kaori, who was by herself, and has tried to start a conversation. But as Kaori listens, she only becomes more sad and hurt because she knows if she makes friends with him, she will forget him when the week ends. She tries to explain without giving away too much.
Line 1 Context: Kaori is feeling convicted after ignoring Hase’s kind gestures, so she stops him in the hall and attempts to thank him for trying. She is very awkward and has long pauses in her speech. You can tell she is conflicted about what she wants to say. At the end of the line: feeling even worse she runs off as she says goodbye.
Line 2 Context: Kaori is finally having a good time (only because she is forgetting about her memory problem, ironically) and pulls out a flier for a dessert shop. She happily says her line with a closed-mouth giggle/laugh at the end. This is one of the few times you will hear so happy in the episode.
(Please read line contect in description!): "Hase I- … I can’t… I can’t make any friends."
(Almost as if you are about to cry at the very end): “Um, Hase? (pause) *Stressful Sigh* (Pause) Thanks a lot… for your help. (Pause) B- Bye!”
(Very Happily): "It won’t fill an empty stomach, but… there’s a new crepe place at the station down the street! Hm-hmm!" (<--That’s a closed-mouth laugh by the way :D)
