**Azusa's route contains violence, manipulation, & abuse. Please do not audition if you are uncomfortable with these topics. 

*Before auditioning for this character, please know that you will be required to do two voices for him.

Azusa is introduced as a foreign exchange student from Hinomoto, which was inspired from Japan and its culture. Since Hinomoto is set in the asian continent, we would like for Azusa to have a Japanese accent if possible. However, we are open to other types of accents!(Preferably Asian accents such as Japanese, Korean, etc)  We just would like for him to have some type of accent as he is a foreign exchange student. 

Background:

Azusa lost his parents at a very early age, leaving him alone to take care of his younger brother, Tsukasa. Azusa found work as an onmyoji, or court wizard, to a noble family, raising Tsukasa simultaneously. Sadly, Tsukasa contracted a deadly disease and later died, leaving Azusa devastated and alone.

At some point after Tsukasa's death, Azusa was approached by a Nue: a magical creature of darkness. The Nue convinced Azusa that it could return Tsukasa back to life. Azusa later met Randy March, who had travelled to Hinomoto and was staying with the same noble family. Randy attempted to befriend Azusa, but it wasn't until Randy told Azusa about unicorns in Gedonelune that Azusa showed any interest. Later, Azusa travelled to Gedonelune with Randy and enrolled at the Academy as an exchange student.

Personality: 

When initially introduced, Azusa appears to be quite kind and polite, offering the protagonist candy and sharing facts about Hinomoto. Everyone seems to like him, especially the girls of the academy, who are head over heels for him. Azusa's real personality is quite blunt and rude. Azusa is very manipulative, often threatening the protagonist to stay by his side and forcing her to help him. At certain points of his route, if the player chooses the wrong option, Azusa will kill the protagonist. 

"Sweet Persona" Voice: Charming, respectful and soft, possibly quiet and gentle, mid-high/mid-deep/deep pitched

True Voice: Harsh, cold, and power-hungry, deep pitched

Accent: A Japanese accent is most preferred as his place of birth was inspired and based off of Japan. However, the team and I are open to other types of accents as well. Japanese, or any asian accents (such as korean) are just most preferred. An accent is NOT required to audition for this character.
