P4GR: Central Cast
Meowstyx for Naoto Shirogane
The suave detective "prince". Established as the youngest working on the official case surrounding the murders in Inaba, she is first seen interviewing Kanji before his disappearance. Later on, when she begins to piece together more of the puzzle, she gets herself kidnapped as a way to find some more intel on the culprit. Despite this proving futile, she does join with the Investigation Team and works with them to not only stop the murders from progressing but also improving herself. Not only as a Detective, but also as a woman confident in her femininity.
Naoto actually has three voice actresses, so here's the references.

"R-Regardless. I have no doubt that the culprit will continue his attacks. We can only watch and wait for him to make his next move... But this is no longer a mere job, or someone else's affair. I want to know the truth of why we were targeted. Please allow me to join in your effort."
"This potential... Was still dormant within me... I wasn't considering the things I should have. The people who care about me, as well as my own self... The detective, the child, the woman... The 'me' who existed before them... I am... Simply myself. I'm glad to have met you..."
"People can't live alone. If you give in and sever your ties to human society, it will naturally become hard to live in it. Yet you refuse to face life and admit your fault, running from your own humanity like a coward. And though you claim to find life troublesome, you caused nothing but trouble for many others! Your twisted logic is that of an immature, egotistic brat!"
Your voice is VERY fitting for Naoto. It sounds comfortable in the lower ranges Naoto's portrayal goes to. Your first line perfectly displays what you can offer to your portrayal of the character, and I love it. This carries on throughout all of your other lines, but in the second it is most noticeable that you refrain from pouring an emotion into it. Think of it as the moment where Naoto can finally let out how she feels off her chest. You can really let loose. At your third, you are genuinely berating the person you're speaking to. Naoto is both disappointed and outraged at their actions. You don't need to increase your volume at all, it's perfect. But combining that with the emotion you can put in, I think it will be perfect.
Oh my gosh THANK YOU! It means more than you can ever know, truly. You're right honestly if I could I would probably redo that 2nd line as I know I could put more emotion into it as I've done with submissions before. but truly, the criticism and the compliments are highly appreciated.
Of course. Your audition was spectacular!
