P4GR: Central Cast
Austin for Ryotaro Dojima
Having lost his wife years prior to the events of Persona 4 thanks to a hit and run, Ryotaro Dojima is a distraught man who tries his best to support his daughter despite the ill schedule to be with her. He begins as a man who struggles to conversate with others but ends as a better man because of the support he allowed his family to give him.
Here is a reference to the original voice actor's performance, original takes are always welcome.

"'When is always', huh...?"
"Ah- Well. Nanako isn't afraid of me. She's just like her mother."
"This town is my town. It's the place where you and Nanako live. That's why I'm gonna live on, protecting this place. As a detective... As a father."
Hey there!
I'm glad you chose to take part in my project! I'm liking the potential this particular take gives, but there IS room for more. Your voice gives him a sort of Superman vibe when I'd look a bit more toward a Hal Jordan Green Lantern if you will.
The first line is Dojima licking his emotional wounds after having been chewed out by Nanako about having spent such little time at home with her, and he's actively struggling to answer that question. I want to hear that emotion invoked.
The second line can be just a bit more frantic. Think he's at a social gathering and is coming up with a defense for someone saying he's scary.
And for the third, I think it would come off good if you sounded noticeably at peace. I'm sure you're aware of Dojima's story. This is the moment he finally feels he has some closure to all of his trauma.
Other than that, I would say take a quick look at AJ's take on Yu Narukami, and try to keep his voice in mind. Definitely use him as a frame of reference for the realm of relatability. You ARE his uncle.
