Project X Zone 2 FANDUB: Prologue 3 - "Dancers in Shadow"
NeonVeal for Natsu (Soulcalibur V)
A female ninja hailing from the distant past (circa 1600s).
Natsu is a part of the Fu-Ma Clan, a village of demon fighters. Despite this, she ironically also has the demon 'Arahabaki' sealed inside her body by her master, Taki. Though she was ostracised, Taki remained supportive and kind to Natsu, teaching her the art of Musoh-Battoh-Ryu, and allowing Natsu to grow into cheerful (albeit rambunctious) girl she is now. However, Taki disappeared one day, and feeling indebted, Natsu decided set out to search for her.
Natsu is the last ninja to be pulled through the time portal and meet Hotsuma and the others. She has a hard time understanding her situation due to the other ninjas' refusal to explain the concept of time travel, though her bratty personality complicates matters as well. Overall, Natsu feels disconnected from the events transpiring...until she learns that Hiryu somehow has met Taki before.
Voice Tips: Remove any preconceptions as to how you think ninja act, because Natsu is the complete opposite. Loud and expressive, Natsu instead comes off as a bratty, self-absorbed teenager with a tendency to 'motor-mouth' through her sentences, not helped by the fact that she (somehow) speaks in modern slang despite hailing from the Edo period. Draw upon your inner valley girl; Natsu should be voiced similar to how those "queen bee" girls in high school-based movies are.

[Context: you were just blinded by a flash of light and were thrown through a giant hole in the wall to an unfamiliar place](shocked, flustered) Eyaahh! What the heck?! This is messed up! *groan* Well, THAT was wiggy. What on earth is that hole? Ground and walls here made of stone... Where am I? And who are you?
[Context: Hibana has just insulted you, saying you don't look like a ninja] (catty, snapping) Hey, who asked you, sister?! Like you guys are any ones to talk! Wait, are you all supposed to be ninja? What are you doing here? Who do you serve? (annoyed, bratty) ...Holy rice-cakes, why do ninja always gotta be such a drag?! Not that Master was any different, really. Ugh! I'm Natsu of the Fu-Ma clan, trained in Musoh-Battoh-Ryu (Moo-soh Bah-toh Reeyoo) fighting style! Happy now?!
(realising just a second too late) Oh, crap, that's right! I was gonna talk to Hiryu about something! I need to ask more about that shinobi from Fu-Ma Village he said he met. Right! I'm outta here too. See ya! (Calling out) Hiryu! Wait for me!
