JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable (EP 1 TSC English Fandub)
karellia for Tomoko Higashikata
Pronounced " Toh-moh-koh Hee-Gahsh-Kuh-Tuh"
Be quick about pronouncing that last name. Let it roll off the tongue.
A fairly mid-range, mature sounding voice. Being able to shift from huge aggression and having a tough sound to being cool calm and collected is a must. Think of Jamie Marchi or Michelle Ruff as a comparison.
**Spoiler warning**

A single mother and teacher, Tomoko is known to show a strong temperament, disliking it when guys try to hit on her (as she still loves Joseph) and being annoyed easily. She also seems to be mildly perceptive, noticing that the seal on her milk that Angelo had given her was broken. Despite her sharp temperament, she is actually a kind person particularly to her family and friends.
When Jotaro visits looking for Josuke, she breaks into tears and hugs him, confusing him for Joseph; with whom she appears to remain in love. It is not known whether she knew he was married during their romance. She loves her family dearly, as evidenced by the close relationship she has with her son and had with her late father. She can also be strict with Josuke, as she froze his account when she found out he earned 1.33 million from a shared 5 million with Okuyasu and Shigeki, understanding that Josuke would spend it all if she didn't and saving it for his college funds.
She is fond of a particular sponge cake from Kamakura.
When afraid, Tomoko tends to swallow her own saliva.
(Aggressive) Go to hell, loser!
That idiot can seem calm, but then get pissed out of nowhere. I wonder who he took after...
(Sincere) Deep down in the bottom of his heart, he's kind. So there's no need to worry about him.
Things I like: I think your voice is pretty good for the character. For the most part. Nice tone and sound about you. Things I didn't like: I'm not getting that "motherly" vibe from you. Your voice has a very young adult sound about it. It would work well for a character in later episodes. And a little more energy would've made it much better. I think you did pretty good. Can use a little more umph. And you can totally be an additional voice! Hopefully we can make you our Yukako. Only time will tell. Unfortunately, Tomoko has been cast to someone else. You can find her audition in the link below. Thanks for your time! http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/members/The-Space-Crab/casting-call/JoJos-Bizarre-Adventure-Diamond-is-Unbreakable-TSC-English-/
Thank you very much for your feedback, I appreciate it! Good luck on the project, and I'll keep an eye out for any of your future casting calls!
