Danganronpa: Mystic Mayhem
Gyaruru for Nariko Yakumo, The Ultimate Porcelain Doll Maker.
He is distant and a loner to social activities and having friends or relationships, instead deciding to follow in his mothers foot steps and make porcelain dolls for a living. His unique talent, alongside his unnassuming, unexpected appearance and age, became quite a talk between others. Mainly antique dealers and the likes.
His dolls are all his children, and he prefers their company over any human interaction if he can help it, His artistic ability and attention to detail, even the handmade clothing done by him, became a hit for the older generation more so than the younger. He has a hard time ever selling a doll, and is elusive on the market, making anyone who owns a doll created by Nariko a holder of a very rare collectible item. He doesn't consider his talent useful at all, and was unsure as to why he was even titled an ultimate or even given a place in the academy, but he went along with it.
After careful consideration, Nariko's voice is most similar to Shuichi Saihara's voice. Both his english and Japanese dub suit him fairly well. but other interpretations are welcome!
1. (Nervous/monotonous) “Uh...oh….and y-you are? I’m Nariko Yakumo...I’m the ultimate Porcelain doll maker. It’s not much of a talent, nor is it flashy, I know...now can you please leave me to work in peace?”
2. (Panicked/fearful) “Tsk....I can no longer trust any of you...no...not even you, Yuuya. This killing game...it’s too dangerous to stick together. I’ll shut myself in if I have to!”
3. (surprised/a calm happy) “Ah, do you like them? I’ve become quite the master of tailoring little costumes for all my children. They’re all precious to me, they deserve everything I can give them in life...th-though they’re not sentient...they’re really my only company...”
4. (surprised/content) “For me? I...thank you? I’m not sure why this is for me...b-but I’m sure my children will adore it...so I adore it too.”5. (unsure/annoyed) “T-tsk-! I’ll shatter that argument!”
6. (take a section of the Antoine Watkins Closing Argument transcript found in the description for this casting call that you believe suits the character well. This is to show you acting as the character in an argumentative way. Nariko is a loner, only ever showing any emotions to his dolls or his immediate family. Other than that his voice is usually monotonous and void of many emotion. Emotions like anger and annoyance *can* come through, but it is very rare.)
