Natsume meets an old friend with an interesting proposition. There are sparkles to be had.

Notes
After... a good half of a year, this baby is finally finished! 8D I'm pretty excited about this one-- it's one of my favorite scenes from the new season. This is actually a joint project with Sayaka and me-- she did the SFX and we decided on the cast together. This is why the SFX is all so nice and pretty now. XDDD

Oh, and we have an OP singer. Is that ridiculously awesome or what. <8DDD (the thread for the actual song is here. Check it out. >D)

But anyways. 8D

OH. I remember you doing a clip like this, mong. You forced me to voice some fiancee that went "omg. Fireflies = prettttttttttyyyyyy. *_____*" Yep, exact wording.

This turned out great even though I've never seen this show. I loved Rashinban's voice for the cat and Y.Chang did an excellent job singing and acting. Mochan was the perfect mother...? Who's this Rubedo guy? I thought he died off a while back. XD

Fangirl squeals = best part<3 I like the sparkles.

A really good clip overall, all the voices matched quite well so it was definately an enjoyable watch ^^

Hopefully you guys do a few more.

I've been waiting to hear Y. Chang's yaoi-induced song for some time. They turned out great, as did this dub for the most part. Some thing's I'd ike to point out on the mixing, though:

Don't be afraid to bump up the volume on the sfx. Especially ambience. Ambience should be as loud as the vocals are to give the scene a sort of realistic feel to it. With that being said, the sfx were a bit too quiet, but you did a god job with mixing in the footsteps. Most people don't know how to mix those in well, so it's alays nice to see people who can.

I don't know much about this anime, but I thought the voices suited everyone's character. There were some obvious mic quality differences, but it wasn't too distracting.

Great job, mong!

WOW, I love it!! Y.chang your voice is so amazing XD TOTALLY downloading! SQUEEE

[Hokage Titan]

This was awesome, Yaoi suggestive aren't my normal anime tastes, but this was really well done from the mixing to the voices to Y.Chang's singing. I can't really critique something like this cause their is nothing I had trouble with.

[Y. Chang]

yaoi suggestive

*facepalms*

Sapphire's trollin; despite the humor in this particular scene, this series has nothing to do with yaoi. Watch this show now, it's so friggin' good!

Recording for this was a lot of fun. Performance-wise, I really liked what everyone gave, though as a diction nazi I personally would have appreciated more precise enunciation from Natori. As far as the mixing goes, I thought it was quite well done; aside from echoing Sapphire's advice about ambiance and increasing sfx volume, I'd say it doesn't hurt to throw in some compression and EQ with the vocals to even out the mic qualities and boost the volume without distorting the sound too much (I noticed that a couple of the yelling lines especially could have used this).

Yay Natsume! Do moar! :3

Ah, damn first time I've fallen for a troll's trick in ages XD I would enjoy seeing more here.

[Mochan]

That was cute! I don't know much about the anime, but everything seemed to fit and the voice overs fit quite well. It was well done! =)

Thanks for letting me be apart of this. ^^

[mongtsatsa]

Thanks for the feedback, guys! I really appreciate it~ 8D

LoH: lol, those fangirl screams were fun. <3 The sparkles are totally fabulous, are they not? XD

hyperknees: asdkjf I got hyperkneed and survived? 8DDDD (I kid, I kid. XD) I'm really glad you enjoyed it! As for more clips....

Sapphire: Thank you so much for the critique! 8D Mixing has never been my strongest suit, so I'll be working on those levels on the next clip. 8D Ychang's song is so totally yaoi-induced

Subaru-camui: hurr hurr, that was my initial reaction when I got Y Chang's lines too. XD

Hokage: lol, I'm glad you liked this. XDDD And lol, I can see how the humor in this clip would lead one to think about yaoi-suggestive themes, but it's actually quite different. 8'D

Y Chang: Aaaah, compressor. XD Thanks for the feedback~ 8'D I shall work away at my mixing skills and arise as a ninja! >D we'll do moar. ttly.

Mochan: Hurr hurr, I'm glad you were on board for this project! 8DDD I'm glad this turned out well. :3
