Ohohoho! You caught it before I was going to post about it !
In the middle of watching it now! Will post with thoughts in a moment!

EDIT:
FINISHED!
Besides that one things you caught, the mixing was flawless and awesome. The voices fit really, really well. It was such a fun clip to watch *A*!

[Glastonberry]

When the update is up revolving my missing line, I will most definitely make a more in-depth critique, because I feel like I may say the same thing everyone else will say about that problem.

I'm still watching it, so I will update when I am done ~ So far, so good!

EDIT:

(It's critique time!)

InstraClassic 'Keima Katsuragi': I must say, this is by far the most fun I've had recording for a character. Especially when it came to yelling, as I've rarely done any of that in the fandubs I previously voiced in. Not to sound egotistic, but I must say I liked hearing myself in this and I believe my performance actually wasn't that bad. I would say this is a massive improvement over the dubs I've voiced in ever since I began. Granted, Keima was a bit of a difficult character to keep consistent with, but I think it turned out great in the end.

Haushinka 'Elsea de luta Ima': Hey, look at that! The first fandub I've been in with you! I must say, I was definitely pleased with your execution in Elsea's character. You carried around that elegant, lovely personality with seemingly no problem. Excellent consistency as well on terms of the character's tone. Not to mention, I loved your delivery when it came to Elsea's introduction lines. You sounded oh so gentle when the times were intense, and that really brought in the comedy!

Can't say much about the extras, but in their own essence, I shall say they added a definite flare to the comedy, especially Seymour and Sukisho. And Chinomi, I didn't know your voice could go that high for the Skull. Color me surprised!

In terms of mixing, I'd say the mixing is especially well done. Everything flowed nicely. Granted, the quality in some SFX sounded compressed, but I guess that can't be helped. Might I say that the sound quality is fucking amazing? You can hear everything loud and clear and it really adds to the chemistry within the scene. Altogether, fantastic job on the clip! That goes for all of you ~ I can't wait for more!

Okay, error finally taken care of! Enjoy the way it was MEANT to be

[Seymour]

I really liked this clip, and it certainly set up the premise of the show
As for the cast, I got no real complaints, it was wonderous all around, from the extras to the mains.

although I will admit, when I heard capturer, I thought of this, and this

[ShiroKaisen]

I liked this clip a lot. Haushinka captured Elsee's cuteness to a T, and InstraClassic did a great job as Keima and I'd be really up for hearing more.

Mixing was great, music replacements felt natural, and the scripting was well done...except for one thing: "Capturer" would be a great nickname replacement if the entire series down to its name weren't based on the fact that his nickname has "God" in it. He kinda has to be called the "Capturing/Capture God" or Elsee's nickname, the religious images, the title...don't make sense. It's good in this clip and feels more natural, but it's one of those times you can't really change something for that purpose. That aside, liked the script a lot.

[Sukisho]

Yeah I know... it was hard to make that fit and still follow the title (but he still said he was a "god of the gaming world" XD), but I'll play around some more with the future clips I have planned.

Glad everyone has enjoyed it though

[Erinokoe]

I absolutely love Elsie's voice in this! It's PERPERPERPERFECT! She sounds just like the japanese voice actor.
Haushinka, I love your voice! You're great!

[Hnilmik]

I posted this on FB, buuuuutttt I feel I can post this here too.

I like the sound. SFX didn't sound out of place and the music... Did I hear Zelda, or am I going crazy?

Not quite a huge fan of acting itself though... For the most part, kinda one note.

For instance, for Instraclassic's character, there could've been more shock and WTF at the sudden craziness going on, like the screaming (which didn't sound "motivated"; screaming in a vacuum, basically) and the rather placid reaction to the sudden-ring-around-your-neck-threatening-to-blow-up-your-head. Build up to the "emotional whiplash" instead of sticking to one level the whole time to emphasize his neutrality + push your limits more on the emotional extremes (don't hold back) are my overall critiques. There's the benefit of checking the visuals to get an idea of how far you need to go.

And may I suggest a bit more clarity in "capturer", namely the "ur", instead of "capterer", where the last two syllables mesh together. At one point, Haushinka demonstrates what I mean.

As for Haushinka's performance, I like that the perkiness works, though I feel there could be a bit more going on and playing with the "tune" than getting stuck in the same speech pattern. With the lack of shifting in emotional levels (we're talking about subtle changes, not ramps), it makes the character sound superficial. In example, she faces the threat of death too, but it's a worry, not a legitimate fear. Head. Go bye-bye. Sounds kinda scary to me--Decapitation or explosion? That's why. Wrapping your head around it more (no pun intended) probably would've internalized it a bit more.

Overall, not bad. Just those things got to me.
