[Fandub] [D2D] YuYu Hakusho - Scripts Sent, refer to blog now

Refi-chan · 01:59 PM

Life goes on, but it is not always “Happily ever after.” Following YYH series, this sequel series follows the lives of our heroes as adults! With the original script being complimented by Chris Sabat, Kyle Hebert, and other well known anime VAs (Yeah, I was so surprised when someone told me she printed up my scripts and shared them with the guys at FUNi o.o) and finding an artist, EKH from TheOtaku.com, I am now producing an Abridged version of my series to compile the plot and maybe go further than writing out my full-length scripts. EKH is drawing pictures to go along with these scripts so this will be like a storybook/semi-animated project.

I’ll be taking this one saga at a time with episodes being less than 10 min in length. Right now I have the script for Saga I done and casting for that. It consists of 4 episodes under 10 minutes each. I do hope to carry this on to sagas past what I’ve released in the full version, but that depends on if the cast will stick with me. As of now, it appears I’ll be doing the mixing, so I’m going to be a stickler about FOLLOWING RULES because in the past, I’ve encountered too many problems with doing things other ways (and to make the release quicker)!

Trailer

Even though this is abridged and loaded with comedic jokes, I do want the voices to be natural and well portrayed. Some of these characters will have this be the only opportunity for the fans to see and hear them so I want to leave a fitting perception. As such, those cast as new characters that have not been voiced before will have a pretty good chance of becoming that character’s “Official” voice! (True story, that’s what happened with Okiya!)

As this is an abridged series, one of the first things that get cut are the minor characters (wah-but those are my favorite—some characters who are in the series didn’t even make it into the Abridged vocally at all ToT) so other than Yusuke, Kurama, Hiei, and Kuwabara, the other characters have only a few lines at time. But everyone is pretty much reoccurring unless they die...well, even dying isn’t a guarantee to be gone XD If people are wanting and willing to expound on parts that this project misses (ie do their own production related to this series), they can feel free to contact me about their production ideas—I most likely will give permission.

CAST
Note:
* = Confirmed
+ = Lines completed (no additional recording)

Big thanks to Laserkid and Pokejedservo for sending me such a diverse amount of auds and being willing to do multiple characters. I tried to split the roles evenly by size and vocal variety and hope that it won't overwhelm either of you, since most the extra parts are small.

TO THE WHOLE CAST: Thank you for being a part of this. Please confirm if you haven't and I'll get scripts to the rest of you!
*Lines will be due Feb 27th, so that gives you a month*

Main Characters
(all Male, sorry girls ToT, see me about other ways you can participate though!)

Yusuke
Age: 21
Bio: Main character from the original series. Former spirit detective. At this point he knows of his demon heritage and is married to Kayko and they have a baby son
Voice Type: Justin Cook from the FUNi dub please (okay to sound older)
CAST TO: GytKaliba*

Kuwabara
Age: 21
Bio: Started out as the worst enemy-wannabe of the main character that turned into a best bud. He usually served as the comic relief. Even though he went to college in the field of science...he somehow turned out to be a fanfiction novelist here in the abridged series o.o
Voice Type: Chris Sabat’s gravely take please (okay to sound older)
CAST TO: Gonax123*

Kurama
Age: 22 (human-form)
Bio: Was a fox spirit to a demon and now a human. He’s really old and wise. Currently married to a relative of Genkai (VA relation...had to be done XD) and expecting a little one, but now his foxy family wants him to return to the Demon World...for good.
Voice Type: Lovely. I’m a stickler about this, John Burgmeier! Sorry girls, if you wanna voice Kurama, audition for one of his sisters! Or wait for Saga II as there is a character there that I specifically want to sound like Megumi Oogata...but if you wait, please let me know so in case things don’t seem to go over well and I fill discouraged to continue, I’ll know there are people wanting this to continue!
CAST TO: Laserkid*

Hiei
Age: Who knows?
Bio: The ‘anti-hero’ of the group. Fangirls know him as a cute little emo grump. He’s still the prideful punk...but tends to break into song occasionally...must be after effects from RainbowLand... (I will help with any reference needed on this)
Voice Type: Pretty much the same as ever, Chuck Huber.
CAST TO: Pokejedservo*
