Credit as well as links will be given in every video and I will give a recommendation to everyone who is cast!
It's been a long time coming, but I'm finally posting comic dubs to my YouTube channel! I'm starting out with Miraculous Ladybug then later down the line will also make fandubs of other things. I have multiple comics already saved to record and post, all I need are the voices! If cast, you will be in multiple comics (unless you ask to be a temporary VA) so this is a long term commitment. I will spread out due dates over the school year to not make it too overwhelming, all I ask is for the audio to be sent by whatever deadline I have set (unless you let me know ahead of time that you need an extension). I will hold auditions for other characters as I need them, but for now I'm only casting the characters I need currently. Thank you for considering this project, and I hope to work with you soon!
Requirements:
-Ideally a discord, though I can also sent lines through email
-A decent microphone
-Little to no background noise
-Ability to work long term
-Ability to get audio in by deadline
-Ability to communicate
-Ability to show emotion (I can work with you if you have difficulty, but you must be willing to try)
-13+
Will have the most lines out of all the characters. A boy with a heart of gold, but also very cocky and loves puns. He's seen as the "perfect boy" as Adrien-a supermodel, son of the famous fashion designer Gabriel Agreste, and overall kindhearted and hardworking. He's able to let loose, however, when he becomes Chat Noir.Β
Looking for someone who isn't afraid to hold back when it comes to emotions, and really showcases his personality. I'm not looking for someone to mimic his voice in the English dub, just use whatever voice you think will fit his personality!Β

(Cocky) Gotta go. A superhero's work is never done. Damsels in distress, ladies in waiting... I've got a lot more saving to do. You can thank me later.
(Transformation) Plagg, claws out!
(I donβt want you to copy exactly how they do this scene, I just want to see how emotional you can voice this scene. I provided this link and the other characters lines for contextΒ https://youtu.be/jJ1aeee0BJs?t=58Β )
Β [...] No, just stop! [...] Stop it, stop it, STOP IT!!! [...] I'm sorry, Ladybug... [...] I... I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!
Lines From Comics
(Sadly) You know...sometimes I don't really know where I belong... When I'm not Chat Noir, I feel like I'm trapped in myself, I don't have the opportunity to fully blossom, so, when I wear the mask, I do what I want, I feel free to be who I really am.
(Angry) No, you're protecting yourself like this! If you want to show me that our friendship is valuable, why don't you take risks? Why do you treat me differently than your other friends?
(Sentimental) You know Marinette, I am really happy to have you as a friend. I was not very well lately, I often felt lonely, but thinking about you, I realized that I was not alone. You were always there when I needed. Thank you.
Ladybug's kwami. Tikki gives her the powers of the Ladybug miraculous-mainly being the power of creation. She's very positive, encouraging, and the voice of reason. She also has a love of all things sweet. She's in a few fan comics, but doesn't have a ton of lines.
You don't have to do an exact impression of the English VA, though I do imagine her with a pretty high pitched voice.Β

(Sarcastic, then reminding her) Yeah, if by emergency, you mean jealousy. You know what happens once you use your Lucky Charm. You only have minutes before-
(Voice of reason) Marinette. You're a superhero, not a star. You have to remain a mystery. To protect yourself from Hawk Moth and all his supervillains.
Lines From Comics
(Matter-of-factly) β¦That is NOT Marinette.
(Confused) Marinette, is this really necessary? Adrien only asked for an edit
(encouraging) You always figure something out, Marinette!
Plagg is Chat Noir's kwami, which gives him the power of destruction. He's very sarcastic, carefree, and reckless. Most of his lines are humorous and majority are about his love of camembert cheese. I added one emotional line above to see a bit of emotional range, but comedic timing and tone is mainly what I'm looking for!Β
Looking for someone who showcases his personality. I'm not looking for someone to mimic his voice in the English dub or French dub, just use whatever voice you think will fit his personality! (I genuinely don't know if I prefer the deep voice or high pitched voice, so just do whatever you think fits him!

Lines From Show
(Sentimental) Thank you, Adrien. [...] No. Just⦠thanks for letting me do whatever I want, almost all the time. [...] You're the best Cat Noir I've ever had, Adrien. But let's not get too cheesy about it now, huh?
(He says it seriously, but it's supposed to be humorous) I already know what my worst nightmare is, and you'll never get me to eat dairy-free cheese!
Return to school?! Are you crazy?! No more homework, no more alarm clocks! We should be celebrating! Hey, I know! I named this piece El Plaggo. It's been maturing for nine hundred and ninety-nine days!
(Sarcastic) Youβre right. Breaking her heart with flowers will be MUCH more romantic
Lines From Comics
(Complaining) Adrien, what are we doing here? You say my camembert stinks, but this is hell!
(Β https://www.instagram.com/p/CPIbIewhNIQ/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheetΒ page 5 for context)Β Go!! Find the akuma and reverse the damage already!!!
(talking to Adriens son in the future, humorous scene) You better know your place, you vermin. Iβve known Adrien all his life and Iβve always been his favorite kitten. You think you can barge in here and take my place? Iβm not Marinette. Iβm not something you can throw out and replace just like that. So donβt get any ideas, buddy.
(Arguing about thatΒ he should have more cheese, again, humorous) I WILL CATACLYSM YOUR WHOLE HOUSE. I WILL CATACLYSM YOUR FACE.
Gabriel Agreste is the antagonist of the series along with Adrien's father. He is the villain, Hawkmoth, who is trying to get Ladybug and Chat Noirs miraculous in order to make a wish with them to bring his wife back to life. He is very controlling and, though not outright stated, emotionally abusive towards Adrien. He shows concern and love towards Adrien every so often, but then goes back to his normal ways (Yes, the fandom hates him). He does show concern and love to Natalie, however, who is his assistant who he has grown some romantic feelings for.
The English VA is a good example of what voice I'm looking for, though it doesn't have to be an exact impression. Feel free to do whatever voice you think fits him!

(angry) Someday, the Miraculous will be all mine. I don't care how many enemies I need to throw out to win, but I will beΒ victorious!
(evil) I found you, though, my little Nooroo. Your Miraculous, remind me of its powers again [β¦] And when it comes to luring superheroes, what could be better than creating supervillains? [β¦] I must have this absolute power! Your Miraculous is in my control! I am your master now, and you must obey me.
(getting on to Adrien) You are not going to school, I've already told you! [β¦] Everything you need is right here where I can keep an eye on you. I will not have you outside in that dangerous world. [β¦] Because you are not like everyone else! You are my son!
(stern) Adrien, I am your father, and I am giving you the responsibility to attend this press conference. Under no circumstances will you leave that room until it's finished. All I'm asking is that you honor my work and the memory of your mother. Do we have an agreement?
Lines From Comics
(concerned) Well, I still insist you get some rest. How many hours of sleep have you been getting? [...] β¦Per night? [...] Natalie, I insist that you turn in for the night. Especially combined with the fact that youβre not fully healed from using the peacock miraculousβ¦Itβs not good for you.
(desperate) Iβm so sorry, please forgive me. I never meant to make you cryβ¦
Natalie is Gabriel's assistant who also helps him as the villain Mayura. The peacock miraculous has made her very sick so she's not able to help as much as she wants to. She's in love with Gabriel and promised to help bring his dead wife back, despite their mutual feelings. She's very stern and has a monotone, business like attitude the majority of the time. Sometimes, however, she slips up into a more caring tone towards Gabriel and Adrien.
I'm not looking for anyone to do an exact impression of her English VA, however something similar would be great. Feel free to use any voice you feel shows off her personality!

(Determined) Gabriel would never allow me to do this, but I'm going to create a very powerful sentimonster. The most powerful one that's ever existed. [...] Gabriel so desperately wants the Miraculous, and I want to be the one to give it to him!
(To Gabriel about Adrien)It's been one year. The longer you keep him in the dark about what you're doing, the harder it'll be on him when he finds out
(To Adrien, emotionless) Your father came to see you earlier, but you'd gone out. I'll tell him that you're waiting for him. Just making sure you'll stay in your room this time.
(Spoiler for season 5)Β (angry) You were with the miraculous of time, you could have chosen to save Emile, to save me! Instead, you chose your obsession with ladybug and chat noir. Youβre crazy, Gabriel. [...] You donβt deserve my help. You donβt deserve anyoneβs help!
Lines From Comics
(Overwhelmed) This has got to be the most packed fashion week Iβve ever been part ofβ¦ [...] I have 31 thank you emails to write, 50 new resumes to review, and more complaints than I can count.
(Business Tone) Now, what you will be doing today. The first meeting will be an interview with the news which will be 15 minutes. Then you will appear with the other featured creators at the opening ceremony. After that, you have a few minutes of downtime. Where I suggest you-
There are many characters in this series, so it'd be hard to list the roles of all the characters! The teachers, any of the classmates, Marinette's parents, the other kwami's, etc. will all be cast here. If there's a certain character you'd like the have the role of (such as Chloe, Luka, Alya, or Nino) then let me know in the description of your audition, that doesn't guarantee the role, but it helps me have an idea of what you're going for.
Submit your demo reel down below! If you don't have a demo reel, then submit one of your favorite auditions you've done!
