Noragami Anime Fandub
Project Overview
This project is a long-term fandub of the anime, Noragami, meaning we will be dubbing over the 1st season of the anime in its entirety, and maybe Noragami: Arigato afterwards! This audition is for all the characters in the first season!
About Noragami-
In times of need, if you look in the right place, you just may see a strange telephone number scrawled in red. If you call this number, you will hear a young man introduce himself as the Yato God. Yato is a minor deity and a self-proclaimed "Delivery God," who dreams of having millions of worshippers. Without a single shrine dedicated to his name, however, his goals are far from being realized. He spends his days doing odd jobs for five yen apiece, until his weapon partner becomes fed up with her useless master and deserts him. Just as things seem to be looking grim for the god, his fortune changes when a middle school girl, Hiyori Iki, supposedly saves Yato from a car accident, taking the hit for him. Remarkably, she survives, but the event has caused her soul to become loose and hence able to leave her body. Hiyori demands that Yato return her to normal, but upon learning that he needs a new partner to do so, reluctantly agrees to help him find one. And with Hiyori's help, Yato's luck may finally be turning around.
About the Director-
Hi! My name is Rae! I am 19 years old and a writer as well as an aspiring voice actor/voice director. I am a big fan of the MHA series and have been since the beginning! I really am excited to dub over this entire manga because it is by far, one of my favorites! For this project, I will be the director, casting director, script writer, and voice actor of Nora! I will be looking for an audio engineer/video editor, so you will meet them once they are casted! I also have a co-director, who you will meet if casted! I'm looking forward to it and good luck!

Hiyori is a kind-hearted and brave individual who will go out of her way to help someone in danger, even if she does so at risk to her own safety. This extends not only to her loved ones, but also to strangers. She has a strong moral compass and is usually willing to speak out against others if she feels their actions are wrong, although she has shown herself to be slightly more lenient at times when the matter concerns a friend. She is very perceptive of those around her, able to see good intentions behind others' seemingly cruel words or actions. Despite this, Hiyori can be a bit air-headed or naive. She is also rather easily flustered when confronted with matters of romance.
Hiyori is deeply loyal to those she trusts and does not subdue her emotions. Though she wishes to be completely human again, Hiyori has no desire to sever her ties with Yato or Yukine, and refuses to do so several times even though it would be her best chance to return to normal. Despite expecting disapproval from her mother for being unladylike, Hiyori is a huge fan of martial arts. She has a fixation on a martial artist called Tono, who she adores and copies attacks from. She often becomes inspired and act on his words, following his advice of "pave [their] destiny with their own hands."

The gap between the rich and the poor exists even among the gods.
(Serious) I won't stand for anything that makes people do terrible things!
All the gods have a nice smell to them, but that smell is slightly different for each one.
Yukine speaks his mind freely and has a biting sense of humor. He is rather outgoing, making friends easily when given the opportunity. He possesses a strong sense of right and wrong and diligently works to improve himself after past mistakes. Over time, he also gains a sense of pride and responsibility toward guiding Yato as his lead shinki, becoming attached to the point that he is insecure of Yato relying on other shinki. Yukine is quite easily led by his emotions, sometimes acting impulsively without realizing the consequences– particularly when the matter concerns people who are important to him. He has a tendency to lock others out or lash out in anger when he feels betrayed, but normally demonstrates a deep sense of loyalty and protectiveness over the people he cares about.

(Upset) Why can't I have anything? I really am alone. I have nothing. Nothing at all.
(Questioning) Why can I still feel physical things? Even though I'm already dead...
(Yelling) Let me out! Let me out, damn it!
Bishamon is shown to be quite generous towards her Shinki. She willingly accepts any wandering and troubled spirit, useful or not, and adds them to her family. Due to her failure in saving her Shinki in the past, Bishamon decides to be more distant from them, depicting herself as a fierce goddess and making sure that they are not worried about her, which only resulted in them being more insecure and lonely. Due to her past with Yato, she was bent on vengeance and decided to destroy anything he held dear to himself. After finding out the true story about the death of her previous family of Shinki, Bishamon eventually lets go of her vengeance against Yato. Furthermore, she slowly begins to be able to accept him as her ally.
She cares for her friends and will do whatever she can to protect and help them. She is a fairly friendly person and usually formal to people. Even after being a Goddess of Fortune and being able to reincarnate after dying. She refuses to let go of her life as she values her current individual self and doesn't wish to be replaced. Bishamon refuses to give up and pushes herself to the end. Even after being severely blighted, she refuses to back out. This also shows that she believes in her own decision and doesn't allow her will to crumble. Once she decides on a particular task, she forces herself past every limit to accomplish it.

(Empathizing) You are human, are you not? You are allowed to make mistakes.
(Serious) You asked me if I was ready to carry on. In all honesty, I am not sure of myself.
(Serious, angry) It may be a grudge that drives me to slay you, but regardless, it is my duty to bring justice to all evil!
Daikoku is a somewhat stern and intimidating individual, especially on his first impression. He can also be aggressive when defending his master, Kofuku, while at other times he is very open and gentle with his affections toward her. He is deeply loyal and would go to great lengths for those he cares about, even risking his life. He has been described by other characters as a stable and unimposing shinki. Daikoku also seems to have a soft spot for children and would have liked to be a father.

(Annoyed) What sins have you committed?! Confess them all!
Gods are born from the wishes of people. Those with famous names would continue to be recognized and worshipped.
(Serious) Severing a bond is much harder than making one.
Kofuku is known to have a bright and mischievous personality, similar to Yato. She's described as a bit of a dunce airhead; carefree and openly stating that she likes to have fun (and sometimes cause chaos). However, Daikoku keeps her from doing anything too hectic. She is very loving to those she's close to, treating Daikoku more like a companion/spouse than a servant.
Kofuku is also shown to have a serious side and isn't afraid to intimidate and challenge others regardless of who they are. Though she shows a personality relative to an airhead, it's shown through a plethora of interactions that she is very aware of the world and the dangers that lurk out in the open

(Excited, flustered) You gentlemen don't have to fight over little ol' me!
(Serious) As former humans, only Regalias can judge the sins of other Regalias.
(Sweet, happy) Don't get the wrong idea, okay? My Daikoku loves kids! That's all Yatty meant.
Kazuma is a calm, serious, and sensible person. He cares deeply for Vaisravana/Bishamonten, calling her by a pet name, "Veena", as well as his fellow Shinki. He is also shown to be extremely loyal to his master, as well as responsible and trustworthy. He also honors his debts. He is polite to everyone, regardless of if he is stressed or not. When he was just starting as a shinki, he was shown to have no talent but is currently a blessed shinki, meaning he is hardworking and his loyalty and care for Veena motivated him to be the best shinki he could. He is a kind person in general and a good teacher. Despite his serious nature, he is shown to have a comical side, particularly when it comes to his loyalty/crush/mild obsession with Bishamon. He also enjoys teasing his friends.
He is very knowledgeable about his duties as a shinki and about techniques to use as a blessed shinki, despite most likely not having a teacher. He is very analytical of Bishamon's battle situations and does his best to guide everyone to make sure they can help her to the best of their abilities. Despite showing pride in his abilities, he is not arrogant about them and does his best to continue improving himself for Bishamon's sake. In order not to blight his master, he is shown to suppress his feelings and not feel guilt for his actions, no matter what they be. Furthermore, he claims that he's imperfect and has regrets. However, he felt that he did the right thing and so it was not a sin and doesn't warrant anyone's criticism. His loyalty to Bishamon can go to extremes as he was willing to slay his fellow shinki to save he.

People don't always wish for good things. There are evil wishes, too.
(Serious) If this delinquent known as Yukine isn't dealt with soon, Yato will die.
If you personally wish to be eaten by phantoms, then go right ahead, but tell me, do you wish the same for Kuraha and the others?
Mayu is honest and blunt, unafraid to complain when she dislikes a person or her current circumstances. She has a strong sense of duty and high standards for behavior as a shinki, as well as compassion and sympathy for humans and fellow shinki. She also demonstrates loyalty to her friends, to the point that she would risk putting herself in danger for one's sake.

People tend to carry deeply rooted darkness in their hearts, making complete purification difficult. Such a waste of precious life...
(Serious) Be careful. The darkness is always right there next to you.
(Happy she's free) As if you deserve any courtesy. Later loser!
Being the God of Teaching, he has values for those who pray to him, have diligence, and work hard. He is very wise and often speaks in a poetic manner. However, he has a playful side; he can also be frivolous at times and may be prone to abandon a certain task. Unlike other lenient gods, such as Yato or Bishamon, Tenjin is quick to exile any of his shinki should they sting him. Also, like many other gods, excluding some exceptions such as Ebisu, Tenjin finds strays to be repulsive and will not take them in as one of his shinki, unless he finds it vital for the situation. He also enjoys popularity as one of the most prominent Gods.

(Serious) One god is no more.
Your connection grants her too much of a focus on our world. It'll keep her from living in her own.
(Explaining) A Regalia with many owners is akin to a stray cat and is commonly referred to as a "Nora."
Aimi is kind and supportive of Hiyori, one of her best friends. She seems to be reasonable, calm and mature. She often worries for Hiyori when she falls asleep (due to her soul slipping out of her body). She is a loyal, kind friend who worries about and supports her friends. She seems to be smart and gets good grades. She also likes teasing Hiyori, as shown when Hiyori mentioned she was meeting a younger boy. She has a quieter personality than Akira, her other best friend, though doesn't seem shy. While not as obsessed with boys as Akira, she did show jealousy when Akira and her boyfriend were flirting, comically stating couples should drop dead.

That's quite a name. Some people are really weird about their pets.
(Questioning) Well which do you think is more god-like Hiyori?!
I didn't know you liked martial arts. Are you a closet fan?
Yama is a tomboy with a loud, friendly personality. She is shown to desire to be popular. Like Aimi, she is kind and supportive of Hiyori, but also likes to tease her. This is shown when Hiyori said that she was going to meet a younger boy. She also showed slight jealousy that Hiyori had a "boyfriend", showing Yama has a strong interest in boys. She is not very smart as she often gets held back in class for makeup exams. She often worries for Hiyori when she falls asleep, often crying out that Hiyori has fallen asleep again.

That's what gods are for, to hear people's wishes. Who cares about their schedules.
(Curious) Anyways Hiyori, are there any guys you do like? Besides Tono, of course.
(Worried, panicking) Hiyori! Hiyori! Can you hear me?! Hiyori! Say something!
Rabō appears to be a cautious and careful character. He carefully gauges an enemy's strength and abilities before he will personally engage in combat. He enjoys letting himself get seen very briefly, as to hint to his presence and put his target on edge. He is also a cold character, killing humans, phantoms, and gods alike (regardless of whether it's a job or a personal grudge).

(Serious) We are gods of calamity. Where we rise is also where we fall.
(Annoyed) Where is Yato, the god of calamity... with those beautiful eyes of depravity? Where is THAT Yato god?!
However many wishes we grant, people will always fear, loathe, and forget gods of calamity.
Little is known about Takamasa except that he is a very loving figure to his daughter, Hiyori Iki, and he is always looking out for her well-being and happiness.

(Relieved) Thank goodness you're awake. We were so worried.
Good. Everything looks normal.
You've been through a trauma, maybe your memory is still a bit hazy.
Sayuri is portrayed to be quite old fashioned. In addition to being melodramatic in personality, she holds all the traditional aspirations for her children, such as wanting Hiyori to find a good husband and have a family of her own. It is largely hinted that she would not approve of Hiyori's interest in wrestling, viewing it as "barbaric" and not acceptable for a young lady.

(Worried) How do you feel? Are you in pain? Don't just stand there dear, examine her!
You must be exhausted... why don't you get some rest?
Because she does not have human emotions, Tsuyu is always calm and level-headed. She is loyal and protective of Tenjin, remaining by his side even during his violent early years. Her manner of speech is very archaic and poetic-sounding. She has also been shown to be a mentoring figure.

(Calm) It's true. To put it simply, you already serve in the employee of one god, and to bow before another like so, is to disprespect your master.
My lord, Mayu is still new to these parts. I would suggest another guide.
Not much is known about Ayu, but she is sweet, loyal, and protective of her master, Tenjin. Her manner of speech is very poetic-sounding and friendly.

Kuraha is seen to be a calm man but becomes vicious when it comes to protecting his master Bishamon. He's very loyal to her and can be described as a serious shinki as well. He seems to be second in command behind Kazuma. Tt is seen that when he is drunk, he can apparently do circus tricks and starts acting like a house cat or house dog. He's known to play with catnip, catching a frisbee, and jumping through a flaming loop of fire.
I don't have a set voice for him, but if it could be somewhat middle to lower-pitched, that would be great!

Vents are ticky. They open when you least expect them, but doing this can help a bit.
While not much is known of her personality, she seems to be a calm, mature person. Like the rest of Bishamon's shinki, she is loyal to her master. She can be somewhat curt.

Tsuguha is depicted as being somewhat timid due to being a relative newcomer to Bishamon's group, however, she is also a romanticist who envisions Bishamon and Yato's rivalry to stem from belligerent sexual tension.
I don't have a set voice for her, but if it could be somewhat high-pitched, that would be great!
