Intro:
Hi! I am TwoHearted, a stage actor with a passion for storytelling, art, and self-expression. This is my first time directing a dub, and I’m excited to collaborate with you on this!
What this is?
Quite simply a fandub of the Valentine's Day OVA from Persona 5 Animation.
I adore the Persona series and would like to put English voices to this lovely OVA, which shows the different ways you can spend Valentine’s Day in the game with your female companions and confidants.
Currently looking for multiple roles (All the romanceable companions, Ryuji, Sojiro, and Morgana)
Notes for auditioning:
While it’d be nice to have voices matching closely with the original voice actors, the most important thing is evoking the character. Matching directly to the voices is less important than capturing who the character is.
This is ultimately a romantic-comedy, so let’s have fun with it!
Also, after you’ve read the lines, feel free to add anything else~
You’re more than welcome, even encouraged, to audition for multiple roles you might be interested in.
Please attach your Discord username in your audition.
If you have any questions at all feel free to ask me. Thanks.
The heart of the Phantom thieves. Ann is incredibly compassionate, both to foes and friends alike. She is bubbly and full of an infectious optimism.

Hey, what are you staring at? You’re making me nervous.
*beat*
Look at the lights! Ooh. Want to ride?
Even though it was so noisy before, it’s so quiet up here. Just the two of us. Honestly, I just wanted to sit close to you like this. My strategy was a success!
You’re going home next month…Does that mean this will be a long distance relationship…?
*beat*
Ah, let’s not focus on that. We still have plenty of time to enjoy ourselves.
Futaba is a former shut-in, only recently coming out of her shell thanks to Ren, Sojiro, and the Phantom Thieves. Hidden within is an excitable, joyous girl with a child-like innocence and wholesome light.

--(crashes into Ren) Ah, I’m sorry. I’m just bad at moving my body, so it’s good you were there just in time. Especially since it’s just us two…Eeek! I got it now.
When you’re with me, Ren, I experience a lot of things for the first time, so it’s not boring. Today’s Valentine’s, huh…umm…..have this! *hands him a gift* It’s chocolate. Cliché isn’t it?
We’ve made a lot of memories. I’d like just one final one…
A sweet, cheerful fortune teller from the countryside. She crosses Ren’s path after he buys a strange stone from her. Despite being a black sheep for most of her life for her powers, she remains positive, especially around Ren.

It’s wonderful, right. Even though we’re in the middle of the city, it’s full of nature. There’s an aura surrounding this place. I can feel it’s energy…Can’t you feel it?
I’ve been continuing my work as a fortune teller. Lately, more people have shown me more gratitude, even if they got a bad fortune. If the fortune makes them happy then it’s worth it.
I’m in luck. What are you thinking about right now? I--I wish this moment would last forever.
Reserved until she gets into a shogi match, where she unleashes her passion for the game. Hifumi is largely isolated thanks to her being a celebrity shogi player. After meeting Ren, she opens up more and finds her place in the shogi world, becoming a more grounded person as a result.

It’s okay. It’s dark here, so no one would know it’s me. I wouldn’t mind if someone recognized me, but wouldn’t you be bothered?
(he responds)
Wow, that’s a relief.
Until I met you, I never really saw myself having a boyfriend. I should focus more on learning about life outside of shogi.
I never was anxious about being alone, until I met you…You’re going home next month, right? Even though it’s an indoor pool, I’m still a little cold. So warm…If only we could stay like this forever.
Part-time Teacher, part-time Sex worker. Kawakami has fallen on hard times after being extorted by a pair of unscrupulous parents. She pushes herself to do what she needs out of guilt. Despite not showing it as much early on, she genuinely cares for her students and all their, uh, needs.

It’s been a while since I was last here, but it still looks like a teenage boy lives here. I guess that makes sense. When I heard you turned yourself in, I was shocked. Doing that without telling me. You really are trouble.
Since I came all the way out here, wouldn’t you prefer I wore my maid outfit. Like old times. “Ohh, master, are you lonely? Meow. meow.
Hey, put your head here…Come on, it’ll be okay. You have pretty eyelashes--and your hair is so soft. This time you’re gonna listen to my needs.

t’s amazing how flowers can even bloom in winter. They grow so beautifully even though it’s cold.
After you turned yourself in, I’d come here, hoping it’d calm me down. I guess it might have helped a little.
You’re going home next month, right…I’ll be busy with work then too…So maybe we should uh…
Wait. I can visit you on my days off. I guess I did spend all this time waiting for your release, so a little distance wouldn’t be so bad.
On the surface Tae is a sarcastic, sardonic doctor, oozing with sex appeal. While that is true, Tae is also actually supremely devoted to saving lives and advancing medicine.

Here, this is for you. I ordered it from overseas so it’s safe. Why are you inspecting it so hard? It’s just chocolate for my boyfriend…Can I sit next to you?
It’s been a while since we’ve been like this. You’ve changed a lot from when I first met you. You look more like a man.
I was never into younger guys, but…It’s been so long since we’ve…it’ll be okay for valentine’s day? Don’t act like you’ll say no.

I’m always stuck at a desk studying, so something like this is exciting. You’ll show me a good time, right? Thanks.
I have to study for University entrance exams, so until then, this might be the last day I can really enjoy myself. Wait, look at that! “Limited Valentine event: Key of Vows. Eternally inseparable.” Wanna go?
You’re going back next month right? What will happen to us? R-really? There’s so much I wanted to tell you, but I feel like no words can do justice to how I feel….I’ve waited for you for so long. I’m not asking for too much, am I?
A cynical journalist, who spends her limited free time at bars in an attempt to drown out her wavering morals and feelings of powerlessness. After meeting Ren, she regains her lost sense of duty and ethical code. She is quite comical with a lot of nuance and depth to her beneath her alcoholic veneer.

What do you think? Adult dates can be pretty fun, huh? I say that, but you’re still a minor so don’t go betting on horses! You should obey that without question, unless…you were imagining different “adult stuff.” *laughs* Oh god, sorry, I made it awkward. It’s just been a while…
You went to juvie without telling me. You’re really something else. It’s okay, but… Here. It was limited edition and I had to wait forever in line for it. Oh and save a few for me. I want to try.
You’re going home next month…we don’t have much time left…*beat* *laugh*Sorry I didn’t mean to pressure you. I can wait, and besides you’re in high school. It’s just--It’s kind of annoying to be at someone’s beck and call. I’ll make sure you never forget me.
The loyal companion of Ren. Ryuji is defiant, rebellious, and harbors a strong distaste for authority. Especially “rotten adults”.

Why the hell am I not getting any chocolate?!?! I just called Yusuke, and even he got some. He’s probably just happy to get free food…REN! Forreal?!
Did you get any chocolate? That’s my RenRen! Right. Here. I was buying something at the store and the lady gave me this. You can have it.
Yes, you are…NOT! It’s just for friends. Now that I think about it, why aren’t the girls giving us any? C’mon, we’re on the same team. I mean Forreal!
After finally warming up to Ren, Sojiro becomes an essential figure in his life. He is caring and charming. For this: looking for a silver lung--someone who has the smoothest of voices. Like a saxophone speaking English.

Kid, what’d you do?!
What a pain, I had to come up with this whole web of lies to cover for you. “I was having him help out at the shop and didn’t realize what day it was. Sorry. Ren is always talking about you. You’re his one and only.” Just make sure your story matches mine, okay?
Welcome, back.
Morgana views himself as the hero, and acts as sort of a ward for Ren, often keeping him in check.

I’ll see you later, if you survive that is.
Make sure you thank the boss.
Go to sleep.

There’s this opera I wanted to see, and it’d be a shame to waste the left over ticket I got. Opportunities like this don’t come often, so I dressed for the occasion, but…it might be a little too flashy.
Have you seen an opera before? The play is from a foreign theater group so you might not understand what they’re saying, but the power of their voices might still reach you. Will you escort me?
Wow, so straight-forward. You were always honest during the interrogations too. If you’re ever in the area, come by and I’ll take you out for sushi.
