Blades of Furry (Episode 41: 30%)
aylee197 for Mimi
They are one of, if not, the closest friend that Emile has. Mimi is a talented and competitive battle skater who is extremely loyal to friends and brother Hana. They have a fun disposition and enjoys mocking the people they are close to, but deep down they deeply care for their wellbeing and success in the sport of battle skating.
(Inflection type: Zestful, pryful, fun and feisty!)
Director's note:
* Hana in the comic is non-binary, hence the 'they/them' pronouns used out of respect. Personally I'm looking for a female vocal to her inflection, but boys are welcome to try!
** Emile (the main protagonist), his name is pronounced as 'EE' - 'MEAL'.
*** Not gonna lie, Mimi is gonna be ALOT OF FUN to voice as, heck even I want to voice her but I know it should belong to someone else! Her attitude! That sass! But also benevolent in the right moments.

What did you skate on when you were learning?
RENTALS!? You were on rentals for a decade?!
Wait!! No way!! You're joking, right?There you are, my dudes!
You two are coming with me, you slippery little shits!!
Alright, here we are!! Welcome, my children... To the Kitsu School of Stealth Dating!!Hell, people are already planning your wedding Emile!!
Ok, I commissioned that one to piss you off, but my point still stands.
Ok, RUDE!!
But you're right, I'm not the one with the experience here. Hana is.
I just realized that I pronounced Emile's name incorrectly. So sorry about that!
Heya Aylee197! Very nice work! Audio clarity is pretty spot on - but there were some parts where breathes can be heard for pops which can be a hinderance (a pop filter can help reduce that issue!). I can definitely feel the sass and fun in your vocal! You accentuate it on your second take too! The only thing that lacked is a kind of a faster pacing energy! You hear it often from characters just like to talk alot in a fun/mockery way to their friends! I will say that where you excel in after listening to your demo reel - your neutral vocal tends to lean towards a mid-neutral to graceful inflection. Take advantage of that and thank you kindly for auditioning for Mimi! ;) And no worries on the mispronunciation of Emile! XD All good!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave detailed feedback! It is always super helpful to hear back and know how I can improve my future performances! I definitely hear some breaths that I should've caught in the post editing, time to put on a better pop filter! :) All the best! - Aylee
Your most welcome Aylee197! The feedback was well deserved! Keep at it on your future performances! ;)
