Lucid Dreamer VN (Trailer) - Main Cast Casting
Sylvia Flora for Fumiko Hisakawa
Fumiko Hisakawa is a third-year and the council president at Kaname's high school. Externally, she is calm and intense, commanding respect from those who see her in action. Coming from a family of politicians, she is remarkably talented as an organizer. While a part of her does enjoy the attention and respect she receives, underneath her mask is a passionate and sometimes eccentric manga writer. Having become friends with Kaname and Chiharu in junior high and written manga together, she now finds herself too busy with responsibilities to spend much time on relationships. Still, she is focused on self-improvement and wants her social life to be easier.
Character Details
Age: 17
Archetype: Ruler / Side Character
Character Type: Static Character
We're looking for someone with a low-medium voice who can pull off Fumiko's refined facade and her vibrant personality. One thing to note is that while she can come across as blunt occasionally, it's never out of insensitivity. Instead, Fumiko prioritizes honesty above all, even if it hurts. Here are some voice references to help you understand what we're looking for:
Kari Wahlgren (Saber - Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works) - https://youtu.be/ix4thQNoXIA?feature=shared&t=41
This clip exemplifies the low end of Fumiko's voice.
Erica Mendez (Mai Sakurajima - Rascal Does Not Dream) - https://youtu.be/Oy0G_bo5HR4?feature=shared
This clip is the highest end we want Fumiko's voice to be.
Feel free to put your own spin on Fumiko, but overall, anywhere within that vocal range is acceptable. Remember: Make sure you have two takes per line going in order from top to bottom. The context for each line will be shown below to help you with your audition.
Line A Context: After Fumiko rejects Kaname, Kaname asks why she doesn't want to go out with him. While she believes she will come across as blunt, Fumiko wants to be as honest as possible.
Line B Context: Shaking off the incident, Fumiko parts ways with Kaname. She still hopes to be friends with him despite all that's happened.
Line C Context: At the opening ceremony of Meiseki Yume High School, Fumiko stands on top of a podium to address the entire school.

A. (Stern) Even if I wasn't busy with school work, I'd still refuse. (Stoic) You’re a nice guy, Kaname, but you’re just not my type. I’m sorry. Besides, I value our friendship too much to risk losing it.
B. (Neutral) We should get going. We don’t want to miss the opening ceremony. I’ll see you later, Kaname. (mutters under breath) I hope we can still be friends.
C. (Inspiring) I want to thank everyone for being here. I’m well aware most of the students present are first-years. First off, welcome to Meiseki Yume High School. My name is Fumiko Hisakawa, and I will be your student council president.
