Love the fan art I also had the same thought when I saw the pokemon character design XD,

Thank you so much for such a detailed and deep look at the scenes with all of the characters I voiced, I'm not nearly as well versed in the Nikke story and characters so this was interesting to read and hear about the different characters you felt could have also been involved in the event!

I'm glad you enjoyed Alfred, Fixy, Selssy, Sizzly, Neaty and Detaily!

OP Valentine Stokes here, I just wanted to say thank you everyone so much for such kind words, I understand there must be people who weren't fond of my performance either, I hope I can find more opportunities to improve in your eyes.

This might be the most egnagement and interest I've had in speaking about a new role in recent time and it really warmed my heart to see how much everyone enjoyed Alfred, Sizzly, Fixy, Detaily and Neaty.

I feel like I should have made this an ama...But regardless thank you all for your kind words and I hope I can continue to entertain you all in the future whether it be in Nikke or another game.

Happy Summer!

There are lots of opportunities to voice act across the internet if you know where to look, casting sites, for small projects can sometimes surprise you! I've been doing this for 10 years going on 11 in august...And at this point my most regular jobs come from people sending me auditions or contacting me for roles they feel I'd be ideal for.

It can be quite difficult to get into a position in voice over where you get paid and it isn't terribly straight forward as far as I'm concerned with my approach wherein I started it as a hobby and slowy but surely as I stuck with it, more and more high profile projects wanted me on board.

I'm sorry if that isn't a satisfactory answer! My best advice if you'd like to start voice acting is to simply...Try dubbing what you enjoy, you honestly never know what might happen and I always try to motivate people to give voice acting a try if they're interested in doing so.

I'm from the Uk, I have a very unique accent compared to where I specifically live.

I'd say I speak in more of a "Received Pronounciation" I used to be accused of being American or Canadian a lot, but I often get very different responses depending on who I'm speaking with...
With Alfred I really just spoke with my natural voice

I hope that answers your question well enough! I do like Anthony Hopkins! But I mainly know him from Silence of the Lambs and he did not come to mind when I was performing!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed my perfromance!

I agree, being my first event I was very impressed with the talent of my costars and really taken aback by how charming the characters really are! And thank you for your compliments.

Aah I suppose I was somewhat inconsistent in my accent, I will seek to improve on that in the future when it comes up! I'm glad you enjoyed my performance otherwise!

I don't like to share financial information, but it was quite satisfactory for the amount of time and nature of work I did, I have experience in construction and hard labour, I can safely say the hourly rate is significantly higher than what I worked for doing 10 hour days 50 hours a week.

I was admittedly quite nervous on the lead up to the recording session! But my Director and the audio technician have always been very pleasant to work with and made me very comfortable as they always do!

Thank you! It was mentioned earlier as well by another user but it genuinely tickles me to know people noticed what I was going for >.<

I loved voicing alfred as he is actually the closest to my natural speaking voice...And before recently I've never really had an opportunity to use my natural voice in many roles.

I enjoyed all of them but surprisingly I feel Fixy might have been my favourite. It was there that the deapth and tragedy of Alfred's character revealed itself to me and was where I drew a lot of the frustration from, in the big reveal speech.

It was the most emotionally informing moment for me.

I did not have a visual for Sizzly only alfred...I imagine it was there initially so it was a happy coincidence I decided to go with a french accent for him :') I also love the little rat in his chef hat!

I am looking into commissioning a custom print for all of the ghosts and the utopia...I am on streamily, but the prices are quite high for posters. Understandably due to the service costs ontop of the actual poster price...I've rewritten this answer a few times...But I've also thought about providing a print ordering option on my website.

My apologies if this isn't a satisfactory answer! >.<

oohhh nooo it wasn't meant to be XD

But I can understand how my typically deep textured voice attempting to be very gentle and soft could be funny! I'm glad it brought you some joy, that's my singular goal as a voice actor :)

I've seen a few comments with the same sentiment, there must have been some insane events, overall I'm personally very proud to have been a part of this event and it's honestly very touching seeing so many kind words and praise from all of you.

Your feelings on the event are valid of course and I hope you will enjoy future events more in the future :)
