Makeup Required

“Makeup Required” is the second story in the Famous James Adventures series, following Famous James, an English teacher in Japan, and his adult students through a week of mid-term tests, a Battle of the Bands competition, and an unexpected request that sends the story in a new direction. Warm, funny, and character-driven, it continues the growing world introduced in Escape from the Lost Samurai.

This audiobook features a cast of professional voice actors led by returning performers Alpha Takahashi and Yoshi Ando, whose work helped establish the voices of the series in the first audiobook. Their performances are joined here by Sal Locascio, Troy Macfarland, and series creator Jim Merk, giving the story a strong sense of personality, continuity, and emotional texture.

The cast brings together talent with credits across games, film, streaming, advertising, and voiceover. Alpha Takahashi is known for roles in Marvel Rivals, Cyberpunk 2077, Kubo and the Two Strings, and Blue Eye Samurai. Yoshi Ando has voiced projects for Apple, Disney, and Amazon, and also appeared in Blue Eye Samurai. Sal Locascio brings a performance background shaped by improv and music, while Troy Macfarland adds a grounded, story-driven presence shaped by work in music and media.

Listeners who enjoy “Makeup Required” can continue exploring the Famous James Adventures world through Escape from the Lost Samurai and future stories in the series. Together, these connected releases build a familiar cast of characters and a larger world that grows from story to story.
