So I went an made a thing. It may be a little extreme but oh hey, worth a try.

Image

Character Name: Marisu Akuchi
Age (Must be 18+): 19
Archetype: The Evil One Who Doesn’t Really Do Any Evil Things, mild Kamidere, Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain (kind of?)
Theme Song: Well I used her image, may as well use her theme
Major/Minor: Major in Drama, minor in Psychology
Equipment: Backpack of Unusually Limitless Holding, a book containing various standard villainous schemes and their applications, cell phone in which she writes about her day-to-day affairs and plots, another book listing various people she wants dead and how, various textbooks and writing books for educational work
Hobby: Observing and overanalysing fiction, getting into heated internet debates over said overanalysed fiction, playing video games (usually as evilly as possible), formulating and subsequently abandoning evil schemes, proclaiming her rising divinity and undeniable greatness (sometimes in those aforementioned internet debates), melodramatic acting in general, demanding rightful tribute from her future subjects (which she rarely ever actually collects on)
Blood Type (not important here; it's just a thing in Japan): O-
Background with Kiyoshi, if applicable: She has taken a particular interest in Kiyoshi ever since transferring schools to the one he attended in the past. She considers him an anomaly and this results in some very erratic behaviour. She also considers him to belong to her, but this is true of everything, so it is not a notable distinction.
Any additional information: For Marisu, life was once perfect. However, all that changed one day when her father died. Unable to cope with the loss effectively, she found inspiration in various tragic villains, somewhat neglecting to note the fact that they were villains. She became determined to make the universe which had so betrayed and tormented her suffer, and so declared that she would one day rule it- and then began her scheme to achieve exactly that. She has declared herself the Goddess-To-Be, and will say as much to anyone within earshot. Because of her loudness and general tendency to monologue, she has something of a reputation of eccentricity and malevolence, though actually rather lacks when it comes to physical strength, cunning, or originality.

Considering the world to belong to her and everyone within it thus already obligated to obey her whims, Marisu Akuchi tends towards the obnoxious. It is unknown how seriously she takes her self-made role of “rising dominator of the world”, whether it is a permanent goal or just a strange onset of some form of adolescent quirkiness which refuses to go away. What is known is that Marisu’s nature has led to develop skills in an extraordinary amount of areas (since she’s tried to use loads of different schemes in the past) although she isn’t particularly good at anything beyond maintaining her current role, overanalysing texts, and acting. While she has always maintained her desire to rule everything, she is rather unusual in that she constantly switches which villainous archetype she emulates- her favourites include mad scientist, sinister witch, evil queen / overlord, and psychotic serial killer. She’s also recently learned of the “yandere” archetype and is tempted to give that a try. However, is it worth noting that for all her talk and acting, she rarely actually does much evil, though she is perfectly willing to use it as an excuse for pretty much everything. What schemes she does actually implement are often unsuccessful or utterly petty and insignificant in actual impact.

She seeks to study Drama to perfect her acting skills (which are either terrible or incredible depending on whether you consider he normal behaviour to be acting), and psychology to better manipulate those around her. Marisu’s mother, while she cares about her daughters, has effectively given up on trying to salvage her sanity as she sees it and effectively lets Marisu do what she desires. However, she is trying to nudge her daughter to find love, hoping this will stabilise Marisu and make her less villainous and crazy. As for her peers, she likely has strained relationships with most of them due to her eccentricities and narcissism, though she is smart enough not to too badly irritate people likely to seriously physically asssult her over it.

Does she do the Himidere laugh?


Yes. She is well versed in the art of the Himiidere laugh, though is also prone to more traditional maniacal laughter in some circumstances.

Okay, so I threw an application earlier as a joke. Now I'm making it real. I'm welcome to making any changes, if you want to suggest anything.

Character Name: Fujita Kiyoshi (Alter) (called Alter-chan to distinguish her from the MC)
Image

Age (Must be 18+): 21
Archetype: Female anime villain, Tsundere
Theme Song: This, considering her inspirations...
Major/Minor: Economics/Aeronautical Engineering
Equipment: Notepad (with numerous scribbles all over), two "swords" (one "holy", one "corrupted"), a purse containing all sorts of items, numerous outfits which all fit the theme of "evil lady", swirly glasses, and a baseball hat.
Hobby: Hiking, Sailing, Driving, Video games, pissing people off
Blood Type (not important here; it's just a thing in Japan): AB
Background with Kiyoshi, if applicable: She's Kiyoshi from another dimension, where he's apparently a female and had been corrupted by forces unknown.
Any additional information: She has Kiyoshi's inexplicable charm too, but apparently it also works only on females. It's less powerful than his, making her only somewhat charming and likable despite her terrible personality, but anyone with strong enough willpower can shake its effects off.

Her background is somewhat more sketchy. According to her, she apparently had the same history as he did, minus the fact that sometime before she arrived at the current world she was abducted by aliens and experimented upon. Despite what appears to be the aliens' apparent efforts to "turn her into the greatest weapon the world has ever seen", it ended in failure, turning her into what she is know. Whether this is true remains to be seen, as she prefers to run away when forced into a confrontation.

How she arrived at the current world is even less believable. "I arrived here on a spaceship, I swear! No, you can't see it, it's destroyed and I can't go back!"

As for her personality, she's a classic tsundere. Appearing to be callous, selfish, and unconcerned for others, she disregards any form of etiquette and prefers to just do things instead of thinking it over. Despite this, she does show some sort of affection every now and then, though expect her trying to kill anyone who points it out. As for intelligence, frankly, she's stupid, and any sort of scheme she tries ultimately either ends in failure, or succeeds in a way that she won't benefit from. People even wonder how the heck she even managed to survive the many "adventures" she claims she had, as she's ultimately clumsy, stupid, and incapable of mainly everything she tries.
"They say I'm insane, but take a look at the world and tell me the pleasures of sanity."
My IRL politics are simple: anti-Chinese Communist Party. If a view is anti-CCP, no matter how bad it is, that's my view.

Welcome to the Casteliaverse! | Factbook Repository
A 10.125 civilization, according to this index, and a Class 1 Civilization according to this index.
I DO NOT USE NS STATS. This nation does not represent my IRL views.
This spoiler is a tribute to Vanquaria, whose level of based I aspire to achieve one day.

Character Name: Tenshi Roberta Reach/Fusui Tenshi
Age (Must be 18+): 22
Archetype: Rival, the Ace, asexual, vengeful, yakuza, brash and rude except toward friends/superiors
Theme Song: It was this or Downstait's Beatdown as a mythology gag. You're Going Down seemed to fit better.
Major/Minor: Anatomy/Sports Medicine
Equipment: Magic (she speaks a spell and it happens), several knives, a couple pistols, a revolver, brass knuckles, throwing knives, mace, a stun gun, capoeira, aikido, karate, jiujitsu, judo, kickboxing
Hobby: assassinations Collecting on debts owed to a certain family of respectable individuals with a reasonable amount of interest attached, MMA, firearms, military history
Blood Type (not important here; it's just a thing in Japan): AB+
Background with Kiyoshi, if applicable: Three years ago, an adopted Yakuza heiress faced off against some random dude named Fujita Kiyoshi in the finals of a martial arts tournament. The fight lasted several pulse-pounding minutes before being called by the referees, who awarded the victory to Kiyoshi on a technicality, their pride unwilling to allow them to let some half-blooded foreign girl win the tournament, even if she was the adopted daughter of a local Yakuza boss, Fusui Sora. Since that day, Tenshi has dedicated her life to beating Kiyoshi down and showing him that his victory was unearned and she is his better.
Any additional information: Genderswapped AU of an assassin I played a few years ago.

Character Name: Erika Hitorā
Age (Must be 18+): 19
Archetype: Not entirely sure, possibly tsundere.
Theme Song: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8r-ZBfpauY4
Major/Minor: Theology/History
Equipment: Katana, wakizashi, swastika-shaped shuriken, Luger P08, eyepatch, cross necklace. Uses a kamikaze hachimaki at times, often during training sessions.
Hobby: Martial arts, movies, watching sports, reading, painting, being out in the wild.
Blood Type (not important here; it's just a thing in Japan): A
Background with Kiyoshi, if applicable: She's seen him in school, and observed him from afar, but they haven't interacted much yet.
Any additional information: After WWII, Josef Mengele started a project in to clone Adolf Hitler in a lab somewhere in South America, and use the clones to restore the Third Reich. The clone babies were placed all over the world, and when the time was right, the Nazis would take the Hitlers away from their families, and use them for their own dark purpose. The first attempt, in the 60s, was a complete failure, but that didn't stop them from trying. Erika is a clone from recent years. She was raised by catholic warrior nuns in a monastery in Japan, and they taught her well. But one day, the "extraction" was due. Neo-Nazis attacked the monastery in an attempt to kidnap Erika, who now was in her teens. This was the first time she learned of her true origin, and she was of course shocked. She refused to go with the Nazis, and fought together with the nuns to stop them. Ultimately, the forces of good triumphed, but Erika lost one eye in the battle, and wears an eyepatch ever since that day.

She doesn't like Nazis, and refers to Hitler as "my stupid twin brother".

All right, doing what I can with this sucker. If I didn't answer everything, please TG me or something.

Yakumo Ren: Long backstory, tomboy/Genki Girl/reverse trap, looks good. Accepted. I'll make sure to add MonQuest and GameThang into the canon and mythos, among other fake games I have in mind.
My guess is that the ladies of each harem develop schizophrenia and/or have massive seizures. We'll see with the alter, I guess!

Fukuzawa Tohori: I don't see much direct potential, but I look forward most assuredly to behind-the-scenes work, as well as any ideas you have for her. Accepted.

Akuchi Marisu: Haruhi Suzumiya minus the meta powers, huh? Intriguing. And, yes, I did catch the "Mary Sue" pun, unless you didn't mean it. She's going to butt heads with everyone, and it will be glorious. Looking forward to "the laugh" and the laughs. Accepted.

Alter-chan: You might try to brush her up as more fleshed-out and respectable, but to me she'll always be our "OC pls do not steal" character. Still accepted.

Fusui Tenshi:
This is a garbage harem anime. There are a lot of good aspects of your character for other anime, but harem anime protagonists usually don't win by the skin of their teeth. They either lose by the skin of their teeth (i.e, technicality) or they exclusively win things. Pretty darn close to every encounter with Kiyoshi will end with him winning, at least in a garbage anime. Your character would definitely work better with shounen, but, since I'm not a egomaniac, your character is accepted. Please keep in mind, though, that this is supposed to be a harem anime.

Hitora Erika: A tsundere, very generally speaking, is a love interest who at first acts brash and distant to the protagonist but who, after she gets to know the protagonist, opens up to him and falls in love. There is a variant, the Type 2 tsundere, who is sporadically hostile to the protagonist even during the love phase of the anime. I was thinking that it would be hilarious for Erika to be a Type 2 tsundere and spontaneously have Hitlerian bursts of violence and shouting. That said, you probably don't want to play her that way, so the archetype that I think you would best fit would be a dandere: someone who's generally shy and distant, but who gets to know the protagonist and opens up. Please let me know if I'm off. Regardless, accepted.


I believe that's everyone. I will post the backstory of Kiyoshi in his character application later today. As for the IC first post, I plan to get it up tomorrow, since that will satisfy everyone who needed time to post. This will be the largest harem I've ever seen in anything anime-related, but, hopefully, we can rein things in and have smooth sailing.

Well, you're not off, I think she might be a mix of all three. Maybe a few rant scenes, but not ridiculously much.

Actually, the idea is that, but for the pride of the refs, he *would* have lost by the skin of his teeth (with the idea being they both were holding back their other styles, she accidentally used a kickboxing move that wasn't a karate move and that got her DQ'd.), but I can go with that, too. Also, I'm toying with the idea of her being demi rather than ace in this incarnation.

Speaking of harems, though, is there room for a ghost?

Yakumo Ren: Long backstory, tomboy/Genki Girl/reverse trap, looks good. Accepted. I'll make sure to add MonQuest and GameThang into the canon and mythos, among other fake games I have in mind.
My guess is that the ladies of each harem develop schizophrenia and/or have massive seizures. We'll see with the alter, I guess!

Fukuzawa Tohori: I don't see much direct potential, but I look forward most assuredly to behind-the-scenes work, as well as any ideas you have for her. Accepted.

Akuchi Marisu: Haruhi Suzumiya minus the meta powers, huh? Intriguing. And, yes, I did catch the "Mary Sue" pun, unless you didn't mean it. She's going to butt heads with everyone, and it will be glorious. Looking forward to "the laugh" and the laughs. Accepted.

Alter-chan: You might try to brush her up as more fleshed-out and respectable, but to me she'll always be our "OC pls do not steal" character. Still accepted.

Fusui Tenshi:
This is a garbage harem anime. There are a lot of good aspects of your character for other anime, but harem anime protagonists usually don't win by the skin of their teeth. They either lose by the skin of their teeth (i.e, technicality) or they exclusively win things. Pretty darn close to every encounter with Kiyoshi will end with him winning, at least in a garbage anime. Your character would definitely work better with shounen, but, since I'm not a egomaniac, your character is accepted. Please keep in mind, though, that this is supposed to be a harem anime.

Hitora Erika: A tsundere, very generally speaking, is a love interest who at first acts brash and distant to the protagonist but who, after she gets to know the protagonist, opens up to him and falls in love. There is a variant, the Type 2 tsundere, who is sporadically hostile to the protagonist even during the love phase of the anime. I was thinking that it would be hilarious for Erika to be a Type 2 tsundere and spontaneously have Hitlerian bursts of violence and shouting. That said, you probably don't want to play her that way, so the archetype that I think you would best fit would be a dandere: someone who's generally shy and distant, but who gets to know the protagonist and opens up. Please let me know if I'm off. Regardless, accepted.


I believe that's everyone. I will post the backstory of Kiyoshi in his character application later today. As for the IC first post, I plan to get it up tomorrow, since that will satisfy everyone who needed time to post. This will be the largest harem I've ever seen in anything anime-related, but, hopefully, we can rein things in and have smooth sailing.

Praise Helix!

Character Name: Hayashihara Bara
Age (Must be 18+): 840/Appears 18
Archetype: Ghost, Himedere, will not willingly talk about how or why she died, prankster
Theme Song: This
Major/Minor: Being dead/haunting a school
Equipment: She's a ghost, yo. Also, a bow and some arrows, but, other than that, just whatever's lying around. And curses.
Hobby: Archery, tea ceremony, listening to gossip, being dead, occasional pranks when she's been woken up, curses
Blood Type (not important here; it's just a thing in Japan): Royal
Background with Kiyoshi, if applicable: Roughly (give or take a few decades) every 100 years, someone in Kiyoshi's father's family line is born with a power like Kiyoshi's. 843 years ago, it was a boy who would go on to become a samurai. One admired by a certain noble lady. Every such person is destined to live in or near the town the school is built in, and, every time that someone has been on the grounds of the school, that person, boy or girl, has awoken her. Kiyoshi is her latest awakener, and has the (mis)fortune of looking exactly like her samurai.
Any additional information: She died of embarrassment from her crush seeing her in an undignified position that shall not be elaborated on. No, this isn't a teaser, it's a line in the sand.

Haruhi Suzumiya, the protagonist from "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya," is a high school girl who sets out to gain massive power through unconventional means, and she creates a high school club to this end.

The twist is that she already had reality-bending powers, and that the students in the club had already known about them, and in fact joined the club to stop her. Your character does not seem to possess said reality-warping powers.

Hi, folks.

I ran an idea for a dormitory passed Zjaum, our OP, and he said it was okay, but he had another idea for the dorm where Kiyoshi would be living. That said, Zjaum suggested that it could be a dorm close by.

Here's a brief notion...

The Kyōki Dormitory.

Tensai Josei stood with the other students that were moving into the new dormitory. Many of the older dorms had been destroyed by an upperclassman's accelerated-biological-mutation-by-radiologically-targeted-genes experiment on what was once a gecko. So, now, the students were gathered for orientation.

The Faculty Dorm Mistress, Mrs. Baishunpu imparted to the students that there was absolutely no truth to the rumors that their dorm had been built on the site of the laboratory of a mad scientist whose spirit roamed the grounds looking for unwitting victims to experiment on with friends from a demonic coven. It was an old tale that had been fabricated at a drunken party of mad scientists and demon worshippers and there wasn't a shred of truth to that story at all. So, don't worry about it.

This denial greatly set Josei's mind at ease.


Anyone interested in having their character in the Insanity Dorm?
