why
Okay guys prepare for pain. I know I am. I am starting this at 1:30 PM, let's see how many hours it takes me of starting and stopping to actually fill out this whole thing baw.
PLAYER STATS MEME, WHY AM I EVEN DOING THIS oh right because I do want a updated record of this sure
ftr this is almost certainly going to be truncated a bit because lol percentages no, and also I don't keep good records of when I drop people, so I never know how long I played anyone. Whups.
Hasegawa Chisame from Mahou Sensei Negima! (number1idol)
App Percentage: 93.8%
Total Comments: 25,514
Reason For Dropping: Okay I know I didn't do the "amount of time played" thing there because like I said, I tend not to make a note of when I drop anyone; maybe someday I'll actually go through all my journals and do that for future reference. BUT I played Chisame for . . . god, four years? Five? I dropped her right around one of her anniversaries, iirc, probably her fourth. I apped her on May 31, 2005. That's a long-ass time. I just wasn't playing her that much anymore and yeah. It had been so long, and Chizuru was ready to drop too.
Select Option 3? I've considered reapping her, ngl. Basically the only reason I haven't is because I'm like, OH, 100 chapters behind on Negima, and they're important chapters to her. If I ever sit down and entirely reread the whole series and catch up, it's possible it will happen; on the other hand, knowing me, I'd end up apping someone else from it. I LOVE THAT SERIES TOO DAMN MUCH, ME NOT READING IT IS LIKE SELF-PRESERVATION.
Sasaki Makie from Mahou Sensei Negima! (ribbon_dance)
App Percentage: 89.7%
Total Comments: 2,152
Reason For Dropping: I burned out on her fast. WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW is that those 2,000+ comments all happened within a space of . . . I think less than two months? I know I didn't keep her more than that, because I remember realizing that years later and going "Holy shit, how did I play her that much in that time?" She still feels like a character I did a lot with even though she's actually one of the characters I've kept in the game for the shortest time period, ever. AH, 'TWAS A DIFFERENT GAME BACK THEN.
Select Option 3? I won't ever reapp her, but someone should, because she got seriously awesome in canon in this latest arc. Hey guys hey guys let's start a Negima cast again!!!
Sohma Shigure from Fruits Basket (doubledogdaring)
App Percentage: 92.5%
Total Comments: 1,038
Reason For Dropping: I HATED PLAYING HIM SO MUCH AHHH I was so nervous ALL THE TIME because he's a complicated character and I was a new roleplayer and wasn't skilled enough to handle him, at all. It used to take me like half an hour to write a two sentence response because I'd second guess myself so much. Not that I hate everything I did with him but. Yeah.
Select Option 3? I LIKE TO FORGET I EVER PLAYED HIM, AND I THINK MOST OF THE GAME HAS AT THIS POINT ANYWAY.
Evangeline A.K. McDowell from Mahou Sensei Negima! (bloodtwosugars)
App Percentage: 90%
Total Comments: 5,654
Reason For Dropping: At this point I kind of forget. She felt played out, I guess, and I wasn't active with her anymore. ALSO at this point we probably still had a character limit, ha ha. Once upon a time, we did, and I know some of my earlier drops were because I wanted to app someone new and needed to get rid of someone in order to do so. I forget, though, when I dropped Eva. I was happy with how I dropped her, actually; I still felt good with her, like I'd done a lot of good things and it was just her time while she was still strong.
Select Option 3? Along with Chisame, she's the other one I consider reapping from Negima from time to time. At one time I wanted to, but we had another interested player; that didn't happen, but then we had freshmeat interested; that didn't happen either! I was fine with letting someone else app her since my track record with reapps is often not great, and I wanted to play off of her, but yeah. SOMEONE SHOULD APP HER BEFORE I REAPP HER then I will app Chachamaru for you ahhhh Negima
Kagurazaka Asuna from Mahou Sensei Negima! (baka_chikara)
App Percentage: 94.1%
Total Comments: 1,512
Reason For Dropping: IIRC, which is hard for me in my old age, I dropped her because she overlapped too much with Chisame and so I didn't play her enough. I am pretty sure I played three Negima characters at this time and I LOVED ASUNA A TON but at that point Asuna and Chisame were both normal tsundere harem girls and Chisame had a ton of CR and Asuna didn't, so I never played her, and I dropped her. Probably to app someone else.
Select Option 3? THEN I REAPPED HER OH NO
Otohime Mutsumi from Love Hina (melon_princess)
App Percentage: 96%
Total Comments: 965
Reason For Dropping: She's very one-note, and I got sick of that. Also, I have problems playing characters with entirely opaque thought processes. In the series Akamatsu doesn't ever hint at what she's really thinking. So she's both simple enough to get boring and complex enough to be difficult, and even though I liked what I'd done with her, I didn't want to do any more.
Select Option 3? First of my apps to appear in the SHINY NEW CFUV COMM!
Takino Tomo from Azumanga Daioh (the_wildcat)
App Percentage: 89.3%
Total Comments: 85,979
Reason For Dropping: DEVIT KILLED HER. Okay, not really. But she was done being my primary and had been for months. I'd played her for two years and done a WHOLE LOT with her and didn't feel like I'd done anything new in some time, nor would I ever. IIRC I dropped her in Juuuuune or so? And I'd been planning it since January, so yeah. I just lost the drive and I'd accomplished everything I wanted to with her.
Select Option 3? I think her first app (one of my bottom five percentages) was infinitely better than my reapp, which got 100%.
Chao Lingshen from Mahou Sensei Negima! (elemntsinharmny)
App Percentage: 89.5%
Total Comments: 308
Reason For Dropping: I'VE TOLD THIS STORY. THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER APP ASSUMING CANON WILL GIVE YOU BACKSTORY SOON. I apped her in the middle of an arc, expecting to learn her motivations within a few chapters, but then the manga took a detour and it took like another year for that to happen. I played her for a few hundred comments but didn't have the canon to know what I was doing, and then dropped her.
Select Option 3? ONLY TO PICK HER UP AGAIN LATER WHEN I COULD!
Greed from Fullmetal Alchemist (itsmydesire)
App Percentage: 95.7%
Total Comments: 4,317
Reason For Dropping: UH I felt a little shaky on him; I loved him a lot (I am pretty sure he got my fastest start of any character I ever apped), but at the time I didn't "get" the homunculi enough, especially since canon was doing things with his reincarnation, and I was having trouble balancing his homunculusness with his sometimes-niceness, and also I was bad at playing a toppy flirtatious male. But god I loved him.
Select Option 3? I will never reapp him (because my heart belongs to Envy), but if I'd apped him more recently, like within the past year, he'd be a character who'd stick with me for a long time.
Uehara Miyako from Pani Poni Dash! (anxiousdreams)
App Percentage: 95.8%
Total Comments: 1,760
Reason For Dropping: She was too angry! It was very high-energy for me to be mad ALL THE TIME. At the time my lineup didn't allow for it. Later I apped Devit and learned that I can in fact play that, but not when I also have characters like Tomo and Greed sucking up most of my energy.
Select Option 3? I really would love to app from this canon again someday but I'd feel weird doing so without reading the manga, only afaik the manga is not translated anywhere! At least it hadn't been last I checked. But this is one of those series where the anime was awesome sheer crack but the manga has SO MUCH MORE TO WORK WITH.
Kashiwagi Yuuma from Pani Poni Dash! (iwantubaby)
App Percentage: 88.9%
Total Comments: 1,657
Reason For Dropping: I am really bad at playing her type. It makes me sad because I love her, but! The fashionable, trendy type, I kind of suck at it. Plus she was really dependent on Yuuna and that was hard to organize. I LIKE HOW I SAY THIS EVEN THOUGH I PLAY DEVIT BUT IT'S DIFFERENT
Select Option 3? Later Desu and I apped them at Microcosm, which also sadly did not last. :(
Kagurazaka Asuna from Mahou Sensei Negima! (hisbiggestfan)
App Percentage: 93.4%
Total Comments: 4,762
Reason For Dropping: PRETTY MUCH THE SAME ISSUE AS BEFORE, minus the Chisame aspect of it. I love Asuna, she's one of my favorite female characters EVER EVER EVER, but a lot of times characters of that type get booted when my lineup gets too big because I just sort of--keep them around for when I want a nice normal girl! Which I like having, but then my lineup hits like 8 characters and I go OKAY I NEED TO DROP SOME and those are the ones who get the axe.
Select Option 3? UGH I MISS HER I won't reapp her BUT I DO MISS HER. STUPID NEGIMA!
Shirley Fennes from Tales of Legendia (moerines)
App Percentage: 87%
Total Comments: ~4000 total
Reason For Dropping: Her entire cast dropped. It wasn't that I couldn't have played her alone, but I didn't want to; I really wanted her and Senel to leave together just because it appealed to my sense of their story. She's pretty much the only character I've dropped while still wanting to play her.
Select Option 3? Which is why I reapped her later lol!!!
Asahina Mikuru from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (helloinjapan)
App Percentage: 91.1%
Total Comments: 2,789
Reason For Dropping: I don't . . . actually remember. IIRC most of her cast dropped . . . ? And I loved her but she got a bit tiring too, just the nervous energy of her.
Select Option 3? Like EVERYONE ELSE I PLAY EVER I've considered reapping her, but I wouldn't unless I read the novels.
Chao Lingshen from Mahou Sensei Negima! (shipsdontlie)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 2,062
Reason For Dropping: I'm bad at playing geniuses. :( I mean, I don't think I sucked at her, and she's still my favorite character in Negima, but it was hard at times to BS her incredible levels of intellect and cunning, especially since she does act dumb and because canon never did explain everything (yet).
Select Option 3? Chao is the character I've come CLOSEST to reapping (a third time) without actually doing it. I even told the cast I was doing it. IIRC, I couldn't make like 2-3 rounds in a row of apps due to life stuff and having apped just before then and then I think one of those was a counselor round, and by the time three or so rounds passed with me not doing it, I just never did. And then we lost the rest of the Negima cast. :( She is--of all the characters I've played she is possibly my pure favorite, not to play but just as a character, and I still come up with things for her to do sometimes, but I don't think it will ever happen again.
Miura Haru from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (mafiosobold)
App Percentage: 93.4%
Total Comments: 9,137
Reason For Dropping: I LIED ON SHIRLEY'S THINGIE; Haru is another character I dropped even though I still wanted to play her. But I couldn't keep up with our cast, at all. I would play her a ton in a week and then be sick of her and then I'd realize that all my playing had been with canonmates because there were so many of them and they were so active! And she wasn't getting any other CR! But I just didn't have the time or energy to do both that AND cast stuff. And I wasn't even keeping up with all of the cast stuff; I'd find out about some serious thing that had happened to my close CR like three weeks later. (Through my own fault, not theirs; I just wasn't around with her enough.) I got so overwhelmed that I had to let her go.
Select Option 3? I actually had no idea she'd almost hit 10K, wow. I LOVED HARU. If I apped a Reborn girl again though it'd be Kyoko.
Yamazaki Kaoru from Welcome to the NHK! (techromancey)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 2,240
Reason For Dropping: Ughhh I love Yamazaki forever. But he deserves to be a primary. There is SO MUCH to do with him. Seriously I think someone could take this character and make him fucking amazing. And I had too many characters and not enough time to do it, and I couldn't accept that.
Select Option 3? I've never considered reapping him UNTIL NOW OH NO (no). Also this was my first 100% app and I do think it was deserved; it's probably the best I've written.
Viper from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (step3profit)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 5,204
Reason For Dropping: . . . I forget. Oh man. This is the first one where I seriously forget. I imagine my lineup was huge and I needed to kick a few characters to stay sane. Also canon was being weird about hir and that was annoying. WE STILL DON'T KNOW HIR SEX OR GENDER. ANYWAY I LOVE YOU VIPER!!!
Select Option 3? Have very seriously considered reapping hir but I'd have to read Reborn again and the idea of that makes my eyes bleed.
Shiina Sakurako from Mahou Sensei Negima! (gamblerclub)
App Percentage: 96.6%
Total Comments: 1,987
Reason For Dropping: SEE YUUMA: I suck at this type. I mean, I had fun with her and I love her, but she just wasn't what I needed; I can do high-energy (see Tomo) but not of this type, the popular cheerleader normal girl type. I love normal girls but I like them more low-key, and I love hyper characters but I like them less normal. The combo didn't work for me.
Select Option 3? This is by far my most undeserved app percentage. Sakurako's is probably my least favorite app.
Shirley Fennes from Tales of Legendia (moerines)
App Percentage: 83%
Total Comments: ~4000 total
Reason For Dropping: This time I just sort of--felt like I didn't play her enough. Around this time, like with Viper, I had a lot of characters, too many to keep active. And some of them I loved and was good at, but I didn't PLAY them, and so they got dropped. Shirley was one of them.
Select Option 3? I was going to reapp her but then I apped her to Hometrail instead! For like, two weeks; after that I had to drop because this was while I was preparing to move, and the game was high-energy prose, and I was modding CFUD and the DGMDR and yeah. I had no time, which made me sad, because I had a fantastic Walter in Hometrail. THEN SHE GOT APPED HERE AND I GET TO PLAY WITH HER YAY! Her canon is my forevergame.
Devit from D.Gray-man (halfcocked)
App Percentage: 92.6%
Total Comments: 98,704
Reason For Apping: I'VE TOLD THIS STORY. tl;dr Aviy topped me into apping from DGM, wanted me to app Cross but I had a counselor lined up already, topped me into Devit, Rabi talked sense into me, I reread the chapters obsessively and fell utterly in love with him and did it anyway.
Select Option 3? He will hit 100,000 before his three-year anniversary (in April). I should be fair and point out that at least 1/4 to 1/3 of his comments originate from non-CFUD: the DR, D_M, OOC comments, and uh AUs lol. Tomo was played more in CFUD proper. But still, I will have to do something VERY special for him when he hits sextuple digits.
Keroro from Keroro Gunso (amphibiwin)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 229
Reason For Dropping: DEVIT KILLED HIM, for real this time; Keroro had been planned to be my new primary (I knew I was dropping Tomo) and then I got Devit in two months before I could app him. And I just never played him. There's also the fact that his canon is AMAZING and he's a complex character and I was worried about doing it wrong. But yeah mostly he was SUPPOSED to be my primary and then I had another, totally different one, and I couldn't adjust.
Select Option 3? I miss his canon, but yeah I will never app from it again. Need to catch up on it though!
Urashima Kanako from Love Hina (inn_cest)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 386
Reason For Dropping: Her type was too hard for me. She's very, very quiet and sullen and WEIRD and I adore reading her but I can't play her. :(
Select Option 3? GOD I MISS PLAYING FROM AN AKAMATSU SERIES
Hyuuga from 07-Ghost (swordsfor100aya)
App Percentage: 96.4%
Total Comments: 2,882
Reason For Dropping: This was complicated. I felt like I'd played myself into a corner with him, like I wasn't prepared to adapt him to the stuff that he was confronted with in camp. It's difficult to explain what exactly happened, but he got very tiring to play because it was hard to balance situations and threads properly and still feel IC without feeling like I was derailing others.
Select Option 3? If canon ever does what it might do with him, I very well might reapp him, unless someone beats me to it. :B P.S. this will take like two years to happen so
Rise Kujikawa from Persona 4 (adangerousgirl)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 2,159
Reason For Dropping: The same sort of deal as Asuna, Sakurako, etc. I have this problem with "normal" girls where I love them and I feel like I need one, but when my lineup is too much to handle, I ditch them because they tend to have less going on. I loved Rise and I loved her cast but I couldn't handle what was on my plate at the time.
Select Option 3? Writing her Christmas letter was so much fucking fun.
Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist (allyourface)
App Percentage: 95.1%
Total Comments: 1,400
Reason For Dropping: ENVY WAS HARD. I never felt like I was doing enough with hir in camp, and with hir you have to DO things because CR is . . . not really going to happen proper. I mean it will but not in the sense where you can take hir through some awesome arc of character growth! Not gonna happen! And I suck at plot stuff so that was that.
Select Option 3? When I reapped I reused the journal, which I often choose not to do. I've considered renaming it but people seem to really like this username, so!
Takino Tomo from Azumanga Daioh (semivictory)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 1,932
Reason For Dropping: I WAS DONE WITH HER. I reapped her as a gag troll character because I knew I couldn't develop her anymore, having done all that the first time, and then I just . . . was finished, I didn't need to have her anymore, and I let her go. NO REGRETS!
Select Option 3? I really seriously love her second icon set liek whoa.
Shuzen Cocoa from Rosario + Vampire (sisofakiller)
App Percentage: 98%
Total Comments: 1,443
Reason For Apping: Desu like . . . linked me a pic of the Rosario cast and I swear as soon as I saw her I was like THAT'S THE ONE I WILL APP! And I read it and sure enough I fell in love with her and had to have her.
Select Option 3? I need to do more with her and I've considered dropping her but I can't bring myself to do it. I just need to buckle down and play her more. I ADORE HER and I adore her canon. I should review!!!
Karin Koenig from Shadow Hearts: Covenant (hersonaspoiler)
App Percentage: 94.1%
Total Comments: 224
Reason For Dropping: I had the "normal woman" problem with her only it was ten times worse because SHE WAS A COUNSELOR. I am historically bad at keeping my counselors (see next entry!). I love her as a character but I was nervous and awkward playing her. ALSO uh I ship Nicolai/Karin which is also OOC for her AND TBH IT WAS HARD TO RECONCILE THE FACT THAT WHAT I WANTED TO DO WAS SOMETHING I COULDN'T REALLY DO WITHOUT SUCKING :'D
Select Option 3? HOTTEST CHARACTER I HAVE EVER PLAYED.
Remiel from Sandman/Lucifer (bettertoserve)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 224
Reason For Dropping: I love Remiel. I ADORE HIM SO MUCH. And I liked playing him but! I only liked playing him in very limited situations! Remiel's canon is DIFFICULT because we only ever see him doing very specific things, and they pretty much define his character, and to take him and put him into camp was a HUGE leap and it was just too hard to do, for me. It's like taking a character we only ever see as an unwilling dictator who is slowly going crazy and only interacts with angels and demons and shoving him into . . . a hilarious summer camp full of living human beings where he has nothing to do and no power?! I COULD NOT DO IT. It made me really sad because seriously, he's awesome. And I should have foreseen it but oh well.
Select Option 3? I like how he has the same comment count as Karin and is only five off from Keroro. When I fail hard at counselors THIS IS THE RANGE THEY FALL INTO I GUESS.
Iono Mito Archeline from Iono the Fanatics (lesbianjesus)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 364
Reason For Dropping: There are some serious limits to her CR, and they started getting to me quickly. First and foremost, she basically cannot interact with men. I mean she CAN but she's just very generic and polite and doesn't give a shit or want to get to know them; this is canon! She is NICE to them but she's not interested. And that was frustrating. Plus with the girls, I had fun, but I felt annoying at the same time and couldn't maintain it for long without being like GOD HOW MUCH AM I IRRITATING THIS PERSON. The thing is that Iono is a lot of fun to play off of specific types, and if the player is happy to be subjected to her, but there are so many other characters I just couldn't do anything with and that got too frustrating.
Select Option 3? OTHER HOTTEST CHARACTER I'VE EVER PLAYED.
Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist (allyourface)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 652
Reason For Apping: I missed Envy almost immediately after dropping hir. I just felt really sad not to have hir anymore. But I was like, NO, I had really good reasons for dropping hir, I need to remember that! . . . Then I said fuck it I want someone horrible (this was around when Road got in, ha ha) and I LOVE HIR AND MISS HER AND WHATEVER, I'M REAPPING.
Select Option 3? I still do have the same problems with Envy, and I need to work harder on reconciling those, but they're not as bad due to hir canon update and lack of most castmates. I can work with this!!! I need to play hir more but hnnngh not in any danger of dropping I love hir too muuuuch seriously every time I reread or rewatch canon I go AHHHHH.
I've played here HOW long? 2,035 days.
Overall Comment Count: oh Christ uh ~273,636 HOLY SHIT WHAT NO!
Average Comments Per Day: 134
Shortest Kept: pretty sure it was Makie!
Longest Kept: Chisame! I FORGET DATES OKAY
Most Played: Devit (98,704) or Tomo (85,979 with more of those in CFUD proper)
Least Played: Karin and Remiel (224)
Highest Percentage: Yamazaki, Viper, Keroro, Kanako, Tomo #2, Iono, Envy #2 (100%)
Lowest Percentage: Shirley #2 (83%)
Number of successful apps: 32/32
P.S. IT'S ALMOST 5 PM
PLAYER STATS MEME, WHY AM I EVEN DOING THIS oh right because I do want a updated record of this sure
ftr this is almost certainly going to be truncated a bit because lol percentages no, and also I don't keep good records of when I drop people, so I never know how long I played anyone. Whups.
Hasegawa Chisame from Mahou Sensei Negima! (number1idol)
App Percentage: 93.8%
Total Comments: 25,514
Reason For Dropping: Okay I know I didn't do the "amount of time played" thing there because like I said, I tend not to make a note of when I drop anyone; maybe someday I'll actually go through all my journals and do that for future reference. BUT I played Chisame for . . . god, four years? Five? I dropped her right around one of her anniversaries, iirc, probably her fourth. I apped her on May 31, 2005. That's a long-ass time. I just wasn't playing her that much anymore and yeah. It had been so long, and Chizuru was ready to drop too.
Select Option 3? I've considered reapping her, ngl. Basically the only reason I haven't is because I'm like, OH, 100 chapters behind on Negima, and they're important chapters to her. If I ever sit down and entirely reread the whole series and catch up, it's possible it will happen; on the other hand, knowing me, I'd end up apping someone else from it. I LOVE THAT SERIES TOO DAMN MUCH, ME NOT READING IT IS LIKE SELF-PRESERVATION.
Sasaki Makie from Mahou Sensei Negima! (ribbon_dance)
App Percentage: 89.7%
Total Comments: 2,152
Reason For Dropping: I burned out on her fast. WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW is that those 2,000+ comments all happened within a space of . . . I think less than two months? I know I didn't keep her more than that, because I remember realizing that years later and going "Holy shit, how did I play her that much in that time?" She still feels like a character I did a lot with even though she's actually one of the characters I've kept in the game for the shortest time period, ever. AH, 'TWAS A DIFFERENT GAME BACK THEN.
Select Option 3? I won't ever reapp her, but someone should, because she got seriously awesome in canon in this latest arc. Hey guys hey guys let's start a Negima cast again!!!
Sohma Shigure from Fruits Basket (doubledogdaring)
App Percentage: 92.5%
Total Comments: 1,038
Reason For Dropping: I HATED PLAYING HIM SO MUCH AHHH I was so nervous ALL THE TIME because he's a complicated character and I was a new roleplayer and wasn't skilled enough to handle him, at all. It used to take me like half an hour to write a two sentence response because I'd second guess myself so much. Not that I hate everything I did with him but. Yeah.
Select Option 3? I LIKE TO FORGET I EVER PLAYED HIM, AND I THINK MOST OF THE GAME HAS AT THIS POINT ANYWAY.
Evangeline A.K. McDowell from Mahou Sensei Negima! (bloodtwosugars)
App Percentage: 90%
Total Comments: 5,654
Reason For Dropping: At this point I kind of forget. She felt played out, I guess, and I wasn't active with her anymore. ALSO at this point we probably still had a character limit, ha ha. Once upon a time, we did, and I know some of my earlier drops were because I wanted to app someone new and needed to get rid of someone in order to do so. I forget, though, when I dropped Eva. I was happy with how I dropped her, actually; I still felt good with her, like I'd done a lot of good things and it was just her time while she was still strong.
Select Option 3? Along with Chisame, she's the other one I consider reapping from Negima from time to time. At one time I wanted to, but we had another interested player; that didn't happen, but then we had freshmeat interested; that didn't happen either! I was fine with letting someone else app her since my track record with reapps is often not great, and I wanted to play off of her, but yeah. SOMEONE SHOULD APP HER BEFORE I REAPP HER then I will app Chachamaru for you ahhhh Negima
Kagurazaka Asuna from Mahou Sensei Negima! (baka_chikara)
App Percentage: 94.1%
Total Comments: 1,512
Reason For Dropping: IIRC, which is hard for me in my old age, I dropped her because she overlapped too much with Chisame and so I didn't play her enough. I am pretty sure I played three Negima characters at this time and I LOVED ASUNA A TON but at that point Asuna and Chisame were both normal tsundere harem girls and Chisame had a ton of CR and Asuna didn't, so I never played her, and I dropped her. Probably to app someone else.
Select Option 3? THEN I REAPPED HER OH NO
Otohime Mutsumi from Love Hina (melon_princess)
App Percentage: 96%
Total Comments: 965
Reason For Dropping: She's very one-note, and I got sick of that. Also, I have problems playing characters with entirely opaque thought processes. In the series Akamatsu doesn't ever hint at what she's really thinking. So she's both simple enough to get boring and complex enough to be difficult, and even though I liked what I'd done with her, I didn't want to do any more.
Select Option 3? First of my apps to appear in the SHINY NEW CFUV COMM!
Takino Tomo from Azumanga Daioh (the_wildcat)

Reason For Dropping: UH I felt a little shaky on him; I loved him a lot (I am pretty sure he got my fastest start of any character I ever apped), but at the time I didn't "get" the homunculi enough, especially since canon was doing things with his reincarnation, and I was having trouble balancing his homunculusness with his sometimes-niceness, and also I was bad at playing a toppy flirtatious male. But god I loved him.
Select Option 3? I will never reapp him (because my heart belongs to Envy), but if I'd apped him more recently, like within the past year, he'd be a character who'd stick with me for a long time.
Uehara Miyako from Pani Poni Dash! (anxiousdreams)
App Percentage: 95.8%
Total Comments: 1,760
Reason For Dropping: She was too angry! It was very high-energy for me to be mad ALL THE TIME. At the time my lineup didn't allow for it. Later I apped Devit and learned that I can in fact play that, but not when I also have characters like Tomo and Greed sucking up most of my energy.
Select Option 3? I really would love to app from this canon again someday but I'd feel weird doing so without reading the manga, only afaik the manga is not translated anywhere! At least it hadn't been last I checked. But this is one of those series where the anime was awesome sheer crack but the manga has SO MUCH MORE TO WORK WITH.
Kashiwagi Yuuma from Pani Poni Dash! (iwantubaby)
App Percentage: 88.9%
Total Comments: 1,657
Reason For Dropping: I am really bad at playing her type. It makes me sad because I love her, but! The fashionable, trendy type, I kind of suck at it. Plus she was really dependent on Yuuna and that was hard to organize. I LIKE HOW I SAY THIS EVEN THOUGH I PLAY DEVIT BUT IT'S DIFFERENT
Select Option 3? Later Desu and I apped them at Microcosm, which also sadly did not last. :(
Kagurazaka Asuna from Mahou Sensei Negima! (hisbiggestfan)
App Percentage: 93.4%
Total Comments: 4,762
Reason For Dropping: PRETTY MUCH THE SAME ISSUE AS BEFORE, minus the Chisame aspect of it. I love Asuna, she's one of my favorite female characters EVER EVER EVER, but a lot of times characters of that type get booted when my lineup gets too big because I just sort of--keep them around for when I want a nice normal girl! Which I like having, but then my lineup hits like 8 characters and I go OKAY I NEED TO DROP SOME and those are the ones who get the axe.
Select Option 3? UGH I MISS HER I won't reapp her BUT I DO MISS HER. STUPID NEGIMA!
Shirley Fennes from Tales of Legendia (moerines)
App Percentage: 87%
Total Comments: ~4000 total
Reason For Dropping: Her entire cast dropped. It wasn't that I couldn't have played her alone, but I didn't want to; I really wanted her and Senel to leave together just because it appealed to my sense of their story. She's pretty much the only character I've dropped while still wanting to play her.
Select Option 3? Which is why I reapped her later lol!!!
Asahina Mikuru from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (helloinjapan)
App Percentage: 91.1%
Total Comments: 2,789
Reason For Dropping: I don't . . . actually remember. IIRC most of her cast dropped . . . ? And I loved her but she got a bit tiring too, just the nervous energy of her.
Select Option 3? Like EVERYONE ELSE I PLAY EVER I've considered reapping her, but I wouldn't unless I read the novels.
Chao Lingshen from Mahou Sensei Negima! (shipsdontlie)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 2,062
Reason For Dropping: I'm bad at playing geniuses. :( I mean, I don't think I sucked at her, and she's still my favorite character in Negima, but it was hard at times to BS her incredible levels of intellect and cunning, especially since she does act dumb and because canon never did explain everything (yet).
Select Option 3? Chao is the character I've come CLOSEST to reapping (a third time) without actually doing it. I even told the cast I was doing it. IIRC, I couldn't make like 2-3 rounds in a row of apps due to life stuff and having apped just before then and then I think one of those was a counselor round, and by the time three or so rounds passed with me not doing it, I just never did. And then we lost the rest of the Negima cast. :( She is--of all the characters I've played she is possibly my pure favorite, not to play but just as a character, and I still come up with things for her to do sometimes, but I don't think it will ever happen again.
Miura Haru from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (mafiosobold)
App Percentage: 93.4%
Total Comments: 9,137
Reason For Dropping: I LIED ON SHIRLEY'S THINGIE; Haru is another character I dropped even though I still wanted to play her. But I couldn't keep up with our cast, at all. I would play her a ton in a week and then be sick of her and then I'd realize that all my playing had been with canonmates because there were so many of them and they were so active! And she wasn't getting any other CR! But I just didn't have the time or energy to do both that AND cast stuff. And I wasn't even keeping up with all of the cast stuff; I'd find out about some serious thing that had happened to my close CR like three weeks later. (Through my own fault, not theirs; I just wasn't around with her enough.) I got so overwhelmed that I had to let her go.
Select Option 3? I actually had no idea she'd almost hit 10K, wow. I LOVED HARU. If I apped a Reborn girl again though it'd be Kyoko.
Yamazaki Kaoru from Welcome to the NHK! (techromancey)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 2,240
Reason For Dropping: Ughhh I love Yamazaki forever. But he deserves to be a primary. There is SO MUCH to do with him. Seriously I think someone could take this character and make him fucking amazing. And I had too many characters and not enough time to do it, and I couldn't accept that.
Select Option 3? I've never considered reapping him UNTIL NOW OH NO (no). Also this was my first 100% app and I do think it was deserved; it's probably the best I've written.
Viper from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! (step3profit)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 5,204
Reason For Dropping: . . . I forget. Oh man. This is the first one where I seriously forget. I imagine my lineup was huge and I needed to kick a few characters to stay sane. Also canon was being weird about hir and that was annoying. WE STILL DON'T KNOW HIR SEX OR GENDER. ANYWAY I LOVE YOU VIPER!!!
Select Option 3? Have very seriously considered reapping hir but I'd have to read Reborn again and the idea of that makes my eyes bleed.
Shiina Sakurako from Mahou Sensei Negima! (gamblerclub)
App Percentage: 96.6%
Total Comments: 1,987
Reason For Dropping: SEE YUUMA: I suck at this type. I mean, I had fun with her and I love her, but she just wasn't what I needed; I can do high-energy (see Tomo) but not of this type, the popular cheerleader normal girl type. I love normal girls but I like them more low-key, and I love hyper characters but I like them less normal. The combo didn't work for me.
Select Option 3? This is by far my most undeserved app percentage. Sakurako's is probably my least favorite app.
Shirley Fennes from Tales of Legendia (moerines)
App Percentage: 83%
Total Comments: ~4000 total
Reason For Dropping: This time I just sort of--felt like I didn't play her enough. Around this time, like with Viper, I had a lot of characters, too many to keep active. And some of them I loved and was good at, but I didn't PLAY them, and so they got dropped. Shirley was one of them.
Select Option 3? I was going to reapp her but then I apped her to Hometrail instead! For like, two weeks; after that I had to drop because this was while I was preparing to move, and the game was high-energy prose, and I was modding CFUD and the DGMDR and yeah. I had no time, which made me sad, because I had a fantastic Walter in Hometrail. THEN SHE GOT APPED HERE AND I GET TO PLAY WITH HER YAY! Her canon is my forevergame.
Devit from D.Gray-man (halfcocked)
App Percentage: 92.6%
Total Comments: 98,704
Reason For Apping: I'VE TOLD THIS STORY. tl;dr Aviy topped me into apping from DGM, wanted me to app Cross but I had a counselor lined up already, topped me into Devit, Rabi talked sense into me, I reread the chapters obsessively and fell utterly in love with him and did it anyway.
Select Option 3? He will hit 100,000 before his three-year anniversary (in April). I should be fair and point out that at least 1/4 to 1/3 of his comments originate from non-CFUD: the DR, D_M, OOC comments, and uh AUs lol. Tomo was played more in CFUD proper. But still, I will have to do something VERY special for him when he hits sextuple digits.
Keroro from Keroro Gunso (amphibiwin)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 229
Reason For Dropping: DEVIT KILLED HIM, for real this time; Keroro had been planned to be my new primary (I knew I was dropping Tomo) and then I got Devit in two months before I could app him. And I just never played him. There's also the fact that his canon is AMAZING and he's a complex character and I was worried about doing it wrong. But yeah mostly he was SUPPOSED to be my primary and then I had another, totally different one, and I couldn't adjust.
Select Option 3? I miss his canon, but yeah I will never app from it again. Need to catch up on it though!
Urashima Kanako from Love Hina (inn_cest)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 386
Reason For Dropping: Her type was too hard for me. She's very, very quiet and sullen and WEIRD and I adore reading her but I can't play her. :(
Select Option 3? GOD I MISS PLAYING FROM AN AKAMATSU SERIES
Hyuuga from 07-Ghost (swordsfor100aya)
App Percentage: 96.4%
Total Comments: 2,882
Reason For Dropping: This was complicated. I felt like I'd played myself into a corner with him, like I wasn't prepared to adapt him to the stuff that he was confronted with in camp. It's difficult to explain what exactly happened, but he got very tiring to play because it was hard to balance situations and threads properly and still feel IC without feeling like I was derailing others.
Select Option 3? If canon ever does what it might do with him, I very well might reapp him, unless someone beats me to it. :B P.S. this will take like two years to happen so
Rise Kujikawa from Persona 4 (adangerousgirl)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 2,159
Reason For Dropping: The same sort of deal as Asuna, Sakurako, etc. I have this problem with "normal" girls where I love them and I feel like I need one, but when my lineup is too much to handle, I ditch them because they tend to have less going on. I loved Rise and I loved her cast but I couldn't handle what was on my plate at the time.
Select Option 3? Writing her Christmas letter was so much fucking fun.
Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist (allyourface)
App Percentage: 95.1%
Total Comments: 1,400
Reason For Dropping: ENVY WAS HARD. I never felt like I was doing enough with hir in camp, and with hir you have to DO things because CR is . . . not really going to happen proper. I mean it will but not in the sense where you can take hir through some awesome arc of character growth! Not gonna happen! And I suck at plot stuff so that was that.
Select Option 3? When I reapped I reused the journal, which I often choose not to do. I've considered renaming it but people seem to really like this username, so!
Takino Tomo from Azumanga Daioh (semivictory)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 1,932
Reason For Dropping: I WAS DONE WITH HER. I reapped her as a gag troll character because I knew I couldn't develop her anymore, having done all that the first time, and then I just . . . was finished, I didn't need to have her anymore, and I let her go. NO REGRETS!
Select Option 3? I really seriously love her second icon set liek whoa.
Shuzen Cocoa from Rosario + Vampire (sisofakiller)
App Percentage: 98%
Total Comments: 1,443
Reason For Apping: Desu like . . . linked me a pic of the Rosario cast and I swear as soon as I saw her I was like THAT'S THE ONE I WILL APP! And I read it and sure enough I fell in love with her and had to have her.
Select Option 3? I need to do more with her and I've considered dropping her but I can't bring myself to do it. I just need to buckle down and play her more. I ADORE HER and I adore her canon. I should review!!!
Karin Koenig from Shadow Hearts: Covenant (hersonaspoiler)
App Percentage: 94.1%
Total Comments: 224
Reason For Dropping: I had the "normal woman" problem with her only it was ten times worse because SHE WAS A COUNSELOR. I am historically bad at keeping my counselors (see next entry!). I love her as a character but I was nervous and awkward playing her. ALSO uh I ship Nicolai/Karin which is also OOC for her AND TBH IT WAS HARD TO RECONCILE THE FACT THAT WHAT I WANTED TO DO WAS SOMETHING I COULDN'T REALLY DO WITHOUT SUCKING :'D
Select Option 3? HOTTEST CHARACTER I HAVE EVER PLAYED.
Remiel from Sandman/Lucifer (bettertoserve)
App Percentage: 98.1%
Total Comments: 224
Reason For Dropping: I love Remiel. I ADORE HIM SO MUCH. And I liked playing him but! I only liked playing him in very limited situations! Remiel's canon is DIFFICULT because we only ever see him doing very specific things, and they pretty much define his character, and to take him and put him into camp was a HUGE leap and it was just too hard to do, for me. It's like taking a character we only ever see as an unwilling dictator who is slowly going crazy and only interacts with angels and demons and shoving him into . . . a hilarious summer camp full of living human beings where he has nothing to do and no power?! I COULD NOT DO IT. It made me really sad because seriously, he's awesome. And I should have foreseen it but oh well.
Select Option 3? I like how he has the same comment count as Karin and is only five off from Keroro. When I fail hard at counselors THIS IS THE RANGE THEY FALL INTO I GUESS.
Iono Mito Archeline from Iono the Fanatics (lesbianjesus)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 364
Reason For Dropping: There are some serious limits to her CR, and they started getting to me quickly. First and foremost, she basically cannot interact with men. I mean she CAN but she's just very generic and polite and doesn't give a shit or want to get to know them; this is canon! She is NICE to them but she's not interested. And that was frustrating. Plus with the girls, I had fun, but I felt annoying at the same time and couldn't maintain it for long without being like GOD HOW MUCH AM I IRRITATING THIS PERSON. The thing is that Iono is a lot of fun to play off of specific types, and if the player is happy to be subjected to her, but there are so many other characters I just couldn't do anything with and that got too frustrating.
Select Option 3? OTHER HOTTEST CHARACTER I'VE EVER PLAYED.
Envy from Fullmetal Alchemist (allyourface)
App Percentage: 100%
Total Comments: 652
Reason For Apping: I missed Envy almost immediately after dropping hir. I just felt really sad not to have hir anymore. But I was like, NO, I had really good reasons for dropping hir, I need to remember that! . . . Then I said fuck it I want someone horrible (this was around when Road got in, ha ha) and I LOVE HIR AND MISS HER AND WHATEVER, I'M REAPPING.
Select Option 3? I still do have the same problems with Envy, and I need to work harder on reconciling those, but they're not as bad due to hir canon update and lack of most castmates. I can work with this!!! I need to play hir more but hnnngh not in any danger of dropping I love hir too muuuuch seriously every time I reread or rewatch canon I go AHHHHH.
I've played here HOW long? 2,035 days.
