Not reserving anything, but I can write for the following if needed.

Yūdachi (Kantai Collection)
Ainz Ooal Gown (Overlord)
Adlet Mayer (Rokka no Yūsha)

As Toady says, so far, seasonal tournament contestants have never been featured on the main site (before returning as regulars, at least). As for the whys behind this: a) avoid clutter b) focus efforts where necessary c) make sure we can maintain a fair "all characters or none" policy for groups of ...

Regarding the number of profiles:

It has been decided to do the top 64 characters in both divisions.

There is some slight possibility of stretching it to 128 if the above is easily accomplished, but for now top 64 is the official stance. (Will add this information to the OP.)

Momento10 wrote:Speaking of information, is it still undecided whether we are going to write for just the Top 64 or all 128 girls and guys?

Discussing this right now.

And I will update the OP with the google documents link tomorrow (or today, depending on your timezone.)

Do you guys know Cytrus has been doing this since the beginning of 2008? Do you guys know Cytrus has been doing this since the beginning of 2008? He needs an appreciation thread. A large part of the writing work in 2008 was done by Psieye, while in recent years Momento10 has been responsible for th...

@Momo I can, no worry.

When this week ends, I'll have a life outside work for some time, so I can do ISML stuff properly. Until then, I ask for your patience .

As a rule, battlefield is not a place for fun and joyness. At situation, when each second could be dangerous, any combatant should be concentrated. But some peoples could be positive at any time. This applies to Kongō too. The eldest of four Kongō Class sisters born in England and came to Japan whe...

While we aren't all that strict about the profiles, A few ideas: 1. Try to stay away from 1st and 2nd person pronouns (I, me, you) and their possesives (my, your, our) because they make the profile sound too casual 2. Instead of describing how she looks, weave that into describing more of her charac...

Hey, Can I directly put my profiles on the Google Docs? That's what I did, but do we want to correct my English mistakes on the forums first? Also, I'll try to write for Nao. Yes, feel free to upload everything to the docs, draft or not. Because we can put all existent bios/drafts in one place, it'...

Okay, keeping things short right now. 1) I will consult with the staff if we're really aiming for 256 character profiles, or whether a smaller part of the characters will be highlighted. (There are issues other than bios involved, after all.) 2) There will not be an official (or semi-official) list ...

Thanks everyone for your support and participation.

I'm at work right now, but I'll get back to this thread within the next ten hours and propose some solutions.

For ISML 2016 It has been decided to prepare profiles for the top 64 characters in both divisions. There is some slight possibility of stretching it to 128 if the above is easily accomplished, but for now top 64 is the official stance. Many profiles have already been written preemptively. If you wis...

Bad singing is allowed, right???

Character biographies for 2015 have been successfully finished! This year we dished out a total of 60 new bios, coming close to the busiest year of 64 new bios that was the first year of ISML. Whoever came up with the idea of the male division should be executed. I wasn't sure if we can make it on t...

Btw, I'm done with 41 of the new profiles, so I should be contacting the people still waiting for edits soon enough.

^Yato and Levi got posted on this page already, so we're waiting for Shiba Tatsuya and reserved characters.

First timer here. Sorry if this lacking so much "The country? The skies? You can have them. I’m busy just protecting what’s right in front of me." Beastly appearance, his diabolical aura, his masterful swordplay resembles that of a White Demon on the battlefield. Sakata Gintoki or known as Shiroyas...

^How early into the series is this revealed?
We try to avoid unnecessary spoilers as far as possible, but some reveals are central to a given character and cannot be avoided.

With less than three weeks to go, I ask for as many hands as possible to help out write down the remainder of what is left for our character bios. The following is a list of characters that are still in need of a write-up: Shiba Miyuki (Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei) - Is Jiharo still reserving this? Arc...
