Introduction

Hello, I am Sayu; which is a shortened version of Sayunnaise. I joined here on a very enthusiastic recommendation from BloodCri (the amount of energy that person can have is frightening sometimes).

I come from a rather mixed background of practice, I've got skills all over the place such as drawing art etc, but I've been roleplaying "professionally" for about 5 years now, everything before that is mostly just solo creative writing. I'm currently the head admin at a Touhou based Roleplaying Website called Gensoukyou Eastern Story (this isn't a plug I'm just trying to show that I'm not unfamiliar to a role of responsibility in a role playing environment!)

I've chosen to play as Saitama from the One-Punch Man Webcomic/Manga/Anime. If you're familiar with it, you might know why I decided to talk about responsibility first! The series itself is an action-comedy hybrid featuring a rather average looking main character called Saitama. He's a super hero who does it for fun. What makes him special however is that he is the strongest super hero, capable of taking out anyone in just one punch (Hence the One-Punch Man name. Although that's not his officially designated super hero name - that's "Caped Baldy").

Saitama. He does it for fun.

What makes One-Punch Man unique is it's a rather lighthearted comedy which doesn't take itself too seriously. 99% of the manga is an artistic masterpiece, except for when Saitama is involved; he's normally gets drawn very quickly with a simple outline, an egg shaped head, and a blank expression - which is often in a stark contrast to other characters.

Saitama drawn simple.

However, don't let his harmless and cartoony appearance fool you. This guy is a complete monster capable of performing beyond inhuman feats of strength that leave most people who witness his abilities first hand completely stunned. His strength limit has never been referenced, with him being able to perform stuff such as: punch people in to orbit in milliseconds, jump from the moon to the earth instantly (while sending multiple shock waves across the entire moon), think and move several times faster than the speed of light, punch the sky cleanly in two while simultaneously deflecting a planet-busting tier laser attack without a scratch... I'm sure you get the idea... he can't fly though. His abilities are very human.

But despite all this... Saitama isn't a scary character. If anything, he's just there for comedic effect. Unless you're a monster trying to hurt people, he will never fight you without good reason. Despite being (so far) the most powerful being in his Universe, only a very small percentage of people actually know of this. Most people just treat him as a lucky, low-tier wannabe hero with very fortunate timings.

Anyways, the point I'm trying to make is that despite him being ridiculously overpowered; he's just there for comic relief. He's kind of lazy, and the only time he shows off his power is when he really needs to. Even when someone's dancing around in front of him, screaming at him to fight them; he'll just tell them they're bothering him and he only wants to get to the shop in time in order to buy cheap food while it's still on sale before going home to his low rent one-bedroom apartment.
I want to capture his lighthearted style and generally have a good time, maybe even playing more of an NPC role at times as opposed to being a bit of a bigger player.

Beyond that, I currently don't have any more plans to play as a characters. I have quite a large list of non-specific Original Characters that I might consider bringing over - some of them perhaps as antagonists. Overall, I hope I can have a good time here, and get a few people laughing while I'm at it!

If you absolutely need to contact me ASAP, then by far the easiest way to do so would be to go follow this link, join the #General channel, and then ask for Sayuno: http://webchat.gensoukyoueasternstory.net/

Other than that, I don't have much else to say~

Yes, but I assume the manga has more story than what the anime has covered so far? As well as the original comic :3
