I see both points. It does seem to come RKO right the fuck outta nowhere! With the sudden promotion and all. And all things considered, her character is devilishly unsuiting of a good teacher. Teacher-student romances are frowned upon, to put it lightly, in most places, so this could hit a few sore spots. And you will have to keep in close collaboration with Windel and Spriggs to make sure that things don't get too out of hand, but I get the feeling that's been happening anyway.

However, what must be remembered is, this is an RP, a particularly unrealistic one at that. As long as it can be rationalised within RP limits (which it can), doesn't take away from good storylines (which it may, but remains to be seen) and keeps interest high (which is really up to everyone's interactions with the 'new teacher') I can't really see a problem with it.

@KoL I know Kol, but how long will her class go till people either stop showing up because they don't like being boss around by her in a boot camp-esque class or just stop listening to her and take their problems up with Saya about how the class is, see the little problems can become a big problem.

Drill sergeant like PE teachers are a classic archetype of fiction everywhere, not just anime, and even when they put their students to near death experiences it's not seen as anything wrong because they are just training their bodies which is their duty as PE teachers. Now, consider that we are on an assassination school and you'll see my point.

If you still don't see it, I guess that you force me to bring evidence #1:



I bet that Says wouldn't heed to crybabies too. "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen..." Another even better example would be Naruto's Chuunin (pretty sure I wrote it wrong, BTW) Exams, which actually kill the students during the procedures, so whatever is it that Itsuko does, it can't be wrong.

If this can happen for the sake of comedy, I don't see why I would be in the wrong.

Let's put this discussion in a better light. You guys can try to pointing my failures and question my logic as many times as you want, but I'll bring in a bible's wroth of example to prove that Itsuko is a valid teacher as long as this is an anime inspired RP (which it's). So...

Can we stop it before I'm forced to dig even more references?

@KoL

Well KoL we're not saying it's not anime inspired, hell I was there when we conspired to do this, hell me and windel joke around about you not finishing AnR, so I know it's an anime inspired rp.

and I know Anime teachers can be funny as hell some times just look at Akiro Migsugi, shit I probably butchered his name, he was funny to me even though he was a teacher, but what I am saying is that Itsuko doesn't seem like the type, P.E teacher or other wise. You know what I'm just not even gonna fucking go on any more.

Seeing as we don't really have an example of Itsuko as a teacher, it's hard to say exactly how she'll do. But regardless of both arguments, I think it's best to keep in mind that it is a school for assassins and if she can't do her job properly by teaching all of the students she's assigned, not just the one's she's in a flirtatious relationship with, then she likely won't be a teacher for long.

You're actually right, but just as you said, there has not been an example of Itsuko as a teacher yet, since classes (which hers up to now is the only one that seems to matter, RPwise) begin on the next day, expect it to come soon enough.

Anyway, since I'm also craving to use her in a fight, I came up with the perfect plan. Anyone who can beat Itsuko in a fight (terms will be explained later) won't have to attend her classes for the rest of the semester, 'cause if you can beat your teacher, it means that she has nothing more to teach you.

Just you all don't go thinking that it's easy to defeat her (she's like the goddamn Batman, FYI). Accepting her challenge wont be mandatory too, you can chose to fight or take classes in whatever way suits you all best.

@KoL

Oh, KoL-san, you misunderstand me! I'm trying to say I understand where Spriggs concerns come from. And trust me, I would be very firmly on his side if I hadn't RPed with you in the past.

But I get the sense that you are playing this for laughs rather than for vanity and past experience tells me you do know how to work it. So in short - go for it. I trust you because it's you.

But also bear in mind this could be disasterous if you don't play it right. It's one thing taking a wrong turn, but quite another to dig a pit without a ladder.
I know you can play it right, Lo. Don't prove me wrong.

Remember: We will be watching.

Just a heads up everyone. I'll be moving us along this coming Friday. That gives you all at least a day to finish up for the IC's first school day.

Windel you need some help ? Me and KoL are you Co-gms, it's not just your jobe to move the rp forwards it's ours too, if you need any help feel free to ask me, KoL's busy right now and for a while, Just think of me as your Kazuhira to your Big Boss, I'll be your second and help you if anything needs to be done.

@Spriggs27

Your argument has been noted and would be pretty valid anywhere else, though I have to inform you that we are on animeland (superpowers should be good indicative of that, I think) on this RP, thus, you're wrong.

Itsuko: "You blew that train on your own. Don't look at me."

Edit:

God damn it! I can't believe my luck. I stopped thinking about RP to do an assignment and then when I'm about to finish and ready to go back to RPing a power outage happens.

Just my luck... just my luck.

@KoL My sympathies. I hope that it's all good now (I actually tend to look forward to reading your posts) :3

@McFazzer

It's, thank you. I'm writing a post for here just now, in fact. It'll probably be up in an hour at most.

The power came back while ago, but just like I said over the Chasers OOC, I was watching an anime like an addict for the previous 3 hours, that's why I haven't posted yet.

Can't wait to bring in Zeph tomorrow. Pretty hyped, but I'm gonna sate said hype by catching up in the OOC. Only most of the first day of school has transpired, right?

@WaddleDaisy

I liked your idea of adding a portrait to the post, so I did the same.

@KoL Yeah, I just find it more appealing to the eyes for me c:

It is It is. I also digged it a lot when I first saw it and still do. Might be planning to do the same if you don't mind.

They look neat, but I'm not too particularly keen on them.

To each their own, I guess.

@liferusher

The search for a better format never ends, at least for me it doesn't.

Whenever I see something that strikes my tastes, I incorporate it, as long as the person I got it from doesn't cares.

Yeah I'm right with you on that one, as long as it benefits everyone and doesn't really cause trouble it's good

@liferusher

Well I can't wait to see it, * Opens a box with a dummy of KoL inside of it.* Why don't you and KoL discuss more of it inside of....The crate.
