That's just a small smidge of instructors in the school, but these heroes in particular will appear in the earlier arcs of the story, alongside local heroes in the Hokkaido area.

This post will be continually updated as more questions get answered!

The entrance exams started with a written application that had to make merit of hero knowledge, Japanese language accreditation, and a lot of other hero-oriented questions and writing opts. Once this was sufficiently passed you move on to being invited to Sapporo and IA’s testing facility to utilize your quirk before a board examination and then rigorous interviews to make sure your character fits the notion of Ishin Academy. As one could tell, this is quite different than the public spectacle of examinations found in academies like Yuuei Academy (otherwise known as U.A. High) where aspiring students compete in media-oriented exhibitions, and is one reason why in recent years Ishin has found itself bitter with the exponential increase of “American-style” examinations within their country. Ishin detests cavalier attitudes and unneeded excess that only serves to diminish the prestige of what a Japanese hero is and should be.

Ishin Academy’s dress code is conservative and accommodative of the weather of the Hokkaido region of Japan, with mandatory knee-length blue-gray skirts and stockings in tandem with a simplistic sailor fuku for girls, and blue-gray gakurans and pants for boys. Black penny loafers are the mandatory footwear, though in the winter season it is accented with boots. There is absolutely no allowance of creativity in the dress code. In terms of field exhibitions and training exercises, universal Ishin Academy jumpsuits will be provided. It is not the school’s prerogative to give payouts to superhero development firms so students can design their own outfits as a student may develop their heroic identity on their own time and not with the school’s resources. However, a request form may be filled out for modifications and armament additions to the provided jumpsuits.

Ishin Academy is one of the finest schools in Japan for hero development and in terms of the international scale cracks the top twenty. However due to their presence on an international scale, Ishin defines itself as distinctly Japanese and has no presence overseas. There are no “sister schools” in the United States or Europe that associate with Ishin and the administrative body would like to keep it this way. Students who seek out to apply to Ishin, otherwise known as “Gaijin” are outsiders that have to be vetted extremely to be allowed to apply at all. Not only do foreign students need to have exceptional Japanese, they also need to meet even higher standards than Japanese applicants. It’s unfair, but nobody ever said Ishin was fair.

Most students accepted to Ishin Academy are offered a secure residence on academy grounds in the Sapporo area. As Ishin accepts all manners of Japanese students, and even on some special occasions, foreign visas it can be seen as a special if obtuse move from one’s home and into the cold environment of Ishin. Before the establishment of the dormitories around ten years ago students had no residence options and foreign students needed to get their own living arrangements in nearby Sapporo without the school’s help. The long train rides (as students had to ride the bullet train all the way to Hakodate and switch tracks to Sapporo) are now a thing of the past, though many students still are given a free of charge train pass by the administration so there are no problems visiting family and friends as long as this is done on their time and not the academy’s.

I gotta get to work.

@DruSM157@Inkarnate I read over your character sheets, and I noticed that the format/writing was more dependant on the personality of your characters, instead of a focus on their backstory. Would you like us to continue that trend when we make our own character-sheet formats?

I think everyone following the character sheet template is ideal.

I'd like to reserve a spot if you don't mind, will be putting a character sheet up soon :)

I can’t speak for Drew, but all applications in my experience [with doing RPs with him] are decided on their merits – promising spots would not be fair to any applicants so all I tend to do is promise I will judge each sheet fairly and openly.

Alright, here's my character! Been working on him for three hours ^^'
Sorry if the quirk is a bit confusing, I wanted to go for a unique ability that goes all in on the quirkiness of the quirks.

Well anyways, off to bed! I'll see whatever feedback you have in the morning.

Hm, I like the character, but I still think he could be better. I'll take any and all criticism in stride. Even if I'm not accepted, I just wanna make him better. Hyped AF! :D

I shouldn't apply to this but I know I'll end up doing it.

I'm a sucker for superheroes and Boku no Hero. I guess I'll be making a character application.

Goodness there's a lot of bites on this one. I look forward to perusing all of these characters!

Definitely interested! Expect a character sheet in a little bit. ^_^

Applications should be posted in the OOC

@DangDude - I think you made an innocent mistake there, bud.

Edit: I've already contacted a staff member to hide it and in case you don't have a copy on-hand, I've saved it below. No harm, no foul. Still -- the OOC is for accepted characters 'lest everyone forgets.

Chihiro stands at 5’2”, her long, blonde hair flowing down to her mid-back and her eyes a vidbrant jade color. Because of the way she carries herself, she is known to have a very mature appearance, though she is one to quickly lose her temper. Desspite this falw of hers, however, she does a very good job of presenting herself as a prim and proper student, scoring very well in her entrance exams to Ishin Academy. Though it was not necessarily her father’s first choice for his daughter to attend a “superhero” school, she is still seen as the pride and joy of the Kazehana family. And as such, Chihiro will do whatever it takes to keep her family name held in such honor.

Gust - As the name implies, Chihiro is capable of sending forth gusts of wind at will, whether it be to push back a foe or propel herself into the air. On very rare occasions, due to intense concentration, she has been able to wield wind to her will and control it freely, not merely in sudden bursts. However, she has only been able to hold it for mere moments, and this is hardly something she could pull off in the heat of battel. So, for the time being, she is only capable of sending off sudden bursts. This should not be taken lightly, however, for those bursts can pack a real punch.

Chihiro is a very tactical and cunning young woman, something that she uses to her advantage. Though her quirk is one she has yet to truly master, it is her bright mind that is the real weapon that should be feared. This is something that she does not soley use in combat, however. She has been known to be a very persuasive person, and learning at a young age that deceiving a person can be easier than you think.

Chihiro is to be the heir to the Kazehana fortune and business once her father is no longer fit to do so. However, regardless of this fact, Chihiro insisted in attending the superhero academy against her father’s wishes. She was not fully sure why it was she wanted to join the academy herself, though she felt that there was something more she could do with her abilities that running a business simply would not let her achieve.

Oops, I'm sorry! I misread.

Alright! I'm glad to see the interest! It's not my rp, but I've joined games that never got off the ground cause of no interest! So let's go! I'm excited to see other player's characters!

Yeah, I'm excited to jump in and start playing :D

As long as the fires of interest burn and people make creative ideas in an anime universe, there will be hype and there will be fun.
