| Kanda International University |
Our beginning setting will take place in the fictional university. Kanda International is well regarded as the top 9th international school globally. So it's one the best, but not the best. All students will be required to have an intermediate understanding of English as it spoken throughout campus. First years are housed on campus in dorms, encouraging those to mingle with their peers. From their second year, students are encouraged to have a level of independence and will be tasked with finding housing outside the institution. Students are also encouraged to get part-time jobs once in their third and fourth years, though they give exceptions to some second years, depending on the financial situation.
Speaking of finances, it is costly to attend KIU so many who attend come from some form of wealth but there are some who get by through loans and grants. Scholarships are not given out or accepted. Students can work on campus or off campus though most pay their way through their families, rather than foot the bill or even part of it, themselves. KIU offers small class sizes as well as cutting edge technology integrated into the campus and classrooms.
Right outside the school gates is the Kanda Station, a bustling train station that offers several shops and cafes to people coming and going. Kanda Station is beside the Kanda River and many commuters enjoy the nature that surrounds them among the contrast of the grey high rise buildings. From the station, one can go deeper into the heart of Tokyo and find many things to do.

| Rules |
- Don't hog the spotlight, be inclusive and respectful to all players and characters.
- Give an average of four paragraphs per post.
- Give a post every 4-5 days or so. There won't be a posting order or anything so just post when you're able and feels appropriate.
- Be active in the OOC, talk about the plot, suggest things, make small talk, have fun, debate why we exist, just be civil and chill.
- Romance is encouraged but to an extent, keep it PG and don't let it derail the progression of the story.
- Lastly, communicate any foreseeable delays or issues you may have so we as a group and I, as a GM can help.

| Character Creation |
Guidelines | Your characters will be in their fourth, third or second year at Kanda International University. They will in turn be 19-21 years old, depending on their year. Characters are encouraged to come from any background, provided their relocation to Tokyo, Japan is reasonable and realistic. Characters should be sociable and able to maintain healthy friendship. Characters who have a lot of emotional baggage or issues with making friends will not be accepted. This RP is meant to be light and lively. Lastly, you'll need an anime appearance within your CS, it cannot be hand-drawn or in black and white, it must be something we can easily look to and refer back in regards to your character's general appearance.
Once you submit your CS, I will review it and then give you the approval to post it in the other tab. Thank you!

Notes | So this OOC is a work in progress. I'll be adding to it over the next day or two. Feel free to ask questions or submit CS here in the meantime. I haven't GMed for a group in a while, much less back on the Guild so please be patient! Thanks guys.
