Character: Tsukino Azusagawa
Series: Yakitate!! Japan
Character Age: 16
Canon: Bread making is serious business. Or at least it is in Yakitate!! Japan. The story is about a boy named Kazuma Azuma, a shonen retard hero boy with Solar Hands, and his journey to make a national bread for Japan. But this isn't about him.
This is about Tsukino Azusagawa, granddaughter to the owner of Pantasia, a famous bakery, and one of three potential heirs. Between making bread, betting on her co-workers, and enforcing a lack of productivity, Tsukino is embroiled in a Cinderella story, only the stepsisters are twice as evil, Prince Charming has a headband (or an afro), and instead of a glass slipper, there's bread. Everywhere. Tsukino is beautiful, a talented baker, and an all around sweet girl. She tends to be somewhat of a chameleon; her quiet exterior can hide a plotting, cunning woman. However, she's prone to fourth wall breaking, insane reactions to bread, and being abused picked on by the other main characters. Her cheerful demeanor, while sometimes a facade, seems to rub off on her employees (some more than others) and tends to boost morale when sales are down at the Southern Tokyo Branch (which they usually are).

Welcome, campers, to your first lesson in 'Wild Cooking!' As your instructor for the day, I'll be showing you how to make a nice meal, even in the great outdoors. Why? Because this is a summer camp, of course! Not to mention, according to the letter, there's a nice salary involved~. Win-win situation, I'd say. It's going to be fun, so let's get energized, okay? The director wrote and told me you all suffered a massive bread reaction, and wanted me to instruct this special class in hopes of reversing it. Now come on, show a little excitement! For being out in the sun for so long, you all seem so pale and lifeless. Is this one of those 'computer camps' I keep hearing about? Either way, don't worry, you'll all do fine! Now, let's add the spaghetti to our pot over here on the open fire. "Copypasta"? Is this a new brand?
Now that we've gotten the main course going, it's time to concentrate on dessert! First we need some... Splenda? Why can't I use- oh, sugar's not allowed? Thank you for telling me, Toucan-san. Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to sound insensitive. I hope that what I'm cooking will reverse this terrible reaction. Such a horrible reaction, in some of you... What could have caused this? Not even Kuroyanagi had reactions this bad, and I've seen some bad ones. Now, where was I...?
Oh yes, dessert. I think I'm doing a bit too much here... Gorilla-san, you've come to help me? Fantastic! Just shake those sauce-covered berries in the Splenda, and they'll be ready. Campers, I think I can see a little light in those eyes of yours (the ones that I can see, anyway). Has my skill and example of teamwork inspired you to help yourselves? Wonderful! As happy as I am to see so many of you stepping up to help, there's only one thing left to do, and that's add the special ingredient to the spaghetti. So, I'm afraid I can't find something for all of you to do...
H-hey! Wait a second! Why are are you pushing me towards the pot?! Contrary to what you may have heard, I do not have a flavor!

Character: Luke Smith
Series: The Sarah Jane Adventures
Age: Appears 13
Canon: The Sarah Jane Adventures is a heartwarming story about a boy and his MILF. Luke Smith is that boy. To fully understand the SJA, think of it as basically Doctor Who, for kids. Then realise that since Doctor Who is already for kids, the SJA are really just an excuse for a former companion of the Doctor to have a rollicking good time fighting aliens and saving the world in similar ways to the Doc himself, but with the added involvement of a bunch of kids along for the ride.
Luke himself was created in a lab a few months ago by a group of aliens who thought that fizzy drinks were the best way to take over the world. This would have been a great plan had everyone liked fizzy drinks, but unfortunately they needed a little something extra to get to those who didn’t. So they grew a boy. And not just any boy, but one formed from the thoughts and memories of the entire human race. Naturally, all that random information has formed a socially awkward thirteen-year-old boy with the vocabulary and speech patterns of an eighteenth-century physics textbook writer whose lived in a university for most of his adult life. Basically, Luke can give you some extraordinarily brilliant reasons for why e really does equal mc squared, but needs to ask someone to explain the purpose of games. Ridiculously earnest and extremely keen to please every one he comes into contact with, he'll try to provide people with help in just about any situation, including accidentally telling a teacher how to blow up the world. Despite his rather dorktacular personality, however, all things considered Luke Smith is a kid you want on your side when the bad guys are closing in. Especially if you need someone to help you steal a shuttlecraft.

Oh, good morning, sir! I seem to have breached dimensional space and so I was wondering if you could possibly assist me to resolve some complex mathematical homework to reverse that conclusion. It's supposed to be an introduction to fractioned equations, however I asked my teacher whether or not we were expected to discuss the effects of quantum on mathematical division out of real space, and he gave me a funny look and said that if I thought it was relevant to the problem then that would be fine. My answers are accurate to fifteen decimal places, so I am certain that my performance is adequate. Unfortunately it seems that I can't locate all of the results in the companion connect-the-dot puzzle, therefore I've had to alter some of the conjoining vectors to ensure that the image provides an recognisable representation of what I believe to be a dodecahedron phased with a cube.
In any case, I was midway through answering problem fifteen when I realised that I wasn’t on the lounge chair anymore. Whilst I’m not aware of the precise mechanics of my translocation, I believe it relates to the combined effect of problems six, ten and fourteen’s improbable results being located in such close proximity to each other on the sheet. They seem to have interacted quite unusually with the diagrammatic representation, such that the centre of the page has actually folded in on itself, which has lead to the present dilemma of my transferred location. You, sir, seem to be marked with quantification symbology, therefore am I correct in assuming that you are the mathematical designer of this particular pocket dimension? If so, would you care to take a look at my answers and demonstrate how to reverse their effects from this location? I’m simply not familiar with your gateway address. Here - please take a look. You'll see the primary issue about halfway down the page, where I state quite clearly that in order to follow the problem to its ultimate conclusion, one needs to divide by 0.000000000000042 - a denominator far to close to zero than I am comfortable with when using just a standard issue calculator.
Oh, you see the problem! That's fabulous. Do you think you can reverse the effect at all? Perhaps I need to input an algorithm between points five and eight on the design? I considered that approach, however ultimately I believe that would simply lead to continued division by zero further on, and I'm really not certain that the paper could withstand such an attack, particularly given its already deteriorated state. But if you insist, I can give it a try...
There, you see? Something awful always happens when you divide by zero. Normally it just involves complex negative transnumeration, but I’m not entirely surprised to see such an unusual result when we're located within extradimensional space, although I'm not certain why it was your hand that fell off when it was my own that completed the equation. Er, you should really have that looked at by a trained medical practitioner, and quickly. If you wait too long, the tissue will putrefy and no one will be able to reattach it. I can take a look at it if you like, but I’d highly recommend seeking professional help, since the decay process is advancing rather swiftly. And spreading.
No, multiplying by zero will not solve the problem. In fact, the effects are likely to increase by at least tenfold. If you insist on completing that action, however, I think I’ll just take a few steps backward before... oh. I did try to warn you. I believe it would now be best to locate that medical professional, as it's generally considered impossible to survive for long periods of time without one's cranium attached.

Character: Amano Yukiteru
Series: Mirai Nikki
Character Age: Middle school student
Canon: Mirai Nikki is the story of an ordinary boy who is given a wonderful gift by God...
Alright, so that's not exactly correct. Mirai Nikki is a manga about a game invented by Deus Ex Machina - the God of Time and Space - to find the one to replace him. Twelve contestants were chosen and each was given a diary with the ability to tell the future. The point of the game? Use your diary to kill all the other contestants!
Amano Yukiteru is the 'hero' of the story, albeit a very poor one. Prior to the start of the game Yukiteru was an extreme recluse, spending all day recording the events he witnessed instead of actually talking to people; in fact, his only friends were Deus and his servant Muramura (who he though were figments of his imagination). After the start of the game Yukiteru changes his ways and tries hard to make friends - even with enemies and people who have blatantly tried to kill him. He may be a bit of a crybaby at times and, yeah, he's a little too forgiving at times, but he can get the job done. Besides, he's the cast member least likely to kill you in horrible whiles until he gets Joss'd.
On Yukiteru's Future Diary, the "No Difference Diary". It records events happening around Yukiteru, from his perspective. If he misinterprets what he witnesses, it is reflected in what is written in the diary. The diary also has a critical flaw: other then the Dead End/Game Over flag, it won't record anything that actually happens to Yukiteru. If a Future Diary holder's diary is damaged, the holder will die.

Character: Riku
Series: Kingdom Hearts
Character Age: 16
Canon: Thanks to a girl who literally washed up on his beach, Riku got the idea in his head that he needed to gather some friends and make a raft to sail away from the islands that had been his home. Unfortunately, like all trips, this one didn't go as planned, due to everyone getting separated and the whole world getting torn to pieces. He spent much of his time in the first game either making various Very Bad Decisions, hanging out with the League of Extraordinary Disney Villains or being possessed. He spent the next two games having his head screwed with and trying to figure out if he belonged to the Light or the Dark side (it turned out to be both, really). He also gained a Keyblade somewhere along the way.
Riku is a good guy, though you wouldn't know it at a glance. After a bout of extreme jealousy caused a rift between him and his friends, and overconfidence nearly cost him his life, he lost a little of his cocky attitude. He's still confident in himself and his abilities, and still very likely to get jealous and sulky if the occasion calls for it.
Sample Post:
...This is definitely not the world I was in before.
I think I would know if I was suddenly in a giant castle one minute and waking up in the middle of...a swamp, from the looks of it...the next. That explosion might've done something to my head or I'm dead.
Either way, this place is weird. I'm pretty sure that bush just swore at me as I passed it, and those birds are horrible at singing...or what I assume is singing, and...
Hey! And now the wildlife are stealing my clothes. Fine, keep the glove, I didn't want it all that much anyway. You can have the other one, too, if you'd like; I'd rather not explain to the first person I meet that one of my gloves was stolen by a squirrel. Just leave the coat alone. I'll skewer the first thing to try to strip me. At least you guys don't seem to be hiding any Heartless around here...yet
Speaking of Heartless, I'm looking for a friend. He's got spiky brown hair, blue eyes, and carries a Keyblade around with him. He's hard to miss. He might have his girlfriend with him; I'm looking for her, too. Let me know if you see them.

Character: Dorothy “Ace” McShane
Series: Doctor Who
Character Age: 16
Canon: Doctor Who is about an alien called the Doctor who travels through time and space in his TARDIS, a ship that’s bigger on the inside and stuck in the shape of a police box. Throughout his journeys, he tends to pick up traveling companions. One of these companions is Ace, the problem child from nice, boring Perivale.
Ace was very much a troubled teen on Earth, hiding issues with her mother and other insecurities under a mask of bravado. Despite doing badly at school and eventually being expelled (blowing up the Art room didn’t count as a creative act), she is extremely clever and particularly gifted in chemistry. She mixes up her own explosives, and it was during an experiment that she accidentally created a timestorm in her room and got whisked away to the distant planet where she met the Doctor. She bonds with him quickly and commits herself to ‘watching his back.’ Through the Doctor’s influence, and occasional manipulation, Ace comes to terms with many of her problems. She isn’t completely cured of her rebellious streak, however, and she continues to act brashly and call people by the interesting insults and nicknames she creates.
Sample Post:
How come whenever you make a crash landing, it’s never anyplace nice? You know, it’s never a beach or anything. It’s always a swamp, or a desert, or a battleground. Or Perivale. And there’s never anyone around either. You’d think someone would notice a spaceship landing in their backyard, but no. You go walking around for hours before you find anybody, and then they tell you you’re in a no parking zone and they’re impounding your vehicle or something. It’d be easier if they just threw rocks or shot at us from the start. No false hope of peace, then. Oh hold on, here we go. Looks like somebody’s paying attention for once.
Oi! Bogbreath! Yeah, you…with the rotting face. Is this really Earth like the screen said? You seen a blue box around here anywhere? Funny thing is, I just stepped outside, and when I turned around it was gone. You don’t happen to know anything about that, do you? Only that’s my ride, and I need to find it so I can get out of here. I’m not saying one of you took it or anything, but this is where it vanished from, and you’re the only one here, mate.
Hey, you don’t have to ignore me like that! Look, I don’t want to be here anymore than you want me here, alright? As soon as I find the TARDIS, I can leave you alone and get out of your little swamp. Oh right, camp. Sorry. Just doesn’t really look like any camp I ever went to. ‘Course I’ve only been to one, and they kicked me out two days in. I’m still not allowed within a hundred meters of the place, come to think of it. Really, it’s not my fault the cots weren’t fireproof. They should’ve had better safety standards. Not like I ever wanted to go there in the first place…And I definitely don’t want to relive the camp days I never had now, so if you could point me in the direction of someone more helpful than you, that’d be really great.
…Are you even listening to me? Oi, Fishface! Did you hear me? Oh, forget it, I’ll find my own way around. But if any of your cabins wind up blown to little bits, don’t blame it on me. Honestly, if you want something done…

Character: Michiru Mochizuki
Series: Fun Fun Factory
Character Age: 16
Canon: Once upon a time there was a sweets shop. And it was run by a crazy magic man, who one day decided "lol I think I will toss these ten cursed star fruit in these desserts, and this witch berry in this parfait." In other words, when Michiru Mochizuki, a normal, cheerful girl receives her 'Curse ala Mode,' she also receives a nice happy CURSE. WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED?! She is now posessed by a mischevious, playful, rude little witch who can be a bit moody, and must find ten cursed boys to. Um. Make something happen. But we don't really know what that something is. Even after finding them, we're still not sure. All that's really changed is that the witch sometimes takes control of her body to aid in her OWN search for a 'cat.'
Despite being a complete spazz sometimes, Michiru is a generally normal girl. She's cheerful, optimistic, and kind. Despite all the problems that have suddenly fallen in her lap, Michiru still mostly worries about the cursed boys. If anything, she is happy to suddenly meet so many cute boys, and to have made more friends. ... Oh and when she sings, cake falls from the sky. Most magic in this series seems to revolve around sweets, really.
Sample Post:
Dear mom,
How are you? I've been doing good. Some weird things have been happening lately. I wrote about the singing right? Well it seems like this time--Aaaah what am I doing writing letters in my head at a time like this?! Okay, um - right now I need to find out where I am! More importantly how to get home. I think I'd rather know how to get home than where I am.
As for how I got here, I'm pretty sure I already know. The witch, of course. ... Or maybe Sonou-san. Realistically, he tends to do things like this without remorse. No - but... The song didn't teleport me around before. Just make cake fall. I don't even remember singing it, but it's usually the source of... Everything.
♪ Piritto paretto, pikatto poketto~ ♫
... Ah? Just cake... Maybe if I eat some? Sweets sometimes fix things. ... No, nothing. It was really tasty, though.
Okay, so! Mission one, find someone and ask them where I am! Mission two... Find a shower. I have cake in my hair. It's kind of gross. Oh! Excuse me! Can you tell me where - OH you are a zombie neverminddon'tmindmeokay goodbye! Let's stay way over here away from everything that moves.
Sonou-saaaan~ Why do you always do this to me~?
I can't watch this anymore, this is pathetic! It's annoying for me too, when she's lost. And that stupid girl goes and blames it on me. I'm in this body, too, so it's annoying if we're somewhere bizarre. It's definitely that idiot from the store. Trying to make it difficult for me to find that stupid kitten. I'll find him anyway! Tch.
You! Zombie! Tell me where I am!
... Arrrg! You're useless! Stupid! Idiot brain-dead zombie! ... Well that's a given, but still! Hmph! Enjoy your time as a kitten, you stupid monster. And I doubt any of these other animals are any more useful. It would be a waste of magic to turn them all into helpless kittens, though. But on the other hand it's far too amusing to pass up a jungle full of kitties. ♥ Hmhm~ Maybe I can get them to lure out that stupid cat~ How about it~? ... D-don't scratch me! Bad kitty! Arg! I hate cats, I hate cats, I hate cats!
And what's with this girl's body? She's flatter than me!

Canon: Thanks to a girl who literally washed up on his beach, Riku got the idea in his head that he needed to gather some friends and make a raft to sail away from the islands that had been his home. Unfortunately, like all trips, this one didn't go as planned, due to everyone getting separated and the whole world getting torn to pieces. He spent much of his time in the first game either making various Very Bad Decisions, hanging out with the League of Extraordinary Disney Villains or being possessed. He spent the next two games having his head screwed with and trying to figure out if he belonged to the Light or the Dark side (it turned out to be both, really). He also gained a Keyblade somewhere along the way.
Riku is a good guy, though you wouldn't know it at a glance. After a bout of extreme jealousy caused a rift between him and his friends, and overconfidence nearly cost him his life, he lost a little of his cocky attitude. He's still confident in himself and his abilities, and still very likely to get jealous and sulky if the occasion calls for it.

...This is definitely not the world I was in before.
I think I would know if I was suddenly in a giant castle one minute and waking up in the middle of...a swamp, from the looks of it...the next. That explosion might've done something to my head or I'm dead.
Either way, this place is weird. I'm pretty sure that bush just swore at me as I passed it, and those birds are horrible at singing...or what I assume is singing, and...
Hey! And now the wildlife are stealing my clothes. Fine, keep the glove, I didn't want it all that much anyway. You can have the other one, too, if you'd like; I'd rather not explain to the first person I meet that one of my gloves was stolen by a squirrel. Just leave the coat alone. I'll skewer the first thing to try to strip me. At least you guys don't seem to be hiding any Heartless around here...yet
Speaking of Heartless, I'm looking for a friend. He's got spiky brown hair, blue eyes, and carries a Keyblade around with him. He's hard to miss. He might have his girlfriend with him; I'm looking for her, too. Let me know if you see them.
...
uh...
Are those zombies?

Character: Dorothy “Ace” McShane
Series: Doctor Who
Character Age: 16
Canon: Doctor Who is about an alien called the Doctor who travels through time and space in his TARDIS, a ship that’s bigger on the inside and stuck in the shape of a police box. Throughout his journeys, he tends to pick up traveling companions. One of these companions is Ace, the problem child from nice, boring Perivale.
Ace was very much a troubled teen on Earth, hiding issues with her mother and other insecurities under a mask of bravado. Despite doing badly at school and eventually being expelled (blowing up the Art room didn’t count as a creative act), she is extremely clever and particularly gifted in chemistry. She mixes up her own explosives, and it was during an experiment that she accidentally created a timestorm in her room and got whisked away to the distant planet where she met the Doctor. She bonds with him quickly and commits herself to ‘watching his back.’ Through the Doctor’s influence, and occasional manipulation, Ace comes to terms with many of her problems. She isn’t completely cured of her rebellious streak, however, and she continues to act brashly and call people by the interesting insults and nicknames she creates.

How come whenever you make a crash landing, it’s never anyplace nice? You know, it’s never a beach or anything. It’s always a swamp, or a desert, or a battleground. Or Perivale. And there’s never anyone around either. You’d think someone would notice a spaceship landing in their backyard, but no. You go walking around for hours before you find anybody, and then they tell you you’re in a no parking zone and they’re impounding your vehicle or something. It’d be easier if they just threw rocks or shot at us from the start. No false hope of peace, then. Oh hold on, here we go. Looks like somebody’s paying attention for once.
Oi! Bogbreath! Yeah, you…with the rotting face. Is this really Earth like the screen said? You seen a blue box around here anywhere? Funny thing is, I just stepped outside, and when I turned around it was gone. You don’t happen to know anything about that, do you? Only that’s my ride, and I need to find it so I can get out of here. I’m not saying one of you took it or anything, but this is where it vanished from, and you’re the only one here, mate.
Hey, you don’t have to ignore me like that! Look, I don’t want to be here anymore than you want me here, alright? As soon as I find the TARDIS, I can leave you alone and get out of your little swamp. Oh right, camp. Sorry. Just doesn’t really look like any camp I ever went to. ‘Course I’ve only been to one, and they kicked me out two days in. I’m still not allowed within a hundred meters of the place, come to think of it. Really, it’s not my fault the cots weren’t fireproof. They should’ve had better safety standards. Not like I ever wanted to go there in the first place…And I definitely don’t want to relive the camp days I never had now, so if you could point me in the direction of someone more helpful than you, that’d be really great.
…Are you even listening to me? Oi, Fishface! Did you hear me? Oh, forget it, I’ll find my own way around. But if any of your cabins wind up blown to little bits, don’t blame it on me. Honestly, if you want something done…

Character: Michiru Mochizuki
Series: Fun Fun Factory
Character Age: 16
Canon: Once upon a time there was a sweets shop. And it was run by a crazy magic man, who one day decided "lol I think I will toss these ten cursed star fruit in these desserts, and this witch berry in this parfait." In other words, when Michiru Mochizuki, a normal, cheerful girl receives her 'Curse ala Mode,' she also receives a nice happy CURSE. WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED?! She is now posessed by a mischevious, playful, rude little witch who can be a bit moody, and must find ten cursed boys to. Um. Make something happen. But we don't really know what that something is. Even after finding them, we're still not sure. All that's really changed is that the witch sometimes takes control of her body to aid in her OWN search for a 'cat.'
Despite being a complete spazz sometimes, Michiru is a generally normal girl. She's cheerful, optimistic, and kind. Despite all the problems that have suddenly fallen in her lap, Michiru still mostly worries about the cursed boys. If anything, she is happy to suddenly meet so many cute boys, and to have made more friends. ... Oh and when she sings, cake falls from the sky. Most magic in this series seems to revolve around sweets, really.

Dear mom,
How are you? I've been doing good. Some weird things have been happening lately. I wrote about the singing right? Well it seems like this time--Aaaah what am I doing writing letters in my head at a time like this?! Okay, um - right now I need to find out where I am! More importantly how to get home. I think I'd rather know how to get home than where I am.
As for how I got here, I'm pretty sure I already know. The witch, of course. ... Or maybe Sonou-san. Realistically, he tends to do things like this without remorse. No - but... The song didn't teleport me around before. Just make cake fall. I don't even remember singing it, but it's usually the source of... Everything.
♪ Piritto paretto, pikatto poketto~ ♫
... Ah? Just cake... Maybe if I eat some? Sweets sometimes fix things. ... No, nothing. It was really tasty, though.
Okay, so! Mission one, find someone and ask them where I am! Mission two... Find a shower. I have cake in my hair. It's kind of gross. Oh! Excuse me! Can you tell me where - OH you are a zombie neverminddon'tmindmeokay goodbye! Let's stay way over here away from everything that moves.
Sonou-saaaan~ Why do you always do this to me~?
I can't watch this anymore, this is pathetic! It's annoying for me too, when she's lost. And that stupid girl goes and blames it on me. I'm in this body, too, so it's annoying if we're somewhere bizarre. It's definitely that idiot from the store. Trying to make it difficult for me to find that stupid kitten. I'll find him anyway! Tch.
You! Zombie! Tell me where I am!
... Arrrg! You're useless! Stupid! Idiot brain-dead zombie! ... Well that's a given, but still! Hmph! Enjoy your time as a kitten, you stupid monster. And I doubt any of these other animals are any more useful. It would be a waste of magic to turn them all into helpless kittens, though. But on the other hand it's far too amusing to pass up a jungle full of kitties. ♥ Hmhm~ Maybe I can get them to lure out that stupid cat~ How about it~? ... D-don't scratch me! Bad kitty! Arg! I hate cats, I hate cats, I hate cats!
And what's with this girl's body? She's flatter than me!
