New user + new character?

[kaihentai]

Hello new friends! I'm Icki and I am picking up Tatsuma Sakamoto from Gintama here at Haven, and I am both completely new to this website as well as to this community so if I seem a bit technologically challenged I totally apologize. There are so many amazing characters here that I am super excited to be playing with you all!

Sakamoto is kind of an absurd optimist with absolutely zero filter, and kind of a product of the super ridiculous series he's from. He's a lot of fun to play but I'm picking him up after a few years, so I am afraid I might be a little rusty. My plurk is fartbunnies but I recently signed up for it and I am still struggling to figure it out. Feel free to hit me up and chat! It's nice to meet you all~!

Sakamoto is also in room #4.001~! I apologize in advance, he's going to be a pretty loud and annoying roommate. ;-;

Welcome to both Haven and Dreamwidth, Icki! I'm Beech and I play Hinata (particularity) from Super Dangan Ronpa 2 here, as well as Elliot Nightray here who just got in.

I know some...of Gintama but yeah not enough to be reliable. Either way!

4.001 is really shaping up to be a really loud room, given Elliot is going to be there as well... so I look forward to playing with you!

[kaihentai]

Ah Dangan Ronpa! My roommate is super obsessed with that series but I am only familiar with the characters from the first game. Still, Hinata is the nice one right? Right????? I have no clue. I just call the entire franchise "damn it ron paul" let's be real here ok

Ahhhh, how much? Sakamoto doesn't appear very frequently so if you don't know much about the series you're likely to have missed him. It's a shame really! He's probably one of the friendliest characters from the series.

Oh no. I feel so bad. Sakamoto's roommates are going to hate him LOL <3

Elliot is from...?

[rebind]

LMAO well Hinata's certainly rather blunt and such but he's a nice guy. you gotta be understanding to be the dr2 protag.

jeez uh I watched/read Gintama in fact...years ago so I'm sure I am super mega behind.

oops and sorry, Elliot's from Pandora Hearts! he yells a lot but it's cool he means well...deep down.

[kaihentai]

Uhhhh true.

Ah, that's ok! It's good that you're familiar with the series. In addition to being absolutely hilarious it has some really heartwarming moments and a great cast.

Yelling is fine! Sakamoto is super loud~! So yelling is ok!

[3d2y]

omg yes i love gintama

i'm CAPS and i only play luffy! he's an absurd optimist too they'll have a lot of fun

[kaihentai]

GOOD FOR YOU DO YOU KNOW HOW EXCITED I AM HELLO usually when I app at places without Gintama casts nobody has any idea what is going on

Ah yaaaay! They'll be friends I know it~! I am pretty sure Sakamoto will really like Luffy.

[3d2y]

GINTAMA IS GREAT THEYRE MISSING OUT .....

yes theyll definitely get along!! and enable each other to go to crazier new heights .... luffy will find sakamoto hilarious tbh

[kaihentai]

UH YES

OMG THANK U BLESS U LUFFY THAT IS CUTE these two are going to be great friends!!!

[gimmicks]

hello icki! :D i'm lena, and i play some losers (this guy from ohsc, izumo (tamer) from ane, and miyamura (miyamura) from horimiya) AND I'M EXCITED FOR SAKAMOTO despite being canonblind... i hear... some crazy things about gintama lmaklsdja 8DD

[kaihentai]

AH YAY I am happy someone knows who it is! It's nice to meet you and yes it's pretty crazy I am looking forward to playing here!

[gimmicks]

HE WILL BE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR IN ALL THIS WOE

[kaihentai]

TO BE HONEST THAT'S WHY I APPED HIM HERE He's just going to be sunny and kind and optimistic about everything. Like he's always smiling and cheery and lovely in canon so if the author ever draws him like crying or sad I will probably actually cry...

also in canon we never really see him down at all even with the recent flashback arc he appeared in... ARE YOU CAUGHT UP WITH THE MANGA FRIEND sakamoto reappeared I was so excited?

[expendablepride]

SCREAMS INTO THE SUN

I am one of the people Lena was talking about. My friend and I (who also plays here) flipped all sorts of shit when we saw your app ahhhh. We played Gintoki and Zura for a long while, and Gintama's super close to our hearts and is this even real life???

GOD WHAT AM I DOING. HELLO ICKI!! I'm Pris! I have just met you and I already love you, oh my god. I play Alvin from Tales of Xillia, and HE IS A ROOMIE JSFHKJKHSJKDFH

I am so sorry for this lack of coherency, I am way too thrilled to be making proper sentences and words ahhhhsdjf kh

[kaihentai]

OH MY GOODNESS WELL HELL-FUCKING-O I HOPE I DON't DISAPPOINT?????????????? you should app Zura or Kintoki here *coughs* No that is super lovely~! Have I ever played with you before? I know a lot of other Sakamoto players from way back when because there weren't very many of us playing him like 3 years ago. Ah I am super excited!

IS HE REALLY OMG

"Ahahaha! Alvin! Aren't you supposed to be a chipmunk or something?" ideeeek you will probably get tags along that sort of punchline

THANK YOU FOR BEING EXCITED WHEN I USED TO PLAY SAKAMOTO TBQH NOBODY KNEW WHERE THE FUCK HE WAS FROM SO THANK U ALSO GINTAMA IS A WAY OF LIFE?????????????

[expendablepride]

crying the sad thing is I did have Gintoki here for like... a day before I realized having him here was a Bad Idea and dropped him sdflhjksdj I am a colossal idiot. Your username isn't familiar, so I don't think we've ever played together, but if it helps any my Gintoki is silvershamurai?

LOL YES GOOD. You know what else is super fab though, Alvin is also voiced by Sugita huehue.

GINTAMA IS THE GREATEST WAY OF LIFE. EVER. EVERYTHING ELSE SHOULD PACK UP AND GO HOME TBH.

[kaihentai]

Ahhh I understand! Humorous characters in bad settings = bad. also, isn't gintoki SUPER afraid of ghosts hahahaha? He'd totally be freaked out 100% of the time. Are you up to date on the manga? Sakamoto just appeared and there was another super frightened Gintoki is super afraid of ghosts moment~! Thankfully Sakamoto is a dummy so he's just going to go through all of this with a grin on his face

WAIT REALLY HAHAHAHAHA

"Kintoki? Why are you lying to me? Why are you pretending to be a chipmunk? Ahaha... I know it's you! Do you think I wouldn't recognize your voice after all these years?"

there are a lot of characters voiced by sugita so like i don't know who sakamoto would confuse for gintoki tbqh i have never had this problem before

ummmmm that last statement you made is 100% true

[eyeofthetiger]

OMFG, ICKI.

Hello and welcome! I'm a Parsnip and I used to play Jennifer over at Marinasylum. I still play over there with various other characters, but I also play here in Haven with Dean Winchester.

It's nice to see you back in a game again! I feel like it's been at least two years or so, hasn't it?

Also, good luck with the lack of alcohol in this place! Sakamoto is going to hate it.

[kaihentai]

OMG PARSNIP MY DEAR ADD ME ON THIS PLURK (fartbunnies) BUSINESS HELLO I LOVE YOU IT IS NICE TO HELLO I am soooo excited to play with you again!

There's actually been a couple of canon updates since I last played Sakamoto and even though he really loves alcohol he can actually function without it. He won't be happy about the lack of it though, but he's going to look at the bright side of things!

Ya it's been like 2 years since I dropped but really 3 years since I was active! I am actually going to reapp at Marina too!

Man it is so funny that you play Dean now because I am so used to you being Jennifer ;) It'll be fun!

[eyeofthetiger]

I know. Two social characters but one is an ass and the other was just out in left field all the time. It will certainly be fun seeing how the CR has changed, heh. And yes! i saw that reserve at Marina. We're going to have good times /o/

also, adding you in just a second.

[kaihentai]

It's going to be so weird tagging Dean because I keep imagining Jennifer's face photoshopped onto Dean's body and it is just what the hell I am really stupid

<3!

[evocalize]

SAKAMOTO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I think you already know me from Plurk, but oh my goodness Sakamoto, is this even real life etc-

*Cough* I'm Ari and I just play Minato Arisato here, and as it's unlikely that I'd app Zura here Sakamoto is free to fourth-wall him any time in penance since they have the same voice actor. Um, I mean.

/screeches some more off-screen

[kaihentai]

Wait Minato is voiced by Akira Ishida? Oh man! Ah, I can see how this place isn't conducive to Gintama characters because of the tone ^^() I hope I don't disappoint you!

[evocalize]

After Pris dropped that one time I kind of realized that it'd be a very bad idea to play Zura here because yeah...the lack of humour and such makes for them being less enjoyable overall, Sakamoto is one of the few characters for which it wouldn't make a difference.

And yes, they share the same voice actor and technically Minato's canon name is Makoto Yuki now due to the movie coming out in Fall 2013 and you would be pretty much making my RP career complete if you can somehow get Minato to correct him the same way Katsura does.

You cannot possibly disappoint me, incidentally!

[astralogist]

Hey hey there, my name's Rex and it's nice to meetcha! I play Lon'qu from Fire Emblem: Awakening and Caster from Fate/Extra. I'm not familiar with Gintama but that won't stop us from rping with each other.

We're a friendly community so you're in good hands here! If you have any questions about anything rp-related/the community/what color shirt matches dark jeans don't hesitate to drop me a private message.

Welcome to the game!

[kaihentai]

It's nice to meet you and thank you for the very warm welcome! Pssssh like being canonblind is going to stop me from interacting with everyone with this idiot~!

I noticed! Everyone is super duper nice. Thank you and I look forward to playing with you!
