Confirmation?! A blast from the past!
Probably most of you knew about Japan going retro and making new anime for two old franchises: one Trigun (a movie)... the other Slayers (a TV series).
Now, I heard the news a couple of days ago, but I decided to be impressed about the new Slayers series if and only if it was a Gourry arc. Well, scans from the Dragon Magazine announcement popped in, and who are the characters in the image? Lina. Gourry. Zelgadiss. Amelia. ETA: And Xelloss!
In short, AGDFHGAS DHSGA HFHB ♥ I feel like I'm seventeen again *___*
And now I feel like rewatching the whole anime again, and roleplaying as Lina Inverse. And I think I will, at Mansión as my second (or third...?) pup, when I refresh my memory with a marathon.
In other news, you know what's really uncomfortable about wanting to play a videogame-origined muse? That I have this need to replay their whole canon, notepad open, and write down every fact, every dialog, every third character commenting about them. It doesn't happen to me with anime/manga characters; then again, when I need to know something about those I just open the right volume/.avi and that's it. With videogames, I'm too focused on the plot or the gaming, and having to make gazillion saves for every cutscene/conversation with the character is too geeky or sometimes just impossible.
But my problem is that I -have to- write the info down. I just roll like that. I thought I did it with Ushiwaka because I'm building him a fansite/shrine. But now that I want to roleplay this other game character (I refuse to say who right now, because it embarrasses me), and I knew I had to replay and write things down because Wiki and fansites don't give me enough tidbits and data...? I understood it was me being an as-IC-as-possible geek. Am I the only one doing this?

Maybe not for my CCS characters because I have easy access to their canon. But I still don't have the FMA volumes with Mei, and as much as I like rewatching Who it'll be a pain to search for the right episode every time I get a doubt about Martha... *ponders*

I don't do that for CCS characters, either. But it is true that Martha or anyone from a long-ish canon could be a problem.
The thing about roleplaying a game character is that you'd have to replay his canon. It's not only reading or watching, but doing lots of stuff, and you waste so much time (sometimes days) just to review a random line or a fact about their family or how they reacted to an event. HELL NO.
The good thing is, if the series is popular or well-liked enough, you can find playthroughs or cutscenes on Youtube or some other site. I do that with Waka sometimes, and a big part of my txt are from these videos, not me playing. The mystery character I'm thinking right now is from a fairly popular franchise, so I already found someone who's uploading videos :DDD

Not only with videogame characters but with anime and manga characters as well. I should replay Kingdom Hearts and do the same for Riku, because I feel like I should. Especially because I can't remember exactly when it was the last time I replayed both games. So you're not alone. ♥

I haven't roleplayed any animanga character besides CCS, so I might as well take notes when I rewatch Slayers...
