Mostly humorous, sometimes serious, this thread discusses the gorgeous (or in Miss-Maria's case, not-so-gorgeous) women (and the few men) of the recently-ended series, Mai Otome as life partners.

Let The Fun Begin...

Edit: Please Feel Free To Do Repeats of already written characters. It would be fun to see how opinions differ across this fan community regarding common subjects.

[Ronin Aquila]

To kick off the fun, let's start with a poor candidate.

Nina Wong

Looks: Aesthetically adequate features that are quite pleasant if she actually smiled, which unfortunately is as rare as a blue moon. Has the right curves in the right places, more pronounced than Arika but nowhere as voloptuous as Erestine, though still possessing a steely yet vulnerable eroticism in her own right. Will no doubt be even more alluring as she fills out with age.

Personality: Though nowhere as mean spirited as Yuuki Nao of Mai Hime, much of the time Miss Wong can be just as unpleasant. Though her loyalty to the few people she loves is commendable, her obstinate refusal to express such love without a sword at her neck (figurative or literal) isn't. Cold as a blizzard and as approachable as a badger is a rather pleasant euphemism to describe her people-skills. Beware also if you earn her affections; for the atrocities that she is willing to commit in the name of your happiness can rival the cruelty of Nazis and will haunt your conscience for lifetimes to come.

Intelligence: There is a distinction between academic intelligence and wisdom: Nina Wong possesses an abundance of the former, and a deplorable deficiency in the latter. Quite incapable of forming decisions or opinions unmotivated by her love for Sergey, she is likely to resign free though (and therefore, will) to those who hold the lives of her father in their hands when faced with doubt over the morality of an action. A lot of work is needed to reform her to a socially functionable human being.

Economics: Being the daughter of a decorated soldier would ensure a modestly comfortable living. The fact that marriage will probably void her other form of income therefore should not be too much of an issue. Though set aside a vacation fund of your own as you WILL be tempted to take "breaks" away from what is affectively an unaffectionate human shaped block of ice.

Competition: Sergey Wong. Good Luck Buddy. She is quite willing to remorselessly murder thousands (if not millions) of women and children for him. And though Nina reveres Sergey as a daughter to a father, she simultaneously eroticises him as a goal of sexual desires. What she needs isn't you or any man right now. What she needs is a nice long talk with Elektra and a dozen psychiatrists first.

Warrior Skills: Towards the end of the series, Nina Wong posseses the literal potence of a humanoid thermonuclear weapon, capable of single-handedly wiping out entire civilizations. Besides that, like all other Otome except of Shizuru, Haruka and Nao, her fighting style is so bland and remarkably free of technique that anyone with equal strength and ANY skill should be able to contend to her. DAMN SUNRISE FOR NOT HIRING BETTER FIGHT CHOREOGRAPHERS!!

Housekeeping Skills: Though the princess of a wealthy household, her experience as a room monitor for Nao Chang would imply that she is capable of maintaining a disciplined and tidy, if cold and bland, household.

Sex: Hmm... as Arika-Chan demonstrates, uptight people are all the more easily "aroused" when given the right triggers. Expect foreplay to be short if you have quick spiderlike fingers. But careful!! Too much "foreplay" with Miss Wong and the actual act itself will lose its necessity. Foreplay or not, it would take a man with the self control of a saint to refuse her erotically demure nude profile bathed in pale moonlight; yet another reason to respect the man who is Sergey Wong.

Father/Mother Material: You will need to be the one who takes care of your child's emotional growth, for she would no doubt be so fixated on your happiness that she may even forget your children exist. She could very well kill them if she saw it fit as a means to make you happy.

Overall: Her frankly disturbing father complex aside, Nina Wong is currently a selfish and cold bundle of a whole-lot of other issues that is frankly more trouble than she is worth. However, brutality of conduct aside, the kid's heart is in the right place: Teach her to open it, and you'll have a rather interesting life, leading a devoted lover and friend down the path to humanity.

[Tempest35]

ROFL! Great as always~! After Arika-chan and Ers-chan have their time in the spotlight, I say one for Sergay has GOT to be made.

But yeah, poor Nina...too bad we couldn't see Nina and Arika as Pearls - THAT would have been as interesting as seeing Mai's and Natsuki's Pearl year.

[Tremalkinger]

I'll reserve this space for doing one for Juliet Nao Zhang when I get back from class.

[Shigan]

Arararara... Here we gooo *LOAD SHIGAN CARTRIDGE-!*

Shizuru Viola - a.k.a Yuriness Supreme

Looks: Refined Sensuality, two words that easily come to mind when describing Miss Viola's exterior charisma. Tall, exotic and criminally beautiful, Shizuru is much like her Hime counterpart the epitome of what every lady strives to be. Her supreme womanly proportions are enchanted even more so by her rare colour complexions of chestnut hair and ruby eyes, and beware, she knows how to use the weapons God has granted her. While her appeal lacks the gut punch kinda sex-me-now message of modern supermodels (a.k.a Natsuki), her looks makes her unquestionably THE female power to recon with - be you man or woman, if she wants you she will have you one way or another, and you will probably be happy to give in.

Personality: Arara - To the world and everyone save the one and only Natsuki, Shizuru will always seem like the unreachable image of female perfection. But don't let her female charms, tea-tea-tea cravings and goddess like physics trick you to believe that there's nothing else to it, Miss Viola is the third Garderobe Pillar and assistant to Acting Headmaster for a very very good reason. On the other hand, if you happen to be said Headmaster, you have probably already experienced the manipulative and playful side of this two faced woman at its very finest, and while you blush and stutter and fumble in the face of her subtle but merciless puns - you will suprisingly find that you don't mind, especially when she serves you your well-deserved cup of tea after a day of council meetings.

Intelligence: While not being the first thing you would be fixated on upon meeting her, it is with little doubt the crown of all her assets. No sane man or woman would underestimate Shizuru's intellect. Schoolastic or worldy, she knows how the world operates and she knows very well how to manipulate it to work to her benefits, and she will in no way be shy of using all her physical and mental strenghts like assets to attain her goals. We can only be grateful that world-domination (Nagi and Shizuru as a team...say your prayers) has never appealed to her since her wits and loyalty is reserved for Garderobe alone, or to serve a certain headmaster.

Economics: As an active Pillar, it is most likely that Garderobe covers her living expenses. Even if retired, I doubt she would lack other backings since most students of Garderobe comes from rich or noble families. Or, she could make a business out of selling secret-photos-of-The-Kruger trading card set - and make millions.

Competition: To all guys, sorry, and we all know why. For the besotted lady however, you're in for a race. Not only will you have all of Garderobe's corals and pearls at your bay for chasing their Oneesama, but also a twofaced, obessive stalker bitch a la Tomoe who will stop at nothing to have miss Viola, willing or not, as her personal sextoy and nanny - preferably both at once. And if you do survive those trials, you'll probably have to face off with Shizuru herself to convince her that you are a much better/sexier/more sensitive choice than a certain headmaster - Kruger being her lifelong devoted love and obsession and all, this may take some time, and be prepared for major heartbreaks since she won't be short of actually having her fun with you with no emotional attachments involved. Don't expect competition from Kruger, she will be clueless to what's going on.

Warrior Skills: Again, she is a Pillar for a reason. Ask the Slave with the amazing grotch cannon.

Housekeeping Skills: Being the super efficient lady perfectionist, I can't see her failing at the tasks of running a household. Just as it is as hard to imagine her to not have servants and willing helpers to fight over the rights to do those chores for her - if you're lucky, she'll even feed you tea.

Sex: Fufufufu... If you let her ladylike demeanor trick you, you'll probably be pwned to death. She may be the epitome of feminity, but hardly your shy, submissive woman in bed. Shizuru reeks of the kind of woman who knows the whims and needs of her body well, she knows what she wants and with a little characteristic manipulation, you'll be more than happy to fill in her needs like a devoted cultist to her deity. Althou it is easy to imagine her as the dominant one, she will probably have you in the role and position she wishes for with a wink of her pinky - and stll have you screaming for more at the end.

But despite everything, Viola like her HiMe counterpart is a woman very much in love when we meet her. While I don't doubt that her mischievous nature wins out in the long run, I find it hard to say how she would act in the face of true love coming true when sex is hardly "only sex".

Father/Mother Material: A capable woman doesn't necessariy mean a great mother, a devoted yes but I've always been hesistant to fill Shizuru in as an ideal parent. With the right partner, Shizuru would love her children to death, raise them to forces to recon with and passing on as many of her assets as possible to make them ready for the world. And while she with her people reading skills would with very little problem understand the hearts of her children, it is hard to say if they would understand her as well. Having a perfect parent can be taxing in many many ways, and while she will provide with a loving childhood, it is hard to say how adolescence followed by young adulthood will be when you will want to make her proud, and maybe follow in her footsteps.

Overall: Shizuru Viola is a femme fatale of her own kind, disguised under the sophisticated manners and behaviour of your perfect, highsociety lady. Men want her, women want to be her - and want her soon as well. She is in many ways someone who is crafted to be an object of admiration and desire, which I also think she is painfully aware of. She is loved, but seldom for anything more than her image - which may be an explaination to her stubborn devotion to Natsuki, someone who simply is too honest to do anything short of appreciating her for who she really is.

Anyone who choose to chase this this lady will be in for a war, against all of Garderobe, Tomoe, Shizuru herself and finally the headmaster if she comes to her wits. No easy and painless task to overcome, but if you do and truly wins her heart, you're more or less settled for life. This is not a woman you let go of, and neither will she ever let go of you. The devotion she puts in her love is sincere and absolute, for you she will go on missions across the world, be taken hostage by enemy forces and even sleep with neurotic minors - all to keep you from harm's way.

She can even become Duran, and lick.

Now, if Kruger would just wise up.

[imperialmog]

Shigan, I should of known you were wanting to do Shizuru.......... her file that is.

i'm just waiting to see someone try to do Nagi, Shiho, or Tomoe's file. Now there are some files that woud be interesting.

[ranchan13]

Arika Yumemiyaaka Arinko (Antsy)

Looks: Well, she looks like an Ant, but she also has that energetic perky appearence to her almost all the time, unless you like her hair down, in which case she looks almost elegant and refined. By far, not the most attractive woman, nor by any means is she ugly. The most workable, and operative word for her is Cute. She also has a light inside that at times may or may not cause her hair to glow golden, obviously if you like cosplaying, dressing her up as a Super Saiya-jin might prove amusing beyond all amusement.

Personality: Energetic, bubbly, and a complete and totle ditz, yet she can be serious, depressed, and moody. She wears her emotions proudly, and will admit to them in almost any case, though even if she tries to hide them, they will bleed through. She is loyal to her friends, and an idealist who believes the world can be a peaceful place. She has a mischievious side, which shows itself when she finds a rivals weakness. She is an incredibly hard worker, and will do any job to the letter.

Intelligence: Not the brightest bulb in the box, but then again, she's not unintelligent. Naive would be the more proper term. She has a lot to learn about the world, but once that's done, she'll truely shine as she has the wisdom to know how to use the intelligence she has effectively.

Economics: She helped with the rebuilding of Windbloom's castle to help pay her tuition, though her Oji-san is supporting her fully. Econmics aren't really her worry, even though she always believes in repaying her debts

Competition: Unless there's something we don't know about her and Mashiro, there really is no competition, at least not in the anime. Sergei was for a while, but no longer. The only true competition would be her dream of being a great Otome.

Warrior Skills: Let's face it, she defeated a Harmonium imbued Nina, obviously she has skills. In fact, with nothing more then a training robe, she was able to support a rather large and heavy falling object long enough for Haruka to take over and effortlessly toss it aside. Her first Otome battle with Nina, she fought with impressive skill. With all her training, she's probably on the same level as any of the pillars, just not as polished.

Housekeeping Skills: All Otome are trained in proper housekeeping, that said, Arika is likely somewhat lacking in this area.

Sex: She knows what it is, she knows how it's done, but as with all Otome, she is inexperienced at least when it comes to men (dunno about women, you've seen how her, Nina, and Erstin act, and we all know Shizuru took a shining to her)
Training shouldn't be too difficult, but once she finds what she likes, she'll go at it with all she has

Father/Mother Material: She's kind, loving, and she's helped to raise Mashiro at times. She's the perfect motherly figure as she will find a way to relate with your children. As with all other Otome, childcare is likely taught in Galderobe. This is likely as an Otome would be given duties to protect the offspring of their rulers. As such, Arika has the skills needed to make an excellent parent, if you can convince her to give up her dream.

Overall: On paper, she almost seems too good to be true, but she would be what you made of her in a relationship. She has her strengths and weaknesses, most more pronounced then what others might expect. But in the end, she'd be a good mate if you have the energy to keep up.

[wuabbs]

Name: Sergay'Northhound'Wang
Looks: Sergay, like many other men has the ability to arouse women in a manner that other men cannot. His blonde spiky hair is alone enough to attract even the most 'up-tight' women. His calm eyes bring a feeling of trust and ease to people and one generally feels safe around him. He dresses in formal clothes with a very sexy red scarf around his neck. His dressrobe is blue and golden with a white shirt under.
Personality: Mr.Wang walks, talks and acts like a proper gentleman. He makes decisions based on the people he loves and not about himself. He is actually what might call the 'ideal' man, formally brought up as a military man ( One may guess ) he is very mentally strong, even under extreme pressure/situations.
Intelligence: S.Wang is as far as we can see, an extremely intelligent person. With the knowledge of politics,firearms,hand-to-hand combat and his general surroundings, one may ask. What does this man not know?. Even though many may want to cut his head off and burn his corpus, because of his little flings with Arika and Nina people have to realise he did what he thought was best, even though in some cases it nearly went very wrong.
Economics: Since he is working for Nagi and for his goverment, one should think he is pretty damn well financially insured. Even though he doesn't really intend to show he has alot of it, it is very clear he has since he wears expensive looking clothes, and on the side can sponser Arika as she studies at Garderobe academy
Competition: Im afraid to say that to get in bed with this man is very unlikely. At the current moment he suffers from serious amounts of amnesia and is being watched over like a new-born puppy by Nina. Attempts at declearing your love to him might be very harmful to your health. ( Sorry guys. and girls )
Warrior Skills: As a Warrior Sergay is no match for an Otome, but against normal humans his opponents have about the same amount of chance to beat him as a ferrit has to fly. An excellent marksman and virtually indestructible.
Housekeeping Skills: Sergay gives us the impression that he is a very formal man, therefore one would expect him to have a maid to do his housekeeping duties. This man's greatest battle would be the day he is facing a fierce room full of dust, with a featherduster as his only means of defense.
Sex: Sergay definately is not inexperienced with the words sex. But one may question if he has actually got to even second-base. He is obbessed about Rena and probably would not be able to undergo intercourse without thinking of her. In other words, he has meaby had some past flings in his 'career' but one would assume he has been able to finisht the 'act'.
Father/Mother Material: Sergay would probably a parent with various sides. The one side would be the 'formal' father that speaks formally to his child, and on the other side a wild man who doesn't mind adventures with his child. One could try to imagine a miny Sergay, exactly same looks just 3ft shorter. He would be an overall amazing father and parent.
Overall: Sergay aka the Northound is apart from his sex life, the perfect man( So it seems ). He simply cannot die, and there is therefore no need to worry about him when he goes out to do something dangerous. Good looking, good talking and economically fit. He is the man of some people's dreams. Im certainly going to hunt him down ( aware of the dangers of doing so ) and attempt a proprosal.

<3 Sergay 'Northound' Wang

Oh, nono, Miss. What I meant by "parent material" is "how he or she would love/care for/educate/consolidate the moral fibers of/take care of" your child as a parent."

And frankly, Mr Wong scores very high on this criteria.

And um, her transformation is frankly glorified botox and collagen, not her own natural beauty.

And even if that is the real her, 80+ year old virgin that hot: what a terrible waste.

Well, that was her own natural beauty many years ago. And she's only 65 or so, not 80+ She'd probably still look like that if she used her Robe regularly, I think the reason she doesn't is that she wants to grow old with grace.

But yeah, she is the definition of a spinster.

[wuabbs]

And even if that is the real her, 80+ year old virgin that hot: what a terrible waste.

So very true. : D


Changed the parent part.

[ashefatal]

Oh good lordy...I challenge someone to do Tomoe's xD

[Fishbait]

Definitely waiting for that one lol

[Schneizel]

Name: Tomoe Marguerite

Looks: Tomoe has ugly teal green hair that is lumped into this little spike shape off to the side. Honestly her hair looks like it's going to come and stick a spike through you. If you don't mind feeling like you're going to endure pokey death by hair, perhaps her looks will be sufficient enough for you?

Personality: Tomoe has a case of infantilism and obsessive compulsive disorder. She wants to be "goo goo" and "gah gah"'ed like a little baby, and meanwhile performs multiple megalomaniacial acts against people who stand in the way of her

Intelligence: Tomoe is 2nd to the top in her class! An excellent student, and a brillant manipulator and instiller of fear!

Economics: Tomoe is probably from a well to do family, as most girls who go to Garderobe have super $$$$$. If your name is Shizuru, Tomoe will shower you in presents and insist on paying anything. If you are not-Shizuru, Tomoe will make you pay for everything.

Competition: If your name isn't Shizuru, gtfo.

Housekeeping Skills: As a student of Garderobe, she had daily chores like "sweeping up the 200000 leaves in the lawn" all of the time! She'll be an experienced housewife, IF your name is Shizuru. If your name is NOT Shizuru, expect Tomoe to rub toothpaste over the mirrors, plug the drains, put tacks point side up in your shoes, burn your clothing...

Sex: If your name is Shizuru, Tomoe will melt like butter in your hands. If your name isn't Shizuru, prepare to have some fun BDSM time, with you on bottom and her ontop in black leather. She'll scream at you. Repeatedly. Bring earplugs?

Father/Mother Material: If your name is Shizuru, Tomoe will gladly adopt a child with you and raise them as "PROOF OF LOVE" (while wanting to be baby pampered by Mama Shizuru as well), but if you are not-Shizuru... well... good luck getting your dingy anywhere near Tomoe for baby making to begin with...

Overall: Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[Gains]

Can I do another one on Tomoe?

Tomoe Marguerite

Looks:
On first impression, she is an elegant person and would give an impression of being polite from her speech and acts. Some also mentions her legs as a great asset. Behind the outer appearance though, she would look at you fully and then describe which role are you in her grand schemes.

Personality:
Whatever you are actually doing, the most important thing when you are involved with Tomoe, always watch your back. She has been know to use a lot of underhanded means, yet you would almost never be able to trace it back to her. Most of the time, your search would end up at Miya, and you would wonder whether she is the cause behind everything. If you consistently feel like misfortunes befall you almost all the time, maybe you are already on her bad side. She is also known to snap when she is interrupted, so if you really want to be with her then be polite to her and let her take center stage.

Intelligence:
She is ranked Coral Otome number two and acts as Chie Hallard's room attendant. We can deduce that she is a brilliant person, since even if her position is gained through underhanded means, she remains unscathed in the top ranks and nobody can trace her. She is also a fast thinker, since she can identify problems through a small event (compared to Nina and her pool experience).

Economics:
It is quite unclear and there is little to no background regarding Tomoe's economic background, but as an Otome it is almost certain that she has good financial backings to be enrolled in Garderobe.

Competition:
Males would find Tomoe hard, even almost impossible to gain Tomoe's heart. She even mocked the legendary Fire Stirring Ruby on her dilemma between loving a man and reaching her dream. The first barrier that you need to overcome is her accomplice Miya Clochette. The girl from Lutetia Remus perhaps has feelings for her since she would follow all Tomoe's orders, although we may consider this a one-sided love. The major obstacle you will be getting is in the form of the Third Column, Meister Shizuru Viola. Tomoe is deeply in love with her, even since Shizuru's student days (makes you imagine what Shizuru actually done to an unconscious chibi Tomoe to make her evolve from a fan into a part time, then full time obsessed psycho lesbian) and she will kill to own the Graceful Amethyst for herself. The problem is if you try to drive Shizuru away from her, Tomoe would misunderstand your attempt as advancing to Shizuru which leads you to her kill list. That is however, if she doesn't love you.

Warrior Skills:
From her Otome battles, we can see that she often attacks unsuspecting enemies. Though is not an act of chivalry, it is in her mind as all's fair in love and war, and her coral battle performance shows that she's weaker when attacked head-on (although we need to also consider her opponent Arika Yumemiya as a fast learner and good fighter and she finished third in Coral). Her weakness is that she seems to toy around with her opponent too much, and that leads to many interruptions. She can also snap during battle, making her lose any strategy and attacks people head-on regardless of strength and weakness and she is impossible to stop at this state.

Housekeeping Skills:
As impossible as it may seem, she can create a luxury dinner in an unknown forest, complete with table set and candles. While not doing work though, she can always count on Miya to do everything else.

Sex:
There are two extremes regarding sex with Tomoe. If she considered you as weak-minded/inferior, prepare to be fully under control from start to finish and she will have the final say in everything. If you can claim her heart though, you might find it hard to believe the foreplay. You see, Tomoe has been violated through gentle means by her coral friends (on the order of her onee-sama Chie) and she suffers from infantilism. In short, baby fetish where she likes to be treated as a baby. She will, though, assign you as her permanent baby-sitter and there is no escape. So the bottom line is, if it comes to sex then just hope that she provides unlimited Internet access in your permanent confinement inbetween the bouts.

Father/Mother Material:
She might possibly make a good mother, considering she can understand what a baby needs. Might be problematic to you though, since there is a possibility that you need to take care of one extra baby (thanks to Chie). Also be prepared to stay at home, since her love to you would also seal you completely in your home because if she loves you then you are completely hers.

Overall:
If you can convince her that there is another person that she can love other than Shizuru which is you, then you are both lucky and unlucky. She will love you more than anything else in the world perhaps to the point of Fujino Shizuru's love to Kuga Natsuki. Her intelligence and politics can means success in her job after Garderobe days. On the downside however, prepare to be stripped of virtually all freedom that you currently have. She is always in control of everything, and that includes you so be prepared to do household chores while she goes to work. Don't even think of going with anybody else though, since she will definitely teach you who owns who in a hard way. After all, love conquers everything (read: she conquers you), right?

[DannoHung]

Can someone PLEASE explain what the hell Chie did to Tomoe? I've heard mention of something from a Drama CD, but no one's ever elaborated on it.

[Ronin Aquila]

YOU ROCK GAINS!!

Of course you can do your own interpretation of same characters!! It's actually encouraged to see how broad points of views are across the forums.
