This is something that I've been thinking about for awhile. When timewise would you like the arc to start? I'm thinking grade 9/10, aka early highschool. This would give the girls the time to blossom fully, have downtime and do whatever they want. I'm also aiming for a fall/winter timeframe, roughly, since I'm tired of heat.
Thoughts?
Winter of grade 10 sounds good!
This is honestly about right for me, giving even Hotaru enough time to grow up quite a bit.
2.5 years and we should all be pretty grown up enough.
And winter > summer, yes.
Having it over Autumn/Winter works for me, since arc 1 neatly covered Spring and Summer.
As for the actual time, yes, high school is a must. The added bonus of having it start in Autumn means we can do Athletics and Cultural Festivals before things get too serious and we invariably drop out of school.
Plus it just generally means that we'll be playing generally more mature (in every way!) characters, and we can hit on all the usual high school anime cliches more easily.
edit: Also, keeping it in first year of high school ensures certain NPCs (Hi, Unazuki-chan!) will still be in school themselves.
Winter of grade 10 seems to be a go. This, off the top of my head, puts you around your sweet 16s, girls. Laggy/Hal, decide if you want to be in the same year as the girls or one up/under.

I'm going to give out two skills of your choice for minor buffing and polish. Most have said that you want to upgrade your minor abilities and vanity like Apperances, so feel free. When you get to it, post the changes in this topic so I can see them. Also, if you have unspent points like Kotono, feel free to spend them now.
These are really meant to be general finishing/polishing points and not 'rawr super powerup', so please bear that in mind. This group is more than capable already.
---
If you want to mess with EC applicatations, TP, flying or whatever, poke me and we'll do that in the ample downtime you have. Mako-chan, you wanted to mess with TP with Hotaru-chan, so you two poke me when you're good since I have to be around for that.
---
Laggy and Hal, go ahead and get your sheets together and fully buffed. I'll get to final approvals soon so we can get rolling. Both of you have done a lot of good brainstorming of EC and power applications, so make sure to have all that in order.
---
Go ahead and dream up how cute/pretty/sexy you are now, ladies. I'll make a point for you to get to show off a bit early on that you've finally matured(And grown breasts, too!). I know a few of my girls can't wait. <_<
If this turns into a breast size feud, I'll cheerfully strangle people. >_> They're all going to be nice and suiting. Really!
Grade 10 for me, but Takeshi will be a year older due to being held back a year, so likely 16-17 for age (thinking of an early November birthday, haven't nailed that down yet).
While I'm not sure about bumping up my appearance so that I rival Serenity already, I can't let that skank Rei beat me...
So I'll bump up appearance and buy off my easily distracted defect.
Usagi can remain endearingly clumsy until she graduates.
Uh, I have nothing really to add to the discussion.
>.>;
Uh, yay boobs?
I already pretty much discussed and decided when Hotaru's body limiter would be lifted, so...
Reiko Jr.? I think so.
That's a double tap to Appearance, btw.
Who's laughing now, Mai?! O_O
Kotono has sunk her two end poitns into Apperance.
Of her leftover points, one went into Apperance out of pure vanity and the other into Energy Bonus.
The NPCs posted won't be changed, since most of them were slightly tweaked up already on being posted.
Rei spends one point on apperance and one TBD.

Added, Hot-chan. Quote edited for truth.
Oh, I forgot one.
More letters from Gaia. Remind me if I forget.
Usagi's boyfriends can be outlined OOC as much as Makoto's sempai ever was - I just want it established that she didn't spend two years as a single girl.
Also, Usagi's part time job needs to be established. Again can do this OOC, though.
Um, yeah. Beyond that not much. I guess I could learn a magic trick or two from Jun or Serenity (food creation and disguise magic sans pen come to mind).
That's about all I've got for prepwork.
Echoing. Food and disguises were interests of Hotaru as well, but y'know.
Teleport learnage!
Also, I'd like to learn other Magic stuff...Jun Promised to show me food stuff, too!

Okay. I wanna at least have a good chat about the boyfriend stuff, but I'll get together with you on that later.
Heh, I just had a real Tokyo Mew Mew moment. Since Yohko's is expanding, can you imagine Usagi as a waitress there as well?
Yeah, a few odds and ends from Jun and Serenity are needed. They're in the misc stuff.

Okay! Will do.

Okay again. Jun'll have to appear on camera again, I see. I'll work it out.
Last call for suggestions or issues before Arc 2.
Void magic - I wanna be a super-ninja!
Teleporting groups - Gnaw on Jun
Teleportation following elemental paths (I want to go this far down this river's path...)
Void trick from omakes with my glaive.
Other than that...well, we need to plot out my whole dating life AFTER the start of arc 2, because it's highly dependant on Yoshi and all.
I did want to visit hospitals and the like, though I'm going to be discreet and light touch on it.
Or the ideas of having Chikako call me in the msot dire emergencies possible...mah.

Yeah. We'll finish up Yoshi first and see wehre you stand Thursday night or Friday, then put our heads together.

Like when she has an itch down there that just HAS to be touched, licked, held and scratched, huh?!

Pervtasia. Besides, Chikako is Reiko's.
Really linked to the hospital things, but you probably knew that. >_> Though I'm nto against ending bank robberies and the like!
No, I honestly didn't put them together. I suck.
That reminds me. I keep smacking you about the hero thing, and you keep ignoring me. ;-;
Quote from: Bean BanditThat reminds me. I keep smacking you about the hero thing, and you keep ignoring me. ;-;
We started that and we'll continue it early on, Mako-chan. You were in the papers!
Random bump/reminder for myself and Hotaru: Add your romantic roundup to your sheet soon. I'm going to be annoyed if we forget.
