Quick note: I wasn't really aiming, as mentioned, to have people answer the last 4 of 6 questions I posed in the form they were in, but I'll post the questions and and answers in their current form, the phrasing was more about protecting ambiguous cases and I was hoping someone who got the genre better would be able to supply those, so I will include in green a brief 'what I'm getting at' for each question, and I'll answer them myself as well in their original form.

1. Are you an anime character?

Yes - ?, Beetnemsis, Darth Katie, Fox and Ravens, Isaac, Ranagrande

2. Are you, yourself, knowledgeable of anime, on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being 'what's anime?' and 10 being the anime equivalent of 'In episode 6, season 2 of Space Trek Captain Smith clearly hits the wrong sequence of keys to talk to the Engineer Murphy on the intercom', in other words, 9-10 would be übergeek with focus on anime.

? - 2
Beetnemesis - 4 to 5
Darth Katie - 3
Fox and Ravens - 2
Isaac - 3
Ranagrande 4.2

3. Are you blatantly good or more grey-to-evil?
The purpose of this question, really, is pretty straight forward, but I'd been aiming for more of a 'Yes if pretty reasonably good, no otherwise, no for outright evil, morally gray, or a particularly mud or blood stained white' but I have no frame of reference for anime, which in my limited experience tends to be a bit bloodier than, say, superman I don't know where your typical anime hero stands on the whole Jedi - Sith spectrum.

? - I guess I would say indifferent(?)
Beetnemesis - I'm good
Darth Katie - Definitely grey
Fox and Ravens - Well, this is very debatable. I would say he's good from what I've watched in the anime but he's also the antagonist so my answer would be right in the middle grey.
Isaac - I think I'm good, my eyes keep glazing every time I try to read my wiki bio
Ranagrande - Yes Was not actually a yes/no question

4. Are you mostly human male, or human female, or other?
I'm aware anime features a pretty broad range of settings and I'm loosely asking people here for animal, mineral, vegetable, I'd say when in doubt go with other but I didn't want people to feel obliged to go 'other' if they were, say, a marvel comics 'mutant' or other because they have a cyborg arm, at the same time, I don't want someone to answer other than 'other' for their robot who yearns to be human, but LotR's Aragorn, for instance is part elf, and you can start a geek war over that comment, but human male or other are both fairly legit

? - Human Male
Beetnemesis - human female
Darth Katie - Female, not exactly human
Fox and ravens - Human Male
Isaac - Human female
Ranagrande - Yes Again, was not actually a yes/no question

5. Are you essentially from a 'modern setting'?
We've dealt with this one before You know what I mean, let's not have any 'Unsure, I star in a reality TV show' answers please

Beetnemsis - Yes
Darth Katie - Yes
Fox and Ravens - Yes
Isaac - Yes
Ranagrande - Yes

6. Is your character basically matched to your abilities? vanilla should yes
We did this last game, everyone said yes and it was true, this is really the same question 'answering no only if there is a major discrepancy' kind of thing

? - Yes
Beetnemesis - Yes
Darth Katie - Yes
Fox and Ravens - Yes
Isaac - Yes
Ranagrande - Yes
