Gintama Permissions | Luceti

[gin_san]

Gintama, as a canon, is a very fourth-wall breaking canon -- its characters generally know all about all things Japanese culture related (video games, anime/manga, movies, celebrities, etc.) as well as big American movies/celebrities as well. The characters in Gintama also know that they are characters, and regularly talk about their author, Sorachi Hideaki, and/or Sunrise, who produces the anime.

Below is a handy little form for fourth wall permissions for the Gintama cast at Luceti!

<b>Character Name:</b> <b>Canon:</b> <B>Can we fourth-wall you?</b> Y/N (Feel free to also let us know how much you are willing to be fourth-walled -- completely, partially, etc.) <b>How can we contact you?</b> <b>IF YOU SAID YES TO FOURTH-WALLING...</b> <b>Link to your character's app or wiki:</b> <b>Are there any specific things you'd like to be fourth-walled?</b> <b>Can we fourth-wall by saying Luceti is a roleplay game?</b> <B>IF YOU SAID NO TO FOURTH WALLING...</B> <b>Are you open to us completely bleeping out canon/character names/genre/type?</b> (This is where the characters might mention something like, "Ah! You're Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z, that awesome manga!" and it comes out like "Ah! You're <i>BEEP</i> from <i>BEEP BEEP BEEP</i> that awesome <i>BEEP</i>" and your character literally hears beeps in lieu of those words.) <b>Are you open to us having our characters recognize yours in prose but not break fourth wall for any number of IC reasons?</b> <b>Can we have our characters say Luceti is a roleplay game and have your character think they're crazy or whatever?</b>


*Note: Our characters most likely will fourth-wall themselves/their own canon (Gintama)

IF YOU SAID NO TO FOURTH WALLING...
Are you open to us completely bleeping out canon/character names/genre/type? I think I'd be okay with genre or canon coming up in this case (he dresses like a JRPG/Tales of character, it's hard to miss) but everything else, no.
Are you open to us having our characters recognize yours in prose but not break fourth wall for any number of IC reasons? This I'm okay with! An IC reason could easily be that Ion is from a series dealing with replicas and existential crises, so clearly he's got enough to worry about without finding out he's fictional.

Awesome! Sounds good. :) We will definitely work this into our gameplay & look forward to playing with you. \o/

Oh, one last question!

Can we have our characters say Luceti is a roleplay game and have your character think they're crazy or whatever?

[distressedude]

That's fine! Ion will just be confused what they mean, while Kari will try and convince them it's the real deal here (and since Gintama likely exists in her world, she might throw in a quip about Shounen Jump never approving a cross-over of this magnitude).

And Gintoki would counter and say of course they wouldn't, that's why we have these things called muns who are worse than Shueisha and gorilla authors.
