The rules of the tournament
Brief introduction to "Thank You For Existing"
CHARACTER BIOS BELOW
Yuni Yoshinaga
“My name is Yuni Yoshinaga, and I don’t really exist.”
Born a timid, sweet, and quiet boy, Yuni was quickly mistreated for his rare heart-shaped pupils. To avoid abuse, he donned the personality mask of “The Demon Delinquent”. Years later, a major accident occurred. Yuni was medically mistaken for Mizuki Fujisaki, a well-liked girl with the same eye condition. Feeling finally free, Yuni dubbed “his” true self as “The Girly Force” to those aware while stepping into the role. Yet Yuni couldn’t shake off the “Demon Delinquent” personality mask. Why? He doesn’t actually exist…right? Yuni is the main character of TYFE.
Primary Inspiration: Masashi Rando from Pretty Face (And Chihiro Fujisaki from DR)
Plural or Plural Adjacent?: Plural

Pan Kokoro
“I’m Non-Canon and I’m proud!”
Kokoro is your typical filler character; Never appeared in a single chapter of her source, and only a single episode of the show adaptation. The problem therein lies that the peppy girl exists inside the main character’s mind, Pan Yu. Brought to the front just a couple of weeks before the series’s canonical ending, Yu’s wedding, Kokoro is determined to find the space where she fits in best! Can she assert her existence with so many people insisting she’s just a delusional Yu, including Yu’s fiance Bow Botella? Whatever the case is, she’s surprisingly comfortable in both forms she has. Pan Kokoro is the main character of TYFE part 4: Filler Turf.
Primary Inspiration: “The Girl” from the anime of Ranma ½

Maya St. Fleur
“I’m Maya St. Fleur, and I’m gonna blow your mind!”
An ex-demolition woman turned psychic therapist (and a zombie descendant), Maya is employed by a recap therapy organization. Despite this, she’s actually never faced her past grief of losing several close people, choosing to forget instead. Trouble strikes when she needs to attend her own recap therapy, due to an actual total memory loss accident caused by Yuni. With slightly different circumstances, will Maya finally build on her past events? Or simply continue to demolish what shaped her...? Maya is the main character of TYFE Part 1: That’s Life.
Primary Inspiration: Razputin Aquato from Psychonauts.
Plural or Plural Adjacent?: Adjacent

Jilly Bean
“I do not feel emotions. I hope that this does not cause you distress of any kind.”
Appearing quite emotionless at first glance, Jilly Bean is actually a severely self destructive individual focused on others first. Much of this stems from her assuming she fakes all of her emotions, when in reality she’s an undiagnosed system with one low emotion alter. She has a tendency of intervening with stories she feels demonizes someone unfairly. This need to be someone else’s anchor has led her into much trouble; the lemon coloring on her body is actually scar tissue for example. With the loss of one reformed villain turned friend, Shirley A. Gonna, Jilly’s low emotion alter gets front stuck, worsening her mindset. She is a recurring character in TYFE.
Primary Inspiration: Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece

“I never thought about just getting the filler over with…Can you bash my head against that rock, by any chance?”
Pan Yu is a serious, icy glared guy, who's been “blessed” to turn into a girl when in contact with hot water. Yu's source was the protag of a crime romcom, engaged to a Yakuza heir. Finally a few weeks from the end of the series, his wedding, Yu’s terribly anxious. Only one source story hasn’t happened yet, filler where a bash to his girl form head convinces him he really IS a girl. He can’t let that happen during his wedding! Because... he just can't! With accidental convincing from Yuni, he decides to jumpstart the process. It should only last a day or two! …Right? (Sound of eggs cracking in the distance)
Primary Inspiration: Kazama Kiryu from the Yakuza series.

Teena Meenie
“After all, I’m the main character! The amazing Teena!”
Teena is a short but effective medic, who’s recently found herself in an adventurous party fighting a dragon cult. She has a huge ego, only outsized by her backpack. She requests her “sister” Gina make candy with her face on them. She typically hides her alter Gina and her past, so as-to not ruin her public image. In reality, Teena’s dissociation all stems from a dragon attack done on her childhood home, ending the lives of her birth parents and scarring her face. And with Gina having more memories of the incident than her, Teena tries to suppress the idea she’s not the original.

Bow Botella
“How do you like my trans gender head cannons?”
Bow Botella is the bigender, latino secondary protagonist of Pan Yu’s story, and set to marry him in a few weeks. They have a habit of drinking genderfluid boba tea, and can even fire the boba pearls out of cannons from their hair ship. With a girl suddenly in control of their husband’s mind and body, they’re trying to splash some sense into her to wake him up (And get Yu’s body back!) Bow seems to be struggling with the idea that Kokoro might be a different person in Yu. No Yu, not you. Interesting, considering the ‘shipmates’ they have working in their ship in a bottle hair. Bow is also the heir to a nautical themed yakuza organization. Go figure.
