Interesting. I’ve actually had her sitting on my to-claim list since I first started playing this game. 2013. Totally not too late at all LOL

Round 511
Thanks to a conversation with Wicca, I noticed that this cutie hadn’t been claimed either…
Today I select Miss Monochrome from Miss Monochrome The Animation!
A long story short.
At my old store there was a crew member who used to chat with me about anime. Every couple of conversations he would talk about a certain program, and beg me to watch it. I made a promise to him that as soon as I could locate it, I would watch it. The problem with that is it’s a fairly older anime, and it’s only released on VHS and DVD, which in turn may be a DVD-R (I honestly don’t know…). However, very fortunately, this last week a new streaming service opened up and I was finally able to see it! I automatically fell in love with the lead character and, low and behold, she isn’t claimed either!
Round 512
This week, I claim the cute lead of a very classic anime: Eiko Magami from Project A-KO!
More Pics!

Today is April 5th. 10 years ago today was the very first round of Claim Your Bishoujo/Bishounen! - The Reboot. We made it to 10 years! Newshawk has been running this game for a long, long time now. And it will NEVER. END. So happy birthday to CYB/B!
This game has been going for 10 years. 512 rounds. That’s a lot of rounds. I’ve been updating the lists (sorta-kinda) since round 88. In Kompozer. Every claim. By hand. In triplicate. You’re welcome. Of course, we ditched the character list a while back, so now I only have to do it twice. Even so, twice is still a lot! So I guess go me as well!
Still, even though it’s only two lists now, it’s still a huge pain in the ass to do all that copying and pasting of links and such.
Now, with this being such an auspicious occasion and all, there’s something we need to talk about… something… special…
Obviously, we have to pay our respects to the original creator of this game, @Mystic. Without Mystic, this game wouldn’t exist, so even though his version of the game didn’t really take off the way this one did, and of course, he doesn’t come around here anymore, I think it’s still important that we remember the game’s roots by thanking Mystic. So… Thanks Mystic! Good work!
Okay, okay, for real now though, you’re probably all wondering if there shouldn’t have been a special round for this, and you’re right, there should be, but you know what? THERE ISN’T! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
There will be though… probably.
You see… Since Newshawk had done the 500th round special round, he said to me that I should come up with the 10th anniversary round, but I was all like “That’s a whole lot of responsiblity, I don’t know if I can handle that much pressure!” (aka: I don’t feel like it, you do it).
So, Newshawk will be doing a special round for the 10 year anniversary, but it will be whenever Newshawk gets around to it.
(Get it? aROUND to it!? Because it’s a special round, and he’s gonna get around… nevermind)
So, sit tight, keep safe, and celebrate 10 years of CYB/B! Alone.
Okay, it’s 5:30am, I’m going to bed.
This has been going on for 10 years? Damn!
Round 512
This dude is badass!

…which I guess someone decided should be called Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater.
Only my version of the game. The game I took over actually started in November of 2009 by the gone but not forgotten (by those of us who have been here that long) Mystic. He ceded ownership to me in March of 2010 and I gave all the then-current players a chance to pick their top three claims to keep when the game relaunched the next month. I figured that by limiting the number of carried over claims new players wouldn’t feel discouraged and would be more willing to join us. Here it is ten years later and new players come along all the time, as witnessed by you.
Round 512
Working from home can be so disorienting! I completely misses the last round, so I’m behind in my claims. Therefore, I want to wrap up one collection from the Winter 2020 season. Therefore, this week I claim the haughty but entertaining Rikekuma from Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It (AKA Rike Koi ):
I liked her design from the trailers, and after watching the first episode, she immediately was on my had to try to claim list!
Round 513
Crunchyroll uses a different spelling of her name, but it uses the same annunciation.
The girl who was reincarnated into the world of an otome game as the lead vilian! Who is trying her best to not get exiled or murdered! And unintentionally tripping all the (not originally from the game) love flags towards her, including yuri ones!
Katarina (CR: Catarina) Claes (aka Bakarina) from My Next Life As A Villainess: All Routes Lead To Doom!
