Unfortunately, we're going to have to decline this application.
This is not due to the AU nature of the app; but rather to the fact that the app describes a character who does not seem to match Mako Tsunami/Ryota Kajiki in temperament. An open, friendly (if outspoken) character who was no less even-tempered and no more smug than most other melodramatic duelists is described having an excess/opposite of those traits; and his personality section does not mention his boisterous confidence, nor his fixation on searching for his father, a major element (perhaps the single defining element) of his characterization in the series. While some of this might be explicable due to the AU nature of the character, none of these changes are detailed as 'points of departure.'
Since your description of the character does seem to match the character as you have written him, just not as the series wrote him, we cannot accept this version of Mako. You are still more than welcome to apply at Synodiporia with any other character in a future application round. Thank you for taking the time to apply.
