From the lovely ladies in the Occult Research Club set:Asia, Akeno, Rias, Koneko, Xenovia I claim the right to a sixth waifu.
I don't know if this has been talked about yet, but the "Ladies of the Occult Research Club" set isn't complete yet, unless we are talking about just the anime.
Spoiler:
I could argue its the set that are students at the school and are of the "chess" pieces.
There is not such thing as an Ace in chess and Rossweisse is a teacher
and Ravel is technically a student but if you go off the basis of the Anime she wouldnt be in the ORC, yet
If we go strictly based on Season 1 of the Anime - we have collected everyone and then some, since Xenovia was introduced in season 2
And rossweisse hasnt been included just yet (or i dont believe so)
regardless it's up to ruling by pumpjack - if so my claim would be invalid.
Well as pump just said go by whats recent
For this case, it isn't just about what's recent. It's more of if you have to take the LN into consideration, even though the anime is so far behind. And to be completely honest, the LN was more recently updated than the anime.
I think Jack's rule about recent things is precisely to prevent this kind of thing. essentially the medium that has gotten the least far in terms of story almost always takes precedence.

Well it's all up to pumpjack. The set of Anime Season 1 is complete.
In season 2 it would only be Irina in question because the other 2 have not turned yet...or maybe my memory is wrong.
If we need all the girls of the ORC as far as the LN goes then so be it.
But then that means a lot of other sets can be questioned that have already been claimed under the same argument of what is "recent"
You still have a valid point regardless, so we'll see what the ruling is.

Yes and no.
The main reason why I'm going with most recent iterations is because- for the most part- it's somewhat unreasonable to expect everyone to have watched/played/read all of a franchise across all its mediums. It's the distinction between casual, hardcore, and diehard fans.
And so- by going with the most recent incarnation of a series- it allows for more people to jump in on a potential set, since more people would know of it.
I will admit that I failed to take into account the chronological differences that would affect potential sets. One medium may be further along into the story, and thus have different members join/leave/die/temporary alliance/etc. of a particular set.
In which case- we'll just go by the most recent. At least for this game.
And in which I am incredibly thankful that very few people are making claims in western media (stuff like the X-Men would be fucking hellish to try and sort out).

So, do we take this as you saying the set is complete based off of the anime? Or...?

My heart tells me.....I want tacos.....
but I would vote for anime since I doubt any of the other people who claimed in the set are up to date fully on the LN.

My heart is as black as night, so it's telling me the LN. :3
But no... it's fine either way since I already have my 6th slot and didn't claim anyone from Highschool DxD. After all, I was just trying to find out if the ORC set was to be based off of the anime or LN.

Well, Jack has allowed various subsets too, so season 1 and 2 sets should hopefully both be okay as well.

I haven't seen any claims from same sources as mine so far. 6th slot seems quite unlikely for me at this time. :D

Maybe I can introduce tiers.
-Panty and Stocking(2+) - Easy. +1 Waifu
-Amagami(6+) - Normal. +1Waifu. +1Reclaim next game.
-Negima(30+) - Hard. +2Waifus. +1Reclaim next game.
-Touhou(Idon'tfuckingknow+) - Expert. +3Waifus. +2Reclaims next game. NTR Capability.
I'm putting entirely too much thought into this, aren't I.

So, with those on 5 with more characters for a set what if a single user claims two of the characters?

A single user can claim half of the group (though I'm not sure how odd numbers round). A single user can have 2 or 3 of the needed claims to form a group of 5, depending on the rounding Jacky decides, but either way, it's still at least 2.
