While the overall application so far was good, we would like to request an extended personality sample. We would like a little more insight into Ryoko's character and her personality points. For example, how her sole purpose is to watch Haruhi Suzumiya and how she pushed Kyon to try and talk to Haruhi to make her easier to observe— which came across as being concerned about Haruhi distancing herself from the rest of the class. Other points to expand on would include how her cheerful personality never falters and the reasons/implications behind that— including that she does not understand the heavy concept of death.
If you respond to this comment with your revisions, we'll look them over ASAP! You'll have until 08/06.
[ Personality ] : The Integrated Data Sentient Entity has had a strong interest in humans, with Haruhi Suzumiya being one of it's main focuses, and has sent many Humanoid Interfaces to Earth simply to observe them. In the case of Yuki Nagato and Ryoko Asakura? They were sent to observe Haruhi Suzumiya herself and in Asakura's case she was the one closest to Haruhi just by being in the same class but sadly? She did not end up being the closest since Yuki had ended up in the SOS Brigade.
Observing humans, and Haruhi in particular, is the Entity's main purpose simply because it has reached it evolutionary peak. It felt humans could help it over-come that, and Haruhi mostly due to her having released a large data-burst 3-4 years in the past. But since the Entity isn't capable of communicating with humans it made the Interfaces and all of the ones that are shown in canon have some... problems. Yuki is incapable of expressing emotions, Emiri Kimidori is a sociopath and Asakura? Well she can express emotions like a normal human, ranging from happiness to sadness, but she seems to be stuck in her cheerful mood when doing some horrible things. Like trying to kill Kyon.
She is a sweet and kind girl, which gained her popularity among her classmates thus getting her the position of her class rep. She also took notice of how Haruhi spoke to no one in their class until Kyon started talking to her and then trying to encourage Kyon to help Haruhi open up, showing concern for the other girl and claiming that it might be a good thing for Kyon to go along with Haruhi's shenanigans if it'll help. Which actually had the ulterior motive of making Haruhi easier for her to observe.
But that wasn't enough, as the lack of anything happening lead to Asakura taking a more radical stance and lead to her cheerfully trying to kill Kyon. When Kyon, understandably, states he doesn't want to be killed, Asakura replies that she doesn't understand why he doesn't want to die. Since his death would create an observable reaction that the Entity could possibly learn from. Although that did not end well, what with Asakura ending up being removed from Earth by Yuki, Asakura remained cheerful even as she "died". Even going so far as telling Kyon to enjoy his time with Haruhi and to watch out for others like her. Heck, the reason why "death" is something she doesn't quite get is because for Asakura? As long as Yuki exists she will exist.
