Does anybody remember that old site, 'Guess The Dictator or Sitcom Character'? It kind of got hijacked with everybody, ever. Now somebody's made an awesome version! I thought I'd really, really test it, and it got both Inspector Gesicht from the manga 'Pluto' (recent, relatively obscure, very, very enigmatic character) and Leisel Meminger from the novel 'The Book Thief,' despite the fact that I haven't even finished the book yet, and had to opt out of a few questions.

THAT IS SO COOL.

Update: It also managed Jacuzzi Splot (a minor 'Baccano!' character), but not Rosalie Lamorlière, a minor 'Rose of Versailles' character who was written out for being boring several decades ago. I started to lose faith when it didn't get Rikichi, who is (in my mind) the second most minor Bleach character to have a speaking part, but, incredibly, got Gunji from 'Togainu no Chi,' a manga which has such a small fandom that I can't pirate it. :D

Well, it got Wotan... (Odin) for me, so far...

ETA: And the master from Dr. Who, on the second go around...

And Tachikoma from Ghost in the Shell, both after ony 20 questions...

I tried Erda (Urdr, though actually Jord), from the Ring as well, and it gave me Freya, Fricka and Hela before I told him to stop. That's still pretty close...

This morning it took about eight questions to get the UK as he appears in Axis Powers Hetalia. It sort of went... Are you an adult male? Do you have black hair? Do you have blonde hair? Are you European? Are you English? (The UK is represented by England, just like Italy is represented by North Italy, and has the other countries as different aspects or brothers). Do you live in England? Do you fight? Did you take part in WWII?

It was CRAZY. Also it got the Luggage very quickly. :P

This site is pretty amazing. :D

I decided to try a semi-historical figure and it hasn't gotten it yet, 30 questions in. I dunno if it even will. Bluebeard isn't....well-known, amazingly enough.
