Difficult. I had... Hoped to use Akihara, Neneko's challenges as a way to gather data, however, I was only able to locate them when they were dueling twice-- it doesn't show much concerning them, but... |\;;;;

I am at least able to state my thoughts towards who I have been able to see, especially while observing from a distance.

For instance, Susan DeRay. They seem rather... Unstable. Over-confident, perhaps, as well. Their tactics in dueling are skilled, yes, but they seem to carry a sense of overkill, as a result, with their Tempest Magician burn. She is able to react fairly quick to actions, however... At least in duels.

However, the noted instability would make me contemplate concerning how well she'd be for this.

Then there's Jeanette Dianne Grave... I have no idea whether to pity her, or not. Strong with psychics, but... She's timid. Painfully so. |\; Her and her opponent at last note, Akihara, Neneko themselves... Listening to them stutter equally would make one grimace. As a result, she's a rather hesitant girl when it comes to her own moves, and spacey. I believe that during the duel, she once attempted to sacrifice one monster for a level 8, without a special effect... But I'm unsure, it was what I had heard. It makes me worry about her skill, however, considering she's also a Pro League member.

I think if she were to hold any responsibility past that, however, she should learn to not be so timid, and to pay more attention. She could be very easily tricked.

Akihara, Neneko... She is less qualified than Jeanette Dianne Grave would be, in comparison. She had lost both of her duels against the two mentioned above, using dragons-- Five God Dragon seemed to be the trump, itself, that she was able to use against Jeanette Dianne Grave... However, she lost fairly easily, despite such a strong monster.

As I mentioned before, as well, she was rather timid. And also... ... Cute, I guess the word would be. It looked as though she had been attempting to act angry, especially in the duel against Susan DeRay, but it more came off as surprisingly... Pathetic, as her own appearance, traits, and stature did nothing to help such a odd attempt.

... Give me a moment, and I'll continue. This will not all fit.

I have been able to take note of others, as well. Corvus Adams...

An interesting sort of girl. Rather conflicting in her actions and speech, especially towards others. Uses spirits, but... Her first duel that I was able to witness had flaws, concerning her skill. But she seems to at least hold some dedication. I will have to find other times when she is dueling, in order to study further.

Jeanette "Dianne" Grave... It's hard to keep track of their personalities. Spirits. Evil Heroes. Frogs. Mill. Spirits seem to be rather efficient, as well as Evil Heroes-- I can't say much concerning the latter two decks, or the latter two altogether. But I can at least state things about them.

Both the personalities named "Dianne" and "Victoria" are inherently selfish. Especially the one named "Dianne", who seems to have suffered a recent change. They both would be preferably... Unfit for any sort of heroism, unless if their selfishness can be described as at least focusing on protecting something as a whole, to the point where they would be willing to take part in such actions. However, considering recent actions, it looks more that it would not be the case, focusing on the former. I may just focus on the personality of "Victoria", as there might be some hope, considering it.

You said you wanted me to keep tabs on Samasu, Saikou, correct?

They are definitely "unstable". They seem to keep claiming that someone has been harassing them, without giving any definitive traits. Yelling. Reacting wildly to statements. Easily angered and bothered. Selfish, egotistical.

However, they can be a strong duelist, but they lack in consistency, concerning their own duels. While according to records, they have been able to promote to Obelisk Blue, it looks as though they had to take a second duel, just to achieve the promotion, having lost easily beforehand.

They are fairly confident, despite that, however... Also worrisome, concerning their actions. I remember seeing them enter the forest a couple days back, shortly after their duels were done to promote, after making a post about their taking time off. It makes me wonder why someone who would be claiming to be ill would do that. |\;; However, they do not seem like the sort who would be appropriate... But I'll keep watch on them, once I'm able to relocate them.

Hikari, Hoshi has been noted, as well... Powerful. Strange in her tactics. But... Apparently she's suffered from a lack of intelligence, at recent? That worries me. She seems to have discarded common logic, as a result of it, and while a lack of intelligence is one thing, being at the point where apparently, she attempts to literally consume books, it... Makes me worry about her continued skill, or even position. Considering how she has been acting at recent... She might be unable to even face anything that might come. |\;;;

... I should probably send a proper list of notes, when I gather more data on the other students that would be applicable, considering this. I'm taking up too much space, as it is. |\;

So you would state, for tl;dr purposes, the test subjects are emotionally and mentally unstable, or extremely timid/flighty?

Yes, basically. |/;;;

Considering Yuuki, Juudai's state, especially at the end of his time as a student in the Duel Academia, one might say that mental instability would not be a issue, with what you might want. However, a couple may border on being potentially dangerous overall, as a result of their own instabilities.

Those who are timid and flighty... Could be worked with, in comparison, but it makes it difficult to expect that they would be much help against anything.

Any suggestions as to what sort of stimulus would be considered adequate at helping or inspiring reactions and or mental states as to the project's intended objective?

Stimulation of protective instincts, or at least self-survival, might help those who might be timid or flighty. The ability to discern if something might be worth protecting, might motivate them into taking action, much like he would have with anyone. |\;;;

It might also apply to those who are... Selfish, however, they might also choose to not do anything, for their own worth.

As for those with instability issues... It is hard to suggest. Perhaps my suggestions would work, but they might be unpredictable to the point where they might not react as suspected.

At the least, some positive reinforcement for quite a few of them, if they do move forward, towards the intended objective, might help to inspire such reactions repeatedly. |\

And suggested positive reinforcement?

Unsure, specifically. It all would vary to the person, themselves.

Letting them feel a sense of accomplishment, or at least a sense of security as a result, might help them to become more comfortable with such reactions. |\;

Thank you, Umu.

I will be compensating you besides the research, most desirably.

Would a toilet made of solid gold suffice?

... I appreciate the offer, but I'm going to have to decline. There is no need to compensate me for this, regardless. |\;;;;;;

It is just what I enjoy doing, even if it is difficult to find opportune moments to research them effectively.
