Character Appearances

This is an attempt to count all the appearances of all the characters in the comic in a manner similar to that used by the database found at Ookii.org which now updates once per storyline. It is also an attempt to make all the comic transcripts searchable which was partially achieved using the Oh No Robot comics search but that only covers 211 strips. This project started on October 30, 2011. If you would like to help but are not sure how, see the talk page for suggestions. Note: Due to the size of the database, changes may take some time to appear. The "jobs" number here gives a rough metric of this.

What constitutes an appearance?

In this database a character is considered to have appeared if he or she is at least partially visible in one of the panels, or has off-screen dialogue. Appearances in fantasy sequences, thought-bubbles are also counted, as well as silhouetted appearances (if it is known for certain who the obscured character was). This includes appearances in small pictures or sketches if a character is identified later to be in them or if there is little doubt about it.

Minor characters who have an entry on the Minor characters page are included on the comparison tables. Characters that don't meet this criteria can still be listed under the "Cast Appearing" section on the transcript pages and their appearances can be listed below.

Number of Appearances Comparison

Note:Due to database limitations a comparison table with all the characters cannot be kept up to date with the rest of the database automatically, in its entirety and as a single whole. However, if it is broken up into smaller pages those can be kept up to date automatically. Currently it is available as a collection of 7 pages. These pages are:
Number of Appearances Comparison of Main Characters
Number of Appearances Comparison of Young Supporting Characters
Number of Appearances Comparison of Adult Supporting Characters
Number of Appearances Comparison of Young Minor Characters
Number of Appearances Comparison of Adult Minor Characters
Number of Appearances Comparison of Animals, Summons and Other Creatures
Number of Appearances Comparison of Out-of-Continuity Characters
