We've collected as many characters as we have found to date. Updates are happening all the time. There are a couple of superhero teams which are of great interest such as [[:Category:Big Hero 6|Big Hero 6]] within the Marvel Universe, and [[:Category:Big Science Action|Big Science Action]] in the DC Universe.

Of course there are plenty of Japanese characters in the vast array of manga and anime titles, but that is beyond the scope of our work here. We are cataloguing characters in the West with a connection to Japan. Hopefully someone will write their Ph.D. on the representation of all of these characters. For now, we're just trying to collect a giant list and see what happens next.
