No Nayuki Minase from Kanon? She's practically magnetized to cats despite the fact she's severely allergic to them.

I don't think Sakaki cultivates a "cool girl" image. She's too humble for that. She just happens to be "cool" without much effort because of her height, looks, intelligence, and athletic ability.

(This is based on possibly faulty memory; I haven't watched Azumanga Daioh for some time now.)

That was joke.She herself doesn't cultivate the image but that's how everyone around her see's her and I'm guessing she doesn't want to disappoint them.

No, you are absolutely right. Miss Sakaki is just quiet and it's the other girls outside The Six (especially Kaori!) that think she's "cool". She never overtly did or said anything that would foster the "Cool Girl" image.

Madoka from Shounen Maid should be on the list. Seriously, man with cat allergy, who still couldn't resist a cat and often takes them home, despite that, causing lot of troubles to himself and anyone around him, yet he has fear of dogs? Who else fits the definition of weird cat fetish if not Madoka?

Yo, Fate/Apocrypha doesn't take place in Fuyuki. That's the setting of Fate/stay night, Fate/Zero, Fate/hollow ataraxia, and Fate/kaleid liner. Apocrypha's setting is Romania.
Side note: Fate/Extra and Fate/Extella's setting is the moon in a dystopian future of another alternate world with its own unique background. Or rather, inside a Matrix-like computer-generated reality, inside a hyper-advanced computer system that happens to be physically located on the moon, in a dystopian... etc (btw, for those reading this who might think I just spoiled some Matrix-like twist with that statement, no, that stuff is spelled out for you at pretty much the very beginning). So yeah, Fuyuki really isn't a catch-all in the slightest.

Or you could just do the ultimate catch-all and call it the Nasuverse. Which is an entire multiverse containing quite a few universes with their own distinct details of setting, so it might be cheating.

Although Fuyuki still has the same issue when not paired with a series name, because the 2 different versions of Fuyuki in kaleid liner are very different from the version of Fuyuki in the former 3 entries. Therefore the same thing would end up fitting just as well in the end I suppose: Nasuverse (Fate/Apocrypha)


[Regardless, that isn't my vote anyway. That's Western Restaurant Nekoyama. I'm just saying.]

Yeah, by the way, there's that one, too. I'm also pretty sure that one doesn't always take place in exactly the same point in time.

I was tempted to pick Made in Abyss's setting as a choice, but i realized that the abyss might not seem all that wonderful. So i guess a world with monster/animal people would be interesting to live in.
