While I shudder at the thought of ANYONE writing an Anita Blake fanfic,
if you want a couple more suggestions:

1. Himiko Se: as a spiritualist she has limited talents probably on a
par with what Anita PUBLICLY admits to having; she's the
narrator/nemesis in the original Vampire Princess OAV series, and has
probably switched to full-time vampire hunting after her experiences.

2. Anybody from the crew froom "Phantom Quest Corp." Hey, they already
do it professionally.

3. Anybody from Ghost Sweeper Mikami. I've seen an ep. It's wacky as
heck.

4. Hino Rei. As an ordinary Shinto shrine maiden with reputed psychic
abilities **cough,cough,Sailormars** she might be one to get the real
info from such a training trip

5. Momiji Fujimiya + her bodyguard Mamoru Kusanagi of the TAC (Blue
Seed). Hey, what better use for a government-sponsored monster-hunting
agency that's out of (giant) monsters to fight?

**Bonus!! Kusanagi Vs. Jean-Claude: Who can be more ecchi??**

6. Any of several people who shows up in Tokyo Babylon or eventually in
X. But you have to work the timeline right with them due to the high
bodycounts involved at the crossover point.

Uh, have fun!
