Joker and Minmay

Gene Starwind - Male

Rei Hino - Female

Joker - Male

Rei Hino - Female

Joseph Carpenter/Joker (R.O.D.) - 4 5
Gene Starwind (Outlaw Star) - 5

Rei Hino/Sailor Mars (Sailor Moon) - 4 5
Lynn Minmay (Macross) - 6

Both competitive battles, but Joker and Rei lose out in the end. Oh snap! Gina snuck in a vote as I was typing this, so that makes the Joker/Gene battle a tie, although Rei still loses. More villains progressing is a good thing, so I'm using my tiebreaker vote to push Joker through.


Males:

Yusuke Urameshi (Yu Yu Hakusho) - After suffering an early demise and being resurrected by Koenma, Yusuke was pressed into service as a detective for the spirit world. Though he's a complete delinquent with a total disdain for authority figures, he also has a big heart, values fair play, will sacrifice himself in an instant to help those he loves.

VS

Brandon Heat (Gungrave) - Working his way up from being a simple street thug, Brandon eventually became the Millennion crime syndicate's top "sweeper." After discovering that his best friend, Harry MacDowell, had betrayed the organization, Brandon confronted him and was killed. However, he was brought back to life and awakened years later to protect the daughter of the woman he had loved and take his revenge on MacDowell, now the leader of Millennion.



Females:

Seras Victoria (Hellsing) - After being fatally shot by Alucard, he offered her a choice: bleed to death or become a vampire. She chose to become a creature of the night and entered the employment of the Hellsing organization, an elite group of soldiers sworn to combat the forces of the undead across England, under the direct supervision of her new master. Even though she chose to become a vampire, she frequently rebels against her nature by refusing to drink blood, causing her to be far weaker than she should be.

VS

Akane Tendou (Ranma 1/2) - As the youngest daughter of the Tendo family, she was chosen by her father and sisters to marry Ranma Saotome. After some initial bad impressions, she came to hate his guts, although time eventually changed her feelings and an unspoken love grew between the two of them. She's a proficient martial artist, a complete tomboy, and has a very short fuse, especially about Ranma's antics.


Oh look, two males who are known for coming back from the dead. And then one of the females is undead. Theme battle!

Mmhm.

Male - Yusuke

Female - Akane

Males are easy this time, but females are harder. Decisons, decisions...

Male - Brandon Heat

Female - Seras Victoria

More villains progressing is a good thing, so I'm using my tiebreaker vote to push Joker through.

:(




Yusuke Urameshi (Yu Yu Hakusho).

Akane Tendou (Ranma 1/2)

Urameshi + Akane 4 evar. lol. j/k.

Yeah but Yusuke Urameshi and Akane Tendou are my votes.

boy - Brandon Heat

girl - Akane Tendou

Yusuke Urameshi Male

Seras Victoria Female

Brandon Heat and Seras Victoria

though all are great characters, and i love them all, i'm gonna have to go with this. (thanks hogan for making it easy on me. instead of typing the bold commands, i just press quote. lol)

Yusuke Urameshi and Akane Tendo( she's like Gina in a lot of ways)^^

Yusuke Urameshi (Yu Yu Hakusho) - 6
Brandon Heat (Gungrave) - 6

Seras Victoria (Hellsing) - 7
Akane Tendou (Ranma 1/2) - 6

Another tie in the male category and a very tight round for the femmes. Tiebreaker vote goes to Brandon Heat.


Males:

Vicious (Cowboy Bebop) - Although he was Spike Spiegel's best friend when they were in the Red Dragon crime syndicate, he turned on his partner when he discovered that Spike had become involved with his girlfriend and decided to leave the syndicate to elope with her. His keen mind and ruthless nature are enough to make him a dangerous opponent, but his lethal skills with a katana complete the package and make him a nearly perfect killer.

VS

Alphonse Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) - In a failed attempt to bring his dead mother back to life, Al's entire body was lost. However, his brother, Edward, was able to attach his soul to a suit of armor to save him. Together with his older brother, he sought the philosopher's stone, which held the power to restore their bodies to normal. However, becoming the stone himself threw a bit of a wrinkle into that plan.



Females:

Kei Yuki (Space Pirate Captain Harlock) - Although she's one of the youngest members of the Arcadia's crew, she serves as one of the ship's key officers. In addition to her duties as navigator and science officer, she also frequently takes part in landing operations and is a crack shot in a firefight. She's generally level-headed, but would risk her life in an instant to help her friends.

VS

Linna Yamazaki (Bubblegum Crisis) - Since the two versions of this character are so different, I'll have to address them individually, but I'll still count them together. In the original series, Linna is a greedy, shallow yuppie with a habit of blowing through boyfriends. She generally served as comic relief and was the least developed of the main characters. In the 2040 update, Linna received a better treatment as a country girl who came to the city in order to seek out and join the Knight Sabers and live out her dreams of heroism. It doesn't take long for her to join up and turn into quite a powerhouse.



More major characters. Two classics on the females, and stangely enough, both of them have had updates in recent years.

Vicious & Kei Yuki

Male - Vicious; Bebop, ftw!

Female - Kei Yuki

boy - Alphonse Elric

girl - Kei Yuki

Alphonse Elric and Kei Yuki

Akane Tendou

&

Brandon Heat

haha Running a little late there, aren't you, T66?

Vicious Male

Kei Yuki Female

Male - Vicious

Female - Kei Yuki

Ain't seen either character in the females category. Don't care much for Viscious, but he's got some props to him. Makes him at least tie with Elric, cause he's another character I don't care much for, except for I think he's a total badass.

In short, fuck this vote!

Male - Vicious

Female - Kei Yuki

Zachron, how dare you call yourself an anime fan if you've not seen any Harlock OR Bubblegum Crisis? Chop chop boy. Get to it.

Zachron, how dare you call yourself an anime fan if you've not seen any Harlock OR Bubblegum Crisis? Chop chop boy. Get to it.

Male - Vicious; Bebop, ftw!

Female - Kei Yuki

hmm, i don't think i care for the females at all. i saw a dvd of the new bgc series. it was cool and all. but i didn't get attached to anyone at all. not even in the slightest. or even bothered to remember anyone's name either. O_o

and i've never seen capt harlock either. but i have seen galaxy express 999 so you can buzz off with your "not a true anime fan" accusations. :p

(i started late but i do have good range)

so for me....females get no vote.



as for the males, this could be tough. i've seen a good number of fma episodes and i love the story behind it. (about 2 bro's trying to get their life back to normal from a tragic accident in which they tried to bring back their mom :( so sad) and vicious is just badass.... if it was spike i'd go for spike, but not vicious.

Males - Alphonse Elric

WTF was I thinking. I was thinking Edward Elric for some reason, and didn't fill like bothering to sort his badassness apart from Viscious. But Alphonse... he beats Viscious hands down.

Still fuck the female vote. (And I'd do them both if they were with me and naked, trust me.)

But I change my male vote to Alphonse Elric.



Zachron, how dare you call yourself an anime fan if you've not seen any Harlock OR Bubblegum Crisis? Chop chop boy. Get to it.

Sorry, but while I have seen pieces of both, I haven't seen enough to remember enough to clearly identify the characters presented. (Well I've only really seen spinnoffs of Harlock Saga, but I had seen 4 episodes of the Bubblegum Crisis series. But it's been ages since then.)

It's ok. Just watch more one day ok

Vicious & Kei Yuki

gonna follow the crowd and vote for Vicious and Kei Yuki

I guess I'll vote for Alphonse. Only Bebop guy I'll vote for is Yusaku Matsuda.

I don't care how "over rated" Bebop is, I loves it.

Bebop overrated? Gotta be kidding me..

Lots of people feel that way, but I feel it's good enough to warrant the attention it's gotten.

Vicious (Cowboy Bebop) - 8
Alphonse Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) - 5

Kei Yuki (Space Pirate Captain Harlock) - 10
Linna Yamazaki (Bubblegum Crisis) - 0

I think pretty much anyone could have pegged how the male vote would go, but I honestly thought there would be a bit of competition for the female side, so Linna's total annihilation comes as a bit of a shock for me.



Males:

Toshiro "Tochiro" Oyama (Space Pirate Captain Harlock) - Genius engineer responsible for the creation of the Arcadia, a powerful pirate vessel commanded by his best friend, Harlock. He's generally outgoing and definitely a likeable sort, but his tendency to die young in most of his incarnations hinders lasting relationships.

VS

Inu Yasha (Inu Yasha) - With his half-human/half-demon heritage, Inu Yasha has a hard time fitting into either world. He's crass, rude, and prefers to deal with problems in the most straightforward way possible, generally boiling down to either killing or breaking something.




Females:

Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury (Sailor Moon) - The resident genius of the Sailor Senshi, as well as the most sensible of the group. Ami's powers are water-based and generally used for tactical gain. Her intellect makes it difficult for her to make new friends, but she's completely loyal to the ones she has. In addition to the usual nerd traits of enjoying art, science, and playing chess, she also likes pop music and swimming.

VS

Teletha Testarossa (Full Metal Panic!) - An energetic but clumsy 16-year-old genius in the employ of the anti-terrorist organization, Mithril, Tessa commands the prototype submarine, Tuatha de Danaan. Her already-exceptional scientific and mathematical skills are made even more powerful by her status as a Whispered, but she has an inferiority complex due to her older brother being even smarter than she is. Also tends to go out of her way to prove people wrong when they say she can't do something.



For the females this time, we have a battle of teenage geniuses. The males include an extremely high profile character and a lesser-known character that will probably claim the votes of anyone familiar with him, as well as those who simply want to look like they're familiar with older shows.

Toshiro "Tochiro" OyamaMale

Ami Mizuno Female

VOTE AMI OR DIE PEOPLE

Male - Toshiro "Tochiro" Oyama

Female - Teletha Testarossa

Male - Tochiro

Female - Teletha Testarossa

Boy - Inu Yasha

Girl - Teletha Testarossa

Male - Inuyasha

Female - Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury

It's sad to admit I like Inuyasha and I do (I even have a folder I bought for .98 cents ^___^ and a cute shirt) just because it's the cute retarded-ness of it. Inuyasha isn't the best but he does make the show.... Same goes for Sailor Moon, I used to watch that shit when I came home from school everyday, it was so awesome and cute and I totally like the color blue for Mercury.

Also;

VOTE AMI OR DIE PEOPLE

VOTE AMI OR I'LL MOTHERFUCKING MURDER YOU SONS OF BITCHES!!!

Female - Ami/Sailor Mercury

Male - Inu Yasha

its sad and pathetic how poeple will NOT vote for inu yasha just cause they hate the fanbase or its hype. -_- i doubt they even know the other character. pfft.

-_- i doubt they even know the other character. pfft.

Tochiro was my favorite character in that series when I was younger. Just because you don't know who he is because you are a stupid child who is stupid doesn't mean that you should get to project your stupidity onto other people(And if you do know who he is then it goes without saying that most other people do too as they almost certainly are more familiar with anime than dumb children like yourself who need to grow up.)

I didn't vote against InuYasha for any other reason than I simply like him less than Tochiro.

Inu Yasha-Male

Sailor Mercury-Female

Inu Yasha and Ami Mizuno.

Tochiro and Ami

What happened to Alucard? I don't see him in the OP anymore and he wasn't eliminated?

The opposite of Ndi for this round.

Odin voting for Inu Yasha? Something seems wrong about that.

Also, Alucard hasn't had his turn yet, but he is still listed.

Tochiro and Ami

Odin voting for Inu Yasha? Something seems wrong about that.

Also, Alucard hasn't had his turn yet, but he is still listed.

I didn't pay attention to the current round and was voting opposite Ndi to be contrarian.

I change my vote, now that I know who the opposition actually is.

Any of you fuckers voting against Alucard when his turn comes up will die!

Alucard is actually a fairly long way off, just so you know.

Prak Remember my warning.

Alucard is actually a fairly long way off, just so you know.

When his time comes up, just post a direct link to his wikipedia article so you don't gloss over anything important or make the mistake of limiting him to the pussy version you get in the TV series (OVA, god damnit!).

Inu Yasha superior to Tochiro Oyama? Tochiro could shoot Inuyasha in one shot, and no wind scar trick or anything else Inu Yasha has can do is going to counter it. Tochiro is a total badass, and he's not too proud to admit it when he's got the hots for someone.

Male Vote: Tochiro.

Okay, you remember what I said about being a sailor scout not being a plus, but Ami is just cute, and the one Sailor Moon character who has been the object of the most hentai art out there. lol. I doubt she'll make it past many of the of the females I've voted in the past, but she still gets my vote for this one.

Female vote: Ami Mizuno

Tochiro was my favorite character in that series when I was younger. Just because you don't know who he is because you are a stupid child who is stupid doesn't mean that you should get to project your stupidity onto other people(And if you do know who he is then it goes without saying that most other people do too as they almost certainly are more familiar with anime than dumb children like yourself who need to grow up.)

yawn. the child and stupid things are getting old. you gotta come up with new material man. i need other reasons to laugh now. or maybe don't repeat yourself so much. i remember back in the day, i'd ROFL when you called me a child and stupid. (lol) i miss those days. :(

Toshiro "Tochiro" Oyama (Space Pirate Captain Harlock) - 7
Inu Yasha (Inu Yasha) - 5

Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury (Sailor Moon) - 8
Teletha Testarossa (Full Metal Panic!) - 4

I honestly didn't expect Inu Yasha to do so well after the beating Naruto took. Incidentally, I notice rezo did not actually vote. I thought this one would certainly draw his attention. Oh well. The next one will probably get him to do so!


Males:

Golgo 13 (Golgo 13) - Perhaps the original anti-hero, Golgo 13 is an unparalleled assassin with a heart of stone and a god's aim. Though he uses the pseudonym Duke Togo, his real name and origin are unknown.

VS

Kira Yamato (Gundam Seed) - After being forced to pilot an experimental mobile suit in order to save his friends, Kira is dragged into a war for the fate of the planet against genetically engineered people called Coordinators, despite the fact that he's a Coordinator himself. Though he's naturally skilled and quickly becomes an ace pilot, he hates war and fights only to defend those he loves. Basically, a recycled Amuro Ray with more teen angst.


Females:

Yuki Nagato (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) - An alien entity sent to Earth by the Integrated Data Entity in order to covertly study a human named Haruhi Suzumiya, who is known to have generated an explosive surge of data three years prior, in the hope that doing so will reveal the means to overcome its own evolutionary dead end. Yuki is generally quiet and does not speak unless asked about something or required to by her duties.

VS

Kei (Dirty Pair) - A trouble consultant for the World Welfare Works Association (3WA) who shares the codename "Lovely Angels" with her partner, Yuri. The two are also known as the Dirty Pair for their tendency to wreak ungodly havoc wherever they go, although it usually isn't exactly their fault. Kei is the more aggressive of the two and prefers to shoot first and ask questions later. The bigger the gun, the better.


More modern vs classic battles.


Also, I want it to be known that I will no longer count votes that are in ANY color except the forum default.

Kira Yamato Male

Kei Female

Dont Worry Prak I shall continue posting as everything went fine:)

Golgo 13 and Yuki, please. ^^

Yamato and Kei.

Golgo 13 and Yuki, please. ^^

Don't have an opinion on the female vote. Must watch more anime to make assesment, don't have said anime's on hand at the moment.

Males: Golgo 13. Never heard of 'im before today, but sounds like he'd sure beat friggin' Kira's ass. Gundam Seed could take my seed in the face for all I care. (Seriously I found it entertaining but not superior to Gundam Wing.) Golgo 13 just sounds cooler for some reason.

Male: Golgo 13

Female: Yuki Nagato

Male - Golgo 13
Female - Kei

Classics!



Also, I want it to be known that I will no longer count votes that are in ANY color except the forum default.

Good luck having that paid attention to.



Males: Golgo 13. Never heard of 'im before today,

Your vote makes me happy...and yet, you still manage to make me cry :(

Good luck having that paid attention to.

The beauty of it is that no one has to pay attention to it. I can just ignore those votes and not think twice about it.

Kira Yamato- male

Yuki Nagato- female

yawn. the child and stupid things are getting old. you gotta come up with new material man.

I will come up with new material as soon as you stop being a stupid child.



I notice rezo did not actually vote. I thought this one would certainly draw his attention. Oh well. The next one will probably get him to do so!

I am voting for Golgo 13. Ignoring the girls because I haven't seen Haruhi Suzumiya(and maybe never will maybe?) but apparently its...better than normal?

Females - Kei (dirty pair)

Males - Golgo 13


never saw gundam seed, don't care for it. same thing with the meloncholy of bladiblahwhatevermang.

rezo, I think you should change your girls vote to show Tact what's what.

go ahead. i don't know what that's supposed to do. this whole round has characters i don't care much about. i just leaned for those that were more familar to me. :p


now, if your goal is pissing me off, you should have voted against' ami in the last round. then i would have traced your ip, linked it to a service provider, found the leases on that ip to accounts, found your account number, linked that to a phone number, name and address, buy plane tickets to address if neccesary, gone to your home, and strangled you in your sleep. :D

rezo, I think you should change your girls vote to show Tact what's what.

Sure.

Also Tact's vote doesn't count because he's actually voting for Kei from Dirty Pair Flash and she isn't in the running this round. Way to be a screw up once again, Tact.

haha. very funny. (realized how insulting that was >.<) that was a good one.

























bastard. -_-

Golgo 13 (Golgo 13) - 7
Kira Yamato (Gundam Seed) - 3

Yuki Nagato (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) - 4
Kei (Dirty Pair) - 4

I actually couldn't tell whether rezo's last post meant he wanted to vote on the females or not. But as far as I can tell, that would have been a Yuki vote, and my tiebreaker vote would go to Yuki, so I'm just gonna say it doesn't matter whose vote puts it over and declare Yuki the winner.


Males:

Gourry Gabriev (Slayers) - He may have yogurt for brains, but Gourry is just about the best swordsman out there. Though completely clueless, he's a good guy with a noble spirit and the appetite of ten normal men. His Sword of Light is pretty badass also.

VS

D (Vampire Hunter D) - The son of Dracula and a human woman, D is an outcast in both worlds, looked down upon by vampires as a half-breed and feared by humans for his heritage. His skill as a vampire hunter is unrivaled due to his vampiric powers and the fact that he's hardly affected at all by the traditional vampiric weaknesses. On top of that, he has a wise-cracking sentient parasite in his left hand that has a wide array of supernatural powers. He may look young, but he's actually ten thousand years old.


Females:


Mai Tokiha (My-HiME) - In a bit of a change from the normal magical girl archetype, Mai is actually incredibly angsty. Feeling responsible for the death of her mother, she takes as much responsibility for her little brother as possible. Her powers as a HiME allow her to summon a creature that seems to be a hybrid of a dragon, whale, and phoenix, and is capable of generating near-nuclear levels of heat.

VS

Ruriko Ikusawa (Gatekeepers) - Being the first identified Gate Keeper in Japan, she was perhaps the most important member of A.E.G.I.S. until being converted to the enemy's side. She's a model student in school and possesses healing powers.


Frankly, I'm not familiar with either of the female characters, but the males are both pretty high-profile. Since they come from radically different archetypes, it could make for a tight battle. Or not. I suck at predicting these things, after all.

Gourry and Mai.

Gourry and Mai.

My thoughts exactly

Gourry and Mai.

hahaha fuck yes! you guys rule now for choosing Gourry! ^^

when i first saw his name i was thinking "omg everyone better vote gourry or die" and then i saw the competition and i almost cried cause i thought everyone would go for D. :(

boy am i glad everyone here loves Slayers as much as i do. ^^ (/me is hardcore slayers fan)


Males - Gourry


and ditto what prak said about the females. i dn't know them. but if Mai is a magical girl then she gets my vote. i'm a fan of any magical girl series. Pretear, SM, Princess Tutu, i eat this stuff up. lol


Females - Mai

Male - Gourry

Female - Ruriko

so I'm just gonna say it doesn't matter whose vote puts it over and declare Yuki the winner.

aw, if that was the case you should have decided the round by removing tact's vote, just to mess with him.

Male - Gourry

Female - Ruriko

aw, if that was the case you should have decided the round by removing tact's vote, just to mess with him.

lol i didn't even care for those chars at all. pfft.

You speak when you are spoken to.

Gourry and Mai.

You speak when you are spoken to.

does that include the voices in my head that talk to me all the time making me post in a million forums? cause they're telling me you should find other hobbies besides trying to make yourself look cool. lol

Goury of course, and Ruriko since she comes from a series I thought to be somewhat cool.

Gourry Gabriev (Slayers) - 8
D (Vampire Hunter D) - 0

Mai Tokiha (My-HiME) - 5
Ruriko Ikusawa (Gatekeepers) - 3

Wow. I never imagined that D would be shut out. Moving right along...



Males:

Hideki Motosuwa (Chobits) - An 18 year old ronin who moved from the country to Tokyo in order to attend cram school, Hideki soon finds a persocom (which he soon names Chii) lying in a trash heap. Naturally, he's thrilled at the prospect of being able to surf the internet for porn. Being used to the solitude of a farm, he constantly talks to himself and becomes frustrated with the pressures of city life. Despite his shortcomings, he's generally a kind person who will always put his friends first.

VS

Mugen (Samurai Champloo) - Though he's usually crass and vulgar, Mugen is... Well, that's about all there is to him, actually. He likes being a pain in the ass, so he does it whenever possible. His combat techniques are modeled more after breakdancing than any martial art and he keeps coming back from the dead somehow.


Females:

Rei Ayanami (Evangelion) - Stoic and introverted, Rei believes her life has no value, so she treats herself accordingly. Of course, this could be because she was artificially created to help bring about the end of the world and has numerous clones waiting to take her place if anything happens to her. Oh, she also pilots a giant robot that isn't really a robot.

VS

Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun (Slayers) - Although she's the princess of the kingdom of Seyruun and a cleric, she constantly travels with the fiendish (not really) sorceress Lina Inverse and company. She's naive, impulsive, and obsessed with dispensing brutal justice for even the smallest crimes.


More opposite archetype battles.

Hideki Motosuwa Male

Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun Female. I remember back when I watched Slayers well what I saw of it. I thought she was great

Male - Mugen

Female - Amelia

I'm surpsied D was shut out too, geez. Also, all weekend and only 8 voters? Bah.

Mugen & Rei

Boy - Mugen

Girl - Rei Ayanami

Boy - Mugen

Girl - Rei Ayanami
<3 I love how Mugen/Spike Spiegel have the same VA, it makes them both all the more perfect.

and I've always liked Rei... ^___^

Male - Hideki Motosuwa

Female - Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun

<3 I love how Mugen/Spike Spiegel have the same VA,

His name is Steven Blum. He also goes by David Lucas depending on what company he's doing work for. He also does work for commercials, Cartoon Network (Tom from Toonami, Jamie on Megas XLR, etc) and lots of video games also. He's one of the better voice actors that do work in anime dubs in my opinion, but he wasn't always so hot, such as his role in Macross Plus.

haha. i've seen macross plus like 10 times and never noticed that was him. lol


Males - Hideki

I have yet to see Chobits, but I have seen some Champloo, so why am i voting for Hideki? Anyone eager to surf the internet for porn gets my vote anyday. :D I think we'd prolly relate more anyway. Sure Mugen is cool and i'd LIKE to be him. But that's diffrent. :p porn all the way! lol



Females - Amelia

If I had to choose which anime series i'd watch for the rest of my life, it'd definately be Slayers. (currently still watching btw, can't get tired of it, most lovable characters in any series) Amelia is very funny along with her pacifist dad and the funny names they have for their attacks! ^^

Mugen and Amelia.

Males - Hideki
Females - Amelia

Boy - Mugen

Girl - Rei Ayanami

Yuppers

Mugen

Hideki Motosuwa (Chobits) - 4
Mugen (Samurai Champloo) - 6

Rei Ayanami (Evangelion) - 3
Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun (Slayers) - 6

So CLAMP's losing streak continues unabated. Keep it up and Ndi's gonna open up a can of whoop-ass on you guys. Slayers, on the other hand, is now 2 for 2.

Also, Irvy*Angel*babe apparently thought she could get away with ignoring my warning about colored fonts, but that is not the case. Her vote was discarded, as will be any future votes that are cast in any font other than the forum default.


Males:

Vash the Stampede (Trigun) - Was a Duracell. Now he's an invincible gunfighter with a goofy personality and a love of donuts. Covered head to toe in nasty-looking scars.

VS

Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop) - Was a mafia thug. Now he's an interplanetary bounty hunter who can't find cigarettes that don't look half-smashed. One of his eyes is cybernetic.



Females:

Tomo Takino (Azumanga Daioh) - She's a bit of a walking conundrum, seeing as she's peppy and competitive, but also unathletic and lazy. Tomo is incredibly impulsive, so she constantly aggravates the people around her, but she's capable of concentrating on a task when she absolutely has to.

VS

Maetel (Galaxy Express 999) - Many a poor fool has wound up as part of the machinery that supports the planet Andromeda thanks to her guidance. It's not that she's evil or anything, but your mother being a megalomaniacal robotic queen kind of limits your career choices. Though Maetel's not a robot herself, she switches human bodies to circumvent the aging process. Her original body is buried under the ice of Pluto.



I skimped a bit on the male descriptions since they're both so recognizable. It's a pretty amazing draw since it was randomly selected.

Male - Spike Spiegel

Female - Tomo Takino

Matsuda Yusaku

Male - Spike Spiegel

Female - Tomo Takino

Spike and Maetel

Male - Vash

Female -Maetel


[/B] [B]

Vash and Tomo, please. ; ;

Male - Vash
Female - Maetel

Males was a hard vote. Despite their crazy popularity and "haha adult swim" status at this point I still like both shows and both characters. I'm going with Vash mostly to keep it more interesting.

WHERE ARE THE MAETEL VOTES PEOPLE

Vash vs Spike...you're killing me here ;_;;

But in either case, it's going to Spiegel <3 because he is in fact, absolutely amazing.

and Maetel because Galaxy Express 999 makes me LOL.

Poor donut loving Vashy pants ;_;;
"You wanna get the girls attention... you put the Vash in it, even if it makes no sense."

Vash and Tomo, please. ; ;

Male - Spike Spiegel

Female - Maetel

to hard to decide...
TOMO!! FTW.

and Spike.

wow that is tough. spike and vash? both are great. >.<

i think i'm...gonna.....arg!! i was gonna vote vash just cause i like happy chars more than serious ones. but spike is just...too cool.

i guess no vote for me for the males.



for females its a cinch. Tomo!!

Females - Tomo

i love this series. :p

Male - Spike Spiegel

Female - Tomo Takino

Vash the Stampede (Trigun) - 4
Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop) - 7

Tomo Takino (Azumanga Daioh) - 7
Maetel (Galaxy Express 999) - 5

Matsuda Yusaku - 1 :laugh:

Both were very close battles at first, but Spike and Tomo pulled away at the end, leaving Maetel at the end of the line and Vash without any more donuts. I'm not happy about that, btw. As Ameena has only just joined and could easily vanish after a day or two, I would have discounted that vote if it was a deciding factor, but since it wasn't, there's not really any sense in striking it.


Males:

Syaoran Li (Cardcaptor Sakura) - As a relative of the person who created the Clow cards, Syaoran believes himself to be their rightful inheritor. However, after Sakura is officially deemed their master, he becomes her friend and ally, and later falls in love with her. He is proficient in martial arts, swordsmanship, and sorcery.

VS

Ken Washio (Gatchaman) - Despite the boy scout image he was given in the Battle of the Planets version of the show, Ken is actually quite a hellraiser. As the leader of the Science Ninja Team, he frequently takes foolish risks, but won't tolerate the people on his team doing the same. Although he's naturally charismatic and a show-off, he's absolutely clueless when it comes to romance.



Females:

Skuld (Ah! My Goddess) - A second-class Goddess and one of Yggdrasil's system debuggers, Skuld is the younger sister of Belldandy and Urd. She descended to Earth thinking that Belldandy was being forced to live with Keiichi against her will (with the ulterior motive of alleviating her loneliness), but when she discovered that isn't the case, she decided to stay as Belldandy's unofficial chaperone. Skuld's engineering skills are second-to-none and frequently either come in handy or create minor catastrophes.

VS

Misato Katsuragi (Evangelion) - As a teenager, she was at ground zero when the Second Impact occurred, surviving only because of her father sealing her in a protective capsule. Years later, working for NERV, she served as Head of Operations, overseeing the missions of the Evangelion units. Though she's generally very professional and efficient at work, she's a complete slob at home, where she drinks heavily, picks on Shinji, and relies on instant food since she can't cook.


I doubt that the males will draw that much interest this time, but a high-profile female battle should make up for it.

omg Misato and Li please!

male - Syaoran Li

female - Misato Katsuragi

Males - Syaoran Li

Females - Skuld

Though one since I never seriously watched those shows, but for the sake of the rumble:

boi: Ken Washio

girly: Skuld

male - Syaoran Li

female - Misato Katsuragi

edit: wtf is going on. every post i make ends up here instead of in the bottom?

O_o i don't know how it happend. but my "latest" post ended up in my "last post" BEFORE praks post...wtf?

Male - Ken Washio
Female - Misato

Maetel :(

DOUBLE POST cos forums are going bonkers

Syaoran Li Male

Misato Katsuragi Female

Male - Ken Washio

Female - Misato Katsuragi

male - Syaoran Li

female - Misato Katsuragi

Syaoran Li and Misato

Male: Ken Washio - I can't believe people are voting for a character from Card Captors... what has the Anime world come to?

Females: Misato Katsuragi... no contest here. If the Ah My Goddess character was Ur, or Belldandy, then we might have had some competition here, but nah.

Card Captors and Card Captor Sakura can't even be called the same show.

It's like saying that the english and japanese samurai pizza cats are the same show, except in this case one version was really terrible. ; ;

I can join too right?

Male: Syaoran - Simply because he has same surname with me. LOL.
Female: Misato - No contest here.

I can join too right?

Male: Syaoran - Simply because he has same surname with me. LOL.
Female: Misato - No contest here.

Just don't vote in any other text color than white, and you'll be fine.

Syaoran Li
and
Skuld

Sorry folks. No update today.

I'll have it up tomorrow morning. Since it'll be a fairly inconsequential round, I'll end it as usual on Wednesday.

Syaoran Li (Cardcaptor Sakura) - 9
Ken Washio (Gatchaman) - 4

Skuld (Ah! My Goddess) - 3
Misato Katsuragi (Evangelion) - 10


Two rather dominating victories there. Also, CLAMP's losing streak has ended.


Males:

Eikichi Onizuka (GTO) - He's rude, loudmouthed, and perverted, but this former leader of a biker gang is quite possibly the greatest teacher in Japan. Although he loves his students and would do almost anything for them, he's not afraid to use his martial arts skills to administer a little tough love when the situation demands it.

VS

Takeo Takakura (Magic Users Club) - Here's a guy who can think perverted thoughts about anything. This teenage wizard, although he's the leader of his club, basically has no idea what he's doing and it learning as he goes. He loves looking at the girls in the club, but finds it a bit hard to focus on them while fending off the advances of Aburatsubo, the other male club member.


Females:

Miaka Yuki (Fushigi Yugi) - After being sucked into a book and spat out in another world, this ordinary junior-high student is accepted by the natives as the legendary Priestess of Suzaku and begins a quest to gather seven Celestial Warriors. Although she's good natured, she's not too bright. She happens to be a big fan of anime, sometimes imitating well-known characters over the course of her journey.

VS

Lime (Saber Marionette J) - Of the series' principle characters, Lime is the most childlike, being naive, playful, inquisitive, impulsive, and perpetually cheerful. Though strong in combat, she has no special abilities to set her apart.


Since this one doesn't look to be a very big battle, I'm going to update as usual tomorrow, although I may do it a little late in the day.

Takeo Takakura Male

Lime Female

Males - Eikichi Onizuka

Females - Miaka Yuki



have the first dvd of gto. hilarious! gotta vote for that. and my friend would prolly kill me if i dind't vote for fushigi yugi.

Vote for characters, not shows, please.

Female - Miaka Yuki

Male - Eikichi Onizuka

Female - Lime

Male - Eikichi

Female - Lime

Eikichi- Really I'm voting for the live-action version though =\

Miaka

Male - Eikichi Onizuka

Female - Lime

Male: Eikichi Onizuka... I've never actually seen the show, but this guy's got something goin' for him.

Female: Miaka Yuki... The female lead in Fushigi Yuugi, she's just one of those characters that I love, and hate. I think she's too dependent on others for too much... But at the same time, she possesses a quite potent courage and a strong sense of right from wrong. Which sets her quite apart from the female leads of most shojou manga, which have stories driven the the personal desires of said female leads, in lieu of any moral compass.

Eikichi Onizuka (GTO) - 6
Takeo Takakura (Magic Users Club) - 1

Miaka Yuki (Fushigi Yugi) - 4
Lime (Saber Marionette J) - 4

Not a shocking outcome for the males, although it was a really good draw for Onizuka. I really thought Miaka would dominate the females though. Oh well, tiebreaker time. Lime advances, cause I really didn't care and the coin said so.


Males:

D-boy (Tekkaman Blade) - A very typical stoic superpowered hero, constantly keeping the secrets of his past hidden for no good reason and kicking lots of alien ass. I have to give him credit for some decent badassery in the sequel though.

VS

Hikaru Ichijyo (Macross) - Unlike most sci-fi heroes, Hikaru is humble rather than hot-headed and cheerful rather than brooding. After attending the SDF-1 Macross's launch ceremony, he was quickly swept up into the war, soon demonstrating remarkable piloting skills and leadership abilities. His name was changed to Rick Hunter in Robotech.



Females:

Naru Narusegawa (Love Hina) - A teenage girl with a short temper, Naru is also a top candidate for admission to Tokyo University. Because of her relentless studying throughout high school, she is extremely nearsighted and requires thick glasses to see properly, which she avoids wearing whenever possible. Her favorite activity seems to be punching Keitaro halfway to the moon over trivial things and misconceptions.

VS

Hyatt (Excel Saga) - Hyatt is quite a competent agent of ACROSS except for one little quirk: she dies at least once an hour. She's soft-spoken and generally clueless, but she follows instructions fairly well for a sickly alien(?) princess.



This looks like it'll be one-sided both ways. Let the slaughter commence.

Also, please vote for Hikaru under that name, not Rick Hunter, as it will be easier to count that way.

Female - Naru Narusegawa

Male - D-Boy

That one was hard for me, one-sided my ass :(

Female - Hyatt

Hikaru Ichijyo and Naru Narusegawa :D

Male - Hikaru Ichijyo

Female - Naru Narusegawa

O K

I get it

I will look goofy for voting for the ones no one else likes

Hikaru and Hyatt

O K

I get it

I will look goofy for voting for the ones no one else likes

Actually, I made it out like it would be competely one-sided because when I say things like that, it usually jinxes the rumble and things turn out to be the opposite of my expectations. I'm actually hoping for a close contest, as always.

Male - Hikaru Ichijyo


woot. everyone vote hikaru or die!

i can't vote for the chicks cuase neither of them mean anything to me. so bleh!

hmm toughy..

gonna go with Hyatt simply because her voice actress was that more impressive and her charakter is just a hoot

Males: Hikary Ichijyo, cos Rick Hunter counterpart.

Females: Naru Narusegawa because she's hot, and badass, and jailbait for half the story. And from something far superior to exell saga, and while I usually don't vote based considerably on the stories.... I don't have enough good experiences with Exell Saga to get a handle on how good any of its characters are... Naru got a good draw.

Hikaru Ichijyo

Not voting for femmes...

Hikaru and Hyatt

D-Boy :o

Male - D-Boy

Female - Hyatt

D-boy (Tekkaman Blade) - 2
Hikaru Ichijyo (Macross) - 7

Naru Narusegawa (Love Hina) - 4
Hyatt (Excel Saga) - 5

As expected, Hikaru demolishes D-Boy. However, I really thought Naru would have won, and if not for Bryan's last minute Hyatt vote, I would have used my tiebreaker vote to make it happen.


Now for an announcement. I've decided that I am going to randomize thigns again for round 2 and may even do the same for round three. More on that later.


Males:

Momiji Sohma (Fruits Basket) - A cute but androgynous-looking 15-year-old cursed with the spirit of the rabbit of the Chinese zodiac. Although he seems happy-go-lucky, he's actually had a very difficult family life. For some reason, he likes to wear a female's school uniform with shorts instead of a skirt.

VS

Kenshin Himura (Rurouni Kenshin) - Known as the Hitokiri Battousai, Kenshin was a nearly invincible assassin in the days of the Meiji revolution. After the war, he disappeared and began to wander throughout Japan, seeking to atone for the many deaths he was responsible for. To this end, he carries a katana with the blade on the wrong side, making him almost incapable of killing people. Though he's generally goofy and well-intentioned, a darker side of his personality lurks beneath the surface.



Females:

Mizuho Kazami (Onegai Teacher) - An alien being sent to earth to monitor its development, her plans were disrupted before she even got started when a young man saw her ship land. Soon after starting work at the local high school as a teacher, she wound up in a compromising position with that same guy, Kei, and was forced to marry him. Though she's usually sensible, she's overly trusting of others and very jealous of other girls who get too close to Kei.

VS

Tomoyo Daidouji (Cardcaptor Sakura) - As the best friend of Sakura Kinomoto, Tomoyo assists the Cardcaptor in her own unique way, both by covering for her to preserve her secret identity and by designing costumes for her to wear in battle. She is kind, pretty, intelligent, cunning and resourceful in a pinch, and speaks very formally due to her refined upbringing.


I know last week's update schedule was bizarre, but it should return to normal this week.

Males - Kenshin Himura

Females - Tomoyo Daidouji

Male: Kenshin Himura

Female: Mizuho Kazami

[:swoon:]Kenshin Himura and Tomoyo Daidouji

Gatsu (Guts) from Berserk, and i don't really have a favorite female character. Closest thing to it would be Sakura from Naruto, but only after character development.

Read the first post and don't post here again until you understand what's going on.

Males - Kenshin Himura

Females - Tomoyo Daidouji

done and done!

Male - Kenshin

Female - Mizuho

Males - Kenshin Himura

Females - Tomoyo Daidouji

Momiji and Tomoyo ; ;

Where is the love, guys?

Momiji Sohma (Fruits Basket) - 1
Kenshin Himura (Rurouni Kenshin) - 6

Mizuho Kazami (Onegai Teacher) - 2
Tomoyo Daidouji (Cardcaptor Sakura) - 5

Pretty predictable outcomes there. Low turnout also.


Males:

Yuki Sohma (Fruits Basket) - Possessed by the spirit of the rat of the Chinese Zodiac, Yuki turns into a rat when hugged by a female. He's good-looking and refined, but tends to be antisocial due to the mental traumas inflicted on him by Akito Sohma during his childhood. As a result of Akito's torture, Yuki has low self-esteem and is claustrophobic.

VS

Tetsuo Shima (Akira) - A young delinquent and member of a motorcycle gang led by his best friend, Kaneda, whom he harbors an inferiority complex about. When he develops frighteningly powerful psionic abilities, he cuts a swath of destruction through Neo-Tokyo in an attempt to find a person called Akira, who possesses the same power as himself and may be able to help him stop the headaches that came with his new abilities.



Females:

Umi Ryuzaki (Magic Knight Rayearth) - One of three girls taken from Tokyo Tower and whisked away to an alternate world called Cephiro to become Magic Knights. Umi is brash and arrogant, but is an expert fencer. Unlike the others, she doesn't care at first about saving Cephiro and only wants to go home to compete in a fencing tournament, but soon comes around. She uses water-based magic and fights aggressively, using her speed to defeat opponents.

VS

Aisha Clanclan (Outlaw Star) - Although she had originally been charged with the task of locating the Galactic Leyline by the Ctarl-Ctarl Empire, Aisha was removed from that duty and placed on a less desirable one as punishment for a failure. She later joined the crew of the Outlaw Star in order to search for "Hot Ice" Hilda. This catgirl drinks too much, eats too much, and can turn into a white tiger at will.



Maybe we'll more votes this time.

Females - Aisha Clanclan

Male - Tetsuo Shima

Female - Aisha Clanclan

Male - Tetsuo

Female - Aisha

Yuki Sohma Male

Umi Ryuzaki Female

Male - TETSUOOOOOOOOO

Female - Umi Ryuzaki

Male - TETSUOOOOOOOOO

Female - Umi Ryuzaki

Male - Tetsuo Shima

Female - Aisha Clanclan



aw hell yah. a legend and one of my all time favs. :p i love aisha. ^^

Yuki Sohma

Aisha Clanclan

Simple enough
Male: Tetsuo, hand's down... He's just the very definition of angst filled anime anti-hero.

Female: Umi Ryuzaki. It was pretty close actually, but something is to be said about elegance. Although she's a brat, who's mostly self-centered and doesn't really understand what it is to work a day in her life, but something is still to be said about grace and elegance. To have the such coolness and refinment in even the most dire of circumstances, is the mark of someone who's really made of better stuff... which is of course why the three were chosen, who were chosen.

Yuki Sohma (Fruits Basket) - 2
Tetsuo Shima (Akira) - 6

Umi Ryuzaki (Magic Knight Rayearth) - 4
Aisha Clanclan (Outlaw Star) - 5

This outcome kinda hurts me since I was rooting for Umi. Oh well.


Males:

Kazuma Kuwabara (Yu Yu Hakusho) - Ah, the classic tough as nails, but dumb as a brick stereotype. In addition to his skull seeming to be 6 inches thick, he's kinda noble, prefers to fight his battles alone, loves kittens, and can make a sword out of spiritual energy.

VS

Ranma Saotome (Ranma 1/2) - A strong teenage martial artist with a streak of stubborn pride and an array of ludicrous techniques. Ranma spends much of his time being beaten up by his fiance, Akane, whom their respectives fathers arranged his marriage to, as well as beating up a peanut gallery of oddball idiots who either want to marry him, Akane, or someone who wants to marry one of the two. Did I mention that he turns into a girl when splashed with cold water.



Females:

Henrietta (Gunslinger Girl) - Following the brutal murder of her family and facing death herself, this innocent little girl was saved by a secret branch of the Italian government, turned into a cyborg, and trained as an assassin.

VS

Lacus Clyne (Gundam SEED) - In addition to being the daughter of a major political figure, Lacus is a celebrity in her own right as a singer among the genetically engineered race of humans called Coordinators. As such, she carries great influence among her people. Though she dislikes war, she doesn't hesitate to fight for the sake of bringing peace to the world.



Bigger characters this time. Bigger votes perhaps?

woah. this looks like a tough battle for the males. mostly for me cause i like both chars.

I like Kuwabara cause he's funny and really and cool at the same time. And Ranma is funny too. I really like it when he turns into a girl. ^^ Fanservice all for me. yay. ^^

man this is tough. >.< um............... I think i'll go with Ranma.


Males - Ranma



as for females. i don't care for any of them. nuts to them!

Male - Ranma Saotome

Female - Lacus Clyne

Male - Ranma
Female - Henrietta

I know this is childish, but part of me actually wants to put a "Who would win" segment into the new updates. But then again, that might draw a bit more attention and raise the number of votes. Or it might attract attention of the retarded kind...

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

I think the negative is liable to outweigh the positive on this one. It sounds like a magnet for flame wars, and fan boys alike. It sounds good, Prak, but there's reams of idiots here just waiting to abuse it.

Ranma Saotome and Henrietta http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/5051/swanygs8.gif (http://imageshack.us)

Kazuma Kuwabara Cause Kittens<3

Henrietta- Female

Also Prak your idea is good in theory. you'd just need to police this thread to make sure the fan boys dont retard up the thread or someone else with mod powers in this forum so ya can keep on top of it.

Ranma for refined character over home-town cooked Kuwabara.

Lacus Clyne nearly because her righteous candidness(comparable to Aeris like-say when she tells Cloud to back off of Barret when entering the Gold Saucer for the first time) compensates for her annoying innocence.

Male - Ranma Saotome

Female - Lacus Clyne

Ranma and Henrietta

Everyone change your vote to Henrietta, because she is the cutest ever and hugs her gun. ; ;

Ranma and Henrietta mainly to placate Ndi, and also cos i didnt like SEED.

Male - Kazuma

Female - Henrietta

Ranma and Henrietta

Henrietta

Kazuma Kuwabara (Yu Yu Hakusho) - 2
Ranma Saotome (Ranma 1/2) - 9

Henrietta (Gunslinger Girl) - 8
Lacus Clyne (Gundam SEED) - 3


Nothing resembling a close contest there. Moving right along...!


Males:

Tetsuro Hoshino (Galaxy Express 999) - After the murder of his mother at the hands of Count Mecha, young Tetsuro embarked on a journey to the planet Andromeda, the end of the line of the galaxy railways, in order to exchange his human body for a mechanized one so he could live forever. By the end, however, his journey had helped him to discover just how precious humanity really is.

VS

Astro/Atom (Astro Boy/Tetsuwan Atom) - Built by Dr. Tenma in the image of his own dead son, Atom was sold to an abusive circus owner when his creator realized he could not fill the void his son's death left in his heart, largely due to the fact that Atom could never grow. Another scientist eventually found him and rescued him from the circus, after which Atom became a super hero.



Females:

Misa Hayase/Lisa Hayes (Macross) - As the daughter of an admiral, Misa's dream had always been to join the UN Spacy. After graduating from the Officers' Academy, she earned a position on the bridge of the SDF-1 Macross, where her strong will, leadership skills, and devotion to duty were put to their greatest test. She later Married Hikaru Ichijyo.

VS

Ai Amano (Video Girl Ai) - As a video girl, Ai's purpose was supposed to be to bring cheer to the lives of lonely men. However, when Yota played her tape in his broken VCR and she came out of the TV, she came out broken herself. Instead of being graceful, nubile, and comforting, she turned out tomboyish, rude, and rather flat-chested. Oops.



Nothing ultra-high profile here, but some fairly big names. Hopefully they'll be enough to draw a few votes.

Boy - Astro

Girl - Ai

Male: Astro/Atom

Female: Misa Hayase/Lisa Hayeso.

Male - Tetsuro, he was ace in GE999, little kid with the machine gun opening some whoop ass.

Female - Misa Hayase

Tetsuro Hoshino- Male

Ai Amano- Female

Male - Tetsuro

Female - Ai

Male - Tetsuro, he was ace in GE999, little kid with the machine gun opening some whoop ass.

Female - Misa Hayase


everyone vote like me and Twilight or die! @_@

Tetsuro Hoshino (Galaxy Express 999) - 4
Astro/Atom (Astro Boy/Tetsuwan Atom) - 2

Misa Hayase/Lisa Hayes (Macross) - 3
Ai Amano (Video Girl Ai) - 3


Turnout was pretty crap this time. You guys can do better than this. Settled the tie with a coin toss cause I like them about equally. Misa moves on.



Males:

Vegeta (Dragonball) - Arrogant and way too proud for his own good, Vegeta is the prince of the Saiyan race, as well as one of its few survivors. Although he desperately wants to be the strongest fighter in the universe, Goku keeps edging the poor guy out.

VS

Kakashi Hatake (Naruto) - Um... he's a ninja with a weird eye who reads adult novels. That's about all I know. Just vote Vegeta.



Females:

Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon (Sailor Moon) - Perhaps the definitive magical girl, Usagi is a teenage crybaby who'd rather be pigging out on sweets and sleeping than fighting the forces of evil. Of course, being a reincarnated princess from the moon tends to limit one's future prospects just a bit, so she'll eventually end up as a queen, married to Tuxedo Mask with a daughter everyone hates.

VS

Lina Inverse (Slayers) - Standing between Lina and something wants--be it food, treasure, or anything else--is generally not regarded as a good move if you like being in one piece and uncooked. The pint-sized, flat-chested teenage sorceress has a quick temper and the power to flatten entire towns with a single spell. Her solution to most problems is pretty simple: blow it up until it isn't a problem anymore and run away from everyone who's pissed off about their house being a pile of ash.



Really big characters this time. Will that mean really big votes? I hope so. Also, Tact, please do not have a heart attack over the females.

Kakashi Hatake- Male

Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon- Female


Now everybody note. There are hit squads ready for anyone who votes against Sailor moon.

Kakashi (I hate Naruto, but I like him better.)
Tsukino ( Sailor Moon Wins!)

Vegeta definetly.
Sailor Moon for the victory.

Abstaining because of shitty animes that I've never watched paired against one another.

Male - Vegeta
Female - Lina Inverse

Why am I the only one voting Lina? WHY?!

Male - Vegeta

Female - Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon

Ouch. My mind kept vacillating between the female candidates. Tough choice, indeed. :-(


Vegeta definetly.
Sailor Moon for the victory.

You may want to change this...For...


Also, Irvy*Angel*babe apparently thought she could get away with ignoring my warning about colored fonts, but that is not the case. Her vote was discarded, as will be any future votes that are cast in any font other than the forum default.

Male - Vegeta, coz he's Vegeta and LOL, DBZ. Also, coz Naruto sucks hardcore.

Female - Sailor Moon


Now everybody note. There are hit squads ready for anyone who votes against Sailor moon.
Hit squads? More like "In the name of the moon I will punish you!"

Vegeta ; ;

And going for Lina, because Usagi seems to be getting more votes, and I love them both.

Males - Vegeta


females.....................*heart attack*





























aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. the torture!! how dare the fates make me choose between two of my great loves. >.< curse you, fate!! curse you to hell!!!


i think i'd rather not vote. i cannot bare to see my heart struggle to choose. it is too painful. coughusagicough. yes, it is better i do not vote coughinversecough at all! coughlina&usagicough :D


no but seriously. i vote for each of the girls. lol

Kakashi Hatake & Lina Inverse

Hit squads? More like "In the name of the moon I will punish you!"

Sorry you are very correct there. And a lot of people are gonna get punished by the moon if she loses is all I can say.

Kakashi Vegeta has more history and worth, but Kakashi is cooler and more realistic.

Lina Inverse Flat chests rock. Ryoki/Ryo-Ohki from Tenchi Muyo is also better than Sailor Moon :)

Male - Kakashi Hatake

Female - Lina Inverse

No update today, guys. Voting on this one will remain open until Monday. Regular updates will resume then.

Also, it breaks my heart that I can't update at the moment since my own favorites would win if I closed it right now.

Males - Vegeta

Females - Usagi Tsukino

Vegeta and Usagi Tsukino

Vegeta and Tsukino

Vageta, the guy has to win at someting.

Sailor Moon, cause I was threatened.

Vegeta, for the win.

Lina, because anyone is better than Sailor Moon.

Vegeta (Dragonball) - 10
Kakashi Hatake (Naruto) - 5

Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon (Sailor Moon) - 8
Lina Inverse (Slayers) - 6


As expected, Vegeta walks right over the excessively cliche ninja guy. Alas, the late update has cost Lina the victory.


Males:

Touga Kiryuu (Revolutionary Girl Utena) - The duties of Ohtori Academy's student council president extend a bit beyond the norm. Instead of day-to-day routine, he and the other members of the council plan and discuss duels for possession of the Rose Bride. Touga is a ladies man (or womanizer, if you prefer) through and through, but develops a bit of a soft spot for Utena, the only girl around who's more than a match for him.

VS

Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) - After meeting a kindly pirate, Luffy decided to become a pirate himself. Semingly modeled heavily after Dragonball's Goku, Luffy is superhumanly strong, good-natured, simple-minded, and has a monstrous appetite. After eating a devil fruit as a child, his body became like rubber, making him mostly impervious to harm.



Females:

Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop) - Though she appears to be in her early 20s, Faye actually spent several decades in cryostasis and woke up with total amnesia, not even knowing her real name. She's typically confident, self-reliant, and conceited, as well as lazy about everything but keeping up her appearance. Though she's a skilled bounty hunter, her love of gambling keeps her pretty much broke.

VS

Shinku (Rozen Maiden) - A mystical doll with the personality of a traditional aristocrat. She's extremely demanding, seldom shows any sign of emotion, and frequently lectures or slaps her human "medium." Though she desperately wants to win the "Alice Game," she refuses to resort to ruthless methods to do so.



What unfortunate pairings. I do not see this being much of a competition at all.

Males - Monkey Luuuuffffyyyy, lol straw hat.

Females - Faye Valentine, I better not have to get out the avatar again. Vote Faye Faye! ^_____^

Luffy, cos ive actually seen One-Piece

Faye, cos Gina asked me to ^__^

Faye

Faye
and...
Luffy (manga, not anime)

Male - Monkey D. Luffy *^o^* pirates

Female - Faye Valentine *^p^* Gina

Male - Monkey D. Luffy

the stretchy guy is cool.

Female - Faye Valentine

oh yah. definately faye. she's so hot. :p

Monkey D. Luffy Male

Faye Valentine Female for Gina ^_^

Male - Touga

Female - Faye

Touga

and I'll vote for Shinku, cause too cute for a shutout. ^^

Male: Monkey D. Luffy

Female: Faye Valentine

wtf is with all the votes for the One Piece guy?

Haha

Seriously though, how is a Goku ripoff creaming a neat character like Touga? :(

Goku ripoff? Watch the show first before you start judging one of the most hilarious main charakters of a shounen ever.

Male: Monkey D. Luffy

Female: Faye Valentine

I didnt even had to look at the page before this to know who the contestant we're(but just outta curiousity i did)
Faye and Haruko(FLCL) are my 2 female favorites, hope one of the 2 wins <3

I did my homework. The character is copied almost directly from Goku. Perhaps you never saw the original Dragonball series?

Anyway, just get on with the voting so I can hurry up and put an end to this ridiculous round.

I feel bad for adding to the wimmenz slaughter but, eh. It's too bad about Touga though indeed.

Touga Kiryuu (Revolutionary Girl Utena) - 2
Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) - 7

Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop) - 10
Shinku (Rozen Maiden) - 1


As expected, Faye dominates. Still, I thought Touga would win this one. I guess being a better character is no match for having exposure on cartoon network.

Guys, I'm doing something very unorthodox this time. One of the two characters scheduled to do battle doesn't seem to exist and I can't figure out whose name it's supposed to be (silly me for not double checking all the nominated characters), so I'm making a substitution from a pool of extra characters I have sitting around in case of just such an emergency.

Oh my. What a draw this is...


Males:

Light Yagami (Death Note) - Substitute character. Light had everything going for him. He was brilliant, well-liked by all who knew him, and had a bright future as a lawyer in front of him. It bored him. When the notebook of a Death God (which allows a person to kill by simply knowing a person's face and writing their name in the book) fell into his hands, he seized the opportunity to kill all those he deemed to be evil and rule over the people of his new world as a god.

VS

Takumi Fujiwara (Initial D) - Although he didn't realize it, driving his dad's old car on Mt. Akina's winding roads every night to deliver tofu caused Takumi to develop almost godlike racing skills. Although reluctant at first because he regarded driving as a chore, he soon came to appreciate the thrill of competition and began to seek out ever-tougher opponents.



Females:

Mikuru Asahina (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) - A time traveller from the future, Mikuru's mission is to investigate the source of a strange disturbance that prevents her people from travelling beyond a certain point in history - a disturbance centered around a young girl named Haruhi. Because she's shy and timid, Haruhi (who doesn't know the truth about her friends being aliens, espers, and time travellers) takes a sadistic pleasure in forcing Mikuru to wear embarrassing outfits.

Belldandy (Ah! My Goddess) - A Goddess with a first class license, she grants wishes to good-hearted mortals. On a routine trip to earth to grant a wish for Keiichi Morisato, he wishes for her to stay by his side forever. When the wish is approved by the heavenly computer Yggdrasil, she moves in with him. Belldandy is perpetually kind to everyone she meets and always considers the feelings of others. However, though she hides it well, she tends to be very jealous and possessive, particularly of Keiichi.



This is definitely an interesting match-up. Two older characters with large loyal followings VS two new characters, both of whom are currently enjoying the height of their popularity.

EDIT: This is also the halfway mark of the first round.

Male: Takumi Fujiwara

Female: Mikuru Asahina

Luffy (manga, not anime)

btw, I chucked this vote because this is the ANIME rumble. As it is not for the anime character, it is invalid.

Sorry about that!

They get my vote easy. Light is a genious, and Haruhi is one of my favorite anime.

Takumi and......

Mikuru. Sorry, Belldandy. She's just too cute!
