Jeanne (Bayonetta) - Low fodder

Bayonetta herself is much more popular and well-known than any of her games and this was the case even before she was in Smash. For other characters in her series to be worth anything here, her games would have to be worth something here. And most indications are that they're kinda not.

Mara (Shin Megami Tensei series) - Low fodder
The Scarecrow (DC Comics) - Low fodder

While Scarecrow is a notable, sorta-well known member of Batman's rogue gallery, he's probably in the bottom half of that category. Think the only other live-action movie villain he beats is probably Ra's al Ghul. Joker, Catwoman, Penguin, Riddler, Two-Face, Mr Freeze, Poison Ivy, and Bane all probably trump him. He's also not beating Harley Quinn. Does have the edge over, say, Killer Croc, Clayface, and Mad Hatter though. So yeah, he's maybe the 10th strongest Batman villain. Is the vast majority of the site that's never read a Batman comic (other than maybe the Killing Joke and the Dark Knight Returns) going to care at all about him? Probably not. Apparently he has a decent role in some of the Arkham games though; haven't played. I could see cartoon appearances, Nolan trilogy, and Arkham adding up to SOMETHING and he's got being kinda-sorta recognizable going for him but when push comes to shove I don't think people are gonna take the second-to-third-rate Batman villain over anyone with any following.

also he was in SUPERFRIENDS.
