Tag.

I think I'm suffering from a delayed post-Evangelion depression.

This series has too much power over me emotionally. Pretty sure no other media has ever made even close to the impact this one has had on me over the course of my life. It's so good but argh this pain. =(

i still have to get around to trying to watch the anime

The VN is 10/10 but I've talked about that a bit before so I won't rehash it here.

I've still got room for two more. I'm probably going to use them on popular characters I like who might have a chance at missing the bracket (already used a few on Tifa, Sub-Zero, and Roxas).

actually I wonder if anyone would get on board with Tali from Mass Effect

although the series' heyday has passed so she's probably not as popular as she once was

maybe I should nominate Rinoa now that she's in Dissidia so she can get another (hopefully fairer) shake at it

actually I wouldn't mind nominating Locke now for the same reason since he'll finally have some artwork that doesn't suck (seems to have done wonders for Kefka)

actually I'd be down for nominating a visual novel character who's more famous as an anime character because that might be the closest we get to crossing the line (other than Geralt from Witcher, I guess) and I'd like to see just how well/poorly they'd do

I just don't know who we should go for. Maybe Okabe from Steins;Gate. I'd have to be able to get others on board with it, of course.

Though if you're looking for MAX STRENGTH I think it has to be Saber (FSN)

Oh right, I forgot about Fate/stay night. Actually, now that I think about it, I think an F/SN character was in one of the vote-ins a long time ago.

Huh, that's not too bad, considering the competition.

Oh right, he did. CBIX had way too many characters in it.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5160-character-battle-ix-division-2-round-1-bowser-vs-archer-vs

Eh, nevermind. This is probably a bad idea.

Although I might nominate Meta Knight looking at that poll because my word that dude has never had a good draw so there's no telling how strong he actually is

I currently have Okabe, Kurisu, Tomoya, and Shion (Higurashi) nominated so I'm definitely in favor of something like this.

Also forget vote-ins, Archer literally made it into the contest in the admittedly enormous field in 2013. I also think it was due to a board 8 rally if I remember, but whatever.

edit: dammit guys

Well, at the very least, if I'm going to do it now, we'd have to go for a Steins;Gate character because F/SN has had its chance.

I think either Steins;Gate (likely Kurisu, though Okabe is probably close) or switching the F/SN nom to Saber would be the best chance for a VN character to do well.

I don't expect a strong showing from any VN option though. (Which doesn't matter a lot to me personally when choosing what to nominate, but yeah)

I think Okabe is probably the most popular Steins;Gate character

although I think the fact that the VN character designs look pretty different (and far more sparkly) than their anime counterparts might hurt them anyway

Well, it's usually safe to assume the main character is the most popular. There have been relatively few exceptions to this over the years, and it's mostly been Final Fantasy stuff (Kefka, Vivi, Auron, Balthier)

I kind of feel like it would be Kirisu, but I guess you're right that there's an absurdly large main character bias. Any of them will be super weak, though.

Okabe is also my favorite character.

The main reason I think Kurisu would be the strongest Steins;Gate entrant is because it seems like the anime fanbase tends to like female characters more than male characters, as a general rule.

It's not clear how much overlap that has with the GameFAQ's population, but this is how I see things at any rate.

I definitely think Okabe would be the strongest SG character. The fanbase mostly loves him, in addition to him having the main character advantage. He actually has more favorites than Kurisu does on myanimelist, for example.

Sherlock episode 2 beated. It didn't seem to have any direct parallels to any of the stories, but I did notice several similarities to "The Five Orange Pips," which is one of my favorite Holmes stories.

One of the characters felt oddly reminiscent of Claire from Baccano though.

Blitzblall is kinda lame but at least it goes by quickly. Lost my first match 7-0 because I just jumped right in and I had no idea what was going on. Why was Shinra the default keeper when he can't catch anything. Scouted a couple of players and won the next one. Got the Trophy and I think I won't touch it again.

Literally never touched blitzball in X-2 when I learned you can't control the players.

I don't mind watching some CPU vs. CPU action if it's something that would be interesting, but I can't imagine blitzball is one of those things.
