Best of the Best in 2009?










And it's back!

The character must have premiered in the year of the contest (2009), though there are exceptions.

-Characters who previously premiered in literature or comics are eligible based on their film/tv/game appearances.
-Characters who previously premiered in media appearances may be considered new if the interpretation of the character is new (ex. Gotham's "Batman" characters) but only that particular version of the character is eligible.
-Characters will go by their American release date.

Yeah, those rules are always gonna have some detractors (and I'll admit that it's not a perfect rule) but we're 8 years in now so let's just roll with it.

-Each user gets 10 nominations every 24 hours.
-Please specify what each nomination is from
-3 nominations will guarantee a character gets in
-More than 3 nominations will get the characters higher seeding
-First 64 characters with 3 or more will make it in.

Any questions, just ask

The contest will start as soon as I finish the Best Villain Song ranking

Leonardo Da Vinci (Assassins Creed II)
Will have to veto this one just because that's a real person.

I'd be willing to make some exception for characters that are highly fictionalized versions of real people (ex. Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter) but for the most part real people are excluded.

I mean it is a fictional version of Leonardo making a bunch of assassin devices and shit so don't see why it wouldn't count.

I'd have to look into it, I don't know much of anything about the series, so in the meantime anyone else can chime in

General rule of thumb is that if it's like a remake or the same story then probably not

Generally I think the easiest way to determine it is just ask yourself when nominations "does this feel like a new character or new interpretation?" If the answer is no, I suggest nominating something else

Parts of it are remade from the original. My opinion is that they shouldn't count unless the characterization is wildly different from the first anime (e.g. Selim Bradley)

This does technically go for Bayonetta too. At the time when we did 2010 New Characters we were doing international dates so it's a tricky situation.

Looked back at the old bracket and yeah, no Bayonetta or FF characters, so they'll still be eligible

I don't remember when it switched from international to American release dates, I usually just copy/paste most of the rules from the previous year tbh
