RAGESTAR

uh...what makes me so special? I'm just an average roleplayer, lol. Well, I would use Crimson, but he's sort of busy...what with being a husband and father of 3 and all, lol.

since I changed my name from Ragestar to RAGE? XD Oh well, lol. I'll just go get another character link and let you decide whether he's in or not. Be right back. How about this guy?: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/black-masquerade-r7276

this whole time? How long have you not realized that I'm Crimson? XD

Are human characters allowed?

Well, there are still gonna be some extremely powerful characters in there, to be honest, but in the other 2 rounds, it doesnt matter how strong someone is, so anyone could win.

Honestly? Its mostly because I was afraid of starting a shitstorm of "no MY obscure/stronger anime character is better, and should be the one who participates!!", lol. So, I ended up choosing a mix of popular, powerful, weak, and obscure characters. Thats also why I made 2 challange catagories, other than fighting.

As the title suggests, this is an anime/manga character tournament! I will list 12 anime/manga characters, and it will be up to you, the viewers, to decide who is the best! However, to avoid simple bias, there will be 3 challange catagories to vote for who's the best. The first will be a debate of who has a better personality or character style. The second will be who has the better character design, based on creativity and uniqueness. And third will be a simple question; who would win in a fight? For that catagory, however, there will be 2 rounds. Round one, will be the two characters in their base forms, so no transformations or powerups are allowed. Round two, will be the 2 characters in their strongest form. Rule 1: no being biased. Give the other character a chance, be they your favorite or not. If another character is proven to be more powerful than another, then you cannot simply justify the losing sides victory with a simple "because". Rule 2: give proof. If, during the battle round, you have an opinion of one character's power over another, but no one believes you, don't argue, just give proof. Show scans, post videos, give character quotes; anything but pointless arguing. Rule 3: no arguing. You may debate, and you may defend a character, but please, do NOT start a pissing contest. Debate civilly, or this thread will get locked quite fast. Rule 4: if you must post scans of a manga, and that scan contains spoilers, then please try to put in a spoiler box. Simple as that. Rule 5: have fun debating! I'm making this thread for just that reason; fun! Debate, deny, and act like Pheonix Wright all you want, but remember; its just a thread. Contestants bracket: 1: Naruto Uzumaki vs Yusuke Urameshi 2: Monkey D. Luffy vs Natsu Dragneel 3: Ichigo Kurosaki vs Meliodas (Nanatsu no Taizai) 4: Allen Walker vs Gon Freecs 5: Saitama (One Punch-Man) vs Jin Mo-Ri (God of Highschool) 6: Toriko vs Akira Kongou (Kongou Banchou) 7: Sawada Tsunayoshi vs Haru Glory (RAVE master) 8: Kazuki Muto (Busou Renkin) vs Negi Springfield (Negima!) 9: Maaka Alburn/Soul Evans vs Edward Elric 10: Jio Freed (O-Parts Hunter) vs Alucard Hellsing 11: Kenshiro (Fist of the North Star) vs Guts (Berserk) 12: Ash Ketchum/Pikachu vs Tai/Agumon (Digimon) Battle Conditions: speed equalized if needed, no CIS or PIS (character/plot induced stupidity) and no BFR (battle field removal). I'll add a pole later. Go nuts. :3

Just novels, and it has to be high/epic fantasy, not just fantasy. Bump! We still need a few more players. :3 3 more players, to be exact. o3o

Feel free to sign up with another character, though. As long as their vrom a high/epic/mideavil fantasy novel, and they aren't already taken, then I'll probably accept them. Le bump

I don't know...it kinda died off quickly, when I started it.

Sorry, I'm only accepting canon characters from epic/high fantasy novels.

Sure, I guess. Who are the characters? Of course!

hmm...well, from what I've heard, the book is so much different from the movie that it's nearly impossible to compare them. It's a childrens book...like, not far from Clifford the big red Dog, and Aurthur kind of childrens books. Plus, as crazy as it sounds, I'm not sure if Toothless even exists in the books. We could try and see if movie version can fit, bjt I'm pretty sure the book version wont cut it, lol. Although, be warned that the RPs contents might be a bit more adult directed, compared to what he's experienced... XD

Well...that's a tough call...you see, I originally planned to only allow epic fantasy novel characters, and since Hiccup has a book, you would think he counts...but the problem is that the book version of HtTYD is very different from the movie So I'm not sure, to be honest...

Sounds fair enough. Lets go with that. The RP will be open if anyone would lik to join.

Accepted!! But Rand might have to be nerfed...he's quite OP, iirc. Anyone else care to join? We have internet cookies!!

Big bump!!

I just meant the Pokémon anime...or, at least anything save for the original series. I love the Pokémon video games, though.

Isn't that a bit of a generalization? I mean, sure, a ton of anime do indeed survive off of merchendising, but not all of them. There are countless modern anime that are genuinly good, and aren't "just 30 minute excuses to sell merchendise". One Piece, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Fullmetal Alchemist, D. Gray-Man, Fairy Tail, Toriko, Death Note, Hunter X Hunter, and Nanatsu no Taizai, are all prime examples of quality anime, with good plots and great characters, all produced after the 1960's. Throwing all modern anime under the same catagory as Pokémon is rather insulting to serious, quality anime like these. Just because you don't like DBZ or Pokémon, doesn't mean all modern anime are 30 minute commercials, you know.
