I decided to say screw it and make the season 2

It's all the same as last year, and if you're new the rules are in the form notes.

I added an extra space for images this time but if your character was submitted last year then there's no need to add an image since I still have the images! If it's a new character it would really mean a lot if you added an image, but its by no means required at all.

Lastly I wanna remind everyone that no character is immediately in the tournament!! No matter how popular or obvious they are there's no guarantees. Aside from Kirby. I'm on the fence on whether I should put him as an automatic entry or save him to the end to make him battle the winner of this year. Maybe you guys can help with that. idk.

Anyway here's the form!! Reblogs are appreciated and help grow the tournament! Thanks to everyone who submits!

Propaganda

Narrator/Developer Guy

he's such a silly lil guy and sometimes i feel bad for ruining him. emphasis on sometimes. it's kind of funny actually. also he created a program called D.U.C.K. whose manifestation is this rubber duck that learns to screw stuff up bc algorithms. that's gotta count for something

Sauron

The films tell us he literally has no body at the time the story takes place. He's only shown in any kind of body (humanoid, but really tall) in the prologue scene and in flashbacks. He has very few lines, but the ones he does have are in a scary, evil sounding voice with either a British or New Zealand (probably New Zealand) accent. The giant flaming eye that is most commonly associated with him is not his body, but rather a tool he uses (it's magical, all-seeing), and really just serves as a representation of him for movie purposes (it's not a literal eye in the book, but the movie needed a way to show the character and some of his power that the book just does through description)

PROPAGANDA

Flowey

Everyone always calling him edgy and evil. I mean. Yes. He is edgy. But evil? No. He's just a bit silly. Besides, what would you do if your best friend died at a young age, AND it was planned by the two of you only to regret it. Anyway. I'm not saying anything more. Because at that point I'd be infodumping about him, because that's literally just how much I like Flowey as a character. LOOK, I know nobody else will agree with me, but he is MY blorbo. At least. (And I hope other's also have him as a blorbo)

Jonathan Sims

Half the fandom will vilify him and call him stupid or an irredeemable monster for his choices, which he made because he was a little sneaky. The other half will woobify and baby him and act like he had no agency or choice in his actions and every other character is to blame for the consequences.

The classic monster/human struggle of finding one's humanity after doing unimaginable harm, Jon Sims is often morally misinterpreted as being a "good" or "bad" person, instead of someone who has done good and bad things in his very human experience of having the world's most toxic workplace and being in his 20s.

Fandom constantly asserts he’s done nothing wrong and can do no wrong however the entire podcast is about how trauma fucks people up. 4th season of the show spends a lot of time on him having a crisis about the morality of feeding off people’s fear in a way that deeply hurts them. Fandom ignores this season apart from to talk about how mean the others characters were to him in it. Characters he’s hurt are described by the fandom as ‘whiny’, ‘self-serving’, ‘a tantruming child’. He has a female narrative foil with a story arc that mirrors his. She is hated by much of the fandom

Inspired primarily by @bestgameostcrownduel and the video game tracks submitted to @its-to-the-death's Villain Song Showdown, I'm making a video game track tournament!

Rules:

Just to be clear, I'm referring to individual tracks/songs, not full soundtracks!

Tracks should be official/come from an actual game. So no fan songs, and no K/DA situations.

Related to the above, music that was created specifically for (and used in) rhythm games is allowed, but no pre-existing songs or covers of them that happened to be used in rhythm games.

Though I hope this should go without saying, I won’t be allowing any tracks from games from the Harry Potter franchise. I’m also not allowing tracks from the series The Last of Us, and may disallow other series/games if I feel the need.

Please don’t spam the submissions with the same track multiple times, but feel free to submit as many different ones as you want.

I do require a link to the track. If you can’t find (or upload) it anywhere online, it’s not getting in, sorry.

The rules may be updated if I remember anything important I’ve left out, but that’s all of them for now. So beyond that, go wild! I’m tentatively setting the end date for the submission period to February 25; it may be extended depending on how many submissions I receive.

Submissions go here! (make sure you've read the rules!)

Welcome to Chuunibyou Showdown 2024, a poll bracket for chuunibyou characters across various series. The series is geared mostly towards evil eye-type chuunis, but less common chuuni types are okay and encouraged! Below is a description from TV Tropes for those unfamiliar with the term.

In general, chuunis act like overly melodramatic know-nothing know-it-alls who think of themselves as more awesome than everyone else because of experiences, abilities, and even special powers that they clearly don’t have.

For further information on the term, feel free to consult the first question in our FAQ (Desktop only), where I describe it in more detail.

Tournament Rules

50-50 ties will go to whichever character had the most votes/is displayed as the winner (Tumblr rounds percentages to the nearest integer)

Propaganda and anti-propaganda is okay and encouraged! Just don't doxx each other or harass someone over their choice.

There will be 32 characters as well as a loser's bracket.

Submit your favorite chuunis below!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Characters who participated last year are not guaranteed to get in again this year, so please submit them! The only exception is Anghel Higure, last year's victor.

folks we have to come in clutch. yes the madoka magica guy is a bitch but this tournament impacts my livelihood as The Fahrenheit 451 Guy (Pun Intended?)

anyways here's my propaganda from round one. psionic warriors kill

EDIT: it seems i promised to send you guys the video game? here it is, and here's a walkthrough ^^

Round 3

Kyubey (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) vs. Mechanical Hound (Fahrenheit 451)

Reasons this is the Worst Pet

Kyubey:He looks cute and innocent and like he'll be the best squish-mallow pet. Instead he uses the magical girls to fight witches and doesn't tell them that the witches used to be magical girls themselves until the toll of using magic corrupts them.

Evil manipulative alien intentionally putting teenage girls through torment to harvest their negative emotion. I don’t know if it counts as a pet but since Madoka Magica is a deconstruction of magical girl shows I think Kyubey is intended to be the equivalent to the cute magic animal sidekick except oops! It views your inevitable horrifying death as an acceptable consequence and doesn’t understand why you find that so upsetting!

he's not even a pet he's an alien parasite who poses as a magical girl companion but will steal your soul

master of psychological manipulation, recruited kids to be either die in brutal combat or become child sacrifices, lied by omission so said children would accept his offer, pretended to be fatally injured to take advantage of a kind-hearted child despite having regenerative abilities, doing this all with an owo smile on his stupid little face

Does it count as a pet? Because if so, worst pet. Stinky. Torments young girls. Why are you making contracts with minors you creep? I want to kick it into the sun.

I have genuinely never hated a cat (or cat-like being) before Kuybey. That has to be a record.

Mechanical Hound-tried to kill montag. suspicious as shit. has tranquilizer built into it. little bitch basically

Erik

He later appears but for a while all we hear/see from him is his disembodied voice, singing and then speaking to the heroine.

Narrator/Developer Guy

The Narrator

Stanley looked at the screen. There was a poll, asking which of two disembodied voices was the best. They were both quite impressive, and Stanley sat in contemplation for some time, evaluating every aspect of the two choices. But in the end, there was one clearly superior option. Stanley clicked the button for "The Narrator, from The Stanley Parable"

Just like last time, four groups to decide who will get the open spots. However there is a odd number so we might do a Last Chance Preliminary poll once again. The top 3 of each group will move on to the bracket. The rest are banished to catering forever.

The preliminaries themselves will be out soon hopefully in the next hour or so. Thank you for the support and here's to another fighting game tournament.

Also been dead for a month so tagging for visibility, however you are not obligated to. If you do, then thank you very much.
