HAVE A CHARACTER WITH A BOWLCUT? COME WATCH THEIR ASS GET BEAT!!!!!

this is a tournament about characters with bowlcuts!

submissions will likely end September 1st. it would be great if you rb'd this so i could get submissions!! also the date may extend if something is an issue <3

HERE IS THE LINK TO THE SUBMISSION FORM

form for if you'd like to be tagged every round

characters that have bowlcuts for specific scenes/time periods are allowed (examples: a character who has a bowlcut for a comedic scene. a character that only has a bowlcut in one of their comic runs and none of their other ones. a character who has a bowlcut for one movie/episode/season and it changes. etc.)

characters who are only described to have a bowlcut are allowed (book/podcast/a media without image or video) but you have to send proof (a quote) before i'll include them

if i, the mod, ever think a haircut is not a bowlcut i will post a poll before the tournament asking if it's a bowlcut

i will not accept characters from harry potter, south park, or hetalia. this list may change but those medias make me uncomfortable </3

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

[ultimate-tragic-couples-showdown]

Simple question- which couple/polycule is your favorite?

Propaganda for Yoo Joonghyuk x Kim Dokja x Han Sooyoung : "The definition of "doomed by the narrative".

No propaganda submitted for Utenanthy.

WELCOME TO PLANTONIC PALS PUNCHOUT!

If Saturday cartoons taught us anything it’s that The Power Of Friendship is the ultimate weapon that can defeat any obstacle! But can it defeat…other friendships!? 

This tournament will pit Dynamic Duo vs Dynamic Duo to see who has the Ultimate Friendship. They will do this by punching other pairs in the face winning polls! The competition will be single-bracket-style (because that’s the only kind I know how to do lol)

[SUBMIT HERE!] but read the rules first :3

Rules: 

👉Characters must be (or once were) canonically friends, which means they’ve had on-screen/in-text buddy time together, or have mentioned their friendship explicitly. Characters who start as friends but lose their friendship are allowed! 👉No real people, real people playing themselves (DSMP, etc), or country-fictions (Hetalia, etc). I may accept pets or OCs IF they get multiple submissions from different people and there’s room left in the bracket (I feel bad when they lose :(  )  👉No Harry Potter or Attack on Titan. 👉Pairs only. As fun as groups are, I worry that having more characters on their team may sway the votes. Characters with DID or who otherwise have alternate identities count as a single character. 👉Canonically romantic pairs must have significant on-screen/in-text platonic time, and/or emphasis placed on buddy-hood over romance throughout the story.* (a good example is Phoenix Wright & Miles Edgeworth) This is semi-subjective & somewhat controversial, so I’ll be prioritizing purely platonic friendships. Friends With Benefits™️ are totally fine as long as they are actually friends.  👉Familial pairs are fine as long as their buddy-hood is emphasized throughout the story. (a good example is Goofy & Max) 

*Sometimes characters only get together late into the story, or use the Power of Friendship even after getting together, or their relationship is on the vague side, so these duos may be included ^^ Essentially, even if they get together romantically, you’re still submitting them as friends, and confirming that their relationship is portrayed as comfortably platonic more than romantic/pining. 

I don’t expect to get popular so I don’t currently have plans for an upper limit, but we need a minimum of 30 pairs to run! Feel free to submit multiple pairs! (Just do it in a new submission lol) I’ll also only be accepting 1 pair per series. More entries for the same pair mean they’re more likely to get in :3

As for me, my name is Murphy (he/him or she/her), I’m arospec, Autistic, and I’ve never run a tournament before. I can’t make polls on desktop for unknown reasons & barely know how to use mobile, so this blog might be a bit…scuffed, at first ^^; please be patient with me.

Shameless self-plug: if you like my me, please check out my [YouTube channel] where I do art & science education, or my [Warriors/art tumblr]. Thank you!!

VOTE VAH MANTA!!!!!!!

playable Zelda

Zelda was intended to be the original playable character instead of Link- or she would have been the playable character of Skyward Sword's 'Second Quest'. The credits scenes, which show parts of her journey, shows some of the setting of what it would have been.

Vah Manta

In the Hateno ancient tech lab, there is a seemingly out of place figure on the ceiling that has the appearance of a manta ray. In the artbook, there is scrapped concept art of a manta ray divine beast, and it is theorized that it was supposed to be plaguing Lurelin village. Zora’s domain is plagued by Waterblight ganon, who is… Spouting too much water? Which, in all honesty, shouldn't be an issue to the Zora. If it was Iceblight instead, freezing up the resevoir would make much more sense, and actually be a pressing issue for the Zora. Meanwhile, Waterblight attacking a village by the sea makes a lot of sense, as there is an ocean to mess with and wreak havoc. Lurelin village feels useless, and being a location to a 5th divine beast makes a lot of sense, considering how all the current divine beasts are is the corners of the map, except for Zora’s Domain’s divine beast which is nestled upwards a bit, as if to leave room for a 5th one. The ocean outside of Lurelin village has tons of coral and fish that aren’t used anywhere else, and you can barely see them in game without glitching yourself underwater. This, alongside the fact that the Zora Greaves are the only armor piece that’s part of the Zora set that doesn’t give you any extra abilities in water, had led many fans to theorize that the Zora Greaves were originally meant to allow Link to swim underwater.
