Thank you for the Tourney LIGHT!!!!

 

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

are you blaming us for not picking any female characters or blaming mangakas for not making a lot of good designs for women

 

[Logiko]

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

It's mostly the latter.

 

[Logiko]

Mouai

 

[Light D Lamperouge]

Soo.. how many women managed to get into the top 30 ?

3 out of like 12 nominated ones.

 

[Light D Lamperouge]

Thank you for the Tourney LIGHT!!!!

Zonji, you technically won.


How's it feel after those round 1 exits lol?

 

[Logiko]

3 out of like 12 nominated ones.

Don't worry, it's not a big deal. It was a nice tournament. It just reveals a lot about the place of women in general in the manga industry and in the eyes of people. There is still a long way to go.

 

[MonochromeYoru]

Thanks for the rigged tourney Lighto

 

[GrandmasterChef Zonji]

Zonji, you technically won.

Lol It feels good tbh

 

[notAfanboy]

Solid top 10 designs. My boy Nanami made it to #8


Skull Knight has a cool design. I have read Berserk, but dont like its dark and gloomy setting (dont like horror/dark fantasy in general).

Did not expect Goatjo and Kakashi being #5-6, lol.

Law is cool, but wish Loki was at #3 instead.

Kanki will be remembered for years, good to see him close to top 10. Stopped reading Kingdom after his death and current discussions from Kingdom readers suggest that I made the right decision
As for Tobirama being in top 10, I guess it has more to do with how his character is portrayed and his hate for Uchihas than his design

Thanks to Light. What's next?

 

[Owl Ki]

Most manga discussed here are either shonen (young boy) or seinen (young man).

Sassenachs complaining about the prevalence of male characters in comics designed for a male target demographic might as well be complaining about the excessive number of girly horses in My Little Pony.

 

[AL sama]

there are plenty of amazing designs of female characters but most people here are not aware of them

pretty simple

Was just informing you of the numbers since you asked br0.

 

[Light D Lamperouge]

Thanks for the rigged tourney Lighto

Thanks, I tried my best.

 

[Light D Lamperouge]

What's next?

Good question.


I don't know. I'd be down for something that wasn't done yet, maybe like the rivalry stuff. Or something that could help discover new gems, like smth smth underrated etc. I don't know lol.


Though, I will be a bit busy these days, so maybe someone else could do the honours.

fam don't bother

 

[Bad English]

Speedwagon is top 1 idc

 

[DarkWitch]

I wanna host a Pokémon popularity contest since we are going through a drought. Might open signups today or tomorrow I’m thinking.

Yeah.

Pokemon popularity contest based on designs would be nice, Fujishiro could host it like he said, and Light can take a bit of a break.

Also it's not anime/manga related, so it would be something different and new.

I really like "best _____ design" or "best panel" because it makes voting easy even if you don't know the source material.

We have discussed a lot different mangakas, we could do "best manga art style" (Kubo vs Kishi vs Oda vs Murata vs Boichi vs Inoue), but there won't be that many entrances compared to the characters or panels.

My vote would be for "best manga weapon design" or "best vehicle design" simply because we had a lot of characters. Not sure if we get a lot of cool weapons like this, but even a sword or a gun can be interesting.

But I am also fine with "best female/male protagonist design", "best supporting character design", "best old character design", anything.

Quoting @Devilbat 's suggestion. Have you done best weapon design?
