Augur vs. Hancock
-
-
Vote for the man who had the stones to shoot the Son of the Pirate King in the face.
-
Some fodder guy had the stones to shoot Kizaru in the side of the head, too. Doesn't mean that I'd vote for him. I'm waiting to be persuaded, though.
-
Hmm, can't really choose. I'll wait for some campaigning.
-
OMG here you guys go!!
it doesn't matter who you vote for as long as you enjoy good artwork!! xD or… moderately good...xD
also... I'm OBVIOUSLY voting for my BB crew member there xD gotta support that crew GOD I LOVE THEM Dx!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I'm not even gonna bother with this one seeing as Auger has like no chance but at least allow me to post the wisdom of Taz here
@Taz:
My issue is that it's not just one or two things, but almost everything about her is a freaking stereotype.
-
Switches archetypes between the "cold, vain bitch", "victim" and "deluded schoolgirl with a crush". I actually don't mind the first, but the latter are unbearable when considering the fact that Big Power females ARE SEVERELY LACKING IN ONE PIECE. We are finally introduced to one and all her multiple personalities fluctuate between huge female stereotypes, two of which are extremely disempowering.
-
Her main/big attack is completely dependant on being a seductress. There's something original. Despite having similarly seductive traits, at least Alvida and Califa's powers had more to them and weren't exclusively based on sex appeal.
-
The other attack we've seen consists of her throwing hearts… Strange that it's always girls or gay guys that conveniently end up with powers like these.
-
The token girl of the Shichibukai with lowest bounty and the lamest powers revealed thus far. Even Crocodile, an opponent defeated waaaay back in Alabasta outclasses her in this department. Oda and Kishi - NOT SO DIFFERENT AFTER ALL
-
The sympathy card. Ugh. It WOULD be the token female of the group who goes all teary and angsty. Even when the group is supposed to be comprised of baddasses, the emotional inclinations/weakness of women prevail.
It's also VERY cheap plot/cop-out device that's used to excuse the hero from having to seriously fight a girl.
-
(regarding #5) So her experience made her come to the conclusion that ALL men are evil. (Because surely no men were made into slaves/raped by sickos. Nor was it a Fishman MAN that saved her or anything.) But look! The first guy that comes along showing kindness and zOMG. Time to go stupid with love!
-
(regarding #6) "Love Sickness" eh? And you will die if you do not obey this man you love? How about that, you're a slave all over again! Only this time it's less sympathetic, more pathetic. This is fanservice of a most disgusting calibre: One of the most desired women in the world, knocked off her high horse, stripped of dignity and becoming an obedient housewife whose very LIFE depends on her willingness to please her man. It's every fanboy's fantasy come true.
-
Re-occurring gags with kicking puppies and seals and cute things around. Even her shtick is based around gender cliches.
-
The second most beautiful woman in the world... does not live up to the hype. At all. She not only has the generic "OP girl" mold, but there are even a few who outdo her in the looks department. For example Camie, who has to be the most adorable little thing I've seen Oda produce to date and who's crush on Hatchan is actually endearing without making her pathetic. Hancock's design isn't terrible, it's just bland.
So in sum: with heart-heart powers, a preoccupation with beauty and trying to get into the lead guy's pants, Oda has taken all the terrible cliches of Magical Girl anime and made it into Boa Hancock. And this is the only high-ranking female revealed so far? A disappointment in every way imagineable.
So decide for yourself whether you want to vote for the guy we don't know much about, or the woman who we know to be complete crap.
-
-
omg… stares at Shipanmans avi ... that strip in the middle of Van Augers shirt isnt' WHITE!??? FUCK xD I screwed up... oh well xD love your avi! GO FAN AUGER! You're ahead just... for now x_x.
-
I voted for the one with the gun. Seriously, those things could kill you!
-
I guess I'll wait til later to be persuaded. I'm immune to negative campaigns, though.
-
For once, I don't really feel like voting for any of them.
-

But it's just so easy to make fun of Hancock :ninja:
-

I can't help it… I second this xD
-
just gonna go ahead and vote boobs. whatev
-
just gonna go ahead and vote boobs. whatev
D: awww… do I need to draw Van Auger shirtless so he'll have some fans voting for his chest???
-
I voted for Boa Hancock.
-
Vote for Hancock cause she helps Luffy on his quest to save Ace!
Vote for Hancock if you hate the Tenryuubito.. lazy to campaign for her cause she'll probably win :3
-
I'll just leave this here:
oCLqdmi7ogw
-
I voted for the sexy one.(No fangirls, I don't mean Augur) :getlost:
-
It occurs to me that there seem to be more people complaining about how
A) they don't like Hancock
B) Van Augur doesn't stand a chancethan there are actual people who seem to like Hancock.
So, vote for the guy; what can it hurt?
On another note, this is pretty much the exact same match Van Augur had in the First Round when it comes down to it.
Alvida - holds her looks in high esteem, is considered attractive by everybody but Luffy apparently.
Hancock - holds her looks in high esteem, is considered attractive by everybody but Luffy apparently.
Hancock - kicks around dumb animals.
Alvida - kicked Coby around.
Alvida - dark hair and curvaceous figure.
Hancock - dark hair and curvaceous figure.
Alvida - first female pirate in the series.
Hancock - first female Shichibukai.
Subtract their Devil Fruit and what's the difference?
-
The difference is this time Van Augur is losing, and it is making this puppy very very sad.
Make the puppy happy and vote Van Augur. -
Even if Hancock doesn't have a DF, she still has a powerful haki.
… who would you vote for? A lady kicking annoying baby animals, or a guy shooting annoying birds?

omg… xDDD that is so true... SO SO TRUE.
-
Beautiful artwork as usual Coral. I wish I could color like that. I know it'd be asking a lot but I almost wish you could do one like that for every single match.
-
Vote for Hancock! Since Hancock reminds me of Kim Kardshinhan and they look almost the same.
Kim:
!
Boa:
!
So vote for Hancock
-

Seagulls are the oceanic equivalent of pigeons; have you ever had any interaction with the latter? Most people who have will assure you that pigeons are total bastards who rightfully deserve their "rats with wings" nickname. Many feel the same way about their sea-faring brethern.
So Van Augur is performing a public service by shooting seagulls.
Which also makes him Sengoku's worst possible opponent.

OH MY GOD I so want to SO BAD O.O but my peach died Dx UWAAAH I could just.. use another close one though… xD
thank you so much for the compliment btw ;___; <3 that means a lot coming from you eeeee <3
-
Seagulls are related to pigeons; have you ever had any interaction with the latter? Most people who have will assure you that pigeons are total bastards who rightfully deserve their "rats with wings" nickname. Many feel the same way about their sea-faring brethern.

so killing animals a good thing?:blink:ok then.
i voted for Boa cause she is the diva of the sea and there is very few that is as bad ass as a diva.
-
going with auger.
the recent anime eps just remind me how badass boa could have been before
luffy tamed the shrew. -

Thanks for helping me make my decision. Van Auger/Augur it is.
-
OH MY GOD… it was the fate of those seagulls to die. They could've moved at the last second.
Boa Hancock could've stepped over those adorable animals but she chose to kick them MERCILESSLY. She's a bitch... well she was. Now she's just Luffy's fan girl. -
Magellan gives us a reason to vote for Hancock…
-
even if Boa is a b****
She is hot and Auger is meeeh
-
Voted For The Man With The Gun!
-
even if Boa is a b****
She is hot and Auger is meeeh
D: awwwww… damn you people... I'll show you hot Auger... goes to draw
-
OMG here you guys go!!

O-OMG! THAT IS GORGEOUS! worships Coral, votes Augur, pushes Urouge to do so as well and runs to leave for work << >>
-
We know next to nothing about Van Augur, and he's still a better character than Hancock! Voted Augur. Also, Ubiq's point is awesome and true.
-
Well, Van Augur did express regret over the fact that one of the seagulls didn't die instantly; has Hancock ever done the same for any of the animals she's injured? Hell, no. The poor things are just going to get kicked over and over again without her ever feeling remorse.
Van Augur also provided dinner for the Straw Hats, which made Sanji's life easier and also gave Luffy a good meal. Hancock's main interaction with Luffy nearly lead to his death at the hands of Magellan. So really, who's the bigger friend to the Straw Hats?
-
im voting for the sniper!!!!
-
Both lame characters that should have been eliminated in the first round. Neither of them deserves my vote. :getlost:
-

http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj256/disneyfreak007/hancockvsauger.jpgMagellan also gives us a reason to vote for Van Augur in the panel directly following the one you posted.
Any man who takes a faceful of extremely hazardous chemicals and doesn't even flinch or change expression is a badass indeed.
-
Boa Hancock give this man a stone watch that turns anything to stone.
T_rP5SDvyKI
Vote Hancock for creating this scene.
-
So it begins!
I voted Hancock.
-
Hancock can take down Luffy with a kiss pistol, and Augur can't even lay a single bullet wound on a logia user.
-
Augur might as well go ahead and turn to stone already. XD
-

I think I'll avoid eating in Tennessee.
-
Voted for Boa Hancock, as I actually find her to be amusing.
Blackbeard's crew can go eat a sack of baby dicks.
-
i'm with boa this round
-
I think I'll avoid eating in Tennessee.
A good meal by Luffy's standards.
That's not to say that I don't know people perfectly content to eat pickled pig's feet.
-
Ha, I think it's hilarious that the food comment came from the same person who referred to them as winged rats.
-
I completely agree with that long and UTTERLY ACCURATE explanation of why Hancock sucks. I find it absolutely baffling that anyone could like her beyond mere design. She's about as far from a real human character as you can get.
That said, I still have hope that Oda will prove himself to be capable of producing other good female characters. Kuina was good, Robin is great. I hope Lola's mom will impress us!
