This is a real epic match for a final, I love how close it's stayed virtually all the time.
Knowing the mods though Satori will take over any second now.
-
Voted Bon.
Supported him all the way through, and with Nami gone, he's the only one I'd like to see win this thing.

Man, this final is clooooose!
Go Bon-boy! :3
-
This is gonna be a close one. Keep at it Bon chan!
-
As much as I love Bon-chan, he doesn't have the same level of villiany as Crocodile either, in other words he has too much of a good guy spirit in him.
Even though Crocodile fought beside Luffy in the war and stopped an attempt to behead Ace, he gave his reason as he didn't want the Marines to have their way. Classic reasoning for a villian, they don't like the main enemy at the time to get their way, so even it means teaming up with a previous enemy (Luffy & Whitebeard Pirates), or saving a person belonging to an enemy organization/group/crew (Ace), then so be it. That team up is better to swallow than a win for bigger enemy.
I support Crocodile as first true villian to win the tournament!
-
AP needs a Real hero! That´s the Okama Way!
-
No idea who to vote for. They both deserve it, so I'll flip a coin,
-
Birds may stop chirping,
and flowers may rot and die away,
even the buildings will crumble with the pass of time.
And all these are terrible things.
But friendship is eternal.
We´ll fight to keep it alive.
OKAMA WAAAY! -
vote for crocodiles !
-
While I really love Bon Clay, I'd prefer to see Crocodile win because he's a character who really raised the bar when it comes to villains in One Piece (and arguably, manga in general)
Plus, his actions in the war gave him a very ambiguous nature which only made him more interesting and got everyone to be curious about what he'll do in the New World.
You can do it Croc! -
Swan are really chill animals.
Swan: Oh, you want to hit me. That´s cool kid. Knock yourself out. I´m just gonna keep swimming.
-
AH AH AH AH !! Oh Flamingo we're the most stylish bad guys ever. AH AH AH !!
-
Bon-Chan, you don't have to put on the fight now
Those days are over
You don't have to fight magellan in Impel Down
Bon-chan, you don't have to destroy Alabasta tonight
Beat up Cobra for baroque
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's rightBon-chan, you don't have to rescue mugi-chan now
Bon-chan, you don't have to rescue mugi-chan now
Rescue Mugi-chan now, Rescue Mugi-chan Now
Rescue Mugi-chan now, Rescue Mugi-chan Now
Rescue Mugi-chan now -
You can vote for the cool villian and make something new happen in the end.
Or just let another good guy win (this never happened before,only 7 times :ninja: )
Be original,don't vote for the good guy for once.But Mr 2 is not too bad either. Just same old,same old.

Come on! This is Bon year! There are more twos in 2012 than zeros!
ok, i don´t know. It´s just that i´m tired.

Ok, here comes the summary.
We all love Bon, we all love Croc. Well, the sensible ones among as anyways. It's a tough choice, that much is definitely true. But, let's look at this from all the perspectives we can, preferably upside down, because that's my favourite perspective.
Bon-Chan is a wonderful character. He's introduced as a friend, quickly turns out to be a threatening enemy, barely gets defeated, then returns at Impel Down to fight with Luffy together and ends up being an amazing ally, sacrificing himself. Accordingly, he's been in the finals already against Whitebeard. Tournament wise, you could say he's got Enel's spirit with him, and me being one of the greatest Enel supporters here (only after Gekko and Masterking if I dare say so) values that.
HOWEVER.
Crocodile, man, Sir Crocodile. He's the first actual big-arc villain, with a massive build up to his introduction, after Mihawk the second Shichibukai introduced and, thanks to the former's display of power dominating Zoro in their fight, is accompanied by huge hype. Which he lives up to, every great second of his appearance. Crocodile is one of the characters that, even being introduced as a grand-scale villain, is just likeable, a character that you want to see defeated nonetheless, but whatever he does, he does it with class. Luffy standing up to him for the sake of his friends is wonderful since you just know how immensely powerful he must be, he's the head of this enormous gangster mafia group where the crew already had problems fighting against Mr. 3 and Goldenweek (granted, that was a hax fight on Little Garden, but that wasn't apparent at the time) - one could only imagine how powerful the teams of Mr. 2, Mr. 1, and finally, the Boss himself had to be.
Having Robin on his side is not a bad thing either, who was introduced as soon as Whiskey Peak - man, all that build up. Crocodile is an outstanding character, a despicable, evil, slightly insane, but still likeable and awesome villain, that defeated Luffy technically 3 times and pushed him to his utmost boundaries at the time. Being the first Logia our protagonists faced is another bonus, making him seem invincible at the time, although now of course, Haki, bleh, whatever.The thing is, despite being defeated by Luffy at the end, you never had the feeling he was "weak", and then he suddenly reappeared at Impel Down, too! Oh man, that re-introduction, saying he wants to take Whitebeard's head, who we know was the "most powerful man in the world"… Then helping Luffy and tagging along only to fulfill his own goal, but teaming up with him despite having been defeated previously, not wanting to admit he actually WANTS to help him - as we've seen when he single handedly stood in the way of Akainu, charging after Luffy, and at the same time protecting a big group of the Whitebeard pirates. Despite his relatively early introduction (and defeat), he's still a powerhouse. And you know he's going to be back, in the New World, stronger than ever.
Now, regarding who deserves the title - it's Crocodile. He could be the first villain to take the title, and after Enel's defeat last year, I think that as an Enel-supporter, my vote has to go with Crocodile now as well, since they are both fantastic villains. Bon-Chan is great, but it wouldn't feel as epic if he won. It wouldn't be "first villain" or "first non-Strawhat" or something like that. "First villain", now that's awesome.
So, all of you, think about it, think about who would be more memorable taking the title, think about the fact that no matter if Enel was defeated by Bon-Chan - as a villain, he would support Crocodile. And that's what you should do!

He loves Nature, he loves AP! Vote Bon!

wooo bon kurei caught up!
LETS HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY
BEREVEVERU INU THER POORAH UR FUHRENSHIPPE -

Crocodile, Bon is a good guy but in terms of story character I like Crocodile way more, especially after Impel down and war saga

Still that much? god, i won´t be able to make it T^T
Vote friendship, vote bon!

Voted for Bon-chan. Just to clarify, I love both characters, both deserve to win the damn thing…But Crocodile will be reappearing again in the story for sure, he will have more chances in the future. However, Bon-chan was already left behind in Impel Down (Glad we discovered he is alive!), and we will probably not be seeing him again till the end of the manga (And that if we see him), this might be his last chance. Besides, he has already lost a final (Against Whitebeard), I think that after all this time he truely deserves the tittle a little bit more than Corodile!! So Bon, it is.
-
THIS MATCH!! T_T
Although of course I'm elated that Bon-Chan is back in the lead. Sorry to steal from MasterkingJC, but this expresses my current feelings perfectly.

You've got this, Crocodile. You've got this.
-
I know it's been posted a million times before, but if you watch this you'll know exactly why Bon-chan deserves his crown
If we were to abandon our friend, when he's fought his way to the final for us … would you be able to enjoy your breakfast tomorrow?
edit: The answer is no. You wouldn't.
