      You folks ready for the big showdown between Bon Kurei and Crocodile? Got your campaigns all ready to go?

      Well, if not, you have at least one more day to prepare for the big final event! In the meantime, lets see how these two winners do!

      Vivi versus Banchi!

      I don't know if they ever even met, and Vivi wasn't in the organization long, but… hey, we want to know who is liked more!

          Oh come on, who would pick a regular girl over a cigar-smoking turtle? Hell, I would pick the turtle if Vivi wasn't a choice!

          But since the princess remains in infamy…..Vivi it is.

            It kinda depends on a situation and amount of booze:ninja:

              Voted Vivi because I expect her to be massacred.

              The poll question though… that's a tough choice. I loved both Legos and Lincoln Logs growing up. I really have to think about that one.

                  Just remember, folks…..Vivi's bond with the Straw Hats created this great scene:

                  [hide]

                  [/hide]

                  An emotionally satifsying conclusion to a great saga, and the blunt of the message isn't told with words. Just a simple gesture.

                  ….It's really hard to believe Vivi was a finalist one year. Can I go back in time?

                    I'm afraid Banchi is actually going to win this… and that's a sad, sad thing.

                              Pretty easy Banchi vote, Vivi was boring as snot. (although the above mentioned scene is one of the series best)

                                I voted Banchi because when Vivi was in Baroque Works I couldn't stand her, sorry.
                                The only reason I like her is when she reveals who she is, lets her epic blue hair down, and yeah.

                                              In 2005, Vivi was a finalist to take the tournament, against Usopp.

                                              In 2012, Vivi's in a filler match and losing to Banchi.

                                              …..Ouch, seven years wasn't kind to her. But c'mon guys:

                                              [hide]
                                              I see "Vivi" as a choice, so we're rooting for the PRINCESS Vivi, not Ms. Wednesday the attempted whale murderer.

                                              She's a girl that loves her country. A vote for Vivi is a vote for all the great princesses

                                              Princess Zelda

                                              Princess Jasmine

                                              Princess Bubblegum

                                              And of course, Princess Di

                                              (may she rest in peace) [/hide]

                                                    In 2012, Vivi's in a filler match and losing to Banchi.

                                                    …..Ouch, seven years wasn't kind to her.

                                                    Such blatant disrespect to Banchi. For shame.

                                                                                              But you let me down. Oda let me down. Banchi, you didn't appear in the Decks of the World cover story and that broke my heart. Broke it real good. In to a million million pieces.

                                                                                              I'm sorry, Banchi, so so sorry, but I had to vote for Vivi.

                                                                                              But… you could of still voted for him..

                                                                                                      Rereading this chapter (ch 130) has swayed me to vote for Vivi.

                                                                                                      That's nice. I remember a couple of moments from memory. Like subtle character dynamics that typically goes on in the story.

                                                                                                      I remember in Chapter 133(?) Luffy leaves to scale the mountain with Nami on his back along with Sanji for backup. After Vivi and Ussop set them off, Dalton then asked them to come inside where it's warmer. But Vivi immediatly insisted to stay outside with Ussop in agreement. Dalton then smiles. It was very subtle, but really good. It wasn't implied with words, but they stayed outside because they knew that their friends were out there going on a life risking mission in the cold.

                                                                                                      Vivi's cool.
