      Went with Perona. I have a thing for gothic lolita types.

              Oh right I remember now: I wont vote for a character just based on hype.

              Perona it is. I think its time we gave her a second chance.

                Potential > Hype =/= Potential. Tell me, Daz, what about Kidd's popularity is just hype? There certainly is some involved, but I'd say Kidd is actually one of the rare examples of hype being substantiated by on panel action.

                  I think we should stop hiding our personal preferences behind buzzwords. And hype is highly subjective word.
                  For one, I just like Kid more for thing he already is, not for what he can be.
                  But if Perona wins it will be only fair.

                              Oh, make no mistake, Kidds paneltime has been spent being considerably more entertaining than several of the other supernovas, and I certainly like him more than someone like Law based on personality alone. Despite that I just feel that he's slightly (if entertainingly) deriative, and that too much hinges on badass stuff he might do in the future.

                              Someone like Perona has no potential for future relevance outside a final showdown, but like other wrapped-up characters, I consider that a strength. Many of the major arc-overarching characters tend to lose me after a while, becoming less than they once were (just look at the Straw Hats) whereas arc-specific characters like Genzo, Kureha, Gedatsu etc just have their one off moment of undiluted greatness.

                              But thats just my personal preference.

                              –- Update From New Post Merge ---

                              I'm not saying Perona is Kureha level btw, but she served her role as an eccentric thug well, and gave Usopp a decent fight.

                                        Campaigners convinced me to vote for Perona.

                                        Surprisingly close match?

                                          This is really close.

                                          Want to do another campaign for Perona but I'm really busy today. If she makes it to the next round, I'll try upping my game there (depending on who she's against, of course).

                                          over the votes of a princess called Ghost Peron(a)
                                          We've all gone crazy
                                          voting all day and voting all night
                                          falling over ourselves to be sure
                                          we make our vote right

                                          Oh what an epitaph, that's how to go
                                          when you're out of the story for now
                                          demand a send-off like Ghost Peron(a)
                                          It's quite a battle
                                          good for the forums in a roundabout way
                                          we've made the top slot of all the New Posts list today

                                          But who is this ghost girl Perona?
                                          Why all these cosplay pics on Image Search?
                                          What kind of princess divided the fanbase?
                                          How can we ever love her after AGOG?_ She had her moments, she had some style
                                          The best part of Thriller Bark was the scene
                                          where she Enelled when Usopp fought Ghost Peron(a)
                                          but that's all gone now
                                          as soon as the New World arc became fact
                                          she became a character of the past
                                          she'll never join the Straw Hats
                                          _You were a fun side-villain, Perona
                                          You were a female character who actually did stuff
                                          That's what we wanted, someone to remember
                                          And in the end there, you delivered

                                          (It's our funeral too?)_

                                          moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon

                                            The mouse hovers of the Perona button, but now her annoying laugh is ringing in my ear due to that youtube video.
                                            I don't know what to dooo

                                              I am pleasantly surprised this is such a close match!

                                              sooo…..I'll vote for.......Perona, then.

                                                Kidd.
                                                Not so much. Or at all.
                                                Easy vote.

                                                  This was an easy choice. I like Perona and hate Kidd. Vote goes to Perona.

                                                    I'm slightly surprised to not see some Bleach puns about Hollows for campaigns…Although given the general opinion about Bleach here lately could understand why lol.

                                                        I voted Perona, but Kidd has good potential. Oda is doing a good job with Law, so I'll assume he does a good job with Kidd as well when he appears.

                                                              So, everyone who is still undecided…...do you really want to vote against the Ghost Princess?? I guess none of you have ever seen Poltergeist? Do you really want to anger all the ghosts of the world and risk being haunted for years? Well…..its your decision of course. I just thought I might warn you. This guy here.....he is really pissed off already that his beloved Perona might lose in the first round. If you vote for Kidd, even Perona wont be able to hold him back and calm his wrath!!

                                                              Be prepared for him!!

                                                              !
                                                              ! He won`t be so friendly anymore, guys!!
