First Round Match #9

[Ubiq]

Whitey Bay: I guess I'll go first and break the ice.
Roger: Well, this is nostalgic.
Shanks: Captain!
Shiki: Roger!
Roger: Shanks! And… a giant rooster?
Shiki: That's not a joke you're allowed to make, you bastard!
Kizaru: I see some pirates that need to be taken care of.
Buster Call Vice Admirals: We'll handle it!
Vasco Shot: Well, this calls for more booze.
Fighting Fish: ...
Jinbe: I see, this arena sounds like a place that needs to be destroyed. I'll give my life to see that happen!
Kyros: It didn't use to be that bad really.
Elizabello: A king must help his people at all times.
Wapol: You lost me after "A king".
Dagama: I've told him the same thing.
Gladius: The Doffy Family isn't doing so well in this Round. We need to pick it up.
Baby 5: You need me?
Bepo: I'm bearly in the story anymore.
Dragon: That was unbearable.

[MetaMario]

Dragon, Jinbei, Kyros, and Elizabello/Dagama.

[Darth]

Allow me to enlighten you as to who should be your leading vote today.

!

Kicking pirates and causing more collateral damage then a small army, it's the man sporting most stylish suit this side of Grande Line.

[Huon]

Jinbe definitely has my vote. That's the least I can do after Jabra's amazing campaigning last year

[benjamminbrown]

Elizabello and Dagama, Jinbe, Kizaru, and Shanks!

[Katzztar]

There are two I will be voting for automatically. =
I like the idea of the 'new Black Drum Kingdom' and I'm hoping to see this royal couple at the Reverie

[hide] [/hide]

And a vote goes to one female that does not look like a nami-clone
[hide][/hide]

[madriano]

Baby 5, Bepo, Jinbe and Shanks.

[Nolus]

oh boy, I'm not finished with my main campaign yet!

Here are some apetizers!

[Supernova122]

Bepo definitely wins my vote (see my avatar).

He should win everyone else's too.

[FelRes]

Wapol Family
Whitey Bay
Kyros

rest ain't impressing me

[Devil G.]

This one is obvious, Elizabello all the way.

[hosemisnuba]

Let's go Elizabello. King's Punch your way to victory!!!!

[Sano]

Lets go Whitey Bay! She is the Ice Witch for nothing!

[labmate]

Jinbe, Kizaru, Bepo, and Wapol.

This is Jimbo's year, don't let him down.

!

[Outerspec]

16 characters of Jinbei.

[KaizokuJinbei]

time for the second coming of Jinbei!!!!!!

[freedom]

I've come down with too-many-choices dilemma…
Hmmm... sooo many to choose from...

[Kitsune Inferno]

Basco in second to last? For shame, Allwrong Park.

–- Update From New Post Merge ---

Aaaaaah, I forgot to Wapol. What am I gonna do with myself now?

[dailyfiber]

Jinbe, Kizaru, Kyros, and Shanks for me. Sorry Bepo, but I gotta go with Shanks on this one.

[madriano]

@dailyfiber:

You filthy traitor!!!

Huh… I'm sorry... :sad:

[Darth]

@madriano:

You filthy traitor!!!

Huh… I'm sorry... :sad:

He is not a filthy traitor, but a loyal servant of Justice indeed!

Besides, how can you say no to that face?

!

[madriano]

But he chose Shanks over Bepo, that's not right.

I didn't even notice Kizaru. lol

[hosemisnuba]

!
Vote Elizabello. His King's Punch can take down even Whitebeard.

[glass]

I'll try my best to support Kizaru,although I can't think of any campaigns right now.

[heart_diode]

Bepo, Kizaru, Shanks, and Whitey Bay! Really hoping for the first three at least to make it through.

[C_uggs]

My votes:

Baby 5: Maid with guns, every man´s fantasy.
Kizaru: You got to love his happy face..Well, not when if you buy a Kizaru´s plush.. No that´s creepy. O.O
Shanks: Luffy's 1° tutor, nice.
Dragon, I voted for Sabo and Koala, now is time to vote for their leader.

[Lans Hamilton]

Wow… tight match.
Voted for the awesome Elizabello and Dagama Tag-team, Jinbe (for last year's campaign), Kyros, and Whitey Bay.

Seems Jinbe is on, and Bepo's looking pretty strong.
One of Dragon or Shanks could lose at first round!

[JarmenKell]

I have no interst in Elizabello, but you just won me over.
1 vote for the king, one for Bepo and one for Kizaru cuz Darth.
One left, probably Baby 5

[SpeedoCentaur]

Voted for Baby 5 and Bepo… This is looking like a tight match

[joesephes]

Baby 5, Dragon, Shanks, and Rogers got my votes!

KICKASS, YOU GUYS! 8D

[Kubihige]

Vote for Whitey Bay.

Because she's cool.

And times like these, I wish I had more creativity and time.

Vote for Dragon too:

[Outerspec]

Jinbei and Bepo are guaranteed 1st and 2nd respectively. Kizaru and Kyros are currently tied for 4th barely behind Shanks (at 3rd) and with Baby 5 (5th place) not too far behind.

Will the legendary gladiator advance or the light speed admiral, or will they both manage to gain more votes and kick Red Hair Shanks out of the tourney?

Only votes will tell.

–-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, it looks like as I just posted Kizaru just gained 1 vote in front of Kyros.

[Katzztar]

There are several that got my attention in the match.
I really love the manga version of this lady=
She has a cool, collected personality and a better facial design than many gals in the manga

/agree

She doesn't suffer from that sameface syndrome so many other ladies do in this manga. -_-

[Tyrano]

Tried to make a gif and it's not great but here it is lol

[SpeedoCentaur]

Honestly regretting not voting for Whitey Bay…

[Sano]

Agree, Whitey Bay got a great character design.

[NateRich]

I'm surprised by Kyros beating Baby 5 and Dragon, even though it seems like the latter always gets stuck in loaded prelimsfirst rounds

[creeperqueen]

I can't believe I forgot to vote Kyros! Somehow even though I checked all the names in the match twice after I realized I ONLY had three characters selected I missed his name from the list. It only feels worse now that he's tied for 4th place with Kizaru. If Kyros misses the next round because of ONE SINGLE vote, I'm gonna regret this mistake for a long time.

[Tyrano]

Gogo Shanks!

[Big Emperor]

-Jinbe because he's winning this thing regardless.
-Baby 5 because she amuses me.
-Shiki because I really loved his design.
-Wapol family because Wapol succeeding is deliciously backwards justice.

[Warp Predator]

I'm in the nostalgic mood, but don't have time for anything, so…
NOSTALGIC TRIP WITH BABY!

For maids

!

Cleaning

!

Obscure references

!

Childhood pandering

!

VOTE B5!

(Also, if someone has that other my B5 gif from last year, one with tv shop and blood donations -
pls share, otherwise it will be lost in time)

[SunnyBlue]

Give a vote for the brave toy soldier.

[Noqanky]

Three-way tie for second place? Wow, intense

[Katzztar]

@Louis-1988:

/agree

I know! No one can say Bay is a clone of Nami or Robin, her face is as individual as Otohime-sama.
Nor is she a clone of Hancock, in fact, I think she's prettier than Hancock.

I so want to see her again now that the SH crew is in the New World.
Let's not forget that her ship is a freakin' Icebreaker!

[Sano]

Same here, I also agree that Whitey Bay had that cool look that make her different from other characters.

[Warp Predator]

One more spare vote for B5! She would do the same for you, if she could.

[Arkman]

Vote for what the straw-hat represents and beyond.

Gol D Roger > Shanks > Luffy

[valiantt]

It's a hopeless battle but…
