[Bounty1Berry]

Here are the Round 2 match-ups!!!

Kurosaki Ichigo VS Maes Hughes
Onizuka VS Makoto Shishio
Lupin III VS Maito Gai
BoBoBo-BoBo-BoBo VS Corporal Giroro
Shihouin Yoruichi VS Zakraki Kenpachi Tao Pai Pai VS Howard the Duck
Astro Boy VS Don Kanoji
Grimlock VS Edward Elric
Frieza VS Piccolo
Jigen VS Goku
Spike Speigel VS Roger Smith
Hatake Kakashi VS Heero Yuy
Rock Lee VS Don Patch
Faust VIII VS Vash the Stampede
Kurama VS L
Dio Brando VS Kon

I see the biggest fights, by far, as Frieza v. Piccolo (two DB majors) and Lee v. Patch. I know BoBobo has a strong following here, combined with general OP-tard resentment of Naruto which might be harnessable.

[rice-a-roni]

Kurosaki Ichigo VS Maes Hughes
Onizuka VS Makoto Shishio
Lupin III VS Maito Gai
BoBoBo-BoBo-BoBo VS Corporal Giroro
Shihouin Yoruichi VS Zakraki Kenpachi
Tao Pai Pai VS Howard the Duck
Astro Boy VS Don Kanoji
Grimlock VS Edward Elric
Frieza VS Piccolo Hmmmmm not sure on this one
Jigen VS Goku (this one will be close)
Spike Speigel VS Roger Smith
Hatake Kakashi VS Heero Yuy (poor Heero ;_; It was a good run)
Rock Lee VS Don Patch
Faust VIII VS Vash the Stampede
Kurama VS L
Dio Brando VS Kon

O well I sure that at least Lupin and Spike my nomintations will make it to the final rounds

[Buccaneer]

If any of Freeza's supporters are like me, then they just voted for him because they didn't like whoever he was against.

[Megadoomer]

My votes:

Kurosaki Ichigo VS Maes Hughes
Onizuka VS Makoto Shishio
Lupin III VS Maito Gai
BoBoBo-BoBo-BoBo VS Corporal Giroro (despite Bo-bobo defeating Zim, he's one of my favourite manga characters!)
Shihouin Yoruichi VS Zaraki Kenpachi
Tao Pai Pai VS Howard the Duck
Astro Boy VS Don Kanoji
Grimlock VS Edward Elric
Frieza VS Piccolo (this is going to be close)
Jigen VS Goku
Spike Speigel VS Roger Smith
Hatake Kakashi VS Heero Yuy
Rock Lee VS Don Patch (tough to choose on this one)
Faust VIII VS Vash the Stampede
Kurama VS L
Dio Brando VS Kon (Dio defeated someone I nominated, so I'm definitely not voting for him!)

I was hoping to see Kakashi vs. Gai. Well, maybe next round…

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

My predictions are:

Kurosaki Ichigo VS Maes Hughes
Onizuka VS Makoto Shishio

@LobStar:

Onizuka VS Makoto Shishio (? I don't know either)

Shishio is a main bad guy in Rurouni Kenshin, and Onizuka is the main character of Great Teacher Onizuka.

[KatanaJon1.1]

FUCK!

Dio is screwed!

I like Kon, but I can't believe Dio is probably going to lost to a rat!

[Buccaneer]

Haha, Engrish.

Kon is the horny bear from Bleach?

[CaptainUssop]

I'll be voting for:
Hughes
Shishio
Gai
Bobobo
Yoruichi
Tao Pai Pai
Don Kanonji
Ed Elric
Piccolo
Goku
Spike
Kakashi
Lee
Vash
Kurama
Kon
EDIT: Actually I think I'm gonna vote for Kurama instead of L.

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

I apologize for there not being any match today. I'm certain that lalala wants to host the first match, but he is yet to even answer my PM.

EDIT: lalala just told me that he'll have the 1st match up tommorrow.

[lalala]

yes i apologize as well. but if any of you have ever played resident evil 4 you'll understand. and the other games which i havn't played as much yet also took up a good few hours, (guitar hero, prince of persia the two thrones)

i know its pointless to state them but i like to show off

Too bad it's not Jigen versus Gai instead of Lupin just for the sheer comedic value.

Gai: GOOD GUY POSE!
Jigen shoots him in the head.

Shihouin Yoruichi VS Zakraki Kenpachi

I'm voting for him, but I don't think he'll win. So he survives Patamon to lose to a perverted teddy bear?

[lalala]

ummmmmmm. im having onizuka issues. if anyone could give me any useful information they have it would be greatly appreciated.

[Megadoomer]

Info about Onizuka.

Info about the series that he's in.

I hope these help you.

[CaptainAWB1]

Just a heads up.

Work starts again for me tomorrow, so I'll have less time to write the opening for Tao Pai Pai VS Howard the Duck. It might come late.

[warp]

um who is jigen again

[lalala]

from lupin III. heres a picture

[CaptainAWB1]

@Usopp with a Pushpop and Lalala

I am unable to come up with an ending to Tao Pai Pai vs. Howard the Duck. If one of you could write the ending for the match, I would greatly appreciate it.

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

Oh dear, this is sudden. I'll see what I can come up with.

[CaptainAWB1]

Thanks.

I'm really sorry about this. I just can't figure out how it would end. That and I'm just feeling incredibly down right now.

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

I have an important announcement to make.

"Grimlock VS Edward Elric" and "Frieza VS Piccolo" will be the last two matches of this tournament that I will be able to host. With my 5 month work time at Disney World starting in less than a week, I will not have enough free time to think up and type up the beginnings and endings for future matches. However, I will still be able to adjust the front page of this thread to list the winner of each match until Round 2 is complete.

lalala and CaptainAWB1, it's been a great pleasure working with the two of you. Through this tournament, I have grown very close to you guys. I wish the two of you the best of luck with the remainder of this tournament. I'll gonna miss working with you guys so much.

With that said, I will be sure to make the ending for "Frieza VS Piccolo" an unforgetable one! You will not be dissappointed.

[lalala]

crap now its gonna be alot harder. i was really hoping you could do spike vs. roger smith

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

I'll give you all the info you need on Roger Smith before I leave.

[lalala]

could i also have information on dio and faust? and awb are there any more matches you want to,will, or wouldn't mind doing to make things a little easier on me?

[CaptainAWB1]

[CaptainAWB1]

Since I am unfamilar with a lot of these characters, I will have to do some research on them. I won't be able to do that very much during the weekdays due to my work hours but I have a lot of time during the weekend. And I probably won't be able to do it at all on Wednesday. I have a long trip to a museum about Japanese culture that day. :happy:

And I wish you the best of luck, Pushpop.

EDIT-
Finished the Rock Lee vs. Don Patch opening. I'll be PMing it to lalala after I finish editing it so he can tell me if Rock Lee seems in character.

[Mr. All Sunday]

Frieza VS Piccolo
Jigen VS Goku
Spike Speigel VS Roger Smith
Hatake Kakashi VS Heero Yuy
Rock Lee VS Don Patch
Faust VIII VS Vash the Stampede
Kurama VS L
Dio Brando VS Kon

I'm sticking with Kakashi to go all the way.

[CaptainAWB1]

If there's anyone who is interested, you can help us with future matches. If you have an introduction and/or ending, tell me or Lalala here and we'll tell you whether to PM it to us or not.

I've already finished the opening of Rock Lee vs. Don Patch and am currently working on two endings. So no one needs to offer advice on that.

All help will be greatly appreciated, and I'll make sure to credit you.

[lalala]

as will i. help would be greatly appreciated. due to the lack pushpop. things have certaintly become more difficult. and awb are there anymore matches that you will,want to,or wouldn't mind doing?

p.s the most i'm asking for right now is jigen help

edit: if its not too much trouble awb. could you do jigen vs. goku and kurama vs. L?

[CaptainAWB1]

@lalala:

and awb are there anymore matches that you will,want to,or wouldn't mind doing?

Well, you can always count on me to do the matches that have Bobobo or Don Patch.

I cannot think of any remaining characters that I'm that familar with, so there aren't any matches I think I can do at the moment.

p.s the most i'm asking for right now is jigen help

Jigen has always been a hard character for me to figure out. I can't quite figure out how to describe his personality. I will see what I can do, though.

edit: if its not too much trouble awb. could you do jigen vs. goku

You know what, I might. As soon as I'm finished researching the character, I will see if I can do an opening for that.

and kurama vs. L?

I don't even remember who Kurama is, and I barely know anything about Death Note. More research is needed.

EDIT-
I don't think we will be able to do these matches every day anymore. =( I think we might have to skip a day every so often.

People, we could really use your help.

[lalala]

well i'm familiar with most of the characters. kurama is a very calm, and very polite person whoes intelligent, nimble and has a rose that turns into a whip that can slice through anything. hes also very quick. if he loses i will tell you more information about him but other then that that's all you need to now. jigen is a tough character for me as well. hes so hard to capture. so pushpop maybe you could bump that match down a bit.

edit: we might not be able to do every day but we'll do the best we can.

[CaptainAWB1]

Lalala, I hope you are planning on doing Hatake Kakashi VS Heero Yuy. I know a bit about Kakashi, but it's limited to what I've seen in the dub. And Heero Yuy bores the hell out of me. I just can't work with him.

[Usopp with a Pushpop]

It looks like I'm really putting stress on you guys by leaving. I'm sorry.

[CaptainAWB1]

Don't feel bad. Your job is much more important than the tournament.

We'll find a way through this.

EDIT-
I haven't even gotten started on Jigen vs. Goku, and I won't be able to do much work today since I will be working longer than usual (class has a field trip). We will have to skip it for now.

[lalala]

ya i guess so. and don't worry about it pushpop your job is more important. just look at the good things. like me and awb get to broaden our knowledge of anime/manga characters. and awb i will do kakashi and heero. i know a great deal about kakashi and enough about heero. he bores me too though. hes just a silent,loner tough guy with a giant robot.

edit: sorry there will be no match today. i have to write a story for language and its gonna take all the creativity i have. unless of course awb does one when he gets here

[CaptainAWB1]

Gotta go to Blockbuster and rent some Anime DVDs. Looks like those hundreds of Blockbuster gift cards I got for christmas are going to come in handy after all.

I am still trying to write Jigen vs. Goku, but I can't really come up with anything interesting. (Gonna go rent one of the DVDs at Blockbuster tomorrow).

However, I have almost finished an opening for Faust VIII vs. Vash. I just need to know a little more about Vash to complete it, mostly what kind of a pacifist he is. (Is he the lazy laidback kind, the hippie kind, the cowardly kind, etc?)

EDIT-
Is there any character in this tournament who has a real curious nature? Someone who if they saw a slightly opened door that said "DO NOT ENTER" and heard some voices coming out from it wouldn't hesitate to go in and see what was going on. Anyone like that? Maybe a character who's an associate of one of the tournament characters?

EDIT#2-
Is there anyone out there who considers themselves an expert on Vash and/or Faust?

[rice-a-roni]

I have just one request/sugestion from the person who nomiated Heero. In the Heero V. Kakashi fight, could you somehow mix in where Heero uses Wing Zero? that would be totally tight=)
