Astro Boy. Joe Yabuki. Jotaro Kujo. Kenshin Himura. Monkey D. Luffy. Ryuko Matoi.
There have been a lot of iconic, well-written characters in anime and manga over the years. But which one deserves to be called the best? In this competition, nearly 300 character will vie for that honor, but only one will be crowned...the greatest.
We have a lot of matches to get through, so I'll try to get one done every day. When matches will end will of course be dependent on whether enough people vote on the match/if the people I expect to vote on the match all vote on it, so they can move faster or slower depending on the circumstances. So without further ado, let's start the competition...
Round 1: Match 1

Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood/manga)
A good match to start this competition off with. I'll go with:
Naga the White Serpent - As much as I love the Slayers tv anime, I have to say I love the movies and OVAs even more. Naga is the reason why. More than Gourry or any other character in the tv series, Naga is the perfect comedic foil for Lina; a proud, egotistical woman who thinks too highly of herself and causes a ruckus wherever she goes while taunting her enemies with her iconic, distinctive laugh. Much like Lina she's money obsessed and self-centered, but unlike Lina she's also fearless, charismatic, and seemingly nigh-invulnerable against obstacle that gets put in her way. She and Lina share a hilarious frenemy relationship and are unafraid to betray each other for their own interests at the drop of a coin, which leads to some amusing situations and several cases where the two are pitted against each other...with hilarious results. Crazy and unpredictable, Naga never ceases to be a fascinating and entertaining character to watch, and her banter with Lina is always priceless, witty dialogue. If we ever get more Slayers anime, I'd want it to be about Lina and Naga, because there seriously needs to be more animated adventures featuring the shenanigans of Lina's self-proclaimed best friend and rival.
Sanosuke Sagara - Sano made for a solid best friend/hot headed sidekick to Kenshin. While I don't think I found his character arc or role in the story more interesting than other members of the RK cast, I did always enjoy seeing him shine in several situations, especially in the Kyoto arc where he desired to get stronger in order to fight beside Kenshin and prove himself to Saito and in the 7 chapter mini-storyline in the Revenge arc where he returned to his hometown and visited his family. Overall, a very enjoyable character.
Edward Elric - Edward has never been my favorite character from either version of FMA, but I do like his Brotherhood/manga version the best. Though the story works out too conveniently to really pay off on his character development (another reason why Silver Spoon>>>>>>>>>>>>>FMA), Edward does mature well through the story and his characterization of being a wiseass, stubborn, and temperamental but kind and clever kid with a strong desire to make things right is fairly endearing, though his comedic moments can be tiring at times.
Kenshiro - One of the most iconic characters from one of the most iconic anime/manga series to come out of the 80's (which is really saying something, considering), Kenshiro embodies the 80's macho badass persona, going around place to place crushing every schmuck who just happens to get on his bad side with a "YA TA TA TA." Now, I can like some of those characters, like Jotaro Kujo, but only when I have a good understanding of their character beyond just "he's badass" or "he's strong." I haven't read or watched enough FOTNS to get any more sense of Kenshiro's character outside of the standard "badass who beats up bad guys to protect weak people," while I have a good understanding of the other three characters, and like them more. So, unless I miraculously manage to read more of FOTNS and understand Kenshiro as a character better in 24 hours, I'm going to have to put him last here.
Sanosuke Sagara- Not one of my favorite RK characters, but still a memorable one, nonetheless, and his mini-arc was great
Naga- I haven't seen The Slayers, but the character sounds interesting enough
Edward Elric- Not a favorite of mine, but still a solid lead
Kenshiro- An iconic character from an important manga, but to be honest I find him a bit too shallow and lacking in personality, for my taste (I think that Joseph Joestar is a better version of this type of character, personally)
ed, sano, kenshiro and korra's dog.

Captain Kraft (Level E)
My Picks:
Kuranosuke Koibuchi - A bored and effeminate rich son of a major politician and obsessed with beauty, fashion, and crossdressing, Kuranosuke has in fact a heart of gold and is a kind, if not pushy friend that helps Tsukimi break out of her shell and appreciate herself more. Moreover he gives confidence and willpower to the rest of the Amamizukan residents, pushing hard for them not to give up on the place and coming up with plans to help protect it, genuinely desiring to keep it alive for not just it's rustic charm but also in recognition it is the only place it's residents, Tsukimi included, feel at home in the bustling metropolis of Tokyo. A hilarious, eccentric, and intriguing character, Kuranosuke is always a fun character and see develop as the story progresses.
Ochiai - My second favorite character in 20th Century Boys, after Yoshitsune. A cool guy with an interesting backstory, capable of some awesome things and always one of the most interesting characters to follow around in the story.
Shoot - A character who first appeared to be the cautious, weak-willed type at first but proved his guts and mettle in an awesome manner in the battle with Menthuthuyoupi, which another great element of that fight.
Captain Kraft - I found his frustration with the Prince and attempts to keep him in line/undermine his schemes always enjoyable.
Shoot
Ochiai
Captain Kraft
Kuronosuke Koibuchi
Ochiai- By far my favorite 20th Century Boys character; he also had the greatest backstory
Captain Kraft- The greatest comedic foil for the greatest comedic villain that I've seen in any manga/anime
Shoot- While I prefer Knuckle, I think that Shoot was still a fun character
Kuronosuke- I haven't seen more than an episode of Princess Jellyfish, and that was years ago, so I really don't know anything about this character
Same as VLord.

A Togashi character over an Uraswa character? That's surprising coming from you. :huh:
Not that I have a problem with it. They are both among my favorite mangaka.
I like to mix it up.

Results:
Shoot (Hunter X Hunter) - 16
Kuranosuke Koibuchi (Princess Jellyfish) - 8
Ochiai (20th Century Boys) - 16
Captain Kraft (Level E) - 10

Nagate Tanikaze (Knights of Sidonia)
VS.
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-poM6fohe77o/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/y5bN3ZudvmQ/photo.jpg)
Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi (Digimon Adventure)
My Picks:
Heiji Hattori- The great detective of the west and Shinichi Kudo's greatest rival and ally, Heiji is a smart and witty foil and partner to Conan/Shinichi. Totally on his level in terms of deductive capabilities, but with a more playful sense of humor and hilariously clueless when it comes to romance (the "follower" scene has got to be one of the funniest moments in the entire series), Heiji is a total scene stealer and always entertaining. It's no wonder why he's Vlord's favorite Conan character.
Son Goku - Though Goku is a simple character, his naivety and earnest devotion to improving his fighting prowess and helping his friends and innocent people is an endearing characterization that has inspired a plethora of similar, albeit less effective, protagonists in modern battle shonen manga today. I prefer Goku in the early parts of the series to when he's an adult, where other characters steal spotlight from him and are just more interesting, but he's a good character and protagonist throughout the story.
Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi - Admittedly, it's been over a decade since I've seen all of Digimon Adventure (outside of a few random episodes on Nicktoons and Our War Game), but I remember Izzy being my favorite character from it, as I've always liked smart/technologically savvy characters.
Nagate Tanikaze - Nagate is a solid protagonist, but I can't say I found his characterization anything particularly notable, especially among other characters from the series. The other characters in this match just are more memorable and left a stronger impression to me.
Izzy- My favorite Digimon character in the franchise, for the most part, though Beelzemon (Tamers iteration) may be a tie with him for me
Son Goku- I prefer kid Goku over him as an adult, but this character is one of the consistently good things about Dragon Ball, with the exception of maybe the Cell arc where his behavior was questionable, but really, I have seen few simple-minded characters who come off as legitimately fun and engaging, rather than just flat-out annoying, and Son Goku is one of those characters
Heiji Hattori- Admittedly I don't know the character, but I at least like what I've seen of the show
Nagate Tanikaze- And I haven't seen Knights of Sidonia at all, so sorry about that
Same as the doctor, for much the same reasons.

I think that pretty much covers everyone for this round (I don't think that Shadow has seen most of these shows yet). Unless of course Avaitor, Dr. Insomniac, or Lord Dalek want to vote, which they rarely (if ever) participate.
For the first round I always wait a full day on each match unless everyone I know is interested/everyone who nominated something in the match has voted. Foggle nominated Nagate for the tournament, so even though I don't know whether he will vote or not, I'm going to wait for him until the 24 hours have passed on this round (which will be around 2 O'clock).
Just a heads up, I probably won't be participating in this tournament at all, even when I have seen most of the shows.
:(
But you nominated stuff. Wouldn't it make sense to at least try to put through characters that you like?
I'll probably will from time to time for characters I really love, but don't count on happening frequently.
start the next flipping round.
We'll miss you, Gentleman. You were one of the best posters.

Hei (Darker Than Black)
My Picks:
Gojo Shiouji - Incredibly smart and easily annoyed, but in many ways just as messed up as the most of the cast, Shiouji was always one of the most entertaining ES characters for me.
Tsunemi Chiba - A great "punk with a heart of gold" character with a strong character arc, and one of the characters I was most invested in throughout the series.
Amuro Ray - I never watched more than a few episodes of MSG, but I remember liking Amuro well enough.
Hei - I've never watched Darker than Black.

Kamina (Gurren Lagann)
My Picks:
Masaomi Kida - For a character who comes off at first as an aloof buffoon, he turns out that his happy go lucky act covers up a burden of guilt over what happened to his former gang and his former girlfriend, and he has one of the strongest, if not the strongest, character arcs as presented in the anime.
Kamina - Makes a strong impression early on. Really carries the show for those first eight episodes, which is probably why his death makes a lot of impact on most first-time viewers.
Space Dandy - A dandy guy in space.
Alexander Louis Armstrong - Amusing, but never one of my favorites in either version of FMA. I find his older sister to be a much more interesting character.

Chun-li (Street Fighter manga)
My Picks:
Wolfgang Grimmer - My second favorite character in Monster, after Tenma.
Cobra - A predecessor to characters like Spike and Dandy, though he strikes a balance of goofy and cool much better. In general a fun protagonist to follow around and root for.
Maes Hughes - I prefer him in the FMA anime, mainly because he just does more in that and has more presence than he does in the manga/Brotherhood. But, he's still a good character.
Chun Li - I've actually never even played a Street Fighter game, much less read any of the Street Fighter manga.
Grimmer- Hands down my favorite character from Monster; he has a fascinating backstory and manages to pull off being a morally complex "good guy" more than most characters of his type
Maes Hughes- While he's not a favorite of mine, I like him well enough in both the first anime as well as Brotherhood (and the manga); I do think he's one of those characters that got a tad overrated back in the day simply just because he died (which was a big deal back in 2003 when we were still used to death being no real threat in most cartoons of that era; having not been exposed to that many anime at the time), but putting that aside, I do think that he's a memorable character, but just not quite as great as some of my actual favorites in terms of either nuance or entertainment value
Cobra- I haven't seen his show, but he seems like an enjoyable character
Chun-Li- I haven't read the SF manga, but she's my 3rd favorite female character to play as in SSF4, if that means anything at all
Hughes

Giorno Giovanna (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)
My Picks:
Lina Inverse - Spunky, smart, and very dangerous when she's mad, Lina has always been one of my favorite anime/manga character ever since I first watched Slayers.
Bruno Buccellati - One of my top favorite JoJo's characters. Stern, stoic, and decisive, with a fascinating backstory and an admirable goal in the story, uses his Stand power in awesome and creative ways, and calmly suffers in a state of near-death for half the story in order to see through what he started and for the sake of his teammates. He's easily one of the best parts about Vento Aureo.
Giorno Giovanna - While not quite as good a JoJo as say, Joseph or Jolyne, his ambition to be the leader of the Passione gang in order to stop the spread of drugs and help people, and his ability to inspire others while also using Gold Experience in unique ways in his fights, made him a solid, cool character in my opinion.
Shizuo Heiwajima - One of the best DRRR! characters. His backstory episode is probably my favorite episode in the show.
Pass. I do need to watch The Slayers and read more JoJo, eventually.

Canary (Hunter X Hunter)
My Picks:
Akemi Roppongi - Akemi's kind of underrated, imo. Not only does she some great character moments, but she also is the main resident of Ikkoku that's really looking out for both Kyoko and Godai's best interests and isn't afraid to knock some sense into them when they are making bad decisions, like in the final part of the series. She's got a great laid-back personality and level-headed outlook on things, and though she does exploit Godai almost as much as Yotsuya and bother him as much as Ichinose, I think she shows she's a true friend to both him and Kyoko at several points in the series. She's easily my favorite character in the series after Godai and Kyoko themselves.
Ranma Saotome - Ranma is a funny and cool protagonist. Unlike other characters in similar series he isn't some weak-willed pushover that just happens to be important/get attention from the ladies for no reason. Ranma is a fully developed character with a strong personality and personal interests, and the series shows him working hard to become as strong as he does by the end of the series. Ranma is also a total jerk at times and no one in the series hesitates to call him out on that and give him some comeuppance if need be, but that just makes him more interesting and makes his interactions with Akane and Ryoga in particular consistently entertaining. He also has strong development in the series in terms of maturity, both in his relationship with Akane, coming to terms and embracing his "girl-type" form (though he never gives up his desire to change back to normal), and in re-establishing ties with his mother, the latter of which was always some of the strongest material in the series. So, while he's not my favorite character in the series (that's Nabiki), he's a definitely a a well-written and enjoyable lead that kept the series interesting throughout and had great chemistry with each of the supporting cast.
Canary - I like her well and fine, but she's nowhere near being one of the most interesting characters Togashi's written, even for minor characters, and isn't developed enough to be anywhere close to being as good a character as either Akemi or Ranma either.
Boma - I haven't seen Heat Guy J.
The third round in a row that I'll have to pass on. I should probably just get around to reading Takahashi's stuff, already. I know how badly you want everyone to, CX. :humhumhum:
:awesome:
Well, everyone should check out Maison Ikkoku, at the very least. But I really do love her most of her stuff, and she's made some damn great series. UY, MI, and Ranma are considered classics for good reason, imo.
Anyways, I think you should be able to vote on tomorrow's match, so there's that. ;)

Eikichi Onizuka (Shonan Junai Gumi/Great Teacher Onizuka)
Favorite match so far. I think all these characters are great:
Eikichi Onizuka - Best. Teacher. Ever.
Kogoro Mouri - Always a hoot, and honestly underrated. Episodes focusing on him and showing him solving cases by himself tend to be some of the best in the series, imo.
Fee Charmichael - My favorite character in the Planetes manga, and just as cool in the anime as well, even though I wish it didn't omit her character arc.
Akito Tenkawa - I remember it being hard to not draw comparisons between him and Shinji, and honestly, and I like Akito a lot more.

Date Masamune (Sengoku Basara)
My Picks:
Kyoko Chigusa Otonashi - One of my top favorite anime/manga characters. A complicated character that feels uncertain about moving on and investing herself in another emotional relationship, yet growing feelings for Godai and increasingly conflicted about what she truly wants as time goes by. The episode where she finally decides to yet Soichiro go and move on with her life is one of my favorite scenes ever in anime or manga.
Thorfinn - His character arc from being little more than a villain driven by revenge to someone who is able to fight for what is right and just in a non-violent way was excellent, and he's become a true hero worth rooting for.
Rikiishi Tooru - The best rival in any sports anime/manga ever. Drove Joe to be the best boxer he could while he himself pushed his body to it's breaking point in order to fight him in the ring.
Date Masamune - I haven't watched Sengoku Basara yet.

Hanamichi Sakuragi (Slam Dunk)
My Picks:
Astro Boy
Gesicht
Hanamichi Sakuragi
Bardock
It sucks that Rikiishi had to lose so early on, but I'm hoping that Joe and Yoko at least manage to make it to the next round (I kind of doubt it, though, since only CX and myself have read the manga, unless Avaitor votes, but he hasn't even gotten to Joe's best character arc in the story, yet).
Anyways, as for this round:
Gesicht- It's been far too long since I last read. Pluto, so admittedly my memory on it is really fuzzy at this point, but it's an Urasawa character, so of course I'm going to rank him first
Bardock- I'm really biased, here, but I just love his TV special so much, and just the concept of the character as Goku's father fighting single-handed lay against Freeza's army, even though he was destined to lose, to be one of the most bad-ass things ever
Sakuragi- A fun delinquent-type character, though I think that Nomiya is basically the better version of his character, and gets significantly more development, but Sakuragi is still by far one of the better protagonists in a sports manga
Astro Boy- Iconic, but I need to read more of his manga
Oh man, cool round! ;D
It's also interesting to have characters from Astro Boy and Pluto in the same round, considering that the latter is basically based off the former.
Same as CartoonX.
bardock, astro, sakuragi and gesicht.

Weather Report (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)
My Picks:
Shoko Nishimiya - An incredible portrayal of both a deaf person and a victim of bullying, Shoko tries her best not to be brought down by her disability and braved through her bullying, trying not to cause trouble for anyone and just desiring to make friends. Thinking she's a burden on her friends and family, Shoko is always quick to apologize to others even for things she is not at fault for, and even towards people who intentionally antagonize her like Ueno. She's a fascinating, tragic, and sympathetic character with a strong character arc, and after the recent events has re-gained a desire to live and helping the friend who saved her life, and hopefully, she succeeds.
Leorio - Just one of those characters that's easy to get behind and root for. Not particularly strong but smart when it counts and always dedicated to his friends, Leorio just has a lot of great moments in the series, and it's a shame he (as well as Kurapika) was out of the spotlight for a lot of it until now. I'm glad that he's an integral part of the Dark Continent arc, and hope to see good things with his character in the future.
Weather Report - A cool dude with a fascinating and tragic backstory, an interesting relationship with the main villain of part 6, and really crazy abilities. Not to mention Heavy Weather is the most bizarre stand in the entire series. Seriously, what happens once he activates it's true abilities is some weird, fucked-up shit.
Chu - He was always fun when he showed up, but isn't nearly as strong a character in character development or role in the story than these other characters.

Trafalgar Law (One Piece)
My Picks:
Hachiken Yugo - My favorite character from my favorite ongoing manga. Also probably the second most "relatable" character I've seen in an anime/manga, after Godai.
Koichi Hirose - One of the best characters in Part IV. Echoes is an awesome stand too.
Trafalgar Law - Easily the most interesting character in the current arc.
Scar - I prefer the first anime's version of his character a lot better.
Eh, Pass. I'm familiar with 2 of these characters, but don't really care much about either of them.

I love Impmon's redemption arc so much. For a kids show, it really does delve into pretty heavy subject matter, and he is involved in my personal favorite scene in the entire Digimon franchise. And yes, I like it even more than the epic Omnimon scene from Our War Game.
When I was re-watching Tamers, it was his arc that surprised me at how well developed it was. From goof-off to villain to hero, it works really well especially because of how much he goes through.
He wanted power above all and got it so easily, but in exchange when he wanted forgiveness it took the entirety of the series to gain it. It was really interesting seeing him trying to figure it all out.

Olivier Mira Armstrong (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood/manga)
My Picks:
Kenzo Tenma
Kiyoharu Togawa
Olivier Mira Armstrong
Sasuke Furata
i'll vote later.
Tenma- My 2nd favorite character from Monster, and my 3rd favorite Urasawa character overall
Kiyoharu- Admittedly my least favorite of the main 3, but that doesn't mean that he's not awesome, and he has the most interesting backstory in the series by far; I consider him to be a much better version of Rukawa from Slam Dunk
Olivier- Honestly, aside from being a strong female in a physical sense of the word, I always felt that people overrated this character simply just because she was strong and a woman; I mean, she's an alright character, but IMO not nearly the most interesting, either in her own series, or compared to other female characters with better characterization
Sasuke- Sorry, I haven't seen Mononucleosis: TAS yet, but at least he has to be better than that OTHER Sasuke that everyone in their right mind despises
Mira Armstrong - Easily the best character that wasn't in the original anime. I love how she isn't a whiny and she's probably in my favorite fight in the show. Certainily the best time "To Be King" played.

Have you ever read Slam Dunk or Vagabond? It's by the same guy. It's a seinen manga with all of the heart found in something like Slam Dunk, combined with the philosophical life messages found in Vagabond. It's Inoue Takehiko's best manga, IMO. Though, it is truthfully a drama more than it is an actual sports manga.
Results:
Sasuke Furuta (Hyouge Mono) - 12
Kiyohara Togawa (REAL) - 12

Schierke (Berserk)
My Picks:
Sesshomaru - One of my all-time favorite anime/manga characters. No, really. He has a fantastic character arc, growing from a villain into an anti-villain, then an anti-hero into finally, a true hero. He has the most intricate character development in the entire manga, and it pays off beautifully in The Final Act, and it's a major part of what drives the series towards the end of it and why I enjoy it as much as I do. He's the best written character of his archetype (and the only one that I like), with one of the best character arcs in any shonen manga, and my favorite Rumiko Takahashi character after the main leads of UY and MI.
Schierke
Ryuhou
Ken Masters

Goemon (Lupin the Third)
My Picks:
Jelly Jiggler - My second favorite Bobobo character. The very definition of a lovable loser.
Homura Akemi - Favorite Madoka character. Easily has the most interesting character arc and the most depth to her in the series.
Goemon - Though my least favorite of the Lupin cast, he's still a highly entertaining character who gets great moments in every incarnation of the franchise.
Morgiana - Kicks ass, though unlike some people, she's not one of my favorite characters in Magi.

My Picks:
Black Jack - Possibly the best character Tezuka ever created.
Tatta - My favorite character in Buddha, and one of top my favorite Tezuka characters in general.
Hibito Nanba - Though initially I didn't think much of him, his character arc has ended up more interesting than Mutta's at this point in the story, imo. I hope we get to see what he's up to now in Russia soon.

Zebra (Toriko)
My Picks:
Zebra - My favorite character in Toriko. I don't usually like to label characters badass, since I generally don't care about those kind of characters, but Zebra is a rare exception, a character that is just so awesome and cool that I can't think of any other term to describe him.
Josuke Higashikata - The third best JoJo in the series. Inherits his father's great sense of humor and wit, but is still a righteous, interesting character in his own right as well.
Emporio Alnino - Sort of underutilized, but I love his role at the end of Stone Ocean.
Hiko Seijuro - A cool character, but not one of my favorites in Kenshin.

Mousse (Ranma 1/2)
My Picks:
Mousse - Honestly underrated. He's one of the series' best characters, and episodes/storylines centering around him tend to be some of the best in the series.
Jotaro Kujo - The emblematic JoJo's protagonist.
Knuckle Bine - Probably my favorite protagonist to come out of the Chimera Ant arc.
Miria Harvent - Issac and Miria should have been nominated as a duo, imo.
Knuckle Bine

My Picks:

My Picks:
Jigen
Kiritsugu Emiya
Einar
Toki
Jigen
Einar
Kiritsugu
Toki
Kiritsugu is kind of an unlikable douche for most of the series, IMO, hence why I ranked him lower. Personally, I was pulling for Waver and Rider, myself, who were both far more sympathetic, fun, and likable than anyone else on the show. Needless to say, I knew that they were never going to come out on top in the Holy Grail War, but they were still the ones that I wanted to see win over anyone else.

Yoko Shiraki (Ashita no Joe)
My Picks:
Yoko Shiraki
Elgala
Jean-Pierre Polnareff
Ermes Costello
Same as CX.
Same as EK
While I'm at it, since feminism has been made such a big deal of in this day and age, I'd like to point out that Yoko fits the perfect example of what I consider to be a strong female character, in that she's just a strong (read: well-written) character in general. To put things into context, Sakura, an earlier character featured in this competition, is often called a strong female character, but I personally disagree with this. She's physically strong, for sure, but as a character, I don't consider her to be well-written. I think that people often confuse drawing explicit attention to the fact that a character is female and then making her more useful after she has a complex about not being useful as addressing some sort of issue with female characters, and this paints her in a positive light for many. Personally, I find her to be too whiny in the beginning, but OK, let's say that it's an intentional character flaw. My problem is that the answer to that flaw is literally to just make her more useful in fights, yet still have her play second-fiddle to the 2 guys in her team, and never really grow out of her Sasuke-complex until MUCH later on in the manga. I could go into how Morgiana from Magi is a MUCH, MUCH better version of this specific character type with an inferiority complex, but perhaps I'll save that for another time.
In this case, I really want to mention Yoko, since she's featured in this round. She is also introduced, intentionally, as a very smug and self-righteous character who hides behind her charity to paint herself in a positive light, and this goes in throughout most of the first half of the manga. What makes her such a great, memorable, and interesting character is her actual development throughout the manga, which if you weren't aware, is meant to highly parallel Joe's. Both characters have their flaws early on. When part 2 of the story rolls around, they both undergo many gradual changes that have been built up since part 1, and their development is concise and progresses naturally, including how they each play off of each other whenever they interact. Yet at the same time, the development is kept realistic, and rather than turn into a morally good character in every way, she actually becomes a very shrews businesswoman who is out to progress her interests, yet does it in such a way that you just can't help but root for her. I particularly like how she flat-out dominates a group of wealthy boxing managers who run the Japanese Boxing organization from behind the scenes. She allows them to underestimate her because she's a woman, and that believe that women can't do a man's business, yet she completely and utterly uses them for her own gains before they even realize what her true intentions are, and they can't do a thing about it. Rather than hiding behind her status like she used to, she accepts who she is and uses her influence to achieve great things. To me, that's just a fascinating character, regardless if gender, and why I personally find Yoko to be an ideal example of a strong female character, because she's just so well-written in general.

Shinobu Miyake (Urusei Yatsura)
My Picks:
Shinobu Miyake
Gene Starwind
Sinbad
Ryuji Danma
Oh, good round:
Ryuji Danma- forget about that crummy spin-off series, or even GTO for that matter; classic Ryuji was Onizuka's best buddy, and he always had his back, and was arguably the more interesting character of the duo during SJG (at least earlier on)
Gene Starwind- A fun, adventurous character, and probably had the most funny moments of any of the main leads among the Space Western anime
Sinbad- To be honest, he was more of a secondary nomination for me, but he is a fun character, more so in his own spin-off series/prequel as opposed to the main series for Magi, in which he's kind of an ass-hole
Shinobu- I still haven't seen UY, yet
Results:
Sinbad (Adventures of Sinbad/Magi) - 4
Ryuji Danma (Shonan Junai Gumi/GTO: The Early Years) - 5
Gene Starwind (Outlaw Star) - 6

Hajime Saito (Rurouni Kenshin)
My Picks:
Nomiya Tomomi
Kazuma Kuwabara
L
Hajime Saito
Holy fuck! This a tough round!
Nomiya Tomomi- Don't just down-vote this guy simply because you haven't read REAL, ESPECIALLY if you like good delinquent characters like Kuwabara, and more notably Sakuragi from Slam Dunk, being that the same creator, Takehiko Inoue, took that character archetype and added layers to it with Nomiya, and transformed him from an ass-hole into a the most likable and compassionate character in the entire series; needless to say, he's my favorite character in REAL
Kazuma Kuwabara- The most underrated of the main four characters; the idiot fans look at him and just think "Doh! He's not super bad-ass like the other guys, so he's not 'kewl' and a shitty character, lol!"; but he honest has more development than most other characters on the show, and I'd argue that being an underdog among the main cast makes him all the more appealing
Hajime Saito- We all have out "guilty pleasure" characters; the one who we love more for their bad-assery than their actual, well, "character"; mine just happens to be Saito, though to his credit he has also gotten a fair amount of backstory to him, and it is implied that he has another side to himself which he just never shows to Kenshin and his group
L- Don't think that I don't like this character just because I'm ranking him last, here, because as I said, it's a tough ass hell round for me, but I do ultimately feel stronger about the other characters, however to L's credit, I ALWAYS found him to be the most engaging character in Death Note, and personally I was always pulling for him to win out over Light, myself

Cartoon, will you be doing a tournament for heroes from all other types of media after this?
I do plan to make more protagonist tournaments for characters from other media in the future. Right now, though, I kind of feel it's kind of weird that we haven't had a live-action movie tournament yet, so unless someone makes that before me, I'll probably do that one next. Also, I still want to make the Anime Ending Theme tournament as well and the Anime Music tournament sometime down the road, so I might make one of those before moving on to a new protagonist tournament as well.
The Anime Music Tournament is my next project, actually.
I actually meant one tournament for all non-anime/manga protagonists.
We did a greatest movie tournament a few years ago, I believe. I'm thinking about doing something like that after the anime music tournament.

Like I said, I do want to make a tournament for protagonists outside of anime/manga, but I'll probably do it after doing a different tournament first, to mix things up a bit.
I thought you meant that you want to make multiple tournaments like one for TV protagonists, movies, etc.
I do... :P
What I was thinking was that we'd just keep them divided, and have one for live action protagonists, one for western animation protagonists, one for literary protagonists, etc. That way we can have multiple small competitions rather than one massive large one that would take forever to finish and people might get bored by. Unless you guys want to do it differently, of course.
In any case, we still have, like, around three months before this competition will actually end, so we still have a long ways to go before we have to make any decision on this. :D
Same as CX
Do you think this tournament will actually be that long? I think this thread is already longer than Pharass' :D
I think that next time, it'd probably be better to enforce a maximum nomination cap. Like, no more than 8 per person (or more depending on how many people actually nominate), as well as a total nomination cap, like no more than 200, or something like that. We don't want people just nominating any characters that they like. It has to be characters that people really love and feel passionate enough about to want them to get enough recognition by moving onto later rounds. I think that's why the video game and animated show tournaments did so well. The rounds were much tougher because we already started off with much more interesting titles.

Yeah, I agree that'd the best thing to do for future tournaments. That last few have just got too bloated, and that led them to be less interesting as a result. Limiting down the amount of choices would allow for a faster pace, and more interesting matches throughout the competition, rather than in just the final few rounds. I, particularly, will keep that in mind from now on, since a lot of it has been my fault in the first place for nominating way too much stuff that I didn't need too. :sweat:

Tough round, too. I love 3 of these characters.
I just want to make it clear, though, that I tend to ignore GTO's spin-off series' when I consider him one of my all-time favorite anime characters. Granted that the character himself is not horribly degraded in these lackluster spin-offs. It's more that the quality of all of the characters around him and the poor quality of the writing don't give him anything interesting to do, or at best just retreads ground that Shounan Junai Gumi and GTO already did much, much better. Seriously, Fujisawa, just leave Onizuka alone, now. He's already done his thing.
And I happen to love all 4 of these characters! :awesome:

If the quality of Fujisawa's other series are any indication, I see why he keeps bringing him back again and again and again like he does and makes so many mediocre spinoffs of the series starting the characters around him. He's got nothing else.
Well, to be clear, I'm not discriminating against Silver Spoon characters. I just haven't read more than the first few chapters of the series, and that was a few years ago when it was brand new, so I don't have much of a grasp on the series. I have too big of a backlog to get into it right now, so it'll be a while before I finally get around to it. I do hear that it's better than FMA, though.
As for Fujisawa, I'd at least have more respect for him if he tried moving onto other stuff rather than exploiting the hell out of his cash cow, even if that other stuff was crap. I mean, look at Watsuki. He basically used all of his writing talent on one good series, but to his credit, he mostly left that series alone after it was finished (and he ended it on a high note, at that). While I don't particularly care that much for any of his latter work, I still do read it just out of respect for giving me one of my favorite manga ever. And yeah, I know that there was that RK spin-off series that was pretty mediocre, but it was really short and he obviously just did it because the people making the live-action movies wanted some promotional content to reignite interesting in the RK franchise in modern Jump readers. That's out of the way, now, and he didn't keep doing more and more mediocre stuff to bastardize his own series and characters.

Eikichi Onizuka

Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi
Fujisawa's other series since GTO have all basically been GTO rehashed over and over, even when they don't star Onizuka. Like I said, I'd only be interested in a new Onizuka series if it was a spin off like GTO was from SJG and in the next stage of life. If he isn't willing to do that, I'm simply not interested.
Same as Avaitor.
He did a boring spin-off for Danma Ryuuji, which frustrates me since Danma was an AWESOME character in SJG, and was really just as important of a character as Onizuka was in that series. He had the potential to give him a great series of his own that was entirely different from Onizuka's series, but instead he did absolutely nothing interesting or worthwhile with the character, and it just felt like GTO with more Danma in it, except way less interesting.

Was it really that hard to make a story about a cool biker/mechanic that travels from town to town beating thugs up and getting/losing the girl?
C'mon, this stuff writes itself!

Kurapika

I gave extra points to Kurapika for basically being the perfect example of how to do a character like Sasuke the RIGHT way, in that he's both legitimately bad-ass and sympathetic at the same time.
funny how killua is a character like sasuke but much better as well.
I'm not quite sure that I could draw the parallel between Killua and Sasuke quite as much. They both kill without any regard for human life....but then Killua actually has character development and becomes far more nuanced than that, kind of making it hard to compare him to Sasuke even in that regard. However, his general role in the story is quite different from Sasuke's, being that he essentially follows the opposite circumstances. Despite having a family, he actively wants to detach himself from that life, and willingly wants to support Gon who was his first true friend, and didn't look at him with fear or loathing in his judgement of Killua. Also, this was something established in the very beginning of the series, not something lazily retconned like it was for Sasuke and Naruto, who never truly acted as friends. They were rivals, which was fine, but then Kishimoto saw fit to insist that they were also "buddies," even if we never saw them interact as friends in any real way throughout the series.
In the case of Kurapika, though, you can really draw a direct parallel between his story-line and Sasuke's, and it really does highlight just how exactly Sasuke's character arc went wrong. I could probably write an essay on it, but in essence, Kurapika's obsession with revenge doesn't make him an utter idiot who hates on everyone for no reason (and yes, Sasuke was willing to kill people from Konoha even before he had a reason to actually hate them, so basically he was always just a douche for no reason), but instead someone who sets forth to claim his revenge, but doesn't choose to involve his friends BECAUSE they are his friends. He doesn't want others to have to bear his burden. It's not like he just left everyone for no reason and decided that they were his enemies if he ever saw them again. He actually legitimately gave a shit and didn't want them in harms way on his account.
The bottom line to all of this, of course, being that Sasuke is a fucking dick and a terribly written character. It almost makes me want a dubious competition thread of the most detestable characters of all time. Sasuke would even manage to beat out characters like Joffrey in that scenario.
On a side note, this makes me realize how much more disappointed I am in Magi for Hakuryuu's Sasuke-like character arc, when a much better example of the archetype already existed to draw influence from.
that just reminds me how much of naruto i haven't seen. honestly, the last few episodes on toonami are the most i've seen of the show uncut. i just thought they were similar because they are the "cool guy" on the team.
Well, from a fan perspective they are both clearly meant to be seen as cool. That said, within their own universes, while Sasuke is generally thought of as cool by others, Killua is seen as just a good friend by his allies, and a legitimate threat by others. The concept of the cool dude who all of the women fawn over doesn't really exist in Hunter X Hunter, at least as far as we've seen from the series.
It is true that no one in-universe thinks of killua as a cool guy. i've never thought about that.

I just want to say that Trunks has one of the coolest introduction scenes of any character ever.
true. probably why he was originally my favorite dbz character back then. today he's my favorite because he is one of the only shonen heroes that doesn't sit back and wait for villains to finish powering up. plus, he does whatever it takes to try and get the job done, including blowing away his father. lol

Ochiai (20th Century Boys)
My Picks:
Rock
Ochiai
Genkai
Now that these matches are getting so much tougher, I'm going to give reasons for my choices:
Ochiai- By far the most compelling characterin 20th Century Boys. His journey from being a man obsessed with his work to the post of neglecting his own son until he was tragically killed in an accident, to becoming a bad-ass martial artist who played a key role in saving the world from Friend's reign is one of the best character arcs that I have ever seen.
Genkai- Easily one of the best "mentor" figures in any shonen manga or anime. Whereas the archetype of older manga would be some old wise master, or in modern manga where they make it way too hard to take any female teachers seriously by over-sexualizing then, Togashi just went straight against the norm and created a much grumpier version of the protagonist in the form of a stunted old hag. What's best is that she just has so much personality to her that she almost puts Yusuke to shame, which is saying a lot.
Rock- My favorite Black Lagoon character, and the guy who serves as the person that readers/viewers can really relate to.
Same as EK.

Black Jack (Black Jack)
I should probably start writing more elaborate thoughts for these now...but I'm tired today, so...:
Black Jack - My favorite of Tezuka's many, many great characters. For a guy who says he's only in it for the money a lot he sure does a lot of stuff out of the good of his heart without asking for anything in return.
Kenshin Himura - A great character with an admirable personality and motives, a tragic past, and a fantastic story of moving forward and sticking to his ideals despite all odds and adversities. One of the best written main protagonists in any shonen battle manga. We need more characters like him in modern battle series.
Zenigata - My favorite Lupin character. Clumsy and often made a fool of, but has a lot of heart and when he's not after Lupin or is working with him he really shows his stuff.
kenshin - the manga made me like and appreciate him more. i still like vash more.
zenigata - probably my favorite lupin character as well because he probably gave me the most laughs. just thinking about one part where he crashes while chasing lupin and then quickly says crap about a dozen times makes me smile, if not chuckle a bit. i honestly had trouble deciding between him and homura. this is the only non-lupin site where zenigata could make it to the semi-finals. that's beautiful. i am glad my brother introduced me to lupin.
black jack - his part in the greatest handheld game was good.
Kenshin- While the wandering Vagabond archetype was already long established in manga before Kenshin, he's still one of the most memorable characters of this type in his own right. He has perhaps one of the best written backstories in shonen manga, and is such a captivating character in general.
Black Jack- I really need to. Finish reading it, but CX pretty much hit the nail on the head about him.
Zenigata- My 2nd favorite Lupin character, and a true anime icon.
Same as CX.
Same as Dr. Ensatsu-ken.
Same as Avaitor
Results:
Kenshin Himura (Rurouni Kenshin) - 15
Zenigata (Lupin the Third) - 7

Ochiai (20th Century Boys)
My my my, they don't come much tougher than this (well, except for tomorrow's match, maybe):
Joe Yabuki - A vagrant from the slums who finds a passion in boxing and rises to the top, Joe's life is full of ups and downs that force him to evolve as a person and better himself both professionally and in his character. It's a fascinating character arc and one few of his imitators have been able to replicate quite as well. One of my all time favorite characters.
Kenzo Tenma - Haunted by the thought he made the wrong choice once upon a time, Tenma sets out to make things right, even if it means becoming a killer and destroying his career, reputation, and life in the process. Throughout his journey, time and time again he saves lives and draws people together, helping people wherever he went. In spite of what he planed, Tenma is not a killer and never could be. Tenma is a hero in the truest sense of the word; noble and self-sacrificing, and above all else, always does the right thing, and in the end, makes the right choice.
Ochiai - With a fascinating backstory and strong presence throughout the course of the series, Ochiai was always one of the most interesting and enjoyable characters to follow in 20thCB. While not my top favorite in the cast, his parts in the story always proved entertaining and interesting to read, and let's not beat around the bush here, he's one pretty badass dude. Another great character worthy of this penultimate round.
Joe- One of the most iconic characters in classic manga and anime (right up there with the likes of Astro Boy and Lupin, among others), and probably has the most developmental depth and nuance of any character in the battle Shounen and sports genre from that era. He is rough, unruly, and incredibly self-destructively yet has such a sense of humanity and a driving force that still makes him strangely likable and even somewhat relatable.
Ochiai- I already talked about him in the last match that he was featured in, so just apply that here.
Tenma- Probably one of the most caring and good-natured human-beings in a manga that covers such dark and disturbing subject-material. His perseverance to do what's right above all else never fails to win me over.
Same as CX
Same as Dr. E-k.

He doesn't typically vote in these matches, aside from a few matches where he's familiar with all of the characters in it and is at least a fan of most of them.
Desensitized still has yet to vote, though.
Yeah, but Spark isn't online on weekends.
Regardless, as always, we will move on sometime tomorrow, probably sometime in morning whenever I happen to get up.

Yusuke Urameshi (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Too lazy to explain my choices right now. I'll edit them in later:
Vash the Stampede
Yoko Shiraki
Yusuke Urameshi
Yusuke- Out of all modern shonen protagonists, he is probably my favorite. He's bold, rash, and incredibly aggressive, with a determination to get a job done despite an apathy to doing what's right, but beyond sll of that he's still incredibly likable since he does have a heart of gold, will use his brain when it counts, and does clearly grow and develop as a character.
Yoko- One of the best lead females in any manga. In both a business and an era that look down on women, she can scheme and manage better than anyone in her line of work, yet is never devoid of an emotional core and drive to support the person she believes to be the best fighter around, and her help in furthering his career really makes her alltge more admirable in her efforts.
Vash- While I personally prefer Kenshin, Vash is a thoroughly fascinating and likable character who stands as one of the best characters under the vagabond archetype.

First time I've heard of this. Which character are you specifically referring to?
i was referring to vash and dante. i was being misleading and vague on purpose.
Yoko
Yusuke
Vash
Results:
Yoko Shiraki (Ashita no Joe) - 11
Vash the Stampede (Trigun) - 10
Yusuke Urameshi (Yu Yu Hakusho) - 15

Future Trunks (Dragon Ball)
VS.

Piccolo (Dragon Ball)
My Picks:
Kurama - Though often considered the most kind-hearted of the team, Kurama is deadly ruthless when he wants to be, and unforgiving to those who mess with his family or innocent people. Beyond that he just has an intriguing personality and interesting powers, and among all the "smart" characters in anime/manga battle series, he is by far my favorite.
Piccolo - Piccolo and Vegeta are by far my favorite DB characters, because they have the best character arcs and development through the course of the series. Between the two, I gravitate to Piccolo slightly more, mainly because many of the most memorable moments of the series when I was starting out on it came from him, and because his relationship with Gohan and that scene where he sacrificed himself to save him from Nappa's blast was an incredible moment. Not to mention he's the only non-Saiyan character to remain relevant all the way to the end of the series, and his change from villain to hero to mentor was nice to see develop over the course of it.
Future Trunks - He's cool. I guess. His backstory was really good. That moment where he first shows up and slices Mecha Freeza in half is definitely one of the most iconic moments in the entire series. I liked the moment where he goes Ultimate Super Saiyan but Cell kicks his ass because he was too slow to make use of his strength. He was good at helping to move Vegeta's character arc forward by showing him care for the life of another person for the first time in the series when he gets killed by Beyond Perfect Cell. So that was nice. Not one of my favorite DB characters, but still a good one, though. Has his moments.
Wow, tough doesn't even begin to describe this match for me.
Kurama- My favorite Yu Yu Hakusho character. He has the demeanor of a kind-hearted person, but when it comes down to it he can be the most ruthless of the main four protagonists. He doesn't have a lot of brute strength or speed, but he compensates with a great mind for strategy, knowing how to both analyze and play his opponents, and force their hands when it counts, in the most crucial moments. And beyond all of that, he has a fascinating back story that gives his character a tremendous amount of nuance and emotional depth compared to most bishounen type characters of this archetype.
Piccolo- His character arc is arguably the best in all of Dragon Ball. Plenty of villains have made face turns before, but few are as well done as with Piccolo, who ends up first allying himself with Goku and the others to defeat a common threat. When Goku seemingly dies, he takes it upon himself to train his son, Gohan, who aside from being the son of his greatest enemy up to that point, could one day use his teachings to defeat him, in turn. But what's so brilliant is how each character rubs off on each other. Gohan is initially just a sheltered, naive child who Piccolo must toughen up, but in turn his soft and caring nature, and ability to show respect for Piccolo as his master (a sensation which was completely new to Piccolo at that time) give Piccolo someone to fight for other than himself. Ever since that point, Piccolo has become one of my favorite "mentor" characters in any manga, and as many have pointed out, he honestly makes a much better father figure than Goku, as well.
Future Trunks- Putting him last in a match shows you just how tough it is considering how much I like this character. His story-line feels straight out of a silver-age. Comic book, but what I love about this character is his ability for compassion on a level that most characters in this series never had the chance to exhibit. In his timeline and reality, he has lost almost everyone and everything important to him, and knowing that he can never change that must be indescribably hard on him. Yet through helping the characters that we know and love from an alternate timeline to his own, he manages to gain a new found resolve about protecting what he still has. On top of that, I love his relationship with his father, Vegeta, and how he initially hates how isolated, prideful, and arrogant Vegeta is, yet at the same time comes to respect his incredible resolve and determination to overcome anything, which in the end is what I beleive gives him the strength to surpass his previous limits and end up saving the world in his own timeline. So yeah, putting him last doesn't mean that I agree with the notion of him just being "a kind of cool character who has his moments." He has more compassion, motivation, and meaningful character development than most characters in this series. He's still one of the best DB characters, and arguably one of the only highlights of a rather lackluster story arc.
the best dbz character and more just a kind of cool character. he's the most sensible z fighter there is. even moreso than piccolo.
piccolo
kurama - i like him more than kuwabara.
Same as CX
Same as VLordGTZ.
he was called beyond perfect cell?
Results:
Kurama (Yu Yu Hakusho) - 13
Future Trunks (Dragon Ball) - 7
Piccolo (Dragon Ball) - 10
The Legendary Bandit moves on to the finals!
That concludes the semi-finals. The long-awaited final round will be posted momentarily.
Well, it's all come down to this, folks. After nearly 4 months, we've finally arrived at the ultimate, the definitive, the conclusive match of this competition. Nearly 300 characters from over 100 different anime/manga series were nominated for this competition, and in the end, only four remain standing. These four are truly great characters and well-known to be favorites among many members of this board and participants of this competition. That said, when it comes to the title of "The Greatest," there may only be one. So, friends, now is the time to choose! To choose the hero that we may not need but deserves to win this competition. To choose the protagonist from anime/manga that stands above all others in the subgenre. Yes, it is now time for...
THE FINAL ROUND!
ASSEMBLE, ULTIMATE ANIME ALL-STARS!
WHO IS THE GREATEST...?

Joe Yabuki (Ashita no Joe)A worthy final round. All of these characters rank among my favorites. That said, for me, it is no choice at all to choose who I'd consider the most supreme. I've said much about these characters in the past at various points, so you'll have to forgive me for omitting explanations for the time being. I will try to add some in later if I can think of anything new to say, though:
Joe Yabuki
Yusuke Urameshi
Kurama
Kenshin Himura
Because this is the final round, I will leave the voting period up longer than usual. Everyone interested has until midnight Christmas Day to vote on this match, and the results will be posted within that hour. Now, I wonder, which of these characters will take the crown of the greatest anime/manga protagonist ever? Hmm....
Now that's a final round.
Kenshin Himura
Yusuke Urameshi
Joe Yabuki
Kurama
i had no clue this tournament had that many nominees.
Joe Yabuki
Kurama
Yusuke Urameshi
Kenshin Himura
yusuke - i have been a fan of his for 13 years, which is almost most of my life. probably the most charismatic character i've ever seen in any form of fiction. i am glad my brother got me into this show.
kenshin - i lost cable for awhile back then and soon after, i saw rk come on. i have been picky about anime for a long time and was skeptical about getting into this one based off of the toonami intro promo. boy, what a waste of skepticism. the episode i watched was the final jinei (sp?) episode. it was the perfect series introduction episode since it covered a lot of basic elements that the series had. it remains my 2nd favorite episode. the 1st being my favorite rurouni kenshin anything. more than 10 years later, the manga would be the first (and still only) manga i have finished.
kurama - he showed that he was more main hero material than any other supporting character during chapter black.
joe
Wow. I couldn't ask for a better final round. All of these are among my favorite anime and manga characters of all time, and no matter who wins, you can't possibly go wrong here.
Joe Yabuki- The Champion of the Slums
Kenshin Himura- The Legendary Wandering Samurai
Kurama- The Deadly Former Demon-Fox Bandit
Yusuke Urameshi- The Strongest Street Punk Turned Spirit Detective Of The Human Realm
I'll save my specific character comments for the actual final ranking.
GSF: You kind of seem to have forgotten to bother ranking the other 2 characters in this final round. :sweat:
i got cut off before i could finish.
Kurama
Joe
Yusuke
Kenshin
What a great final round!
Merry Christmas to one and all,
My present to thee,
Results definitive and final,
To put under your tree.
We've met 288 Heroes, from various manga and anime,
But only one is the greatest, on this Christmas Day.
So sit by the fire, warm up yourselves,
And stop, for one second, watching tv specials with reindeers and elves.
Stay comfy in your seats, with computers on your lap,
And don't switch to some other tab to go off and fap.
Because here's what you've been waiting for, for four months or so,
It's the conclusion of this competition, so let's stop rhyming, here we go!

And so, folks, that's a wrap,
I hope you're satisfied with who won.
Have a very merry Christmas, stay in good health,
And rest assured, a new competition will soon come...
Well, that was a fun competition. There were quite a few heated rounds, too.
Thanks for running it, Cartoon X! *applause*
booo.
merry christmas you two and everyone else. what's next?
I literally have no complaints about this turnout. Only on this board could such a niche and obscure character (outside of Japan) win, with two of the runner-ups being from my favorite anime of all time, and, and the other from my favorite WSJ manga, and 2nd favorite manga in general.
And yes, you could berate this for being only shonen characters if you want, but that doesn't change the fact that they are all still great and memorable characters, all the same.
I'm too tired right now, but tomorrow I'll post my thoughts on each of these characters specifically.
Yes, AnJ is worth reading.
Great turn-out, everybody!
So, Joe won, huh?
I have no problem with this whatsoever.
