I'm going to end this round somewhat earlier than I usually would, but I think everyone who was going to vote this round has voted by now anyway.

Results:

Superman: The Animated Series - 22
Pinky and the Brain - 18
The Slayers NEXT - 20
Legion of Superheroes - 10

Superman celebrates 75 years and the Slayers gives a reason for life by moving on to round 2 of this competition. I'm pleasantly surprised that The Slayers NEXT is advancing and not Pinky and the Brain as I predicted.    I think the results for the next match should be interesting to see as well...

Round 1, The 100 Toon Kumite: Match 7


The Simpsons

VS.


Total Drama World Tour

VS.


Dexter's Laboratory

VS.


The Powerpuff Girls

My Picks:

The Simpsons - At it's best, The Simpsons was brilliant, hilarious, and by far one of the smartest animated series to ever have been written, and those classic seasons still are to this day. Even though the bad seasons now outnumber the good 2:1, the good stuff is really good, and still hilarious for me after all these years, which is why seasons 1-10 still make the show one of my favorite animated series of all time to this day.

The Powerpuff Girls - It's easily one of the best cartoon cartoons, probably second best after Ed, Edd, n' Eddy if I looked at them objectively. So many episodes are still hilarious to this day, and honestly, even seasons 5-6 have some winners in them and there really is only at most 4 or five really awful episodes from them that I outright don't like, which is more than I can say for...

Dexter's Laboratory - At it's best, Dexter was absolutely brilliant. "Beard to be Feared," "Gooey Aliens," "Mock 5," "Unfortunate Cookie," "Labels," "Snowdown" and  "Muffin King," among other awesome episodes, still remain enjoyable to me to this day and some of my favorite episodes of any animated series of all time. That being said...the last two seasons. They are godawful. Irredeemably godawful, worse than shit, but a putrid, vile glop of terrible vomit-inducing mediocrity only rivaled by Johnny Bravo season 4 as some of the absolute worst things Cartoon Network has made. Seasons 5-6 of The Powerpuff Girls are weak seasons, but there are at least a couple of great episodes in them too, and only a few episodes of them are outright unwatchable. Dexter's Labratory's last two seasons...I mean, I guess there's "Dexter's Wacky Races," but that's about the only decent episode of the bunch. I really love this show at it's best, I really do, but it's wasn't as great as The Simpsons at it's best to allow me to ignore it's worst for a competition like this, so compared to The Powerpuff Girls, I have to give it a rank lower.

Total Drama World Tour - I think this is easily the best Total Drama series to date, and a very fun show beginning to end. I love what they did with Cody and Heather in this season, and Alejandro was an excellent antagonist (the only really good one besides Heather in this franchise, in my opinion), and of course, I love musical numbers in animated tv shows, so that was a plus as well. However, I only like the show, whereas I love the other three series featured in this match, and I'd certainly say it's the weakest of the contenders this round, so putting it last was a no-brainer for me. Still, like I said, this is actually a pretty good show, much better than any Total Drama series before and after, and I'd say it's worth watching if you haven't seen it before and you have the time.

[Spark Of Spirit]

This one I'm going to think on since I have to factor in a lot of good and bad material.

Same as Cartoon X.

I actually kind of like Total Drama, but it's the weak link here IMO.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

The Powerpuff Girls- Yeah, the post-movie material isn't too hot (but I also don't downright hate it, as its not nearly as bad as either DL or JBVO got), but everything before that was great, IMO, and I don't agree with anyone who says that this show hasn't aged well, because out of all of the cartoon cartoons save for maybe Ed, Edd, n' Eddy, this show has humor that has aged the best of all of them, IMO. Its incredibly witty stuff and also a great parody of superheroes in general.

Dexter's Laboratory- The revival episodes are complete trash, and kind of hurt this show. That said, the first 52 episodes are gold (well, mostly), and Last But Not Beast alone makes this one of the best cartoon shows ever, as far as I'm concerned.

The Simpsons- I respect it for its importance in animation history, but even going by the seasons in the show's peak, I find the show to be really entertaining with some great episodes, but being that I didn't grow up with it, I guess it just never left as much of an impression on me as it did everyone else.

Total Drama World Tour- Haven't seen it.

[The Shadow Gentleman]

Same as Avaitor.

That reminds me...I have to finish watching the good Simpsons seasons. 

[gunswordfist]

I have to finish watching the good The Simpsons episodes as well. In fact, I'll start over again.

Dexter's Lab - The very best Cartoon Cartoon.
The Simpsons - Greatest animated sitcom ever.

Round 1, The 100 Toon Kumite: Match 8


Home Movies

VS.


Samurai Jack

VS.


King of the Hill

VS.


Tiny Toon Adventures

My Picks:

King of the Hill - My favorite animated sitcom of all time. It's good to bad episode quality ratio is extraordinary, and there is really only episode I absolutely dislike, which is saying a lot when you consider it's 250+ episodes long and none of it's former peers from FOX's sunday night animation block can boast the same thing. It sucks it's no longer on Netflix and the dvds only go up to season 6, but I'm glad [adult swim] is committed to airing two hours of this show every night, at the very least.

Home Movies - I've always really loved Home Movies and it's brand of spontaneous humor that sounds natural because of how the actors improvised the lines during recording. It's definitely one of the best shows [adult swim] ever put up on air, and I'm hard-pressed to think of many episodes I dislike.

Samurai Jack - This show had lots of brilliant episodes that I still love to this day...but also a lot of slow, and kinda boring, episodes as well. It's got pacing and time issues in a lot of episodes, and it's a chore to watch it when it wastes time or has "filler-y" moments (pretty much the last half of the final episode featuring the Scotsman epitomizes my misgivings on that). Still, there's no denying it's artistic and storytelling brilliance, but I just wish the whole thing was more consistently excellent, not sometimes amazing and  occasionally dull. 

Tiny Toon Adventures - The animation for this show, much like the other silver age WB cartoons, is gorgeously fluid and almost makes me really enjoy the show...but, the writing hasn't aged all that well, and it's type of zany/reference humor no longer comes off as well to me as in other (less well-animated, even) shows I've seen, and while there's lots of episodes that I still enjoy and really like, I only like this show now. I can't deny it's well-written and smart, but it doesn't entertain me much any more, and I'm more distracted by how fluid the animation is than paying attention and laughing at the jokes, which I find quite saddening, honestly.
