Kill: Zatch Bell
Kill: Bakugan

Save: Bleach

I never watched either show, but I am familiar with them. I'd rather get rid of the shows I didn't watch than the ones I did. I don't really hate any shows on the list so I am not really gunning for anything in particular.

I think Bleach had a lot of potential. I understand the hate, I hate it for the same reasons. I would like to see a Bleach re-imagined. Something with better pacing and maybe a few conclusions for some story arcs.

Kill: One Piece
Kill: One Piece

I hate, hate, hate, all of the "humor" and "whimsy" in OP. I also hate at least 80% or more of all the character designs. On occasion you get a character with an actual not-terrible design in a fight with good animation, and it's amazing, the unique powers and interesting uses of them are great, which only serves to highlight the badness of the other 400+ episodes of "Luffy is stupid and the others yell at him with exaggerated angry faces while they meet a bunch of ugly people at the new island".

Save: Bleach

(Canon) Bleach was good, up to at least the introduction of the fake Karakura Town, with some moments here and there after.

Some general announcements:

1. I will no longer point out when a voting post breaks the rules. You guys are on your own from now on.

2. After Round 2, explanations must be in the main body of a post, not in the reason for editing.

Now that those are out of the way, let's talk Round 1 general facts and observations:

1. 52 users cast 157 votes for 42 different shows.
2. Yu Yu Hakusho sucked up 8 save votes while not receiving a single kill vote. It'll be a tough out later in the game.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Canadian here voting based on what he saw on Bionix (think Toonami only without a revival and no Steve Blum as Sam)

Kill: Inuyasha (never liked this show when I was younger and I'm still not a fan years later.)
Kill: Naruto (boring show with more filler than stuff actually advancing the plot)
Save: Gundam SEED (My favourite show on Bionix when it was on I still remember watching it so intently)

Saving Hamtaro because fuck the haters. Kill One Piece because there are simply better shows
The 4kids dub and edit is a major factor as well

Still hate Star Wars, and the never ending grind of One Piece has gotten to me. Just go away.

Save: Rurouni Kenshin. Because it has the best opening song ever in english

 

[Gintoki313]

I'm not sure if I should save Bakugan, One Piece, or Zatch Bell. Decisions, decisions. Why are we voting off top shows first, when we still have shows like Star Wars The Clone Wars on here?

Kill: Dragon Ball GT
Kill: Dragon Ball GT
Save: One Piece

I hated Dragon Ball GT, the whole turning into a kid thing was so stupid. Not to mention the adventures of Trunks, Pan, and Kid Goku. The only time I'll watch Kid Goku, is when its on Dragonball. The only good thing to come from the show, was the SSJ4 Gogeta fight which was hilarious.

My save for Bakugan and Zatch Bell will have to wait, too many kills for One Piece I've been seeing. One Piece is great, I've been hooked on it ever since (sadly) I first saw it on 4kids as a kid. Then I started watching it on Toonami, and then once Toonami went off. I switched to subbed. So in other words, I've been watching it for ever.

 

[Crayolan]

R.I.P. One Piece. At least you survived longer than SAO.

Kill:Bleach

Killing bleach cause it's the most boring show on the block right now, and saving OP on the off chance that it ties with Bleach just to screw with team hamtaro.

Kill: Dragonball GT

Save: One Piece

What the fuck is wrong with all the kill one piece? Kill something that's actually bad like Bleach.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

The only way these One Piece kills are justified is because the 4kids dub ran for quite a while. Otherwise what the hell.

 

[Moaradin]

Kill: Bleach - It's the most boring thing on the block right now
Kill: Bleach

Save: One Piece - fuck is up with the one piece hate? This better all be about the 4kids run and not the current one.

The "I just want to see the world burn" crowd is alive and well.

Because the current one is actually good.

...Minus the botched opening. I'm still angry at that.

That said, I can totally understand the 4Kids dub putting people off from One Piece. If I was only exposed to that piece of crap I would be killing it this round, too.

 

[Kid Ska]

So many haters. I think I may have to redact my save. It's probably futile at this point.

 

[789shadow]

So many haters. I think I may have to redact my save. It's probably futile at this point.

And then find out it could have been the one that saved the show from elimination? DON'T.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

One Piece is like 20 in the hole, it's going down.

 

[Papercuts]

So many haters. I think I may have to redact my save. It's probably futile at this point.

Sounds like a good idea.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

I counted One Piece at 24 as of this editing so unless there's an influx in rescues, this and Bleach will be on the chopping block.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

All according to keikaku (keikaku means plan)

 

[lazybones18]

now to decide what to take out next

KILL: Bakugan Battle Brawlers - Never liked this show
KILL: Bakugan Battle Brawlers
SAVE: Dragon Ball Z

I grew up with this show and I can't let go of it even in my 20s, I'm always excited with news of Dragon Ball Z.

 

[789shadow]

You won't be taking out shit, cause Hamtaro is going the fuck down.

 

[Crayolan]

now to decide what to take out next

What's your second favorite show after SAO?

 

[Gucci Messiah]

You won't be taking out shit, cause Hamtaro is going the fuck down.

Lol ok

now to decide what to take out next

Whatever makes 789 rage the most. I'm thinking Bebop.

 

[Man God]

YYH is next. Then DBZ, Cowboy Bebop, FLCL.

Hamtaro will make it all the way to the Top. It will be king of the pirates.

 

[789shadow]

YYH is next. Then DBZ.

Good luck with that one. It got 8 saves when it was never in danger of being voted out.

 

[Man God]

Good luck with that one. It got 8 saves when it was never in danger of being voted out.

Remember though, negative outweighs positive in this system. You need twice as many people to stop hate voting if they double tap.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Haven't you learned anything from watching anime? Never underestimate your opponent, the Hamtaro Alliance is fully capable of taking down Yu Yu Hakusho. Hubris shall be your downfall.

 

[Moaradin]

You assholes leave YYH out of this.

We've killed the best show currently on Toonami! What makes you think we can't take YYH out of this here dark tournament?

Save: Hamtaro

Voting for hamtaro because voting for GX is pointless and I can make things a bit more interesting. Insincere voting be damned.

I'm killing one piece because OP had the gall to PM me, telling me to change my vote to save one piece. I don't care either way and actually enjoyed the fragment of an episode I saw, but I'm forcing a backfire here.

2. Yu Yu Hakusho sucked up 8 save votes while not receiving a single kill vote. It'll be a tough out later in the game.

I can't think of any larger hubris than thinking you can go after Yu Yu Hakusho and not have your entire little alliance ignore you.

Methinks your cockiness should be a leash. the freedom of overconfidence shall lead to your alliances downfall.

I can't think of any larger hubris than thinking you can go after Yu Yu Hakusho and not have your entire little mental patient alliance ignore you.

1. I didn't come up with the idea of going after YYH, that was Man God

2. Mental patient alliance? Come on man, really? I think you're taking this game a little too personally, they're just cartoon shows. No need to throw around personal attacks because something you enjoy is losing.

You need to take a step back from the computer and chill out. You're beginning to get offensive.

 

[Yawnier]

I actually used to half enjoy Hamtaro a decade ago when it first aired in Canada on YTV, but I just can't stand it now. It grinds my gear like Jason Statham's voice (lol)

What's wrong with you people. One Piece is not the greatest show ever made but compared to SAO is like putting a diamond next to a dog turd.

The H-Alliance must stay strong and positive. No need for a Ham Ham Heartbreak.

We've killed the best show currently on Toonami! What makes you think we can't take YYH out of this here dark tournament?

But Space Dandy/One Piece/Soul Eater is still alive.



I guess I'm one of the few who likes both Hamtaro and One Piece. Why can't we be friends?

 

[bigkrev]

Jeez you guys suck. I had to go back and edit my second kill into One Piece because you are all changing your votes
