Skullgirls DLC Character vote | The Campaign united us, The Voting will destroy us

This last round is impossible to predict. Where will the former dude voters be drawn- and how many will just straight up not participate in the final round of voting? I think I may be more excited for vote data than the actual characters being made at this point, haha.

Unless the votes somehow get split by a crazy amount I'm expecting either Annie or Minette to win.

I can get behind giving her Haohmaru stuff. Give her a slow, long range heavy sword slash that hits like a fucking truck and takes like 50% on counterhit or something.

"We only have 1 sword user in the cast, so we gave her every Knife, Broadsword, Katana, Nodachi, and keyblade attack we've ever found cool, in some way."

Add in massive, dramatic slowdown upon landing the blow, and a Haohmaru / Nakaruru palette, and we'd be in business.

I want Minette to win as I want to see a "joke character" done right so they are not terrible. Also, she is quite adorable.

Manaka of Aquapazza, or heck, even Shingo in KoF fit that kinda bill. If she ended up as awesome as those 2, I'd be quite happy, and impressed.

Q \/- lol. That is a good point.

Neither of those is an anime like the show I'm talking about. I liked the Sailor Moon anime enough too. Tuxedo Mask was the shit. :p

Not gonna try to compare Madoka with the things you mentioned because I didn't read the manga or see the live action show.
The SM anime is an extremely loose adaptation, with significant changes in content and tone from the original work.

I also mentioned the TV version of Vampire Princess Miyu, which is arguably presented as a magical girl show and is really messed up.

How'd I miss that? Looks pretty promising and I'm glad the DVDs are still floating around. Gonna go ahead and bookmark this show for a nice blast from the past someday. It's a shame this older stuff isn't available for easy paid streaming. :/

Yeah... the fact that she could get tons of sword references completely flew over my head. No way she is only Sol at all. Being the only sword character means we could see a big mix of original and familiar moves in one. There are six buttons so the field is wide open for variety.

Serious suggestion, give her Haohmaru's Flame of the Conqueror super but with a galactic motif.

Minette should totally get something like

for a victory pose. Customer Satifaction GET!

Though it'd probably end up more like

- Much less demanding to animate, at least...

Put in my vote for Eliza. Wouldn't be upset at any of the other characters winning though. I've especially taken a liking to Annie lately. The fan art is too godlike!

Take the high res version if you've got a large monitor. I'm tempted to change my default background to a matching color so I can use it for a BG more often.
Was kind of a pain in the ass getting around W7's automatic compression, but this'll be how my computer will be greeting me for the next week.

Guys I'm on the voting screen and I don't know who to pick. So conflicted. I feel like my vote really matters. First reply gets my vote.

Minette :)

Haha, no, that's not the effect I was trying to... err.. Minette would totally have a sword user as a customer, and also a solid version of Lei Lei! Yeah, that's it...

I would also hope that Eliza's Scythe could pull off some crazy weapon attacks, though, to be serious. Some crazy Kyoshiro / Testament /Zasalamel style stuff.

(I remember when AnimEgo announced the dub of the Miyu OVA at our local anime con... I had very little idea of what the show was, but seeing you guys talk about it brings back the memory...)

Voted Minette.

Man, waiting for the next week to pass is going to be excruciating.

*Minette gains 10 points of confidence!*

This would be the best thing about accelerated voting rounds; you don't have to wait for a whole WEEK to get a decent answer, ha.

Serious suggestion, give her Haohmaru's Flame of the Conqueror super but with a galactic motif.
Smash 'em with the entire "The More You Know!" Logo!

Hahaha I could see her with something like May's instant kill to

Which has like no pics anywhere :( Kept trying to think of more I forgot! It'd be great to see her interact with satisfied customers... or even for dissatisfied ones (ones who failed in the fight?) to berate her... only to reassure her soon after.
 
Looks perfect, shame I hate red. :p
Gimp is your friend here.

Guys.

Listen.

What if.

Panzerfaust's tank arm had a crew inside of it.

A crew of girls. Like that awful 'girls in tanks' anime.

Girls und Panzer(faust).

They pop out during moves, supers, and opening/win animation.

Supporters of manly men and little girls come together as one.

Breaking down borders, people.


You can have this amazing and totally original concept as a freebie, Lab Zero.

Ugh, you know how to sell a character SAB, starting to have regrets about my vote.

*quote Minette Banner above*

It's a great thing we have 2 character rounds to vote for! ;)

At least your choice seems to be the next best thing! If either wins, and we end up with a similiar final 4 next time, I guess we'll have an easy time deciding the final votes, at least!

Go go TeamEliza! Classic western horror tropes & great playstyle ideas.

After all, if you want a waitress character, you've got Battle Fantasia right now. Gimme my stance changing vampire, people.
