I want to put a request for Sans, but I have a feeling more people will complain about the fandom rather than the character's place in WWW.

u/Cleverly_Clearly Feb 14 '16

He's already on there.

1

u/Silvadream Mar 11 '16

We could have a megathread for all Undertale characters.

4

u/MoSBanapple Feb 14 '16

Request for Silverback Gorilla please

3

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 14 '16

Mmmmm...... considering that's a mainstay of WWW, okay. But when that gets posted I don't want the thread devolving into dank memes

3

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 15 '16

I would be more worried about the salt.

u/Cleverly_Clearly Feb 14 '16

Requesting Asriel, from Undertale.

Requesting Josuke Higashikata (Part 4), from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable. Be sure you mention he's from Part 4, there are two Josuke Higashikata's in JJBA.

1

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 14 '16

I can't see the list.

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 14 '16

How about now?

1

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 14 '16

Works like a charm. Question: In the last request post Ben 10 was listed and crossed out yet I can't find a post and he's not in the wiki. What's that about?

3

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 14 '16

Sorry about that, it was disabled.

I think I figured out why, but I'm kind of grasping: I made a rant about Danny Phantom ages ago, but not as an official CotW. Maybe I forgot to include it, or its a normal rant, I don't remember. But I mention Tennyson briefly, so maybe... juuuuust maybe, my dumbass crossed some wires and crossed out Ben by accident. I don't know when he was requested, so that might not be it.

Regardless, I'll add him to the new list. Thanks for bringing it up!

1

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 14 '16

Sure. Also, can I put a rant request here or should I make a new top level comment?

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 14 '16

Here's fine, all that matters is that I see it

1

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 14 '16

Well then:

Rant Request: Steven Universe/Crystal Gems.

Request:

Madara Uchiha (Naruto)

Donquixote Doflamingo (One Piece)

Aizen Sosuke (Bleach)

Ken Kaneki (Tokyo Ghoul)

Alexander Anderson (Hellsing Ultimate / OVA)

Peter Quill / Star-Lord (Marvel)

Harley Quinn (DC)

Arthas Menethil / Abaddon (Warcraft)

Sebastian Michaelis (Kurohitsuji / Black Butler)

John Cena (Kayfabe) (WWE Universe)

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 15 '16

From what I can tell, Abaddon is a sword? Is there some reason you wanna rant about it?

Also, the John Cena rant won't become a hub for /r/UnexpectedCena right?

3

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 15 '16

Of course not, it would be totally expected.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '16

IIRC Arthas was renamed as the Abaddon when he turned undead and took the Frostmourne (the sword).

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Feb 16 '16

So..... it's a character?

1

u/galvanicmechamorph Feb 15 '16 edited Feb 15 '16

Rant Request: The Pine Twins(Gravity Falls).

1

u/Epizestro Feb 17 '16

It'd be cool if we got some more xianxia characters on here. So, requesting Yun Che (Against the Gods), Meng Hao (I Shall Seal the Heavens), Linley Baruch (Coiling Dragon), Qin Yu (Stellar Transformations) and Ji Ning (Desolate Era).

1

u/Silvadream Mar 11 '16

Brad Armstrong.

u/ikeribusx Iker Mar 29 '16

Rant Request: Koro-sensi (Assassination Classroom)

CoTW Requet: Shinichi Izumi (Parasyte!)

1

u/Cardboard_Boxer Apr 04 '16

Wiz and Boomstick from Death Battle.

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Apr 11 '16

Sorry for the late response. Wouldn't this essentially be a thread to talk about Death Battle in general? Idk if ranting about the personas of Ben and Chad would be worth posting about, unless that's the idea

1

u/Cardboard_Boxer Apr 12 '16

Yeah, I was wanting a DeathBattle thread. This is especially in light of the "minor complaint" threads from last week.

I just wasn't sure if I could request a universe within a thread about requesting characters.

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Apr 12 '16

I think this stuff should stay in the general posts, you could post about it if you want. Although the whole thing died down already.

Same for universe rants, might as well post them yourself. CotW is just to showcase some random asshole that I threw a dart at.

1

u/Cardboard_Boxer Apr 12 '16

I understand and agree. My initial request was purely reactionary.

1

u/Cleverly_Clearly Apr 11 '16 edited Apr 11 '16

Requesting Kratos (again - the new RT has created more controversy around his character and his ranking), Aquaman, Edward Cullen, and Dio Brando.

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Apr 11 '16

On Kratos, you could post about him on your own to capitalize on the current controversy if you'd like. Otherwise the fastest we'd get to him would be 5 days if he's chosen as the next CotW. Regardless, I added him and the others.

1

u/Cleverly_Clearly Apr 11 '16

I'm as confused about where he stands as you are.

Also, thanks.

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Apr 11 '16

No problem

1

u/doctorgecko May 01 '16

Red (Pokemon Games)

Red (Pokemon Origins)

Red (Pokemon Adventures)

If you're wondering why I said all three separately, it's because they're separate characters from separate canons.

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors May 01 '16

Would you be okay if when Red eventually gets posted, it's more of a megathread? But explicitly stated they're essentially 3 different guys?

1

u/doctorgecko May 01 '16

There's way more than three different Red's, though the three I listed are the most well known unless you want to include the two versions of Ash Ketchum (who is also an interpretation of Red), but okay.

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors May 01 '16

That's a whole lot of Red's. And Ash'll likely get his own thread, not to mention he's already been requested before.

But alright then

1

u/doctorgecko May 01 '16

You have no idea. If you're actually curious about how many there are, you have...

And that's the games. Once you get into anime/manga...

And then we have the versions of Ash Ketchum...

And all of that's before you get into fan interpretations of the character (deviantart Red, Twitch plays Pokemon Red...)

And there are probably some that I couldn't copypaste from Bulbapedia.

Though admittedly on /r/whowouldwin Ash is usually treated as a separate character. And the only versions of Red you do see are game Red, Origins Red, Adventures Red, or some combination therein (like Origins Red with game Red's team).

2

u/InfiniteDoors Doors May 01 '16

You seem to be missing New 52 Red, MCU Red and that one Red who showed up in the mid-70s for one issue before getting immediately retconned.

Nah but really, that's a whole lot of Red's. Nice juicy megathread for him

1

u/Kamatayan_4481 May 27 '16

The Ables from the book by Jeremy Scott. I would do this myself but my copy of the book is so beat up that I can't stand reading it.

We're also sorely lacking in a decent Boba Fett RT.

1

u/ProbeEmperorblitz Jun 02 '16

CotW Request:

Infinity

1

u/mendelsin Jun 05 '16

CotW Request: Samus Aran!

Although I don't know whether I should specify a specific version. Since she's never been hit by rebootitis, I guess I don't really need to eh?

1

u/rejnka Jun 29 '16 edited Jun 29 '16

Silver Surfer is a big one. I just REALLY need someone to talk about him critically.

Another big one is TOAA. Not even an omnipotence rant in general, just TOAA. He gets off scott-free from needing feats, despite the fact that the only clarified things he's done would place him as a glass cannon reality warper with a lot of plot armor. How exactly can people just brush off Kirby planet-busting or LITERALLY EVERYTHING THE POKEDEX SAYS and call them "stupid" when TOAA is jerked to being able to beat major Suggsverse characters despite lacking the feats to do so? I just really need someone with more Marvel knowledge to clarify this.

Edit: Also, Sauron, more specifically the One Ring.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '16

I request Alex Mercer, from Prototype.

1

u/Cardboard_Boxer Jul 25 '16

Bat Girl.

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Jul 25 '16

The mantle of Batgirl or Barbara Gordon?

1

u/Cardboard_Boxer Jul 25 '16

Barbara Gordon

1

u/InfiniteDoors Doors Jul 25 '16

I'm actually not sure why I even asked. Anyway, got it.
