This poll is now closed.
128 characters, 128 rounds, including a round to find third place. This time we're going to dip into manga/anime, with one of the most iconic series in the medium -- Dragon Ball!

This tournament covers every part of the series -- original series, Z, GT, Super, the movies, there are even a couple of characters from the games in here. I made the bracket as well as I was able to, since there wasn't a large enough popularity poll to base the seeding off of this time, so hopefully I matched everyone up well enough that nobody gets robbed too early in this.

Round ninety-one! Bardock vs. Trunks!
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/5/52ac422b.jpg
Reminder that this is the younger Trunks from the Buu Saga and Super, not the time-traveling future Trunks from the Androids/Cell Saga.

Rules are simple: Vote for the character that you like the best, and want to advance in the tournament. Rounds last 24 hours, give or take, because when you're an adult sometimes things happen and you can't always be around to post an anime contest on a dying blue websight. In the event of a tie, it will be determined by a never-controversial Lightning Round of votes. The winner of each round advances to their next match, and the loser goes to HFIL.

Note that if you accidentally vote for the wrong character, too bad, I won't manually adjust. Can't be bothered to.

Even though Future Trunks is the better Trunks, any Trunks still beats Bardock.

If we are talking Kid Trunks from the end of Z, then him. But if we include Goku Black Trunks, then Bardock.

I really don't understand how they managed to screw that one up. Here's a guy who fought the Androids, Cell and at the very least Dabura, yet when he returns from the other dimension he looks scrawny, and has somehow dropped down a foot in height, despite being something like 6'3 after leaving the time chamber. I digress, different argument for a different time.

Because Future Trunks didn't have anywhere near the same experiences or training that Kid Trunks had. Different timeline, operating under multiverse theory -- they're two completely different people.

I like playing Bardock in FighterZ.

Trunks as well, but that's Future Trunks, not the one in this poll.

This one would be a tough one for me if we were talking about Future Trunks, as he and Bardock are about equally awesome imo. But considering it's regular Trunks we're talking about, Bardock.

So I guess this tournament is at the point where I should start considering if I want to run a fourth tournament and what it should be, huh

I wouldn't mind doing another video game series, just not sure which one. My initial thought was Mortal Kombat but I'd probably run into a roster size problem, plus it would be REALLY confusing with how many times the timeline has reset and characters became vastly different from previous entries in either personality, story role/moveset, or both.

I'm looking at you, Kuai Liang, who is now for some reason Scorpion instead of a cryomancer.

I wonder if I want to put the effort into a Best Pokemon tournament?

'Bardock'

I can't vote against the father of the main protagonist (who is in most cases cooler than his kid).

Meanwhile, Trunks loses points for that version of him that used a sword.
