Well, it's somewhat misleading.

I at least know who he is

Though not well enough to actually know his name.

Totally watched that show a few times though.

Yeah, by the top 70 or something I'll be so eager to know if a little girl or a Harry Potter character will win this contest.

Problem with Legend of the Seeker(the show) was it was a poor mans Hercules/Xena lacking some of the fun those 2 had.
and Bruce. Anything done by Sam Raimi that lacks Bruce gets points taken.

I disagree with the Hercules/Xena thing. The show might not have been as "fun", but it was more serious and I liked the storyline/characters far more. It's what Hercules and Xena should have been if they were actually taken seriously by the writers and producers (society just prefers to see shows that aren't actually taken seriously, unfortunately).

Yeah it's pretty decent actually. It's a show I'd watch more of if I watched more TV. Makes me nostalgic for the old Hercules/Xena type stuff of the 90s.

Doesn't take much to be better than Ganondorf in any case.

Hah. Totally didn't see that Herc/Xena got brought in before I made that post.

But yeah I generally agree with what Kakashi said based on what I've seen. I don't think Hercules (post season 2) and Xena (ever-- not surprising that this lines up with the end of Herc season 2) had too much "fun" in them at all. Most good stories don't take themselves seriously all the time. Herc and Xena definitely had episodes and story arcs where the humor and whatnot was kept in a strong check, enough to make the storylines seem big.

They were mostly serious(Especially Xena. I mean she did go on a Olympian God killing spree more or less later seasons), but they also remembered they were silly at times and had fun with it, all while being somewhat uplifting(especially hercules).



the main take away from both was the disappearance of Ares, who was awesome. But there were reasons for that (R.I.P ;_;).


Seeker has no reasons for Lack of Bruce! He can make anything work!

I think my issue with the Seeker is that the characters just have less charisma in general. Like, it's not so much "we need a comedy episode" as much as "we need characters that can be funny/witty in scenes that aren't meant to be primarily funny." Like the feel is there and I'll take your word for it that the stories are as gripping (or moreso) but yeah I just don't like the characters as much, from what I've seen.

Why not make it the best of both worlds with a Luna Lovegood vs. Hermione Granger final? Lol, yes there are lots of lolis in here but there were less than ten HP characters to start with. How many OP characters were in the last contest again? >_>

I think you'd have to watch a little more to really say there's no charisma there with the characters. In particular, Zedd has plenty of it.

Oh, but that was quite hilarious at times.

I'm not even complaining nor really care THAT much about Ganondorf in a Wizards contest, but lol at him being 83rd.

I'm not saying they have no charisma. Just less in general.

And yeah IIRC Zedd was the best character on the show for this. Unfortunately he's mostly a supporting guy so. Like uh the main character I don't think pulls his weight nearly as well as Kevin Sorbo or Lucy Lawless did.

But yeah, it's possible I do need to watch more. Just the feeling I got after watching a handful of episodes here and there.

15 I think, but seriously that was a weak field and I could've done without the non-Strawhats+Usopp in a stronger field (I guess people who love Whitebeard would've wanted Whitebeard too).

But then again, half of my noms got smoked in these 17 days and many of the ones still in won't probably make it into the top 50 so... yeah, I'm in hoping one or two of them survive the loli wave by the end.

Zed is cool and interesting in the books. And it was great when he got out of a situation where he was going to be sacrificed by rolling around in the dirt and acting all childish. He is one of the best characters in the series to be honest. Richard is too preachy and Kahlan don't know I just can't stand her anymore.

Until save requirements are extended, it's much easier for many characters to advance by early rounds. If you look at both the other contests, plenty of notable characters fell off in the bottom 25.

Ganondorf is pretty terrible anyway. Even with a "weak field." In like a save my character battle character he's opening round fodder.

If we're complaining about Nintendo characters from big franchises dying early Kamek's the one to complain about.

I never got why some people hate Ganondorf anyway, I don't think there are any particular reasons to love him or hate him as a character except for TWW Ganon.

There's nothing to hate him about it's just there's nothing to really like him about either. And it's not even just like, he has characteristics that are interesting that don't resonate with me-- it's like... he has no real notable characteristics at all. Incredibly boring character in my books-- that's enough for me to hate on him. Super bland is worse than normal bad most of the time for me.

I'm pretty pissed Sirius went out in 84th. It's the only thing I'm resenting so far in this contest. I mean I wish I could've gotten Orpheus out of the bottom ten but I don't care that much about him and Mim was pretty much my joke nom so screw her. Sirius was actually my favorite wizard and if I'd known he was in any danger of going out before 75th I'd have saved significantly less characters that round. >_>

I don't know, I liked him in Wind Waker and I think he fits his role decently in OoT (TP is a different story). He's not a particularly interesting character, but I have more reasons to like him than I have to dislike him in the end.

He's also one of the only three characters I ever play in SSBM, so that might have something to do with it.
