I saw this being discussed in The Show and thought I'm curious for what other people think.

Who is the strongest character in the main bracket, excluding Sephiroth?

(I mean Sephiroth might not be the strongest character but I think this poll is more interesting without him)

I wanted to add an "Other" option but I felt like all 10 characters deserve to be in this pool.

Squall is the #1 snub of the 10 response limit.

But I think Alucard is one of the strongest entries in this poll. He's doing an amazing run.

Is X even officialy called "Megaman" ? hes just blue and looks like him and his games are called "megaman", but the character's name as far as i'm aware is just "X"

like, Zero has his own series called "Megaman Zero" but he's just Zero.

In the opening to the very first game he is.

Anyway, they are separate characters, they look different, you may as well complain about Solid Snake v. Naked Snake.

Neither of them are stars of their own game. They have completely different designs to the casual gamers eye. MM and MMX are both predicated on the same premise: robots with gun arms and other cool types of guns throughout the game.

Mega Man's best friend is a red dog.

Aerith is the introduction in FFVII to a red dog.

Mega Man X's closest buddy of the same gender dies.

Tifa's closest buddy of the same gender dies.

If Mega Man X and Mega Man are the same, Tifa and Aerith are.

The Mega Man and MMX comparisons are largely due to their appearance. Nobody is going to mistake Aeris and Tifa. I get you're memeing but Mega Man and X are so similar that casuals might not even know the difference.

I don't believe in judging others based on their appearance they were born with, therefore I don't see any merit in using that as an argument.

Also given how Chun-Li and Ryu have looked, that beating Kirby put on Guile is pretty much the definition of WOW.

I would say MMX too, but I think calling him non-Noble 9 is a bit of a grey area. He was explicitly stated to have been "in" all the pre-2008 contests via Mega Man.

The Links are way more similar to each other though.

Like, I heard there's an episode in the MMX anime where he meets MM and the two fight because they have different worldviews.

That stuff just doesn't happen with Link.

Yeah Mega Man and Mega Man X are very different characters. They'll have similar strength just like Ganondorf and Zelda will have similar strength because their role in games GameFAQs like is similar in similar games they like but they're not at all alike aside from their powers. I'd vote Mega Man over a ton of stuff that I wouldn't vote X over.

Mega Man and X are completely different robots who existed at different times, and while they have a similar color scheme and functionality mostly due to having the same creator, they don't look like each other in the slightest and it's not like X has any memory of being Mega Man Classic to justify lumping them in as the same character.

Honestly I gotta say Zelda right now. Her numbers have blown me away so far.

Which is odd because she has always been strong but not like super duper strong. Like I as well as many others picked Squall > Zelda without hesitating. Now that's really questionable.

The people saying X shouldn't be in the contest have clearly never played a Mega Man or Mega Man X game. Besides this, why wouldn't you want to have a strong non-Square, non-Nintendo character in the bracket? Do we really need the top 20 to be entirely Final Fantasy and Nintendo characters?
