War of the Animated Characters

Time and time again we have seen character battles between horror movies villains, action heroes, and the films themself. But what about the little people...the animated people. Yes, there has been battles between folks like Mickey Mouse against Bugs Bunny over the years, but no such tournament has occur here yet (might be wrong). Down below will be three characters who I have selected to start the tournament off with.

The Rules on Animated Characters

The rules of the game are simple, if it been animated, it can enter. But it must be avaiable in America in one form or another. So that means someone from Ninja Scroll can appear because it was offically released here, but nothing that has only fan dubs. Also no famous actor or actress who has been blessed with the fine form of animations. That does not hold true if the person was the star of a animated show. So Mr. T can appear in here because of his show, but not Mel Gibson appearing on Simpson.

Nomination Rules

Now for the general rules of this tournament. You will get three characters of your choice to nominated into the tournament, be it CGI or anime. Try not to dupicate a previously entered character and instead throw down some more names. And for the record, I would like to have the show named included.

Offically In the Tournament

None at the Momenet

Darkwing Duck - Darkwing Duck

Mr. Burns - Simpson

Thanks you all so far for the posts on this thread. The tournament is looking nice indeed, but in order to smooth it out, I had to change some rules. The votes for getting into the tournament have been delayed for the moment until all nominated characters have been entered. By the way George, what show is Private Snafu from?



I need a new signature.

Private Snafu is a looney tunes character like Bugs Bunny, although he only appeared in special ones made for the troops during WW2. Still it is available on dvd.

Loos like I'll be the first to nominate some anime characters. The no fan subs rule is a killer.

Vash The Stampede - Trigun

Kiki - Kiki's Delivery Serice

Legato Bluesummers - Trigun

Edit: It should be fan "subs" not fan "dubs".
