Colors TCG 5th Anniversary - Day 20



[UN]Favorite Characters



Last day, last topic and what better way to finish this than talking about your favorite and/or unfavorite characters? You can make your comment to be any combination of;

♥ talk about 1 favorite male & 1 favorite female
♥ talk about 1 unfavorite male and 1 unfavorite female
♥ talk about 1 favorite female and 1 unfavorite female
♥ talk about 1 favorite male and 1 unfavorite male
♥ talk about 1 favorite male, 1 favorite female, 1 unfavorite male, 1 unfavorite female

What we're going for here is keep it balanced somehow and don't just talk about one character, yes? Comments can be long or short, so feel free to talk as little or much as you want. Also feel free to replace the unfavorite term with something like characters you dislike, or can't stand or whatever works for you. My own favorites are very obvious from this post when you look at the banner & my icon in case you were wondering about the FMA/SNK bias, haha!

Talking about any of those combinations will earn you 1 choice card of a male character, 1 choice card of a female character & fivetastic20 - you're free to log them all into your post as soon as you're done posting your comment here! No need to wait for my replies on this one since it's not screened. If you talk about all four, I'll give you two random crayons along with everything else in my reply to you!

Aaaaaaand that's it for this year's anniversary, I hope all you amazing people had fun through it and thank you so much for participating!♥

...Or well, no this isn't actually the real last day since Raven's going to post Bonus Day tomorrow, so look forward to that too! :D

Like the other anniversary posts, this will close on July 1st at noon GMT!
( also I stole this from Fel's 2013 anniversary post... shamelessly using her amazing ideas, so don't think I came up with this myself! :x )

Oh man this is a pretty hard topic because I can't decide who to talk about in terms of faves....but since I'm in Magi hell right now I might as well talk about characters from that?? Soo....

Obviously my favorite male character is Sphintus and admittedly it was only when I saw that he had a deck here that I was sold on signing up. He seems to be overlooked quite a bit in the fandom though, despite being pretty important to the development of a more popular character (maybe it's because his significance was downplayed in the anime? blearhg......) Aside from his being a very visually pleasing character (ahem...), he's probably my fave because his character took a completely different turn than what I expected and he turned out to be one hell of a cutie.

As for my fave female character, it's Kougyoku, who, now that I think about it, had a pretty similar "start out pretty terrible then turn out to be the cutest thing ever" going on as with Sphintus. Vinea is also really heck cool and I'm so glad she never really falls out of "action girl" status. And maybe I'm just very biased towards the Kou Empire in general since they take so much from ancient China and that's something I'm very very familiar with.

Welp I might as well go all the way and talk about all four?? I mean.......I've always wanted to talk about how I don't like Sinbad. Because I don't. I really don't. Which is a huge shame because he's a very attractive character, his voice actor is freaking Daisuke Ono, and I grew up with Sinbad the Sailor as a big part of my childhood and I want to like him. He's the type of character I usually like too?? It's just that right from the get go when I realized what role he was playing I got a very bad hunch about his character and took everything he did and said with a grain of salt from then on. And then in some relatively recent chapters my bad hunch got more or less confirmed and it had to involve Kougyoku too of all things and oops goodbye any chance of my liking him in the main story anymore. (I haven't read his spin off yet so...maybe I'll like his past version more? I don't know, my dislike for him is keeping me from reading it in the first place do you see my problem here.)

As for a female character I don't like, that's easily Arba for the simple reason that (spoiler warning) I loved Solomon and Sheba and I was so angry with what she did to Sheba holy cow plus she was really REALLY creepy as Gyokuen. Pretty hard to insist on filial piety when your mom is as crazy as her. I'll admit that she had a pretty awesome fight scene at her end though, but then I was eagerly waiting for her death and rooting for the other guy the entire time (which is saying a lot because I happen to HATE the other guy too). Her death could not have been any more satisfying oh god........

...uh, I'll take kukulcan05 and vinea01.

Thank you!

I'm horribly slow as well, though I get the feeling that what happened with AoT for you is pretty much what happened with Magi for me ;)

I'm unfamiliar with AoT but yes, that's pretty much exactly it haha - inexplicable least faves? It just happens sometimes and explaining is so hard.

(And it's been a few weeks but I still haven't started on the sidestory and I'm starting to think I should probably just skip it completely.)
