Good day, Colors players. My name is Elizabeth. I am here to host the most amazing battle tournament in existence - the Colorseum!
Don't worry, no one will get hurt, at least as long as I don't want them to... The battles will not be decided by strength or strategy, but rather by the ability to win the crowd's hearts! And the judges... will be you!

Want more details? My pleasure!
- Each 'round' will consist of 5 'sub-rounds', posted weekly. They will be First Round A, First Round B, Quarterfinals, Semifinals and the Final!
- Each round will have a theme - they work in a similar way to the Scrapbook things you use here.
- Each round will have 16 characters from various series fighting in one-on-one battles, in a form of a knockout tournament.
- You decide who will advance to the next round by casting your votes.
- The votes are unscreened, and every player participating will get the same prizes, regardless of the final results! That means you can always vote for the characters YOU like the most!
- Feel free to try to convince other players to vote for your favourites! Bribery, threats - anything goes! Just be civil about that.
- I will always vote last, just before closing the round. If two characters are tied after that, the one with the higher seed advances to the next round.

Now, let's see today's battles!

Our participants are seeded 1 to 16, based on the amount of nominations they received. Higher seed always holds the tiebreaker, if necessary.

The 77th round's theme is... SHARK-THEMED CHARACTERS! It's Aru's favorite round ever!

Let's look at the tournament bracket, then:

So, are the participants ready? Here are today's battles:

ROUND OF 16, PART 1

BATTLE 1

(seed 1) Rin Matsuoka (Free!) versus (16) Kisame Hoshigaki (Naruto)

BATTLE 2

(9) Tia Harribel (Bleach) versus (8) Kyoko Himekawa (Marriagetoxin)

BATTLE 3

(5) Jinbe (One Piece) versus (12) Agito Wanijima (Air Gear)

BATTLE 4

(13) Ryouga Kamishiro (Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL) versus (4) Samekichi (Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea)

You can vote using this form, though it is not mandatory.

You don't have to vote in every pair. However, for each vote you will get a random crayon, making it a total of four random crayons.
Remember, the prizes are the same for everyone, no matter who wins the battles! So vote for your favourites, not the characters you 'expect' to win.

You can look at results of all the battles so far at our website!

This round will close on 30th May, Central European time!
