Woah a full 32 bracket this time? please start blowing up my notifs if i forget to post the next polls after the last batch ends
For this bracket, I wanted to try to mitigate any issues with popular vs unpopular characters, so all popular characters are on the left side, and unpopular ones are on the right! I'm not the best judge on popularity though so I may have made mistakes and I'm pretty sure the characters on the bottom half of the right side are more popular than the ones on the upper half, but I tried my best to give our lesser known blorbos a fighting chance! Also to allow as many fandoms into the tournament as possible, I only picked one character per fandom as opposed to my usual 2.

"He'd literally be such a good dad, and it's totally plausible. He saves kids from the Apocalypse like they're Pokemon, and it is 100% possible that the Visitor would look at him and go "yeah, that's a dad, give him another baby". He literally sacrificed his ARM to get a rat baby. He saved a kid that was literally just TEETH. He would JUMP at the chance to have another kid, regardless of if he had to bear it or not.
The Visitor contorts people to what it perceives them to be. If it saw Sam's care for the children he already has, it would absolutely give him more kids, and he probably wouldn't even mind."
[Spike]
"he's pathetic especially in season 4. I think he should have to take care of a child, it would be fun. also just look at him he doesn't have a single parental bone in his body."
Are vampires considered within the realm of cannibalism media? Ive always been very into vampires and blood but not a fan of anything flesh related, and always considered them distinct.
But every once in awhile i see them inherently overlayed and it makes me wonder if im merely misconstruing when i thought cannibalism inherently had to include flesh. Personally i think blood drinking is a distinct category.
I suppose perhaps there is an inherent overlap in *some* theme exploration between the two, but not the same thing directly.
There have been many attempts to make a robot vampire, but this is probably the best design for one. He also nearly wins, beating even the series main villain.
Mamuwalde is a soft spoken (and that voice!!), gentle, but strong man who tried to use his influence to fight the slave trade before he was turned into a vampire by Dracula. Once turned Blacula struggles with his vampire hunger and it is really suprising touching if you just heard the title of the movies and expected kitschy horror slog.
First of the shadow riders to win a duel, and she wins two duels at that, even beating the then-undefeated Zane with her vampire deck.
Also she casually drops that in the universe of Yu-Gi-Oh!, humans and vampires used to live together before THE VAMPIRE WAR. This is never elaborated on.
Kyle Drako (Milo Murphy's Law)
is he a vampire? is he not a vampire? it's unclear, but his students sure love theorizing
He's a 3000 year old vampire who can read every memory with a touch. He's obviously batshit and is in charge of making sure vampires don't expose their existence to humans. He finds the vegetarianism of the Twilight vampires to be like. An eating disorder. Not ashamed to be at the top of the food chain.
He is technically an half vampire - which gives him specially abilities (daywalker) - he angsts about his darkness, but he is also suprisingly funny.

Cool half vampire that fights other vampires and any motherfucker that’s trying to ice skate uphill.
Spike (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
one of the characters of all time to me. Simultaneously both extremely cool and incredibly pathetic
---
He's also known as William the Bloody, not because he killed a bunch of people but because the poetry he wrote while human was 'bloody awful' lol. Also he eventually got his soul back for love reasons :)

Blonde. Bisexual. Billy idol stole his look. Loves like a dog. Was briefly a ghost. Writes poetry. Puts crushed up Weetabix in his blood because he likes the texture. Had a genuine friendship with the main characters mother.
