Welcome to Kanai Ward Census!

2024 Top Raincode Character Survey Results

vvv Info about this blog under the read more vvv

This blog is dedicated to polls/tournaments about Raincode. Characters, ships, anything to do with the game! Run solely by Mod Alfie, I will host my own polls and tournaments while reblogging any polls and tournaments that have Raincode characters or ships in them. (Please, tag me in any that you see and I haven't reblogged yet.)

This post will host the links to brackets for any tournaments I will hold in the future. We've already run two, with the Most Popular Character of 2023 Tournament and the Most Popular Ship Tournament. 2024 will bring many more tournaments and polls, but this is a community-centered blog- have a tournament/poll idea? A question for your fellow Raincoders that can be put to a poll? Send me an ask, and I'll do what I can to get that poll out. I use a queue, though, so it may take some time. Currently my schedule is one poll a week.

This is a place to have fun, talk about a game we love, and press buttons. Please, no discourse! It's okay to dislike something, but I don't want to invite hatred on my blog. Even if I personally dislike something, I will try to remain as neutral as possible- ships, characters, anything. The only time I'll present my opinion is when I very very very much enjoy something. Again, this is a place for fun!

Here's a list of our previous tournament winners and completed brackets.

Most Popular Character (2023) - Winner: Yuma Kokohead

Most Popular Ship (2023) - Winner: Clockmare

Rain Code Minibang!!

Hello, hello everyone! After the results of this poll, we ended up with a tie between a minibang and a DTIYS event. I decided to act as the tiebreaker and pick the minibang, so that writers and artists alike can participate!

With that in mind, I've created a short registration form for the minibang, so that I can not only gauge interest, but see who could be paired up for it.

If you're interested, then please fill out the form below!

Day 31: Dance

I confess I had nothing in mind for this one, I was out of ideas and so, I ended up going to see some dance poses, and about the outfit, I was researching anything, I just admire the shoes he's wearing.

So I guess this is the end, wow, I thought I was going to give up but I ended up accomplishing it all! Would you believe that I made all the drawings in just two days? Well, only his birthday drawing was ready a few months ago, but the rest, I managed to do within two days of New Year's.

Tw: 🎭⚠️

I want to thank everyone who has managed to endure so much Makoto content so far, I still plan on continuing to do so, because he really is my favorite character and current obsession. XD

The fact that I drew him for two whole days proves that I really like him compared to past obsessions from other years, I confess that I have never made so much content of a single character as for him.

My style is not the best, but I try to graphically show my ideas with some help anyway...

You probably think I need a break, right? Haha, don't worry, I'm fine, I don't regret doing this! Thanks for creating this, @kanai-ward-census , this was really cool to do in two days. I still want to make Makoto content, but I'll try to make it on the others.

Day 30: Fanfic Trope

Mmmm, for this, I used the Hurt/comfort trope

Tw: 🎭🔎⚠️

Yuma comforting Makoto about his past and traumas in the Fanfics you guys made is really cute.

See this manga, and the fanfic itself, I was really moved reading this, and wanted to do something about it, I still like mirror images.

Day 29: Dessert

I was looking for information about Japanese desserts and found an interesting one.

Tw: 🎭👘⚠️

Well, the shape didn't turn out well, but it's fine, yes, this is a Japanese sweet that can also be served as a snack. Dango (団子) is a Japanese skewered sweet dumpling made with rice flour and glutinous rice flour. Hanami (花見) means flower viewing (of cherry blossom), and during this season, many people go out for strolls through the magnificent columns of the flowering trees. The Japanese have long celebrated and admired the beauty of cherry blossoms by having picnics beneath the blooms. At the picnics, we enjoy spring-themed foods in bento and wagashi which often incorporate seasonal flavors. One of the popular sweets you can find at pop-up food stalls during the cherry blossom season is hanami dango (花見団子). The dumplings come in pink, white, and green springtime hues, so they are also called sanshoku dango (三色団子).

The fact that I chose a food that reminded me of flowers was no coincidence..

He probably bought or won this Dango in some food festival.

I would eat, would you eat?

Day 28: Scene Redraw

Another thing I found difficult was choosing a scene from him and trying to draw it. It's clearly not going to be 100% the same or pretty, but... I try, it works. With what I can and what's within my reach.

To be honest, I don't have a favorite scene, every scene he appears in, he manages to gain an interesting spotlight, taking the stage from others, with this mysterious and strange charm.

Day 27: Past

Tw: 🎭🧪⚠️

Pre-game Makoto? Past Makoto? Experiment 001? Anyway, I tried to make it different, because I have another version of Lab Makoto, so this version here would be the one where he was basically the same as his original self.

Day 26: Anger

Tw; 🎭😡⚠️

Getting so angry that you cry? Yeah, not accepting that people care about you? Yeah, doubting everyone? Definitely him.

I still think he can't control his emotions well and ends up exploding, screaming, crying, and so on. I'm almost like that.

Day 25: crossover 🎭🎶

Oh yeah, The Marionette from Five Nights at Freddy's 2 was my hyperfocus in 2019. Like, even though I always loved Golden Freddy, The puppet brought me fascination, and I loved my Fnaf AU.

Also, the mask thing is a bit interesting, I think Makoto would wear one of those Marionette masks, and the fact that he wears purple, he would be easily confused by someone...

Fnaf used to be cool to me.

Day 24: Scary

Tw: 🎭⚠️ + Horror, No eyes, black fluid.

Not that scary. I can't do something scary in My style. @kanai-ward-census

I was thinking about horror games where ghosts have black eyes like that, and also, black and white drawings. You might recognize the background.

Day 23: Teeth

Tw: 😅🎭⚠️

I think he didn't understand or I didn't understand.

He looks nervous, his teeth are normal dear. Try not to pay attention to his clothes.

Day 22: Book

I was wondering how these two would get along without Yuma.

I miss her. I don't know why she looked cute here. Boooo 👻

@kanai-ward-census

Day 21: Roleswap

Tw: 🎭⚠️

I know everyone had the same idea, but I want to share my interpretation.

Makoto swapping places with Yuma, there would be some changes, like, his physical appearance would change, the WDO uniform could be purple, because purple and yellow go together very well, Makoto being a complicated protagonist, Amaterasu and Detectives Agency would switch places. Imagine having Yomi as your chief?

Makoto would probably have less empathy for the culprits compared to Yuma, although we can say that he would also erase his memories and could become someone more emotional?
