Strap in for Round 3 of the Magical Summer Tournament!

Now narrowed down to a sweet crop of 16 contestants, we're wrapping up the first half of the tournament!

What a fun group collected before us! The cosmic power of Genie and the feisty nature of Tinker Bell. The dream-maker wand and the king maker Merlin. The soaring Magic Carpet and the restrained Tia Dalma. The manifestation of Atlantis and the Magic Mirror on the Wall. Maleficent as a massive dragon and a practically perfect Mary Poppins. The wise and blind Mama Odie and the wise and rooted Grandmother Willow. The very good boy guide Dante and the owl-cast witch Eda. The Queenly Mayor Mills and the protective spirit Pepita.

This round will be a single group of 8 polls open for a week. They will be posted tomorrow.

Standard details and full bracket:

There will be reblogs at the halfway mark and with 24 hours remaining for each poll. We do your best to look out for and reblug any propaganda added in a reblog or submitted by ask. (We don't scour tags or replies)

We do encourage propaganda as you feel comfortable but we do ask you to remain respectful of other people participating. Meaning, you can go after a character as much as you want but don't be nasty to the submitter/supporter.

In the event of a tie, both will move onto the next round to face off against the winner of the neighboring poll. We have published the smaller bracket and will use that at the top for the rest of the tournament but will keep the large brackets down here. As you can now see, there will be a third place round--unless there is a tie in the semi finals. Usually this is where we give credit to the background images, but we think it would be fun if you all tried to guess it!

Disney's 2026 Legends

Who are you most excited to celebrate?

Chris Berman - ESPN Anchor & Sportscaster

Jerry Bruckheimer - Producer

Susan Egan - Stage & Voice Actor

Eric Goldberg - Animator & Director

Anne Hathaway - Stage & Screen Actor

Bob Iger - CEO

Kim Irvine - Imagineer

Dwayne Johnson - Screen & Voice Actor

Remaining time: 2 days 18 hours

The award ceremony begins at 1:30 Pacific time but events related are scheduled for the few days before. Ideally, this is a celebration of creativity, art, & accomplishments and pulls from various aspects of the entire Disney company's reach (if heavy on the acting). While we don't think everyone is going to be a fan of all 11 people, hopefully a few of them are recognizable by their works in a good way. (but if not, there's option 12)

Voting here does not need to rely on the Disney credits.

Magical Summer: Round 3 Poll 3

Magic Carpet v Tia Dalma aka Calypso

Who is the better magical character?

Magic Carpet

Tia Dalma

Remaining time: 4 days 23 hours

Magic Carpet :: Aladdin franchise

Magic is /in the name./

Not only is he a remarkable combination of hand-drawn and early computer animation (since his carpet pattern was applied to his hand-drawn outline in the computer), but he's full to the brim with character and emotion despite being a fully mute character. He also quite frankly saves Aladdin's butt way too many times to count, to the point that in the TV series, the villain Mechanicles deduces that if he wants to keep Aladdin from interfering in his plans, he needs to deal with Carpet and Genie first.

He's polite, sensible, helpful, expressive, curious, and willing to have adventures. There is there literally nothing to critique about him He's also a nonverbal object without a face, which makes him more endearing, due to his expressive and distinct personality. How could you not like him?

Magical Summer: Round 3 Poll 5

Maleficent (Dragon) v Mary Poppins

Who is the better magical lady?

Maleficent

Mary Poppins

Remaining time: 4 days 23 hours

Maleficent (Dragon) :: Sleeping Beauty (1959)

Mary Poppins :: Mary Poppins films (1964, 2018)

This magical nanny is so awesome she almost defies descriptors. Is she a witch? Possibly. A fae? Perhaps. Is she some other kind of immortal deity who never ages? It's totally plausible. Even her magic itself is hard to explain or quantify -- were those chalk drawings Bert drew always full of people and animals, or was that all just created whole-cloth with Mary's magic? We see her make things float, understand animal speech, and even turn back time in the sequel. And then of course there's the aspect of adults "always forgetting" the magic they've experienced with her that's explicitly stated in Mary Poppins Returns -- is that just a side effect of Mary's magic, or is that something she actively does? And all this while always looking and acting perfectly put-together and classy.

[imagitory]

Uh, pardonne-moi?? What do you mean my girl Mary is losing?

Look, I get it — I like dragons too. Maleficent’s a bad-ass. “Mistress of all Evil,” sure. But considering we’re just talking Maleficent’s dragon form alone here? I don’t recall Mary dying from a sword to the chest. I don’t recall Mary ever being petty or losing her temper enough to turn into a story-high fire-breathing lizard — no, if we look at the musical, if Mary gets mad at you, she’ll force you to drink your own toxic medicine and then lock you up in a birdcage, all with the coldest composure. (I must admit, though, the image of Mary Poppins decked out in armor and wielding the Sword of Truth is kind of amazing.)

But yeah. Vote for our practically perfect nanny!! ☂️

Magical Summer: Round 3 Poll 4

The Heart of Atlantis v The Magic Mirror

Which is the better magical character/tool?

The Heart

Magic Mirror

Remaining time: 4 days 23 hours

The Heart of Atlantis :: Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001)

It's such a cool, weird, inexplicable thing--it may be sentient, given all of the spirits of Atlanteans inside of it, or at least Kida's mom (as it does give Kida's childhood bracelet to her after releasing her), it not only keeps Atlantis alive but the shards it empowers makes them basically immortal, a mere PIECE OF GLASS touched by it is enough to turn a man to crystal in one of Disney's more horrifying and explicit deaths, not to mention Kida's whole transformation with it is an absolutely beautiful sequence both visually and soundtrack-wise. (I suppose crystal Kida would also work here, but they're kind of the same thing)

The Magic Mirror :: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)

An all-knowing being trapped in a magic mirror, enslaved to and forced to answer the questions of whoever possesses him. He's so iconic that Shrek had to parody him AND that Disney itself felt the need to hint a backstory for him in their Disney-Easter-egg film Wish. He's been featured in Disney TV programs, DVD special features, video games, comics, and theme park shows, being voiced by the likes of Hans Conreid (Captain Hook) and Tony Jay (Frollo), among others.

Who is the better magical item/character?

The Magic Wand

Merlin

Remaining time: 4 days 23 hours

Fairy Godmother's Magic Wand :: Cinderella animated films (1950, 2002, 2007)

Used to grant wishes, possibly just until midnight (?)…and yeah, that seems to be the only criteria! It can transform things into other things, create things out of nothing, and -- if one looks at Cinderella III -- even transport people places and turn back time!

Merlin :: The Sword in the Stone (1963)/Parks

Magical Summer: Round 3 Poll 1

Genie v Tinker Bell

Who is the better magical entity?

Genie

Tinker Bell

Remaining time: 4 days 22 hours

Genie :: Aladdin (1992)

You ain't never had a friend like him! Even after he's freed and only has nearly phenomenal, nearly cosmic powers, he still can kick serious butt, even if Genies can't kill. Plus he'll do it with a lot of good humor!

Fun, funny, caring, protective, and brought to life by Robin Williams. What more could you ask for?

Tinker Bell :: Peter Pan (1953)

**Favorite Fairy winner**

Most Emotional One Piece Quote - Tournament!

Rules!

- Quotes must be said by 1 person. Dialogues don't count.

- Quotes should be short enough to fit into one picture, so max one manga page (shorter is fine too). If it's a short quote but on two separate pages (but still like 2 or 3 panels), I'll allow it too. (they could be cut and pasted into one picture for poll purposes). This isn't set in stone; just don't make it too long.

- Obviously, quotes must be from One Piece, manga, anime, or live action. Movie/fillers/novels count, but will probably not be very popular 😅 Games don't count.

- Nothing from past the Egghead arc! I have finished that arc but haven't started on the next one yet, so please keep this in mind. I don't want to be spoiled, especially not on emotional things.

- You can submit multiple quotes, but don't submit the same quote more than once.

- What counts as emotional is up to you!

- If you have any questions, you can always send me an ask!

Read the rules? Submit your quotes here!

I don't have a closing date for this yet. It entirely depends on how many submissions I get and how much time I have to work on this tournament. I also don't know yet how many quotes I'll allow. Ideally, I'm thinking of 32, but if submissions stay behind or are more than I expect, it might be less or more than that.
