fictional_fansFourth group of Round 1! Vote below. Okay, I know I've been saying I'll close posts after 24 hours, but post 1 is still getting a trickle of votes, so I guess I will keep them all open until tomorrow evening. Last round had our first real nailbiter: SPN vs MDZS, and it's still anyone's game there! I will be extremely tempted to time the poll closing so my fave wins, but maybe by then it won't be that close anymore.
The criteria you should use for voting is which fandom in each pair you would rather see advance. If you have particularly good and/or bad reasoning as to why, you should share it in the comments!

They're chosen to be the very best at what they do, and they're going to break new ground doing it.
Beautiful seaside towns, sinister mines, intense found family, a fight to defeat a tyrannical overlord, what more can you ask in a fandom?
A unique genius creates a whole new career for himself in a Victorianesque empire.
Use themed powers derived from the Gods to have adventures, find your siblings, and fulfill your mission.
Christmas can't be over until somebody brings the party a tale of adventure to share.
"If it is death you want, it is death you shall have"
A community is haunted by old secrets and older lies.
Just because it's formulaic doesn't mean it's not good!

Date: 2022-07-17 01:40 pm (UTC)Challenge accepted! :P
Okay but also its been forever, BUT: the request does not specify that Lord and Lady have been to be together, so that fixes the no polyamory or cheating; the Knight is having one-night stands and not entering relationships, so it's not on that side either. If the head grows back/grows another body from the head, you don't have MCD (or MCR, for that matters. Or MCU), and also that would also fix the no-cheating and no-polyamory request with two pairings required. You can cut his head off multiple times and create multiple Knights, and this Knight does not have to be different from any other Knight! Perfect solution!
And as for the hunting without animal harm, we must be very quiet, we're hunting for truffles.

My full knowledge of Haikyuu is that it's a sports anime about baseball and that the Japanese voice actor for Bakugou in My Hero Academia voices a character in it. I had to go with Law and Order despite disliking Law and Order.

Date: 2022-07-17 03:42 pm (UTC)I was going to vote for Minecraft over SU for the sole reason of one specific take I've seen in the SU fandom that bothers me so much. Not even an element of the SU canon! Or knowing anything about Minecraft other than the most basic basicness! Just, you know, that image of lightning striking water and the caption fuck these five fish in particular.
