From Volume 74 - Chapter 742 / Season 11 Episode 676. After Usopp refused to let himself abandon the naive Tontottas, he faces off against Trebol, one of Doflamingo's most trusted members. Despite his sniping skills, Usopp is no match for the snot-nosed pirate's sharpshooting. Operation SOP is truly a failure. That is, unless a miracle happens.

Hey! I like your art and I wanted to ask you if you can do a cream unicorn and dark choco fankid?
Well I’m glad you like it, and here’s Violet Sugar Cookie
So to be perfectly honest…I didn’t actually have a food in mind when I designed her. The thing that I based her on was the Solid Violet Sugar Crystal ingredient from Ovenbreak, since it was a liked gift for Dark Choco, and it was about dreams, and I know Cream Unicorn Cookie has some association with dreams, so I just named her Violet Sugar. I’m not sure about the name, since it isn’t really similar to Dark Choco or Cream Unicorn, but I can’t really think of anything else. There’s not that many purple desserts that aren’t just like, blueberry flavored or something similar, and I wanted her name to start with Violet. If anyone has something better, feel free to suggest
Solid Violet Sugar Crystal:
Her colors were also inspired by Cream Unicorn’s Nebula Butterfly costume in Ovenbreak, but I think her design was mostly Dark Choco, with a few Cream Unicorn elements. I based her sword off of Dark Choco’s Young Prince sword, because of the whole dream/memory thing, and it sort of being like a reminder of his past. The gem in her sword is probably a Solid Violet Sugar Crystal. Oh and another thing, her hair is supposed to be in a braid, you just can’t really see it. But overall, I think I like her design quite a bit
So on to Violet Sugar, so basically my thought process with her was “warrior + dreams = dream warrior?” And so yeah, basically she’s a guardian of dreams that fights against nightmares (I assume in my head that nightmares are like actual creatures she fights in the dream world). She primarily focuses on the dreams/nightmares of younger Cookies, as she feels they deserve to have happy dreams, though she does occasionally go into adults’ dreams. I think she like, physically shows up in their dreams to fight off the nightmares. I’m not sure how she gets to the world of dreams, whether it’s just through sleeping or she like, just physically goes there, like she disappears from the waking world and goes into the sleeping one.
I have kind of a funny idea for the second one, where it’s just like, there’s some family drama going on and she’s just like “nope not doing this, I’mma go fight nightmares” and just disappears like that peace fade meme before anyone can stop her
Anyways, so she’s been going to the world of dreams ever since she was young, and even back then, she wanted to help people stop having nightmares. So that she’d seem a better “guardian of dreams” and look more imposing and cool, she created a persona for herself that she calls the Violet Knight, depicted in the sketch. To be honest, that sketch was just a rough draft, I have no idea how to draw a Cookie in full body armor. I just drew that to show it is full body armor. Anyways so that’s what the Violet Knight looks sort of like, and what they’ve always looked like, since this is the dream world and she can look however she wants. In current day she uses the persona when she doesn’t want her identity to be known
Considering we now know Dark Cacao to have a lot of nightmares, perhaps at some point she and her grandfather have met, though only under the disguise of the Violet Knight
But yeah I think that’s about it for her. I realize I don’t really have anything concerning her and her parents. I think I mostly just took ideas from the two and made them into a Cookie. But oh well. Hope you like her regardless!
Listing here some of the anime that I don’t think should enter the competition. If you disagree with any of these, you may try to appeal and I’ll reconsider it.
Edit: This post will no longer be updated. Check this post instead for the tentative list of submissions.
Kekkai Sensen
This anime’s ending song literally set a trend of people making their own versions of it featuring characters from other anime. (You can literally search on YouTube “Anime Title” x Kekkai Sensen Ed to get various results). It was also pretty hyped-up back when it was airing, and I don’t think it’s been forgotten, either.
Noragami
The fandom’s been a bit quiet since season 3 still isn’t released. But I do remember s1 and s2 being very popular. And the s2 opening was even once featured by the official MyAnimeList Facebook page
Violet Evergarden
I haven’t watched this, so I can’t decide for sure. But my sister did bug me many times to watch it back when it aired. And upon checking MAL, there isn’t much of a gap between its rank and popularity
Ranked #49 in popularity… I don’t think that’s underrated
And below are the anime I might remove because of insufficient/ unconvincing propaganda:
Delicious Party Precure [Removed]
Gatchaman Crowds
Gurazeni
Hakumei and Mikochi
Happy Sugar Life (to submitter: you’re even saying it’s not good, so why are you still submitting it hsajhdkhjsdkjs. and oh, from your propaganda, it seems kinda… questionable) [Appeal accepted. For some reason, submitter couldn't edit their entry directly, so they just contacted me here.]
Joshiraku
Karneval
Kyousou Giga
Meganebu
Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun
Plastic Memories
Servamp
Vatican Miracle Examiner
I actually don’t wanna remove some of the 13 shows above coz they do seem interesting, so if you submitted any of them, you may edit your propaganda in the GForm (I’ve enabled editing on the form). Or, if you’re not a submitter, you may submit it again with your own propaganda.
Other tournament blogs may like to have as many submissions as possible, but since this tournament, as I said, is gonna be a round-robin, I prefer to have less entries but with quality propagandas. Round-robin takes a lot of time, after all. Actually, I think I might even have to make this a mix of round robin + elimination if I get even more submissions.
BPD culture is feeling like violets are growing from your knees, like clovers are sprouting in your lungs, like dandelions are blooming around your nails. i want to be pretty, and nice, and smart and kind and funny and thoughtful and worthwhile and enough! but i’m just a weed!
