Thinking about a video essay i rewatched the other day that said that wario is created from this sort of counterculture idea to take everything that defines mario and his games and turn it on its head, both in character design and game design, and that this makes wario inherently Punkrock as a character and concept.
But then the wario land games, his most defining games no matter what Nintendo will tell you, are mostly defined by smooth jazz and soft blues as we hear it the most in wario land 4 and shake it (the games before those were still stuck with chiptune)
Makes me feel like wario would be a total blunt asshole but with a secret softer side that really enjoys some blues
He's like "oooh I'm so gross and fucked up and nasty and provocative and I'm gonna shit on your entire family!!!" And then at home he secretly takes out a blues record and sits down to silently and solemnly bask in the gentle melancholy of it

Fallout: New Vegas Robot Humanization Headcanons!
i got into fnv recently and i am totally normal about the game i swear (/lh). and recently some ideas of humanizing some of the many robots you see in the game hit me like a brick so now I'm just gonna throw those thoughts out into the open here! here we go Yes Man TV visor screen. Constant smile but his eyes (and voice especially) can properly hold his true emotion for him. Has that Wario build (buff chubby). Has power armor as a treat. I think it'd be funny if he was just always wearing a hat, for no reason. He has a different hat every time you look at him.
ED-E Football helmet, adorned with a few antenna. Has a jetpack. Somewhere between 2 to 3 feet tall. I think he deserves a few short robo-tentacles either attached to his back exactly or attached to his jetpack to help him be able to hover. Probably an amputee in one arm. Big big eyes, glowing and full of loyalty Fisto
Tall. Is 6 feet at least. Tempted to give him buff chubby/dad bod status as well, since he's presumably got very strong arms. Wears booty shorts and sandals. Eyes covered by some sort of hat to pit his mysterious vibe to him despite the buff chubby/dad bod build and booty shorts + sandals fit
Victor Medium height, pretty much looks the exact same as what you can see on his Securitron screen. Cowboy fit and all, the kindest, rootiest and tootiest cowboy this side of the Mojave SPOILERS FOR OLD WORLD BLUES DLC UNDER THE CUT
The Think Tank gang Klein, I think he's like. Mentally in his 50's. Would have some gray hairs, probably wears round spectacles. Wears a turtleneck and sweater vest under his lab coat. Has a sky blue tint to his whole form.
0, he's definitely got square glasses. Mentally in his mid 20's, wears a plaid button-up with a clip-on the along with the lab coat. Has a darker blue tint to his form.
Dala, she absolutely, constantly has lab goggles on, especially if in the presence of a Lobotomite. They probably fog up every time she's like. Super close to one. Wears form-fitting clothing, I wanna say, along with the lab coat and all, maybe even having some sort of bears paw talisman just for giggles. Has a purple tint to her form.
Borous, oh buddy. Farmer hat, tank top, overalls, the lab coat is tied around his waist, he has CONTACT LENSES. Since his experiments always kept taking his glasses away from him, if they were capable enough to. Has a camo green tint to his form.
8... Oh 8. Probably wears a scarf or bandana around where his mouth is. I wanna say he'd have vitiligo, caused by his voice getting fried and screwed during the attack 0 describes. Glasses have octagonal frames. Has four bracelets on each arm, made them himself. Wears/has headphones. Has a light green tint to his form. The Sink Personality Modules (at least, the ones I've found so far) Light Switch 01? she seems like she'd have, like... hmm, hard to say. There could be some bioluminescence/glow to her that can toggle off and on on account of being a light switch, and i feel like she'd have a sweater. specifically, like, a sweater dress sort of feel. but that's all i've got for her
Book Chute? British. monocle owning, clean mustache having, dress suit wearing, dirty blond comb-over styling, always has a book in hand 95% of the time, with the 5% of the time he still has a book in his hand, but in the other hand is a whole tube of white-out. he's terribly great.
Blind Diode Jefferson, my man. sitting in a rocking chair, with a prosthetic leg, faded scars and bruises lining his arms, always has a pile of instruments laying by his sides. chipped tooth in his smile, tinted shades, messy hairbun, loose jazz musician clothes, my man's got the jazz fedora- you know the kind of fedora or hat that jazz artists have sometimes? That, he has That. i love him so so so much
Central Intelligence Unit? British, but more bearable, despite the well-ironed butler outfit. no monocle, but i feel like he'd have like. a cravat. and maybe a little top hat. is always doing something whenever you enter the Sink. i think he has something similar to Yes Man's TV visor, but it's more like a computer screen

House of Gucci (dir. Ridley Scott)
-Jere Pilapil-
Everything that’s been written about House of Gucci is true. It’s a mess, but it’s a fun mess, at least, where all the main parties involved seem to have independent goals from one another. It’s like a jazz performance where every instrument is in a different key and the set list has an entirely different song. I can’t say I didn’t have fun with it. It could have been more “bad in a fun way” or “good”. As is, it’s sporadically entertaining enough and that’s it.
I’ll break from my normal format to review individual parts:
1. Obviously, we must start with Jared Leto, who is awful, as always. I’ve been open about my disdain for him in other reviews, and here he brings all his terrible tendencies (wasting the hair/makeup team’s time, oddball acting/accent choices, sticking out like a sore thumb whenever he’s on screen) to a movie that seems to have been too lazy to reign him in? Still, he steals the movie. I would watch the movie he thinks he’s in, which, I think, is an adaptation of a WarioWare game with him as Wario.
2. Lady Gaga seems determined to get an acting Emmy and she is very good in this. Listen, Ridley Scott is 84 fucking years old. You can’t expect him to do everything involved in directing a movie and correct Lady Gaga’s accent and wrangle Jared Leto’s tendencies all at once. Gaga does a solid job portraying Patrizia Reggiani as a bit of a Frankenstein (the doctor) who wakes up a monster who soon gets out of her control. It’s a role that has her exploding in Oscar reel-ready scene after scene, and she does fine.
3. I think Adam Driver took this role as a way of showing some range he hasn’t shown often. Generally, he’s explosively emotional or quietly containing rage. Maybe those Marriage Story memes got to him, I don’t know. But he plays Maurizio Gucci more quietly and subtly than we normally see him, first as an aloof goof and later as a ruthless Michael Corleone-type. Nothing about the movie allows that transition to sink in in an emotionally impactful way, but at least it feels natural in Driver’s hands.
4. Ridley Scott’s direction points to a more staid, dignified kind of biopic. He might have thought he was making the kind of boring but serviceable movie that litters his filmography at this point, aiming for “prestige” but settling for “respectable”. Unfortunately he cast Jared Leto and centered the movie on Lady Gaga. There’s too much theater kid energy to take this too seriously, and it’s too bad the direction is trying to force us to. The color palette shifts between pale blues and oranges, making even the fashion kind of fade into the background. That’s probably the biggest disappointment of this movie.
5. Al Pacino is, like some of the other leads, a bit hammy, but he’s also Al f’n Pacino and at this point too old to really bring the screwyGigli/Jack and Jill/Any Given Sunday/Devil’s Advocate energy that would have played off of Jared Leto’s zaniness well. But he brings what he can to the movie and if he isn’t as great here as he was in The Irishman, well, that’s the movie’s fault.
This was a perfectly fine time, but I really wish someone with a little more instinct for fun than Ridley Scott had directed it. Maybe that would have sent all of its individual components out of orbit and ruined it. But, this isn’t the awards season worthy work he was aiming for. The performances can be fun on occasion, but it feels like a movie about a family-run fashion empire being torn apart by greed and culminating in a murder should have more “zip” to it. 6/10

Thoughts on KFAD2 Round 1
Mariya Takeuchi vs Jack Bros
You guys really gotta do this to Mariya, huh? Just kill her right before the game starts, huh? Heck, I know she’s not gonna survive the loser’s bracket because she happens to be up against Off The Hook. I kinda feel sorry for her, especially considering I actually love City Pop and Future Funk.
Off The Hook vs Dedede
YOU REALLY GOTTA MAKE ME CHOOSE BETWEEN TWO OF MY FAVOURITE FRANCHISES HUH? In all seriousness I’m glad Dedede won because OTH made it so far in the last KFAD tournament that I’m not even mad.
And now, the most underwhelming part of the entire tournament
Metal Ajit Pai Vs Nico Nico
...Was this really a contest? I know Metal Ajit Pai got a buff in this tournament but his expanded list of music only appeals to a small section of the fanbase. Plus I gotta have me some teenage weeb nostalgia.
Adam Levine VS The Jazz Cats
Again, was this even a contest?  I love Maroon 5 but he’s definitely a weaker pick in this game. I consider him weaker than Pitbull and the Aliens. It doesn’t help that he’s clearly a Creator’s Favourite pick. Not only that but the Jazz Cats, while I don’t expect them to win this game, I consider them strong enough picks due to their sheer range in music to at least get to the quarterfinals.
Now we’re really getting to the hard choices, folks
Wario Partners, LLP vs Johnny Bravo
This was the hardest decision I had to make for the entire thing. Do I go for my favourite video game franchise of all time (WarioWare) or do I go for the TV network that made up a large portion of my childhood? Favourite game franchise or childhood nostalgia? I decided on Wario Partners, LLP and THANK GOD THEY WON. I did promise to vote for the loser in the loser’s bracket, so... yeah, sorry, Geno.
Geno vs “Weird Al” Yankovic
I actually voted for Geno, for the reason that I wanted to see more Paper Mario music (since this covers ALL Mario RPGs). I kinda regretted doing so when I realised that Weird Al and Michael Jackson have infinitely better music overall, so THANK GOD THEY WON. I would vote for Geno in the loser’s bracket but... see above.
Quote vs ZUN
I do like me some classic indie games but I’m sorry, ZUN was clearly the better choice. Touhou has fantastic music, there’s plenty of other bullet hell shooters with fantastic music, this has been the only easy choice in this section.
Papyrus vs Law and Disorder
Now THIS was a tough choice, but I went with Papyrus because I actually love puzzle game music and consider it underrated. But I’m not mad that he lost, considering Law and Disorder is great. I WILL however be voting for Paps in the loser’s bracket.
Moderately difficult choices but I would have been happy either way
Men in Black vs Daft Punk ft. Pharrell
Went with Daft Punk but I would have been happy with Men in Black. The use of anything aliens related could have meant we’d get some AHIT rips, since the main character of that game is an alien. But Daft Punk are one of my favourite artists of all time so that’s why I voted for them.
Mr. Krabs vs Dr. Robotnik
Now THIS was a toughie. You could either vote for Spongebob rips and possibly loadsamoney rips, or you could vote for old-school Sonic, Puyo Puyo and YouTube Poops. I decided to vote for Robotnik because I like old-school Sonic and YTP and Puyo Puyo has good music, but I’m also happy Mr. Krabs won.
WARNING: THIS NEXT MATCH MADE ME MAD
Jack & Elmo vs Rhythm Masters
0.1 percent. 0.1 PERCENT! WHY? For the record, Rhythm Masters is my #1 pick. It takes my priority over everything, because I fucking love rhythm games. So yeah, you can imagine I got a bit salty over a 0.1 percent loss against a contestant I didn’t even care that much about. I’m voting for Rhythm Masters all the way through the loser’s bracket and if you have good taste I encourage you to do the same.
Donkey Kong vs Eminem
Dude, it’s Donkey Kong, of course he was gonna win and I’m glad he did lol. No disrespect to Eminem fans of course.
Next up: the match of “meh”
Pitbull and the Aliens vs Solid Snake
Okay, no disrespect for either of them, I enjoy their themes and I enjoyed their rips, but... do we really need a whole takeover about any of them? I don’t think so. So in other words I didn’t really care.
Thanos vs Dr Piccolo
Piccolo too OP, pls nerf. In all seriousness, I am one of those people who did vote for him because of JoJo, though I am looking forward to other rips in his category. Shonen Jump and medical related rips have a lot of coverage. Though I would have been fine if Thanos did win because he’s got a lot of coverage too.
Next up: THANK YOU VOTERS
Missingno. Vs DJ Professor K
THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR LEARNING FROM YOUR MISTAKES FROM LAST TOURNAMENT. DJ Professor K is easily my second choice for this tournament. And he already looks to have a much better chance this time around given that the voters actually took him seriously this time around. What could possibly stop him this ti-
HOBaRT vs Nintendo Power
...I knew Nintendo Power would win this but... it never occurred to me that it would result in essentially Nintendo VS SEGA for the next round, huh? Did I vote wrong here?

The Great Gingerbread Heist - 3
Piranha Plant and R.O.B made their rounds around the kitchen again, marching around in circles. This went on for another minute when the was the faint sound of some silverware being foiled with. Since R.O.B was closer, he went to go inspect it. He glanced down on the ground and saw a Metal Blade. After scanning it, it seemed to be one that was thrown by someone else, other than MegaMan himself.
R.O.B had scanned it for a few seconds, but that was all Joker needed to slip past the laser beams and appear from behind him. Wrapping his legs around R.O.B’s head, he flipped and slammed his head down onto the floor, causing R.O.B’s visual scanners to become cracked. 
As soon as Piranha Plant turned around, Joker grabbed the Metal Blade and threw it, hitting it in the face. Joker then turned back to R.O.B and kicked him across the room, forcing him to shut down.
Joker made his way to the laser beam switch and flicked the power off. This gave an opening for P.P, who lunged at Joker. He was instantly stopped by Bowser Jr deflecting him with his hammer, knocking him out. 
MegaMan and Incineroar followed Bowser Jr through the now laser beam free door. “Joker, that was amazing!"  Bowser Jr proclaimed.
Joker nodded. "Lets save the praises for later. Rock, what’s the next obstacle?" 
MegaMan looked at the map. "Hrm…okay. This door has a security lock on it, so it’ll take me a moment to hack into it.” MegaMan stuck his finger into it and began hacking.
After making sure the two guards wouldn’t cause anymore trouble and sound the alarm in the time span of MegaMan’s hacking, he managed to break through the security firewall and motioned for the team to follow behind him.
As they slowly made their way into the final room where the gingerbread house was located, they noticed there wasn’t a guard in here. Something this valuable with no guard? That was odd, even for the Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom.
That was when they had saw it. A whole gingerbread house the size of Palutena…no, this one was the size of at least two and a half Palutena’s. It was decked out with it’s own candy and sugar covered yard and life sized gingerbread men. Not to mention it was crafted to the point it would make famous artists feel jealous of her craftsmanship.
“Wow…so this is the house, huh? Ness wasn’t kidding when he said it was huge…” Joker muttered to himself. “I almost feel bad for trying to steal it.”
“Eh, she didn’t actually make it. Her Toads did.” Bowser Jr told him.
“Okay, Incineroar, this is where you come in. We’ll have to carry it back to the van.” MegaMan explained, in which Incineroar nodded.
But just before they could make an attempt to go to it, a large figure fell from the ceiling with a thud, prompting the others to jump back. Once the dust settled, they saw Bowser was the last person they had to fight off.
“Hold it! If you think I’m going to… Wait, Jr?!” Bowser shouted.
Bowser Jr had a sweat drop roll down his head. “Hey Dad. Now I know you’re mad…but..”
“Mad doesn’t even begin to cut it!” Bowser shouted. “No one’s going to touch that gingerbread house under Peach’s orders!”
“And what did she promise you in return? A hug and a kiss?” Joker asked with the utmost wittiness.
Bowser’s eye twitched, knowing that he only did this because Peach was short on guards. “S-Shut up! After I take you down, all of you are in deep trouble! Especially you, Jr!” Bowser roared and ran at them.
MegaMan fired a charge shot, but Bowser leapt over it and grabbed MegaMan, slamming him into the ground. He then threw him at Incineroar.
Incineroar took the damage from the flying Blue Bomber, and used it for Revenge. He leaped into the air and used Cross Chop, which was enough to send Bowser flying. 
Bowser Jr pointed his cannon at his Dad. “Please don’t ground me, Dad!” He fired a shot from his cannon, knocking Bowser to the wall.
Bowser rose to his feet and shook himself off. He didn’t notcie Joker right beside him to deliver a powerful kick to the jaw. Joker proceeded to go in on him, landing blow after blow. Bowser grabbed his arm as he was about to land another hit, and threw him away. 
Joker landed on his feet, and saw the flames from Bowser’s fire breath come towards him. He ran out of the line of fire while Bowser Jr and Incineroar rushed in to attack. But they were knocked away as quick as they approached as Bowser spun in his shell.
MegaMan groggily rose to his feet. “This isn’t good…he’s too strong…”
“What do we do now?” Bowser Jr asked.
Joker stood in front of them. “What do we do? We do what we came here to do. We plant our feet. Grit our teeth. And steal that treasure! Who’s with me?!”
Incineroar stood up and let out a fiery roar. MegaMan and Bowser Jr, inspired by the determination, also stood up beside Joker.
Bowser let out a menacing laugh. “HA! You’re really getting back up? You can’t phase me!" 
Joker grinned. "That’s where you’re wrong, King Koopa…” Joker’s whole field of vision began to turn into a deep crimson red and black, and a very familiar jazz song began to play in the background. “The reason we haven’t been able to hurt you…”
Joker’s eyes glowed a triumphant yellow, as the rest of the team clenched their fists. “WAS BECAUSE WE WEREN’T GOING ALL OUT!!” They all shouted in unison.
They all rushed at Bowser and proceeded to attack him from all angles, leaving no way to block their attacks. Bowser wasn’t able to dodge because of the speed they were going. After the final hit had been dealt, Bowser fell to the ground unconscious. Joker landed a distance away and tightened his glove with a grin. “Guess he didn’t see that coming.”
The group walked over to the gingerbread house and looked at Incineroar. Incineraor nodded and picked up the entire house, careful not to drop it. 
“Now, how’re we gonna get it to the van…?” MegaMan pondered.
 Bowser Jr’s eyes lit up as he took his Koopa Toy explosives out. “Boom?”
Joker grinned. “Boom.”
———————-
Blue and Villager sat in the van, waiting for the team to come back. Blue had already fallen asleep.
“Blue? This is Joker. Come in Blue.” Joker called on the earpiece.
Blue jolted awake and yawned. “Oh right. The heist. Well, get back to the van as soon as..” Blue stopped and saw that the four had already returned to the van. “Oh. Well, tie that puppy up on the top and lets get out of here.”
After carefully tying up the house of gingerbread, the crew drove off. Blue looked back at Joker’s team. “How’d everything go?”
“Everything went pretty well. Some unforseen hitches, but above all pretty good.” Joker answered.
“Joker, I have a question. Won’t Peach instantly know that we stole it? I mean, once the guards wake up, they’ll start talking.”
“I handled that part. I gave them a little zap that erases your memory of the night. it was a from on of the other tools in the suitcase Blue gave us” MegaMan reassured. “And I didn’t get Dark Samus, Incineroar. I know she only saw you”
“Besides, I made sure to cover up our tracks at the scene of the crime.” Joker told the group in the van.
—————————
Where Bowser had been knocked out, there was a lone card on his shell. The card had a message in Wario’s handwriting reading:
“The League of Villains Rule!! WAHAHAHA!!”
To be concluded…

Mario Secret Santa Gift!
Dear @maceynrose
Here’s your gift (under the cut) for the @mariosecretsanta2018
Title: Picturesque 
ao3 link here
Pairing: Pauline/Peach
Word Count: 1035
Prompt: Pauline and Princess Peach getting married! 
The chapel was full of lively people from all corners of the Earth. Pauline looked through the pews, recognizing Peach’s toadstool friends and Pauline’s political associates. Everyone looked thrilled to be on the Moon to celebrate Pauline and Peach’s wedding. Mario walked over to where Pauline stood in a doorway. “Nervous?”
Pauline smirked. “How could I not? I’m marrying a princess.”
“Everything will be fine. Now, come along. It’s nearly time for the ceremony to start,” Mario said, guiding Pauline along.
The music began and Pauline took her place at the end of the aisle. Daisy and Luigi walked down first, elbows locked. Next came Birdo and Yoshi. A couple of moon rabbits came bounding down the aisle. Then, Rosalina came floating in, tossing around flower petals. They were from peach blossoms. Donkey Kong walked down holding the rings. Finally, there was Mario escorting the bride.
Princess Peach looked even more beautiful than she did on a normal day. Her pink lips and blue eyes popped with color against the white silk dress and veil. She was wearing Tiara, who had graciously volunteered to be part of the wedding.
When Peach took her place across from Pauline, she grabbed Pauline’s hands. Pauline smiled at her soon-to-be-wife.
Toadsworth became his speech. Pauline found herself distracted by Peach’s glittering eyes. She was so happy, so fulfilled. For so long she wasn’t sure if she’d find someone that fit into her busy mayoral life. Then the princess came along, with her equally busy royal life. It was a struggle, at first, to find time together. But they figured it out eventually. And here they are, getting married.
They kept their vows short and sweet. Both of them had given a fair share of long, tiring speeches before. They agreed to keep them quaint. Pauline and Peach still shed some tears. The ceremony ended with a kiss. Sweet and gentle. The guests erupted in cheers. Wario and Waluigi wailed in the front row.
Pauline has never felt so happy.
-.-.-.-
They had met shortly after Pauline took office as mayor of New Donk City. She of course knew all about the Toadstool Princess. She also knew about her relationship with Mario. Mario had been there the day that met. Mario introduced them to each other. He seemed excited they were finally meeting.
It was a bit awkward. Peach was so beautiful and prim that Pauline didn’t know how to talk to her. Pauline was used to loud city folk, not soft-spoken princesses with mushroom sidekicks.
They quickly formed a bond. The sat with each other at whatever political banquets they were invited to. They were both strong women with strong beliefs. They wanted to lead and make the world a better, safer place.
Pauline realized she was falling in love when they were walking around Tostarena Town, admiring the colorful buildings and the stately pyramids in the distance. Peach was explaining how she was helping the town deal with an ongoing drought. She was so passionate about helping others, Pauline couldn’t help but fall in love.
However, it was Peach that asked Pauline out. Pauline had been unsure if her feelings were mutual. Peach asked her out one night after Pauline had performed at a jazz concert. Everything moved quickly from there.
They were in love. They traveled the world together, helping and leading where they could. It was all so perfect.
Pauline proposed on the beaches of Bubblaine. The fizzy crystal blue water was lapping at their feet. The sun glimmered on the golden accents of the nearby buildings. It was a picturesque proposal. And Peach said yes.
-.-.-.-
Pauline’s band played at their reception. Peach and Pauline danced nearly the whole night. They only stopped for food and speeches. Mario gave the best speech. He talked about how happy he was that the two smartest women in his life were married. It was sweet. Peach cried.
Daisy gave the funniest speech, recounting all the hijinks the two princesses they done growing up together. Donkey Kong gave a very brief speech on how much Pauline had done for the city and how happy he was for the new couple. Luigi practically cried into the microphone for two minutes, which funny in its own way.
They ate the finest meal from the Luncheon Kingdom. Then, the coldest ice cream from Shiveria. It was delicious, but Pauline couldn’t help rushing through the meal so she could get back on the dancefloor with Peach.
After dinner, Pauline serenaded Peach with a song she wrote for the occasion. She had wrote the song early in their relationship, as she explained before performing. Her bandmates helped write the instrumental parts, as well as smooth out some of the clunkier lyrics. There wasn’t a dry eye in the dining hall after the performance.
-.-.-.-
They honeymooned on Lake Lamode. It was incredibly relaxing for the two of them to get away from work. They swam and lounged. They bought cute dresses and hats from the Lochladies, who gave wonderful fashion advice.
“I usually hate leaving New Donk City for more than a day,” Pauline said one night in their hotel room to her wife.
“Why?” Peach asked curiously, tilting her head in exaggeration.
“There’s always so much to do. I’m always so busy. I always have tons of work,” Pauline explained. She stared out the window in the night. The lake still sparkled in the dim light. The window was open and the sounds of swimming Cheep Cheeps filled the room.
Peach smiled softly, melting Pauline’s heart. She questioned, “What’s different about this time?”
Pauline smiled back, grasping Peach’s hand. Peach eagerly squeezed back. “I’d done anything with you. If you wanted to live on the Moon for a year I’d do it.”
Peach laughed and it sent sparks down Pauline’s back. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“I wouldn’t mind living on the Moon for a year,” Peach thought aloud.
Pauline pressed a kiss to Peach’s cheek. Some of her red lipstick stuck to Peach’s fair skin. “If that’s what you really want, darling, I’d do it.”
Peach shook her head. “I don’t really care where we are, as long as I’m with you.”

Thoughts On KFAD2 Round 3 (Winners’ Round 3, Losers’ Round 2)
Losers’
ZUN VS Mariya Takeuchi
It was a tough choice. I went with ZUN but I was totally fine with Mariya winning. Also their interview is oddly pure.
Wario Partners, LLP VS Metal Ajit Pai
As expected, Wario Partners, LLP won. But for real it should not have been that close. Are there really that many mecha fans in the SiIvaGunner fandom?
Nico Nico VS Johnny Bravo
I’m actually surprised with the results. I didn’t expect there to be that many CN fans in the SiIvaGunner fandom. I’m actually happy with this even if it meant one of my mains dropped out this round. Cartoon Network is my childhood after all.
Dedede VS Papyrus
HELL YEAH PAPS WINS! I’m actually excited for next round considering who he’s up against. Seriously, they would get along so well and it makes for a very interesting battle narrative-wise!
Nintendo Power VS Dr Robotnik
Of course I wanted Robotnik to win this round, but someone I’ve known for a while started really supporting him once I showed him the tournament. For this reason I’m even happier he did win.
Solid Snake VS Rhythm Masters
WHY IS A MEME COMPETITION MAKING ME EMOTIONAL? In all seriousness, I am so happy Rhythm Masters won, but remember what I said about the last round? Well, for that reason as much as I want them to win, I won’t mind even if they do lose next round. Because at least one of us will be happy.
Donkey Kong VS Thanos
It’s Donkey Kong. Of course I’m happy he won.
Mr Krabs VS Missingno.
Ever noticed how the ones I want to win certain matches always get sympathetic posts in the Mojo? It’s like the team knows I have good taste lol
Winners’
Jack Bros VS The Jazz Cats
I was indifferent on this one for a while. Until The Jazz Cats uploaded their rip for this round. I hadn’t realised Nyakuza Metro was a potential source for them, and this changed everything about how I thought about them. So I instantly voted for them as soon as the voting went up. And I’m glad they won.
Weird Al Yankovic VS Law and Disorder
Of course L&D won this round. I do like the music selection they have to offer, but I’m a little concerned that some people aren’t voting responsibly, considering how popular both series are for more than just their music.
Daft Punk ft. Pharrell VS Jack and Elmo
It’s Daft Punk. Was there any doubt they’d win? Again, no hard feelings towards Jack and Elmo, they’re just not my thing.
Dr Piccolo VS DJ Professor K
Not gonna lie, I think DJ Professor K might win this tournament. Considering he’s my #2 pick because I love his sources I’m definitely not complaining.

Thoughts on KFAD2 Round 2 (Winners’ Round 2 and Losers’ Round 1)
Winners’
Jack Bros vs Dedede
Damn, that was almost as close as the match that pissed me off! Would’ve liked Dedede to win, but I also like Atlus music (haven’t really gotten into the games outside of Persona but the music is good) so I’m okay with this.
Nico Nico vs The Jazz Cats
Well, it looks like the Jazz Cats are making it to the quarterfinals. Though I would have wanted Nico Nico to win more for reasons I will explain later.
Wario Partners, LLP vs “Weird Al” Yankovic
Normally I would be mad because WarioWare is my favourite video game franchise of all time, but then I saw who the former would be up against in the Losers’ Bracket and I immediately laughed it off because there’s no way they can lose this match lol
ZUN vs Law and Disorder
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand I would have really wanted ZUN to win this round. On the other hand his match in the Losers’ bracket looks... very interesting.
Mr Krabs vs Daft Punk ft. Pharell
Obvious win from Daft Punk, as it should be. They are up there in my Top 5 picks so I’m happy.
Jack and Elmo vs Donkey Kong
I’m actually legit surprised Jack and Elmo won that round. And with ANOTHER close victory no less! At first I was mad at them but then I remembered their win quote against Rhythm Masters and... aww, how can I stay mad at that? I’ll let them have this.
Solid Snake vs Dr Piccolo
Again, Piccolo too OP, pls nerf. And I’m actually not happy he won this round, but not for reasons you might think. I actually voted for him. But that was before I found something out about his opponent that only hardcore KFAD2 fans would have also found out. But I’ll go into that later.
DJ Professor K vs Nintendo Power
YES! I DIDN’T VOTE WRONG! To be fair they had quite possibly the best mashup of the entire tournament and after that I wouldn’t have minded if either won. Isabelle can fucking rap!
Losers’
Mariya Takeuchi vs Off The Hook ft. Paruko
HOLY SHIT MARIYA ACTUALLY WON! I’M VERY PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! But seriously, I love Splatoon music a lot, but I actually would prefer a day about City Pop and Future Funk anytime, and I’m glad a lot of people agree with me!
Metal Ajit Pai vs Adam Levine
Wow, Ajit Pai actually won something. It didn’t really matter either way though, I didn’t really like either option. But OHOHOHOHOHO GOOD LUCK AGAINST WARIO AND WALUIGI YOU ROBOT FUCK (also DAMN that was a sick burn against Adam Levine)
Johnny Bravo vs Geno
I voted for Johnny like I promised. But I never considered the consequences. HE IS UP AGAINST NICO NICO NEXT. I HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN TWO NOSTALGIAS, FUCK WARIO AND WALUIGI, THIS IS THE HARDEST CHOICE I’LL EVER HAVE TO MAKE!
Quote vs Papyrus
And so the fandom immediately flocked to the skeleton, having realised they didn’t consider AU songs to be in Papyrus’ selection. In all seriousness, I am glad Paps won this round. Again, I feel he has potential in his rips.
Dr Robotnik vs Men In Black
Yeah, I felt like Robotnik would win. I can’t actually remember who I voted for, both options were pretty good. So I would have been happy either way. And fittingly, it results in ANOTHER Nintendo vs SEGA match.
Rhythm Masters vs Eminem
WE DID IT! WE HAD THEM BEAT EMINEM BY A LANDSLIDE! But at what cost? AT WHAT COST? Poor Don-chan, after being cheered up by Snake in this post, now has to compete against him. Oh, this is gonna be sad no matter who wins...
Pitbull and the Aliens vs Thanos
Believe it or not, I actually voted for Pitbull and the Aliens here. I was listening to their rips and realised they actually have a lot of potential. Sure, not as much as Thanos, but it would have actually been more interesting than his, that’s for sure. Of course I’m not mad that Thanos won or anything, heck, he had every right to win. I just... realised I misjudged the hispanic rips is all.
Missingno. vs HOBaRT
Ouch. Just... Ouch. HOBaRT got OBLITERATED. I mean Missingno was the better choice but still... Ouch.
