Votes for Goofy

 * 1) While Donald's the best when it comes to the cartoons, his voice just drives me bonkers in Japanese. He's useless in KH for anything but healing, and the characters' reactions to Goofy's "death" as Vim and Vigor plays is just epic. Goofy's also good for comic relief, and his Limit Breaks are superior to firecrackers and fireworks. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  23:50, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) What's with the lack of votes for Goofy? Donald dies every 2 seconds in battle.-- Random! to a point!  23:57, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) You've got my vote Goofy! You are so goofy!
 * 4) I can has Goofy vote? Olos --Ag (Silver) 107.8682 undefined 00:01, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Remember that James Bond film, You Only Live Twice? Goofy is living proof of that title. Plus his shields can make Donald's staffs into golf clubs. maggosh 01:58, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Goofy makes a lot of sense despite his goofiness... which is something we least expect but I look up to him for that. Donald, on the other hand is quick-tempered and loses his MP a lot. Plus, Goofy Bash, Goofy Tornado in REC = win. 04:12, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) I would just rather fight along side and travel with him in my party. I focus on speed and strength ^^ so it would be good to have a defender around.Oh,how the sea calls 06:39, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) Knocksmash is win. 09:30, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) Goofy is awesome. Knocksmash is awesome. And when it looked like Goofy died! 11:04, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) Two words. Talk Bubbles.17:34, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) While neither are my favorite, at least Goofy isn't all that annoying and has some common sense (ironically enough) --ShadowsTwilight 19:35, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) I like the concept of goofy better. I've always been more of berserker and goofy helps that more than donald.--Memorized

Votes for Donald

 * 1) In all reality, I don't really like either of them. Donald is the one I always keep in my party to heal me, so he recieves my vote.
 * 2) Before the early votes were cleared, I was disgusted at the lack of votes for Donald. Goofy has two uses: close range Limits in the already too easy Kingdom Hearts II, and a source of MP to mooch off of. Donald not only can cast third-tier spells, but also has the actual intention of fighting. Goofy avoids all combat possible; he fights with a shield, for crying out loud. Plus when Donald heals you, he does not use up your expensive restorative items. What does Goofy think Sora is, made of gil munny? -- 23:28, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Wisdom defeats Strenght23:32, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Donald dies far too much... and his MP bar always depletes way too fast, but his healing abilities and provision of Wisdom Form more than make up for it.
 * 5) No matter how useless he is in KH2FM, he's my second favorite party member overall (after Riku) and he's a great source of comic relief, and I love his magic.
 * 6) I completely agree with DTN. He can be useless at times, but at least he saves me from wasting cure, so I can spend more time with other magic. 13:57, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Keyblade Graveyard
Okay, this battle is sorta giving me a twisted idea of Donald and Goofy actually using their weapons on each other. o.O XD 01:04, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Once it hits six days, go nuts." It says six days now, so why the vote removal, eh? - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  01:16, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

I should have been more clear. It's at 6 days, 22 hours, blah blah blah. Once it's down to 6 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds, go nuts.
 * KKD is a lot little obssessive over the time we open battles... he wants it to be open on Sunday... I see no problem really... to open it now. But we are a family here, so we respect each other.01:21, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

The battles always opened on sunday, I'm just trying to keep consistency.
 * Goofy is win. I don't think Donald can stand up in this one.-- Random! to a point!  20:16, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Final Form

 * 1)  Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  02:25, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) it's nice and white not like the stain.User:ZACH/Sig
 * 3) Played Kingdom Hearts II, played Final Mix, I must say that this one trumps everything else in terms of badassity, hands down. 05:37, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Just having pure power, wielding Fenrir and Fatal Crest is an awesome combo and you can glide! 08:52, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Final Form is more powerful and it looks better, so I'm voting for this one. - Lev  L  09:06, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) It's just simply amazing. --Nitrous X 14:00, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Max glide + two Keyblades + floating above (NOT walking on) the ground = epic win.-- Xion 4  ever  21:21, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) It's more useful and you can actually level it up.--Memorized
 * 9) You can control it, you can heal, you can revert from it, you can wield keyblades in it, and overall it won't get you killed--ShadowsTwilight
 * 10) Let me put it this way; you can use Final Form willingly. maggosh 23:08, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Its attacks are ten times more epic looking, and I prefer Light to Darkness, and Glide rocks.
 * 12) My suggestion gets my vote!
 * 13) Final Form makes life complete...-- Random! to a point!  14:45, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 14) As much as I enjoy watching Sora hang upside down from walls using his feet, Final Form gets my vote. 10:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * 15) I have this one in action figure form. 'Nuff said.  02:32, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Anti Form

 * 1) Darkness rules, it is cool and if you train with it really hard it can become very useful02:27, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Look at my talk bubble. All black.  All seeping with darkness.  I am the darkness.
 * 3) Because Kingdom Hearts II was was too easy, at least the penalty form was some form of an attempt at creating a punishment for using the Drive Forms too often. Using Final Form just takes the fun out of things, often. -- 03:18, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) This was a really hard decision. I love both forms, and of course, Final Form has really deep meaning (Sora's bond with Roxas and all that shiz), but Anti Form shows that Sora's not perfect. He still has lingering darkness, and who knows: maybe Anti Form was a nudge for things to come...
 * 5) Anti Form is beautiful, and its variations are beautiful. Final Form is just Sora pimped out in white, which is overdone. (Yes, I know that "Dark X" is overdone, too. So what, I like it). Glorious  CHAOS!  15:59, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Interesting concept of Sora manipulating darkness in this way. Plus, I like the concept of Sora, the great Keyblade hero, beating Heartless with his bare hands.16:04, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Looks cooler. --00:54, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Keyblade Graveyard
Yay!! They picked mine! ^_^
 * Oh speaking of which - I'd like to see the noms for this session. 00:50, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Notice: DON'T FORGET TO NOMINATE STUFF! It appears that people are only voting in the arena proper, and not nominating the battles they want to see. Our nominations page is diminishing each round.
 * I had an idea for a nom, but it has to wait because the category is currently offlimits. :(

Totally one-sided. -Azul81677 23:30, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I have some ideas lined up, so there'll be competition next time.23:57, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

@Azul : Popularity contests can end up being one-sided...

@Lapis : Alriiiight, spill. ^_^ 01:06, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Azul: I think all but one of these matches have been totally one-sided. Ah, well what can you expect with something like Kingdom Hearts? On a completely different topic, Kingdom Hearts II totally needed Room Core Form. -- 01:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've participated in one-sided matches (even matches which I lost, ultimately), but then again... I'm kinda aware that this is bound to happen. Not only because there are some things which, when compared, there's a world of difference in the feedback, but also because... do we have that many elements anyway ? 01:18, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Next week's battle proves to be evenly matched (Donald vs. Goofy, in case you were wondering). Either way, it's all in good fun, so who cares about one-sidedness?

Your obssesion over the Room Core is just weird, DTN. Why don't you nominate it in a ONE ON ONE battle? I doubt someone other than you will vote of it.

Well, the series is expanding so hopefully there won't be as many fights like this, but it'll be hard with the limited amout of "fan favorite" characters. I can see why fights would be one-sided, but this fight reminds me of the current MMII fight between Kain and some Mystic Quest character. Clear winner, what's the point, ya know? But it's not all that srs ;} -Azul 81677  18:12, August 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Azul: Aside from when BH votes for Mystic Quest. Also, Drake's Team Rocket line? Hilarious.
 * Reedemer: One day, Room Core is going to be in a battle in the Mirage Arena, and it will be so amazing that the arena will explode with a burst of Room Core-esque colors. Thus, pipe down. -- 22:32, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
