Who will you vote for in the 5th anniversary poll?

Since the 5th anniversary is coming up, that means most likely the next leader poll is coming. As always, we'll be choosing new gacha leaders from the last 4 expansions, and since the mini expansion just came out we now have the full pool of candidates for this year's poll. Anyone got any hopes, any particular leaders they want to see? To help, I've listed every single (viable) option that could appear on the poll, and included Japanese VAs since that's often a deciding factor.

I've only bothered listing cards that have a fraction of a chance of getting into the poll. Which means, no bronze or silver, no spells or amulets, no repeats of existing leaders (including Rivayle and Vellsar story leaders who will be released in some other way) and no retrains of existing leaders (Albert, Filene, etc). I'm genuinely unsure if any of the GBF characters that aren't already leaders could possibly be entered to the poll, but I thought I'd include them anyway.

Cards are listed in order of expansion, then rarity, then cost, then just in the order listed on the Portal. VA wiki articles linked in JP only when no EN article is available. Please blame google translate for any errors in their names!

[Manga/Anime] Rurouni Kenshin: How a popular manga publisher continues to profit from the works of predators

Marked heavy as this will tackle several mangaka that have been found guilty of violating laws against child sexual exploitation and how this affected their creations. (Spoilers: >!Are you making the company lots of money? Are there no witnesses? Congratulations! You can stay!!<)

You know how there are former (or current) Harry Potter fans who are struggling with how to deal with JK Rowling being a terrible person? Circa-2000s anime fans may feel the same way about Rurouni Kenshin and its creator.

Also featuring the titles Toriko and Act-Age.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quick Definitions

Mangaka - The lead creator of a manga, and usually serves as both the script writer and the lead artist. Traditionally, a mangaka might work with a lot of assistants in the same office, who help them with tasks such as cleaning up artwork, inking, shading, etc. There have been instances when former assistants have gone on to create popular manga themselves.

Shounen - One of the many genres of manga, targeting an audience of young boys to teens. Other mainstream manga genres would follow the same suit of being named after their target audience, like shoujo (young girls to teens), josei (adult women), and seinen (adult men).

Weekly Shounen Jump - A popular manga magazine that publishes weekly chapters of several shounen titles. This has been the launchpad for several popular series turned anime, including Dragonball, Rurouni Kenshin, BLEACH, Naruto, One Piece, Hunter x Hunter and My Hero Academia. If it's a widely popular anime that has a lot of superpowered teenage boys screaming at each other as they fight in a tournament, it was probably adapted from a WSJ title. (u/Torque-A has a write-up that goes more in-depth about Shounen Jump here.)

Shueisha - A massive Japanese company that's popular for publishing several manga magazines, including Jump. It co-owns Viz Media, a large American manga publisher and anime distributor, with fellow magazine publishing giant Shogakukan. This acquisition has allowed them to release manga chapters almost simultaneously for Japanese and English-reading audiences.

^((note: Japanese names in this write-up are written in a first name, last name format))

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies ๐Ÿ˜‚

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
