Ninja. Sound of Speed Sonic. Or just Sonic, because character limits.

Trust me. You want to do this.

If the Cowboy's name gets presented as "The (Name) Kid", can I vote that when it comes to time to name him, we call him Milkybar?

The correct name is Waco. The Waco Kid.

Yeah, feudal Japan isn't nearly as ancient as the lack of technology (thanks, isolationism!) would have you believe.

E: Update towards the bottom of last page.

Wan't fuedal Japan fought with shitton of firearms? Nobunaga was infamous for revolutionizing rifle tactics in Japan.


Also, this is the Bakumatsu period, Also known as the late Edo period, which means this is far, far away from the feudal Japan, despite the looks of this castle.

Wrestling and the only correct name for this kind of man is Baki

Don't you know who Baki is?

Everbody know what's up.

But I'll let my vote be up to Pure Imagination.









I'm sorry, I'm not good with making sly references, so just to be blunt, my previous suggestion of the Waco kid

For those possibly wondering why the obvious Hulk Hogan analogue doesn't use his signature finishing leg drop as a move, the Max Bomber technique is presumably based off of the Axe Bomber, a lariat that Hogan used as his primary finisher in Japan. A popular rumor is that it was established as his finisher when it legitimately knocked out Japanese legend Antonio Inoki in a match, although it's most likely that he wasn't actually knocked out.


It's Pro-Wrestling. No matter which country you go, there will always be gigantic exaggeration of one's athlecticism due to the nature of the entertainment.

And we wouldn't have it any other way.

Just like the Sci-fi chapter, Western chapter hits all the right notes of the narrative tropes to a t, and in a compelling way.

And that's even before we get to the main gimmick of this chapter.

I suppose shooting somebody in the middle of a duel is what passes for strategy with the Crazy Bunch.

No, this is a way of Western Movies saying "These are the bad guys!".

You see, A duel is like the only unspoken law that is kept sacred in the lawless West. By showing that a bad guy is willing to break that holy law, we are signaled how evil they are, to take advantage of duelists in their most vulnerable state.

Now I remember! Known throughout the West for his arm, fast as lightning… Someone was always out to challenge him to a duel. Eventually, it got so bad that his town was attacked by an entire band of outlaws… He couldn’t do anything, so he put a price on his own head, and wandered the desert, in search of a place to die…

I must admit… When I saw that scene, I was truly impressed with how well the name worked. Bravo, goons.



That's because I exactly knew that name was fitting. It's the only correct choice for this chapter.

My vote goes to Canada.

I like that reference, or the subtle parody, but I like to stick to the more appropriate Kouji, because very good reasons.

Yes, Brando would do nicely. Very Nicely.

Skywalker would have been my #2 choice though

Hey, it isn't the thread's fault the name was so perfect, as it were for the Waco kid. I'm still a bit bitter that no once considered Baki as a legimate name for the Wrestler chapter.

I'm still voting for Brando.

Because Puns are the best names to give your characters.
Especially when both context the Puns portray are equally relevant.
