MXTX Side Characters Tournament - submissions end October 24th, 2023 (tenatively)

Due to the lack of submissions on the Baihe Character Tournament, it will likely occur during the Aroace-spec Character Tournament and/or MXTX Side Characters Tournament as a mini-Tournament (submissions will remain open for one more week).

The #aroace spec character tournament is still ongoing with the losers' bracket, but what tournament do you want to see next/the most?

Next Tournament

We're nearing the end of the Danmei Character Tournament, so the next tournament will start within a week of the end (July 26th, 2023). Two tournament submissions are currently open: the Baihe Character Tournament and the Aroace-spec Web Novel Character Tournament.

[Current Submissions for both under the cut - CW for vague talks about sex]

Aroace Spectrum Character Tournament

(15 submissions)

Jiang Cheng from The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation

3 Submissions

Submission 1: romantic and sex indifferent aroace - "I love that guy, he’s the most aroace guy I’ve ever met. and his outfit is literally the ace flag plus he’s like wearing a ring that looks a lot like wearing a ring that looks a lot like the ace ring. and the fact that he has no canon love interest and is never shown to want a romantic or sexual relationship. he gives me very “romance is something other people do, I just don’t care for it, I got other things to do” you get me??"

Submission 2: Aroace - "Despite people trying to convince him to get married/get an heir, in 13 years he never finds someone. His list of bride qualities is absurd to the point of "no one like this exists so I'll never have to get married". Is grossed out by displays of sexual attraction. Purple"

Submission 3: Aroace - "No spouse. Wears ace colors. Case closed."

Xie Lian from Heaven Official's Blessing

2 Submissions

Submission: Lesbian Asexual - "She just has the vibe. Trust me, I'm ace"

Feng Xin from Heaven Official's Blessing

Submission: Sex Averse Asexual and Aromantic - "He had a sexual relationship with one (1) woman and had such a bad time he developed a fear of women in general. Also, he's a very good archer, so he has to be an aroace lolgetit?"

Submission: Sex Favorable Asexual - "He has the Vibes"

Liu Qingge from Scum Villain's Self-Saving System

2 Submissions

Submission 2: Aroace - "The idea of him being asexual is presented right there on the page and you can't take that away from me. Yes I think he is in love with sqq yes I also think he is aroace. He can be both!"

Wenren È from Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know

Submission: Asexual - "I haven't actually read this book yet but I've heard it's ace as hell and I wanted to make sure he was submitted"
