Giraffe Girumble - Winner's Semifinals A

Propaganda below (May contain spoilers!)

Kaku propaganda:

He's a black ops government assassin who can transform into a giraffe or a human-giraffe hybrid that is really angular for some reason. He fights using two swords and wind blades shot from his feet, but giraffes have four feet, so he can shoot wind blades from all four limbs. He can also become a cube. And suck in his neck to fire his head forward like a cannon, his nose like a square-shaped cannonball. Or suck in his neck to make his legs longer, like a pasta machine.

Boy can turn into both a straight-up giraffe and a swordfighting giraffe-man hybrid. He's also got pretty giraffe eyelashes even in his human form.

Kaku turns into a giraffe-human by being ordered to eat a devil fruit by his boss, and the first thing this man does is hop on the giraffe propaganda train, no hesitation. His collegues are wolfs and leopards. Does Kaku mope about being a giraffe? No! He literally holds a whole speech explaining why giraffes are both dope, cool and the most lethal animal on the savanna. Then proceeds to unleash the limitless destructive power of the giraffe. Kaku is the no. 1 giraffe character, hands down, no competition, I will die on this hill, give me 1000 dollars.

Kirin/ The Giraffe Propaganda:

Voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda, he oversees the lesbian drama student tournament arc that makes up the plot of the anime.

Welcome...TO THE GIRAFFE GIRUMBLE!

Giraffes! Nature's giraffes.

There are many giraffes, and thus there are many stories about giraffes. But who is the greatest giraffe of them all!? Who stands atop the tower* to claim the title of ultimate giraffe!?

*tower: a group of giraffes

Criteria for nomination:

Must either be a giraffe, transform into a giraffe, or be connected with giraffes in a sense where they are basically a giraffe within the context of their world.

Robot/Artificial giraffes are acceptable.

People dressed as giraffes are on thin ice.

No giraffe ocs.

Only 2 giraffes per franchise.

No bigoted giraffes or bigotry-related giraffes.

No submission spam.

In addition, 4 giraffes have autoqualified...BUT I'm not saying who they are. This is entirely in case you want to submit propaganda. Don't worry. I'll be open about who they are later.

Other than that, if there are any questions, drop an ask! Without further ado, let's the nominations commence! (They’re open until the 14th)

Lastly, some tagging for boosting. @platonic-pals-punchout @princess-polls @elementspecificcharatourney @fictional-actors-bracket @fictionaldogcompetition @tournament-announcer @polls-showdowns

I'm a Giraffe guy Propaganda:

They did say they were a giraffe, soooooooo

From the vine in which a skiier in a giraffe suit skis past the camera and shouts "I'm a giraffe!" Clearly a giraffe

Imagine if you will, a ski trip to Colorado with friends. You stop to take a photo to remember the occasion. Your friend tells you say to Colorado and before you can speak, a man in a giraffe onesie on skis zips by yelling three words. “I’m a giraffe!” And disappears without a trace. I’m Rod Serling, and welcome to the Twilight Zone.

Dangiraffe Propaganda:

In the episode "The Beak" Candace takes on the identity of a supervillain she calls "The Dangiraffe" in order to bust her brothers who have decided to become superheros in a bird-themed superhero suit. She doesn't actually have any powers but dresses up like a giraffe, I guess because of her famously long neck.

GG propaganda:

Is the best. Great and squeaky and silly and beautiful.

She's silly! And also a robot giraffe. And she plays piano sometime! Multitalented!

Giraffe Girumble - Giresults!

Sorry for the long delay. A mix of business, sorting out living situation, and generally being tired. But after so long (long enough that you definitely already know the results), here are the final standings for the Giraffe Girumble!

Kirin from Revue Starlight beat the I'm a Giraffe Guy to take 3rd, Kaku from One Piece got 2nd, and in 1st place, we have...giraffes!?

But all of these were giraffes! That makes no sense!

...So I thought. But I did a great deal of giraffe-based soul searching (actually ignore the above explanation this is definitely what happened), and I realized...that's right. Giraffes won.

It doesn't matter who was in this tournament. There were regular giraffes, real giraffes, half-giraffes (giralfs, if you would), but all were based off of the same template. At its core, it makes sense that the being that symbolized the base commonality of all of them would be best.

...because maybe...the best giraffe...is every giraffe.

...PSYCH IT'S THE TAX GIRAFFE BABYYYY HE WAS HERE THE ENTIRE TIME ONLY 274 DAYS UNTIL TAX DAY 2025

(Anyways, I'll leave one more week for submissions for the Cutting Room Throwdown)

And suck in his neck to fire his head forward like a cannon, his nose like a square-shaped cannonball. Or suck in his neck to make his legs longer, like a pasta machine.

A professional assassin and government agent, ate the fruit that gave him the ability to turn into a giraffe. Due to Kaku's personal anatomical peculiarity, he turns into a square giraffe (technically, a parallelepiped) a good swordsman who quickly learned to use the giraffe form for his fighting style. However, because he only became a giraffe a few hours ago, he is still not very good at it, which makes him miss funny. in his next appearance, he is a complete professional at transformations. AND AFTER HIS TEAM LOST TO THE MAIN CHARACTER'S TEAM, HE AND HIS PARTNERS WORKED AT A TRAMPOLINE RIDE AND HE RODE CHILDREN ON HIS NECK TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE BOSS'S TREATMENT.

Kaku turns into a giraffe-human by being ordered to eat a devil fruit by his boss, and the first thing this man does is hop on the giraffe propaganda train, no hesitation. His collegues are wolfs and leopards. Does Kaku mope about being a giraffe? No! He literally holds a whole speech explaining why giraffes are both dope, cool and the most lethal animal on the savanna. Then proceeds to unleash the limitless destructive power of the giraffe. Kaku is the no. 1 giraffe character, hands down, no competition, I will die on this hill, give me 1000 dollars.

Miyoshi Kazunari propaganda:

I don’t know how to explain this in a cohesive way that doesn’t sound like I’m insane but this silly little actor visual novel has a canon furry event. All of the characters have canon fursonas. Okay, let me explain. Every year, the April fool’s event involves an AU, just for fun. Other years have included a host club, magic school, time travel, a fighting game, etc. This one was an AU where all the characters were animals, and it was by far the most extensive, given that it had its own full-blown event as opposed to a single card and side story like in the past. I couldn’t tell you if Kazunari counts given the submission rules and A3!’s circumstances, but it would be cool if he got in as A3! is generally a smaller franchise.
