The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places to the Transpanda OC Tournament, drawn by the wonderful and amazing @ashenberry
In 1st place, we have both Maya St. Fleur, the ex-demolition psychic therapist who'll blow your mind, and Jilly Bean, the sweet and sour totally emotionless villain reformer.
In 2nd place, we have Pan Kokoro, the spunky one-off episode alter of the body swapping protag Pan Yu.
And in 3rd place, we have Yuni Yoshinaga (and Yuki Fujisaki), the caring delinquent that accidentally get an identity swap/transition speedrun.
The original results
Thank you so much to absolutely everyone who voted in our poll! You all helped a lot in making us address all the characters that worked and who didn't quite just yet. This has been a great exercise to show off a hint of our WIP series's and our creative ability with character design!
Thank you for voting, and thank you for existing!
Photo ID under the cut:
(PHOTO ID: Confetti rains down from the sky.
On a 1st place podium, Jilly Bean has red and yellow skin, and long pink hair. She's wearing a dark, gothic lolita dress and sunhat. She shows little emotion holding one handle of a gold 1st place trophy, the other handle being held by a purple psychic force.
Left to Jilly on the same podium is Maya St. Fleur, who is animated with closed eyes. A purple energy is around her hand. Maya has a safety helmet on that resembles a bomb, and her fire-like red orange hair peeks out from the fuse and around her neck. She wears a green shirt, pants, boots, and has triangular bone growths on her arms. Maya has dark skin and an orange inner mouth.
Left of Maya is Pan Kokoro, on a shorter 2nd place podium. She is wearing a white sleeveless shirt, purple athletic pants, black and white sneakers, and has a red and white jacket tied around her waist. The jacket's large sleeves have been tucked in and tied like a white and red striped tail. She is posing energetically with her silver 2nd place trophy, but water is spilling out onto her head, shocking her. Her white short hair stays the same, but the red hair buns are turning black from the water. An exclamation point is above her.
To the right of Jilly, on the 3rd place platform is Yuni Yoshinaga. Yuni is currently a pink, amorphous ghost being. She is wearing her jacket and gloves. She's smiling cockily and showing off how only one eye has a pupil (a pink pupil with a heart in it), one hand on her chin, and she poses with her bronze 3rd place trophy.
Underneath Yuni is Yuki Fujisaki, whose head is cracked like an egg to let Yuni's form out. Yuki is sitting on her butt, leaning back a little with both hands on the podium. She is looking up happily at Yuni, and showing off her single pupiled eye (a blue pupil with a heart in it). Yuki wears a purple jacket, yellow shirt and skirt-like shorts, blue socks, and purple shoes. On her medium length purple hair, Yuki wears two hairclips, one pink one blue. She is wearing a pink biker glove on one hand, but the other isn't seen. END ID.)

Brief introduction to "Thank You For Existing"
CHARACTER BIOS BELOW
Yuni Yoshinaga
“My name is Yuni Yoshinaga, and I don’t really exist.”
Born a timid, sweet, and quiet boy, Yuni was quickly mistreated for his rare heart-shaped pupils. To avoid abuse, he donned the personality mask of “The Demon Delinquent”. Years later, a major accident occurred. Yuni was medically mistaken for Mizuki Fujisaki, a well-liked girl with the same eye condition. Feeling finally free, Yuni dubbed “his” true self as “The Girly Force” to those aware while stepping into the role. Yet Yuni couldn’t shake off the “Demon Delinquent” personality mask. Why? He doesn’t actually exist…right? Yuni is the main character of TYFE.
Primary Inspiration: Masashi Rando from Pretty Face (And Chihiro Fujisaki from DR)

Pan Kokoro
“I’m Non-Canon and I’m proud!”
Kokoro is your typical filler character; Never appeared in a single chapter of her source, and only a single episode of the show adaptation. The problem therein lies that the peppy girl exists inside the main character’s mind, Pan Yu. Brought to the front just a couple of weeks before the series’s canonical ending, Yu’s wedding, Kokoro is determined to find the space where she fits in best! Can she assert her existence with so many people insisting she’s just a delusional Yu, including Yu’s fiance Bow Botella? Whatever the case is, she’s surprisingly comfortable in both forms she has. Pan Kokoro is the main character of TYFE part 4: Filler Turf.
Primary Inspiration: “The Girl” from the anime of Ranma ½

Maya St. Fleur
“I’m Maya St. Fleur, and I’m gonna blow your mind!”
An ex-demolition woman turned psychic therapist (and a zombie descendant), Maya is employed by a recap therapy organization. Despite this, she’s actually never faced her past grief of losing several close people, choosing to forget instead. Trouble strikes when she needs to attend her own recap therapy, due to an actual total memory loss accident caused by Yuni. With slightly different circumstances, will Maya finally build on her past events? Or simply continue to demolish what shaped her...? Maya is the main character of TYFE Part 1: That’s Life.
Primary Inspiration: Razputin Aquato from Psychonauts.

Jilly Bean
“I do not feel emotions. I hope that this does not cause you distress of any kind.”
Appearing quite emotionless at first glance, Jilly Bean is actually a severely self destructive individual focused on others first. Much of this stems from her assuming she fakes all of her emotions, when in reality she’s an undiagnosed system with one low emotion alter. She has a tendency of intervening with stories she feels demonizes someone unfairly. This need to be someone else’s anchor has led her into much trouble; the lemon coloring on her body is actually scar tissue for example. With the loss of one reformed villain turned friend, Shirley A. Gonna, Jilly’s low emotion alter gets front stuck, worsening her mindset. She is a recurring character in TYFE.
Primary Inspiration: Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece
HERE IT IS, THE FINALS, THE FINALE, THE END, THE MOST POPULAR CHARACTERS OF TYFE, AND I KIND OF DON'T KNOW HOW THIS IS GONNA PLAY OUT

VOTE FOR WHO YOU THINK IS THE BEST, BUT MORE IMPORTANT VOTE IF YOU WANT THEM HOLDING A COOL LITTLE TROPHY
Well. That's the way the cookie crumbles folks!!! We're gonna try to scrounge together something for our winners, cause what a competition it has been!

There's something very funny about Kokoro and Yuni and Maya tying like that and walking up to the finals while Jilly Bean did everything pretty simply and now has to watch 3 separate people enter the ring against her basically

Hey everyone, this is just putting this out there that I worry if maybe the Yuni/Kokoro vs. Maya poll wasn't the best structured one. Like, yes, plurality and all that, but it's still putting 2 characters vs. 1. And, whilst adding more to a character can be nice, they're still functionally adhering to their specific character themes/motives, etc.
And this is only really happening because Maya lost by ONE vote. Which makes us worry we put her in an impossible situation where she SHOULD be the most popular character individually but still lost.
So, and only if you guys are cool with it, here's our proposition:
A redo but each character gets their own separate vote. If Yuni OR Kokoro win, they both go forward. If Maya wins, well, she goes forward. (Or, like, you know, at tie all go.)
Would you be cool redoing that last poll, where each character gets a vote option?
Yeah, I think this is more fair
Yeah, but I don't mind either way
No, I think the past poll was fair enough
No, I don't care either way
Voting ended onJun 12, 2023
Again, we just want things to be as fair as possible in this tournament. And over the course of that last one we felt something wasn't really *fair*, you know? But, ultimately up to you guys.

MAYA (Part 2)
"Yuni, is this just what you deal with from the day to day?"
Something... wasn't right. Maya had only gone to recap therapy cause her memories accidentally go plucked out. She got them back, she was herself, everything should be fine. But the... "she" she was during that recap keeps popping up when the others go through their own recap stories. Does changing a few things in this, really only simulation of the past, start following it's on continuity? This "continuity error" Maya seems so much more chipper and adventurous than present her. ...And what happens when the recap catches up to the present? What's gonna happen to them her?
Primary Inspiration: Razputin Aquato from Psychonauts.
Yuni and Kokoro are a strong duo, with gender vibes off the charts! Can Maya's new info give her an edge in this fight!?!? (Not to mention Maya is supposed to be Kokoro's therapist, this is not up to code! 😱)
Whoever gets past this advances to the finals!!! This is it!!!

Astraeus
“Captain Nameless taught Astraeus how to run on crutches. But she’s so insistent I go faster! Pretty soon, Astraeus is worried he’ll run so fast he’ll start swimming in the air!”
In the deepest, darkest depths of the ocean, a race of merfolk wallows in general misery, albeit safety. Astraeus, naturally adventurous, rejects this, and leaves to see land, people, and sunlight. A sailing captain he meets, Nameless the Beardless, teaches Astraeus that traversing the human world isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. The merman responds simply: grabbing a pair of crutches and walking forward anyway. Nameless, perhaps a little too impressed, immediately starts training Astraeus to overcome any obstacle on crutches. …Really REALLY training him. Astraeus’s top speed on land is 30 mph, and god does he look frantic as he does it.

Sue Mary (Shirley A. Gonna)
“I am nothing more than a shambling corpse, designed to demonize systems everywhere. It is obvious. I shouldn’t exist, sister.”
Shirley A. Gonna was originally a main antagonist, who existed to blame a neurodivergent person for society’s woes. Jilly Bean, sensing a scapegoat villain, changed Shirley’s life forever with a second chance. Wishing to atone and help her new friend, she put her all in reforming villains like her. Until one proved they really were just a villain, and everything went black for her. Years later… She woke up. An inky slime, Sue Mary, had accidentally merged and resurrected her body. Feeling immense guilt for her failures in life, “Sue Mary” decides to heal her friend one last time before leaving for good. She is the final main character of TYFE: Death of the Author.
Primary Inspiration: Tsumugi Shirogane from Dangan Ronpa (Read that full name title again)
🍓The last match of round 3!! And one we're... honestly really interested in seeing where it goes!! I don't think we ever expected Astraeus to get this far lol.

Wheat Doe
“It’s MY life, and no one can take that away from me!”
In a dingy, monster infested dungeon, a trap was sprung on the destined hero of the land, Wheat Doe. Mira Cooper, the Lord of Evil’s right hand woman, used her enchanted copper mirror to foil the hero. Morphing her body to mimic Wheat in body, mind, and soul, Mira separates Wheat from her party and takes her place. This Reflected Wheat, unaware she’s a fake, faces many challenges connected to her mimic existence. Even as the copper reflection oxides and grows patches of mold-like green, this Wheat Doe is ready to fight tooth and nail to prove she’s just as real. Reflected Wheat Doe is the main character of TYFE side story: Molded Reflections.

“I am nothing more than a shambling corpse, designed to demonize systems everywhere. It is obvious. I shouldn’t exist, sister.”
Shirley A. Gonna was originally a main antagonist, who existed to blame a neurodivergent person for society’s woes. Jilly Bean, sensing a scapegoat villain, changed Shirley’s life forever with a second chance. Wishing to atone and help her new friend, she put her all in reforming villains like her. Until one proved they really were just a villain, and everything went black for her. Years later… She woke up. An inky slime, Sue Mary, had accidentally merged and resurrected her body. Feeling immense guilt for her failures in life, “Sue Mary” decides to heal her friend one last time before leaving for good. She is the final main character of TYFE: Death of the Author.

“I’m Maya St. Fleur, and I’m gonna blow your mind!”
An ex-demolition woman turned psychic therapist (and a zombie descendant), Maya is employed by a recap therapy organization. Despite this, she’s actually never faced her past grief of losing several close people, choosing to forget instead. Trouble strikes when she needs to attend her own recap therapy, due to an actual total memory loss accident caused by Yuni. With slightly different circumstances, will Maya finally build on her past events? Or simply continue to demolish what shaped her...? Maya is the main character of TYFE Part 1: That’s Life.
Primary Inspiration: Razputin Aquato from Psychonauts.

Achara A-wut
“If I'm a pin who was lucky enough to dodge the bowling ball, what about the other pins? Why the alley? Why is everything designed to strike someone down no matter what?”
Achara grew up as a esper with one specific goal: Be a SUPER superhero. Always with her missing sister’s old dual stripe bowler hat on, Achara is kind, gentle, and intelligently tries to solve problems… all qualities that seem to be at odds with the worldwide superhero organization. Horrified to find out how deeply corrupt and hierarchical it is, Achara realizes there’s only one way to be a real superhero: Tear down the bowling alley with your fellow pins. …And also gain a magical girl ghost living in your shadow. Sick. Achara is the main character of TYFE side story: Anarchy Alleys.
Primary Inspiration: Kingpin from Spiderman: Into the Spideyverse
🍓In one of our biggest matches yet, two of the OP's favorite OC's go head to head as the two big psychics of the cast!! Maya the mental psychic, or Achara the esper supernatural psychic!?
Who will advance to the next round!? You decide!!!!!
🍦And Maya moves forward in the bracket!! Sorry Achara, at least she didn’t get a strike against you! It’s alright, Maya is the secondary protag of TYFE after all!
“I do not feel emotions. I hope that this does not cause you distress of any kind.”
Appearing quite emotionless at first glance, Jilly Bean is actually a severely self destructive individual focused on others first. Much of this stems from her assuming she fakes all of her emotions, when in reality she’s an undiagnosed system with one low emotion alter. She has a tendency of intervening with stories she feels demonizes someone unfairly. This need to be someone else’s anchor has led her into much trouble; the lemon coloring on her body is actually scar tissue for example. With the loss of one reformed villain turned friend, Shirley A. Gonna, Jilly’s low emotion alter gets front stuck, worsening her mindset. She is a recurring character in TYFE.

Wheat Doe
“It’s MY life, and no one can take that away from me!”
In a dingy, monster infested dungeon, a trap was sprung on the destined hero of the land, Wheat Doe. Mira Cooper, the Lord of Evil’s right hand woman, used her enchanted copper mirror to foil the hero. Morphing her body to mimic Wheat in body, mind, and soul, Mira separates Wheat from her party and takes her place. This Reflected Wheat, unaware she’s a fake, faces many challenges connected to her mimic existence. Even as the copper reflection oxides and grows patches of mold-like green, this Wheat Doe is ready to fight tooth and nail to prove she’s just as real. Reflected Wheat Doe is the main character of TYFE side story: Molded Reflections.
