Echoes of the Future

Squints. Tumblr may be crunching my poster quality.

(Someone should tell me if I need to just type out the survey related data on the poster out here)

Extra fun facts from the data!

Terra is in 11th place on the favorite character scale

The 59.18% of people with Days as the favorite story with one of the sea salt trio as the favorite character gets bumped up to 64.63% when you include Saix/Isa in there

The 44.87% of people with BBS as the favorite story with one of the wayfinder trio as the favorite character gets bumped up to 57.69% when you include Vanitas in there

50% of people who put UX as their favorite story had a relevant character (such as Strelitzia or Brain) as their favorite

70.45% of people who put Roxas as their favorite character put KH2 or Days as their favorite story

65.31% of people who put Xion as their favorite character also put Days as their favorite story

81.81% of people who put Ven as their favorite character put BBS or UX as their favorite story

80.55% of people who put DDD as their favorite story put Sora or Riku as their favorite character

All 5 people who put Brain as their favorite character also put UX as their favorite story

All 5 people who put Zexion/Ienzo as their favorite character all put different stories as their favorite

Here's an extra visual I didn't include in the poster showing the additional favorite story breakdown of the top 7 characters. Not in the poster because A) where the heck would I put it? B) I used the heart colors for each game but it feels like maybe too much all at once??? And C) there is bias

Listen. There are more people who said Roxas was their favorite character AND Days was their favorite story than there were people who said CoM was their favorite story regardless of favorite character. There is a very obvious trend of Days because there were already so many people saying the Days story is great. Comparing them like this isn't really great. Feels... disingenuous or something...

ANYWAYS!

Shout out to the only other person who said Repliku was their favorite character <3

Also, tagging the people I saw who were curious about the end result of this project :]

They will then violently insist that this version is superior to the canon one and act like they "fixed" them and it's like. Buddy that's not the same character anymore. That's just your own oc commiting identity fraud. Like. I get the desire to experiment with different interpretations of a story. But first of all it's okay to just make an original character if that's what you really want to do. And second of all, are you even really a fan of the character you "fixed" if they're a completely different person afterwards?
