LOVE and MASHIRO in action as new Soul Reapers, ready to challenge players in a game update

A wave of backlash has hit the anime community following Mashiro's unexpected elimination in the ongoing fan poll, igniting fierce debates among fans. Many are questioning character placements and calling for the removal of other contestants in response.

In the most recent round, Mashiro's exit sparked disbelief among supporters. Creatively expressing their frustration, users on forums questioned how Mashiro went home before other characters, with many pointing out that characters like Iba and Omaeda seem less impactful.

Community Voices Split on Character Relevance

  2. Mixed Feelings About Iba: While some defend Iba's character, sharing nostalgia for his presentation and moments in past episodes, others argue that he should've faced elimination before Mashiro.

  3. Sparking Debate Over Fairness: Many fans are taking to forums, sharing their disbelief. "How did Mashiro get kicked out before Iba and Zennosuke? Wild," one commentator exclaimed, highlighting discontent over elimination choices.

Current Mood in the Fandom
