Tainted Cube Poll Closed: New Poll Will Open Shortly

I do apologise for not having this finished yet this week. It's very nearly finished, just needs a little more work done on it maybe one more scene and then it will be finished. Probably on Monday. Probably. I have recently gotten a new job which has, unsurprisingly, cut quite a bit into my spare time. In the meantime, let's get another week started.

---

Love Hina	1 (6%)
Neon Genesis Evangelion	0 (0%)
Ranma 1/2	0 (0%)
Rosario + Vampire	5 (31%)
Sailor Moon	10 (62%)

Where are they now?

Code Geass: The battle at Shinjuku has concluded, and Lelouch has murdered his brother Clovis in cold blood. Now that he knows the full extent of his abilities, he shall unleash hell upon the Britannian Empire.

Haruhi: Kyon and Haruhi are now dating, and have discovered that there's something peculiar about Kyon. What's more, the world has been retconned to feature the Britannian Empire from Code Geass, and Kyon may be the only hope the world has to be free of tyranny.

Love Hina: Keitaro has been more or less accepted by the girls as the dorm manager, thanks in large part to his newfound talent for knowing everything happening within Hinata House. But he's also discovered his connection to the other seven through that same ability.

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Shinji is about to pilot for the first time, but is a very different person than the Shinji we are used to.

Ranma 1/2: Kasumi has become the Warrior of Love and Beauty, Sailor V! It is her duty to purify those possessed by monsters that take advantage of a person's sexual hangups to control them. Her very first encounter involves her youngest sister, Akane, who is purified of her hatred of immature perverted boys alongside the monster. Upon recovery, Akane and Ranma are engaged.

Rosario + Vampire: Tsukune meets Inner Moka for the first time, and learns that Moka was a girl he was friends with when they were young. As well, he realises that he has the strange power to make people believe whatever he tells them. These convince him to stay at this dangerous academy.


Urusei Yatsura: Ataru wins the race against Lum, with disastrous(?} consequences.

Discussion of Latest Update

Last time we reached Sailor Moon, I didn't really change all that much really. But considering that Ataru is the protagonist of the previous episode... My my my! How things can so easily change. Unfortunately, I can't relaly imagine the bikinis having much of an effect on the narrative beyond "and they wore this", which means I do appear to have to give Usagi a harem.

Woe is me for I have little choice but to give Usagi an unwanted harem.

I think the most natural point to end this would probably be with Ami's intro, because that's the next story thing to happen. Stuff the filler. I want plot, dammit! This essentially means that Usagi's harem would consist of Naru and Ami by the end of it, with a threat for more still to come.

As for the likely answers to branch from this... it depends entirely on how much changes from Usagi's harem acquisition. Though I am open to suggestions on that count.
