  • "Erwin Smith (vice-presidential candidate: Levi), Political party: Jaegerista".
  • "Frieren (vice-presidential candidate: Fern)".
  • "Luffy (vice-presidential candidate: Zoro), political party: Strawhats".
  • "Lelouch (vice-presidential candidate: Suzaku), Independent".
  • "Makima (vice-presidential candidate: Denji), Independent".
  • "Princess Mononoke (vice-presidential candidate: wolf monster), Independent".

I would still vote for Erwin. Although "Strawhats" is an objectively good name. I think I'd go for the Frieren/Fern team. Although I would like an Emilia/Subaru team, it would make a lot of sense."
