This match was like Donkey Kong/Sam Fisher in that it was comparable to watching flies fly in terms of excitement, with the only difference being that I myself am a rather big fan of the two characters in the poll. DK and Sam... not so much. This really was just another poll in which a Nintendo character was given the chance to flex some muscle against fodder.

Laharl was projected to score 28.24% in the match. Yoshi began the poll with over 75%, stayed extremely consistent (see also: boring), and ended the poll by doing better than the stats suggested by 2%. Given that Yoshi was a lock to win his fourpack before jobbing to Mega Man, there really isn't much else to say about this match. The only surprise as far as I can tell is that Laharl made it back into this contest in the first place. I figured that the Disgaea cult wouldn't be able to get Laharl in a second time after seeing how badly he did the first time around.

Maybe Laharl can get in next year and face someone really weak from a game that sold like three copies, who knows. As for Yoshi, he was.... well on his way to winning his fourpack before jobbing to Mega Man. Stunning.
