That works.
The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.^^You pretty much can't get a pic of her sleeping and still have it work, as by the time she closes her eyes, the opponent is already in the magnifier.
Hell, to get CF to stay onscreen long enough to get that picture, I had to do about 10 frames of perfect smash DI towards the lower left.

Belief or disbelief rests with you.In that case, I guess it works.
Looks good to me.
Support Gravitaz on Kickstarter!It makes zero sense unless you have played the game.
Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!^It looks like a pink moe blob set a muscular guy on fire and sent him flying.
Does this game have some loser/victor poses? Jigglypuff as winner, some really badass-looking guy as loser.

^Brawl would be better for that kind of image. Jigglypuff beating someone like Snake would be good for that.
Belief or disbelief rests with you.It's enough for me. Never played the game, but surely one character there looks vastly more absurd than the other.
The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.Yeah, it's good enough. A lot of people know about Rest's crazy K.O. thing too.
It doesn't matter if a lot of people know.
Regardless, the suggested image is fine.
I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!But yeah, we still need a caption, the asterisk that help find out what stuff means (forgot what that was called), and the right approval.
I would prefer a victory shot of Jiggly vs. Snake (or Bowser or whatnot), as suggested above.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!I like the Jigglypuff image.
I liked it better when Questionable Casting was called WTH Casting AgencyWhy not a picture of Dan Hibiki flashing a thumbs up with Akuma on the ground, with the caption "Dan Hibiki: World's Strongest Fighter"? I think more people would be better acquainted with Street Fighter (I certainly am) plus you could make it from a screenshot to avoid the "face and a caption" problem.
What do you think?
It would have to rely on the caption to get across that Dan's a joke character, and that's a bad thing.
How about these two pictures, as a "before and after" type thing? I don't know if that sort of thing is allowed, and I assume resizing would be necessary, but they show the joke character beating the main character with perfect status. And the squat yellow dinosaur is clearly a joke character.
EDIT: aaaand I can't link the images. Going to figure this out in a sec...

There's also the problem that, IIRC, Dan is just a Joke Character.
Belief or disbelief rests with you.He is, but he also invented the Lethal Joke Character trope at the same time. He's deadly in the right hands, especially in Street Fighter IV, where his Joke Character status has been completely taken away and he's actually a viable competitor among the cast.
I can't say he looks◊ jokey enough.
For those wanting Jigglypuff victory shot, here's my attempt at it.

That one works. A wad of sleeping cotton candy beating three badasses? Sure.

The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.I'd still prefer the one of Captain Falcon getting blown up.
Appearances have nothing to do with the trope. If you want someone who looks like a joke, then go to Fighting Clown, where appearance is everything, and Joke Character status usually won't even apply (prepare to get your ass handed to you by a clown).
When I clicked on the thread, I was thinking that a victory screen shot of Servbot from MvC2 would be perfect. The Jigglypuff version is probably just as good, although does raise the good question of how exactly a reader is supposed to tell that either one is a joke character without the caption telling them.
A little, only because it kinda looks like Jigglypuff is a little drowsy there herself.
