4They know that people are watching them, day in and day out, so they decide to try and tell people that everything they do in their lives is ''not'' fight, but then some jerk who wants [[{{WolverinePublicity}} publicity]] will pick a fight.

6[[WMG: To follow from the above theory, the TV producers stop caring round about the Tatsunoko saga.]]
7I mean, what was the point of the characters fighting Yami if its never gonna be acknowledged again?!

9[[WMG: Yami escaped to the Tatsunoko Vs Capcom world to get back to full power.]]
10He wasn't destroyed, he needed time to recharge, so he escaped to the world of Tatsunoko vs Capcom, unfortunately, he didn't anticipate a few potential threats.
11* And in order to do so, he needed to screw the reality...[[note]]There was another older stuff here, from my own authorage, but now it's gone.[[/note]]

13[[WMG: Yami required more power to restore himself. (Coming from the 3rd. WMG entry)]]
14This is pretty simple: Yami was distorting the reality, and in order to do so, he needed to make some mess for it, since there wasn't so much power in his dimension. He created some sort of "Tournament" in order to obtain the energy he needed to restore himself. (Think about Anime/DragonBallZ's Majin Buu) There's also a reason of why he's missing two of his five original forms from ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}''.

16[[WMG:If ''Tatsunoko vs. Capcom'' gets a sequel, some of the new characters will come from [[UnexpectedCharacter out of the blue]].]]
17Remember ''Capcom vs. SNK 2'', where they surprised us by putting in the likes of [[VideoGame/RivalSchools Kyosuke]], [[VideoGame/FinalFight Maki]], and ''[[VideoGame/ArtOfFighting Ryuhaku Todoh]]'' ([[TookALevelInBadass who took several levels in badassery]] from the perpetual RunningGag he was in ''AOF'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters KOF]]'')? It actually worked, and provided a good amount of variety to cast dominated by Capcom and SNK stalwarts. Sure, I think we'd all love to see fan-favorites get in (people are still clamoring for [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]], the ''Anime/SamuraiPizzaCats'', and ''Anime/SpeedRacer'', by the way), but adding a feasible amount of B-listers (or long-since forgotten characters) from both properties might garner some interest. Then again, it probably won't stop the PublicMediumIgnorance of [[MemeticMutation "What's a 'Tatsunoko'?"]]
18* The Marvel series also added [[ComicBook/XMen Marrow]] and [[Comicbook/DoctorStrange Shuma-Gorath]], (who is rumored to come back in 3) so that wouldn't be strange.

25[[WMG: Yami is a JustForFun/TimeLord.]]
26* Cause every list needs one!
27
28[[WMG:VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe WAS fighting alongside them.]]
29* Viewtiful Joe was part of it, he was just in of those dimensional portals, and than when Yami was defeated, he was sent back to his dimension. This can also explain the heroes talking about him after he was gone and Joe saying ''ANOTHER'' dimensional portal. [[TearJerker Add some logic, and this can be pretty sad...]]

31[[WMG:If there is a ''[=TvC2=]'', the game will add [[AssistCharacter Helpers]] to the roster a la ''[=MvC1=]''.]]
32This branches off from the above "If ''Tatsunoko vs. Capcom'' gets a sequel" WMG. It would allow for a variety of characters from each stable, whether they be familiar faces, [[EnsembleDarkhorse company faves]], or [[UnexpectedCharacter the obscure]], to still play a role in the fight without upping the roster count to the point that it may be detrimental to character balance. More importantly, this circumvents the "character lacks fighting prowess" (or unique abilities that could be reasonably translated into a palpable moveset) problem that allegedly plagued and prevented certain characters from making it in the first time. For example, don't want to go the "[[VideoGame/FZero Captain Falcon]] [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros route]]" with Anime/SpeedRacer[=/=]Go Mifune? Have him barrel down on the opposition while blazing through in his Mach 5. It wouldn't be terribly hard to implement, especially if they stick to the 2-on-2 format.

34[[WMG:Possible characters for a ''[[=TvC2=]]'']]
35* Tatsunoko:
36** ''Anime/SpeedRacer'': He's arguably the [[PopularityPower most famous character]] Tatsunoko has on their roster. Considering that the Tatsunoko side in the first game suffered from a lack of familiar faces (Gatchaman being the most well-known in the States), his presence will definitely help out. Plus, we'd pay anything for Speed to be the [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Captain Falcon]] of the series.
37** The Manga/SketDance crew: Tatsunoko's resident [[BadassNormal Badass Normals]]. No, really. While Bossun, Himeko and Switch are normal with regards to power (least when compared to guys like Karas, the Gatchamen and Tekkaman), their downright wackiness and HotBlooded desire to fix problems will see them through. Instead of putting them all in the game, expect TheHero Bossun to take point while Himeko and Switch appear as [[AssistCharacters special attacks]], in a similar manner to Captain Commando in the older ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom'' games or Doronjo in ''TvC''.
38** [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji Ikari]]: Him piloting the EVA 01 would help add another giant character in the vein of Gold Lightan and PTX-40A. Plus, ''Evangelion'' proved to be very popular around the world, so he can get in with the same logic behind why Speed Racer should.
39* Capcom:
40** [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil6 Jake Mueller]]: Jake's whole design and movelist would work hand in hand with the type of foes he'd be facing in battle. Considering his dad Wesker's appearance in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', he can make it in. He can play the role of a melee-firearm hybrid (or a cross between Chris and Wesker to be exact) which can see him bust out his father's old moves while mixing in assault rifles, revolvers, grenades and the like.
41** [[VideoGame/SengokuBasara Masamune Date]]: The Basara series is HUGE in Japan. Masamune's All kinds of awesome. He's been in a fighting game before. End of story.
42** VideoGame/MegaManX. He long deserves to be at last playable in a proper VideoGame/CapcomVs title. Plus seeing fight alongside Zero again would kick ass.
