Mario vs Vader vs Goku?! Ranking the Greatest Fictional Characters Ever | S2 E11

What makes a character truly great — design, story, impact, or pure nostalgia?

In this episode, we build a massive fictional character tournament bracket featuring icons across movies, TV, anime, video games, and comics. From Mario, Darth Vader, and Goku to Jesse Pinkman, Wolverine, and Wonder Woman, we debate, argue, and vote our way through a single-elimination bracket to crown the ultimate character.

We break down:

• What defines a great character

• Why some fan favorites fall early

• Which franchises dominate

• And which picks might get us roasted online

This one is for pop culture nerds, film lovers, gamers, and anyone who’s ever argued “who would win” or “who’s better.”
