The pretty boy(?) and the disco mom….

[GalaxyCrisis]

My vote goes to Ragyo Kiryuin.

[_Anthony_]

My vote is for Ferid

[Heavenspiercing]

Not a fan of Ferid, but I'm even less of a fan of Ragyo, so voting for the former.

Ragyo's a piece of work ain't she? She's obsessed with clothes, uses her children for experimentation with life fibers fairly young and even fresh from the womb and uses them as she pleases for her research. Also she's a crazy disco mom trying to take over the world and cover the world in COVERS. She's crazy but also pretty fabulous and entertaining as a villain. She's got the crazy fab side and she's really one hell of an antagonist. Shitty moms make some great villains don't they?

I hope Ferid wins this one knocks on wood, 3/3, intense

[rosebrook]

Voting for Ragyo. both of these guys do terrible things to children, but Ragyo does them to her own children.

Ferid gets my vote. That part at the end of the first episode is one of the most visceral scenes from any anime. Sets the tone for the rest of the series.

Ferid Bathory

[SpacemanHardy]

Both of them are completely despicable, but I gotta give this one to Ferid, because unlike Ragyo, he actually manages to kill more than a single person over the course of his own show.

Plus, seeing as the show ended on a cliffhanger, we still don't know how deep his treachery runs. #EricValeDestroysTheWorld might very well actually become true.

Maybe I missed something, but I don't see how Ferid is even in contention. Yea he killed Yu's family, but beyond that, Ferid was really nothing more than a rock in the river's course that was Krul. He didn't act to harm Yu and his team, he acted to spite Krul.

If his actions in the very last episode were any indication, Ferid's true intentions have yet to be revealed. It's very possible that he's been the one pulling the strings the entire time.

@nubguy:

He killed Yu's entire family and kidnapped his brother. That's not enough?

I'm thinking he did more than just "kidnap" him, if you catch my drift. O.o

[nubguy]

SPH does that count as a spoiler? I wasn't sure lol

Lol yeah, well, you have to break a couples eggs if you want to make an omelette, right?

If it happens in the first episode, it's fair game.

Cool, just wanted to make sure.

Probably too little, too late, but I'll throw a vote to Ragyo.

The poll closes at 11:59pm, so you're not late :)
