Caption Battle: The Evil Not Seen...

"It's that time again..."
"To find more retail shelf space for another Guitar Hero game?"
"To take it to Renaissance Italy, one hidden blade assassination at a time?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"

But first, last week's winners:

In third place, being just geeky enough to be extra funny: KeenHavoc!

Wario: "Hey, did you see this awesome valley?!"
Sonic: "Man I hate bump mapping."

In second place with some nice deadpan observational humour: darknessslayer!

One of the better games Sonic has been in recently.

And in the coveted first place, with a kinda cheap but undeniably funny shot... Miss Anonymous!

Sonic could have lived without the knowledge that Wario was wearing a thong.

There were a few great lines in there this week, so good work. Moving on...

This week we'll go with an old screencap courtesy of Nehszriah featuring the series Cyborg 009 (the 2001 series, specifically). On the left is Cyborg 006 (alias Chang Changku), on the right is Dr. Isaac Gilmore. Go for it:

And like always, theOtaku is open to all submissions and suggestions for weekly feature content. You have a screencap you want used, you can PM me and we can do somethin' about it. So good luck, and remember: "Stick to beer, you're in the clear" was totally busted on Mythbusters.

Caption Battle: Baby Got Back... WAH-HAHAHAHA!

"It's that time again..."
"To DVR South Park?"
"To begrudgingly play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 because it's an excellent game of quality even though we have ethical issues with Activision as a company?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"

But first, last week's winners:

In third place with a stealth-morbid one-liner: Hikari Mogami!

You can't be on the Naughty List if there is no Santa....

In second place, also with a stealth-morbid one-liner that also has a clever ring to it: Shineska!

Bringing together old men two pieces at a time.

And in the coveted first place, being not quite so stealth-morbid but tying all the pieces of the picture together harmonically... lazyweird1!

Question: How many bishounen does it take to fix an old guy?
Answer: Don't bother. The kawaii background animals could do better.

Ahhhh, I should have finished this sooner... ah well... moving on!

This week's screenshot actually comes not from anime, but from the Wii! Courtesy of the ever-helpful Hisaishi and featuring the game Super Smash Bros: Brawl, we have Wario on the left and Sonic on the right. Have fun:

Caption Battle: Stage Magic Is Hard...

"It's that time again..."
"To watch more of CBC's brilliant show Being Erica online?"
"To figure out why The Beatles had such horrible sound equipment in Japan?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"

But first, last week's winners:

In third place, playing on something I never had to learn in school: wallpaperotaku!

I pledge allegiance, to the manga of the United Fans of Shoujo, and to the Bishounen, for which they stand, one genre under Japan, with love and beauty for all!

In second place, with the power of conviction: Ace!

Current count of Pat Benatar songs that would provide awesome captions for this image: 3 and rising.

And in the coveted first place, just baaaarely getting the crap past the radar... Wayward Warrior!

Curiously humorous given that it is posted on a site affectionately deemed "TheO."

Gotta say, lots and lots of good captions this week. Thanks guys! Moving on...

This week's screencap comes courtesy of Kitty K.O. and features the series Gintama. "On the left is Hijikata, on the right is Gin, and the old guy in the middle is... well an old guy." Got it? Good:

Caption Battle: Love Hurts...

"It's that time again..."
"To really just relax?"
"To do battle with THE AMAZING RANDO?!"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"

But first, last week's winners:

In third place, riffing on the ad-things: red.alchemist!

Music used to be her anti-drug.

In second place, pretending that Japan is Soviet Russia: Calaya!

In some countries, zombies offer you their brains.

And in the coveted first place... because the podcasters liked it and since it was good enough to break my previous "don't do it" suggestion... Shinmarooooo!

Things got awkward in a hurry when Yui screwed up her grammar and told Azusa the cake was a "lay" ...

It's almost sad to think that K-On! Month is almost over... let's end it with a bang!

So once again, we trust in the fertile depths that is Des-bre-ko's Imageshack to bring a very special screencap... cosplay, Halloween, it's close enough... anyway, that's Mio in the maid suit. Have fun with it:

Caption Battle: Eat... Become One Of Us...

"It's that time again..."
"To make another pizza run?"
"To add an egg to get breakfast?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"

But first, last week's winners:

In third place, only because the podcasters deserve it a little: Shinmaru!

Ritsu and Mio still cannot believe Ichigo pronounced Desbreko's name correctly.

In second place, because anime will always go for the shortcut: darkeangel!

Ritsu: Got your nose!
Mio: No, I got your nose!
'Mugi: Wait... where ARE our noses?!

And in the coveted first place with just a very suave caption... DemonKingAtticus!

Survey says only 2 out of 3 friends will feel that the current situation is a dream.

Only two more caption battles to go before K-On! month comes to an end! And Halloween is coming up... what will that mean?!

This week's screencap actually comes from one I took as opposed to Des' - see, here at theOtaku.com, it's sometimes just worth doing things yourself when the opportunity arises. Anyway, left to right is 'Mugi, Yui, and Azusa (I know, new character. Crazy.).

Beyond that... yes, we are all aware that the cake is a lie - even people who have never heard of Valve Corporation know that the cake is a lie - mention that the cake is a lie at your own risk/expense/unoriginality/failure. Ahem... anyway:
