Woo-hoo! John Raimi (Geist) has a pretty okay showing!

Nice work--that's a lot of dedication, KMDP.

You forgot the ARMS characters, unless a poll doesn't count and it needs to be a dedicated support list.
As I said, a couple of characters may have slipped through the cracks here and there (as an example, I almost missed Crash), I may have missed the ARMS character board.

Also, if all the ARMS characters come under one board they'd all be conflated into one "ARMS Character" slot like the Hyrule Champions did (Mipha has her own board, but all the other three were on one board so I decided it was worth Mipha being 'absorbed' into their supports; mostly because there was a lot of overlap anyway).

Hahaha, yes.
My support thread is less than 24 hours old and the only supporter isn't me!
Mwahahaha, top 300 here I come.

Not counting confirmed and deconfirmed characters. Skull Kid has skyrocketed to 8th place and sits at 77 supporters with more constantly coming.

Of course I have no idea what number all the other characters have risen to so eh.

Thank you! I'll be doing a new count soon, it'll save me a lot of trouble if people come forward with the character counts for me.

Looking through this list kind of feels like it hits home how much less active the community seems to be in terms of newcomer support for Ultimate compared to the Smash 4 day's (At least here on Smashboards). Seeing as how only roughly about 10 characters managed to reach 100 supporters (Let alone 200+) when even Layton managed to get 102 supporters during the Smash 4 day's. He is now currently at about 34 (Which I may either have missed, or you forgot to include him)

I guess It's part due Smash Ultimate already including most of the heavy hitters and people being overall satisfied with the roster as well as the relative increase of popularity of social media sites such as Twitter that most people prefer to support their favourites in those kind of places rather than on web forums such as here.

But still, It's an interesting thing to note eitherway. Nice job.

Based off the length of Banjo’s thread, he must have shot up to top ten
Does Banjo have an updated supporter's list?

Well, don't forget that not only did Smash 4 have a much longer hype cycle, it also includes Supporters all the way to the very end.

Also, thanks for giving me Layton's support count, I either missed him the first time or Layton's list moved pages while I was hunting (I almost missed Crash until I thought "Hey, it's weird Crash doesn't have a Support List" and search for it manually).

Wait... Can I update Elma's support list using previous Elma threads?
Yes. Like I said before, Old Supporters aren't exactly going to stop. :laugh:

Isaac and K. Rool's lists included old supports (by necessity, K. Rool's Smash 4 Support List was beyond huge and doesn't exist for Ultimate, and True Blue Warrior True Blue Warrior started right where they left off when collecting Isaac's supporters).

Yeah that's true too.

And no problem.

Disappointing to see Shantae so low, but I like how recently our thread moderator has decided to put together an active supporter list (maybe in response to this?).

Well, the Support Lists were counted last month, Shantae probably rose slightly since (though others probably also did)

I finally changed the name to reflect it's actual meaning, when I'm done with this month's count, I'll change it again.

Actually, I should probably add a "Now Counting Supporters" to the title as well. :laugh:

Oh, god. Thanks! I went to the Isaac thread and saw there was 10 new pages since before the Direct. XD
Yeah ever since King K.Rool got confirmed we got a major boost in activity and there was this long discussion about the Dark Dawn website being updated :joyful:

Oh, should I then I update my new supporters list with all the missing old ones from the Smash 4 day's so it becomes easier for you to manage?

Andy's thread is roughly at 75 supporters now.

Of course your previous count didn't have me included there lol.

Yeah, I often found myself forgetting the OP in the lists. Sorry about that. :laugh:

Thanks for the update!

Sure thing, just updated the Layton supporters list with all the supporters from the Smash Wii U/3DS speculation day's. We're currently at 124 now.

Looks like Banjo is up to 153 supporters. Not sure if that includes the wave of Kutthroats we’ve been bombarded with post the Smash Direct

Oh boy, Banjo has skyrocketed. He had 13 Supporters before, now he's got 140 more. What has K. Rool done?

Oh, by the way. Can people let me know if there are new Support Threads that aren't on the list? It would be a big help.

Already checked out Toad! If he still has 154 Supporters, he's in 5th Place.

I'll check out Chibi Robo, though.

Oh! Thanks.

How many supporters does Silver have? And is Billy Hatcher 7 or 9 (you count yourself, btw).

I cannot seem to find the SMT one on the chart. If you've yet to add it, we currently sit at 11 members.

Yeah, if I remember right you made the SMT protag thread after the initial count was posted and I wasn't updating it.

Would you like them listed as "Shin Megami Tensei Protagonist" or a specific character like "Kazuya"?

Ah, just do Kazuya.
"Shin Megami Tensei protagonist (Shin Megami Tensei)" is a mouthful.

Will do. :laugh:

I'd appreciate it if someone counted Sora and Geno's supporters for me so I can have a specific count; not expecting anything, though.

The Skull Kid list is constantly growing, and gained 5 more supporters last night alone.

But I've included a number system, so you can just pop your head in and see the final tally yourself when counting comes time
