osu!taiko mascot voting

by deadbeat

Over the course of a month, we received 67 entries and there have been some amazing submissions, and now, their fates are in your hands.

We've set up a voting page over on the new site which you can access here, and vote for your top 3 entries. The voting will last for 2 weeks ending on September 5th. Whoever wins will (subject to staff approval) have their entry accepted as the new osu!taiko mascot. Along with this, they will also receive an osu!artist forum title, 12 months of supporter and $50 store credit. Second place will receive 3 months of supporter and third, fourth and fifth place will each receive a month of supporter.

Good luck to all who have entered and happy voting.

Would've been really nice for the pictures to also include the links to the thread, that way people know the full info to the character and not just their appearance.

Make a BachoBot mascot contest. That would be interesting.

what is this its so bad LOL

Personally, I think the mascot should be one of the male drawings just to balance out the mascot genders.
If not, then the CtB mascot will be the only male. Not that I have anything against females, just seems right to balance it out.

Rem and Ram for osu!taiko mascots tbh

Why didn't anyone submit a pair of mascots; one for don, and one for kat?
I thought this would be an obvious one... lol
You could even have one male and one female (for equality).
Don and Kat are even male and female names in English. :3

I did this originally, and included it in my post, but I didn't make a high res. version because I questioned how it would work in game. And so in the end I only designed the female one as my entry lul

lol @ the robot. kinda sad that this thing gets the most attention and the people who probably took a long time trying to come up with theirs get nothing tho.
voted for alisa, foxgirl (not taikon, the other foxgirl) and tamia... uh... uguu >///<

Is there any way to vote for the robot 3 times?
Also, taiko bachi are very thick (or sometimes they are spear shaped); the game isn't played using normal drumsticks. A lot of these entries seem to have really thin sticks. Just bothers me a little bit because it shows a lack of understanding of how the game actually works.

I already regret entering lol

I'm not doing any harm by voting, you know.
Onosaki should be the mascot. Not going to lie, only liked 2 designs from that list.

If Onosaki-hito just took a selfie and entered it as his submission I would vote for it

9 years ago

it's just the base idea right? if it's the final form then meh....
also, we lack of boy mascot. we really need ono in his okuu outfit

Awgh :c I just entered yesterday, I have an awesome idea, just is too late now(yep, is not a loli xD)

Donkey Kong. Because Taiko is the same as Donkey Konga.

vote for robot-chan

Many of the lolis look too cute and fragile to be a cool drummer imo...
The best compromise is Zumi I think but some of the non-lolis are cool too.

Latin Boy FTW.
It is to vary and balance at once. Not everyone should be anime/vocaloid style, blond or blue eyes.
