Matt or Dimi
🕑 Added 2020-09-15 08:12:33 +0000 UTCThe finale of the Malenkee Saga will premiere on the 26th of September at 17:30 BST.
Before that, you have an important decision to make. Your choice will dramatically affect the outcome of the story. This poll will close on the 23rd of September 2020 at 12:00 BST.
Are you ready for the final chapter?
Following the completion of this story, and to celebrate Halloween, my new on-going series Die Society will begin on the 3rd of October. There is no Malenkee video this weekend (but there's an extra special video coming out instead) in preparation for the finale.

Just wanted to say thank you for saving everyone ๐ค
What a result ๐ I am so curious, to see what you have made of it! ๐๐

It's 5 ish hours before the final video premieres.... I'm soo nervous that I can't sleep
I donโt know what youโre planning to do with these beautiful results, but I think it says a lot about how we feel about your wonderful characters! No matter what I eagerly look forward to the finale of my favorite series! ๐
I know it would be a lot to do for you as a creator but since it IS 50/50 you could always just make both endings and make it into a "choose your own adventure" type of thing. #teamOR
Ahhh...the Mighty OR....
We are a bunch of naughty naughty kids, arenโt we?๐๐๐๐คช

I'm sorry Jim. But I love that it's a tie! You made such wonderful characters and we love them to pieces. I've been Team Matt from the start of the vote but the hopes of both our boys getting happy endings... ((Please?)) And we know this probably puts more work on you or irks you but we seriously appreciate it and all the work you do. ๐๐๐๐๐ค

I just checked this again and saw the 50/50 results! Omg! I voted Team Matt, but I also of course adore Dimi... I wonder what poor Jimโs going to do with these results ๐
^^; *wakes up ready to congratulate Team Matt on their win* o.o .... .... OoO!!! 'THE OR' WAS PRESERVED! OMG HAHAHAAA! YEEEESSSS!!! Youse guise!! ๐ โค๏ธ Jaysus, no matter what happens now, I love this place!
AAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Someone vote Dimi!!
NO ONE TOUCH IT NOW
TEAM OR!
SAVE THE OR
50/50 would've been nice. I'm fine either way, but... ๐
50/50 ๐ฎ๐ฏ
OR FOR ONE AND ONE FOR OR!
PROTECT THE TIE, SAVE THE OR

Please please please guys for the sake of everyone's sanity just balance it out and leave it!! Please!! <3
Since itโs so close, I want the ORRRRR!! โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
Both ! I can't choose, it is so unfair choose between these two. No no no. Both โบ
I second Cassiopeia's plea! No more votes. 'Tis perfect.
Okkkkkk nobody else vote, pretty please? Team OR FTW! ๐ ๐ฅฐ
^^^^^ This energy for sure. โค๏ธ T_T Why split either babe in half? Give both their happy endings, and send one to some pleasant country while the other stays active in the story if that must be. Why should either one be dead or doomed? Please.

Same ๐ญ
Jim: I'm not saving both of these characters, you have to pick one literally everyone: no โค๏ธ
Just realized being a little too much involved in this saga when voting for the fate of fictional characters made me more nervous than signing up for my 20 years long mortgage
This is such a hard decision!
If we represent a sample of all Jimโs fans, even only those who care about Matt and Dimiโs fate, the difference in voting now actually does not have statistical significance, meaning both teams represent EXACTLY a half. The situation itself becomes so hilarious ๐
I'm Team Dimi, and at this point I was already feeling like, no matter *who* gets chosen, I won't know whether to cheer or cry-- :DDD BUT I'M TELLING YOU. If this thing goes 50/50?! I'm gonna laugh myself ded! Like, I won't be able to *get up off the floor* for an *hour* if this ties, omg!! ๐ ๐ ๐ The BEAUTY of it!!
I applaud everyone who's voting. This tie is poetic justice haha!
Let us choose our own ending!!! Please Jim, pretty please!! ๐๐๐
Ahhhhhh ikr!! ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Etana Nwu
The fact that its tied right now is blowing my MIND!!
I considered, but. xDD I...I suspect that Jim might see that as 'cheating'. ^^; It is unfortunate, but I can't see an easy out anywhere. EDIT: _Unless_ having a 50/50 outcome would somehow also count as choosing 'The Or'? o.O; Is that. Would it. Did LaVey? I don't think he. ....DAMN!! ๐ I can't remember, it's been a minute. ^^; *goes back to watch the LaVey and Agent Saving videos* Edit edit: No no no wait wait wait, never mind. That can't be it. He said the story changes drastically depending on who wins the vote, didn't he. X_X
Am I the only one who's curious what Jim will do if the vote is tied?๐ค
That being said, I'm fully on Team #SaveMatt!
What Gloria said, a choose your own ending for this would be ideal ๐
*Loonnnnnnnnnggg Siiigghhhh* ..... Jim, you're an extraordinary artist, and a beautiful person, and this story is INCREDIBLE, and I love it. But also, this having to choose between them is waaaacck!! They're both wonderful! ๐ That being said: #IStillWearHisJacket โ #SaveDimi Support your local burger joint. Also, support the guy who treats you like more than a monster. <3
#SaveMatt# please, Iโd like to ask for alternative (ie. multiple) endings like a video game so that all are happy๐๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
I want both ahhhh
Babbzilla
Right?! This is so stressful!!
Babbzilla
Dimi is finally with his family! SAVE MATT'S SOUL!! He is a slave to a demon! Sure he's a little cray, but it's not his fault!
Sending you love from Russia, comrade๐๐๐
Please vote for Dimi! He's a kind soul! (I know it's fiction Yo)
This is so tense and there's still 5 DAYS LEFT!!
Babbzilla
Oh my god! You guys! We need to save Matt!! This is killing me, like how Matt died so many times for us... This hurts, Jim. It's SOOOO close!! Can't we have our Bread Soup and eat it too?
Good point... but... Iโm selfish I guess ๐
Joanna L Perkins
Whoa everyone. Why bring Dimi back? His family is dead. His soul is with them. You're going to take him away from them AGAIN?
As much as I love Matt and his genuine sweetness, Iโve gotta say #TEAMDIMI all the way! I love the accent sooo much, and just find his โcharacterโ more alluring. ๐๐ฅฐ
Definitely a tough decision to make. I had to choose Matt. I feel like it would have been right since he did end up giving us our immortal spirit and extra life that will eventually assist in defeating the last monster after all. Matt was not himself, his soul became something that took away almost everything from him, and he did die four times to save us. Hopefully now we can help him out!

This is heartbreaking. I never cared for Matt much but did sympathize with his plight once the origin story was revealed. Dimi is one of my favorite fictional characters ever. But Dimi's family is gone and maybe he was reunited with them in some afterlife or at least found peace. Matt's soul is bound to the demon forever, he can never reunite with his family or find peace if we don't help him. For me, the logical choice is Matt but the emotional choice is Dimi. Can't you save them both Jim? I'll buy you a beer lol
For me, for so many reasons, it will always be Dimi- he has such a beautiful heart and freed from the chains of his past will go ahead with so much passion and power, as well as love. I hate choosing, ultimately, but if I must choose then I choose Dimi and his passionate Russian mystic soul. xx
I made my vote and my pledge, but I really wish your option wins. I want everyone to be ok ๐ญ I'm ok with dying in the process and taking Astaroth with us, but let others be ok...
My reasoning, for what it's worth - Dimi has had a good life, and is currently living with so much regret. Why would one want to keep him alive to live in so much pain? Matt was snatched away from his family and didn't really live to enjoy life as yet. Why not give him another chance at happiness? In my very humble opinion, it's not about choosing one over the other, it's about being kind to both parties - ending Dimi's suffering, giving Matt another chance. Clearly I'm on team Matt...
Matt is the key, we need to save him, I vote Matt
It is...make the right choice, Cassidy, and save a soul โค๏ธโค๏ธ (<โ see those are both your hearts)
Mmmhmmm! ๐๐ป
I feel like this is one of the most important decisions I have had to make in my life, thus far. ๐คฃ๐ ๐
And so the moment has come....๐Though I loved Dimi, and would do nearly anything to hear his sweet spoken words of comfort again, the words of the Black Pope still haunt me. The beast knows what I want..and will surely trick me. Matt only accepted the beast to save his family...does that sacrifice not deserve a chance for redemption? I pray that Dimi is reunited with the family he lost, and will hold his memory in my heart always....*begins to suit up for battle* "Let this be the hour when we draw swords together. Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn! " ...now let's go kick some daemon ass....we've got a soul to save....
Canโt you save them both Jim?? ๐
Lady Bugg
I had to pick Matt but I feel like I have betrayed Dimi
kwill
You got to bring back sweet crazy cinnamon roll Matt back.
As much as I love Dimi, I voted for Matt. I don't want Matt to have to be forever damned because of his mistakes. I'm grateful for the second chances I have received when I didn't deserve it, and I want Matt to have a second chance, too. โค๏ธ
I had to vote with who had my heart first. #SaveMatt

dimi time >:)
ITS TOO HARD TO CHOOSE, But yes, Dimi! โค๏ธ
AwN
It hasn't even been a day, and I have already checked the standings of this poll more than I care to admit ๐
Matt damned himself, Dimi was innocent, save Dimi!!!
This is going to be harder than I thought. I want to choose Dimi, but my gamer brain is telling me that's the "Bad Ending".
Nanci Ives
This is the most appropriate answer I've seen!
I donโt know how to choose because I love them both, but the phrasing of it makes it sound like Matt needs saving far more than Dimi does...
Matt gave us his heart....how do we not save his soul?
This is an outcome I can accept. Give them both back to a timeline where they may live happily with their families. Let Malenky take Astaroth off into outer space and throw the damnable demon into the sun as her last act, complete with John-McClane-esque last-word-oneliner. :PP
You came up with this interactive masterpiece, so I am sure you'll end it well either way. #TeamMatt (but love Dimi too!)
I would love to bring back Dimi but Matts soul deserves to be saved. Malenkee is his kid for gods sake! We canโt forget how caring and loving of a father he was. At least Dimi got to die as a human with his soul. Please save Matt!
Katie
*Stressed walrus noises*
I voted for Dimiโค๏ธ but however this turns out, this has been the most amazing and soul crushing series ever! Ha I canโt WAIT to find out what happens! Iโm sure it will be a RIDE!! โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
Yay! ๐ฅณ
#TeamDimi here but wishing the best of luck to all those on #TeamMatt. This was a hard choice! ๐ฅ
DIMI. I have a crush on this Charakter. ๐
AndromedaCat
Kill Azteroth (die if we have to), saving Matt's soul, use the 1 up on Dimi, die happy. WAIT WHAT HAPPENS IF IT"S A TIE?????
Oh my Dimi๐ญ
Andrea Branham
This is like asking me to choose between my kids ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
I voted, but it hurt. ๐ญ
AwN
I literally just broke into a sweat because my Russian dad is trailing by 2%. ๐๐ช๐ฌ
The moment Dimi died I thought 'but we can go back and bring him back, right?'. If he's not back I'll just smoke a cigarette to his name ๐ค
What does saving Matt's soul mean in this context? Is there Hell in the world of this story? If Matt is being tormented by Astaroth in some horrible inescapable dimension, whereas Dimi is ordinarily dead - in oblivion - then Matt needs rescue more. But if they're both suffering the same fate, it comes down to gratitude and preference. And I think Malenkee has more cause for love and gratitude towards Dimi (possible personal bias speaking). Whatever you decide, what an amazingly gripping work of art this is, Mr. Jim.
I love both so much!!! I cannot choose. (
Remember.... he gave you his heart so you could save his soul! #SaveMatt ๐
It's such a tough choice, but I would love to save Dimi! Either way on how the story turns out, I know you'll knock it out of the park!
Bring back Demi, Matt and Tibor and may they all live forever and ever and ever ๐
Babbzilla
Oh my God! Matt or Dimi?! Okay... I had to do some hard thinking real quick! And in the end I choose to save Matt's soul! I mean... Yeah he cut off my finger and I'm still a little bit mad about that. But! He gave us his heart... He saved us from mr. Tingles... And everything that he did, it's not all him. We need to save him like we saved Graves everyone!!
Dimi! I can't wait to see how the story twists and turns! Either way, it will be epic
Nanci Ives
Matt has had many lives already.... But Dimi is with his daughter now.... Oh man....This is horrible. Jim...you have a real mean streak in you dude!
Jill
This wasn't an easy decision! ๐ซ
Let's just make this 50/50 please! Choose the Or!
It is good I finally made up my mind yesterday. ๐
Jim, give me Dima. ๐ขThis guy must be alive to find his happiness! And, by the way, his soul did not belong to anyone! Please please please !!!๐
What we've all been waiting for!!! ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
i vote save them both and kill malenky...(runs and hides)
