          Thanos erased 50% of every sentient species in the galaxy with one click of his fingers (it was stupid that he did that, and a terrible way to achieve his stated aim - especially considering the power he had at the time - but he still did it).

            Pfft. The va who did anti-monitor erased multiple entire universes, leaving only one in crisis on infinite earths.

            But were talking about who died, not caused the most deaths.

            Hm… But does it count as ‘on screen’ if he was mostly CGI?

            Plus, there’s the additional complication that he didn’t quite kill them – he made them all disappear. And then they came back a few years later. So maybe it’s kind of debatable whether those count as ‘kills’ at all.

              I mean if we’re going that route, than any kill that doesn’t specifically show the person dying shouldn’t count, cause otherwise you’re basically just trying to except certain circumstances that fit certain characters but not others.

              I’d say Thanos being cgi doesn’t invalidate the kills, but the only ones that count are the ones we see. Bucky fading away? Counts. Inhabitants of helicopter we see crash above Nick Fury? They count.

              Deaths that are merely confirmed via census? Do not count for this comparison.

                But we’re counting kills per actor, not per character. Was the actor actually even on screen at all?

                  He performed the mocap and voice. I say it’s fine.

                  Curious who would get points for Darth Vader eps 4-6. Different actors did the visible performance vs voice.
