The '''Fuhrer''' is a character featured in the '''''Persona 2''''' duology by Atlus, consisting of ''Innocent Sin'' and its sequel ''Eternal Punishment''. Originally named '''Adolf Hitler''' in the Japanese version, he was "censored" in international versions of the game by giving him sunglasses, renaming him "Fuhrer", and changing his boss arena from a Nazi swastika-patterned floor to one filled with magic rune circles.
Line 31:
 
During the quarter-finals, Nyarlathotep's presence in the threads shifted away from his dictator persona and more towards "Rumorposting", wherein anons tell rumors of rigging in favor of a character (alluding to the game's rumormongering mechanic), or claiming responsibility for all the drama and chaos in the threads (reflecting his manipulative personality). These posts are usually accompanied by a picture of the fake Akinari.
 
To the shock of many anons in [[King of /v/ 2023]], Nyarlathotep not only failed to qualify but received so few votes, only eight, that he landed into the Bottom 128 tournament. The general conclusion about how this happened is due to an error in the qualifiers in which he was originally entered as Nyarlathotep (AKA Fuhrer) instead of Nyarlathotep AKA Fuhrer (Persona 2); this option was altered on the list at some point, causing many of the votes placed for him to be lost.
 
Nonetheless the Fuhrer's machinations were still felt in the tournament as he schemed from the depths of the Butler of /v/ tournament, dominating matches against the usual Bottom 128 Literally Whos until eventually being voted out in the Quarterfinals, perhaps due to anons feeling it unfair an Elite Eight member was allowed in a tournament reserved for the least popular picks in the first place. Aside from disrupting the Bottom 128 tournament, Nyarlathotep also appeared as usual whenever the threads would be overtaken by shitposters, claiming responsibility for lowering the thread quality and further stoking the fires by spreading rumors about the remaining candidates.
