8chanmania XCVIII

8chanmania XCVIII was the 32nd Mania of 8chanmania: Season 3 and the 98th mania in total. It was the last final chance tag team mania, meaning only fighters who were in before were eligible for nomination, and made it the absolutely last chance to qualify for the grand finals of 8chanmania XCIX.
Due to its length, 8chanmania XCVIII was split up in two part - the preliminaries took part on July 12th, while the rest of the mania took place on July 19th.

==Side Matches==

*Hank Hill & Bobby Hill vs Horatio & Horatio - Hank wins against Horatio via pinfall
==Trivia==
*Beatrice was presumably meant to fight alongside her long-term plaything Battler Ushiromiya, but a typo in the team's nomination and TNA Anon being thoroughly done with Umineko meant she was assigned The Batter as her teammate instead.
*Kiryu singlehandled won against both Chuck Norris and the Jackie Chan Tulpa after Chuck previously KO'd his partner Kenshiro. The fucking madman.
*Bobby Hill landed a crit on Kazuma Kiryu an entire 48 seconds after the beginning of their match. Fucking magnets.
