Welcome to the official AnimeSuki thread for the 11th annual Anime Saimoe Tournament, one that has become somewhat of a favoured pastime for some people here. Nominations for the 2012 tournament started over a week age on May 25th, and is scheduled to go on for about a month. More information on the tournament will be added to this post and the supplementary websites as it becomes available.

Anything in strikeout is presently unavailable. Links, info, etc. will be provided when available.

The Anime Saimoe Tournament (Saimoe or AST for short) is a tournament held annually on the 2channel (http://www.2ch.net/) Japanese forums. People all around the world participate in the tournament to vote for the most moe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moe_%28slang%29) anime character of the past year. (Though if last year was any indication, odds on you'll be blocked out from voting unless you're in Japan.) The tournament page is currently here (http://ast2012.saimoe.me/) and the nomination page is here (http://www18.atwiki.jp/saimoe2012entry/), both in Japanese only. However, a plethora of information in English can also be found at this site (http://www.animesaimoe.org/) which does live tracking of the tournament as well. For those IRC-savvy, you can try chatting with some of us here: #saimoe @ irc.rizon.net

The rules of how to properly participate in this thread:

Animesuki Saimoe 2012 Thread Rules:

Absolutely no campaign posts allowed.

This includes posts containing ANY campaign verbiage whether in whole or in part. Contributing to the debate is encouraged, provided you do NOT add "VOTE ABCD!!!" (or similar to the post itself). Simply rebutting another's post or opinion with "XYZ sucks" is totally unacceptable.

To be clear:

* Please do not create a post with the sole purpose to campaign for a character!
* Do not add “VOTE FOR XYZ CHARACTER!!” anywhere in your post even if the intent isn't to purely campaign.

We want intelligent, decent and fun discussions about the weekly Rounds and the subsequent winners & losers.

* No Image campaigning.
Do not create a post with an image or collage representation of a campaign poster. In other words: a PhotoShopped image of the character you want people to vote for with “vote for” text added to it.

Posting Etiquette:

* Please do not cross post information about this tournament in other AnimeSuki threads except those which are related to moe tournaments.
Keep all Anime Saimoe Tournament posts, campaigns, character information, voting links, etc., within this thread only or in your signature (signature size limits still apply).

* No "meta-posting".
Meaning: posting about another poster, the thread or about another post itself, is forbidden and will be deleted on-the-spot, regardless of intention. If you want to comment about another poster that’s off-topic and/or personal, send them a PM.

* Any flame-baiting will be deleted and those people banned.
Please keep the thread positive, fun and clean. If your choice doesn’t win the Round and you can’t discuss the fact without complaining, swearing and baiting people into arguments, then don’t post.

* Do not create image only posts.
You can, however, include an image with your discussion. If you want to visually support the character you’re voting for then please do so in the context of your original discussion and use only one or two images. We would encourage the use of “thumbnails” if possible (and please, no large images).
Please use Spoiler tags if you wish to post a non-thumbnailed image
--PM the mods if you need help with posting thumbnail images or using any of the tags.

To vote for characters, they must first be elected to participate in the tournament.

Character Nomination

Any female characters (including female characters without names, gyroids, and guys who become girls at least once in a series) who have appeared in any anime which has aired, is airing, or will air in Japan between July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012; appearances on these dates also make a girl eligible. For OVAs, the release date must be between or on these dates. For films, the premiere date in Japan must fall between or on these dates.

Girls are nominated by the first kana letter of their family name, if it's a Japanese name (foreign names use the first letter of the first name, which will usually be the given name). The letters are grouped in the traditional Japanese way, by grouping letters by the starting letter of the letter row. All starting letters have あ sounds. If you're not familiar with this aspect of the Japanese language, go here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kana) or ask about it in this thread.

Nominations are ordered by the first Japanese letter of anime. This also applies to anime with non-Japanese titles. Different letters enter nominations on designated days. In order to nominate this year, you need a code.

Each date and time listed is in JST (Japan Standard Time). To find out how your computer's internal clock compares with JST, here's an international clock (http://www3.nict.go.jp/cgi-bin/JST_E.pl).

And no Western participation allowed again, huh? Carry on...:rolleyes:

It's that time of the year again! I think Saimoe's been on a Newbie-Veteran-Newbie schtick so odds are this year is for the vets. I mean all 4 Ries, Hayate no Gotoku, Saki and K-ON are still in it this year.

Personally, I'm rooting for Urabe Mikoto this year. Oh wait Gahara-san's eligible. Oh wait Nadeko is too. Oh wait Ika-musume. Oh wait Ami-tan- Oh wait Kurisu- Oh wait. . . Oh god it's overload this year.

I'll be up on arms this time. Full-time Saimoe 2012-blogging commitment plus sigmaking plus character cards (I wanna try the whole ISML thing).

I'm still new to this Saimoe League thing but I hope see Madoka, Index, Black Rock Shooter, Persona 4, and Dog Days characters make the cut. I can't wait to see the match-ups, I can tell that the choices are going to get tough this time.

To be honest I'm really nervous about the veterans knowing that some of them did really terrible in 2011.

Pretty sure K-On will be one and done again :p

Anyway, from top of my head, I've returning girls from K-On (Movie), Working (S2), Ika-Musume (S2), Denpa Onna (Ep 13), HnG (Movie), Milky Holmes (S2), IS (OVA), Strike Witches (Movie), Toradora (OVA), Nisemonogatari, A-Channel (OVA), Hanasaku (Continue), Aria (Continue), ZnT (S4), Shana (S3), Rotte (OVA), Fate/Zero, Kaminomi (OVA), Zombie (S2), Amagami (S2), Saki (Achiga...not sure where the cutoff will be but I guess appearing for even 5 seconds count...) and of course, Gintama and Conan. And I'm pretty sure I'm missing a few series...

Of course, with that returning list, we'll have, for probably one and only time, 6 Kugyu tsunderes.

To be realistic, though...
1. Don't see K-On going far. You can still call them favorite but their main hour has long past.
2. Will see if Nagi finish 2nd, again. Shana doesn't look as strong as she's over in ISML, Louise is guarantee to assassinate someone again, Taiga will be a shadow of herself (Doubt they'll want a repeat winner that only gets in b/c of an OVA). Aria is never that strong, and Rotte? She only got into Final 8 last year b/c of the madness...
3. Will see how Poplar-chan and Yamada do. This is no ISML where people keep voting for the same girl, over and over again.
4. New girl wise, Niku is favorite for obvious reason. Kobato is close behind. This season wise there's Chitanda and Kuroyukihime that contends from Day 1. Then there's also Karuta & Rinchiyo that'll surely contend. Last but not least, ＼ｱｯｶﾘ～ﾝ／
5. Of course, there's also Saki. Most of the girl from the original series make a cameo. New girl wise, Toki and Kuro are the two that standout.

EDIT:
I'm still new to this Saimoe League thing but I hope see Madoka, Index, Black Rock Shooter, Persona 4, and Dog Days characters make the cut. I can't wait to see the match-ups, I can tell that the choices are going to get tough this time.

Madoka and Index are not eligible, nor is DD. P4 is, BRS is.

Feels like such a long time already.

Just two things I hope this year: less domination, and less voting restrictions. One is likely, one not so much. :p

I think the former is safe. For the life of me, I can't think of any series from the past year that dominated everyone's attention like the Madoka's and the K-On's (at its peak) of previous years.

We all would love this to happen. But yeah. . . less domination: probably. Less voting restrictions: never gonna happen.

I'm pretty sure Madoka, Index and Dog Days characters are ineligible this year. Which makes me sad because Homuhomu won't get her justice this year. And no Biribiri :(.

I just remembered last year's final. . .

Coldlight

2012-06-04, 07:29

I'm also not too concerned about the single series domination happening again, as I'm inclined to believe that last year's Madoka★Magica onslaught was an exception; the likes of which we'll probably never see again. In all this time, such domination only happened once after all; and this is already the Eleventh Moe Grail War we have brewing here.

As for the declining amount of votes, we know the problem isn't exactly the number of voters, as I'm sure there are many others out there willing to cast their votes; but rather the amount of voter IP bans, which even extend to some Japanese IPs. The expansion of these bans is what's clearly killing the tournament.

broken270

2012-06-04, 10:47

We have a strong amount of shows and characters for this year's AST, so hopefully there will be more voter participation, even if the number of voter IP ban appears to be still on. I am expecting shows like Inu x Boku an Haganai to make it to the finals. Saki is highly likely going to have one or two girls in the final. The rest seems up for grabs. Maybe Makise Kurisu can take one, possibly Takakura Himari as well.

A welcome back dearest old friend from me. What surprises do you have in store for me this year? Did you invite some old friends to join in the fun? Well I am looking towards this tournament with ever increased interest, goodspeed Saimoe XI do your older sisters proud.

By the way I am not voting and will be cheering along the tournament from the Friends Of Saimoe Stand as per now usual.

I have a feeling: they do not care other than the results of their collective opinions as to who wins. These people are cowards.

Y'know what would be funny? Someone remaking a "new" Anime Saimoe with a more open voting policy, AND taking the previous history of the tournament along with it. What can these people do? File a lawsuit?! LOL

2012-06-04, 17:02

Final wise I expect some Id@lmaster characters making it if their faction doesn't fall apart of course, even though to be honest this year's final might be extremely hard to predict. I feel like shows like Haganai or Inu Boku SS will pass round 2 but won't make it to finals. While I think the veterans doing worse than usual is expected. For Precure series wise it seems like Smile Precure looks strong enough it'll probably have at least 4 of its main girls making it in round 1 at least and it won't be too surprising if its Kise Yayoi turns out to be stronger than expected. Also of course I am expecting a Kugimiya Rie character making it into the finals as well.

For top 10 this year
1. Kise Yayoi (Smile Precure)
2. Aioi Yuuko (Nichijou)
3. Shijou Takane (Id@lmaster)
4. Shirogane Naoto (Persona 4)
5. Katsura Hinagiku (Hayate no Gotoku)
6. Amaha Miu (Mashiroiro Symphony)
7. Koko Hekmatyar (Jormungand)
8. Aoki Reika (Smile Precure)
9. Kurokami Medaka (Medaka Box)
10. Shana (Shakugan no Shana)

Micchi signing for my yearly dose of fibre. I think I can speak for most in saying that this year will be much more intriguing than last year.

Started following two weeks ago and got my top chars nailed down. Updated the Saimoe page (http://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/saimoe/) on my blog as usual. Hope Papakiki, loli bball RO-KYU-BU!, im@s and Mashifoni do well!

よろしく!

Following Micchi with my (really early) Top 10 for this year...

1. Hasegawa Kobato (Haganai) - She rise fast on my list...use to be a much bigger Niku fan before I turn my back against her
2. Alice (Kamimemo) - Probably forgotten by now...
3. Kuroyukihime (Accel World) - New girl, already way up on my list
4. Chitanda Eru (Hyouka) - Same as Kuroyukihime
5. Akaza Akari (Yuruyuri) - ＼ｱｯｶﾘ～ﾝ／
6. Minato Tomoka (RKB) - Needs all the love...
7. Nyaruko (Nyaruko-san) - My SAN point is nosediving...
8. Taneshima Poplar (Working'!!) - ちっちゃい先輩かわいい
9/10. Araragi Karen/Tsukihi (Nisemonogatari) - Just put here since they're "new" (Not really)

Will still support: Towa Erio (Denpa Onna), Azusa & Mio (K-On), Shana (SnS), Louise (ZnT), Taiga (Toradora OVA), Nagi (HnG Movie), Aria (Hidan no Aria), Rotte (Rotte no Omocha), Minase Iori (IM), Hitagi & Nadeko (Nisemonogatari), Tooru (A-Channel OVA), Yamada Aoi (Working), Takanashi sisters (Papakiki), Hinata (RKB), Tacos + Kuro + Toki (Saki Achiga-hen), Karuta (Inu x Boku SS), Chiaki Kurihara (Moretsu Pirates...since she's basically Kuroneko with glass), Niku & Rika (Haganai), Ika-Musume (Ika Musume S2)

In another word, yeah, impossible to pick this year with so many girls returning...

2012-06-04, 22:33

No Top 10 or Signature Seven yet for me, it's all still in the works. Even though I started preparing a list a couple of weeks ago. Say, the girls of the currently airing Spring of the Dead shows are also eligible, right...? They appeared before June 30, 2012 so... :uhoh:

Too... many... nice... choices... :eek::heh:

I have a feeling: they do not care other than the results of their collective opinions as to who wins. These people are cowards.
Yeah, I do wonder if the organizers realize this disaster in the making before, you know, they run Saimoe into the ground. :uhoh:

ahelo

2012-06-05, 07:19

Top 10:
1. Urabe Mikoto/Mysterious Girlfriend X (Despite how weird she is, she's totally moe)
2. Senjougahara Hitagi/Nisemonogatari (Our "tsundere")
3. Ika-Musume/Ika-Musume (Shinryaku shinryaku)
4. Kwashima Ami/Toradora (I'm scared that she might not do well)
5. Makise Kurisu/Steins;Gate (Science Moe)
6. Chitanda Eru/Hyouka (KININARIMASU)
7. Chiaki Kurihara/ Mouretsu Pirates (I swear she really steals the show when she pops out)
8. Yune/Ikoku Meiro no Croisee (Definition of moe)
9. Miyanaga Saki/Saki (She is eligible this year, right?)
10. Hakase/Nichijou (She's just cute)

Haven't exactly checked everyone but these are the character I'm most probably rooting for the most (not arranged in order)

Sessyl

2012-06-05, 11:48

Top err.. 2?:
1. Eu (Zombie) - Hnnnng...
2. Toki (Saki) - The character type always gets to me

Here's to some (hopefully) Saimoe madness!

After what she did last year, I think Misaka is better off taking a year off and continuing to let thing die down.

If it's not official, many voters won't show up even if they were turned away from the official tournament.

In 2010, there were several offensive posts made by 'these people' on Anizone.net when Anizone.net's Moe Tournament was in its middle phase. These posts used many slang used in 2channel , especially ones that is derisive about Koreans and other non-Japanese. Some were in Japanese, while others were Google translated version of Japanese into Korean. The posts expressed their contempt of Koreans and 'gaiin' trying to rip-off what is theirs.

So,

1. There are Saimoe equivalents out there and even the 2channel people are aware of them.
1.5 : Anizone.net's Moe Tournament used to receive dozens of votes that originated within Japan. ISML currently receives good deal of votes that came from Japan.
2. Some of them did curse at these Saimoes within 2channel and had tried to troll these copy cats by posting racist remarks in the 'offending' websites.
3. Few of them may have been involved in attempts to disrupt the 'gaijin Saimoe' process by stuffing the ballot with 'multivotes' and even some other 'cyberattacks'. This is speculative since only evidence at hand are sudden increase in 'multivotes' or traffic from Japan, sometimes close to a time when some 'suggestive' comments appear at 2channel or when those Japanese posts appeared in Anizone.net .

Oh, the super serious business.

The harsh exchange between AST and Best Moe. Yea, that's not surprising at all. Nevertheless, it is the fault for AST for implementing "xenophobic" policies. In fact, it's all the more good reason to hold additional "moe" tournaments.

I'll comment more later. But, I have to wonder: did AST people have any qualms about ISML? And what prompted the Koreans (aside from blatant racism) to hold one of their own?

Anizone.net decided to try their own moe tournament because it was hard for them to vote in the Saimoe in 2005, though in 2005 the concern was more about language and the wait time. Anizone's moe tournament had its trial run in early 2006 and its first full run in the late 2006

I'm curious as to how KyoAni will do this year.

Who from Kyoani is there anyway?

I mean...
K-On: The one and out nightmare is still there :p
Nichijou: Like it's ever popular...
Hyouka: Basically two girls (Eru and Mayaka), which means they can only dominate so much.

Out of all the Kyoani girls, Eru probably has the best shot at the crown. Depending on competition K-On may make some noise, but it's not 2009 anymore. Also, comparing Hyouka is nowhere close to K-On in terms of popularity...

P.S. And no, it's not Hina and Shana's year as well. Too many competitions.

SHAFT, on the other hand is slightly hampered by having the reigning champion this year. So I do foresee some problems with backing-up with a second title in a row, given Japan's reluctance of repeat winners.

This means, for me at least, that I am looking outside my usual 'each-way' bet of Kyoani (this year has been slightly below par for them) and SHAFT.

Knowing that Japan is reluctant when it comes repeats in the finals I feel the chances of the Saki girls making it to the finals or winning is kinda low. To be honest I feel like the Finals might be a free for all among the newcomers with atleast one Kugyuu voiced character.

It is possible to get repeat characters in the final 4 or a series to represent the final 8 a combined total of three years at least (Nagi 07 & 10 - Hinagiku 08 - Isumi 09)

Usually a safe bet is two years max. Nodoka (Saki) has likely used up her maximum number of appearances in the finals. Maybe the newer Saki representatives might have a chance. While Nanoha won in 2005 and Fate reached the finals in 06, for the others, once a winner is named, the other representatives from the same series will have some stiff competition just to get out of the first round.

(Don't remember every year though)

New, fresh batch of Saki characters. And Toki/Ryuuka will be way up top among them.

I am sad to report the animesaimoe.org site seems to be down this week. I hope it is just a case of updating the database to accommodate the new tournament and not for any other unfortunate reason.

Site seems to be back to normal already.

I wonder if for this year they'll continue with last year's (and also from a few years back) 288-way bracket.

Another year of AST with many funny entries... like Bucephalus, a horse from Fate/Zero's Rider.

So far with nominations there seems to be around 2700 entries. They're currently during a discussion/checking stage for the entries that were nominated so far, and this will continue until 6/30. Then 7/1 will be the last period for people to nominate more entries. Funny that going to the list so far, there wasn't a single bleach entry nominated.

Indeed, but AST nominations is all about listing every character that appeared in an episode somewhere even though only 10% are really doing anything. And as I've been translating AST prelims names since a couple of years ago, I'm used to see all the big battle shounen getting lots of entries during noms. I wouldn't be surprised if someone nominate all the Bleach charas on that last day for new entries though.

Breaking news: hayate season 3 is confirmed for fall. and hayate characters are eligiable. As long as they survive long enough the currently airing boost might propel them forwards...this could be something big here.

2012-06-29, 16:38

I don't see Hayate get that boost anyway. Fall is kinda far. Even i want see Saki vs Hayate again like 2009 that doesn't happen. Manga also in a slump lately and many people dropped it until interesting happen.

If fanbase that get boost from anime airing is Accel World, Hyouka and Yuru Yuri. These series is kinda famous in japan and Kuroyukihime is no.1 spring character from japan blog. Hyouka is no.1 in BD sales and Chitanda Eru doing great in Newtype poll. (Newtype poll mostly casual japanese voters that don't interested in saimoe anyway)

Wait, she did it in 2007 then in 2010, so the next time should be 2013 :)

That list nothing special anyway because that poll already circulated among western saki fans so it irrelevant now...

Before western saki fans voting in that poll Toki and Ryuuka hold 2nd and 4th place show casual japanese anime watcher love saki too but Kuroyukihime and Nyaruko also fav with 1st and 3rd...

ion475

2012-07-01, 11:12

It's Animeone poll, which can be crazy at times anyway...

Plus, if you look at the vote number (Something, well, always ignored in a certain NSFW website reporting) http://anime.biglobe.ne.jp/userranking/chara/34693/

Pretty much it's Kuroyukihime fan v. Saki fan at the end anyway. Kuroyukihime got 2811 votes while Toki got 2518. 3rd place on is around 1000....

The only thing that mean? Saki faction is able to destroy any sort of moe competition (AST included) given the opportunity, and as far as top guns from Spring goes, Kuroyukihime, Toki, Ryuuka, Nyaruko, and Eru, with Saki and Koromo certainly able to disrupt any fair competition :p. Yep, Saki faction is still as scary as ever.

Wouldn't be surprised if someone like Toki is sniped early on, though...

uis

2012-07-01, 12:28

Fuuny about it u don't see Nodoka in ranking but japan saki fanbase love Nodoka very much.

Latest saki chara ranking in japan Nodoka is 3rd below Saki and Toki that both 1st and 2nd.

That poll is already skewed by western fans anyway when someone put that link on 4chan and reddit. I know saki fanbase is strong but that poll didn't show characters strength for saimoe anyway...

Happy Saimoe 2012 everyone. Many familiar faces. It looks like it will be an interesting year compared to last years Madoka thrashing.

And this year I will be in Japan... meaning I should be able to vote! Muahaha.

So what characters and series to watch this year? It's quite an open field and very difficult to predict. Even the most promising series' could realistically be shut out from the top 8!

-Saki- is back, with even more characters. They'll be all over the place for the first few rounds, but most of the -Saki- horde will drop once they hit any real competition. Saki, Nodoka, Koromo and Toki, (and maybe one or two other new characters) have the potential to go pretty deep. I expect one or two Saki girls in the top 8. (I'm secretly hoping for Subara' to win it all)

Estimated top 8 power: 1.6

IDOLM@STER is the other series to throw a truckload of contenders into the mix. I believe Miki will do well, but beyond that I really don't know who's got it in them to go deep in such a frantic field. Again, 1 or 2 in the top 8.

Estimated top 8 power: 1.5

Nisemonogatari has legitimate potential. The returning stars of Hitagi and Nadeko are definitely factors, but the two sisters will probably do even better. There's a decent chance of this series landing a girl, or maybe even 2, in the top 8.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.6

Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai will have a decent showing from Yozora and Sena, but I wouldn't be surprised if Kobato turns out to be the show's ace. I'd say it's a 50/50 whether someone from this series makes top 8.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.5

Shana is back! Unfortunately, I don't think this will be her year. The AST community which once displayed deep loyalty to characters over the years nowadays seems to be all about what's new. Even with the boost from Shana's finale, I don't see her going the distance. Then again, it's probably her last year, which could draw some extra support.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.4

Mouretsu Pirates I think will have an impact. Each of the two main girls has their own shot at the top 8. (I haven't finished the show yet- only to EP10 or so)

Estimated top 8 power: 0.4

Ika-Musume was the same lovable squiddy this year as she was last. She may have lost a little power since she's not so squiddly fresh this year, but she's still got a good shot to land a tentacle in the top 8.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.4

Kamisama no Memochou gives us Alice. She's certainly got some of the most popular moe traits of the day and has a decent shot at the top 8. Her weak point is the less than stellar series she's from.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.3

The once powerful Hayate no Gotoku is at a lull. Saimoe knows the characters so well now that they just won't get excited about them over that mediocre movie, even with the new season being announced. They should be stronger next year. We can only hope.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.2

Working!! had a surprisingly good second season (a little better than the first, even). We'll see how well that translates into Saimoe power. Poplar or Yamada might make a mark this year. Top 8 chances are pretty slim, though.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.2

Milky Holmes was a bit of a surprise last year. I didn't watch the second season, but I still think a top 8 isn't out of the question.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.2

Rin from Usagi Drop is adorable. She should make the top 8 IMO, but I'd say the actual chances aren't very high.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.1

The impact of the unconventional Mawaru Penguindrum is difficult to anticipate. Ringo and Himari (and possessed Himari- if they define them as separate characters) might get somewhere, but it'll be tough.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.1

Mirai Nikki has one solid contender, Yuno. I don't think she'll even make the top 8, but I'm interested to see how well the pink-haired Yandere manages nonetheless.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.1

Nichijou will do it's best.

Estimated top 8 power: 0.1

I watched the whole first season of Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? but wish I didn't. The series didn't do too well last year and I suspect won't this year either.

Estimated top 8 power: >0.1

K-On!! has been abandoned. We won't see much from the light music club this year either.

Estimated top 8 power: >0.1

Fate/Zero won't be a big factor, unfortunately. Chibi Rin, Sakura, and Illya didn't have big enough parts, and the adults were just too... adult.

Estimated top 8 power: >0.1

There are a few possible contender series that I dropped early on or never watched but know something from. The list includes Haiyore! Nyaruko-san, Zero no Tsukaima, Yuru-Yuri, Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, MajiKoi, Guilty Crown, Last Exile, Rinne no Lagrange, and Black Rock Shooter.

So, yeah. I wonder why I like to waste my time on analysis like that. I only half understand the Japanese otaku mind in the first place :heh:

Meat is by far their strongest girl. Kobato is about 75-80% of Meat. Yozora? She has never been popular...

Kamisama no Memochou gives us Alice. She's certainly got some of the most popular moe traits of the day and has a decent shot at the top 8. Her weak point is the less than stellar series she's from.

Sad thing is, I'm not even sure how many even remember her. On the other hand, true fan of that series would vote based on the novel rather than the anime...

Nyaruko-san has Nyaruko, a Top 8 material (Of course, their strongest character is Hasuta, but Hasuta is a shota...)

Yuruyuri = Akarin is a Top 8 material. Other than that, the other girls are average in power for the most part (at least as far as I'm concern)

And you left off Eru (Hyouka), Kuroyukihime (Accel World), and more importantly, Shirakiin and Karuta (Inu x Boku SS). There is HS DxD also (Not familiar with the girls myself, so I won't comment).

Some semi-Top 8 material includes another (Mei & Izumi), RKB (Tomoka and of course, Hinata), Papakiki (Mostly Miu, Hina will get the lolicon votes), and probably a few girls that I forgot about.

On last note, Louise will assassinate someone again, mark my word.

I wouldn't expect much from the returning Saki characters. If you get into Saimoe via a cameo, you take a significant power hit (unless you're an Index character). Toki should do quite well, though.

It is Saki you're talking about here though...

The strongest would still be strong (Nodoka & Koromo). Secondary girls, though, would definitely be weaken as you said. Too bad the like of Komaki and Ikeda the 2nd Suehara (Not even eligible) doesn't appear enough...

New girl wise, it's Toki way up top, then Ryuuka & Kuro & maybe Subara Kirame. The rest will be 2nd round max...

"Cameo" doesn't really capture the importance of some of the returning Saki characters in Achiga-hen, imo.

Nodoka's role in Achiga-hen is pretty important. Her young girl self is a very important character with loads of screen-time early on. And her current self shows up in a lot of the later episodes. Even if those appearances are only brief, they're in almost every episode - It goes beyond a simple cameo, imo. It shows Nodoka having a consistent presence in the show.

On the flip-side, most of the other returnees really are cameos, yeah. Koromo only shows up briefly in one episode, IIRC. So you could be right about them.

But Nodoka (and to a lesser extent, Saki and Tacos) does have a significant amount of total screen-time in Achiga-hen. So I'm skeptical of the idea of them taking a "cameo hit".

Other includes Maon (Tamayura), Minori (Toradora OVA), P-01s (Horizon), Minko (Hanasaku), Shirayuki (Hidan no Aria), Run (A-Channel), and Kuuko (and prehaps Shata-kun XD) (Nyaruko-san) Predict: Kuro

Once again AST is getting ready to kick-off (within this week, IIRC). Didn't really realize that 1 year passed sooner than I though...

Hopes that this year's tournament will be more interesting than last year's, or even become the greatest ever tournament in Saimoe history. :)

Ithekro

2012-07-07, 13:19

I wonder if your calculation might be off when it comes to Type-Moon. There is another source this time around aside from Fate/Zero that I saw a lot of in the different groups....Carnival Phantasm. Pretty much every Fate/Stay Night and Melty Blood character was in there.

timbits

2012-07-07, 15:34

Let me see what I can make of these groups...

These are my predictions for winners of the groups.

Disclaimer: as I am an ignorant twat, take all of this with roughly a tablespoon of salt.

Group 1: Hitagi[Nisemonogatari] This one is kind of interesting, it's between hitagi and eru for the most part. Shinobu might split some votes from hitagi but since it's multi vote (it is multi vote right?) I kind of doubt it. That coupled with the fact that I don't see hyouka being that strong since apparently it wasn't selling all that well probably gives hitagi the win.
Group 2: Tsukihi[Nisemonogatari] Between tsukihi and ika. I'll go with tsukihi since she's a new character.
Group 3: Iori[idolmaster] This group could be any of iori, kuroyukihime, aria, nagi, or yozora. Random guessing is the method of choice for this prediction (a part of all of my predictions really)
Group 4: AM-I-POPLAR-YET[Working] Wow...according to ion this is a really weak group, who am I to doubt him?
Group 5: Toki[Saki Achiga Hen] Here comes the group of death, thankfully this is only the prelims so everyone important SHOULD get through. Toki will win against saki because toki is the true protagonist of achiga hen. See the following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PJOu19eIIU it is so much more natural.
Group 6: Shana[Shakugan no Shana] I want to believe in taiga, but she only got an OVA instead of a full season like shana. ;_;
Group 7: Erika[Strike Witches] Nobrainer here, she made it to quarterfinals last year, and the other contender, koromo, didn't get much screentime. Also worth mentioning in this group is that I completely forgot higurashi characters were eligible again due to kira, and the fact that hamster ayumu is in this group. Ayumu fighting!
Group 8: TOUSHINO KYOUKO[Yuruyuri] Lesbian antics will triumph over lesbian pirates.
Group 9: Nyaruko[Nyaruko] Main character for one of the best selling shows of the season right before saimoe? Yes, yes I think she'll be fine.
Group 10: Kyaputen[Saki Achiga Hen] It's another saki group! Other contenders will be kuro and kuuko, and possibly touka~desu wa.
Group 11: Azu-nyan[K-ON] The 2010 champion returns to...not take her throne because she only had a movie. She'll win a prelim group at least.
Group 12: Nodoka[Saki Achiga Hen] Nodoka vs. Meat...oh boy. Medaka might also be a factor for those voters who read the manga.
Group 13: Tsumiki[Acchi Kocchi] Pretty strong group here, with stealth momo and subara kirame from saki, nadeko and tsubasa from nisemonogatari, and kurisu to round it out. Tsumiki should have the advantage of being designed as a moeblob as well as being from a recently aired new show.
Group 14: Hina[Hayate no Gotoku] It's hina's year! No but seriously she won't make it past round two, mark my words. Mio and lotte will be contenders as well.
Group 15: Kobato[Haganai] Also notable in this group is bowling toki arata. Yes I just wanted to make that joke.
Group 16: Akarin[Yuruyuri] Who now? I've never heard of this character.

2012-07-07, 16:10

Group 4: AM-I-POPLAR-YET[Working] Wow...according to ion this is a really weak group, who am I to doubt him?

Well, I did miss Teru (Saki) and Yukiko (P4), and maybe Tsukasa (Amagami). Even then, it's still a relatively weak group compare to others...

Of course, unless people start voting for Funa-Q...

P.S. I'm no expert in prediction. And personally I don't know exactly how popular some mid-tier animes are...

uis

2012-07-07, 17:21

Oh well other chara in group 4 is Aizawa Sakuya (Hayate) and Cecillia Alcott (Infinite Stratos)... it weak group anyway...

Gonna check group 8 too...

ion475

2012-07-07, 17:33

Gonna check group 8 too...

I checked again...the only two I can maybe add are Wahaha Ganbara (Saki) and Suminoe Riko (KissxSis)...and even someone like Arakawa Kei (The ace of Sangamaki HS that lose to Senriyama in Kita-Osaka Tournament and the one that helped with Achiga's training before the Shirotodai murder...yeah, like anyone remember who she is as good as she's in mahjong), unless you consider the Zetsubou Sensei girls (Chiri and Futsu-san Nami) "strong"...

uis

2012-07-07, 17:46

ion475

2012-07-07, 17:58

Group 8 Amaha Miu (Mashiiro Symphony) *lulz put Airi and Sana but not anime heroine* Kijima Saki (Hayate) Yukine Chris (Symphogear) Tiffania Westwood (Zero no Tsukaima) Kyouno Madoka (Rinne no Langrange)

And I somehow miss Miu after looking over the list 3 times...(But then, I miss both Kuroneko Chiaki and Karuta up until the 3rd run through Group 16...and they're actually pretty high on my list...)

Madoka I miss b/c I didn't watch Lagrange (So don't know who's who...same can be apply to Medaka's Box and Tsuritama, probably some strength but I don't know who's who...). I don't think Tiffania is strong at all (Siesta is in the group also, and I didn't add her either. Zero no Tsukaima is an one-girl anime and even Louise tend to only win as an assassin...but then, Kugyu fanbase can never be counted out, just look at Nagi and how she finished 2nd twice by being the 3rd (at best) most popular girl in her own series...)

ion475

2012-07-07, 18:29

Oh well i am basically check other anime that casual western don't care but really famous in japan Rinne no Langrange, Symphogear, Natsuiro Kiseki, AKB48, Aquarion Evol and Sengoku Collection...

For Symphogear - I only know Hibiki, which doesn't help...
Natsuiro = I'm just not sure how popular it is. The girls are not high in Animeone poll (as accurate as THAT is) and the girl are just not that moe...
AKB0048 = No clue...won't even bother with it
Evol = Zessica is the only one that I know for sure is popular (Due to HanaKana).
Sengoku Collection = Round 2 max anyway, so I never care much about them...
Lagrange = Just didn't watch it, that's all...

Let see...

80% x 16 groups = 12.8 -> Round up to 13. Doubt I'll be THAT accurate (I've zero knowledge of 2ch anime demographics or even Japanese demographics in general. Adding in LOTS of personal bias...)

Full translation for the Preliminaries 1 Groups. There is 2 sheets, one ordered by group, and another ordered by series.

EDIT: On a side note, seems like I can get a code this year. Haven't figure out a way to post on 2ch yet, though...

EDIT: Nevermind...I'm suppose to just wait for a little bit and yay. Looks like I can vote this year!!!

Preliminary 1 is an interesting one. Idolm@ster vs Saki vs Nisemonogatari vs Working with significant characters from each, with Chitanda Eru, Misaki Mei, Miu, and Rias. This will tell us a lot about who's mobilized and how voters are biased.

I'm picking Haruka and Ami over Chitanda, with most of the other important ones close together, and Saber getting thrashed. Saki will probably keep a low profile. If the idols do get beaten, it'll be a pretty bad sign for Idolmaster later on.

Preliminary 2 should be shrimp for Ika Musume.

Umm...

1. Don't ever underestimate Kyoani fans
2. Haruka & Ami winning? They're not even going to beat Hitagi (Hack, I don't even see them getting past Shinobu, knowing that this is multi-vote and if one vote for Hitagi, one is very likely to also vote for Shinobu)
3. Don't underestimate Saki fans either. Especially when it's Tacos, who's always one of Saki's top guns.
4. And you're REALLY overrating Idolm@ster...

I can't read Japanese so please correct me if I get any of this wrong:

Source: http://ast2012.saimoe.me/rule/toutrule.php

1st Preliminaries
-16 groups
-Vote for up to 10 characters
-Top 12 advance to the tournament (192 total)
-13th-42nd advance to 2nd preliminaries (480 total)

2nd Preliminaries
-6 groups
-Vote for up to 12 characters
-Top 16 advance to the tournament (96 total)

288 characters total in the main tournament.

This is pretty similar to last year. The only difference is 480 characters instead of 384 advance to second preliminaries.

4. And you're REALLY overrating Idolm@ster...

I agree with you on points 2 through 4. I'm not so sure on you first point, though. Didn't the K-On! girls get wiped out pretty badly last year? And the Nichijou girls didn't do that hot either, IIRC.

ion475

2012-07-10, 19:11

TRE: You're completely correct. Only other things are:

1. Any tie means everyone advanced (Didn't change)
2. Still have to type some sort of comment for each vote. Only one comment is necessary per vote, though (i.e. no need to write comment for each individual girls in, let say, prelim). I don't think this change from last year either.

EDIT:
I agree with you on points 2 through 4. I'm not so sure on you first point, though. Didn't the K-On! girls get wiped out pretty badly last year? And the Nichijou girls didn't do that hot either, IIRC.

Mostly referring to Chitanda, who's popular mostly b/c Hyouka is by Kyoani (B/c the series is REALLY average...). But then, I'm basing it mostly on Animeone's poll, and Animeone is full of Kyoani and HanaKana fans, while 2ch = Too many trolls for anything to be predictable...

The ongoing poll for Group 1 prediction on Animeone:
http://anime.biglobe.ne.jp/userranking/chara/35636/

(I usually ignored Tiger & Bunny votes on there if you wonder about the 2nd place...Eru right now is 1st, Hitagi 3rd, the IMs way down...)

And all the K-On girls lose to girls that are not bad at all themselves. Of course, if Kyoani is really THAT strong, K-On would win everything, but, look at who the girls lose to...
Mugi - to Kanade (Group Finalist, lose to the ultimate troll in Erica Hartmann)
Mio - to Ika-Musume (Top 8)
Yui - to Minami (2nd Round, lose to Charlotte who defeated Erio)
Azusa - to Haqua (Group Finalist, lose to Sayaka)
Ritsu - to Sakura Kyoko (Finalist)

So essentially, outside of Yui, all of them lose to someone that at least went to Group Final...

Not to mention, last year is just a mess, consider the spam vote problems that didn't get fixed until Group Final...

Don't forget guys that you can join #saimoe @ irc.rizon.net to discuss...well, saimoe. (Just making sure people read the first post.)

In any case I don't believe Chitanda will do extremely well... Her series is below average for me, although she has her own charm and I like her as a character.

Well, I don't see her going into Top 8 either (Mainly b/c, as much as Hyouka is from Kyoani, an average series is that, average...). And I won't be surprised if Hitagi comes out on top in this group.

4. And you're REALLY overrating Idolm@ster...
It'll be disappointing if Idolm@ster fans don't care about Saimoe at all. The anime was well done, Haruka got a lot of focus, and it wouldn't take that many people with the low vote counts at this stage. I'll look for a cardboard cutout of Haruka if they can't even beat Shinobu.
3. Don't underestimate Saki fans either. Especially when it's Tacos, who's always one of Saki's top guns.
The problem is Tacos had a minor role and Saki will put a huge target on their backs if they dominate the preliminaries. If I manage to get a code, which is looking pretty コード発行制限中。。。しばらく待って。 this year, I'll avoid voting for lower screentime characters like her to try to make things look more competitive. Imagine what a mess the first main tournament round would be if we win half the preliminary groups and get 40 characters in.

Looking at this, I must say. I'm a little bit surprised at the selection. I'm glad to see
some familiar faces in that list.

On a side note, it looks like nearly all the girls from Another got in. Including Sakibara's grandmother. :twitch:
And all the girls from Higurashi Kira. Although I highly doubt that they both won't win this.

Getting her to win is probably the #1 way to troll Saimoe. :D

That would be the biggest troll in the competition since the fans struck back at the admin in 2004 with Rosemary winning it that year.

Hingaku just get the tissues ready too.
Ai once again round one for you.
Evangiline two may be all that you tango,
Miss Moa will you get another go..... no!

I was thinking along the lines of DESU, but sure. I've never watched that series by which Rosemary is in. So, I have no clue as to what made her champion material.

I'll place my bet against all the Hyouka haters.

edit: And I need to change my last year's signature.

Aside from the start of the fantasy tourney, still in observation mode atm. Prelims are a good indicator of who will do well in the main rounds.

Morning now and still can't get a code...

Of course, I've zero clue how that code generator works other than the fact that it's usually fairly hard for foreign IP to get code even when your IP is not blocked...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the matches have started yet. :upset:

Not surprised at the low vote total...I counted a total of 573 valid codes on the code generator site, so pretty much they're just not giving out code to anyone...

Game8910

2012-07-12, 10:56

Its pretty sad really. If vote totals keep decreasing like this every year the point of saimoe in general would be lost as this would end up being just a little popularity poll between members of their little secret saimoe club.
They must have been SO analdevastated back in 2007 by the "foreign intervention" that they still arent allowing others to vote...kinda sad

I'm pretty sure they want it like that because to them it's a "festival" to express support for your favorite characters. I'm pretty sure japan cares about what goes on in those threads more than the votes themselves.

How horrifying. Idolm@ster wasn't lady for that audition. Haruka beat Shinobu, so no cardboard today, but I was wrong about pretty much everything else. Even Saber made the cut in the first round to add insult to injury.

Wakanne coming in 5th was a surprise, too. That made Senjougahara look like a lightweight.

Of course, I've zero clue how that code generator works other than the fact that it's usually fairly hard for foreign IP to get code even when your IP is not blocked...
They can set limits on the numbers of codes for the regions those voting breakdown tables list (with the A, B, C etc). Based on the data we've been able to get, it seems they weren't afraid to give the "Not Japan" region limits in the zero to two range in the past.

How horrifying. Idolm@ster wasn't lady for that audition. Haruka beat Shinobu, so no cardboard today, but I was wrong about pretty much everything else. Even Saber made the cut in the first round to add insult to injury.

Quite frankly it's the top 14 competing for the most part anyway...

And I told you so about IM@S not being as strong as you think. Only reason why you don't have to suffer the cardboard fate is only b/c Nisemonogatari is a lot weaker than I thought...

As for result, I didn't thought Mei would come this close. Of course, if Saki is already dominating like this (I mean, Mihirogi 5th place?), I wouldn't be surprised if it eventually become a Top 8 battle between Saki girls XD (Okay, I doubt that'll happen...)

Anyway, my would have been vote if not for the fact that they're clearly not giving out any code to foreign IP (I refresh the page right at 2335 JST and still no code...)

EDIT: I realized I missed Fear...at least I don't get to vote = didn't vote for the wrong girl...

EDIT: I miss Elsie also...goodbye, Mako, hello, Elsie. I knew this group is not as weak as I thought...

I will be without an internet connection for a few days, in a worst case more than a week. And unfortunately I have no backup to do results and post it here this year. Remembering everyone that all the groups translations is here (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoNzJO5fzCqcdGtfRXdjV3VGWkxGS1ZNRERjYnhUY 1E). When I'm back I can go and do full results for all previous days I missed, so if possible to someone to do results of at least the ones who get in 2nd Prelims until I'm back.

Anyway, this time around I counted 592 total codes. Vote total seems to went up a little, though...

And yeah, Saki IS going to dominate...

Ika deep fried by Yuu's warmth? That's delicious but also pretty terrifying.

Cure Happy came in at Strike Witch level, so it'll be interesting to see how Peace does in group 4.

Saki Achiga-hen is looking very strong so far. My only concern is that this level of strength might attract snipers early.

To be honest I think its interesting to see how Beauty, Sunny, and March will do too and more interestingly Smile Precure will air on Cure Peace's turn

I wasn't really convinced regarding the abilities of the Saki characters after Shizuno and Yuuki failed to top Mei and Eru. They were close so it wasn't bad but it wasn't really stunning either. However, Yuu's performance looks really good. I'm looking forward to seeing how the main character of Side A does when she goes up in a few days.

Well...

1. It's a difference of less than 10. In prelim (even with the low vote count), that's not really THAT much.
2. Eru is strong, and Mei is underlook...
3. Tacos = cameo for the most part, Shizuno = The definition of "air main heroine"...
4. Toki will dominate Group 5, just watch...

My would be vote for this round...this is a fairly strong group in my opinion.

Also, after the Saki madness for the first 2 groups, this group only has a single Saki girl in Yumi. With this group being so strong, though, she may not qualify here...

While successful AST competitors have frequently had trouble in ISML, usually the strong ISML characters do well in AST. I wonder why Black Rock Shooter is such a large exception to this. Last year you could argue it was due to Black Rock Shooter coming off a single episode OVA but she has a full TV series now. Maybe her fans just don't vote in AST. Or maybe her fans hated the anime for being a huge mess. <_<

Cough...Eucliwood...Cough...(1st Round out last year against a Sengoku nobody...)

Of course, if I'm not wrong, Haruna is more popular than Eu in Japan anyway...(Although, yeah, Tomonori is definitely Zombie's #1)

And seriously, 75% of the time ISML voters don't know what they're doing anyway other than voting for the same few people year in and year out.

Perhaps I overstating how well they actually do. I don't mean they always turn out to be super strong but 6th in a preliminary and near advancement to Round 2 is way better than the 35th/40th in preliminary that Black Rock Shooter gets.

Out of curiosity, I just then checked the national/regional demographic vote breakdown for each and every one of Mato's ISML 2012 Regular Season matches to date.

Do you know what I found? She has lost Japan in each and every one of them. :twitch:

Japan is the one and only country/region that has voted for Mato's opponent in each and every ISML 2012 match that Mato has been in to date. Against Gasai Yuno and Fear Kubrick, the only country/region that Mato lost was Japan.

Given this discovery of how downright frosty Japan is to Mato in ISML 2012, it now makes sense that Mato isn't doing that well in J-SaiMoe 2012.

Hachiko

2012-07-13, 20:59

Hallo, I'm back.

I think the BRS anime being a train wreck is the reason why Mato is not doing relatively well in Japan. A number of shows that are eligible in ISML and 2channel this year either do generally well in the former but not in the latter or vice versa. None of these characters are K-ON! quality (i.e. solid all around, as with 2010). The fans want a series that makes a lot of sense and is well thought out. The BRS anime didn't deliver on that, and this is your result.

stormtrooper

2012-07-13, 21:27

BRS anime is not that good. As to why she still is in ISML, maybe she had some sympathy from the voters around the world. Some people think she's moe enough.

Most of the time, the same people who have been in ISML are most likely voted for so yeah, it makes sense.

Coldlight

2012-07-13, 22:55

The BRS anime did have several issues. Not surprised that it isn't doing so well here. Not to mention the revamped character designs could have alienated the loyal fans of the original designs.

My picks:

<<黒雪姫（ブラック・ロータス）＠アクセル・ワールド>>
<<赤沢泉美＠Another>>
<<グリゼルダ・レギンハルト（ゼルダ）＠アスタロッテのおもちゃ! EX>>
<<ゆの＠ひだまりスケッチ×SP>>
<<藤堂つむぎ＠星空へ架かる橋 OVA>>
<<シャルロット・デュノア＠IS -インフィニット・ストラトス- アンコール恋に焦がれる六重奏>>
<<枸雅詩緒＠神様ドォルズ>>
<<近衛木乃香＠魔法先生ネギま! ANIME FINAL>>
<<日野日向＠未来日記>>
<<環凛子＠夏色キセキ>>

Also, it's interesting how characters from Ad Lib Anime Kenkyuujou were considered eligible. That show is hybrid live-action and animation, with slightly more screentime on the live-action parts.

Damn i just lazy to fix group 4 list like my cp list... and my imouto broke my internet before i get back my internet like 5 minutes ago...

B/c you didn't buy her enough imouto-kei games to keep her busy (Run)

Anyway, Nagi winning the group is not a total shocker, but the winning margin somewhat is. Iori gets the Kugyu boost (I mean, she is the origin of Kugimiya Disease), while a strong group prevents the like of Yozora going to main battle, for now.

Anyway, Group 4 is one of the weaker group out there, and my would be vote if not for the fact that I'm semi-block...

Mainly supporting Poplar and Hana

Another and Precure are no joke. They seem to want in as badly as everyone else. Shame at the one vote difference between 12th and 13th. Just one more vote for Yozora was all it needed.

To be honest at this rate I'm not gonna be too surprised if Cure March and Sunny passes via first prelims and surprised at Sherlock and Kokoro's performance dropped that low despite having a season 2 of Milky Holmes

Nagi placing first for Group 3... will she go far again this year? Neither entry from Haganai got in, it seems Yozora and Maria are probably the least liked of the female Neighbor's club members (and their respective rivals Sena and Kobato I expect to be more popular).

Here be my picks for Group 4:

Yeah I'm surprised at how well Another is doing, too.

Yozora should make it in in the second prelims, not that she'll do well in the main event...

Sniped, maybe, but bussed? It would take quite a match to bus the likes of Nagi.

Nagi vs Hinagiku vs *character as strong or stronger than Hinagiku*

It would pretty much have to be something like that.

Sniped, maybe, but bussed? It would take quite a match to bus the likes of Nagi.
Calling it now, the first match of the first round will be a Nagi/Hinagiku/Akarin/Toki four way on a day when Rie is hosting an all-day signing event on a cruise outside of wireless range, and 2ch will go down moments before Nagi's rush is scheduled to start.

I am shocked to learn about Nagi still being relevant. :twitch: At the same time, looking at everyone else qualified from the group -- it's not surprising anymore.

when Rie is hosting an all-day signing event on a cruise outside of wireless range, and 2ch will go down moments before Nagi's rush is scheduled to start. Lol, what a way to remove all the Rie fans from the equation. Something as crazy as that happening would get anybody bussed in a match. Support vanishing into thin air. :heh:

If Nagi wants to win, she better use this year wisely. If HnG 3 is going to come out this fall and on time, Nagi can capitalize it for the win. Of course, this is if she stays alive and does not get snipped or bussed early in the metagame.

Already called this earlier. Just sayin.

Results wise...

1. Poplar wins easily as expected. Clearly best girl in this group...
2. Kanna surprises me a little bit, as much as this group is weak. Now if Kanna can do this good, how will Ichika do? (I don't personally whether Kanna or Ichika is more popular, though...)
3. Sigh...Oshiroi...where's the love for the fujoshi?
4. And of course, Precure finish 2nd. Again, hard to tell with this group being weak, though
5. Teru rises but is still not quite at the top tier Saki girls level.

For next round...

Uh...what? Most surprising prelim results so far. I don't think anyone saw kanna's third place finish coming, peace getting second is also pretty unexpected.

More importantly... Ami getting sixth place just from an OVA restores my faith in saimoe voters.

Micchi

2012-07-15, 10:53

2-4-2 (21-12-5). Smile Precure seems to be doing a lot better than Precure series of the past few years. Didn't expect Kanna to get #3.

P1-5

Could Toki, Saki and Kana lead a Saki Top3 sweep? With so many Saki chars this group, it might just be possible... I think that Karen and possibly Chihaya could challenge for the 3rd spot.

Sana <3

A very heavy block this time around. Saki, Toki and Kana Ikeda for Saki, Idolmaster, and a LOT of MCs like Rea, Inori, Houki and Himeji. There's also Ritsu and Karen.

Coldlight

2012-07-15, 11:46

At least Kanna seems to be getting some love now. Can't believe I failed to spot Ami among Group 4's contestants earlier. orz

My picks for Group 5:
<<星宮社＠電波女と青春男真夜中の太陽>>
<<前川さん＠電波女と青春男真夜中の太陽>>
<<阿良々木火憐＠偽物語>>
<<安藤美雷＠いつか天魔の黒ウサギ>>

<<宮永咲＠咲-Saki- 阿知賀編 episode of side-A>>
<<散華礼弥＠さんかれあ>>
<<宮藤芳佳＠ストライクウィッチーズ劇場版>>
<<小鳥遊なずな＠WORKING'!!>>

Karen! Kanade! Rea!

Considering that Ranko got in from Group 4, I have high hopes for Rea as the titular ace of her series. I also expect Karen to grab her own spot, as one of the stars of Nisemonogatari. Since it was supposedly her and Tsukihi's show, she has to be much stronger now than she was for Bakemonogatari.

There is a bunch of saki here, but there are just as many girls who are also early top 12 material as well. I guess the question now is how many Saki girls are going to get in tomorrow? Two are definitely in, so I am going to guess three, just in case I miss someone.

I think the Saki girls will do just fine, with the third girl being in the top 12.

With all that Toki's been through -- no suprise on Toki. Whether or not she's snipe material -- that will be seen. And, it'd be cruel to snipe Toki.

Toki, as expected, win the group with ease. 333 votes is impressive, though, consider that there are only 661 valid codes in total (and it's not a given that each and everyone voted...), and this is a fairly competitive group.

Saki's vote total would gets her first place in any other group, with a margin similar to Group 2-4 1st place-2nd place difference. And the IM@S, well, at least they qualify...(What do people expect from them anyway? Outside of Iori, who was getting a LOT of Kugyu votes, non of them are anything more than average...)

Biggest disappointment is probably Inori. Not getting in via 1st prelim is one thing, getting only half of the votes compare to those that got in is another. When someone like Ikeda Chitose is pulling as many votes as you do, you're going nowhere, especially as a "main" heroine.

As far as the upcoming round...

THlS IS THE YEAR

Nope. Shana won her prelim group last year and you know what happen next...

6-1-3 (33-16-9). Mahomaho's 3rd place finish is good news for Mokkan. Nice to see Rika's still a popular pick.

Too bad Mokkan is probably the 3rd strongest HanaKana girl in her own group (After Kuroneko Chiaki and Karuta...there's is actually a Hanazawa quartet (maybe more...I don't keep track of minor roles) if Mayuri is also counted). Not to mention, Akarin, along with Papakiki's Hina, are also in that group. Not worry whether she'll qualify (b/c she will), but her group is definitely stronger than Misawa Aho's group...

As far as results goes, as expected, the group is more or less a battle between Shana and Taiga for top. Maho did good, Mayaka is about where she is, Rika didn't do bad either. Anonatsu continues to look pretty good with Mio finishing 9th.

For this group, even though it's not full moon, I don't see anyone challenging Koromo. It's not a weak group (Have some trouble deciding which 10), but Saki is on a different level so far and Koromo has always been strong (especially when assassination is not involved)

My would-be vote for this round:
<<西沢歩＠ハヤテのごとく! HEAVEN IS A PLACE ON EARTH>>
<<相生祐子（ゆっこ）＠日常>>
<<小鳥遊空＠パパのいうことを聞きなさい!>>
<<織田莱香（らいか）＠パパのいうことを聞きなさい!>>

<<永水女子の黒髪長髪の選手（石戸霞）＠咲-Saki- 阿知賀編 episode of side-A>> <- Damn you Kobayashi for not giving love to Eisui, Mikos are awesome!
<<倉嶋千百合＠アクセル・ワールド>>

EDIT: In another note, my record so far...
Group 1 - 7-3-0
Group 2 - 8-2-0
Group 3 - 8-2-0
Group 4 - 4-5-1
Group 5 - 6-4-0
Group 6 - 5-4-1
TOTAL (so far): 38-20-2

Seems like I'm just purely doing bad in weaker groups...(Which means, yeah, I'm screwed in Group 8 with that group being basically Marika v. Toshino Kyoko...)

Nice job by Shana and Taiga. Shana beat Saki for the second highest number of votes and Taiga only fell short by a bit. This group probably a fair bit weaker than the 5th group though.

NICE RESULT for someone today, good to see two semi-finalists have their day.

"Kodomo ja nai, Koromo da!!" I see The Koromo is still going strong. A certain yandere and a certain yangire also got in. Is psycho-moe one of the themes for group 7? :heh:

Subaru getting in is good news for me. Ayumu too, as my favorite Hayate girl.

But for My Lovely Ghost Yuuko-san, she has to undergo yet another gauntlet of equally hungry challengers jostling for a spot in the main tourney... :uhoh:

To summarize the first half:

- Shana and Taiga still look strong in Group 6
- Saki, Koromo, Saki-Achiga, Toki are setting the pace as the team to beat this year. (Especially with Ako powering up past Toki's previous high vote total to win group 8)
- In addition to Shana and Taiga, Toshino Kyouko is the first sign of competition not representing Saki. It helps that YuruYuri is current so it may help her chances.

As for my choices advancing to the main tournament:
(1) Chitanda Eru, Kataoka Yuuki, Haruna, Shinobu, Miu Takanashi
(2) Matsumi Yuu, Ika, Elucia, Fear Kubrick
(3) Sanzen'in Nagi, KuroYukiHime, Yuno, Charlotte Dunois, Akazawa Izumi, Kanzaki H. Aria, Airi, Chinatsu Yoshikawa
(4) Kanna Tanigawa, Teru
(5) Toki, Karen Araragi, Miyafuji Yoshika
(6) Maho, Huang, Aoi Ogiyama, Mio Kitahara, Kusnoki Yukimura
(7) Amae Koromo, Konoe Subaru, Takanashi Sora, Shimada Minami, Nishizawa Ayumu, Nakagawa Kanon
(8) Atarashi Ako, Toshino Kyouko, Katou Marika, Madoka Kyouno

Looks like season 2 helped Kyouko out, or is Kyouko actually more popular than I give credit for, beating Toki's high score and all? Ako becomes the next person to beat in terms of high vote counts. Saki really does look like the team to beat with their army just beginning to assemble itself.
