Anime Saimoe Tournament 2009 (Japan)

[Kyuu]

Tacos? I wonder if the Japanese are aware of the pink variety.

[NissanNut]

I noticed that the winning posters on the thread for A02, A05, A08, A11 weren't the original size. I hope Frustra doesn't feel like I'm stepping on his toes...
Here's the originals:

[NissanNut]

0-3... A third place finisher and two in last place.
I don't even know why I voted for Sugino Ayumu...
I should have voted for Kasukabe Misao.
None of the matches were really close.
Not a very good tournament for me thus far
Well, one of picks should advance, right?

Spoiler for My picks:

A03
<<小早川ゆたか＠らき☆すたOVA>> (Kobayakawa Yutaka @ Lucky☆Star OVA)

A06
<<マカ＝アルバーン＠ソウルイーター>> (Maka Albarn @ Soul Eater)

A09
<<片岡優希＠咲 -Saki->> (Kataoka Yuuki (Tacos) @ Saki)

3+1 rush: 2x Yutaka, 2x taco. All times nailed.

Still wish we had more people from last year rushing, though... Looking at the "on-time record" list from last year, I see "margafred, RenaDansen, Neutralizer, KaneDragon, Todkapuz, Kirino, Toast". Newt I know has connection issues...

[neutralizer]

Results
Predictions: 4-0 (6-2)
Picks: 3-1 (4-4)

Hey, my ratio instantly got better by predicting all of the last round correctly. Awesome.

Bolded are picks, italics are predictions.

Group A03
<<柚原このみ＠ToHeart2 ad シリーズ>> (Yuzuhara Konomi @ ToHeart2 ad series)
<<シロ＠我が家のお稲荷さま。>> (Shiro @ Wagaya no Oinari-sama.)
<<小早川ゆたか＠らき☆すたOVA>> (Kobayakawa Yutaka @ Lucky☆Star OVA)
<<キャル・ディヴェンス＠Phantom ～Requiem for the Phantom～>> (Cal Devens @ Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~)

Moe attempted assassin loli is moe. But Yutaka will still take it with the waning LS power.

Group A06
<<マカ＝アルバーン＠ソウルイーター>> (Maka Albarn @ Soul Eater)
<<朽木ルキア＠BLEACH>> (Kuchiki Rukia @ BLEACH)
<<ミーナ・ディートリンデ・ヴィルケ＠ストライクウィッチーズ>> (Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke @ Strike Witches)
<<フローラ・スカイブルーム（アラン・ネイスミス）＠バスカッシュ!>> (Flora Skybloom (Alan Naismith) @ Basquash!)

Hoping on the strength of Strike Witches on this one. Maka may provide an upset. Rukia has no chance just because it's Bleach.

Group A09
<<ゲルトルート・バルクホルン＠ストライクウィッチーズ>> (Gertrud Barkhorn @ Strike Witches)
<<片岡優希＠咲 -Saki->> (Kataoka Yuuki (Tacos) @ Saki)
<<天条院沙姫＠To LOVEる>> (Tenjouin Saki @ To-LOVE-Ru)
<<明石薫＠絶対可憐チルドレン>> (Akashi Kaoru @ Zettai Karen Children)

Inb4SakicharacterswinSaimoe. Seriously, the prelims showed their strength and I don't think Gertrud has the power to beat a Saki character. Regardless, I still <3 her.

Group A12
<<北条國子＠シャングリ・ラ>> (Houjou Kuniko @ Shangri-La)
<<ほしな歌唄（月詠歌唄）＠しゅごキャラ! シリーズ>> (Hoshina Utau (Tsukiyomi Utau) @ Shugo Chara! series)
<<オクタヴィア＠ティアーズ・トゥ・ティアラ>> (Octavia @ Tears to Tiara)
<<音無芽留＠【獄・】さよなら絶望先生>> (Otonashi Meru @ Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei)

Utau is pretty strong, but I found Octavia absolutely moe and hot in Tears to Tiara. Zettai ryouiki ftw.

[Aya Reiko]

My votes: Walking Pillar of Moe, Rukia, Tacos, Utau

My Prediction: Walking Pillar of Moe, M-D, Tacos, Utau

Updated brackets with all match dates included:

This whole remote business is getting annoying

nope, not at all. in fact, thank you for providing these. the initial ones posted by "Tomoyo" (the one providing the pics) in 2ch were the smaller versions, so those were the ones i put up first.

Spoiler for interim count:

A03: Yutaka 442, Cal 137, Shuri 83, Konomi 73
A06: Minna 452, Maka 100, Rukia 60, Flora 38
A09: Tacos 532, Gertrud 129, Saki 44, Kaoru 43
A12: Utau 414, Meru 91, Octavia 89, Kuniko 74,

fake votes or not, the outcome of today's matches is pretty much decided.

Ouch, beatdown....
Well, let's see what the real count is, but I agree with Frustra. Looks like I'll finally do better than 0 or 1.

highest vote of the day 1
didn't get it right 0+1=1

Sunohara Mei win over Last Order for today's overall votes. So Lelouch's Little sister have enough power afterall.

My picks for Round 1-3
A03 Kobayakawa Yutaka [p1-04] (she's still the best cute little girl out in Lucky Star)
A06 Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke [f-03] (Okay, have to join the bandwagon of Astro Girl)
A09 Kataoka Yuuki (Tacos) [f-04] (I continued watching Saki, and proclaimed she might have a chance on eliminating anyone in this group as long she is charged with Tacos)
A12 Hoshina Utau (Tsukiyomi Utau) [p1-05] (I hate her for kissing Yukito but we really need to accept the fact she's a good singer with Nana Mizuki as her VA)

the character that would top the votes in all groups for today is Kataoka Yuuki aka Tacos.

4-0 no doubt despite the results are not yet final that Tacos dominate everyone.

Round 1 current stats
PR2 [my pick that made it into the second round] 3+2=5
FR2 [my force pick that made it into the second round] 1+2=3
OR2 [overall pick that made it into second round] 5+3=8
H [Highest vote of the day] 1+1=2

PE [my pick eliminated from SaiMoe] 3 [Asuna, Ashakura, Ran]
FE [force pick eliminated from SaiMoe] 1 [Kitsu Chiri]
OE [overall pick eliminated from SaiMoe] 4
XH [Wrong prediction of highest vote of the day] 1

A powercast dominates the round.

My picks for Round 1-4
B01 [p1-01] Horo (Maybe Lawrence would change his mind and take on her offer)
B04 [p1-02] Yuno (Bath sessions are overwhelming)
B07 [f-05] Perinne Clostermann (An unknown force pick can't help it)
B10 [p2-24] Allison Whittington (Okay next year Saimoe would be Hitagi, last chance for her to show off the piloting skills)

Highest Vote Horo

[frustra]

Yutaka, Minna, Yuuki and Utau won.

Day 3 Winners' posters + extra material



4-0 (11-1) in predictions, and 1-3 (4-8) in picks. That went as expected, and Gertrud just couldn't keep up with the power of Tacos ;_; well, that's okay i guess, as Minna dominated. Octavia and Cal losing is also sad, but at least they put up a valiant effort. I'm fine with all the characters that won today, anyway.

That concludes group A, onward to Day 4, and first matches of group B.

Anime SaiMoe Tournament 2009, Day 4:

Time for my number two for this year's Saimoe, Yuno, to take the stage, and she's up against Prelim Group 17's topnotcher Tsugumi. However, I'm still confident that Yuno can make it through, since the group Tsugumi topped didn't feature many strong contenders from the past and present, as opposed to Yuno who had to contend with Kyou and Hanyuu.

Horo and Perrine should have no problem in their matches, and Miki should win her match through series mojo.

Curiously, my picks and predictions coincide today. So Horo, Yuno, Perrine and Miki it is.

[Umandsf]

Well, with Yutaka's win, I'm now 1-2. Unfortunately, I don't have anyone to vote for, as I've seen none of these characters. @_@ Oh, well.

[chizunyan]

damn, gertrud just really unlucky meet tacos on the first round ;_;
