Don't haten. Why not Support Tsukasa too? (that is a serious question BTW)

Whaaa, I'm still waiting for YesY to sub 26 before I start on 25...


@ Mad Dog
Well it's not so much I dislike Tsukasa, so much as she's not very special to me. Honestly though, if anyone wins, I'll be satisfied, as the two other dolls are out of it.

Go watch 25, 26 is more of epilogue anyway.

Unless things turn nightmarish and its a Nanoha Louise final I give the White Devil my regards but probably not the vote.

looks like we found some common ground. We would both vote for anyone against louise.

I've been saying that ever since she beat Otaha and Karen in round 1.

I knew we'd find some common ground eventually. Pretty strange, but Nanoha wasn't one of my favorite characters from the series for some reason or another. And before you know it all the other ones are gone leaving her behind.

Just hope the finals don't turn out to be like the Survivor show. Pick the character you least dislike not the one you find the most moe. Agree about 26, it's not really worth waiting for 25 is the big episode at the finish.

[Hasako]

Flare night just out of curiosity who do u think is most moe??

[wa-totem]

I just noticed... let's assume qtrfinals are won by bold:
1. Rena vs Nanoha
2. Nagi vs. Konata
3. Rika vs Louise
4. Shinku vs. Tsukasa
After this, both semis will be LS vs Higurashi... AND there's a good chance that in such case, the final would end up being LS vs Higurashi AGAIN, namely Rena vs Tsukasa xD

LS/Higurashi ownage? LOL

Even Mad Dog is in agreement

Should we start a anti-Louise alliance? We vote for whoever's favorite against Louise. No matter who it is

[Deathkillz]

it a dam shame that all the good characters arent getting their rightful spot in the final...

taking substituted i would say that most characters in the top 8 got the either 1) they recieved no attention and somehow managed to stealth their way in, whilst the highly praised characters killed each other 2) goddam luck matchups

some of the characters i would never have thought would make it to the final whereas some i am just dammed that didnt make it.

if we think about HnG i would say that maria or hina would have been the obvious choice rather than nagi.

LS - kagami > kona or tsukasa

fate chan > nanoha (unlucky match up for fate chan in this case).

gin sama > shinku or desu.

the higurashi girls im fine with but in terms of a spunky ass kicking loli shana would have been the obvious choice as opposed to louise...

inbou...

At least it's the most obvious outcome. But who knows... this SaiMoe is full of surprises already. Let's hope this time the surprises keep at bay .


That's why it's my "Perfect Case Scenario". It has beatifully reached to its conclusion: every Higurashi and LS character in different matches.

[Psieye]

Question: was that "Pick 8 out of all losers of Rounds 1~3" exhibition match today or tomorrow?

[Seishi]

Wow, what an uncharacteristically angry post from DKZ. I think Fate supports, and most other people finally got tired of Suigintou; I know I'm definitely in this group. Don't feel bad, Shinku will serve her some consolation tea. Also, Louise is just fodder now, yeah.

I guess I'll do my predictions now, then.

Nanoha
Nagi
Rika
Shinku

And my votes would be...the same. Well, isn't that convenient.

If it was just related to the Nanoha series I'd probably stick with Fate. Appreciated the depth of her character and past. Everything put together just put her as a solid moe in my mind. Probably would slip Vita into the second slot and see where things settled.

If I had a top 3 that I would've voted for the championship without doubts they'd be Gin, Fate, and Runa. Still some good characters left so all is not lost.

It is indeed a dark time when we are all in agreement on this . Louise has stirred forces that had best been left at rest .

[Sheba]

But who knows... this SaiMoe is full of surprises already.

50:50 in term of good and bad surprises. Even tho I was mentally prepared for the expected bad surprises (Mai's and Kagami's defeats, I was mentally prepared to them, Fate's I was not). But never the good surprises has been so sweeeeeet!

hmmm id like to join this ant-louise alliance since it helps rika win

and also i was was looking for a vote rena for saimoe but all i could fins was the same was as yours orange.a i hope ur not mad if i use it??

[Psieye]

OMG Vibeke? You posted 290 Louise images?? XDXD

I think you've singlehandedly beaten the whole of 2ch again. ^^;; Love how you just gave up and posted a link in 2ch to the Wiki thread after a while XD

We really need to get .zip batches thought of. I'll see what I can do offline before Qtr Finals begin.

[Branduil]

Wow this tournament has certainly turned out to be a disappointment.

At this point I just hope someone besides the LS characters or Louise wins.

dont worry im pretty sure that atleast one higurashi chara will make it to finals and has a good chance at winning

[otacu]

Notice how last year Top 8 had at least 4 non-loli and the majority were "side characters".

This year is the total opposite. Loli and main characters.

Well that would be the best-case scenario.

Rena is probably my preferred choice now.
