Anime Saimoe Tournament 2008 (Japan)

[DragoonKain3]

Lol. 4/4 so far in block finals of j-moe. Wow, so weird having j-moe follow my moe tastes more closely than k-moe did during the top 16 lol. XD

Today, Tamaki for sure, because of the remaining contestants she is the one person I want most to win. And of course, considering none of the Aria girls never really caught my interest (Aria = zzzzz), then it's Tsukasa.

[Liddo-kun]

2/2 Today, but somehow I don't feel happy.
Maybe it's the left-over despair from yesterday.

Today it's obviuos by my sig that my support is for Shana!



Annoying I.P bans, 2 of my friends who are Shana fans can't vote anymore.

save this link: http://find.2ch.net/?STR=%A5%A2%A5%C...=TITLE&BBS=ALL

it will help a lot

Also, if you go to the Synchroom (Yes, Virginia, I'm actually keeping it up to date now ^_^ ) and click the link for the main voting thread. If that particular link is over 1000 or larger than 512k, just go back to the Synchroom and, under the current voting thread, there's a link to the main room... All you have to do is scroll down past the ads and look for this:

アニメ最萌トーナメント2008 投票スレRound### (###)

Where the Round### is whatever thread number it happens to be on (it's usually in the first line b/c people never sage correctly on 2ch, but that's another story for another time) and the (###) is how many posts are in the thread. Just click on that and it will take you to another section in that post. It will have a few entries for that thread, so just scroll down until you see the box where you can type stuff. you can either vote there or click the link directly below it. It looks like this:

That will take you to the thread directly. You can then scroll all the way to the bottom and put your vote in.

However it is usually an ISML thread with only a few rarer Saimoe threads.)

I haven't looked but there may be some saimoe threads over in /jp/ which is PROBABLY the place they SHOULD be, but Ida know...

If so, miracles do exist.

Not so much the former.

Oh god.... who the hell would marry him......

Also.....the total number of Japanese voters are far more than total number of non-Japanese ppl for this year's saimoe.Its just normal for western's pick to loose in this tournament if all those Japanese voters decided to vote together and pick a choice that is completely different than the western ppl's choice..coz if they really do it together,no one will be able to defeat their votes down.

Maybe some of them are reading in this thread,laughing at those who blames the Japanese for making them despair.

tl;dr - win and loose is common in a tournament.Don't take it too hard.
tl;dr: Elevens think they're superior to everybody else so they just laugh and poke fun of the gaijins and go about doing what they want to do...

I fixed that for you ^_^

[Proto]

So I guess all the slice of life lovers can now rally behind Akari. Tsukasa is probably my favorite Lucky Star character, but still ARIA is ARIA, the best thing since water and sliced bread.

That is just being paranoid though I doubt anyone cares about what a minority of less than 200 voters do. And even if we were to count in last year's final comeback of Rika, last year's result was the product of the japanese vote count being so close in the first place, so at least half of the Japanese voters should be happy. It all cancels out.

lol... you really ARE 'Hopelessly Optimistic', aren't you －_^
Nah, they really ARE quite prejudiced. Not ALL of them, mind you, but the large majority is. And, like over here, Anonymous over there is ALWAYS prejudiced... ^_^

Round 4

A Success

Reaction
Mikan tried her best but Kirino won the battle. Miyako put up a good fight but in the end Tomoyo overcome her.

Picks for next round (Group E and G finals)
E Tamaki Kawazoe (This will be one of her great battles to overcome with Kirino advancing, she have to pull her great kendo style to beat Shana-tan)
G Tsukasa Hiiragi (For she have beaten Nagi, Vinegar deserve to be in the final 8 once again.)

[X10A_Freedom]

Provided I get a code, I'll be voting for my favourate all-time character - Akari.

[npal]

Ok, finally voted for Tamaki and Tsukara.

Geh, Shana will be tough to beat... Hopefully Tama-chan will win with her superior kendo and moe skills. Don't really care about the ARIA-LS match, but I seriously doubt Akari can secure my vote in any case in future matches.

Yes, Tamaki is in the lead!

I'm surprised Akari is ahead of Tsukasa right now. I doubt she will stay in the lead

I think I checked /jp/ and /c/, there was nothing when I checked. Only /a/.

[hirahira]

[Ithekro]

.../a/ which is going on a Akari thread verses a Tsukasa thread.

/jp/ and /c/ are devoid of Saimoe.
