The puella magi are still strong but Nibutani sneaking in between them confirms that Chu2koi will play an important role this year. The strongest player for the Kyoani faction since K-On! 2010. I like both so this result makes me happy.
I'm also glad to see Tacos and Buchou up there. Anzu 8th, more or less as expected. For GuP, it's going to be the Miho-Yukari duo or nothing. And finally Ran gets to go to 2nd prelims by one vote. Yes, that makes my vote feel useful. |

Good to see Homura, Hisa, Yuuki, Mio, Yuiko and Kagami advance to the next round.
Kinda sad to see Io and Leticia didn't make it straight to the main round. My votes for today Group 9 will be as followed: Spoiler for Preliminary Round 1 Group 9 votes:

One thing I don't like about the Saimoe web site is that their twitter feeds are displaying inaccurate results. I mean, you'd think they had already verified every online precinct before displaying them on twitter, but they did not. Major gripe from my perspective.

Mikoto 1st and Asuna 2nd. Asuna was my favorite out of all the girls but I find this to be a reasonable result. Mikoto obviously has more popularity and personality than Asuna and I can see how this turned out. TT_TT it just hurts though. Muh waifu didn't win LOOOOOL

9-1-0
Spoiler for Preliminary 1-8 Results:
My Top 10 for Preliminary 1-9: Spoiler for Preliminary 1-9:
Strong showing by Homura but it looks like she's going to have to work for a Saimoe victory when she probably would have trounced everyone (in a fair fight) two years ago. I guess it's better to have a competitive Saimoe.

A 9-1-0 round. Homuhomu won as expected, but Mori-sama is showing Kyoani can never be count out. Only other "surprise" is I guess Akiko doing better than I thought she would (But then, the girls below her are not, well, exactly strong).
Onto "2nd half". This group is average with a few fairly strong girls. But then, Lovely My Angel is in this group and that's all I care about. <<新垣あやせ@俺の妹がこんなに可愛いわけがない。>> (Aragaki Ayase@Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai.) <<琴浦春香@琴浦さん>> (Kotoura Haruka@Kotoura-san) <<ニャル子@這いよれ! ニャル子さんW>> (Nyaruko@Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W) <<小鳥遊美羽@パパのいうことを聞きなさい!>> (Takanashi Miu@Papa no Iu Koto wo Kikinasai!) <<五河琴里@デート・ア・ライブ>> (Itsuka Kotori@Date A Live) <<早倉舞衣@フォトカノ>> (Sakura Mai@Photokano) <<池田華菜@咲-Saki- 阿知賀編 episode of side-A>> (Ikeda Kana@Saki: Achiga-hen episode of side-A) <<花田煌@咲-Saki- 阿知賀編 episode of side-A>> (Hanada Kirame@Saki: Achiga-hen episode of side-A) <<雪村あおい@ヤマノススメ>> (Yukimura Aoi@Yama no Susume) <<泉こなた@宮河家の空腹>> (Izumi Konata@Miyakawa-ke no Kuufuku)

And really, it's purely sheer number that makes Saki tough anyway. Last year you have the old dominant group (Nonoka, Tacos, Kodomo) and the new dominant group (Toki, Kuro, Yuu, and maybe Subara), which is more than enough to guarantee 4-5 spots even with a bad draw anyway. And MadoMagi, well, you still have to lament the fact that Homuhomu went against Biribiri first round, Biribiri getting all the helps from fakes, and 2011 is an overall down year (No Kyoani show (Okay, there's Nichijou...), no "eternal" series like Nanoha/Hayate. What else is there anyway? Oreimo, Ika-Musume, and ehh...okay, Index S2. I mean, the only true BS loss is Kuroneko v. Kyouko anyway)

Personally I actually hate the Saki faction and Puella Magi is I like them but not at the level I want them to over dominate. The factions I would be fine with over domination has low chance of doing it minus Garupan and Rozen Maiden (that one we have to wait til 2014 to see if they can do it again). Well Precure is possible if a Precure that is 10,000 times more moe than Smile Precure airs.

Honestly, I had hoped that the Love Live! girls might have done a bit better. My big hope was Saki vs. Madoka Magica vs. Girls und Panzer vs. Love Live! vs. some strong stand-out individual performers (like Mori Summer). That would have been pretty fun and free-wheeling, but also might have had a nice "pro sports" feel to it with SaiMoe fans picking different "teams".

But who cares, Ayase is more awesome than Kuroneko anyway (Kuroneko is still more kawaii and moe, but Ayase's chemistry with Kyousuke is what makes me laugh the most in Oreimo) Quote:
GuP is simply disappointing so far. The strength of 2nd tier GuP girls, as of right now, is closer to 3rd tier Saki girls strength. I guess they are going to relied on Miho and Akiyama-dono... LL is doing okay. They're about where I expected them to be anyway. Of course, personally I don't know the strength of each individual LL girl (to the point that I don't know who's their "top gun", Umi?) On a side note, Yuruyuri is still strong. Will see whether Akarin and Toshino Kyouko exert revenge this year. Haganai is doing good also (Although, yeah, Yozora has the luck to be in a very weak group while 3 others are bunch together in the same group...). Oreimo is about the same (Kuroneko lose to Toki, yeah, but Toki is the champ last year and quite frankly, Saki dominate. Kirino people still don't like, Manami is average since that's what she is, and will see whether Ayase dominate this group or not). And there's one more popular series in SAO, with their 4 top guns (Asuna, Suguha, Yui, Silica) having to wait until Group 14-16.

Saki also has a lot of characters, of course, but the original cast was built up in one show while the Achiga-hen cast was built up in their own show. So each cast was manageable in its own show, and had a chance to shine in its own show. Quote:
