Funny how I only discover the Final 8 MAD after the final 8 has concluded. At the 12-second mark, they show a split-second of the Animesuki forums! You can see KaneDragon's Hinagiku sig! You're famous!

hate to dig this back up.. but ...

I'm famous too!!!

Will show my support for Nagisa in the upcoming semi-final. I will vote Kagami and expect her to win as well, but I don't want Nagisa to get blown apart by her like the other Clannad girls. For best effect, play video and view pics while listening to the music. Nagisa...

thats funny... I always do enjoy the piano and music box and other similar verisons of theme songs... but I have never actualyl seen a REAL music box with one.



As for the Cirno vid... my favorite part is Keine's perfect heatbutt... and that Sakuya has a nosebleed in the bus parts.

What's with the hate? See I barely know of Fuuko's character and can ditch Tsukasa for Kagami any second, but all this elitism talk, remind me of reading the notorious World of Warcraft forum:

"WoW sucks because it's popular!"

Saimoe is a joke/fail because your favored character doesn't have the upperhand? Gee, The world does NOT revolve around you, news at 11.

Get out of the basement and realize each character is liked and supported by their fans, for reasons nobody can judge. We're talking about off peak time Japanese cartoons, not Avant-Garde, so keep the "my dad is cooler than your dad" mentality out. Keep your "certain char=moeblob=retard" opinion to yourself, or stop stating them like facts.

Do you see me post on the internet something like "Hina is just another one of your typical everyday tsundere who's rtardedly in love with a cross-dressing otherwise typical harem male lead" to make myself look cool and different?

Today will be tough match.Everyone expect Kagamin win but I still have a hope.

Responding to a couple Hina supporters on previous page, too lazy to quote them all :P

That was very sweet. Thank you. Agreed, Nagisa is

And the number of pictures/video duration worked out perfectly for me.

I want one of those music boxes.

Ah, well, I'm too used to the tired old "retard/moeblob" hate to spend the mental energy keeping it within my attention span. Sometimes it's just not worth arguing.

^-^ Thanks. Also thanks for organizing them all this time. Supporting your favourites is fun when done collectively. It feel great to look back on all those previous rushes~

Oye, NOT being a fanboy helps. For example, I sure love Shana, but Suiseiseki pretty much having the upper advantage every single time prior to 2007 had me actually watching the Rozen Maiden series and that in turn led me to appreciate her character, even though my favorite went downhill.

Then again, I am still a typical anime noob, somewhat...

[Sheba]

The contrary occured to me, I watched RM and could not see what was so special about it. Maybe the problem was the very presence of Io*i E in my chatroom who could not keep quiet about it, hyped it, urged people to watch it to the point it looked like he was nagging. So maybe the overhype killed it for me. Or was it like in the french saying, "You may drag a donkey to a stream, you can not force him to drink."

Saimoe 2007 got me to notice and ultimately watch Higurashi, which turned out to be pretty awesome with a lot of moe girls. This year, a lot of people are urging me to watch HnG now.

So you know where this is going, right ?
