Mixed feelings. Love Hisa. Don't love the -Saki- dominance. Well, actually at this point I kind of just want to go with it. Let's break some more records, -Saki-.
Hinata Hakamada @ Ro-Kyu-Bu!: <<袴田ひなた@ロウきゅーぶ!>>
Louise De La Valliere @ Zero's Familiar: <<ルイズ・フランソワーズ・ル・ブラン・ド・ラ・ヴァリエール@ゼロの使い魔F>>
This match I think is extremely close.

I'm not even sure if Louise is a greater threat to them than Hinata. Actually, neither of them really are a threat to speak of in the first place.

Not handing Subara the keys to my Subaru this time. She got her test drive, and that's all she's going to get.

Calling Kirame a Kuroko clone is like calling Tacos a Shana clone. The only thing they really have in common is their VAs.
What I like is about Kirame is that she's both optimistic and realistic at the same time. The only reason Teru didn't just outright beat everyone is because Kirame actually took the initiative and confronted her, again and again. Meanwhile Kuro just sat there, afraid to adapt until the very last second.
And by the way, I hate you for your lame Kirame Subaru jokes.
Now every time I drive by that Subaru place on my way into town, I can't help but think "すばらっ!" It doesn't help that the Subaru logo is all sparkly, either.

It's been getting gradually more and more restrictive over the years, starting after 2007, I think.
However, I don't think the lack of diversity will end the IP ban. Despite complaints from some people, -Saki- is winning because the majority of the 2ch community is voting for it. Some may complain about the lack of diversity, but even more would probably complain about a bunch of outsiders flooding in and, in overwhelming numbers, voting for characters that aren't that popular among the 2ch community. Which is what used to happen and why they started the ban in the first place. Probably.
Still, though, I don't get it. I live in Japan and I'm banned. What does one have to do to
not be banned?
