Mori Summer wins with 64% vote rate. By far, the highest this year (Yozora is 2nd with 55%). She's confirmed as strong candidate to win the group.
Mako also wins despite the vote split with Darjeeling. Some relief for GuP. I hope Rikka will do well tomorrow. |

Expected winners all around. Shinka blasts her opponents pretty hard. Darjeeling did pretty well despite Mako being in the match. Tsukihi has less trouble winning that I thought she would while Kuuko has more.
Matches: C03 C06 C09 C12 Back in the day, Kagami would be the favourite in this match and Ika Musume would need everything she had to keep up. These days Kagami would do well to stay out of last place. Niko is decent while her opponents aren't. Should be an easy match. In a better group Aoi would be a good choice for advancement but she shouldn't be able to stop Kyouko netting Madoka their 26th straight win. After a 0-2 start, Madoka is already up to a 25-2 record. That's pretty amazing. Rikka probably has at least an outside chance to win the whole tournament. Shinka already made Chuunibyou look good and Rikka will want to put up a big win here to continue that trend. Votes: Hiiragi Kagami Yazawa Niko Sakura Kyouko Takanashi Rikka Predictions: Ika Musume Yazawa Niko Sakura Kyouko Takanashi Rikka

I think you're going to continue to see these low vote totals unless a Saki and/or Madoka girl is involved. There are a few strong individual performers like Mori Summer, but they don't attract antis like strong Saki and/or Madoka girls do, and it's not likely that these strong individual performers will face each other often if at all.

Today is a special day. Got hold of my code but won't vote first. I'll edit the post later when I've voted.
Can't decide to vote for Minami Chiaki or Futaba Aoi. Need to see how these 2 girls fare. EDIT: Heck, couldn't be bothered waiting so here are my votes for today! <<イカ娘@侵略!!イカ娘>> <<矢澤にこ@ラブライブ!>> <<二葉あおい@ビビッドレッド・オペレーション>> <<小鳥遊六花@中二病でも恋がしたい!>> You got a typo. It's Masuzu not Maxuzu

Looking at the vote tracker I suspect a good amount of fake votes. People guiding Aoi to upset Kyouko or MadoMagi supporters trying to lure more votes for Kyouko. Whichever way Kyouko already had her chance at the championship in 2011 so I'll support Aoi here.

Especially not since you barely mentioned her half as much as you mentioned Toki, let alone singled out any faction or character you wanted to win that wasn't Saki or Toki, respectively. Especially during this recent exchange of ours. Until I brought up this point. Quote:
But then, one can also argue that the hate wouldn't have existed had Saki not been that strong to begin with. Saki would at least be on MadoMagi's level, but not lower. And it could also be people like you that cause Saki to win in the end anyway. Also, fake votes are not considered legit votes in general. Sympathy votes are. Quote:

Somehow I feel that the reduced voter base is screwing up everybody's predictions. Oh wait, they already have. And get my username right D: Quote:

About the part of your post I didn't quote, don't worry, if MadoMagi wins this year we'll all jump ship to Saki next year. Quote:

Result...
Spoiler for Day 9:
3-1 day brings me to 30-6 at the end of Group C. I really need to stop thinking that Minami-ke is even capable of upsetting girls like they did way back... Rikka, Niko, and Ika-chan take care of business, while as hard as people try to use Aoi to knock Kyouko out here, Aoi is just not strong at all to start with... Onto Group D. The matchup are not all that interesting today, so we'll see whether we even get 300 votes. Oh well, the Saki madness of Group D starting tomorrow (Although I'm 100% sure D03 will pissed me off just b/c it involved my most behated Saki girl and one of my personal favorite in Rika) D01: Pick: Harapan, Predict: Kotori. All 4 are very average with Yui finishing ahead of Suzuno in 1st Prelim Group 1 while Kotori is ahead of Manami in 1st Prelim Group 4. Since it's hard to tell whether Manami got a boost or not, I'll just give the group to Kotori. D04: Pick: Inaban, Predict: Hanayo. Another weak group. Hanayo is the weakest "main" LL girl, but HS DxD is never impressive in AST. Inaban? Oh well, people forget about her already... D07: Pick/Predict: Shibuya Takami. Only b/c Saki is usually the safe bet in an ultra weak group. D10: Pick/Predict: Touka. The only group of today that is at least decent. Touka v. Misaki is interesting only b/c I would say they're equally average in strength.

Once again things went as expected. None of the winners were all that close to losing. Ika Musume, Niko, Kyouko and Rikka all won easily. If Sayaka wins, Madoka will tie the Saki streak with 27 consecutive wins.
Matches: D01 D04 D07 D10 D01 has a bunch of midcarders taking the stage. Kotori looked to have the strongest preliminary performance of the four so I have her winning. Everyone in D04 has a chance of losing to everyone in D01. Asia got in through first preliminaries so I expect her to win. I would have had Takami winning the third match but Saki hasn't looked very good. Yuka has a very good chance to win the match. Shokuhou Misaka looked good in preliminaries but I think that's because she was in the same group as Misaka Mikoto. I haven't seen the Index movie but she's cited as being from Railgun and has around 3 minutes of screentime total. I'm calling a Touka victory here. Votes: Kotegawa Yui Asia Argento Uchida Yuka Yatogami Tooka Predictions: Minami Kotori Asia Argento Uchida Yuka Yatogami Tooka

Mado. I thought others already have said it but anyway, I don't wanna talk about it anymore. >.>

If you still cannot believe me I have nothing to say. It's just a pity she face Sayaka in the same block. What can I do about it? NOTHING. Quote:
Well but to me it still go against the practice of Saimoe. Quote:
Quote:
Heck even my previous point can come into theory: Saki voter base are just too volatile, hence susceptible to snipe attempts. Quote:
I mean come on, I was shell-shocked when Coldlight said it was a bad attempt to provoke him when in the first place I have no intention to. I just forgot she's drawn with Sayaka. So what are you trying to tell me? I can't support Eru just because she's in the same block as Sayaka? Heck, even if Eru is in the same block as Toki I'll still support her. It's just that I see absolutely NO CHANCE for Eru to win hence I didn't specifically state it in my sig or whatsoever(I only started to show my support when you gone too far and said I was NBS). There is just NO WAY Eru is gonna able to overthrow Mado AND Saki + whoever out there capable winning the tourney. Even then, I'll continue to support her. Bear in mind though, I have always supported Eru no matter what tourney she's in. I did that in ISML and I don't see why I can't do it here too. Even in ISML her chance of winning is nil yet I still support her even if she's up against top seeds girls like Mashiro/Ruri/Kanade etc... I just felt insulted that I couldn't support my favorite girl just because she's drawn into a group that has more supporters. I didn't insult your girl at all so I hope you'll leave mine alone. Already stated a few times that I'm indeed supporting her and not to pick a fight and yet people still don't believe? It's just absurd. Quote:
As ironic as it sounds, as I indeed said before that everyone's definition of moe is different, you didn't see me rage like a barbarian at anyone when they state their opinion about moe. Sure we do argue quite a bit but I see it as an exchange of viewpoints and pointers since this is a forum. Everyone is entitled to say what moe is to them and if we find it unable to comprehend, we talk it out. Ultimately solutions in the end is always to respect other's viewpoints of what moe is or accept their reasoning or convince them(if one managed to do it of course) which I have been doing no? My votes for today! <<南ことり@ラブライブ!>> <<アーシア・アルジェント@ハイスクールD×D>> <<渋谷尭深@咲-Saki- 阿知賀編 episode of side-A>> <<夜刀神十香@デート・ア・ライブ>> Damn! Couldn't decide to vote for Suzuno or Kotori T.T End up I went for Kotori. Poor Suzuno.

4/4 on prediction making it 34-2 Niko-Erika match was bittersweet.
Prediction- Kotori, Hanayo, Misaki, Regina (well the other 2 are just background characters while Regi is the top gun of her series) Picks- Kotori, Hanayo, Touka, Regina |

Nice to see a Love Live! girl win, and win big!
I have no pretensions that Love Live! can be a major player in this, but it's still good to see them do decently well at least. Good to see Kyouko win, though it was expected. Squid Girl has retained more of her 2011 strength-level than I had expected. I now honestly wonder if she might defeat Mori Sommer in the next round. Rikka remains a slight favorite to win her block, as she made clear with her strong performance in the opening round.

Kyouko keeps the streak alive. Not that her win was unexpected, but it's reassuring to me that the PMMM girls are still very, very much capable. Now, only Sayaka's awaited performance remains to keep the girls complete for Round 2...
