SHIT YEAH GYRO ZEPPELI!

Manga, visual novels, a whole lot of stuff from the first tournament and NO GIRLS. Vinland Saga was denied entry this time around, it's got to return for the next round out. The problem with visual novels though are they're hard to fact-check, which is probably why (in my view) SaiGar Guy didn't allow them.

I'd rather this tournament have been shorter without the females and troll votes rather than longer with them - with the cheating considered, it made the tournament too serious. The original SaiGar managed to preserve a balance between "serious business" and "light hearted fun", this one was either serious business or serious trolling.

In spite of this, I had a great deal of enjoyment rooting for characters I thought were manly, debating here, celebrating losses (and wins) - it wasn't as great as last year, but certainly it was quite great. I found Nightshift /a/ to be a lot more enjoyable though, but moot brought an end to that.

Only old Gundam series had GAR characters.

I'd vote for Chibodee Crocket, just for being American.

Chibodee was awesome solely for the fact that he was a boxer who piloted Gundams and was the only American anime character to ever have a harem.

Ahem.

Spoiler for The winner:

Ithekro · 2008-02-25, 21:38

I am unsatified with this result. Leaving things unfinished and all. Doesn't help that it seems 4chan was against the tournament in general.

(Besides now no one can use "Usoda!" for Rena's win.)

When does Saimoe 2008 start?

Kirarakim · 2008-02-25, 21:47

Yes this competition obviously goes to Claire. He got so fed up that he killed all the remaining contestants and thus ended the competition.

All that means is the battle, rather than ending, is going on for all eternity. Those who saw the final Getter OVA know what I'm talking about. It's a repeat of SaiGar 2006's final, Archer v. Akagi.

cicido · 2008-02-25, 22:57

Vino won, no competition.
That is a victory almost as good as Archer's.

Sorry, but in truth the contest truly belonged to any of these three epic men:

Sheba · 2008-02-26, 04:50

Aw too bad all of three guys got hate voted and proxy voted to death.

I concede victory to Claire. So GAR that saigar got killed.

minhtam1638 · 2008-02-26, 06:06

Hmm... so this is the 4chan problem I was warned about. I'll be on the look out. If there's that many proxy votes, we'll see what happens.

Awesome news.

Spectacular_Insanity · 2008-02-27, 13:06

I agree, it was becoming a joke.

Good! Considering what it had become it wasn't worth pursuing anymore anyway.
