Really pleased to see Kuroneko upset Eu. And by one lone vote no less! Pretty epic.
Nice to see Toki win, but her competition wasn't exactly the stiffest in the world. And if people don't want Mikoto to repeat, now's the time to get behind an opponent of her's, imo. Taiga is probably just strong enough to knock off Mikoto if people dislike the idea of a repeat champion.

Now I'm certain that the Kugimiya Rie and/or Shana fanbases made Shana lose to Saber on purpose. They're probably afraid that winning the stella circlet will produce a lot of anti-votes during the matches for the tiara. They're laying low until Shana's has to fight against the top tier characters during postseason 2.
Because of this they're probably trying to give Taiga the Stella circlet instead. She has a decent chance at beating Mikoto, so I hope she'll do it. And wow, I didn't expect Eu to lose to Kuroneko. It seems that just like last year, Kuroneko becomes stronger during the postseason.

Did Kanade ever get anti-voted in 2011? No, Kanade loss to Shana because of a Facebook widget that drew in loads of JC Staff fans that weren't voting before (and keep in mind that I say that as a big Shana fan). Those JC Staff fans setup a Shana vs. Mikoto final, and then the vast majority of them went with Mikoto. Honestly, if not for that Facebook widget I think that Kanade likely would have had a perfect 2011 season and won it all. Personally, I think that momentum-building has a bigger effect in ISML than anti-voting does. And you build momentum by winning all the time.

And ISML now draws more voters than it did prior to 2011. Anti-voting is at its most effective with smaller total voter bases, imo. That's why I do think that anti-voting still plays a big role in J-SaiMoe. I'm really not convinced that anti-voting has played a significant role in ISML over the past two years though. If anybody thinks it does, I'd be interested in seeing what 2011/2012 matches they can point to where anti-voting is the most logical reason for why a certain outcome occurred.

2009 - Katsura Hinagiku (#11 seed) won the tiara 2010 - Mio Akiyama (#3 seed) won the tiara 2011 - Misaka Mikoto (#2 seed) won the tiara (Wasn't around for ISML 2008 though) Edit: http://2008.internationalsaimoe.com/standings.php Two separate standings one for the postseason and one for the regular season. (Just realized Fate, Tomoyo and Haruhi had the same win/loss record though) Quote:
