No, I assure you, I was equally butthurt in both contests. ^.^

ARENA 01: Tachibana Kanade [Shana]
Burn the angel to the ground, Shana!
ARENA 02: Akiyama Mio [Aisaka Taiga]
I like Taiga more.
ARENA 03: Yui [Nagato Yuki]
Still supporting Yuki no matter what.
ARENA 04: Katsura Hinagiku [Suzumiya Haruhi]
Maybe I should have sided with Hinagiku.
ARENA 05: Nakano Azusa [Eucliwood Hellscythe]
Call me crazy, but I find Eu more moe that Azusa. Do not know why though.
ARENA 06: [Nakamura Yuri] Sengoku Nadeko
I prefer Yuri more.
ARENA 07: [Charlotte Dunois] Senjōgahara Hitagi
This was a tough call. It could have done either way. Sided with Charlotte in the end.
ARENA 08: Elucia de Lute Irma [Haqua du Lot Herminium]
Haqua. Just because. Though, I think Elsie would win this one.
ARENA 09: [Kawashima Minami] Minato Tomoka
There is a good chance Tomoka is going to win. I would not really consider Minami moe.
ARENA 10: [Ayanami Rei] Evangeline McDowell
I have Rei winning this one. I still sided with her.

Same, the only tough vote was Yuri vs Sengoku.

[ppaaccoojrf]

ARENA 01: Tachibana Kanade [Shana]
-Not so much voting for Shana as voting against Kanade. And even then, only for the sake of competition, not really out of spite.
ARENA 02: Akiyama Mio [Aisaka Taiga]
-I'm not really into Mio so...
ARENA 03: [Yui] Nagato Yuki
-Favorite Angel Beats! girl.
ARENA 04: [Katsura Hinagiku] Suzumiya Haruhi
-Hina is my autopick, no exceptions.
ARENA 05: [Nakano Azusa] Eucliwood Hellscythe
-Yuu is probably the character I least liked in that show, not even out of all the girls. She was just boring IMO.
ARENA 06: Nakamura Yuri [Sengoku Nadeko]
-Everytime I see Nadeko my mind starts playing Ren'Ai Circulation. I just can't not vote for her afterward.
ARENA 07: Charlotte Dunois [Senjōgahara Hitagi]
-Could have gone either way really. I just like Hitagi a bit more.
ARENA 08: Elucia de Lute Irma [Haqua du Lot Herminium]
-Haqua has been my favorite character in that manga since her first appearance. Not much of a hard choice. Still, I now realize the amount of hard picks from that series. Next we'll have Shiori vs. Sumire...
ARENA 09: Kawashima Minami [Minato Tomoka]
-Nothing to see here, I don't see Tomoka losing.
ARENA 10: Ayanami Rei [Evangeline McDowell]
-I get to vote for my favorite loli vampire? Yay! Here's hoping for Eva end in the manga.

[0utf0xZer0]

Am I the only one who thinks that Tomoka is basically loli version of Nadeko with a more, er... "innocent and wholesome" crush on her onii-chan? She's adorable.

Here's Haruhi's height, here's Kuroneko's height (along with other Ore no Imouto characters), and here's Mikoto's height.

So Haruhi, Mikoto, and Kuroneko are all about the same height. In fact, Haruhi is the shortest of the three.

So unless you're prepared to call Haruhi a loli-tsundere, which I'm not (and I don't think I've ever seen her called that), I'm not sure how Mikoto or Kuroneko could be considered loli-tsunderes either.

Kuroneko is not that short, she simply may seem this way since her female friends are comparatively tall.

Mikoto is a DFC middle schooler, and younger than Touma. Kuroneko is DFC and clearly Kyousuke’s junior, which she emphasizes by calling him sempai or onii-chan (girl knows her weak spots!).

If they weren’t DFC I’d class them as a “cute junior” type, but the combination of factors is sufficient to make them lolis to me (even if Kuroneko is a little borderline). While I am willing to recognize that 17 year old characters like Taiga and Azusa as lolis on the basis of height/build, height can’t be the only path to being a loli because Airi in Ro-kyu-bu is 168cm and I think most would recognize her as a loli, largely on the basis of being a elementary school student.

(And Kanade is 160cm too? WTF, she looks way tinier.)

Mikoto is also fairly shrill at times, which is classic loli-tsun behaviour. Kuroneko is a bit different – she actually has a classic tsun personality combined with some loli/cute junior appeals.

Haruhi isn’t as short as Taiga/Azusa, isn’t Kyon’s junior or a middle schooler, isn’t a DFC, and while aggressive, she’s generally not shrill in the loli-tsun sense. There’s no real basis on which to argue her a loli-tsun IMO.

ARENA 01: Tachibana Kanade [Shana]
-Shana-love before Kanade love, besides, Tenshi doesn't need my vote as much as Shana does, so

ARENA 02: Akiyama Mio [Aisaka Taiga]
Mio overflows with moe, Taiga-chan less so, but I like Taiga more, so

ARENA 03: [Yui] Nagato Yuki
Yuki was awesome in Disappearance, but Yui's arc sold me

ARENA 04: Katsura Hinagiku [Suzumiya Haruhi]
Haruhi 'cos she gets less credit than she deserves for popularizing anime in the West, plus PONYTAIL

ARENA 05: [Nakano Azusa] Eucliwood Hellscythe
Azusa, easy

ARENA 06: Nakamura Yuri [Sengoku Nadeko]
I don't give props to Nadeko enough, so here's my chance; Yuri was the typical annoying tsun character who grows slowly with me, except this time too late

ARENA 07: Charlotte Dunois [Senjōgahara Hitagi]
Didn't care for the trap intro to "Charles" and Hitagi's tsun was more expertly crafted than Yuri's so I liked her a lot more. PLUS STARGAZING ftw

ARENA 08: Elucia de Lute Irma [Haqua du Lot Herminium]
Elucia annoyed me for some reason(s); I think it was the fluffy pink feather boa, or something... anyway, Haqua was slightly less annoying, so

ARENA 09: Kawashima Minami [Minato Tomoka]
Who? Oh

ARENA 10: Ayanami Rei [Evangeline McDowell]
Had to think on this one; in the remake movies I liked Rei a whole lot better than the original anime, but I neglected Evangeline so many times thought I'd throw her a bone xD

[KholdStare]

Aha-tan I missed you!

[Ahasuerus]

Thank you, the feeling's mutual xD

Too much commotion lately to chat much, but will see you all (very) soon. I've got a shitload of anime to catch up on

Back to voting...

ARENA 01: [Tachibana Kanade] Shana
(Sorry, Shana, Kanade IS my waifu and I'm not going to against her here...)

ARENA 02: Akiyama Mio [Aisaka Taiga]
(Sorry, Mio, Kugyu factor wins. Kugyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuu)
ARENA 03: Yui [Nagato Yuki]
(The gap b/t them is just too big...)
ARENA 04: [Katsura Hinagiku] Suzumiya Haruhi
(And hope Hina destroy Haruhi)
ARENA 05: [Nakano Azusa] Eucliwood Hellscythe

ARENA 06: Nakamura Yuri [Sengoku Nadeko]
(I don't even like Yurippe anyway)
ARENA 07: [Charlotte Dunois] Senjōgahara Hitagi
(A fairly hard one. Charlotte is too kawaii to pass up, though)

ARENA 08: [Elucia de Lute Irma] Haqua du Lot Herminium
(And this will make Game8910 sad...I like both, neither are my top girl from TWGOK, nor this is an easy choice. Haqua has the tsundere factor while I like Elsie's VA better...oh well, Bakuma wins out at the end)
ARENA 09: Kawashima Minami [Minato Tomoka]
(Although Hinata is more moe than Moka, it doesn't mean I won't vote for her. Not to mention, there's the HanaKana factor...)
ARENA 10: Ayanami Rei [Abstained] Evangeline McDowell
(Still don't care)
