Saimoe update 9/8

After all, Ayu did manage to beat Reinforce, with a hundred-vote margin, amidst some pretty heavy numbers of faked votes. C'est la vie; it's not like Ayu isn't the world's cutest taiyaki thief, so I wish her well. Sayuri won along with Ayu, ironically with the exact same vote total, which is almost uncanny. Not EVERYONE who voted for Ayu also voted for Sayuri, right? Right? Ayane from Nagasarete won a much-closer match over Yakumo and Mana.

G-2 is a tough call, mostly because all three competitors are relatively weak. I'll give it to Kaguya from Geass - cute, but small role. Possible that a big Shana or Utawarerumono vote could come in for Chigusa or Sakuya respectively, but I doubt it.

The action should pick up in G-6; Akari took second in her first prelim round, and there's still some Aria voters kicking around, even if they haven't been advancing through the tourney much. Hime from Kaibutsu Oujo did decently in the first prelim, but that show's just not popular enough to keep Akari out of the next round.

Not sure how G-10 will come out. Ironically, Nono from Hitohira got fewer votes than Arf from Strikers in the first prelim, but the vagaries of their respective rounds meant Arf came in fourth while Nono was kicked to the second prelim (where she won, heh.) Not familiar with Hitohira myself. Arf, unlike the other returning Strikers characters, actually got younger; a friend of mine suggested that this was evidence of the Law of Conservation of Hotness between her and Fate. While we mourn the loss of what was one of the truly magnificent rear ends of the 2006 anime season... Arf took her sweet time showing up at all in Strikers, but now that she's shown up, it may help her votes.

1 Well I can't say I'm not upset over Rein losing, but I guess it helps the other StrikerS later on. I just liked Ayu the least out of the 5 main Kanon girls I guess.

2 It was rumor on 2ch that Rozen Maiden doll fetish fans were behind the large number of fake Rein votes.

3 I seriously doubt that Chigusa will win G-2. It's weird that she even got this far. (M**F vote notwithstanding...)

4 You can say MILF here, Steven. (Or rather, wouldn't you star out the F? Or is it like SNAFU, where it'd translate to "mother I'd like to feed"?
