Today's Saimoe Tournament match is between Sayuri of Kanon and Rika of Higurashi.

I have voted for Sayuri. Have you?

If you do support her but haven't voted yet, vote right now or you'll regret it later on! (How to vote, refer here)

I've added several posters behind the cut. I've also translated the Chinese Saimoe newspaper into English for your pleasure, but only for Sayuri~

Ahaha!

Congratulations to Sayuri for defeating Elulu! I so happy for her that she won. ^_^

Looks like Elulu is no big deal after all despite defeating Ayu earlier. She's moe okay, but not as moe as anyone from Kanon~

I can't believe that I'm campaigning for a character in the Saimoe 2007.



Eight of the nine Kanon girls (Ayu, Mai, Makoto, Akiko, Kaori, Shiori, Nayuki, Sayuri) qualified for the second round, but only Sayuri managed to survive till the third round.

She is always considered an underdog in Kanon, but now, she's the only candidate left representing Kanon in the Saimoé competition 2007!

It's a pity that front-runners like Ayu and Mai had been easily eliminated.

For having to fight Elulu who has defeated Kanon front-runner, Ayu, I wonder what are the chances Sayuri has against her.. Plus, with Aruru losing right now to Suiseiseki, fans are surely going to do their best to put Elulu into the top-16 qualifying round tomorrow.

That is why I've decided to campaign for Sayuri.

If you look at Sayuri closely, she's not that bad either. She also has her own unique moe factors, like for example the bentous she made by herself for Yuuichi and Mai, her third-person-point-of-view of herself, and of course not forgetting her trademark 'ahaha' quote which she would so happily pronounce in front of any sentences she is about to say under no circumstances at all.

Usually she is overshadowed by Mai whom she is always behind of, caring and protecting her from all harms, including being expelled from school. Perhaps this the main factor she would usually go unnoticed by Kanon fans. However, unlike Tsukasa of Lucky Star who only has looks but appears to be an airhead, Sayuri has brains and is also a member of the student council of the school she attends.

People like fatcatlim once said that "Mai = MAI-WAIFU". Sayuri can be a better wife than Mai, let me tell you. She can cook and she can take care of others. What more would you want from a wife? ^^



Vote for her on 12 of October 2007, which is tomorrow! Details on how to vote are available in Animesuki forums.

VOTE FOR SAYURI! VOTE FOR KANON! VOTE FOR KYO-ANI! VOTE FOR MOE!

In conjunction with Yamaki’s Anime Blog’s First Anniversary celebration (I wanted to buy a birthday cake to celebrate but I was short of money, so meh), I, kristalyamaki, would like to present to you, the best of the best, the ones that made many go fanatical, in a roundup of the best animes of each month as produced in every month for the past 12 months. It’s about time I proudly announce the best winners of the Remedial Anime Awards, August 2006 – July 2007. For those wondering what had happened to the awards for the month of July 2007, there is not going to be a July edition of the Remedial Anime Awards. Taking that apart, there’s still this overall awards so you can sit back and enjoy!

And so, here is the list of anime series which are included in this award:

1. Asatte no Houkou
2. Sola
3. School Rumble
4. Honey & Clover
5. Kanon (2006)
6. Shuffle!
7. .hack//roots
8. Infinite Ryvius

The following anime series are also specially allowed to enter a few specific awards due to lack of contestants:

1. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Best Vocal Soundtrack)
2. Bleach (Best ED Theme Song)
3. Maria-sama ga Miteru (Best ED Theme Song)
4. NHK ni Yokoso (Best ED Theme Song)

There would be altogether 17 awards which will be given away tonight to the contesting anime series. The anime series have underwent strict judging by me and a few other anime watchers that I know and we have come to a conclusion. (well, I did most of the critiques and nominations while all the other judges did was nodded their heads to whatever I said. It’s hard to find good anime critics these days... =\ )
