Saimoe 2007

Saimoe thread, so as to not shit up /a/ with whining for the next three months. However, when canvassing for votes is necessary, imagedumps are the only way and motherfuckers will just have to deal

Anyway, preliminaries are over and main matches start 08/08.

Here is some fag's blog with coverage, secondhand from AS threads (for earlier information, you'll have to taint your history with that shithole by reading their threads):

And here is some fag's english translation of the rules:

ITT votes, predictions, commentary, bitching, etc

11 August winners:

677 votes  Segawa Izumi@Hayate the Combat Butler
614 votes  Hirai Yukari@Shakugan no Shana

At this point, Hayate has 3 characters in the second rounds of group A, and Shana and Rozen each have 2.
Additionally, a Lucky Star character that was only in the OP at the time of her nomination beat a dead girl and the female lead from Mamoru-kun, which no one watched.
