Today's Battles: 8/21

Wow. I think this is our biggest win so far: 870 votes for Hinagiku Katsura of Combat Butler Hayate-- 732 points more than the second placer, Utawarerumono's Touka. Valkyria Chronicles' Selvaria and Cross Game's Aoba? Don't make me laugh.

The second match of the day was also won by a Hayate character, childhood friend Ayumu "Hamster" Nishizawa...but it was a closer battle; she beat Saki's Hajime Kunihiro by 63 points, followed by Seto no Hanayome's San Seto and Koihime Musou's Chouhi Yokutoku.

I was reticent about gambling on K-On!, but the show's heroine Yui rocked her way to the top of the list, creaming Shugo Chara!"s Yaya, Lucky Star's Hiyori, and Tayutama's Ameri.

And finally, tally another win for mah-jongg anime Saki: Teru Miyanaga flipped her tiles to Koihime Musou's Bachou Mouki, Code Geass' Shirley Fenette, and Hatsukoi Limited's Ayumi in record time.

The Next Battles: 8/22

  • To Love-Ru's MIKAN YUUKI vs Tayutama's YUMINA TAKANASHI vs MariaHolic's DORM MISTRESS vs Spice & Wolf's NOLA ARENDT
  • Akikan!'s MELON vs Strike Witches' FRANCESCA LUCCHINI vs KimiKis' MAO MIZUSAWA vs Toradora!'s YURI KOIGAKUBO
  • Higurashi no Naku Koro ni's RIKA FURUDE vs Saki's MUTSUKI TSUYAMA vs Strike Witches' EILA ILMATAR JUUTILAINEN vs Clannad's RYOU FUJIBAYASHI
  • Asu no Yoichi!'s KAGOME IKARUGA vs Higurashi's MIYO TAKANO vs Toradora!'s MINORI vs Macross Frontier's KLAN KLAN

My predictions: I know I'd vote for the dorm mistress, but I think MIkan is pretty popular. Francesca, Eila, and...well, I hope Klan.

*cheers for hinagiku*
Oh man. I don't think there's any chance S&W's Nola could win against Mikan, but I want her to.
 
Everyone else I'm pretty apathetic to, other than the dorm mistress.

Hinagiku seems to running away with these battles she is going to be tough to beat.

I want so bad not to fall onto the Hina bandwagon, but damn, she's cool. And so's that ending.

Hinagiku is a real powerhouse and somehow I don't hate her. So, H-I-N-A, I guess.

You have Saki Miyanaga pictured above there, Gia.  The sister of Teru & main titular star of "Saki." 
 
Tomorrow's winners will be Mikan, Rika (in what's to be an extremely close match between all 4 girls), Yuri, & Minori.

@hipalbatross: Dorm Mistress was a close second in my heart, but I felt Nola had more to work with, dramatically speaking

Dig Deeper into Moe

Moe (pronounce moh-eh) is a Japanese slang term for something one likes, and within the anime realm is used to refer to characters who inspire a protective sort of love-- usually because the characters seem to need someone to take care of them.
