ISML 2009 ends today (at least the main tournament). Hinagiku has beaten Shana by 11 points once again upsetting the top seed. With that, Hinagiku is crowned the champion of ISML 2009. Congratulation Hinagiku! Shana had a good run here with this being her third loss for the entire year, but she couldn’t win where it mattered most.

X7	Senō Natsuru (KMPF)	709	1268	Sakurano Kurimu (SnI)	Madrid

The runner-up of last year is eliminated. Tomoyo defeats Yuki limiting her only to 4th place. Next, she gets to take on Shana. Three characters remain in the tournament.

Taiga beats Kagami again. After a 3 point win in Best Moe, Taiga beats 3rd place of last year Kagami by less than 50. She finishes with 7th place while Kagami gets 8th.

Kurimu pounds that Kampfer girl by over 500 votes. In the exhibition match, Seno was no match for Kurimu. Can Kurimu become a contestant of ISML 2010? Looks possible, even with the reduction to 50 characters.

Next up: Elimination Round 6: Shana vs. Tomoyo, 5th place match: Fate vs. Kyou, other matches.

ISML 5th Round of Elimination

Picks:

ARENA 01: [Sakagami Tomoyo] Nagato Yuki

ARENA 02: Hiiragi Kagami [Aisaka Taiga]

ARENA 03: Kamio Misuzu [Index Prohibitorum]

ARENA 04: [Minase Nayuki] Chii

ARENA 05: Evangeline McDowell [Kawasumi Mai]

ARENA 06: [Hakurei Reimu] Louise Vallière

ARENA 07: [Kurata Sayuri] Yagami Hayate

ARENA 08: [Vita] Katagiri Yūhi

ARENA 09: [Misaka Mikoto] Tsukimiya Ayu

ARENA 10: Senō Natsuru [Sakurano Kurimu]

-

The end is near! Four characters remain. After this match, there will be only 3. Today, Tomoyo is up against Yuki, last year’s runner up.  Both were eliminated by Hinagiku who’s currently the only character not in the elimination matches. Whoever wins will be up against #1 Shana. Yuki has the advantage here, but I am going for Tomoyo.

For 7th place, we have a rematch of the Best Moe finals: Kagami vs. Taiga. Could Taiga pull off another win against Kagami, or will she avenge her 3 point loss. Going for Taiga for 7th place.

Lastly, we have our exhibition matchup between Seno and Kurimu. For me, this is one-sided since I am not watching Kampfer. Even if I did, I would probably go for Kurimu anyways. She is currently my favorite character that is new this season (The only new shows this season that I’m watching are Seitokai no Ichizon and Kobato. The rest are second seasons or spinoffs).

Congratulations to all the winners that advanced. Those eliminated include Haruhi (Surprisingly), Mikuru, Suigintou, and Rin. Yes! Rin is out of the tournament! Eliminated by Taiga! (All that’s left for her is the match to determine where she stands) Taiga is awesome! I’m pretty satisfied with today’s results overall. Maybe Taiga could go for the top…wait, she’s against Fate next.

Also, Utau managed to pull off a win against Alice. I don’t remember how Utau was not able to get in (or how Amu did). Or maybe Alice is not that good.

Next up: Winner’s Bracket (Round 2), 13th place match (part 1), and Relegation (round 5).

X1	Senjōgahara Hitagi (BKMN)	1105	1812	Akiyama Mio (K-ON)	Madrid

Congratulations to Kagami for knocking out Horo. Same with Mikuru, Fate, and Taiga eliminating their respective opponents. They are up again Thursday in the second elimination matchup. We’ll see what happens. I will post my picks as the match comes up. This will include Rin possibly being eliminated, hopefully.

Also, go Mio! She beats Hitagi in exhibition. Hopefully we can get more exhibition matchups like this.

Korean Best Moe Semifinals- Kagami vs. Ushio

Result:

Kagami (LS) 1460, Ushio (Clannad) 1390

-

After Ushio’s surprising run (just realized that she took out both runner up (Kyou) and champion (Horo) of last year in succession), she is eliminated by Kagami by 70 votes. If she had won, I would have considered her a dangerous threat to Taiga.
