A good win =) Another one of my favorite moe pass through to the semi. Nagi is indeed better than Konata when it comes to hikki things, though Konata wins her if it comes to house chore :3 The match really never seems easy for both of them, but overall Nagi had a small votes difference for the major portion of the day (178 fakes for Nagi and 262 for Konata). The small number of fake votes also didn't really affect the result of the match, and the data mining shows that Nagi got more supports from the locals.



Next match is going to be interesting. Louise (Zero no Tsukaima) vs Rika (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni). Expect Louise to get a lot of revenge voters especially from RM faction. As for this match, both of them aren't really my favorite, but Louise ranking in my list is higher than Rika, so I vote for her (no other reason, Kugimiya legion). Nevertheless Higurashi already have Rena in the semi, while Nagi already represent Kugimiya tsundere.
Looking at their previous round matches, Rika never hit 1k votes, while Louise did by overcoming Eri and Suiginto. Who knows whether Louise surprising form will end here in this match, or will she mark another win (and perhaps ignite even more hate votes lol)

Korean Saimoe: As expected, Hinagiku win comfortably against Tamaki and set an ideal final against Shana. A battle of swordwomen with their own capabilities. It's really hard to predict the outcome of this match, seeing how well both of them done in their respective previous matches (Shana overcome Suiseiseki, Hinagiku won against Kagami).


G2: Katsura Hinagiku (Hayate no Gotoku)
