[saimoe] Q4 result/next match preview

Quarterfinal 4

1. 1位　1697票　真紅＠ローゼンメイデン オーベルテューレ(Shinku@Rozen Maiden Ouverture)
2. 2位　1639票　柊つかさ＠らき☆すた(Hiiragi Tsukasa@Lucky Star)

uh...the second Zetsubou for me =( Even more heartbreaking is the way the graph looks like:

What a turn around. While Tsukasa had a constant lead in the beginning, everything changed in the final 2-3 hours when Shinku got some insane burst-votes rush which drive her to get to the top. The data mining also shows that Shinku got more supports from the locals compared to Tsukasa (1400+ to 1200+). RM faction really is something this time, considering Shinku is their only remaining contestant. While the fake votes shows little difference for both of them, though it's still a turn around after the fake votes were deducted.

1位→2位　2235票→1639票　Tsukasa
2位→1位　2170票→1697票　Shinku

Character: Foreign/Japan/Total
Shinku: 296/1401/1697
Tsukasa: 437/1202/1639

Shinku really is backed by the power of the true doll, Alice. Now she's back in the semi final, after her loss in 2005 semi final.
So now another one of my favorite has lost. Though it's still a good performance from Tsukasa to advance this far, only to get beaten by last-hour rush votes. Now she follows the path of her sister, and will return in next year Saimoe which will be more fierce than ever, but without the force of RM (unless...you know what). Now my hopes only lies on Rena and Nagi, who met each other in the next match. Well at least I will still have one of my favorite in the final.

Saimoe takes a day break. Then the semi final match will begin:

sF1 (10/31)

• 竜宮レナ＠ひぐらしのなく頃に(Ryuuguu Rena@Higurashi no Naku Koro ni)
• 三千院ナギ＠ハヤテのごとく！(Sanzenin Nagi@Hayate the Combat Butler)

sF2 (11/01)

• 古手梨花＠ひぐらしのなく頃に(Furude Rika@Higurashi no Naku Koro ni)
• 真紅＠ローゼンメイデン オーベルテューレ(Shinku@Rozen Maiden Ouverture)

Seems like many people want an all-Higurashi final. But I'd prefer Nagi or Rena to beat Shinku at final :3
