Round 4 Has Finished!

The competition is getting tough. Also, if I've counted things right, the semi-finals (round 6) is going to be wild. So look forward to that.

Also, the new Exedra trailer has not told what exactly the gameplay is. Thanks for that. Acknowledging Magia Record was an interesting surprise though. I hope they bring back the more minor girls like Nanaka and don't just stick with the main cast.

The now customary extra data is below. I'll see you all for the fifth round soon.

Tsubasa Hanekawa vs Madoka Kaname (71.4%) - Tsubasa did well to make it this far. Only falling to the giant that is Madoka.

Sana Futaba (53.3%) vs Mikoto Sena

Ren Isuzu vs Alina Gray (57.3%)

Yu vs Ashley Taylor (51.4%) - Why was this so close? Serial killer versus weeb is not what I expected to be a close match. And for the dark horse that was Yu to lose...

Eternal Sakura (53.3%) vs Juri Oba

Kyoko Sakura (70.1%) vs Tsuruno Yui

Yuna Kureha (52.3%) vs Ui Tamaki

Homura Akemi (77.3%) vs Nagisa Momoe

Karin Misono vs Oriko Mikuni (56.4%) - Oriko was not the spin-off manga character I thought would last the longest. Yet here we are.

Mami Tomoe (57.1%) vs Sayaka Miki - The first of the quintet has been eliminated. And only done by another of the quintet. It's interesting to learn Mami is more popular than Sayaka though.

Round 3 Has Finished!

The rounds are getting rougher, I can see you all struggling on who to vote for in some cases. But, before the results, let's talk about something else.

Magia Record has announced it's shutdown. That's really a shame, I like seeing new puella magi. But now I'm wondering if I should have just waited a few days and started this series when I could get good art of Shi. I didn't wait because 1. I thought it wouldn't matter (Yu is proving that point wrong) and 2. because I thought there might be more releases afterwards and thus waiting would mean little. While it's too late now, I do wonder how the matchups would have changed.

Well, if you want the compiled results and comments, you know what to do. Either way, I'll see you all soon for Round 4.

Ayame Mikuri vs Tsubasa Hanekawa (67.2%) - I'll be honest, I didn't think Tsubasa would make it this far. She's the only crossover character left.

Madoka Kaname (70.2%) vs Livia Mederios

Sana Futaba (84.4%) vs Kaede Akino

Mikoto Sena (66.7%) vs Mikage Yakumo

Amaryllis vs Ren Isuzu (51.3%)

Nanaka Tokiwa vs Alina Gray (69.4%) - Am I surprised by this result? No. But I'm still a bit sad, I adore Nanaka's design.

Yu (71.4%) vs Himena Aika - I know Muffin made a whole post as to why people love Yu. That doesn't seems to stop me from being shocked when she beats out Himena (who I thought was popular).

Ashley Taylor (57.5%) vs Mel Anna

Eternal Sakura (70.5%) vs Mayu Kozue

Kanoko Yayoi vs Juri Oba (54.3%)

Kyoko Sakura (73.3%) vs Riz Hawkwood - Three times now Kyoko has gone against a spin-off manga character. And each time she absolutely destroys them.

Mito Aino vs Tsuruno Yui (61.4%)

Mitama Yakumo vs Yuna Kureha (51%)

Ayaka Mariko vs Ui Tamaki (74.4%)

Ao Kasane vs Homura Akemi (80%)

Nagisa Momoe (50.8%) vs Yachiyo Nanami - This one was closer than I expected.

Nayuta Satomi vs Karin Misono (68.2%)

Konoha Shizumi vs Oriko Mikuni (66.7%)

Mifuyu Azusa vs Mami Tomoe (66.4%)

Sayaka Miki (55.8%) vs Ikumi Makino vs Kirika Kure - Our first three-way. The end result is exactly what I expected, but I do applaud those of you who actually voted for Ikumi. You're real ones voting for the dark horse of the three.
