Ever since Anchovy struck back and got close the lead, both girl's have been at each other's throats, kicking and screaming to get any advantage over the other.
Despite the theatrics, both are now at a visceral tie.
Who knows but God which girl will, if either, will achieve a strong lead in the morning? Until, then though, Oyasumi! :senko_nap:
Tally:
Asuka - 34
Anchovy - 34
Just a reminder, there are plenty of legitimate ways to boost your girl like bringing in people who don't usually care about anime to vote for them or posting art every few minutes. But do not cheat. I am not that stupid and fooled and I will not tolerate that behavior.
Asuka has both won as well as the implicit eternal match between Asuka and Rei.
ChristJuinor offers an alt reason for liking Asuka: "Asuka might be a raging cunt, but because of that and her great looks she's also outrageously Correctable, providing her with fierce, raw appeal that transcends the mediocrity of her overrated show."
He also reminds us that Asuka is also fascist, "Asuka has been fighting for us all this time, now it's our time to fight for her..." He quotes a libshit article that points to Asuka as a White Nationalist meme girl.
Fash-E says, "I have too many Asukas to poast them all so that will have to do" Oh no! Here comes the spam again!
The monster girl idealist of the Fluffy Tail Mafia, Mongoose, declares, "Fluffy tail enjoyers stand with asuka."
Not everyone likes Asuka though. In fact, there are many detractors on the Fediverse, which will create many anti voters.
From Christmas_Man on The Bag Social, "Asuka has no redeeming character traits, all Tsun, no dere. I'm correct so I will not apologize.""
** RR 23. Anchovy / Girls und Panzer **
It's hard to measure Anchovy's performance in the main tournament though, as her opponent, Kurumi, received the least amount of votes in Round One and in the whole Main Tournament thus far.
ChristJuinor gives a succicent summary of Anchovy's qualties: "Italian, Fascist, nice hair, nice tummy, what's there not to like?" Mmmmm! Fascist pizza girl tummy!
Merchant Helios of Poast reminds all Supreme Anglo posters that "the pizza woman is honorary."
The match begun with a rough start, and not merely from the girls' perspective. A few buttheads tried to fag up the poll with literal fag posts. A few didn't follow the "NO FUN ALLOWED" rule (:WatameChibiSmug:). A few told the host to suck it. Technical problems caused the votes to get miscounted. Everything has calmed down since, but what was left in the wake of that mess?
Tomoko herself has had a rough start. Staying in bed past the alarm, while Tsumugi was up and out, the Fujo of Watamote barely scrambled together supporters to catch up. Mugi-chan is already pounding hard ready on her keys to rock the Fedi with bangers.
Tomoko bros need to go out if they want their "literally me" girl to have a chance.
Tally (as of 7:00 PM EST exactly):
Tomoko - 15
Tsumugi - 23
==============================================
(ROUND 2) MATCH #21: 2. TOMOKO KUROKI VS. 18. TSUMUGI KATABUKI
Links to the poll account and thread for those who can't see the quote post: @AnimeGirlConnoisseur
The Fluffy Tail Mafia regained their strength last match with Senko-san's crushing fuwa victory over Lina the Sorceress. With that, we are no half-way through Round Two and nearly two-thirds of the way through the whole Tournament. Time flies when you are having fun.
Today, we have the popular unpopular fujo girl facing the popular-to-us popular-to-them nice girl.
** 2. Tomoko Kuroki / Watamote! **
The famous fujo comes back after the fierce round with Bocchi the Rock. Tomoko is a bit of a contraversial
Koropokkur of Nice Crew Digital says, "tomoko is in a minority of fujo that doesnt like yaoi and thats why she is special." Awww—
"[Tomoko's] one of those gals that will grind her snatch on yer pelvis when you dont spank her." Oh, uhhhhhh, okay! Yeaaaaah! Let's forget about that.
** RR 18. Tsumugi Katabuki / K-On! **
Mugi-bros unite! The mascot of the Mugicha Club and main sponser of this tournament has made it to round two. With her classy and innocent school girl charm, Mugi-chan has sailed easily. Mugi will have a slightly better advantage than Tomoko.
Vrill_Oreilly from the Comfy Boy Club declared all the way back from the first Royal Rumble, "WE"RE GONNA KILL YOU NIGGAS" as a warning to anti-Mugi voters
Unfortunately, there are not many quotations are could gather for either girl about the girls themselves without referencing the competing girls. That is why if you want to see what you and others are saying, be sure to sing your girl's praises in case she moves on to the quarterfinals.
Edit: Due to a technical issue, partially of my own fault, some votes were not recorded that were made before 4:00 PM. The new tally above should reflect the true numbers.

Since hardly anybody (rightfully) cares about anything involving """BIPOC""" in gaming, this is gonna be a simple poll where rigging is possible. I thought of adding some kind of strict rules for voting, but I doubt that this kind of contest needs it. Same goes for any kind of lengthy description of the vidya waifus of color themselves. The first few polls begin TOMORROW. __nitocris_nitocris_and_nitocris_fate_and_1_more_drawn_by_kevbot__b6e0837f5b82ceab011392f84d9bb8b3.jpg
@King_Noticer@berkberkman 1. The original: Yeetlib's Chuuba Tourney
2. The great sequel: Christi Juinor's Vidya Girl Contest
3. The controversial threequel: my #BestAnimeGirlTourney
4. The "Holiday Special": Rher's Anal Vore Tourney
5. The non-canon, and edgy novelization: Yockeypuck's e-Girl Tourney
6. The soft reboot: Yeetlib's Chuuba Tourney 2: Tenma Boogaloo
7. Cool video game based on the original trilogy: Berberkman's Brown Vidya Girls Contest
With the loss of Raphtalia, the Fluffy Tail Mafia, or the Fluffy Tail Menace depending on whom you ask, felt another loss and their influence waning. This match may prove to be relief for them.
** RR 28. Lina Inverse / Slayers **
Our devious sorceress had an easy time last round. Not many people voted, yet she carried the the match the whole match. Cool, collected. But I will be lying if I only sung Lina's praises and not give the reality that Lina will have a harder time against Senko.
Christi Junior likes to remind everyone that if you have to choose between two girls you really like, you choose "the hotter one. You already know she's the better-looking one, and you could always end up watching her show and loving her personality, whereas Plain Jane won't suddenly go from 6/10 to 10/10." Interesting anime aesthetics philosophy!
Lavaearth loves to play-bully girls. "Lina is also fun to bully and fluster."
Sou deska? Hopefully Lina receives playful bullying rather than devastating booty blasting from Senko.
** 9. Senko / The Helpful Fox Senko-san **
What a monster (girl)! Senko the helpful mommy-wife fox won the most votes with the current voting system and the highest percentage of votes of all girls, old and new systems.
Senko is all about showing real women how to be the perfect woman, which makes her a strong fighter in this tournament. She does not have many special powers, but her simplicity may be all she needs to defeat Lina and her Dragon Slave spell.
Awoo declares, "ONWARD TO FLUFFY TAIL DOMINATION AND A BETTER FUTURE FOR HUMANITY!!!"
Gundog reminds us that cute fox girls are the Japanese' better, more efficient version of women.
Wolf Girls in Wheat Fields warns everyone: "ALL GLORY TO THE SENKO UNION!
Comrades vote for Senko and for the right of man to his fluffy tail or she will send you to gulag!" A grave warning for those that would defy the Fluffy Tail Mafia! Perhaps this warning could have helped Raphtalia?
The Osaka have tried hard to keep their girl in a large lead since the last update, but many Tatsumaki fans refuse to let them shake off the psychic heroine. Still, with already sixty-plus people voting, can the Tornado of Terror use her power to find more voters? We will find out tomorrow!
==============================================
(ROUND 2) MATCH #17: 32. AYUMU "OSAKA" KASUGA VS. 17. TATSUMAKI
Thirty-two girls came into the tournament and sixteen girls remain. We start the round off with the controversial meme girl from Osaka facing off the psychic Tornado of Terror.
We're also going to be doing things a little different this time. Instead of introducing the girls, which we have already done in both the Royal Rumble and Round One, the host will share his toughts then give what other Fedi friends said about the girls previously.
Osaka is the most controversial figure in this whole tournament. Barely getting enough votes during the Royal Rumble to even be considered a wild card. She only got a wild card spot because the host decided to let people choose how to deteremine those, and Miia did not automatically bump Osaka out due to a coin flip on the host's part. Both the tie breaker match and the first round match were rife with cheating and Osaka statistically did not have the advantage prior to warrent the numbers she did pull in the first round. Added to that is all the behind-scenes drama and tech and medical problems that prevented full verification of the match. If anything, Osaka is only here due to sheer dumb, sometimes literally dumb, luck. But sheer dumb luck may be what she needs to win Round Two.
We had some detractors who didn't want Osaka in the tournament at all, like William_The_Dragonborn: "Osaka is a literal nobody!"
Both pro-Miia and pro-Megumin Fedi frens are circling the waters ready to trounce on the quiet school girl and all who think this match against Tatsumaki is that shrimple. See for example DEERBLOOD's spicy comment: "Osaka fans should not give up sucking balls and eating cock ass"
Wolf Girls in Wheat Field tried to calm the outrage "Our Osaka is an old school weeb icon that has resurged in popularity recently because memes involving her. Notice how nobody remembers Haruhi despite being huge at the same time, curious?"
Tatsumaki is the last winner using the Plemora poll method. As the results are most likely inflated, her performance last round does not give a flattering look for her if you scaled the second match as if it was voted with the current system. Then again, Osaka's and Megumin's votes were hyper-inflated so what do I know? Tatsumaki is liked by many, but not beloved and when you think of a girl that Osaka could fight, Tatsumaki is one of them. But with the current system in place and virtually no room for cheating, Tonado fans and anti voters could have a field day today?
Not many Fedi friends commented on Tatsumaki alone without referencing Lain, but some did.
From wgiwf: "Tatsumaki doesn't wear underwear, so she has that going for her this round." Wew!
Tatsumaki's chudcel husbando did not appear often during the second match but he did leave the important messages when it counted: "I will remind u guys about tatsu's child bearing hips"
I'm delaying the start of Round Two until tomorrow due to my illness acting up.
Knowing that there was rampant cheating in match one and Osaka in all honesty is statistically unlikely to be the true winner of the first match, will I do a re-do?
No, the system of voting we currently have has virtually removed cheating and I predict that Osaka won't make it to quarter-finals, let alone the final match. Plus, the only reason I'm going to allow the win is @Fash@poa.st doing the right thing and pulling in random people to vote for Osaka during that match, and I don't want that behavior punished just because of cheating on both sides.
If you were hoping for some closure of that issue and are disappointed we won't know for sure who really won that match, then blame SJW for refusing to give me the data from that poll and the cheaters on both sides.
Nevertheless, Osaka will face Tatsumaki tomorrow at 3 PM Eastern Standard Time.
==============================================
MATCH #16: 11. SHINOBU OSHINO VS. 22. LIRU
After Lum beat Marin and made cosplay lovers every cry, we finally arrive at the final match of Round One. Today, a vampire loli faces a brown, fluffy tailed werewolf, a classic face-off fitting for the an epic end to the first round of the tournament.
Thank you Kvit for the description of Shinobu PoastOak for the pic!
** 11. Shinobu Oshino / Monogatari **
Monogatori is a modern classic. It is such a classic that it makes you wonder why it only has one represenative in the entire tournament. From the memes to the songs to the story, Monogatari has it all. Shinobu, the sole representative from the series, has great power too, being a classic loli and engaging personality that will get all the far right lolicons crawling out of the Varis Hangout woodworks. If you don't like loli, she even has an alternative ara form if she gains enough power.
From the proprietor of the Vampire Maid Cafe, kvit:
"A blood chilling vampiric beauty Kiss-Shot-Acerola-Orion-Heart-Under-Blade (Oshino Shinobu) is easily one of the best characters in anime. From a lonely monster who attempted to die for another person’s sake, to a woman who learns to love life through her relationship with that person. Much of her character is spent in playful conversation with her master letting a barrage of quips, quirks, and cuteness build up in their classic back and forth. She jokes with her master and drags him along on fun (if occasionally ridiculous) adventures. Yet behind all of that is a deeply beautiful character who wishes to escape the fate of a monster living eternally as a pariah. One who comes to embrace life alongside her master, developing an irreplaceable bond between the two."
Our final girl, Liru the Werewolf inhabits a unique and precarious position. She may have won her Royal Rumble from fluffy tail fanatics, but she is more known for her doiujin game nowadays than for her anime, however cultish a classic it may be. She also lacks much fan art and merch that's not outright ero. With no extra girl to take votes from her opponent, and Raphtalia, Senko, and Holo already moving to Round Two, Liru will have a harder time against Shinobu. But, as we have seen before, stranger things have happened.
From the Royal Rumble:
"FOREVER EVER! Liru the werewolf journeys with three other baka monster girls as the travel to fight supposed oni's across Japan. She flaunts her wild and free spirit and
Most of you perhaps know her from Seisemic's doujin eroge, Wolf Girl With You, famous for Seisemic overcoming massive challenges to bring a deliciously vanilla game of you being lovey-dovey with this deliciously brown werewolf. This in itself spawn meme magic that brought down Gawker Media in that commie rag's worst defeat at the hand of the Hulkinator.
Liru is not the sole fluffy tail or canine representative in the tourney, and not necessarily the favorite, but she is the most unique of the bunch with a cult following, a unique meta story, and hopes to achieve victory."
For two hours after the first major update, it seemed like Lum was going to solidify her lead over Marin. The cosplaying cutie had a trick up her sleeve and boosted her vote counts by a handful, closing the gap between her and the space oni.
Lum still leads by six votes, but with over half a day left with the match, anything can happen.
==============================================
MATCH #15: 6. LUM VS. 27. MARIN KITAGAWA
Not only did a vampire crush Rei, but Asuka essentially won the Asuka vs Rei pseudo-match.
Today, for the penultimate match of Round One, we have old school versus new school with a lovey-dovey ayy oni facing off a lovey-dovey gyaru otaku.
We introduce a real classy lady today. Besides Nausicaä, Lum is the only girl to appear in an anime show pre-90's; in fact, if you count the manga, Lum is the only girl the whole tournament who appeared before the 80's. Her continued presence online and off only shows her power as an anime girl. With the second season of the anime remake going on and going strong, Lum may be "old", but she remains relevant and impactful as ever. There is so much to say about Lum and her series that it would take a whole essay just to get through it all. She is a worthy contestant.
Lum is a Space Oni from the planet Oniboshi. Her father is a high commander of Oniboshi's imperial space forces, which he decides to invade Earth with. He chooses his daughter Lum to represent the Space Onis. To save Earth from destruction, a "champion" from Earth must beat Lum in a game of tag. The champion so happens to be the horn-dog jock and Japanese high schooler Ataru Moroboshi. By sheer dumb luck, Ataru beats Lum and accidentally "proposes" to her, starting a long romance that spans solar systems and decades.
** RR 26. Marin Kitagawa / My Dress-up Darling **
Marin is the new comer of the match. While her win was the weaker ones of the Royal Rumble, Marin still held strong in the hearts of Fedi frens as her infectious smile and bubbly attitude helped her win. She is no flavor of the month, with fan art and merch still pouring in, her manga still going strong, and a second season of the anime coming in a year or two. Her being new might be a disadvantage against the classic space oni, but we've seen stranger results in this tournament and Marin may have the beginner's luck necessary to beat Lum at her own lovey-dovey game.
From the Royal Rumble match:
"Every guy's fantasy is a girl that is simultaneous pretty, popular, and is a complete and utter nerd-dork. Wakana Gojou hit the jackpot finding his sweetheart cosplaying gyaru-otaku from Tokyo. Marin always shows a bubbly light whenever she appears on page or on screen, always the optimist and seeing the best out of anyone but the worst of people.
Even being a relative new comer, her influence in otakuism can be seen with girls like Asuna, Boryeon, and Owari and in the Fediverse with her many fans and her own personal picture bot.
If you love cosplaying cuties, vote for Marin."
With Samus being the Fedivere's best vidya girl and Korone and Tenma being the Fediverse's best chuubas, at long last, we enter the this war's main battles to determine the very simple question: Which anime girl deserves to be the Fediverse's Queen and Official Waifu?
=== MAY THE BEST GIRL WIN ===
This thread will have all the info, rules, data, and announcements going forward, including relevant data.
