Can't believe there are people still talking about law and wasting their time analyzing and interpreting it as it pertains to separating our powers and ourselves from the federal government.
@nozaki@SuperSnekFriend@udongle I just want to grill and praise wolf wife, for God's sake. You and your newfangled "waifus" can go get me some more beer.
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."

MATCH #13: 3. HOLO VS. 30. SUISEISEKI
Hope everyone enjoyed that tech problems-caused break! We resume the match on what probably is a lopsided fight between a beloved wolf goddess and a feisty living doll known for an ancient internet meme.
We finally have the tourney favorite at long last. Holo may be third seed from technicalities, but she is the expected winner of this tourney for many Fedi friends. She has it all. She's beautiful. She's a monster girl. She's a good lover, wife, and mother. Her series is a classic in every media. Her memes are never stale. Holo is the perfect contestant.
Holo the Wise Wolf is the harvest goddess of the village Pasloe. Feeling the ennui of thanklessly watching a village that doesn't seem to need her anymore, Holo hops one day into the cart of the traveling merchant, Kraft Lawrence. Together, they travel the world with Lawrence teaching Holo about economics and salesmanship and Holo teaching Lawrence her wisdom and how to act less autistically, while they both fall in love. She also loves to drink, especially drinking apple cider, much to Lawrence's chagrin.
** WC 30. Suiseiseki / Rozen Maiden **
DESU! DESU! DESU! DESU! DESU! DESU! DESU!
Two wild cards came from the same Royal Rumble match. One was Wiz and the other is the meme living doll from Rozen Maiden, Suiseiseki. That shows the power of monster girls on the Fediverse. Unfortunately, Suiseiseki is the weaker wild care of the two, and worse still, she has to face the toughest opponent. That does not mean she lacks support. A few Fedi neighbors remember both Rozen Maiden and fondly and by gosh by golly they will try to help their little doll win.
From the Rumble match:
"The third Rozen Maiden and Jun Sakurada's precocious living doll, Suseiseki took the internet by storm when her series came out in the mid-2000's, a time only old fags will remember.
Besides the memes from her favorite Japanese phrase, Suseiseki gained popularity for her beautiful design and her huge feisty personality in one small doll girl package."
What a match! During the night, both girls have continued going back and forth without either finding a large enough gap to say they have a proper lead. Tomorrow will be very exciting.
