Finally, here is the submission results:

PRELIMINARY POLLS WILL BE UP TUESDAY 7/25 @ 12PM EDT

tags: preliminaries matches (the actual polls, not including any reblogs) bracket info propaganda

INFO UNDER CUT

✨✨There were a couple of submissions that were openings, rather than endings, so those have been removed. (So there were 700 valid submissions, 702 total submissions)

✨✨Songs that only got 1 or 2 votes will not be advancing.

✨✨At most 2 songs per series will be allowed in the bracket.

✨✨There were five series that had more than 2 qualifying songs (Chainsaw Man, Fullmetal Alchemist, Hunter x Hunter, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and Naruto).

✨✨There will be FOUR preliminary polls for these series. They will be a week long.

✨✨There will not be a preliminary round for Fullmetal Alchemist, because Uso and Shunkan Sentimental had many more votes than the other three submissions so I will just be putting those in the bracket automatically.

✨✨For HXH, JJBA, and Naruto, I will be putting the top voted song in the bracket, and the rest will battle to the death for the other designated spot. (I didnt do this for CSM bc it was a three way tie lol.) The endings that will be advancing for these series are:

"Hyouri Ittai" by Yuzu

"Roundabout" by Yes

"Wind" by Akeboshi

✨✨The Preliminary Polls will be:

💥Chainsaw Man (2 winners)

"Fight Song" by Eve

"First Death" by TK from Ling Tosite Sigure

"Hawatari Nioku Centi" by Maximum the Hormone

"In the Back Room" by syudou

"Tablet" by TOOBOE

"Time Left" by ZUTOMAYO

💥Hunter X Hunter (1 winner)

"I Want You" by Savage Garden

💥Naruto (1 winner)

"Broken Youth" by NICO Touches the Walls

"By My Side" by Hemenway

"Rainbow" by Vacuum Hollow

"U Can Do It!" by DOMINO

✨✨With the prelims, the total number of songs that will be advancing to the bracket is 62. I will not be doing any other preliminary rounds to fill in the last two spots, because I'm busy, and I really dont want to do polls for the 55 songs that got 2 votes, only for 2 spots. I will either have the bracket just be 62 songs OR i will use my godly powers to just put in two of the other songs that i like. its a surprise teehee.

[recentanimenews]

Bookshelf Briefs 11/13/17

Anne Happy, Vol. 7 | By Cotoji | Yen Press – It’s sports festival time, and out heroines are doing their best to at least survive the events, though in Botan’s case that may be difficult. The volume consists of what you’d expect—everyone’s quirk is in full force, the Unlucky Class ends up very very far behind in the rankings, mostly as they’re up against a sports class that compete in national events. Sayama continues to attempt to get over her terminal shyness, and makes small strides. Small strides is in fact the point of this series, as the class in general is doing OK but not well enough to make it in the world. This may become more important later on. In the meantime, Anne Happy is unassuming and cute, with minimal ambition. If you enjoy cute girls falling over, you’ll like it. – Sean Gaffney

Black Clover, Vol. 9 | By Yuki Tabata | Viz Media – We wrap up the Battle with the Midnight Sun here, and our heroes spend some significant time recovering—though for Asta, that time may end up being far longer than he’d really like. We also end up seeing Yuno again. Remember Yuno? Asta’s rival who we saw at the very start of the series? He’s back, and of course is ridiculously strong. The rivalry between him and Asta has ridiculous amounts of BL tease, because this is a Jump manga, but I’m fine with that. There was also a nice non-reveal with a masked captain of Yuno’s unit, who turned out to be masked for different reasons than we’d thought. In any case, new arc should start soon, as we try to figure out how to heal permanent damage. – Sean Gaffney

Demon King Daimaou, Vol. 3 | By Shoutaro Mizuki and Souichi Itou | J-Novel Club – There is one reason that the jaded light-novel fan should give this book a try, and that’s the appearance of the villain, Mister X, who is over the top crazy and in his desire for villainy and despair that is “Art!” reminds me of nothing less than an evil Great Gonzo. Other than that, it’s situations normal at Daimaou, Inc. We get a bit more depth for Hiroshi, Akuto’s fanboy, but it doesn’t really work nearly as well for me, as the characterization feels off from the prior two books. And there are the heroines, with Korone getting a nice fakeout “I am going back to be executed” moment, Keena being Akuto’s conscience, and Junko being, well, Junko. Daimaou is a perfect buy for those who have to buy everything. – Sean Gaffney

Dreamin’ Sun, Vol. 4 | By Ichigo Takano | Seven Seas – This was a super shoujo-riffic volume of manga, even though there are some funny bits too (particularly the bonus comic). Shimana encourages Zen’s brother, Ken, not to give up on his boxing ambitions, and in gratitude he shows her Fujiwara’s high school yearbook, which only brings up more questions. In between, there are Christmas presents and bittersweet longing and earnest conversations about dreams. Also, there are at least three and probably more scenes that involve Shimana tearfully running away from a conversation and slamming a door. It’s repetitive, yes, but at least she doesn’t ever spend very long in a sulk. I enjoy Asahi stirring the pot and Zen being a good, sweet friend, but I’m not sure I want Shimana and Fujiwara to get together. He’s right—she is still a kid. Maybe Zen will win her over in the end with his panda wiles. – Michelle Smith

The Girl From the Other Side: Siúil, a Rún, Vol. 3 | By Nagabe | Seven Seas – The beginning of this volume is super tense! Shiva’s aunt has come for her, accompanied by several of the soldiers that only recently were trying to kill her, and Teacher does his best to rescue her, to no avail. One particularly impactful page-turn, revealing Teacher struck by many arrows, made me realize that because this series is so unique, there’s no variations-on-a-theme template to rely upon and, as a result, I really believed Teacher could actually die. He doesn’t, but what happens when Shiva gets back to the village is dramatic enough, along with a cliffhanger about her real origins. The art continues to be a delight, as well—I particularly love the panels that emphasize Shiva’s smallness and the nonverbal depiction of Teacher’s devastation after she’s gone. Now to manage the four-month wait for volume four! – Michelle Smith

Girls’ Last Tour, Vol. 3 | By Tsukumizu| Yen Press – The odd finally manages to win out over the cute for this volume of Girls’ Last Tour, though that’s not necessarily a bad thing. We see again and again how depressingly apocalyptic this world the girls are traveling through is, and on more than one occasional it almost leads to their horrible deaths. They also meet someone in the final section, though this is a robot rather than a human—but the essential story beats remain the same. And there’s even some fanservice for anyone interested. I’ve said before that this reminds me of Strawberry Marshmallow, and I wouldn’t be surprised if this was Miu’s bizarre self-insert fic with her and Chika—though I suspect it’d earn her a smack or two. Oddly compelling. – Sean Gaffney

Kuma Miko: Girl Meets Bear, Vol. 6 | By Masume Yoshimoto | One Peace Books – Well, I did ask for more of the bear, and I certainly get that here. Unfortunately, I also get another bear, who’s painted as the obsessed female stalker of our main bear. The humor that follows, showing a tsundere bear trying to be seductive (and failing), only works about one third of the time. It doesn’t help that the series already has a tsundere, Hibiki, and we get an amusing chapter devoted to imagining what might make her actually confess. Honestly, though, the highlight was the final chapter, where the bear tries to get Machi to take a train as part of his “make her a functioning adult” plan. It doesn’t work—she gets on the wrong train, and is now at the ocean. Will she die? Probably not. – Sean Gaffney

Murcielago, Vol. 4 | By Yoshimurakana | Yen Press – This series continues to play to a very limited audience, the sort who likes lesbians and likes sociopaths, and REALLY likes the combination of the two. If that pleases you, this volume will too, though be warned another sympathetic cutie is butchered horribly. As for Kuroko, she’s actually out of commission for part of this, having been brainwashed by the head villainess of the book. Fortunately, we needed some more characterization for Chiyo, Kuroko’s yakuza girlfriend who’s in a state of constant rage from, well, dealing with Kuroko’s tendency to bed anyone female. Spoiler: she’s badass. As for Rinko, the child killer from last time… well, I don’t want to spoil it. Suffice to say I laughed, but it was rueful. Murcielago is hilarious and you will feel bad. – Sean Gaffney

My Monster Secret, Vol. 8 | By Eiji Masuda | Seven Seas – I suspect it’s going to be harder and harder to drag out the “we’re not really dating” card after the ending of this volume. Which is fine, as I will freely admit that the relationship between Asahi and Youko is one of the two best reasons to read this book. The other is the humor, and there’s plenty of that on display as well, as we see angel feathers that make people act out the Seven Sins; Koumoto-sensei celebrating another birthday of being a single woman, as no one will let her forget; and Nagisa getting turned big (as opposed to being in her alien suit) in order to once again fire up the love triangle. There’s stuff that doesn’t work (anything with Shimada), but this series still has more hits than misses. – Sean Gaffney

Requiem of the Rose King, Vol. 7 | By Aya Kanno | VIZ Media – Wow. And also “holy crap.” I’m going to completely forego any spoilers this time, because the surprises in this volume need to be experienced as they come. Suffice it to say that Richard does not handle the revelation about Henry’s true identity well, and Henry doesn’t handle captivity and his lusty feelings for Richard well, either. All of these sad, broken people being crushed by… well… the game of thrones. Although a smidge of me still dares to hope Richard will find happiness by the end of the series, the ending of this volume suggests otherwise. I actually had to look up whether the series was concluding in the next volume, though that doesn’t appear to be the case. I should have known better than to choose something else for pick of the week, even if it was my beloved Chihayafuru! – Michelle Smith

Toriko, Vol. 40 | By Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro | Viz Media – Still counting down towards the end of this series. At least Toriko gets to add another item to his menu, meaning he only has two to go. But unfortunately, this one is more about the ridiculous fights than the ridiculous food, and whenever that happens it’s never good news. The author is better at food porn. He’s also better at ho yay, as the reunion of Toriko and Komatsu is loaded with an absolute ridiculous amount of subtext—I would not blame readers for forgetting Rin exists. As for the evil plot, it creeps incrementally forward, leading to a cliffhanger as Toriko and company finally challenge God. I’m finishing the series as I’ve already read 40 volumes, but it’s only for the hardcore now. – Sean Gaffney

By: Michelle Smith

[himitsusentaiblog]

I have a unique Top Ten list for ya: Top Ten Female Tokusatsu Heroes.

A topic near and dear to my heart!  Yes, I admit I have a weakness for the women of tokusatsu but then, anyone who follows my blog for long would realize that pretty quick. So, I’m pretty glad to get a question like this I can indulge that love with.

I’m going to limit this to one heroine pet series though I thank you again for not limiting it to one franchise.  That makes this a lot more fun for me and I can bounce around as I see fit. Still, it’s going to be pretty Super Sentai heavy for obvious reasons.

10. Konomi Amagi from Ultraman Mebius played by Misato Hirata

A former preschool teacher before joining GUYS Japan, Konomi joined the team for the sole purpose of protecting all of the children of Japan.  She’s kind, a bit shy and has a love for cute monsters including Miclas and a tiny version of the Ultraseven foe Eleking. She generally stays at the base working as an operator during missions to keep communication lines open between field agents but she goes into the field when they need her to use the Maquette Monster system which creates artificial monsters that can fight for a limited amount of time.  Miclas only listens to her.

9. Anri from Special Megabeast Investigator Juspion played by Kiyomi Tsukada

This may be a cheat considering she’s a robot but I love Anri.  While most robots on TV are cold, emotionless and stilted, Anri is none of those.  She’s excitable, passionate and goofy.  Of course, she has a few robotic problems like the inability to float and freezing up every now and then. Even if she is a bit silly, she keeps Juspion focused on his mission and not distracted by every pretty woman who walks by.

8. Sara from Choushinsei Flashman played by Youko Nakamura

Unlike Anri above, Sara is human but raised on an icy planet in the Flash system. She’s a bit cool and intellectual and the smartest member of the Flashman team.  She does have an emotional side though, wanting to find her parents back on Earth.  She’s also good friends with her team member Lou. When it comes to battle, she can analyze the attacks and weaknesses of her foes to better aid her team in the fight.

7. Hisako Koyama from Special Rescue Police Winspector played by Sachiko Oguri

Hisako is here because I just love every episode she’s a major part of in Winspector.  She’s not one of the suited heroes but instead a coffee shop owner who is a secret member of the team. I can’t really put a finger on why I like her so much.  Maybe it’s her super late 80s fashion sense.  Maybe it’s her inability to carry through on her plans with her little brother because of her Winspector responsibilities that makes her so relatable.  Maybe it’s just that she’s a tough woman who isn’t defined by being tough.  Any way you slice it, I really like Hisako.  

6. Ami Mizuno from Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon played by Rika Izumi

I don’t talk about the 2003 Live-Action version of Sailor Moon much and that’s a shame because it is my favorite adaptation of Naoko Takeuchi’s magical manga masterpiece. Chief among the reasons why is that version’s take on Ami/Sailor Mercury.  She was Usagi’s first companion and he closest friend on the team which made the story arc where Ami was corrupted to evil all the more heartbreaking.  I have always been a fan of Sailor Mercury so having such a great live action version ensured her a spot on this list.

5. Rei Tachibana from Kagaku Sentai Dynaman played by Sayoko Hagiwara

I had to include a Sayoko Hagiwara character here because I love her performance in just about everything she’s been in and there is no more iconic role for her than as Dyna Pink. She’s an inventor who dreams of creating a machine to facilitate communication between humans and animals.  She’s also a world class fencer and though she hates fighting, she does so for the sake of the dreams of others and protecting her own ideals.  

4.  Rui Takada from Ultraman X played by Haruka Momokawa

The second character from an Ultra Series to appear on this list and the most recent heroine here is the enthusiastic engineer from Xio. She’s a teenage genius who invents a lot of tech for the team and loves monsters.  I just love her enthusiasm and smarts, she’s also tough when she has to be and has a thing for Ultraman Zero.  She loves the bad boys.

3.  Commander Aya Odagiri from Choujin Sentai Jetman played by Mikiko Miki

The first female Commander of a Sentai team, Aya Odagiri was a tough, no nonsense military officer of the Earth Defense Sky Force. Though Ryu was the team leader, he took his orders from her and she was not the kind to brook any kind of disagreement with her orders.  You just have to love anyone who can boss around super powered heroes with only her authority and force of personality to back it up.

2. Ahim De Famille from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger played byYui Koike 

Ahim is a Space Princess without a kingdom, her home taken from her by the forces of Zangyack.  Yet, she isn’t bitter or hardened by her loss.  She’s the heart of her team, the voice of mediation when things get rough and the one everyone can go to for support and reassurance. When you need someone to negotiate, she’s your choice.  She’s also pretty awesome at kicking butt in a floofy dress. She is the best pink ever, the pinkest pink who ever pinked.

1. Tsuruhime from Ninja Sentai Kakuranger played by Satomi Hirose

Coming as no surprise to anyone who knows me, I have to give the top spot to Tsuruhime.  She’s the reason Kakuranger is my all time favorite Super Sentai series. The actual leader of the team, she was the first woman to head a Sentai group.  She was also the most competent member and had a fantastic story arc involving the fate of her Father.  Considering the rest of her team, she had a job ahead of her holding that group together and keeping them focused on the task at hand.  This is a woman who could herd cats and get them to (mostly) behave.  I love Tsuruhime and always will!

Aside from the top spots, this is a highly subjective list from day to day.  This is how I feel right now as of this moment but these lists are always based on how I am feeling at that moment. Hope you enjoyed it though and thanks, as always, for the question!
