RESULTS: 2017 Amethyst necklace

[Chibasa]

Who will be crowned? And who will not survive WildCard matches?

[~Baumkuchen-kun~]

Am I surprised seeing it being delayed? No, but I'll be in the corner hoping Mashiro doesn't get the sloppy second a third time in a row. Good luck to all, both prizes and wildcards

[Kurogaga]

Emilia, for the Necklace, and Kazuma for Pendant.
I think it was same as the 6th place one.

[Chibasa]

Results should be up in 10 minutes ~

My intuition says 90% Emilia got it >.> Since Mashiro's won Topaz 3 times in a row, then she might be additionally remembered by getting the 2nd in NM 3 times in a row. That seems to fit the way tricky fate usually works.

Good luck~

[~Baumkuchen-kun~]

GODAMMIT! Mmmmmmmmmmmm. I was hoping she wins before school starts again. Well, I just hope she doesn't get cucked by the new system (Actually got her second here too)
Congrats to Emilia and Nagisa (who I actually voted for )

I suspect Mashiro to wait Emerald to aim for rainbow now

[Homura]

So close but so far away! Kurumi pets Mashiro

[Kordosa]

Mizuno (main character) loses to Kosaka (minor character)... really? Did no one watch Tsuki ga kirei? Or did people vote for Kosaka simply because she appears in a more popular series?

Also, Sento!!!

Anyway, grats to the necklace and pendant winners. Good to see some new faces.

[Chibasa]

My least favorite girl on the 8 won but now I should have only girls I care about on next ones at least.

Nagisa succesffully took me by surprise and stole away a good pendant winner for me too.

I lost 4 characters I really like and 1 I'm neutral too on only 6 characters eliminated, that's pretty sad.

And Sagiri seems to be too OP to be defeated, which is even more sad for me.

*cries in a corner*

Will Nao be awarded something for finishing 8th 7 times?

[houreki]

Emilia beating Mashiro is no surprise for me, but Nagisa winning is a surprise, although i would have prefered any of the other males to win it '

Sento not making it to Saphire is sad ;-;

[Kiwigiwi]

Ughh.. literally my least favorite male and third least favorite female won.

Why Nagisa of all people?

[Kurogaga]

I feel suprised Nagisa won to get the pendant, how satisfied about his "beautiful" score.
Re:Zero will be dominated in female division of necklace, after Rem won in Aquamarine, now Emilia won with different necklaces.
Congrats for both of them.

And, here's the "final" characters, who had lost (or eliminated) in this period:

FemaleShow

Female:
- Hoto Kokoa (at least Rize advanced to the "next period")
- Sento Isuzu (Why she had got eliminated this match? ;n;)
- Senjougahara Hitagi (Oh no, same as Isuzu one, she also eliminated to Saphire)

MaleShow

Male:
- Ikki Kurogane (I think he would give a chance to advanced by wildcard, but there was only expectation)
- Kraft Lawrance (at least, her "fiances", Holo, would be made it
- Ayasaki Hayate (This is the "end" of Hayate no Gotoku in ISML)

Why Nagisa of all people?

Because anime fans prefers "trap" like Nagisa rather than the "real male" one, Kiwi :3

[HasbeenaHibiki]

Surprising that Conan is strong in multi-way matches.

ISML 2017: Mashiro Shiina Foiled Again, This Time By Emilia
Emilia Wins Amethyst Neklace, Nagisa Shiota Takes Amethyst Pendant

By Jo-Ryan Salazar
The Bedlam on Baltic Avenue
August 10, 2017

There is a very real possiblity that Mashiro Shiina might be the strongest female character in the International Saimoe League not to win any prize whatsoever. Of course, there have been instances in the competition where the eventual winner of the Heavenly Tiara rarely won a single necklace in the entire tournament. Emilia has won the Amethyst Necklace, defeated Mashiro Shiina 1582-1478 in the Bedlam on Baltic Avenue's designated Upset of the Round. Megumi Katou came in third with 985 votes. Kurumi Tokisaki was fourth with 749, Shiro earned 527 to finish fifth, Yukino Yukinoshita finished sixth with 439 votes, Megumin came in a disappointing seventh with 369 votes, and Nao Tomori came dead last with 292 votes.

A wide open race in the Male Division for the Amethyst Pendant saw new faces push veteran Yuzuru Otonashi aside. Nagisa Shiota continued his hotstreak, outpunching Saitama in the closest race of the round 1277-1206, Kazuma Satou came in a respectable third with 844 votes, Otonashi was fourth with 662, Archer was fifth with 508 votes, Touma Kamijou was sixth with 392 votes, Souma Yukihira was seventh with 333 and Shirou Emiya was never in the conversation whatsoever, finishing dead last with 195.

The top three vote-getters in the Female Division were Beatrice (1281 votes), Hifumi Takimoto (1180 votes) and Kaori Miyazono (1108 votes). In the Male Divison wildcard, the top three vote getters were the resurgent Conan Edogawa (1028 votes), Takashi Natsume (1008 votes) and Shuu Ouma (897 votes). It was the end of the line for Cocoa Hoto, Hitagi Senjougahara, Isuzu Sento, Kraft Lawrence, Hayate Ayasaki and Ikki Kurogane.

Form followed in Spring Seasonal action to round out a decisive day of voting. Sagiri Izumi, tipped as the favorite to win the Spring Diadem, routed Ao Genmai 2483-352, RyuZu demolished Maya Mikuri 1649-204, Sistine Fibel destroyed Sumire Souma 1883-328 and Akane Kousaka prevailed overt Akane Mizuno 1220-1109.

Match Day 1 of the 2017 International Saimoe League Sapphire Period is scheduled for August 14, 2017. Vote for your favorite candidates at InternationalSaimoe.com and join the ongoing debate. And be sure to keep it here on The Bedlam on Baltic Avenue for continuous calls and continuing coverage of the International Saimoe League, the world's premier anime character competition since 2008!

Mizuno (main character) loses to Kosaka (minor character)... really? Did no one watch Tsuki ga kirei? Or did people vote for Kosaka simply because she appears in a more popular series?

I felt reluctant when choosing Kousaka over Mizuno, for the exact reason you said. I didn't watch Tsuki ga Kirei, but Mizuno should be a nice girl from what I've seen, and that made the choice hard to me. However, Kousaka, tho a minor character in Saekano S2, is a highly ambitious female character that's rare to see, and acts in a manner that she seems not to care about moral factors and how people might see her at all, which is rare as well. Additionally, her sudden appearance, tho a short time, heavily boosted the story development. All in all, I voted for her.

I guess that Ikki and Stella are my favorites after all. And so is Ryuzu.

[Hetaliafan09]

I would of never guessed the AssClass MC would be so strong.

Noooo! Poor Senjougahara and Cocoa.

I know I shouldn't be surprised that Sagiri is so popular but I'm still disappointed in humanity.

[WoodyMC]

Saitama is denied a pendant once again, rip the poor guy.
I actually dont hate this time winners, so somehow it's... good?

Wild card tho, Isuzu ;_;
If anything, seeing Conan doing exceptionally well in multimatch is always a little joy-
