| 2:05pm | ｢Saimoe ‘09｣ “Groups G & H, Day 4″ ~ Round 2 Results | | | | Winners: (Ritsu and Ushio tied) and Miyako. I smell conspiracy! Just two days ago Haruhi and Eruruu tied for first.

| 2:05pm | ｢Saimoe ‘09｣ “Groups E & F, Day 1″ ~ Round 2 Results | | | | Winners: Hinagiku and Maria. No surprises there. For Group E2-2, I decided to go and support Yui instead of Rika only because K-ON is a more recent series — plus Rika has already been crowned Saimoe queen once before. For Group F2-2, of course my vote would have to go to Taiga. Poor Ami. Full... | | |
