Eligible characters from various ongoing series and popular characters from past series are seeded, placed into voting brackets and voting is done until there's only one left. The whole thing is supposed to determine who the most "moe" character currently is, but it ends up being a huge popularity contest instead. The tournament has been dominated by Nanoha/Rozen Maiden characters. I think CCS's Sakura won in 02' though, not sure. Saimoe is a character tournament of sorts, it’s organized primarily by 2ch.

As you can see, there were MANY things wrong with it, but I still enjoyed watching it =\ @ kaz3phyrous: Wow, Orinal made it in? I find her kinda annoying, so that surprises me. I thought the ending did a great job in tying everything up, though it could have done without all the random sparkly effects, those were really distracting. @ Siva: It was really hard to give this series a rating.

i have to say that the last episode was great… even if it didn’t show kayo… it at least gave closure and showed how nono and mugi’s character developed… upon watching the subbed version i noticed that katsuragi gave his second button to chitose, i didn’t notice that in the raw…

the rooftop scene was powerful… it was great seeing how the drama research society helped both of them develop and mature…
