well I see the votes are already coming in at a pretty good clip. Gambate Nanoha.
White devil must prevail! Starlight Breaker your opponent into oblivion~
(Sorry for the off-topic post.)
To MaverickRonin and Anonymous Coward:
During the Art vs. Primula battle, you discussed making a visual novel game about a school in which girls were trained in various moe modes.
I am in my base making your game.
Care to join me? It’s your idea after all, and this game will need good writing to compensate for the below-average art.
Nanoha support.

Go SHANA !
Flame Haze FTW !
A wicked-cool, sword wielding, meron-pan eating, tsundere flamehaze…
or…
Just another boring magical girl?
The answer is obvious.
>>Nanoha support.
Paste the link’s in the Address bar, doesnt seemt o open when you click on it, unfortunately.
Nanoha all the way.
Sorry Shana-chan
Love Nanoha.
BUT! I still say Miu-chan should have won. Especially after seeing her in the DAN-DA-DAAAAN! brand new Ichigo Mashimaro OVA!
Anyaaaaaaaan! (A little Sakura-chan lingo there)
OH GOD SHANA IS HOT O_O
A wicked-cool, sword wielding, meron-pan eating, tsundere flamehaze…
or…
Just another boring magical girl?
The answer is obvious.
Hmmm… one of the best magical girls ever…
or just another boring sword wielding, meron-pan eating, tsundere loli…
Of course is the answer obvious.
@sixten
Dear Lord, someone actually went and did it? (Or at least started it) I’m stunned. And “Professor H”!!? Are you planning on making this H or just ecchi? I wouldn’t mind helping with the writting although I’m not to sure how well it would turn out. I found your email on your site so I’ll drop you a line later.
Nanoha.

Back to the regularlly scheduled programing…
Nanoha Vs. Shana is certainly one tough battle. This is the first vote that pains me to choose. They are equal in many aspects, both being gar-moe magical lolis and such. Tsunderes with katanas and talking amulets are cool but Raging Heart is cooler. To break this tie it ultimately comes down to loliliciousness in which Nanoha beats Shana hands down. (Ahh, the good old days when MTG was good.) I have a feeling Shana won’t mind losing this one though. She’s already insecure enough about her chest as it is.
Remember all the good times you spent with Shana, Anonymous.
http://www.sagubooru.com/post/view/67737
Remember.
More of Nanoha kicking ass.
Go Nanoha, the White Devil, you and Fate must make up, by winning your respective rounds in order to avenge Vita and Hayate’s respective loses. Also, they must make up for the fact that no IM lolis made it in.
She seems cute and innocent but if you push her too far you might awaken the “White Devil.”
Shana~
Alastor shall ask nicely for you people to vote for Shana.
Shana Shana Shana
shut up! shut up! shut up! Shana FTW
SHANA CAN BE SHOT.
Goooo Nanoha!
>During the Art vs. Primula battle, you discussed making a visual novel game about a school in which girls were trained in various moe modes. (…) Care to join me?
Oh wow, LOL INTERNET. I never cease to be amazed. I’m actually interested, though I don’t know if I will be of any help, as you can tell by the conversation I had with MaverickRonin in the Art vs Primula thread. I’ll write you an email later.
Nanoha Go Go!
Back on topic, I think this battle is a very tough one. But, in the end, Noizi Itou’s wonderful artwork make me vote Shana (don’t blame me, I actually looked for Nanoha pics in Noizi Itou’s doujins to help me make up my mind, but sadly couldn’t find any).
I think Nanoha is bound to get some votes because of the Nanoha vs Fate final, but Shana is a tough contender. I think it could really go either way.
Nanoha betrayed all of us. She’s not loli anymore.
I gave my vote to Shana.
“Uruchai uruchai uruchai!”
vs
The White Devil speech.
TOO HARD TO DECIDE!
C’mon guys, more votes for Shana! Not only is Shana, but we can’t let the Nanotards take control and turn this into a Nanaha v Fate LOLfest.
Crush them all with your love for Shana!
>>I am in my base making your game.
I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THIS BURNING TRAIN WRECK CALLED LOLI BATTLE GENERATED ORIGINAL CONTENT. CONGRATULATIONS!
I love Nanoha, as a series A’s is among my favourite series ever, but damn this is a hard choice.
I’m not entirely sure I can vote, on the one hand the garmoe goddess, the white devil, Nanoha. On the other side one of the cutest tsundere lolis ever, the katana weilding, melon-pan eating flame haze.
Damn you for making me choose, I want both!
>>Nanoha betrayed all of us. She’s not loli anymore.
Wow, she grew up and filled out in 10 years. Who would have ever thought…..
This isn’t a perma-loli contest. That would disqualify a large part of the field and mostly leave vampires and androids. Maybe a few others, Does Shana age? I don’t think that was ever answered in the anime. Maybe Yuki too, she still kinda looks middle school, which would have began 3 years ago when she was created.
Anyway, back on topic. A quick rundown of the whole bracket gives about 17 perma-lolis including the Rozen dolls, give or take my knowledge of anime I haven’t seen. That’s actually more than I expected but it still cuts the field by 3/4. A little restrictive you think?
>>Tsunderes with katanas and talking amulets are cool but Raging Heart is cooler.
It’s Raising heart dammit!
Anyways, glad I didn’t read any “-tard” so far, because I don’t think anyone that like lolis can be qualified as such. I like lolis, all lolis but in this battle I prefer Shana than Nanoha.
Even if Nanoha is so cute with Yuuno-kun.

How the heck did Nanoha get this far?
She’s an ok I suppose, but her character design is kinda dorky and her personality is bland.
When compared against such prime loli like Hazuki and Becky, (whom she’s already beaten) she’s positively boring.
If she beats out super tsundere Shauna, I’ll conclude that the majority of voters have never watched anything other than Lyrical Nanoha; I can’t see any other explanation for it.

Shutup, it’s not worth talking, when you base everything around retarded logic. If you cant find the charm in Nanoha, then your the only thing that makes ‘nanoha’ bland.
Wait, there’s logic involved?!
Mahou Shoujo a’s > Shakugan no Shana
Theres more kick-ass action sequences in the first episode of MSLN, then there is in the entire 24episodes of SnS. Both loli’s are made of win, but I have to base my vote around something, and since they are both equal in my book; I may as well base it around which anime series is better of the two.. and its Nanoha a’s, hands down!
GoGo White Devil!
>>Wait, there’s logic involved?!
Everything in this battle revolves around logic. Reasonable judgement, is how you would conclude the better of the two loli’s, and that my friend… requires, logic.^_^
>>How the heck did Nanoha get this far?
Not only the anime counts, cute pics too, and Nanoha got this far because of cute pics of her. So cute, so sweet, so innocent, so not SFW.

’nuff said.
>>Not only the anime counts, cute pics too….
Your pics fail to arouse me. Nanoha just isn’ fappable.
>>It’s Raising heart dammit!
I don’t care what the “official” sources say, I know what I heard. Plus “Raging Heart” sounds way cooler than “Raising Heart”
>>Nanoha just isn’ fappable.
The faggotrymeter’s giving signals
>> C’mon guys, more votes for Shana! Not only is Shana, but we can’t let the Nanotards take control and turn this into a Nanaha v Fate LOLfest.
I have nothing against Nanoha and her series. I decided to go Shana because I thought that Shana hitting the finals would actually spice up lolibattle.
And Nanoha already won Saimoe 2005.
Shana.
it’s sad that people are voting against nanoha out of fear for fate. go nanoha! your diligence, decisiveness, conviction, and kindness are far better loli qualities than, well, tsundere-ness (which is really all shana has going for her)
>The faggotrymeter’s giving signals
Nanoha is generic. Fate is better. Vita is better. Hayate is better. Hell, even loli Reinforce is better.
>> Hell, even loli Reinforce is better.
Reinforce Two have the same appeal to me as Dr Evil’s Mini-Me. And I liked the little SOB.
I’ve wanted Shana to go all the way since the beginning of this tournament. & now that Nanoha beat Hazuki in the last round, she’s come to disgust me (Fate too). I really wanted a Shana/Hazuki round, so the shonen-wannabe known as Nanoha can burn in Shana’s flames!

I’m not voting for either….

Yuuno-kun thinks otherwise in this pic O_o

I agree with the fact Hazuki is actually more interesting loli than Nanoha. But Nanoha had enough support materials to get this far. Saying she doesn’t deserve it is… blasphemy! Even if I personally slightly prefer Hazuki and Shana than Nanoha.
Nanoha, she is really cute.
Shana > Nanoha
We must not have a Fate/Nanoha Final!
http://otakudragon.psyche7.net/Pics/b897eef994acf6c9d792552f26c6547f.jpg
Voted Shana.
Do it because Shana is the superiour loli, do it to block a FateXNanoha final, or at the least do it out of spite.
I’m voting for Shana. She’s at least within my top three favorite loli characters period. No offense to Nanoha, but she just doesn’t make the cut for me.
I have been a big fan of Shana for a year now… so I will have to vote for her. However, Nanoha is good as well
Girl You Want
Girl You Want Again
Nuff said. But evidently not.
I’ve always tried to make somewhat of case here that loli does not necessarily mean fappable. But in THIS case, I must make an exception.
Shana for god’s sake….what is wrong with y’all…. =P
To be honest, I was hoping for a Shana v. Evangeline final. Which, of course, would have been the end of me, of course.
Wife: “What are you doing dear?”
Me: “Fapping myself senseless, why do you ask?”
*hrrrr*
Go Slayer with Flaming Hair and Blazing Eyes !
Whip her arse nicely!!! oops, did i just say that…
This battle is boring, the real winner will be decided in the Fate imotou battle. Shana might beat imoto (though if imoto beats fate I soubt it) but against Fate she has no chance. in a Nanoha Fate battle fate should win hands down, she’s just the better loli.
Nanoha is cute, and I can’t help but admire someone who can make friends with people by blowing them into next Tuesday. (Talk about charisma!) But when it comes down to images…I have to go with Shana.

(But my voting against you was inevitable anyway…Fate ftw!)
hm, looking pretty grim for Nanoha. Ahwell, in the end, Fate is the one I want to win. Which is more then just a possibility.
White Devil wins.
shana++
I tried scanning my Shakugan no Shana DVD covers to post as Shana support (gorgeous Noizi Ito artwork beats any old Nanoha picture), but they always came out stripey. I’m guessing my scanner just sucks. This may be a bad omen, but Shana still gets my vote.
O SHANA(da)
O SHANA(da)! Our horny and nasty Loli
True perverse love in all thy Fanboys command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise
The true Loli, strong and sexyyyyyy
From far and wide, O SHANA(da)
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our beloved Loli glorious and sexyyyyyy
O SHANA(da)! We stand on guard for thee
O SHANA(da)! We stand on guard for thee.
Go to hell NANOHA!
You Shana fan-boys sure do know how to flame. I hope Nanoha wins just to spite all you damned flamers. Cant you post one freakin comment that just compliments Shana, without insulting Nanoha. Especially when you speak nothing but BS, when you blatantly make statements such as “ZOMG, Nanoha’s so Bland” and fail to back it up.
Shana easily. I can’t stand magical girls period, I hate their stupid outfits and stupid looking wands.
Imma votin for Shana.
Nanoha. I can’t stand emo period. I really hate the denial and the indecisiveness.
Voting Shana for the lulz
Shana FTW.
Nanoha, in comparison, is boring.
Flame Haze flames and trolls vs. Starlight Breaker flames and trolls GOGOGOGOGO!
Shana FTW… Nanoha is boring. Fate I can support, but all Nanoha has going for her are endless pictures of Raging Heart & a few H doujins.
>But Nanoha had enough support materials to get this far. Saying she doesn’t deserve it is… blasphemy!
“Doesn’t deserve” is a bit strong, yes, but like I said above, the materials you mention are only strong if you already love her. I think this picture alone beats the lot of it, & it’s not that I don’t like cute & innocent; I voted for every one of the IM girls, & would still if they hadn’t been eliminated.
Shana
Nanoha character designs are seriously ugly…
Urusai Urusai Urusai!!!
Shana FTW
We have to vote for the characters we love best, right?
So even if I dread the Fate VS Nanoha battle, I still vote for Nanoha.
I can’t choose btn the two though in case they co0me on top.
I think I will need help with that one.
I vote for Nanoha and that’s the bottom line, cause…Nanoha rules.
And oh yeah, A Nanoha support: http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/3029/nanohayp6.png
>You Shana fan-boys sure do know how to flame. I hope Nanoha wins just to spite all you damned flamers. Cant you post one freakin comment that just compliments Shana, without insulting Nanoha.
In short, no, I can’t. Shana’s OK, & I don’t mind her, but I’m mainly voting for her because I find Nanoha to be far less worthy. As a result of this outlook, the bulk of my commentary is on why Nanoha sucks. Most of the Shana voters, OTOH, either don’t mention Nanoha or say something along the lines of “Sorry Nanoha, but I like Shana more.”
>Especially when you speak nothing but BS, when you blatantly make statements such as “ZOMG, Nanoha’s so Bland” and fail to back it up.
I at least did back it up, though you may not agree with my reasons. Blandness is a matter of personal taste. It’s perfectly valid to argue against one choice rather than for the other, just as long as it’s not a smear campaign, which this isn’t. Also, fanboyism & trolling explicitly allowed, yadda yadda.
Lastly, yes, I realise I’m probably feeding a troll. Nonetheless, said troll made addressable points.
LOL
Dudes. Duuudes. This is fucking Shana we’re talking about here. Nanoha may be gar, Nanoha may be moé, but OH GOD SHANA IS HOT
Make the right choice, voters.
I cast my vote for Nanoha: I’ve enjoyed the anime series; and this is probably the last time she’ll be eligible for this kind of competition because her next anime appearance will be as an adult. So basically, this is the swan song of our loli “white devil”. I thought she would have been pitted agaist the the little sister and Fate against Shana, but this is okay too, just not what I expected. To the person who’s image scans came out stripey, I can offer 3 possible reasons: The scanning surface (the glass your picture passes over when being scanned) may need cleaning; your ink nozzels may be clogged (if your scanner’s an inkjet); or it might be something inherent in the picture you’re trying to scan. I’ve also had that stripey defect pop up in pictures I’ve tried to print and the cause for me was usually one of the three I’ve just mentioned. So you should clean all sufaces that the picture comes in contact with while scanning, and run the test or alinement patterns on your scanner/printer to get the ink flowing smoothly out the nozzles.
I dreaded this battle since the beginning. Desu’s no more, so I don’t really have to fear. Now, choosing beetween two characters I started liking (Unlike two characters I love, but been defeated because of the overused “she’s not loli” argument) seems a bit(?) more difficult than most heavy decisions people take in their lives
Whoever wins, all will lose.
If Shana wins, Fate won’t have that lovely (specially for the yuri-fans) encounter with Nanoha (Given Fate wins next battle)
If Nanoha wins, the finals will be somewhat retarded (Should Fate wins)
Either way, we’ll all lose
And unfortunately, I can say the same about subsequent battles
Still, I don’t like to abstain in votes. Vote abstinence is one of the main reasons bad governors are choosen, and this applies in democracies worldwide. So, with pain in my heart from now on, I had to…
(I voted, but I’m not strong enough to tell you who)
Don’t you all know that Tsundere girls are just annoying bitches that don’t know how to be true to their feelings and love to abuse people… Look at Asuka from Evangelion. Those types are obnoxious to a fault. I mean sure… I like Shana… but Nanoha lacks the annoying Tsundere qualities that make me want to slice people into pieces.
Really, go with the magical girl.
white devil gogogo!
make your way through!
Another…hard…choice…
Damn, should I just vote randomly?
Kind-a-captcha? Moderator? Thas new…
hmm… guess moderator doesn’t like the word ‘Bloodbath’. Or maybe !!!. Testing, testing. If this posts, I’m confused
This one’s a Bloodbath. BLOOODBAAATH!!!
So Shana, of course
go shana!

Your getting way ahead of yourself. Nanoha has not even won(hopeing she does, seems doubtful with the comments though). Tomm is going to be a slaughter feast anyways, regardless.

Doesn’t need that anyway because we all know Imouto-chan is superior.
I voted Nanoha, because Shana is ugly and tsundere is overated.
>>we all know Imouto-chan is superior.
Wrong. Fate>Imouto. Tomm’s vote count will prove that.
For the love of all that is holy, er loli, Shana. Seriously, what is up with the mahou shoujo otaku around here… are you that into ‘lolilicious’ 2D girls that you can actually stand to sit through that dull, cliched, formulaic, vapid crap? Or perhaps I should say 1D girls…
Yes, Shana may be a typical tsundere, but she’s not an annoying bitch for all that. She’s got personality and she. is. a. bad. ass. Plus she’s way more smoking hot than Nanoha and company.
I’m rooting for Shana to take the whole contest… I can see her now, climbing the mountain of her bruised and broken opponents to enjoy a nice view while she munches on a piece of victory melonpan.
>>For the love of all that is holy, er loli, Shana. Seriously, what is up with the mahou shoujo otaku around here… are you that into ‘lolilicious’ 2D girls that you can actually stand to sit through that dull, cliched, formulaic, vapid crap? Or perhaps I should say 1D girls…
Yea, and thats why the ratings stomp Shana’s into the ground. Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha is far from formulaic, its certainly not cliched, and the animation is anything but dull. Infact, SnS animation is inferior to MSLN. Before making a statement, atleast have proof to back it up.

Ah yes, and before I forget. MSLN a’s, has more bad-ass action sequences in the first episode, then that of what SnS had in its entire 24eps run. You are one of two things. A person in denile, or you just lack the analytic ability to see otherwise. Regardless, if you find SnS ’superior’, then you certainly lack something. Would be plausible so assume a brain.

Wait, popular = better? Crap, I guess the stupid kids in middle school were right. >.>Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha is far from formulaic, its certainly not cliched, and the animation is anything but dull.
While I admit I haven’t seen much MSLN (because I’m not into mahou shoujo), what little I have seen didn’t do anything to change my opinon of it — did we see the same show?
>>Infact, SnS animation is inferior to MSLN.
>>Ah yes, and before I forget. MSLN a’s, has more bad-ass action sequences in the first episode, then that of what SnS had in its entire 24eps run.
Yes, MSLN is pretty, but SnS is no slouch in that department either. But if you want to judge things on “this one looks prettier and has rock’em sock’em nonstop action!” then let’s just say your judging criteria are different than mine. I am more interested in characters and plot than visual fireworks, and Shana/SnS wins in that department, hard.
>>You are one of two things. A person in denile, or you just lack the analytic ability to see otherwise. Regardless, if you find SnS ’superior’, then you certainly lack something. Would be plausible so assume a brain.
I think I’ll leave this without a comment… I don’t want to sound bitchy, so I think I’ll let Anonymous dig his own grave again by leaving it at the quote.
Nanoha is not cute.
Fate is hawt as hell and will get my vote but Shana >>>>> Nanoha
Anonymous has been revealed~
>> think I’ll let Anonymous dig his own grave again by leaving it at the quote.
It angers me to no end, when someone insults such a great title! Yes, I may have seemed overly presumptuous, but you really do need to re-watch Nanoha a’s, or something. I’m not sure what made you come to such a dissapointing conclusion, but what you said is anything but what MSLN really is.
P.S. I apologize for the insult, and I do understand we each have our own opinions, but I can only take so much flaming on such a good series, until I have no other choice but to react.

Oh and again Nanoha > Shana?
>We must not have a Fate/Nanoha Final!
Dispite what some might think, this contest is not just a contest of lolis, but also a series vs. series battle. I’m sure that a good many votes made in this tournament are based solely or partly as a result of the show’s popularity. If a given participant has seen the show of one girl, but not the other, then they will most likely vote for the character that they are more familiar with.
Additionally, the policy of using only fan art for confirmational avatars often ends up skewing the results as pople also base their vote on which loli has the best picture.
I don’t think this is quite the burning train wreck yet, but a final that is composed of only one series’ characters will end up becoming the most nightmareish anticlimax (and I’m sure that a really good climax from all these lolis is exactly what we all want.)
Gomen… (I voted… for the Flaming Haze. Nothing personal against Nanoha. In fact, I love Nanoha. But a choice must be made, and anyways, whoever wins is good for me)
>>Gomen… (I voted… for the Flaming Haze. Nothing personal against Nanoha.
You shall never be forgiven. May Nanoha ‘befriend’ you for all eternity.
Shana FTW!
Nanoha gets my vote anyway, but even moreso because of the people voting against her out of fear the contest will have MSLN final.
I didn’t like either animes, but all I have to say is Shana is fucking annoying and not even cute, unlike Nanoha.
NANOHA~~I support you forever~~
This is hard. I love both. This might determine everything too….EH…..I’m gonna go with Shana just because I thought she was badass and her tsundere moe-ness kills me. Nanoha is also good too in her own way…but I think Katana beats staff… OTL gomen nasai Nanoha-chan T-T
>>Before making a statement, atleast have proof to back it up.
Such as that scene where Nanoha shouts at Vita for mispronouncing/forgetting her name. There are also a lot of other inconsistencies in the art/animation throughout the first and second series:
- unnecessary fisheye effect (the one with Fate standing next to a fridge iirc)
- noticeably different art style in one of the Nanoha family dinner scenes
- Nanoha running to the school at night in season 1
- etc
Also, to the like or dislike of others, BEAMSPAM.
uhmm…ijust visiting this..usally i dont enter which is fate is not out there…. i just want to say this..any one who want to be in the finals is FATE X NANOHA is imposible coz shana will kick nanoha’s ass ^^ and of course FATE will kick IMOUTO ass aswell “i dont know if this is her real name” and in the final is SHANA X FATE and of course FATE will win in the end ^^ “sory for being rude ^^ like i just said i was just visit this forum and i dont read the forum as well coz im not interested in the forum which is fate not there i just wanted to say it ^^” (sory if my gramar is bad coz im in a hurry)
i forgot to say this… “nanoha x fate” is hard to be broken..coz there is so many of them.. im just like the other’s that will break that “its not like i just want to break it i just dont like nanoha thats why” my 2 ace in this touenament is HAYATE and FATE against shana but hayate is just fall in the start of the game but in the end i really like to win is FATE… who or what fate will be face she will win “coz that is her FATE!!”
Well, went with Nanoha. Great pairing of characters here, both VERY worthy. I wish the zealots on either size posting spammy flames could just appreciate that.
Either side*, that is.
Also, “beamspam”? Referring to all the massive attacks? That’s one reason Nanoha is so awesome. We need MSLN vs. Touhou! GENOCIDE SHIFT!
Shana FTW. I’m guessing Nanoha’s gonna win, though, simply ’cause the nano-tards want to see Fate/Nanoha.
Actually, I like MSLN, and the last thing I want to see is a Fate/Nanoha final. What’s the fun of having two characters from the same series fight it out? Especially two characters who have fought each other before? (in the series, I mean…)
Besides…it makes more sense to let this battle play out as it will, and save all of the fans’ voting power for carrying Fate to an ultimate victory! =D Fate/Nanoha will just split our strength at the crucial moment - determing who the final winner will be. It’s all strategy!
(Okay, so I’m joking on that last part…but seriously, Fate and Nanoha together at the finals won’t be as much fun as either of them versus anyone else. (Still thinking that Fate will take it all, though, even if she’s against Nanoha at the end.))
i just endet up flipping a coin heads nanoha tails Shana couse i could not make up my mind
it was head so my vote on nanoha
Both are … 鼻血 … erm… Funga~
OMG! I just clicked Shana XD
Well…I like them both & I have either figures.This match I’ll pass.

Don’t mean I like Nanoha or Shana more than the other one,thought.
Opps,sorry.Try again.

Nanoha 2nd Strike!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/Maps_01/NanohaFate.jpg
OH GOD SHANA IS HOT
>>O SHANA(da)
If I was Canadian I might be offended. Nanoha and the Star Spangled Banner….Not sure if I can do it.
>>You Shana fan-boys sure do know how to flame.
Just like Shana apparently.
>>Shana easily. I can’t stand magical girls period, I hate their stupid outfits and stupid looking wands.
You can’t make an exception for the best Mahou Shoujou EVER!
This my toughest vote of the battle but I’ve made a decision and I’m going to stick with it.
WHITE DEVIL 4TW!!!!
Here’s my response (first draft) to Oh Shana(da). If Canada is behind Shana, the US supports it’s elite magical loli strike foce. It helps the the Star Spangled Banner is already about battle.
O say, can you see, by the Jewel Seed’s light,
What so proudly we hailed at the Breaker’s last gleaming,
Whose white dress and flat chest, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the Heart’s pink glare, the spells bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our loli was still there;
O say, does that Mahou Shoujou yet Reign
O’er the land of the pedo and the home of the depraved?
On the shore, dimly seen thro’ the mist of the deep,
Where the Book of Darkness in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream
’Tis Takamachi Nanoha Oh! long may she reign
O’er the land of the pedo and the home of the depraved!
And here is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
A home and a Time-Space should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footstep’s pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,
And Takamachi Nanoha in triumph doth Reign
O’er the land of the pedo and the home of the depraved.
Oh! thus be it ever, when Mages shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation,
Blest with vict’ry and peace, may the loli-rescued land
Praise the Pow’r that hath made and preserved our Team!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In Lolis is our trust.”
And the Takamachi Nanoha in triumph shall Praise
O’er the land of the pedo and the home of the depraved.
Nanoha, don’t have time to write anything else ~-~
NANOHAAAAA!

P.S.
We should give MaverickRonin his very own shine! XD
Either a landslide victory or an epic fight is shaping up.
All relevant characters have already been kicked out.
VOTED FOR SHANA!!!Tsundere rocks!!!
Voted for Shana, although a Nanoha/Fate battle is forthcomingO_O….
>All relevant characters have already been kicked out.
Sup’
I voted for both of them last round, so it’s tough, but my vote goes to Shana
Shana… Is hot.
And that, is all I have to say.
Shana
Almost 1.3k votes! The battle is turning out to be either epic or one-sided.
- unnecessary fisheye effect (the one with Fate standing next to a fridge iirc)
- noticeably different art style in one of the Nanoha family dinner scenes
- Nanoha running to the school at night in season 1
- etc
I wouldn’t even consider the School scene at fault, it looked like beautiful CG affects to me. The other two, I fail to remember, though it has been over a year since ive viewed it.
Anyways, let me point out the many flaws in SnS. As it is simple to insult the few flaws of MSLN, without having someone do the same to SnS.
The artwork is incredibly rushed; the characters appear two (or less) dimensional. And yes, the main character isn’t as engaging as she could be - and borders on annoying at times. For all of its flaws, this series managed to keep a minute amount of enjoyement within me.
Shakugan no Shana starts mercifully on a high note, with an interesting twist on an otherwise cliched storyline. Unfortunately, it is not long before the marionette-like expressions, lack of detailed side characters and lifeless backgrounds begin to permeate the atmosphere with a feeling of laziness on the director’s side, and lack of time on the animators’ - as though each episode was finished late on a Friday evening… and it’s karaoke night.
*Skips a few hundred lines* The ending! Yes, if I had but one word to sum it up, then anticlimactic would do just that. Nothing was resolved, and everything was left open-ended. What’s the point of an interesting premise, when the creators fail to compensate its climax, with its just deserves.
Now, you can blissfully flame MSLN to your hearts content, but regardless, it is superior to SnS. Almost every forum based thread pertaining to SnS will inevitably end up in a flame war of how terrible it actually is. Which is not an internal problem with MSLN.
Dont agree with me? I dont care! Now I say this to you, Urusai Urusai Urusai!

So I herd you like proxies
>>So I herd you like proxies
lol.. The same exact thing came about during the Ilya/Imouto battle.
Anonymous ~ Imouto isn’t going to win
Anonymous2~ Under normal circumstances, maybe
Anonymous~ What, proxies?
Anonymous2~Exactly!
Though I dont know whether or not they really went through with it; regardless, both sides proxy vote, thats a given.
Flaming katanas bring me joy. ^^
Well..if Nanoha wins, and Fate wins, any flaming that is going on here will be completly overshadowed by a Nanoha vs Fate battle. Sigh…
Anyway, my vote goes to Nanoha.
My vote is for the wonderfull Nanoha. SHe can “befriend” me anyday. This is a great battle…both characters can beat the %#@$ out of eachother…literally
Must have yuriloli battle! Go Nanoha!
DAMMIT what are you thinking people!! i command all to fap in unison for teh glorious SHANA!!!!! fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap..
“- noticeably different art style in one of the Nanoha family dinner scenes
- Nanoha running to the school at night in season 1″
God are you retarded, those were several of the very few instances of good animation and style in the series. Get some fucking glasses idiot.
Voted for Shana. No need for a nanotard finale.
1400 votes? There hasn’t been this much ballot stuffing since the Suiseiseki debacle. You people should just accept having one vote and live with it.
This is not strictly true. There were a number of characters and shows that I was not familiar with that I ended up watching due to these battles. Some I liked. Others I though were crap.
This is the semifinals~ While proxy voting is probably inevtably going on. Yuki/Nagato hit near 1,400, so its only natural for this one to hit even higher, since it is the Semi-finals.
>>Yuki/Nagato
I meant Fate/Nagato, ofcourse.^_^
>>Yuki/Nagato
I meant Fate/Nagato, ofcourse.^_^
Why would people even proxy vote? You think Shana/Nanoha would be happy if you cheated for them to win?
How do you proxy anyway? that’s what i want to know…..
>How do you proxy anyway? that’s what i want to know…..
Open google and type proxy. Also, is almost time to finish.
>> >>O SHANA(da)
>>
>> If I was Canadian I might be offended.
I am Canadian and i find that very offensive, its just plain degrading for Shana.
Brace for impact!
>>”Why would people even proxy vote? You think Shana/Nanoha would be happy if you cheated for them to win?” -Eleutheria
Well…Shana will probably cut you and Nanoha will probably Starlight Breaker you. So…I don’t think its a good idea. Besides I think this fight seems perfectly fine although Shana isn’t getting talked about much compared to Nanoha. Hopefully this battle will be a close and fair fight. gambatte min’na~
Can’t…. handle…. suspense…..
Need results badly…
