I can't be upset about the outcome. While I'm mildly surprised that it was Kuwabara out of the team that went all the way, Yu Yu Hakusho is a classic and a pretty popular series, so seeing it well-represented isn't a big shock. Congrats to Kuwabara, Team Urameshi, the series, and its fans on the win.

Homura's improvement makes me happy

Hardgore Alice and Hana placing high was nice to see

Seeing those three, Fate, Kyoko, and Sakura all place in the top 25 made me very proud of the magical girl genre. None of them individually placed as high as Nanoha's runner-up finish from last year, but still, it was a great showing overall. Another awesome thing to see was Accelerator riding the Index 3 hype, plus the announcement of Railgun 3 and his own spin-off, all the way to a runner-up finish. Following that performance and Index 3 airing now, I wonder how Touma would do in next year's contest if he got nominated?

And finally, I added Hanayamata to my plan-to-watch list thanks to Yaya's stunning underdog performance. All in all, a great contest.

I retired the Top 20 of the first one, so that we'd have a different contest this time around. So Joseph and Captain Falcon were out. However, I think I won't do that again, and think of another way to get new faces without banning old ones.

Here's my new idea:

1) Only exclude the previous champions (Dio and Kuwabara) from next year's contest, just so we guarantee a new champion.
2) Nominating newcomers would be recommended, but any anime character can be nominated, including returning participants from the past two contests.
3) At the end of the next contest, the third champion (whoever it may be) takes on Dio and Kuwabara in a "battle of the champions" at the end, just for fun.
