Edgeworth, Bowser, and Luigi also seem surprisingly low to me, and the entire 7-8 group is higher than I would have expected.

Yesterday's results:
- Sonic the Hedgehog > Samus Aran, 17-11
- Maya Fey > Sephiroth, 17-12

These margins are plenty interesting in their own right: Sonic had maybe the best match of his life, in any GameFAQs setting, but will he be able to stand up to a high-tier Ace Attorney character the way Knuckles thoroughly wasn't? On the other side, Sephiroth lost by exactly the same margin as Travis Touchdown two rounds ago: not terribly surprising, but it makes me wonder if Travis had actual strength or if low-vote wonkiness is responsible.

However, there was something more surprising to make note of this time: the strong correlation between votes for each winner / votes for each loser. Specifically, 12/17 Sonic voters also opted for Maya, while 7/11 Samus voters also opted for Sephiroth. At certain points in each match, their blocs looked even more monolithic.
