Saigar Update: Group H Round 2
Claire Stanfield of Baccanno (277) beats Karaki Zenpachi of Bleach (182) and Roronoa Zoro of One Piece (177). I’m a little surprise that Zenpachi lost here - he did pretty well last year if I recall right - but Baccanno is a popular show this year; I’ve just never seen it.
Ryuuguu Rena of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (271) defeats Ladd Russo of Baccanno (252) and Lloyd Irving of Tales of Symphonia (47). Knew Rena was going to win here, but still had a hard fight with Ladd Russo, another character from Baccanno I must point out.
And so Round 2 finally ends. Now it’s on to the generally more exciting and interesting one-on-one matches. First up is Hosaka vs. Itou Kaiji. Hosaka’s been extremely popular in this tournament, just look at his numbers, but Kaiji isn’t shy to a rabid fanbase either. We’ll see who the winner is when Saigar starts again on the eighteenth.
people are crying cheating for Rena’s victory .
and tonight’s is the rematch for alucard vs november11 vs kino. and kittan vs lunar’s papa vs jonathan joestar.
maybe we’ll get a rematch for Rena too ? admitting it was indeed proxy’ed .

Ok, this has probably been pointed out before but isn’t Rena a girl? I thought for a second that it might be her dad but he didn’t really get a mention at all nor is his name Rena.
I just happened to think SAIGAR was a males only competition.

Somehow I always thought it was more fitting for males.
Honestly there are ton of people who shouldn’t be in this pole (Takano? WTF)
Atleast they got Claire….and yeah he’s pretty GAR. Crazy aswell.

You should give Baccano! a shot. Think you’d like it.

It’s on the backburner of ideas. I got about three other series that I want to watch first, and a couple are fifty episode series, so it’s a guess as to when I might be able to watch baccanno.

Yeah I marathoned Baccano when I had time (last eight episodes) It was a blast.

well, at least try to find time to watch Baccano before the OVAs come out, or else that might ruin it.

Oh, the way Baccano’s presented means that you’d benefit from watching all of it in one sitting or two, if your eyes can’t take it. There’s about three plotlines that take place out of chronological order, so, well, you get the idea. Pretty good way to while away a lazy afternoon…
