Mega Megane Moé
Hell and Heaven Moéltdown
Yuuko can do it – We can help.
Feb 4th
Brought to you by the Moe Depot.
The Saimoe Depot.
The International Saimoe League Depot, to be precise.
In any case, if you’ve clicked on this because you are a die-hard ef fan, or maybe just a casual one, or maybe just someone who likes reading my posts for some reason, you know what duty comes next.
This is the miracle we can pull off. The one that we can bring together with our own hands. The first round has proven it.
Yuuko Amamiya was contending up there with the best of them in the Group 13 of the ISML 2010 prelims in the first round yesterday. And now, I’m firmly convinced that with that extra push, we can bring her into that future that so many of us wish for. That moe – that beautiful character – that we all believe in.
(There are a thousand of us at least, apparently!)
It won’t be easy. But it wouldn’t be as rewarding any other way. We can shape this outcome. We can make this ISML a more brilliant ISML than last year.
It is a story of the “Will”.
Never forget.
You’re not alone.
Carve your confident footsteps into the ground, transcend the seasons, and look up towards the sky.
Even without wings, you’ll make it…
Whether for Yuuko, for ef, for me even, let’s bond together and bring Yuuko to that dream we saw one day, that dream of a future, overflowing with light … with this vote!

ROUND 2 – GROUP 13 – Yuuko Amamiya
Thanks for your time – and please, spread the word! Every vote counts!
Isumi Saimoe League 2010: too lost to lose?
Jan 31st
(As you surmise, the tl;dr of this is Vote For Isumi, but I would encourage you to read the entire article to get a better sense of why.)
The date is Sunday, January 31st, 2010.
The time, 2:00 AM. (Although by the time you read this, maybe closer to 7:00 AM.)
The place, my dorm room, my face lit only by the dim glow of a computer screen and the burning flame inside my heart. A flame that won’t die out. Not for the next nine months.
I sit, and await the dawn.
Not the occurrence every 24 hours, of the glowing orb we call the sun hoisting itself fervently into the sky, but rather, a metaphorical dawn.
The wheels of fate were already turning. Maybe you had already seen it coming.
The forty girls who had already been waiting, certainly had. On the 10th of January, they were joined by the eighty-six hoisted up by the people. Some, veterans. Others, hot-shots.
The long-haired and the short, the mature and the blob-like, the round and the DFC, the young and the … slightly less young.
Beginning now, is the start, of their journey. For some of them, it may be a road they’ve traveled already; others, unfamiliar territory.
But no matter whom, it was clear, that the golden road to the 2010 International Saimoe League would be harder than ever before.
And so, a vehicle must be constructed to traverse this road, a machine powered by passion itself.
I shall endeavor to become its mechanic.

(This post contains no ‘hard’ spoilers, but does name-drop a few characters that don’t show up until later in the third and fourth arcs. No events are explicitly spoiled in Umineko, although I could consider there to be Higurashi spoilers.)

Something was strange.
I somehow got that feeling.
I was sitting in front of the computer, half-watching an episode of an anime of no importance to me. I was half-interested in one of the cute meganekkos, and was about to go search for pictures of her, when I somehow got the feeling that I was about to get some great inspiration for a post.

Something was strange.
I somehow got that feeling.
I was sitting in front of the computer, half-watching a MAD about two anime of no importance to me. I was half-interested in the song that was playing the background, and was about to go look it up when I somehow got the feeling that I was about to get some great inspiration for a post.
