Ooo, Albus/Gellert v. Harry/Luna made me go all faint!

[rynankh.livejournal.com]

Wolf/Virginia Lewis!! ^o^ adorable~

[crazedninja.livejournal.com]

Yay, Joseph/Suzy made it in!

[gully-moe.livejournal.com]

Gevanni/Mikami heck yeah.

[mipeltaja.livejournal.com]

In #45, the official spelling is actually Nico Robin.

[shipm-mod.livejournal.com]

I ran across both. But if Nico is the official spelling, I'll go ahead and make a note for the next round. Thanks for the input.

Whatevs on everything else:

I'm tickled that Valjean/Javert made it so far! :D

#61: there is no Don Juan in Much Ado--there *is* a Don John, but I think it's very unlikely that Hero would have anything to do with him (although of course enemy pairings do exist).

[shipm-mod.livejournal.com]

Someone submitted it as Don Juan and so I figured no foul and didn't see the point in changing it once I read the following wikipedia entry. Hmmm I'll probably make the correction if they move on to the next round.

From wikipedia...

"Don John: The name John is reminiscent of King John of England (known as Prince John), who had a reputation for treachery and usurpation of the throne. The Spanish variant is properly Juan, which would likely have been pronounced "djoo-en" in Shakespeare’s day. Also, see Don John, the illegitimate son of Charles I of Spain."

Albus Dumbledore/Gellert Grindelwald (Harry Potter) is canon! :D

[fan-of-miggie.livejournal.com]

Eeee, Harry and Luna! Too bad they're losing. Damn Dumbledore for being canonly gay!

[shipm-mod.livejournal.com]

Oops big mistake. I knew I was putting vowels in the wrong order. *head desk* Thanks for the heads up.

[sockmonkeyhere.livejournal.com]

Hi; I'm new to ship_manifesto and a bit confused as to how these poll tournaments work (who chooses which ships are entered, how ships qualify, etc.) Is there a post somewhere that explains it all?

*gropes about helplessly*

[animeartistjo.livejournal.com]

IT'S COMPLETELY RANDOM. So you get huge fandom 'ships competing against infinitesimal ones. T^T It's very sad.

[animeartistjo.livejournal.com]

Oh dear Lord. Big Wolf on Campus versus SCRUBS? How is it supposed to compete? And how's poor Jeeves/Wooster supposed to compete against the INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN hobbits? Lady Luck does not like my little fandoms. T^T

Gary Oak and Ash Ketchum have the love/hate/rival thing that Hikaru and Touya have but they're so young and such an ancient fandom that I felt incredibly wrong voting for them as a 'ship. XDDD

[ci5rod.livejournal.com]

I feel your pain with Tommy and Merton. Even them taking each other as their prom date isn't going to help against that.

By the way, oh mighty mod of modliness, it's Peregrine *Took*, not Tuk.

[nagasasu.livejournal.com]

...I only voted for 3 ships. Wow.

Also, HOW IS ASUCAGA LOSING TO ISHIME? (GAHHH!)

[omg-a-rock.livejournal.com]

Inorite? D: ASUCAGA. ;_;

But it's losing badly, too. xD;

[kateison.livejournal.com]

Just an 'FYI' - It's Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took for LOTR :))

In other news:

YESSS. Renji/Rukia/Ichigo <3333

[shipm-mod.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much. Noted.

[duckgirlie.livejournal.com]

Dammit. Evan/Cappie against Nick/Greg and Jeff /Tom against Rusty/Danny?

Once again, my tiny OTPs are up against big hitters.

[missing-mile-15.livejournal.com]

I'm somewhat sad about my Harry/Luna OTP losing but pleased Spike/Faye/Jet has made it this far. :)

[lunasariel.livejournal.com]

On #58, It's Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took, not Brandyboc and Tuk.

*waves Dee/Ryo flag*

[emie-took.livejournal.com]

Yay, I was just about to post those spelling errors. Glad someone beat me to it. ^_^

[enisy.livejournal.com]

Whoo, Harry/Luna is winning now! I'm so pleased! Now if only Wolf/Virginia could make a comeback like that... :(

[kristenell.livejournal.com]

WOW, GO KAI/SAYLA! YOU ARRE AWESOME AMAZING! (Totally not expecting them to do that well, although maybe it is because I have no idea who the other people are, but it is not like UC Gundam or (this pairing) in UC Gundam is that talked about.

[carmine-eyes.livejournal.com]

Ah, in #54? It's Tex, not Ted.

GRINDELDORE

[marbles-chan.livejournal.com]

Because we called it even before it was canon :|

[garrideb.livejournal.com]

I was torn between this and Harry/Luna, but these tipped the scale. Thanks! ;-)

[elessae.livejournal.com]

WHAT -

COME ON HAJI/SAYA FANS!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_debbiechan_/]

ISHIDA AND ORIHIME OF BLEACH! My favorite pairing of ALL TIME.

Two fellow nerds in handicrafts class together, two dorks, two people who are slightly out of step with the rest and full of pure intentions and high ideals.

They get along so well, worked like a perfect team in Soul Society. He loves her so much. She's been lost and troubled for so long in the manga now and he's only saved her life, like, uh, four or five times now? TURN AROUND AND NOTICE HIM, ORIHIME!

Some canon images.



and recently, aaah, when he wanted to tell her he was glad she was all right but decided to reassure her about Kurosaki-kun instead. ISHIDA! You know just what to say to make her smile! And her feelings come before yours. T___T

[enisy.livejournal.com]

I used to 'ship them like whoa, but Ulquiorra/Orihime stole my heart and is never letting go. x.x I did vote for them in this poll, though!

[weslea.livejournal.com]

[captainjulieif.livejournal.com]

I know! I couldn't vote - two of my absolute favourite ships against each other! D:

It was traumatic, was it not?

IshiHime

[ichukikuchigo.livejournal.com]

Woot Go Uryu and Orihime! Best pairing ever they are awesome! My OTP <3

Blech...CloTi XP
