I don't think Satenfags do. They'd probably argue that she was moe even if nobody cared about her but a handful of spammers, because there is nothing particularly interesting about her.

>> No.6256959

Saten was a great character, undoubtedly the best in the show (at least from the four main girls). Again, she was the only one of the four to go through a personal conflict and receive significant development.

Never seen Saki, but I feel safe assuming Koromo is just an "UGUU I'M CUTE? HEY LOOK I'M CUTE"-type from beginning to end.

This is why modern anime is absolute shit and why I can't enjoy a not-completely-shallow character like Saten on a board such as /a/.

>> No.6256962

Saimoe is heavily biased, full of proxies, and it looks entirely different from year to year.
For an example, Fate managed to come pretty far this "season". The last time she did good was when her actual series aired, then she was more or less forgotten and only scored sub par results in these competitions, but now there were recently this new movie adaptation after all these years, and all of a sudden she got placed in the top again.

We could say that she have always been in the top because she managed to place there once before, but then again she was more or less forgotten years after that, all the time until this new movie.

Each saimoe is only a new fad, be it whatever company and title there is. If it's hyped, it can score good once, and then it lies in the past forever unless someone digs it up.

Don't fool yourself, Saten might do decent next time, but she isn't in the Index season, but her result will be sub-par compared to this time, and the next season she will score really bad compared to now if they don't make a railgun s2 or something.

It's all just about fads, and there are proxies and mindless personal armies everywhere.
I abandoned these popularity contests long ago (mind you that it's not a competition of moe, it never was, it's just a popularity contest, using "moe" for publicity.)

This time Saten lost, but don't delude yourself into beliving that she didn't get massive proxy votes, just like the opposite side.
Then there is the personal army aspect, where people rally people who otherwise wouldn't even care, into voting anyway. And yet again, this applies to both sides.

Saimoe is shit, and it doesn't say anything.
Good thing Saten is gone now anyway, it all just started because some faggot's spam on /a/, and god knows why it spread here for no reason even though it's spam and unrelated.

"Personal conflict"? "Significant development"? Please, there was so much forced drama, it made Clannaid look touching.

Uiharu had far more screentime and even more character developement than Saten when she reacted to what Saten was doing, and working towards saving her, combined with when she tried to fix things for her old psycic friend, you know, the friend who was a friend of Banri-chan.
There was also her backstory and how she got involved with her work, and how she felt towards that work then, compared to later in the show, and how things became complicated and conflicting for her when things started to happen in her life.

Saten? She had her story, but she had not nearly as much screen time and it was not much compared to Uiharu's at all.
But you know what? The don't fool yourself that the girl who has the most developed character and goes through the most character developement in the most gripping/touching story isn't any other than the main girl, Biribiri also get this shit out of /jp/, just why is this even here?

Obviously, it's about finding the girl who is currently the most loved in the hearts of the fanbase. You can't do anything about people forgetting, despite how people claim undying love for their waifu, if they don't get new material with her their love will stagnate and next year, if not next season, they'll move over to another love. Characters that haven't featured in some kind of anime production recently aren't even allowed to compete.

The best thing for a character is to air, win, then disappear as they are never aired again. They won't have to fade so obviously into obscurity, and nobody can fairly deny that they were moe.

In either case, saimoe isn't about moe, people on /jp/ have stated this repeatidly throughout the entire thing.
It's just a shitty popularity poll, and it have been heavily biased and full of proxies for ages.
I bet the majority of /jp/ didn't vote at all, or possibly voted against Saten because of all the spam.

-She made it further than any other character from her show, even the "main" character Misaka.
-She went against a K-On character and won. And K-On is a show that revolves around moe.
-She beat Fate, a previous Saimoe runner-up.

Why can't we be content with that? Saten, a level 0 with no special powers, did incredible, finishing in the final 8, and I'm very proud of her!

Popularity != Moe
Moe is more or less what is attractive, or more correct, what you fnd attractive.
Something unattractive can in theory be popular due other merits.

And now, don't go all retard here as a lot of people from other boards.
Attractive things aren't solely about looks, in fact, disregard the looks entirly for a bit, and first look at all other aspects, and then add it together with the looks for a complete package.
If the complete package is attractive to you, then it's moe.

It started out as aderivative term of moeru, and was at first simply things that turned people on, but it has since then gotten a much more overall generic usage, so it's not simply sexual anymore even though sex can be a factor.

The only good thing about Railgun from a storytelling perspective was actually how they handled Saten's character development.

The way she introduced herself as level 0, already hinted at the fact that she cared more about her level than she claimed, and the downward spiral throughout the following episodes being confronted with her powerlessness again and again to her complete breakdown was actually done at quite a believable pace.

The other characters remained rather bland in comparison. Kuroko was only a comedic-relief/fanservice character, Misaka, even though I liked her in Index, was incredibly bland and at used like a mary-sueish plot-device rather than being treated like a proper character, and Uiharu, while definitely more interesting than the other two, wasn't explored to a similar degree either.

Not mad bro, btw. I've enjoyed watching Saki as well, and I like Koromo. I just prefer Saten.

Their whole getting together and doing stuff with higher level people, had it's turn on Saten, but likewise it was something Uiharu sensed, that's why she talked to her about it, trying to comfort her.
Then they came into contact with the level upper, and Saten's story went up and running, likewise at the same time, Uiharu got increasingly more suspecting and worried.
You get to see how Uiharu was like back in the day, and how she have grown to consider what she can and cannot do and how she can grow to do more of what she can do in order to be able to do more of what she couldn't do more in the past.
But then Saten loses it, and goes offline for an amount of the story's time, a time while Saten doesn't do anything.
Meanwhile, Uiharu goes through a mental conflict of how she could have let Saten's mistake slip through, failing to save her pro-actively, then instead focusing her all on trying to set things right for her by focusing on work, by doing more than before. But such things aren't allowed to go easily, and people react to her change and her overworking herself, to the point when things starts to interfere.
At which point Uiharu's story's moves towards it's climax and while she adapt to the situation and how to proceed doing something for what she deems she have to, and from there on things happen.
Meanwhile Saten is out of the story, and when she wakes up, everyone's (and Uiharu's) struggles make her realize how she was wrong with things, people gets kidnapped, she grabs a baseball bat and saves everyone.

But Saten's story served as the trigger for everyone elses stories, and foremost Uiharu's. Then their struggle's served as what resolved Saten's, while Saten didn't do much of anything other than realizing that what had been going on after she woke up.

That's not exactly incorrect(even if I liked her), though I think it that steroids isn't an accurate comparison from the beginning.
They were all like "level upper is bad cause it's cheating" with no mention of "level upper is bad cause it's unknown shit that fucks with your brain".
And the "cheating" part is invalid anyway, since it's more like a cripple using prosthetic limbs to be able to walk at all rather than a sportsman using steroids to run faster.

What you describe is that the plot around Saten also provided character development for Uiharu - and as I said, Uiharu and Saten were the most interesting characters of the show, considering they actually got some character development.

However, your initial argument that Saten's character development "was made" to develop Uiharu's character isn't present in your argument. The fact that Uiharu receives character development does not suffice to prove intention.

And whether that was the case or not (which really only the author knows for sure) does not change that from a storytelling perspective, Saten's character development was technically well done - which surprised me, considering the general quality of the show.

But it was foremost what everyone else did while she did nothing, who changed her.
And everyone changed in various degrees while she was out of it.

And in the end, Saten just went down quick because she couldn't find comfort in what people told her when they tried to prevent something like it from happening, and then she went up just as quick and it was all resolved by everyone setting her straight by repeating things, and showing her what she had missed, and how people had gone out of their ways meanwhile.

And yes, she did swing the bat, the post even says she did.

You know, /jp/ can have good discussions even if it's a fringe topic.

Saimoe is nothing fringe.

Saimoe, if anything, is as /jp/ related as it can get.

Do you really despise anime that much? A character popularity poll hosted on a Japanese message board that require you to jump through hoops so that only the most dedicated otaku can post seems pretty otaku culture to me, but I guess anything anime-related is the devil.

You have some serious problems with reading comprehension.

Then please tell me what your problem with Saimoe is, and why it is nothing fringe.

>> No.6257659,9 [INTERNAL] 

>>6257659,8
It is nothing fringe, because as >>6257659,5 said, Saimoe is as /jp/ related as it can get.

This thread you bumped isn't about Saten, it's about Saimoe.

OK, I will bump a Saten thread next time, if that is what you want.

You bumped this thread because you thought it was "the good old days Saten megathread".
It wasn't.

Keep up the good fight though.

>>6257659,11
Ah, I understand now. No, I bumped it because people have been asking to bump good old threads on the ghost board, and I happened to remember this one. Not because I am trying to say, "See? Saten threads used to be allowed on /jp/." I wish I could understand why you hate Saten so much, though.

I am using this name because sometimes people here accuse each other of being me. This will hopefully clear that up (although I guess there is nothing stopping me from dropping the name). And I am posting as Saten!Ruiko on the actual board, so please don't take out your anger on the other Saten fans and assume that they are me.

I couldn't vote last year either but it seems some people could. I wonder if only certain ISPs are blocked.

A thread about which ANIME girl is the most popular is /jp/ related? Thanks I'll keep that in mind next time I want to shit on the board.

It's otaku culture.

It's about the competition. Competition which affects every subhuman otaku nerd everywhere in the world.
Don't compare it with your inane waifu dumps.
