In other news, melange, one of the organizers of Touhou Seimoe 2007, has informed me that the Touhou characters that appeared in the recent Maikaze animation are eligible to be nominated for International Saimoe League 2009.

Here’s part of what he said, because I’m sure his explanation is probably better than the vague things I’d probably write:

Up to eight characters can be nominated, each with a different weightage of points. However, the organizers filter characters according to amount of screentime. So Reimu, Marisa, and Aya would better make the cut then Meiling.

There’s not much time left for nomination though; nominations end on the 0500 GMT on the 8th of Jan. Getting the word out has been slow because we only just got confirmation from the organizers that Touhou Kakyou Musou would be eligible.

So yeah, I guess that means… go nominate some of those characters!

The characters that appeared in the Maikaze animation are Hakurei Reimu, Shameimaru Aya, Kirisame Marisa, Izayoi Sakuya, Remilia Scarlet, Ibuki Suika, Patchouli Knowledge, and Hong Meiling, if anyone needs names. I don’t know whether they want surnames first or what, but I guess this is fine.
