Yay for Yuki, Amethyst suits her. I think the Disappearence Movie might be giving Yuki a bit of boost this year, even if it isn't widely available outside Japan yet, except for the horrible attempt at recording it in the theater.
10000000000% approve! I wanted her to win, and she delivered it without any doubts. and yeah I am excited for the new format, since the current fantasy has become somewhat predictable and boring.
First necklace this year that wasn't decided by a match other than then #1 vs #2 in the running, so it was fair and square. (Note: Disappearance is being shown in the United States (at least in San Francisco) starting this Friday. (I don't know for how long, and I might not be able to see it even though it is only about an hours drive from here). So those that hadn't seen or read about Book 4 yet will get an eye full of Haruhi and Yuki moe.
I voted yes, Yuki was one of the favourites to take out this necklace, so I expected it. I'm a bit bored with the same characters winning necklaces, but it is better than Mio winning again at least.
