IXA Ready - Fist On! 
A really surprising outcome for this year’s election.
A few unexpected rankings (be it raising or dropping).
The same bunch of Media Senbatsu as with the past couple of years, with a few new ones.
Sad that Myao has dropped so many ranks, even though the votes she got increased from last year. Even Miichan has dropped by one…
Speaking of vote counts, you can really see the tremendous vote difference between the 2nd and 3rd place. About 48591 votes difference… And the 2nd lost to the 1st by 17049 votes…
Comparing from last year, the votes that most of the girls are getting have gotten a lot more (maybe it is because they are accepting votes from everywhere). In this view, hope the girls can see that the ranking does not really matter as their fan base have gotten bigger with each passing day…
Take that Acchan’s haters!!
With both Yuko’s fans and her haters united, she still managed to get back highly deserved 1st position. I’M SO HAPPY FOR YA ACCHAN!!!!
Glad you’re happy about the result!
