ISML 2010: Heavenly Tiara Winner

 

Akiyama Mio from K-ON!/!! wins the Heavenly Tiara. Poster is by KholdStare88.

Holy crap. I wasn't really expecting Mio or maybe the other moeblobs (if they had the chance) to actually win the tiara, since I thought Shana and other contestants could pwn them. But anyways, congratulations Mio! I heard that ISML will have 2011 nominations and the like coming soon, so I'm looking pretty forward to new and old contestants.

Now let's fill in that spot...

According to the latest blog post from game developer ZUN, a new title in the Touhou Project doujin series was formally announced — entitled 「Touhou 12.8 ~ The Great Fairy Wars」.

The story is in relation to ZUN’s (author) and Hirasaka Makoto’s (illustrator) manga, 「Touhou Sangetsusei ~ Strange and Bright Nature Deity」. Apparently the ice fairy Cirno has declared a war against the Three Mischievous Fairies: Sunny Milk, Luna Child, and Star Sapphire.
