However, even with all the support, Marcille couldn't overcome the phenomenon Anna Yanami.

- Momo Ayase falls in the semifinals: The protagonist of “Dandadan” , one of the favorites, was eliminated by Marcille with 616 votes against 563. This may indicate that “Dungeon Meshi” is gaining more prominence than “Dandadan” at the moment.
- Alisa “Alya” Kujou didn’t make it as far as expected: Despite her popularity, she lost badly to Anna in the quarterfinals, with 614 votes to 226.
