Nah, but he's in it this year.
He's a shoo-in. Unless I'm getting the rules mixed up with Saimoe, the only characters who can compete are those who star in anime from the previous year, and without Guts and Archer around, Kamina's virtually guaranteed the top spot. I mean, who else has been nominated? Subaru Nakajima? Hiraga Saito?
Oh? Now you start to watch it, after voting in my poll, well since you started watching it I must pose the question, TTGL or FAKKU?
If the rest of the series is as good as the first four episodes, it's TTGL, all the way.
I was really surprised to see Gainax's name show up in the opening credits, but now that I think about it, Simon's like Shinji Ikari with a bit more spine and a lot less angst. Good thing Yoko's not like Asuka.
