Miss Sexy Anime 2026: Round 2 Voting Starts With Bishoujo Bracket Until July
A summer “sexy anime” popularity contest is moving into its next phase, bringing the full bulk of its 2026 field into active voting. The tournament’s second round starts now with a large group of Bishoujo characters—each tied to anime that debuted in the reference year—and will run on a structured bracket until the end of July.
What this contest is and who anchors it
The event is designed to crown the audience’s favorite across categories such as sexy appeal, beauty, charm, and overall attractiveness (with “popularity” explicitly not treated as the same metric). The roster focuses on Bishoujo Anime Girls who made their anime debut during the referenced year, which the event materials identify as 2025.
Voting is guided by a returning figure: Yuki Suou, the champion and winner from the 2025 edition, from Roshidere / Alya Sometimes Hides her feelings in Russian. The contest also has a parallel showpiece event called MEGAMICLICK, positioned as an additional round that spotlights characters who have appeared previously, with special guests included.
Turno II format: how the bracket is built
Round two brings together players from the first round and additional entries, expanding the competitive field substantially.
- The second round includes 40 winners from various first-round blocks, plus 4 “re-entry” picks.
- Those 44 entrants join 156 other contestants already set to enter the round, for a total of 200 participants.
- Contestants are split into 8 groups (gironi) of 25 each.
- Advancement rules send forward the top 6 from each group, plus 52 additional contestants based on best scores overall.
Voting rules, deadline, and the current group list
The contest materials stress that the results are influenced by a “bonus waifu” mechanic: votes from the male audience segment carry extra weight.
- The current voting period for this round runs until 00:00 on 29/07.
- A dedicated contest blog exists for the event.
- The “bonus waifu” rule applies, weighting male plateaus’ votes more heavily.
