Winners: Kyouko Sakura and Houki Shinonono.

Thoughts: Houki is the only girl from Infinite Stratos left! Unfortunately Charlotte lost because she was up against Kuroneko, and now Houki will be going against Kuroneko in the Group finals. Oh no >_<. Majority of the Madoka girls are in the final, I got a pretty good feeling that it’ll be a face-off between two of the characters >_>.
