Saimoe 2007 was the 6th edition of the annual Anime Saimoe Tournament organized by users from the Japanese textboard 2channel. The tournament ran from 2007 July 01 to November 3, and was conducted within the tournament's own website. The defending champion was Suiseiseki from Rozen Maiden, who managed to reach round 4 but was eliminated by Tsukasa Hiiragi from Lucky Star.

Rounds 1-4

Players per round: 288 > 96 > 32 > 16 > 8 > 4 > 2

Tournament format is single-elimination. All contestants are initially split into 8 groups of 36 girls, which are composed of multiple matches. Vote only one girl per each match, regardless of number.
If a match is tied for 1st place, all tied contestants will advance into the next round. If the final is tied, then both girls will be crowned champion.

• Round 1: Three girls per match. Some matches have 4 girls instead to accommodate excess contestants.
• Round 2: Three girls per match.
• Rounds 3 and beyond will be 1v1 match. The winner of round 4 (group finals / top 16) will advance to the elite eight bracket, where they will be re-seeded.
