That, my friends, is the beauty of the gameplay in this current round. How you play your "cards" (in choosing the immunity and normal vote) can and may influence the outcome of the game, with Magu and Gasu being the first example of this.

As stated in the rule, the hierarchy in selecting winner goes by 1) fruit with highest immunity votes, 2) 3 fruits with highest normal vote. And in respective hierarchy, should a tie occur, the other kind of vote will attempt to act as tiebreaker (for 1 will be the normal votes, for 2 will be the immunity votes).

A rule is a rule. Gasu happen to snatch a surprise win over Magu. If Magu had one more vote tying up with Gasu at 16 apiece, then Magu will be the clear winner with advantage in immunity votes.
