Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

Continuing the tradition from last year, a poll was conducted recently by recochoku on the top 10 anime characters otaku want to marry. The poll is divided into two categories (male & female). Here are the results for this year..

First up, the ladies~ Starting with no. 10

10 Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

10. Soryu Asuka Langley (Neon Genesis Evangelion)

9 Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

9. Hirasawa Yui (K-On!)

8 Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

2 Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

2. Katsura Hinagiku (Hayate the Combat Butler)

1 Top 10 Characters Otaku Want to Marry

1. Akiyama Mio (K-On!)

Unexpected? I was surprised 3 characters from K-On! managed to reach top 10 in the poll despite being a fairly new anime. Also didn’t expect Rukia to be so popular among the Japanese. Hinagiku at 2 is no surprise as she was last year’s no. 1.

Now, what about the female otaku? Let’s see who are the guys on their list.

10. Hijikata Toshiro (Gintama)
9. Sebastian Michaelis (Kuroshitsuji)
8. Kurosaki Ichigo (BLEACH)
7. Sawada Tsuna (Katekyou Hitman Reborn!)
6. Date Masamune (Sengoku Basara)
5. Okita Sougo (Gintama)
4. Rokudo Mukuro (Katekyou Hitman Reborn!)
3. Hitsugaya Toushirou (BLEACH)
2. Sakata Gintoki (Gintama)
1. Kyoya Hibari (Katekyou Hitman Reborn!)

Via recochoku

Sorry for the lack of pics, I’ll add them when I can. It seems the list is dominated mostly by Reborn! and Gintama. Very interesting, I expected more entries from shoujo manga.

  1. Mine should be Iriya Kana (from Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu) but seems she’s not popular enough…

    @Optic

    Me too, I knew she was a favorite, but didn’t expect Yuki to be the most popular choice of the SOS girls.

    Why are almost half the male characters from Katekyou Hitman Reborn!?
    I mean, Kyoya Hibari, yes, but definitely not first place D:
    I’d say Gilbert Nightray (Pandora Hearts), Kaoru Hitachiin (Ouran), Xerxes Break (Pandora Hearts), or Hei (Darker than Black).
