Anyway, I am LOVING that DR2 merch. I really want to import some of that stuff, but that would practically kill my wallet right now. 
Spoiler for DR2:
Man, looking at those poll results, it truly saddens me to see that Nidai ranks dead last on ALL of them (ESPECIALLY when you consider that certain twist involving him halfway through the game....).  He's honestly one of my top favorites of the DR2 cast. In fact, my top 3 would basically be something like Tanaka > Nidai > Mioda. Well, glad to see that Tanaka's one of the most popular, though (and for good reason.... him AND his hamsters "Four Dark Heavenly God Kings of Destruction" are super-badass. 
And as far as Komaeda goes..... I'm honestly not the least bit surprised that he's so popular. As far as I know, creepy bishie dudes are ALWAYS popular amongst both guys and gals....
BTW, I'm curious: What were the full popularity poll results for the first game's cast? I'm really interested in checking that out, as well.

Spoiler for @Character popularity comment:
Heh, I can't really argue with Komaeda's comment, though I do have to say that the twist is that his fans amped up the creepiness aspect of his lmfao
What I don't understand is how in the world he actually surpassed Tanaka or Hinata in the male voter division, actually, since I was under the impression the guy should be hated by many males since a.) fujoshi bait b.) creep spotlight stealer or something. It's quite the mystery lol
Nidai's low rank is mostly thanks to how much 'shita neta' (or dirty joke, if I can translate that) lobbed through the guy. See, he basically spent chapter 1 doing "KUSO GAAAAA", the kuso being literal. And he hardly have contribution to the class trials or even investigations. By the time his plot twist happen, no one had too much investment on him. That and Tanaka overshadowed him by miles in chapter 4 lol.
I personally don't dislike Nidai, but I can see why he is not popular just like both Owari and Teruteru. Something more of 'there are better characters for me *points at other 10* than this character' and 'too much of dirty jokes tyvm' than 'I dislike the guy'.
And to add vote of confidence, Kodaka (the writer) and the artist whose name escape me atm do like Nidai a lot!
(Trivial details include the staffs making a jab on who is more popular: Tanaka or his
Four Darkry) BAH TOO LONG, 4 HAMSTERS KINGS.
Sugita is an awesome chuuni, period. \o/)
There is also one Famitsu report that goes into small details on the Q&A section (I haven't take a look on it, but it seems to be limited thanks to the report swore on not much spoilers XD;; ) and the talk about the concept of Danganronpa-again, very summarized and non-full spoiler-and a lot of the creators comment.
The one info that practically made me go 'what' is the fact that they actually haven't made SDR2 game up to the end of April 2012 and just Q&C (or master up, to say in the development terms) it one week before the release date!
And it seems that DR1 was actually on the same situation as well, lol. Cross referencing it with some interviews, I suspect the staffs were focusing on getting the scenario really finalized before going into crashing deadlines www
As for the DR1 character poll...

Getting a lot of Monomedals, some presents and two unique skills.
Aim to get Monokuma (Zetsubou level 8, Kibou Level Max before the pet goes into cocoon) and Usami (Zetsubou Level 0, Kibou level Max, same thing with Monokuma's) since those two are the ones that have the unique skills. Particularly Monokuma's--it's the skill that stops the crosshair from having random movements.
