Sure, laugh it up... but remember, what's popular is emulated. Can you honestly say you look forward to more shows with characters who posess the character depth of a mountain peak and are nothing but a pretty exterior? |

Well I didn't mean permanently dethroned, but they've been dethroned from a continuous, straight presence in the #1 slot. I have no doubt that they'll creep their way back into the #1 slot (despite how little they deserve it >.> ), but for now fans seems to be getting the right idea.

Tired of people calling Kira "Jesus", cos Jesus died in the end, and we all know how that would make viewer ratings go? ;\
Kira is godlike, and the ultimate cordinator, and basicly it would be imposible for him to loose in a fair fight where he had targeted cockpits instead of taking the time to cut of legs\arms\heads\missilepods. His character is one you just gotta hate, but still love. Stellar must be my favorite ms pilot of all time though, and I will never get over how EAF Neo\Mwu manipulated her into fighting after he had promised Shinn to take her far away from the battlefield. |

Why is it for (old?) SEED characters only their roles in DESTINY is mentioned?
For example, for Char you get MSG/The Origin/Zeta But for Kira there's only SEED DESTINY Do people just like these characters in their DESTINY roles so much more than in their SEED roles? Another question: why is Char being given credit for Zeta but there's also Quattro a few ranks down? Just curious. |

I take it this is the first time that Kira officially defeated both all incarnations of Casval?
Kira's 15,413 > Char's 11,211 + Quattro's 811. Let's see how long Sakura last up there once Tsubasa Chronicles is over. IIRC, Kira Yamato lasted like 2 years in top 5 of all polls which regard him either negatively or positively, while Edward lasted like....6 months. |

mecha polls are so biased and overrated at the top. full of Zeta and GSD, sooo overated. They need stuff that will pwnulate anything in power and/or bad-assness, such as the Ex-S and the Zetapluses...
...damn, those arent in animes..... well, V2 clearly dont belong in the #27 spot.... /sigh, shallow GSD/Zeta fapboys/girls... even Strike Noir made it to the list, WTF. |
