Favorite girl?

[Roots]

It had to be done. So who's your favorite girl in Mai-HiME? Actually this question is harder than usual, because the characters act and feel noticably different in the manga and the anime. Hmmm, I guess we can vote for favorite overall in the poll, favorite anime girl, and favorite manga girl though.


Favorite anime girl: Mai
I just love Mai in the anime. She's got spunk, she's got a great personality, and she's just a really likeable character.

Spoiler:

And she has big boobs!!!

Favorite manga girl: Natsuki
Natsuki takes the cake for the best manga girl. I can't get enough of her. I love how she's normally aggressive and somewhat crude, but then turns around and shows that she's really a sweet, gentle girl (especially around Tate, that lucky bastard). Everytime I turn a page in the manga I hope to see more Natsuki action.


Overall winner: Natsuki
Natsuki's charm in the manga won me. I think that Mai acts a little overly sweet and caring in the manga for my tastes, so that helps me come to my decision.


Honorable mention: Akane
You know, there's just something about Akane that I really like. She's more like your average girl and she's a little clumsy, but she's really sweet, and cute, and caring. I love how she acts and talks around Kazu in the manga, especially in a particular chapter in volume 2. Also one should note that Akane and Kazu are not initially boyfriend and girlfriend in the manga as they are in the anime, which makes the relationship all the more fun to enjoy.

Where is Nao-chan?

[Ialdaboth]

Fujino, because she has interesting hobbies.

I think your memory is going, she's right there between 'Akira' and 'Other I didn't list'. And even if she wasn't, you did have the catch all 'Other I didn't list'

[Esper 28]

My vote goes for Natsuki. There's just something about her that I can't get enough of.

As for honorable mention, I could float that over to (bare with me, I'm horrible with names) the nurse and the nun. Ugh, horrible with names...

[TrueKnight]

Anime : Natsuki, dunno why but her bossy attitude kinda grew on me, too bad her HiME currently sucks because of the sheer power of that robot girl.

Manga : Natsuki, kinda different from the anime, but basically the same. The one thing that pwned more about her personality in the manga is the more femine personality that she shows only around Tate (yeah, Tate the playah).

Honorable Mention : The Nun and that Defender of Justice. I'm not good remembering their names.

Defender of Justice = Midori.

Nun = Sister (I haven't heard anyone call her by her real name that I can remember...)

I like female ninjas as well, but I like them more like Kasumi from Dead or Alive.


She's in italics because you voted for her. 馬鹿

Sister Yukariko Sanada. Before when I posted I couldn't think of her name so I made a point of going and looking it up.

[Yebyosh]

Anime - Midori.
A comedy is more memorable with a unique character. Who was more memorable for me than a campy sentai otaku . Perfectly suited for the funny moments.

Manga - Midori.
Though only appearing in 3 chapters so far, she remains much the same as the anime version with some different aspects.

Spoiler for Manga Midori:

She desperately tries her best, constantly putting on a cheerful outlook, no matter what. Simply because she is the teacher and the most senior, carrying the most responsibility. One wonders if her ditzy appearance is totally true or the result for the pressures to live up to her responsibility.

Overall - No fight... "愕天大王！"

Tidbit:

Spoiler:

Never thought of it in my decision but Midori's bustline is bigger than Mai's

Honourable Mention - Mai ( anime version ) and Akane ( manga version ). Mai's character design is simply appealing to me... Akane is sweet in the manga. Her determination simply makes you root for her.

[dreamless]

anime - Nao-chan, because she's evil

manga - Nao-chan, because she's EVIL

EVIL OWNS

And Jullya is surely one WICKED looking Child

[ChainLegacy]

I like Mikoto because... Er... She's the most... Primative. Ok I just like swords. I also like the nun

[Dagger]

Akira is my absolute favorite, followed shortly by the dynamic duo of Chie & Aoi (neither of whom are listed). I also love the main three girls--but then, who doesn't?

[KuraLighterzZ]

Nao !!!!

nao ... please drag me into a dark corner and rob me please !!!!!!!!

[Bronwen Stx]

Mai - [Anime]
She's truly a person who you could easily see being friends with. Her character design is pretty and yesh, even me = female, she has very big boobs that sometimes is appealing and sometimes isn't. Haha. Plus she's got a badass child - Kagutsuchi, The Fire God and she's responsible. The best thing about this is that she feels like a person you would meet too. She has doubts about fighting and killing those she thought once were good people but if it calls, she will protect those she cares for the most. Overall, a very believable and complex character. They appeal to me

Natsuki - [Manga]
She for no other reasons, amuses me to the end of no return. So I like her. Period.

Honorable Mention
I have a list:
Midori - 'nuff said.
Akane - a tragic character who has enough bonus points to get in the HM.
Mikoto - just because of the manga. 'These boobs are mine' cracks me up.

[FlyByNite]

You know what? Honestly there's not one of the girls that I don't like. I think each has their merits and the closest one I'd come close to saying is useless is Akane, but she's just too nice and I feel bad for what happened to her in the anime.

That said Natsuki is getting my vote just for her hitchhiking pose

[Kamui4356]

I voted for Mikoto. I'm not exactly sure why, but she's my favorite in this series. Maybe it's because she looks cute most of the time, but still manages to look cool when swinging that giant sword of hers around. Then again I ike most of the characters, so my choice will probably be different after the next episode.

No, I think it's because you are a lolicon
