Sket Dance.

Maybe since they've had quite a few dates and they always end up hilarious/funny/good times.

It looks like Japanese manga fans' memory goes back farther than 2 or 3 years.

Where did Ichigo 100% come from? Nice to see it's not all very recent stuff.

As for the female side, Lupin? Weird to see that they picked a thief that goes on strange adventures.

Speaking as a male, either the Azumanga Daioh cast or the Rozen Maidens

k-on girls on a blind date? hmmm, it may be just me but from what I've seen, they'd act too child like on a date. That and I'd be 10+ years their senior Dx take about creepy Razz

The Straw Hats? They do realise there's only 2 women in that group, right?

And I doubt you'd want Luffy/Usopp/Chopper at a dinner with you.

They all want Nami. Just like all the women want Lupin (I doubt any of them voted to pick up Jigen or Goemon. Maybe Fujiko if they swing that way.)

I am a bit weirded out that everyone wants to date assassins, demigods, magicians, and thieves.

Oh well, leaves more Hidamari Apartments girls for me.

Well, I agree with Lupin and his two pals. I kind of wished to see more variety in the polls, but oh well.

I thought the whole idea of a "blind date" was that you didn't know who was coming. How could you possibly choose who was going to come, and still call it a "blind" date?

I basically guessed the top two spots on the female list. I would choose the F4 too - they're rich and good-looking and Tsukasa is probably my favorite male character in anime and manga. And I'm surprised the Sailor Senshi are number two on the male list.

I figured I would see K-On on that list (no surprise that it's number one though.) I kind of expected more moe characters on the male list, but to my actual surprise, there is very little of that there.

Nice to see One Piece on that list, even though there is only two women on that Straw Hat crew.

Manhiem: Yeah, that is throwing me through a loop as well. Can't really call this is a blind date (despite this being made out of fictional characters, obviously) if you know who you will be dating though.

It sounds like both of you are misinterpreting the question. It's like being asked which celebrity you'd love to get set up on a blind date with: it's about who'd make you squee the loudest if you found them waiting for you.
