Sargeant Keroro is more popular than I thought it was! And Rei... yeesh... the fanboys strike again. I'll never get the male fascination with her. Guess it proves that men don't look for personality. Razz But yeah... go Doraemon and Lupin the III! Couldn't be bored with either.

What? No Shikamaru? Then again, it would be impossible to play board games with him. He'd always win.

If Goku was your friend, your odds of dying would shoot through the roof.

I wouldn't mind being friends with Goku but his nativity would get kind of annoying after awhile and he doesn't understand the genius of King Kaio's puns. Razz And I have two words for why you shouldn't be friends with Rei: giant Rei. Where's the love for Tohru Honda? She's just such a sweet girl that always tries to understand others instead of judging them that I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't want to be friends with her unless they don't like her speeches or something.

I don't agree with any of the people on the list but that's my preference.

But what I DID notice is that it took them 10 months to compile the data from 200 people. Is it just me or is that an awfully long time to get data like that compiled. I'm mean, all they are asking is who would you like to be friends with, not researching the affects a new medication...

With all that energy I'd have him training......in other words cleaning my gutters, mowing the lawn, walking the dog really fast. It's all "training" heh.

Aoi from Kenshin would be nice too. I could sit and be silent and not worry about it offending him.

I had the same reaction as some with Rei. Interesting person, probably not the best friend.

Then I thought of the massive male Rei fanbase. Makes sense then Wink

I guess people who voted Ayanami Rei were not thinking about ordinary friendship but more along the lines of "friend with benefits"... :3

All of the answers make sense except for Rei Ayanami. I can't imagine a worse person to be friends with. She'd be such a downer all the time, would never have fun when we went out, and would make a terrible conversationalist. That must have been a guy's pick, since I can't imagine any female wanting to go out on the town and be girls with Rei.

Maybe you didn't know, but there's a huge, huge following for Ayanami Rei, mostly among the male fanbase. In other words, a lot of guys think she's really hot. My guess is that was the reasoning behind that choice.

If I had a dime for every time I've read, "She is cute, that is why she is called Rei-chan."


lol, wont they all be dissapointed when she tells them: "I think youve gotten the wrong idea, The poll said you just wanted to be friends..."


Vash the Stampede might be fun to hang out with. Especially if youre drinking.

Yang Wenli or Reinhard Von Lohengramme.

Either way the wind blows, I'm covered on that one.

Also: Bean Bandit.
