Okay, I'm calling BS on this one! 2 guys with little presence make the top of the list?

I'm thinking maybe Vargas had a lot of joke/stuffing votes. I remember that one Code Geass character poll where Clovis got an overwhelming victory due to cheating.

Yurin isn't surprising in the least. She's cute, nice, and mysterious, an irresistable combo that no fanboy can resist. Her lack of screen time is irrelevant.

anyone else not surprised to see the main hero and heroine at the bottom. Guess I'm not the only one who can't wait for the these two to be out of the picture.

I'm assuming that Yurin's reason for being number 1 is that she's the only Asian character so far.

Because purple hair and eyes are natural Asian traits along with the fact she has the exact same skin tone as the other two characters posted on that poll.

That aside, they really need to get rid of Emily and push Yurin more, I think it was a mistake revealing the son and grandson of flit, because well it is all but assured flit ends up with emily, what a waste.

Regarding the guy characters, this gundam series is a lot less serious and more kid oriented then seed or 00 or wing, so goofy joke characters would be more popular I guess.

I think this is some Zeonic plot to troll Sunrise/Bandai/Level 5. And its working.
