Poll: "Who do you want to be your boss?"
Fans: "Let's fill the list with folks from a dystopic future."

Some interesting choices on the list. No idea what appeal Frieza has as a boss.

Closed poll, so not very interesting.

But Roy Mustang actually was a pretty good boss.

But I'd rather have Belldandy, as long as I didn't have to work with her sisters.

They forgot to mention Chief Daisuke Aramaki (Ghost in the Shell both Anime and the Movie)
and the female lead Motoko Kusanagi

‘3rd place - Sakata Gintoki’
Really?? Have these people not been paying attention to the show? Gin is the LAST person you would want to be in charge of your wages lmao.

I want Kagome's mom as a boss. She's infinitely understanding and patient, never loses her temper, and would always have your back against the higher-ups. She'd probably make you lunches, and dole out good advice too. Plus she seems to be pretty smart and competent, with management skills from being a single mother caring for a very extended household.

Lelouch: "well that seems incredibly ill-advised if you value your well-being--"

Frieza: "what"

Imagine their actual boss, if they see Frieza as an improvement Laughing

Akane is one of the best leads of the 2010s, and yes, it is her character that made the show much more than anyone else's.

S2 is not good, but it's not Akane's fault. She's one of the bright spots in it, but even she can't save the weird plot and lame new side characters.

Damn, Ginoza for sure, he almost made 1. I mean Akane is great, but Ginoza is more entertaining to look at.

No character from Mobile Suit Gundam shame

Char Aznable, Bright Noa and Paptimus Scirocco would be good pick as boss. Also for Dragon Ball I think Piccolo could be a good boss and I understand somehow Frieza as a choice.

Funny to see this poll tho because I am watching for the first time Psycho-Pass Laughing coincidence I think not.

Noa is the only one I would approve. Char loves backstabbing his own people in Origin and and the late 70s and I didn't even mention what he does in Counterattack. Meanwhile, Scirocco is so creepy that even ghosts and Kamille found that he had to be killed for good. I remember he kept manipulating those Newtype women a lot.
