Of those top ten females, I think I'd have to go for Azusa myself, though Yuki is also an appealing (if a little odd) option.


I don't get why anyone would want to "marry" Yuki. I mean she's cute and all, but what would you talk about? She never was the conversationalist. Unless, that's the main appeal... Very Happy

While I realize this poll and its results are meant to be taken as light and harmless fun, the one reason I shudder is because I wonder if, among the participants, there was anybody of a similar mindset to that otaku in Japan who tried to petition for an marriage license to wed Mikuru Asahina of TMoHS last year.

I don't think that petition was particularly serious, either...

But yeah, Ichigo is pretty much the only one on the list who would actually make a good husband. (As far as wives go, I'd rather have Orihime, even if it means I'd have to cook.) Then again, people obviously answered on the basis of "I THINK S/HE'S HOT" and not "I think s/he'd really make a great wife/husband."

what? Am i alone on this. I have never thought about this ever in my life. I watch anime to get away from stupid stuff like this. I watch it to see a good complicated story and characters, unlike a lot of media here. This article just made me feel stupid. Some people seriously need to get outside a bit.


Your not alone on this one. In all the eight years I've been watching anime, I've never thought about this. Now if this was a poll that asked what voice actor from that series would you want to marry, this would be normal.

Clearly, anyone who thinks a fictional character is real and they want to marry them needs to be psycologically evaulated. Or at the very least get a job or something more productive.

Nah, she'd drop dead on the spot of her own accord after hearing the news.

So, what, is Sasuke banned from this poll? That's the only reason I can think of as to why he isn't #1 on the list.

Truth^2.

Poor Mugi and Ritsu... but I would have voted for Mio too.

And what's up with the same guys every year? Do females think they are going to get called out and ridiculed for liking another guy from another show? ("YOUR love is NOT as strong as MY love since you strayed to another guy!")

Hinagiku ♥♥♥

Also, I am amused to see Date Masamune on that list. Some girls have good taste. Much better than any guy who'd want to marry a Yuki or an Asuka. (Edit: I suppose I can't rule out that it could have been guys voting for the groom section, too. Date is pertty gar, you gotta admit.)

Edit again:

I don't think it's something most people really think much about because, well, they're not real! It's not the kind of thing I ever think about until I see news/polls/discussions like this, at least. But as mentioned earlier in this thread sometimes it's kinda fun to think about such "what-ifs."

I wonder what would happen if this was done in America?

Everyone would be all "That's pathetic, I would never vote." Then they would secretly vote even though they are embarrassed. People take things to seriously.

I myself would have voted for Taiga.


I mean, who do you think would win in an American poll?

I'll put my money an anyone from Death Note... 'specially L, Mello,Matt and Near.

And then there is the ever fangirled over Sauske, but that's Naruto...

That list is crazy!
Mugi-chan is way more waifu material than Mio.


And the fact that Mugi comes from a family that's got more wealth than I could ever imagine, even in my wildest dreams and hopes of personal monetary avarice? In this still turbulent global economy, that wedding is simply nothing but financially sound win.

(Oh yeah, helps that she's cute and has a relatively normal personality compared to the other members of the Sakura Keionbu...
I said _Relatively._)

Actually, Hibari's a jerk, I can't understand that one.


Hibari is not a jerk. He has his own principles and isn't interested in what the others are doing. He just like to fight good opponents that he can bite to death. Anime smile

Well, if I had to pick somebody off that list it would definitely be Sheryl.
