Akihabara Fans Vote For Favorite Red-Haired Heroine
posted on by Chris Nishijima
Recent street polls in Akihabara as of late have decided to question 100 self-proclaimed otaku on their favorite characters based off of hair color. In order that they might keep a good thing going, fans have once again been asked to rank their favorite anime girls. This time, the category is red-haired girls. Now, we're not talking about the anime version of the Weasley family here. We're talking about those characters that are often seen as "vigorous," "energetic," "popular," and "beautiful." Of course, the stereotype also goes that these girls, more often than not, tend to be considered tsundere as well. That being said, here are the top 7 red-haired girls of anime according to those 100 fans:
| Rank | Character | Title | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kyouko Sakura | Puella Magi Madoka Magica |  |
|
| 2 | Akari Akaza | Yuru Yuri |  |
|
| 3 | Shana | Shakugan no Shana |  |
|
| 4 | Tamaki Kousaka | ToHeart Series |  |
|
| 5 | Yoko | Gurren Lagann |  |
|
| 6 | Maki Nishikino | Love Live! |  |
|
| 7 | Kūko | Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! |  |
