No comment on female list. Seems about right.

As for male list...

Kotomine-Obligatory sexy troll votes (Should have merged)
Gil-Obligatory fabulous mongrel votes
GARcher-Obligatory GAR votes
Shirou-Obligatory main character votes
Kiritsugu-Obligatory boku votes
Waver-Obligatory fujoshi votes
Kariya-Obligatory pity votes
Iskander-Obligatory bro votes
Lancer-Obligatory GAR BRO votes

All fate characters up there...
I'm calling bullshit on Nanaya not even making top 10.

THIS! He's Way Hundred Or Thousand Times Cooler Than Shirou. D<

It was a well-deserved out: He's a one trick pony. You can find him likeable if you want (I think he's cool, but well done and fleshed out? Even Uryuu Ryuunosuke has more significant depth). Shirou, on the other hand, is actually a developed character.

Strip Nanaya from his power and his role in an harem eroge. He has absolutely nothing to stand out as a character. Maybe the remake will give Shiki (Tohno and Nanaya) a makeover to fix their 'only exists as self-insert' proxy issues. They did try to do this before, but didn't work imo. Nasu is very capable of this. I trust him. They should stop retouching the girls designs when they were fine in the first place. It's the male characters in Tsukihime who need a boost, including Shiki.



Crunchyroll isn't very reliable because they posted secondhand information without bothering to check who had the source. I voted for Gilgamesh (in the third place) and he was ONLY in the FSN section. Trust me I looked after noticing Kirei was in two places (which was dumb, I had to choose). There weren't many split characters (Sakura wasn't Dark Sakura or Sakura, for instance).

I voted Lancer (Cu Chulainn) Kirei and Ilya

I voted three times for nine different characters. First time was Kirei (FSN), Rider (Alex) and Gilgamesh (yeaaah immediately went to FZ section looked up as Kinpika, Archer and Gilgamesh and wasn't there. sob). Second was Avenger, Bazett and Cuchulainn. I forgot who the hell I voted in the third time.

I voted for Kirei(SN), Ciel and Nero-Saber.
Kirei is such a unique snowflake that he appears in Top 10 twice, lol. Maybe they made a separated choices on purpose so that Kirei won't outrun Emiyas.

I think, NAC deserves to be in Top 10, although I'm not sure what gender he is (if he has any). And Lancer could be higher.
It's kind of sad to see only Fate guys in top. They should make another poll when FZ boom will fade out.

Nanaya is more remarkable than Tohno, but not really more interesting than any other Tsukihime guy like Arihiko or SHIKI. And Shirou is more interesting as a character, yes.

Fate franchise has more male presence overall. I doubt it would fade out so easily because they are reinforcing more extras to milk it (cd dramas, social games, advertising on streets - including ridiculous "buy our houses, we'll give you fate/zero goodies for free!" ones, the manga is still outgoing, etc).



"This is how it ends... a simple mathematical difference to count our votes."

"What a boring conclusion"

Apparently Nasu said he wants Fate to be their Gundam which is a huge slap in the face to the Tsukihime fans.

Yeah, I know. But why do they care? Tsukihime premise doesn't allow it to be Gundam-esque (or Macross-esque or whatever elements it takes for a franchise to be recognizable). He also allows other people to write for him (which is also Gundamesque).

Objectively, it's also more popular. Do the Kara No Kyoukai fans care? You don't see me caring.

Seems legit and Archer being up there at the very top is definitely the real deal.

I voted for 1. Kirei (F/SN) 2. Gilgamesh 3. Ryougi Shiki.

I wonder how many accumulated points Kirei got... Kind of stupid to divide him into F/SN and F/Z versions when Gil only gets a F/SN version, imo. Quite pleased with the results anyway, except for Archer being number one. I've never been a fan.

Mostly because he has that "GARcher" fame. He doesn't deserve number one though, he was too stupid in a way (fitting considering his identity lol). He knew his plan wouldn't work yet he still did it (and risked Rin's life in the process).

It pains me to see Sion is not even in there, but Saber is & she is # 1. Sion is also the best female in Type-Moon imo.

Never understood why Saber is so great.

Touko is not in there either(Of course), so I'm guessing her sister is much cooler.

Yeah...I don't get why people like Saber either other than the rabid advertising and character design recycling.
Sion is love. Even better when I ship her with Roast Beef.

;_;

Actually, if you count a certain two Emiyas together they definitely outrun Kirei with the amount of points.

Then again almost nobody thinks this way becaus it would be insulting for both characters. XD

Aside from that comment pretty much ditto to what was already said.

And I wonder when we will get a full list with the amount of votes. That will be really interesting to see.

At least I know Avenger had one vote! (mine sob).

It's sad though, Avenger was pretty well written. He deserves more love than, say Nanaya.

Red Saber should be number one.

Also i agree, Shiki is more likeable but he is no where near the character Shirou is. I like Tsukihime more than Fate/Stay overall but this is true.

Also they could easily milk Tsukihime. With more sequels. Kagetsu Tohya's main plot was pretty much just leading on to other stuff.

The results clearly shows us that most type-moons fans are Fate fans. Ryougi did pretty good to make it 2nd because I'm pretty sure KNK is no where near as popular as the Fate series.

The top 3 for females makes sense. Ryougi and Saber have always been battling for first for a while now and Rin has always been right behind them.

I just don't get how Archer came first though. I thought people would forget about him by now. I think top 3 for males should've been Iskandar, Gilgamesh, and Kiritsugu.
