So far, more girls showed up. But Sayaka is always my favourite girl. I voted her again!

Agree that there probably needs another poll. From the second opening, it looks like there wouldn't be more girls.

My favourite is still Aiba Asagi by far though.

I don't really understand how Yukina is holding strong at second place. I don't really see special traits in her aside from her jealousy.

I feel the same , she's a little annoying too.
And as for my fav, it's still natsuki-chan followed by Asagi ...

I agree that her jealousy is fedding me up, but I do not think Yukina's so annoying, I do like her very much.
Yet, La Folia's got my vote.

Power of main girl.

I don't know if its me but it has been pretty long since I shipped the main couple of the series. Nowadays the underdogs always seem to be the 'best girl'.

Back at the beginning my vote went to Asagi. After Sayaka appeared she got my vote. But now La Folia gets it. And unless a better girl than La Folia appears (which I doubt) she will always get my vote.

Yuuma is my type but La Folia is just too awesome to ignore. Sayaka is nice as well. I wont go so far as to say I despise Yukina, but I don't like how her character was written. If Asagi gets more screen time she might also go up in my rankings.

My favorite one is La Folia, Sayaka is close and I guess Asagi is also good.

I don't get why people like Yukina, she's almost as boring as SAO's Asuna imo.

Yunna and Asagi typical childhood friend, Yunna some kind of witch highjack his body, dude that's awesome and she just showed up. Asagi, she is some kind of computer genius, has some kind of dark past, but hasn't been revealed yet, she and Yunna kissed the dude, they are true to their feelings.........

Sayaka, typical tsundere, she started bad given the impression of being lesbian, but got better with time, she seems more powerful than Yukina, she is tsundere, so you can't really ask her to go upfront to purse the dude, but she is doing it better than Yukina, she got him as a favorite number on her cellphone, calls him for everything; she is doing a better job making it clear she is after him.....

La folia, she is a bit mischievous and she is also quite upfront. she made it clear that she after the dude and has no problem being straightforward of what she wants. She has awesome powers. Not relevant, but she is hot.

Natsuki, loli teacher, powerful witch...........................................


Yukina, only thing she has is her sword, and her jealousy. Not true to her feelings, does she like the dude or what, she insist she is only supervising him, so why being all bitchy when he gets close to another girl. Come on, not even the little sister, which is quite common on these kind of animes has that trait. She even fails as a loli. Is she supposed to be yandere? she is always hitting him for no good reason, even as a yandere she fails.

Well it sure as hell isn't Yuuma with all of her shenanigans in this latest arc. My vote goes to Yukina. She's had my vote since episode 1, and none of the other girls introduced since then even come close. Doubt any of these other girls are ever going to change my decision.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

La Folia is the only one of this group who doesn't get jealous though, aside from Natsuki for obvious reasons.

Yeah if we're talking back story sure, but i'm thinking personality-wise. Every one of these girls pretty much just has a different archetype (mature loli, tsundere, classy beauty, introverts, etc). So we have variety, but none of them really blow me away because I've already seen these characters hundreds of times before.

I guess you're right. I was getting ahead of myself there. Well, I hope for a 2nd season then.

If I drive for you, you get your money. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun.

To me Yukina is the typical imouto character, only that the writer decided to make her the MC's side kick instead of his sister to avoid having to deal with incest.

If the author himself wrote it there's still a slim(almost none actually) possibility I'd say. I don't particularly like Yukina either. The way her character type is makes liking her hard to do.

My point is that she has the same amount of personality as the rest. So it shouldn't be a surprise that she has a large number of votes, considering she has the most screen time.

Personality wise I still think she is at lost in comparison with quite a few characters, but bold part is everything. IMO her amount of screen time is what makes up for her lack of appealing. Asagi, Sayaka, La folia, Nastuki all together has less screen time than her, so it is not really a fair competition.
