Since Gintama has such a large amount of good females I decided to make this I'm sure I missed few ones but those are most of the important ones. Best for me is either Tsukuyo or Kagura I change my mind on that quite alot.

Kagura is the only one I'd say is consistently good out of the girls

Pretty much all the other top characters of Gintama are male

Tsukuyo though? I absolutely love her drunk side its always funny and her relationship with Gintoki is great on a Romantic and Platonic sense.

Kagura it's the only permanent female in my top 10 characters, so she it's my choice.

Tsukuyo it's cool too.

Pretty sure as time passes Kagura will win the poll by a fair amount of votes. Tsukuyo will probably come second. That's how it has always been..

Shame Yagyuu Kyuubei isn't getting much love tho, I loved her personality during the Yagyuu arc, though I might be biased since the Yagyuu arc is my personal favorite.

I think if Kyuubei being on this list is going to get them more love and discussion, perhaps it's not a bad thing for them to be on the poll, but I think we should also be aware of the fact that Kyuubei is genderfluid or a trans character, and not necessarily a "girl". :P

What kind of poll is this? Kagura is like one of the best 10 girls in anime history. The question should have been regarding the second. I would have picked Tsukki if that were the case. A close second would be Tama.

Anyways, Gintoki wouldn't even approve of this poll. Why? Because his major crush isn't to be found anywhere in this poll.

I'm really sad Kyuubei isn't getting much votes. I think it may be partly due to her lack of appearances in this recent season.

Also Mutsu is another one that doesn't get enough screentime thanks to Bakamoto being a pretty irrelevant character (except for the past stuff)...but he's still awesome

Otae may not be popular in MAL but she is very popular in Japan.

Last year WSJ held a poll on which character in Gintama the fans want to see with Sakata Gintoki in the WSJ special cover celebrating 10 years of run:

Top 5 Female characters:
3,012 votes // 1. Kagura
2,774 votes // 2. Shimura Tae (Otae)
1,000 votes // 3. Tsukuyo (Tsukki)
*,892 votes // 4. Sarutobi Ayame (Sa-chan-san)
*,*** votes // 5. Unpublished
*

*most likely Yagyuu Kyuubei (Kyuu-chan) based on previous similar polls.

It's amazing how she got so many votes because she was never that popular in the previous results published back in 2005, 2009 and 2011.

I think it is Tama who is the most unloved female character.

---- Unrelated to this poll-----

Top 5 Male characters:
4,446 votes // 1. Hijikata Toushiro
3,041 votes // 2. Okita Sougo
3,034 votes // 3. Takasugi Shinsuke
2,501 votes // 4. Katsura Kotarou
1,179 votes // 5. Kamui

Actually that would be almost 3 times (2.77 times). The worrying thing is though she was just 239 votes shy of overtaking my Kagura in the latest poll. No other female character managed to get that many votes besides Kagura in any Gintama poll in the past. Otae's rise since the introduction of majority of the current list of characters (i.e. since 2009) has been steep. She was ranked 17th in 2009, made it in the top 10 for the first time in 2011 (ranked 10th) and now she is ranked 6th overall*

*including male characters.

As an anime only viewer I dunno how she became this popular. The poll was conducted by WSJ so obviously all of the votes were cast by manga readers and not anime viewers. I mean I really like Otae as a character (it's hard to not like Gintama girls) and there has always been subtle hints that she has romantic inclination towards Gintoki (unlike Tsukki, which has been made more obvious) but from what I have seen as an anime only viewer, she doesn't somehow get into my top 3. Maybe it would change if I read the manga (latest chapters)? I don't know.

I doubt it matters what medium you experience Gintama in, whether it's the anime or the manga, because my appreciation of her is simply through the eyes of an anime-only fan. And from what I've seen & read, the fandom in Japan is heavily consisted of females, so it kinda makes sense why she's such a female favorite.

But in saying that, I still can't compare her to the goatness of Kagura. Which bring me to: holy shit! I thought Kagura would dominate this poll but Tsukki's 3 votes away. Wow.

Yeah I'm caught up to the manga and she didn't change much if at all. and while I really like Otae I definitely would not put her in my top 3 but whatever its not like its the first time I disagreed with Japan's choices.

And I'm very happy that Tsukuyo is giving Kagura this much of fight! they are both my favorites so either way I'm happy.

We have to remember that Tsukki was introduced much, much later in the series. Actually she is the last of the heavily recurring female characters. So, seeing her this popular in MAL also means those who didn't get to see her before they stalled/dropped this anime would probably enjoyed it a bit more and perhaps even continued. But then again, watching 130ish episodes to get to see her wouldn't probably cut it for those who dropped it earlier.

This season featured Otae the most (unlike previous Gintama seasons), yet Tsukki is still as popular as ever to MAL fans. I am not sure but somehow it seems Sorachi-sensei almost always leave Otae untouched (no body swap, no gender swap etc.). He claims himself as a gorilla. And refers to Otae as gorilla as well. Hmm... I don't want to read more into it.

Kagura remains the best girl though. Sometimes I think what happened to Edo? Where did all the alien on the streets go? Since I always end up forgetting that our heroine is an alien herself. :D

Both Tsukuyo and Kyuubei. But I knew that Tsukuyo would be a popular choice so I went for Kyuubei. The reason I love her is because I can relate pretty well to her when it comes to character and having issues with behaving as your gender stereotype. Haven't seen a lot of ''manly'' female characters in anime so far. Also chose her for the silly reason that I really love samurais.
