and why do you think that it is? i was just curious :> im referring to the one with the least 'favourites' on MAL

mine is uzaki hana (264 favourites) who's a pretty recent addition, probably because the anime she's from isn't that popular (yet?) and i know some people find her annoying (i can see why). i still find her really cute and lovable, though. hatz from tower of god is second (298, do i have a thing for seasonal anime this year...?)

is your least popular favourite character the controversial one? the underrated one? or just the one from an anime that no one has heard of?

im sorry if this has been done before!! ;-;

alternatively, you can also list who's most popular! mine is kurapika with 11k favourites

edit: uzaki and hatz had an increase in favourites lmfao probably because everyone is catching up to the seasonals, uzaki is at 764 now and hatz is at 368 :>

Oh shit, I feel stupid for saying Zero Two

I change my answer to Ikki Kurogane. Turns out that this anime was never planning to get a season 2, that's the main reason why he isn't popular among people. I find him amazing.

Munsu from Shin Angyo Onshi. There is an anime movie adaptation in which I haven't seen but generally, not a lot of people have read the manga (I think). Quite enjoy a refreshing anti-hero protagonist these days

Mine is Miuna from nagi no asukara and I'm guessing she's not that popular because nagi no asukara is a pretty forgotten anime because she still has the most faviortes from that show

Jin Mori from The God of High School with 700 something favourites, definitely gonna be much higher by the time the anime ends.

Also Kasumi Chigusa from Qualidea Code, he's got around 500 favs.

They're not from an anime, which might be a contributing factor as to why they aren't popular but it's Akame and Mashiro from Back Alley Life, both with only 1 favorite.

In other words, I'm the only one on MAL who has them as my favorite characters.

Shi Seiran - 205
Conrad Weller - 297 : Sad to know that only 297 out of 34,968 people on this site understand the greatness of my best boy, the rest are just menkui

Also Pudding-chan Miyako-nano~ from Princess Connect Re Dive, as i'm the one who add that character to MAL last season

Aka no saber(Mordred) with ~1500 favorites. I dont really know why she does not have more favourites, imo she was the best character from Fate/Apocrypha(I know that does not mean much since most characters were very under developed)

As of now, among my favorite characters, the only ones who have less than 1000k favorites are:

Bondrewd with 872 favs
Mayuri with 835 favs
Doppio with 717 favs
Kaoru with 549 favs

Bondrewd and Mayuri are depraved mad scientists that fuck up the main characters in the story, so I can see why people may hate them (I think more than 800 favs is a lot though). The number of people faving them may increase in the future, however, when the third MiA movie will be subbed and when the second season of Bleach comes.

Kaoru belongs to a pretty much forgotten anime from the beginning of the 2010s, so I can understand why she doesn't has more favs, but honestly, I think more than 500 people is still a lot. Doppio is just weird lol.

My least popular is funabori at a whopping 85. I can understand why she isn’t that popular because she from d-frag and d-frag is a in between anime(not big but not small either). But there so much to like her as shown in the anime when she was first introduced. And kinda like funabori then and now.

Okumura Koushuu with 68 favourites.

He's one of the new characters in the latest season of Daiya no Ace (Act II) and so he hasn't been featured enough for more people to like him, I guess. Plus he's slightly problematic at times being really direct or even rude but he's just socially awkward/not good at expressing himself imo and definitely Not a bad person at heart. Which I find extremely endearing, I love characters like that (the other one being Iori Izumi from i7).

Nikaidou from 3-gatsu no lion (211 favorites) one of the biggest reasons why Kiriyama got that huge character development. Saying he's a great friend is an understatement, he literally gave Kiriyama the push into becoming a better person.

Yoshitake Tanaka (399 favorites) Not only is he a good friend but he is also the 2nd most hilarious guy in Daily lives of Highschool boys.

Going with the rotation I have now,

It's Satou (Ajin), but he's quite popular with 1,396 favorites

Would have definitely added Rick in MAL if he wasn't removed from the database and he would have definitely been lower in favorites than all of mine due to
1) entry was a short added and was recent
2) people wouldn't think he was in the database

My least popular favorite character is Ahegao Double-Peace-sensei, and she makes my favorites list mainly due to how incredibly stupid her name is. Also, the anime she's in is one of the worst shows ever. She's only favorited by 17 people.

Second least popular is Hilda from Legend of Galactic Heroes with 126 favorites.

Most is Yang Wen-li from Legend of Galactic Heroes (6377), followed by Reinhard (4126) from the same show.

I think that some of the characters from Blend S should deserve more favorites. Like Hideri Kanzaki, Kaho Hinata, and Maika Sakuranomiya. Still trying to find which out of all my favorite characters has the least amount of popularity, so for now I'll just put Kaho with 739 favorites.

My least popular character is Rinko Shirokane with 164 favorites. That's pretty average for a Bandori character. The highest favorited character from Bandori is Yukina with 397 favorites. It makes sense considering Bandori is more of a game than an anime. The people who just watched the anime aren't going to add them to their list.

My most popular character is Kaguya Shinomiya with 10,027 favorites. Her popularity makes sense considering she is a main character of a popular anime/manga.

A weird tie between Andrew Hanbridge (Little witch academia) and Akagi Towa (Go! Princess precure). For Towa its obvious since Precure is a underrated franchise, while for Andrew it could be bc he is a minor character maybe people not liking his attitude.

I guess Lunge from Monster. He was introduced as a foil, and people probably did not like him because he was obsessed with the idea of him being right. Honestly, I found it entertaining, but I thought his character development was really interesting and I really liked him towards the end.

Mine is Kawabata from Diamond no Ace with only 1 favorite. Pretty obvious who that is :P But honestly, he's a minor character that appears for only 2 or 3 episodes but I connected with him A LOT.

Anyways, disregarding that (because there's no way he'd have more favs tbh) my least favorited character is Veronica from Bokura no Kiseki with 9 favorites. Understandable since the manga doesn't seem to have many fans in MAL; it's criminally under-read. Also a manga with no anime adaptation in sight.
Then it'd be Miyu "Kanojo" from Kanojo to Kanojo no Neko: Everything Flows at 21 favorites. A seriously beautiful short anime. Tearjerker, might I add.

Pretty sad huh?

... Then you have the other end of the spectrum: my most favorited character is Edward Elric with over 72000 favs!
Even ignoring him, the next person in line is Thorfinn with over 4000 favs.
Seriously, SOOO varied lol.

Lt. Tsurumi from Golden Kamuy has 138 favorites. None of the characters from that anime have over 1000 favorites, so I guess I can chalk it up to obscurity.

He really is amazing though, he bites off a guy's finger.
