Mine is Lucy Steel from Steel Ball Run with only 108 favs.
Thing is she's from a manga which already makes her less popular and also SBR has many great and way more popular characters (like Gyro who's also on my list and has more than 6k).
I don't even know how she's perceived in the fandom but she's definitely not one of the most popular JJBA characters for sure.

Floch Forster from AoT with only 30 favs. Everyone misunderstands him, only a few are aware of his greatness

Juudai From Yu Gi Oh GX.

People just don't understand realistic character development.

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.

That's cool. My least popular fav character totsuka from oregairu with around 1700+. Yeah I am a bit biased towards oregairu 😅😅

From my top 10 favorites, Mafuyu Kurosaki from Oresama Teacher (418 favorites), which makes sense since the series doesn't have an anime (yet T^T).

the least popular one in my favorites is incidentally my number 1: Yamabiki / Shokuryou Jinrui ( member favorites: 5 ) - simple reason I guess, there are not as many people on Mal who read manga as people who watch anime

now if you wanted only anime not manga characters, it would be Ki El Dogra / Level E ( member favorites: 425 ) - guess the show is just not popular enough ?

Othinus from Index: New Testament with 224 favorites.

Coming in second is Karuizawa Kei from Classroom of the Elite with 284 favorites.

Well both of these were from light novels and not many people read that so it makes sense for them to be that low. Though I'm pissed that Kei is so low because the director of Classroom of the Elite is such a Horikita fanboy that they gave her the role which is supposed to be Kei's and that role is very important for her since none of this would've happened if it wasn't for her. Also the reason why we probably won't get season 2 of You-zitsu.

Mine is Komugi Musashi from HenSemi with 18 favories.
The anime isn't not too obscure but not that popular either, with little more than 38k completed, so that's part of the reason.

But the fact is, that guy is a pevert, literally the white knight of perversion in an anime with only perverts.
I can see why not many would like him.

Crusch Karsten from Re:Zero with 522. I fail to understand the conflicts between Rem and Emilia fans when Crush is clearly the best girl of the show. She is also the best royal candidate, even if Emilia will (probably) be the one selected in the end.

Azumi, she has only 19 favorites, most likely because her manga is old, not well known and got no anime.

Miyabi Oomichi easily. She's from GA Geijutsuka art design class which isn't that popular at all.
She's cool and GA is a really good anime, they deserves more attention imo

I have both Tanda and Balsa from Seirei no Moribito on my favs list, because I like them both as individual characters as well as the relationship that they have. How they interact is really wholesome and interesting to me. Balsa sits just above 2k favs, with Tanda having 48. He's by far the lowest on my list.

I enjoy all the characters from Ristorante Paradiso, and they are all criminally underrated. I don't believe any of them have over 50 favorites.

Pucchan from Gokujou Seitokai (9 favorites). I understand because the show is not very popular, but he is what makes that show as good as I believe it to be. He is definitely one of the lower characters in my favorites, but he's on there, so yeah.

I'm incredibly surprised to see that my "least-faved favorite" is
Sakura-hime from Tsubasa
with just 34 faves. I thought it would be Kadode, whose source has never been animated, or Akane onee-san who is just a minor character, iirc you don't clearly see her until Yuru Yuri S2. To think it would be the main character of a well-known series... ^^;;

Ai Hayasaka with 3493 favorites, that's a really high amount especially considering she's a side character in her show. All of my favorites are pretty basic I guess since they all have a high amount of favorites.

That would be Lyndis with a whopping 6 favorites. I assume this is probably because most people that have played Fire Emblem 7 and are on MAL don't know she even has an entry.

Probably Ging from Hunter x Hunter.

No surprise why people don't like him. I understand why. He's a deadbeat dad and seemed to not care at all about his son, and focused more on what he himself wanted from life, rather than taking care of his son.

That said...Ging is so amazing to me. He's strong, confident, smart, daring, brave, and does what he wants, when he wants, and no one in the world can tell him otherwise. He's admirable, to me. In some weird way I look up to him and I can completely understand why Gon looks up to him too. Even though he's a butt. Ging is incredible and he's a very cool character, imo.

I'm 100% team Ging.

I actually like Princess Sakura much more than Sakura... and that says a lot when I like her and all of the characters greatly.

Ooh, I remember reading the webcomic (iirc). It was so cute and fluffy! Thank you for reminding me of this gem <3


I'm always happy when I see someone who has read Back Alley Life! It's the cutest manga I've read, and seeing other people being interested to read it simply makes me happy!

Glad that I could remind you of it!

Mine would probably be: https://myanimelist.net/character/143218/Velvet_Crowe
I don't find it suprising since not a lot of people here have played Tales of Berseria (at least not from what i've seen) which is kinda sad since i think it's a pretty great game, with some unique and memorable characters in it, especially Velvet.

Mine is Lucia Fex from Promare, as she only has 29 favorites. There are a couple reasons I think she might not be very popular.
1. She's from a movie that hasn't been out for very long, and not a lot of people have watched it.
2. She's one of the less noticeable characters, and she doesn't show up as much as the main characters.

Ichika Tachibana from Uta∽Kata.



I mean, come on, can you really hate on that face?? She's just so cute and she had some good character development. I only imagine she has 18 favorites because not many people really care for Uta∽Kata (kinda sad, but I can understand why).

Honorable mentions: Neku Sakuraba and Shiki Misaki.



Neku does at least have a decent amount of favorites (Neku has 193 favs while Shiki has 19), but that's probably cuz he's the main character of the game he's from. I mean, I can't blame people for putting him in Favorites that much; he was genuinely awesome, relatable, pretty funny, and overall a really good main character... it's sad that Shiki isn't loved as much though.
I can only believe these two are unpopular because people somehow still don't know about the masterpiece that is The World Ends With You. Can't wait for the new anime adaptation by the way ♥ !!
