Before I post it F/A popularity poll on next month, I suddenly remember there is one popularity poll had been finished before F/A, F/EXTRA & CCC, and F/SN & HA. Why I never mention it because I forgot. As I mentioned before somewhere in F/A spoiler thread, the poll has been created like 1 year 2 months ago. I knew this thing since every time I visit JBBS Type Moon, there was one or three anons mentioned about it. So I curious and looked it up. The worst part is that this special specific website wouldn't allow you access because it needs identify Japanese IP address only, which itself is inaccessible to non-Japanese IP addresses. Which means non-Japanese can't vote huh?
If anyone asking me what's the name of website, I can't because the fans knew me what am I doing and I have no choice but shut my mouth. I can give plenty hints about the website:
- "It has larger community, over 300 000 users",
- "a lot of fan-arts, fan-fictions, cosplayers, and hot topics, like video game, Comiket and etc" and
- "non-Japanese users can register for the site easily but it will identify your IP".
- One more thing: "It has a lot of relationship connection with TYPE MOON company". Konoe Ototsugu, Wada Arco, CHANxCO, Keikenchi, Hanabana, Kotoyari, a.k.a Kon Manatsu, and Nakaharu are used to be "that one website" users, before they're join TYPE MOON.
Good news is, I have my friend from Japan had one poll he kept it. There's no picture or whatsoever, I will post it if is there anything in next future. This is Fate/Zero popularity poll and what's a poll looks like:
Highest:
- Emiya Kiritsugu, Irisviel von Eiznbern, Waver Velvet, Claudia Ortensia (Optional), Lancelot, Diarmuid ua Duibhne, and Iskandar.
High:
- Uryuu Ryuunosuke, Kariya Matou and Gilles de Rais.
Medium:
- Tokiomi Tohsaka, Kayneth Archibald and Hisau Maiya.
Low:
- (( None ))
Lowest:
- Aoi Tohsaka, Sola-Ui Nuaba-Re Sophia-Ri, Risei Kotomine and Hundred-Faced Hassan.
Original:
No first place, second place, third place and so on, just "highest, high, medium, low and lowest". There is no number of total vote either. The poll reminds me of top-tier fighting game though. Saber, Gilgamesh, Zouken and Kirei, both are on F/SN & FHA poll according from what my friend said, hence both three characters make first appearance in F/SN before prequel. I have no idea what's "optional" mean. Maybe it has to do with how popular Claudia is, you've seen her anywhere when someone mentioning about her, especially tons of Claudia fanart everywhere. Who knows. Oh, I see no Shirley, Byakuya Matou, Kaminiski and others in that list, maybe they are minor characters?最高:
- 衛宮切嗣, アイリスフィール・フォン・アインツベルン, ウェイバー・ベルベット, クラウディア・オルテンシア (任意), ランスロット, ディルムッド・オディナ, イスカンダル。
高い:
- 雨生龍之介, 間桐雁夜, ジル・ド・レェ。
中位:
- 遠坂時臣, ケイネス・アーチボル, 久宇舞弥。
低い:
((なし))
最低:
- 遠坂葵, ソラウ・ヌァザレ・ソフィアリ, 言峰璃正, 百の貌のハサン。
Overall, I read many comments from F/A spoiler thread, saying that Japanese fans have bad tastes but haven't you seen what's their opinion looks like? If yes, then explain how Waver, Iskander, Diarmuid and other are on highest place? Sola-Ui and Aoi are pretty much understandable due to how bad both play their role and lack of screen time in Fate/Zero, you know, Sola-Ui being Diarmuid's stalker and Aoi Tohsaka blaming Kariya?
Holy cow, this is my first blog entry. Shame on me.
