I voted Maya in the past and I'm a real big fan of Masataka, ...

And i really like Sugano, but Bunshishi just has something more, so I voted for Double Impact Tawara today :twisted:

Although Tawara is still the coolest character bar none, the ones I'm most intrigued about right now are Kagiroi, followed closely by Masataka. The former's powers and exact status are still up in the air; the latter's path is so similar to his brother's, you gotta wonder how it will all end.

You know, I don't understand why more people don't feel sorry for Nagi. Everyone views him as a weapon that they need to in order to win. His parents have issues and if he's not careful during a fight he can lose control or worse he'll die. He reminds me of Luke Skywalker and Luke turned out to be badass in the end, so there's hope for Nagi. Oh I still voted for Maya.

Actually, there's also a possibility that he might turn out to be something like Shin--in the same way he became stronger (or went nuts) because the girl he likes, likes someone else. :roll: That would be quite ironic...and quite lame, depending on what happens. I can understand if it was Shin, but Masataka?

Unlike Masataka, I can't picture Nagi going this route--even he becomes the so-called "Monster"--since his reasons for pursuing strength are clearly different regardless of how cliched they may be.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see how this will all turn out.

As for my vote--it's hard to make one right now. There are just too many characters to choose from, so I guess I'll have to wait until a few F characters are fleshed out before I make my vote. Hopefully, there will be some background on them. (especially on Kagiroi or Sohaku...)

Voted for Masataka in the first one, but man gotta change my vote to Aya. I have to admit, her character started to grow on me since the past few chapters.

A little bit more mature and seeing how she's developing the use of the Dragon Eye (even subconsciously) def is interesting. Finally not as annoying as she was in the beginning with constantly following Nagi... :twisted:

I'm torn between Ishyumi and Asshat. I'll go with Ishy, since he's such a badass and I love his powers.
1- Takayanagi Masataka
2- Sugano Kagesada
3- Natsume Maya
4- Tawara Bunshichi
5- Kurei Shinichiro
6- Ishiyumi Tessen
7- Fu Chi'en
8- Natsume Shin
9- Makihara Bob
10- Kagoroi
With the exception of Maya, Shin, Fu and Kagoroi (the first 3 I never cared for and the last one I have no idea who that is?). That's exacly like my top fav list, only without Aya.

1 - Tawara (cool, strong, funny & perverted - I voted for him in the last poll and didn't change my mind. My role model ;) )
2 - Masataka (I always liked him and finally he gets some more attention)
3 - Maya, Aya (both hot 'n sexy, I like Maya's character better, but as Myoism noticed Aya has grown recently so she may turn out to be ok if the character growth continues)
4 - Asshat (king of all players, funny as hell + he has an army of sexy bodyguards)
5 - Bob (big, strong, black, can take a whole army of chicks and has a huge penis :lol:)

Nope :twisted: (/me checks inside his pants...)...umm.. No, I'm definetely not a girl. I do not dress as a girl, do not like men the way girls like'em and not gay (just to clear everything up so there's no misunderstandings :D )

...I should add that he's also cool, funny and uses that flashy capoeira.... and that he's my second role model after Tawara.... ;)
But I was tired after work and forgot.

Post by Isuzu »

Still the same - I like Isuzu, and there's nothing that would change that... and I'm looking forward to the next chapters, because it seems that she will be seen more often again...

The anime just strenthened that - I mean, she's not only hot, but she's also highly likeable... she dedicates all she has to the man she loves, which is quite a thing, because most girls aren't so devoted, heh heh.

Plus, I like her little extra appeareances in the anime - the pic in my sig doesn't even exist in the manga, but well, at least the producers figured out that Isu-chan deserves more screentime.


The second place in my personal list of favourites is reserved for Natsume Maya - even if she beat up my beloved Isuzu, she still is a really interesting character, the most interesting for me concerning the good guys.

[edit]Yeah, I finally made my 100st post...[/edit]

Kagurazaka is still my favorite. He's actually in the poll this time.
Asshat is still my second favorite. I plan on cosplaying as him someday.
I like Kurei more than I used to. He now ranks as third.
I still like Bunshichi.

Takayanagi Masataka has been my favorite character since i picked up this book and hes only gotten cooler. I was devastated when Oh! Great said he was planning on making him the main character then desided to move in a different direction.

I've always liked Masataka and I like Nagi alot more recently. I was hoping to see a reamatch between the two but after fight 78, it doesn't look like it will happen any time soon. These are my two fav characters.

The Agito in me likes Maya, the Akito in me likes Takayanagi. I like Madoka, but I gave the vote to her so she at least gets one vote ^_^

Edit: Ooops guess I wasn't being specific enough, I meant Masataka, but Mitsuomi ain't bad either ^_^

This poll is weird.

TJTG gods, Maya and Tawara, are getting minimal love, while that dork Masataka is gathering all the votes.

Damn you, Oh!Great. Damn you for Volume 11. 8)

It was a hard choice between Izuzu, Masataka, and Tawara, but I have to go with Masataka in the end. You know, it kinda feels that he should be the main character... is it just me?

One reason I think most people can't connect with Souichirou is the fact that Oh! Great really hasn't gone into his families past. Frankly, we don't know much about why Souichirou likes talking smack and fighting so much. It could all be because he suffers from an inferiority complex for all we know. I'm hoping Oh! Great starts explaining the Nagi and Kago families pasts soon.

I love them all but had to give Aya-chan some love...it's the hair...(and maybe the bod too)plus she's finally maturing along with Nagi and getting cooler. Almost went with Masataka or Bunshichi but they've been kinda quiet since the Fu fight, plus Mitsuomi has gotten cooler lately...we need more than one vote.

Madoka, of course. It's hard to beat a little schoolgirl who carries enough weapons strapped in her legs to arm a small country.

I'm surprised Bob didn't get any votes yet - He was my fav. until the "f" members came along.

Perhaps, but even Asshat has votes.

So far the results of this poll have been rather surprising. Masataka in the lead? Did I miss something?

Good question. What happened to the previous leading duo in the old poll--Bunshichi and Maya?

Well, Bunshichi hasn't been showing up lately but then again, he was there helping out Masataka during the Fu fight. And Maya's been everywhere in the recent chapters.

Personally, there are just too many characters whereas a person can only vote once. You'll have to really think about your choice.

Well, we had this poll when Masataka started kicking all sorts of ass. Volume 11 WAS Masataka, so to speak.

So, he had his thing going, he was on a roll.

Maya and Bunshichi were more of the older storyline heroes, thus, they were more popular back then. Who knows... with this new storyline maybe we'll see Nagi on top...

A scary thought, though. 8)

Naw, that guy is still trash IMO. Something Dramtic would have to happend like sacrificing his life or something. Mitsoumi, Shohaku , and even Saga Mask seem more likeable than him.

Personally, Masataka has been my favourite since the begining. I always go for the mr.nice guy (as its pretty much what I'm like), plus he is the true warrior afterall :P But then again, I'm begining to think there is no such thing as the true warrior. Perhaps the end conclusion will be that no individual can overcome any obstacle. People must work together... blah.

ps. Masataka's path is not the same as Shin because he loves someone who loves someone else. If you look into it a bit more, wasn't Mitsuomi's path exactly the same? The circumstances were different (with the takayanagi name etc) but ultimately he ended up becoming a monster because he loved Maya. She wouldn't let him protect her because she loved her brother too much and he ended up becoming a monster to put an end to it... those are my thoughts ^.^

More like she loved Mitsuomi so much she rather give him up than have him be killed by Shin. And Mitsuomi did become a monster but only because he let himself be overwhelmed by his power, I guess you can blame that on wanting to protect Maya but I don't see it that way...

By that same token, Shin only became a monster because he was overwhelmed by his power. True he was used as a tool, but so was Mitsuomi. Also, at this stage, I do not really think Mitsuomi is a monster afterall. We don't actually know the real reasons why he has been acting the way he has, it is only starting to be revealed with all that is going on. I know being overwhelmed by his power has a part to play, but lately he has shown a more human side...

I can't believe Nagi got more votes than Tawara :P

Tawara might be a big perv, but he's a cool big perv :D

Where Nagi is just an out of control kid who happens ot have been born into a powerful bloodline :)

He's just powerful because he was born, Tawara is powerful because he made it happen...

That wasn't Tawara :?

That was 'guy who raped CHiaki'-dude ...

Or maybe Tawara said it too but I forgot, I remember him poking Aya's breasts however :)


By the way, the past arc tawara seamed alot tamer at first :)

But then he chases Isuzu and his tame nature and innocence is gone :p

True and yes I know Ryuzaki also said that, but Bunshichi makes comments about breasts constantly too. I remember him once commenting on someone's being 'lethal weapons' too. XD
