Newtype Romance never ceases to amuse

[aestalitz.livejournal.com]

Some time back, someone posted up Code Geass' rankings in Newtype polls but well, Newtype Romance has some additional polls of their own.

Please note that as Newtype Romance is a magazine is catered towards the ladies, the polls are obviously all about the guys and extremely ridiculous. This is the very same magazine which once had a section on how to style your hair like Lelouch's, people. :D;;

Hastily scanned and resized, excuse the quality? ^^;




Best 10 "omgggg weeeeep" (something like that) scenes:
#1: R2 Turn 25
#2: R2 Turn 19
#3: Stage 23
#4: R2 Turn 13
#5: Stage 14
#6: R2 Turn 18
#7: R2 Turn 17
#8: R2 Turn 9
#9: R2 Turn 24
#10: R2 Turn 22

I only cried for the first two, but some people actually cried at the last three? Guess I'm not sentimental enough.


Synthesis Character Ranking: whatever that is
#1 Lelouch Lamperouge
#10 Kururugi Suzaku
#18 Gino Weinberg
#28 Rolo Lamperouge



"Nice Combi" Ranking:
#1 Lelouch Lamperouge & Kururugi Suzaku
#5 Lelouch Lamperouge & C.C.

I think Natsume & Nyanko-sensei should be #1 instead of #2. Their constant snarking at each other is A+++. [/off-topic] The little poll ranking thing in the first scan is for mascots, but apparently Arthur isn't popular enough. :(


"Nice Brothers" Ranking:
#1 Lelouch Lamperouge & Rolo



"Nice Megane" Ranking: (i.e. best characters wearing spectacles)
#5 Lloyd Asplund

Random non-Geass tidbit: The top three were all characters voiced by Kamiya Hiroshi. XD #1 Tieria from Gundam 00, #2 Michael from Macross Frontier and #3 Itoshiki Nozomu from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.


"Looks good as/like a lady" ranking: (LOLOLOL THEIR CHOICES *thumbs up*)
#5 Lelouch Lamperouge

But they should've used a pic of crossdressing!Lelouch. All the guys in this ranking are crossdressing! Okay, I don;t know about Wolfram, it's been a long time since I've watched KKM!


"Male seiyuu you think would look good in glasses" ranking:
#2 Sakurai Takahiro (Suzaku)
#3 Fukuyama Jun (Lelouch)

For the #1 seiyuu Kamiya Hiroshi, see the first scan for Nice Megane Ranking.


"Nice Big-Girly Men" Ranking: (Well, I'm not sure, but it's called onee-MAN so we can all use our imagination 8D)
#5 Kanon Maldini

I got a heart attack when I realized that Grell (#1) has the same voice as Lelouch. He's like, a sparkly Lelouch!


"Nice Hiza Kozou (literally "Knee Brats" lol whut) Ranking:
#3 Rolo Lamperouge


"Nice Hetare (lame, pathetic) Ranking:
#1 Lelouch Lamperouge (LOLOLOLOL)
I also approve of #5.


"Nice Male Team" Ranking:
#2 Knight of Rounds

GASP BUT WHAT ABOUT ANYA, MONIKA AND NONNETTE? Okay, it should just be the Suzaku-Gino team.

And then it's back to the usual rankings like Best Anime, Best Anime Theme Songs, but those are normal.

Feel free to discuss the rankings and polls. (Mods, can we discuss other fandoms in the comments too? ;w;?)

I cried while watching Turn 19 and Turn 25(<---flat out bawling nonstop, it was pretty pathetic-looking)

Synthesis Character Ranking DO WANT complete translation~

Yayyy, Natsume and Nyanko-sensei XD LOL at Romantica, Yuuram, and Lockon and Haro as well XD And I love all the brothers! Super happy to see the Usami brothers there XD

Yay Lloyd! and also *thumbs up* to all the 'looks good as a lady' choices XD Grell, Leeron, and Kanon LOL. Yay 'knee brats' 1 and 3! :D

Nice Hetare Ranking 5 - Poor Patrick, it's so true! XD Yesss, Knight of Rounds and Gundam Meisters<333

Too much WIN all around...mind if I borrow part of your translations and your scans to post in junjou_fanatics? :3

I cried so much for Turn 25 that the two pieces of tissue I was using tore. (And I was using kitchen-type, you know, the thick kind to wipe of grease.) Actually I already teared up looking at screencaps. I am pathetic Y/Y?

I'm not sure what the synthesis one is about, but the description mention "otome/girl's heart" so I'm think it has something to do with how girls feel about a character.

Go ahead and take the ones with Junjou Romantica mentioned :3

No, not pathetic at all - that episode was just that BAWWW-worthy :'D I forgot tissues, my face and hands from wiping my eyes were just dripping all over the place...I had to lean back a little so I wouldn't get any tears on my laptop.

Ohhh, I see. Yayyy, I already posted it XD

[faye-naruse.livejournal.com]

Oh, and would you mind if laxdia14 shared them in a Kyo Kara Maoh! community?

[aestalitz.livejournal.com]

Oh, no prob, go ahead. Just upload the pics to your own server/photobucket? :3
