They have been released at last! While there's a few surprises, the top five remained exactly the same, but I'll let you see for yourself:



Results for the 2nd Official Character Popularity Ranking
Comments with the * were the writer of the article on the official site.

1. Lelouch Lamperouge
2. Kallen Stadtfeld
3. Kururugi Suzaku
4. C.C.
5. Jeremiah Gottwald

*Top 5 are exactly the same as last time

6. Nunnally Lamperouge (Up from 7th)
7. Lloyd Asplund (Down from 6th)
8. Shirley Fennette
9. Euphemia Li Britannia (Up from 10th)
10. Schneizel El Britannia (First appearance)

*Nunnally finally triumphs over Lloyd. Euphemia has unexpectedly little votes. Perhaps it's because she's the biggest obstacle to Lelouch?

11. Mao (First appearance)
12. Villetta Nu (Up from 14th)
13. Toudou Kyoushirou (Up from 16th)
14. Milly Ashford (Down from 9th)
15. Cornelia Li Britannia (Down from 12th)

*Perhaps it's due to the votes being divided after the introduction of new characters, but both Milly and Cornelia have unexpectedly lost quite a number of votes. Villtta, on the other hand, has managed to secure a higher position.

16. Clovis La Britannia (Down from 13th)
17. Asahina Shougo (First appearance)
18. Kirihara Taizou (First appearance)
19. Cecile Croomy (Down from 15th)
20. Sumeragi Kaguya (First appearance)

Someone also made a nice video with of the rankings; I thought it was nicely done, so check it out:

Watch on YouTube

Ok, time for my comments: Wtf is Kirihara doing on the top 20? And the lack of Laksharta and Cecile's low ranking upset me. Guess no one too fond of obsessive stalkers, huh? That would explain the lack of Diethard. Another surprise is Kaguya, who hasn't had a line and has only appeared for a second, on the list. I'm personally looking forward to seeing her next episode because her character design is adorable and I want to see how she acts around Zero.

No Laksharta love? That is so sad....she totally owns most of the characters that made it on the ranking.

[whitedestiny1x2.livejournal.com]

Haha, Lelouch has a tight hold on first. Figures. :D Anyway, thanks for sharing the vid! I agree with you; it is awesomely made!!

[rewritten.livejournal.com]

WTF? Why are Kaguya and Taizou even on this list?? Cecile should be alot higher than 19!! D: lol- Clovis, why are you on here?
Shougo lol- they love him already!

I'm glad Mao is on this list!! :D BUT OMG LLOYD? HE WENT DOWN? BEATEN BY NUNNALLY? D:

OMG ORANGE YOU ARE AWESOME STILL IN THE TOP FIVE AFTER BEING GONE FOR HALF THE SEASON! <333

lol - Kallen is #2? Too bad you're being written out for the rest of this season. XD Not surprised Lulu is one, but I expected Suzaku to be #2, of well.

Like that video! GO GO EMPEROR!

Where's Gawain and Gurek Mk. II? :P

[spleen.livejournal.com]

Poor Cecile.

Poor Lloyd, too.

;_;

But YAY Orange-kun. XD You did well. And I'm glad to see Suzaku up at 3rd.

[zidane.livejournal.com]

I loved that "....pizza" was in the vid XD

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

Wow! Zenryoku, Orenji kun! XDDD And Clovis hasn't been in it since episode 3; that's pretty good going to hold a place! ^-^b

But clearly Llopyd is utterly superior to boring Nunally in every way! Something went wrong; I demand a recount! XD

[nayami.livejournal.com]

I'm going to say right now I never understand the Kaguya love or the anticipation with her or anything else that revolves around her. She's just kind of there half the time. Or a quarter of the time. Maybe a sliver of the time.

[flame-s.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. I'm surprised Rivalz wasn't on the list. That's too bad. I'm happy for the Top 3 since, there my favourite characters, anywayz.

[hylarn.livejournal.com]

How the hell did Taizou get on there? At least Kaguya looks cute. The lack of Diethard and Laksharta sucks, too.

[saorren.livejournal.com]

Wtf is Kirihara doing on the top 20?

thats exactly how i felt when i realized orange-kun's popularity. i saw no big reason for him to be so popular but i guess at least he has more air time than Kirihara... wtf... kirihara is that old dude? anyway, another prove that japanese people hv strange taste... well, not like i dont but meh!

and YAY for lulu!! <3

thanks for posting =)

[strike-akabane.livejournal.com]

OMG! It's the old Black Jack anime opening! I luv that show!
Anyways, YAAAY for the rankings!!!

[empanadas]

What the... no.

Kirihara and Sakuya should not be on that list. D: Laksharta, however, should!

[brennadouglasmw.livejournal.com]

Where is Rivalz?? D: Why is he not on the list at all? He and Laksharta definitely need love; Cecile needs more; and so does Ried.

Yay for Orange-kun, though! And Lloyd. :3

[may-neuma.livejournal.com]

I'm not freaked out if schneizel is amongst the top ten but WTF? What's Kirihara's doing there *shocks* Dude, that grandpa is just plain weird and shrivelled And no Laksharta or Diethard to boot =| Although, I'm quiet surprised that Suzaku beats CC... perhaps Japanese yaoi fangirl who's deeply in love with SuzaLulu have their hands on this XD

~ m a y ~

Schneizel/Kaguya is my "how the fuck do you people have so many fans, gawd &hearts " OTP.

[vehemence.livejournal.com]

Okay... can someone tell me who the last one on the list, Sumeragi Kaguya is? The name Sumeragi just makes me think of CLAMP's Sumeragi Subaru so I was like whoa!

[zai-shana.livejournal.com]

weeee congratz to lulu to be the first but too bad C.C is just only on top 4 :C

[x-reggg.livejournal.com]

i'm quite amused by jeremiah being 5th XDDD

and the tag, please :D

[rukawagf.livejournal.com]

what the heck. that's Black Jack's opening! That's so weird XD

erm I'm more surprise Rivalz isn't up there T>T

[fukou.livejournal.com]

[haitechan.livejournal.com]

What the heck is Kirihara doing there? o_O And Kaguya?? But Orange-kun is on the top 5! Go Orenji XD!!! Poor Rivalz, seems that japanese fans don't like him too much TT_TT (He isn't Sasuke or Ishida but I like him!) And Schneizel and Mao are on the list! I like twisted guys! (including Lulu of course!) But poor Cecile-san and Laksharta, they deserve a better place! And the video was amuzing! WTF was doing Akito Tenkawa with Schneizel's Knights? LOL!
