While they've already told us what the then-current official character rankings were a few days ago (1. Lelouch, 2. Kallen, 3. Suzaku, 4. Jeremiah, 5. CC, 6. Lloyd, 7. Shirley) another set has just been released with significant changes, up on the Official Blog. Current results :

1. Lelouch (he seems well-entrenched)
2. Suzaku
3. Kallen
4. CC
5. Jeremiah
6. Nanaly
7. Lloyd
8. Shirley
9. Millay
10. Euphemia

Woooo! Orange kun is #5! But...why isn't Lloyd #1? Most perplexing. Hmmm. And who in their right mind voted for Shirley to be anywhere!? Madness! XD The poll displays both brilliance and insanity!

Millay is so much more awesome than Shirley wtf.

i love ur ava!! XDDD

[seraphim-12.livejournal.com]

XD, I like it too!

[haro.livejournal.com]

I'm really weirded out by how low Euphemia is, considering she's Lacus 2.0 and Lacus is insanely popular over there. ...Kind of annoyed to see Shirley and Nanaly above her, but it might change in time.

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

Can't say Euphemia is my favourite, but yeah, it's a little odd. Perhaps it's how Geass' got a radically different atmosphere from G.Seed?

[haro.livejournal.com]

I think the fanbases are a lot of the same people though, even in Japan. They seem to be from what I've seen looking around, but who knows. XD

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

I know a lot of the fanbase is the same, but Geass...just works really, really differently. The hero's goal/desire in SeeD is to stop the cruel war, which coincides with Lacus', while that is clearly not the case with Euphemia. Instead of showing her decision to be wise (because war is cruel and should be stopped) we're shown that it's naive (because life is cruel and struggling is the only way).

And I don't know...I really liked Lacus, but that's probably because---despite the pink hair and Peace for All---she's actually a smart woman. In a way, she could sort of be Lelouch if he's born as Euphemia. Yuffie COULD be like that, but we haven't seen her doing anything yet. (Lacus didn't actually 'show' her smart side until very late, I know, but still!)

[haro.livejournal.com]

I could agree with that. Yuffie certainly isn't exactly like her, and Lacus definitely seemed more intelligent and sure of her motivations even in the beginning than Yuffie does. We'll see how she develops. ^^

Yay for Lulu and Suzaku being #1 and #2.

Shirley is #9? *rolls eyes* there are plenty of characters not on the list that is better than her.

Woe, my girl, Cornelia didn't make the list.

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

She's actually #8. And yes, I would agree, even though I like her.

[eurys.livejournal.com]

Go Suzaku!
Sad to see a lack of Cornelia and Clovis.

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

I voted for Clovis! :D I figured my favourites didn't need the vote but poor Clovis might, and I was sadly right. T.T I guess Cornelia just hasn't been around long enough.

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

I gave my second vote to Clovis. :[ (And the third to Lulu again, to even the score. I suck, shush. In my defense, the site practically encourages this voting tug-o'-war game.)

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

:D I voted for Lloyd this time. I will vote for Orange kun next; he seems to be doing fine on his own. ^-^ Lloyd must be higher though! And Shirley must be edged off completely! lol.

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

You know, one thing this comm seems to have all agreed on is that Shirley shouldn't be on the list. XD Orange-kun is popular, dude. I actually think he's just a little less well-loved than Lulu, it's just that he's not the "I vote for him!" type. There's even a clique of sorts with an orange with 全力 written on it. XD

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

It always rather amazes me when other people also like the characters I like! :D But it's great. ^0^ Well, he's the list's number 1 (proper) Brittanian, so that's a great thing. Wow, I want to join the powerful orange clique! lol!

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

The funniest thing is probably how 全力 is like his most used line, it's something of an identifier. XD (Lelouch's fourth fan favourite line is the one he tells Orange-kun to let him get away "全力"-ly, btw)

I wonder how Jeremiah would take it if he knows that in some distant otherworld, his fangirls are hugging his plushies and calling his name of shame like it's the cutest puppy in the universe. XD

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

You can't deny he's keen!

It is the cutest puppy in the universe! He would be completely mortified! lol! But sadly for him, embarressment is also rather cute! >:) (Which is why Lelouch's number one line was his undignifed yet hilarious squeak of horror! Fangirls are a cruel species! :D)

[capella-aurigae.livejournal.com]

Obviously Lulu wins. Yay, Nanaly made 6! I really like her. Millay and Euphemia really should be higher than Shirley...

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

Nanaly REALLY shot up since the last count. :D She was 8 before, or so it's written in this post.

Shirley's the hopeless crush semi-osanajimi and I'm afraid the Japanese people have a soft streak a mile wide for those.

[kanki-yamato.livejournal.com]

Yeah!!!! Suzaku is second and Kallen third!!!!!i'm so happy!!!!!!

[brennadouglasmw.livejournal.com]

Rival, my dearest, why are you not even on the list!?

T_T Rival is made of awesome. He should be on the list...

But YAY for Jermiah Orange-kun being number 5. HOTNESS. XD

[verity-isle.livejournal.com]

I know. D: He's so more awesome than Shirley! Without Suzaku, he's pretty much Lelouch's best friend...and I'd say he's also somewhat better at general friendnerry than Suzaku, who's more like, you know, a bag of almost-forgotten-but-not-quite childhood letters.

[brennadouglasmw.livejournal.com]

Agh, I know! Why did that damn Eleven have to come along and ruin things for Rival!? XD

*cries and snuggles with Rival*

[queen-marshed.livejournal.com]

I'm not surprised that Nanaly is this high up, afterall she is a blind frail moe who happens to have a heart of gold... definately a fanboy magnet...

Lulu seems pretty comfy there at the top...

[haro.livejournal.com]

That's a little disturbing. Poor Nanaly. o.o

[empanadas]

Yay for Lelouch staying at number 1! :D I voted him twice already. Also yay for Suzaku, C.C, and Kallen. =3

Strange that Euphemia is low but since she's pretty new, it's understandable.
