[mikage24.livejournal.com]

Code Geass, along with Gundam is dominating every anime magazine ranking >___< It doesn't seem to slow down any time.[Poll #1204353][Poll #1204353]
Female Anime Character - The best 10 in popularity (人気ベスト10):

No. 1 = C.C. (Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2)
No. 2 = Karen Kouzuki "Kallen Stadtfeld" ( Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2)
No. 3 = Izumi Konata (Lucky Star)
No. 4 = Rei Ayanami (Neon Genesis Evangelion)
No. 5 = Nagisa Furukawa (Clannad)
No. 6 = Lacus Clyne (MS Gundam Seed)
No. 7 = Sumeragi Lee Noriega (Gundam 00)
No. 8 = Sheryl Nome (Macross Frontier)
No. 9 = Shana (Shakugan no Shana II)
No. 10 = Ranka Lee (Macross Fronter)

C.C.'s doing nothing and still at the top. Awesome!!!! Though Kallen's climbing up fast.

New character Sheryl Nome from Macross Frontier is pretty hot and sure has the potential of going higher. I don't know what the hell Lacus's still doing in this ranking though o___O

June 2008 NewType Monthly Ranking - Best 20 Anime:

No. 1 = Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion
No. 2 = Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2
No. 3 = Gundam 00
No. 4 = Macross Frontier
No. 5 = Neon Genesis Evangelion
No. 6 = Gintama
No. 7 = Lucky Star
No. 8 = Clannad
No. 9 = Gundam Seed
No. 10 = The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

Double win >____< I must agree that S1 is better than R2.

And here's a scan of overall anime character ranking but missing top 9:

C.C.'s #9 and Kallen's #12, and I'm pretty sure that Lelouch's still holding on his #1 spot and Suzaku is somewhere between# 2-8 ^^

Edited thanks to kihayo:  Lelouch is number one, and Suzaku is number three.

C.C. is and always will be my favorite character in Geass (alongside Lelouch, of course). For a short time in the beginning of R1, Kallen was ahead of her in the polls, but after episode 11 or so, C.C. skyrocketed to the top and stayed there. Fans may be fickle, but C.C. has a really devoted fanbase that'll stay with her until it's her time to shine in R2 (which, considering the episode summaries from the magazines, will possibly be in a few episodes)

Really though, I think C.C. is far more interesting than Kallen. Dunno, with Kallen...I felt like I've seen her character done before. But it's one of the first times I've seen a character like C.C., and everything she does is just intriguing. It's not like I hate Kallen. She'd be a lot more enjoyable if it wasn't for FANSERVICE (I have the same gripe about C.C., actually, but I don't think hers in comparison is that bad), but I just don't find her all that interesting compared to C.C..

I think it was around ep 1-5 when C.C. appeared no more than 3' in total -___- She did leave really strong impression in the rest of S1 to the point that fans still devoted to her despite her lack of screen time in this season.

The most fanservice C.C. ever provided must be that pink panties in the school festival ep and it was nowhere near the other girls'.
