Apparently, animals were included in the character popularity poll. : l
I wonder to what degree Americans will agree with these results after they've gotten their hands on the NA release of the game.
Anyone surprised, or suddenly questioning how much they'll like a character?
(If this has already been posted, I apologize; I looked and found nothing.)

Dirka and Juris are pretty close, eh? One vote to tie, haha. xD
Character popularity polls are always neat~
Thought Kagetsu would be a little higer though~ ;w;

Ahaha, I would've figured Juris bein' number one. :'D
Can't believe Schmidt and Kagetsu are that far down, though.

Thought the same thing here, too~
I'm betting he'd get first though, if one was held in NA. :'D

This is quite creepy, Ein. )':
It would've been nice if they did a wallpaper or something too, like they did for Chase in AP~
But the handhelds never get as much media as the console ones, haha. :C Official wallpaper, comics, etc.

Schmidt being so far down is really odd to me.
I like Juris the most though, so his place was not surprising to me.
And if the animals are on there, the cats need more love.

Maybe they care more about personality than looks?
Many people who haven't played this game do like Juris and Schmidt because they are handsome. But if they play it, maybe they will change their opinion about them. You know, the looks isn't everything. Maybe the gamers will find them boring?

Japanese and Westerners will always have different opinions on the characters. x3
Chase is the most popular in Japan and yet Ushians showed a great love for Luke and Wizzy. Hurrhurr....
Surprises me who got first though... well I guess now that I think about it... makes sense. -nods-

I'm sorry, but I just have to say it. DIRKKKKKKKKKKKAAAAAAAA! He's my favorite bachelor. Though I agree, Schmidt being so low is kinda weird to me (though I don't really like him).

HM characters have never dazzled me with their bottomless personalities. The descriptions are almost always accurate to what they're like in the game, so I can accurately pick who I'm going to like once I play the game.

I never though very many people would love Dirka so much. :/ Even though he's cool, he's kind of childish. He's like the bachelor in almost every HM game that makes you feel like a pedo.
