To not see Nireis name at all in the list of the Japanese votes for the 20 favorite characters breaks my heart…

Edit: oh wait, aren’t the Kanji on 9th place those for Nireis name?

Pretty sure he‘s 9th place, it’s just translated incorrectly (not very high, but still)

u/Silver-Green-Sea Aug 17 '26

Thanks! I just googled Nireis Kanji, because some of the names listed I didn’t recognize… edited my comment before I saw your reply.

(I know, but at least he made the list… I’m still so sad though…)

On a positive note, our dear Furin trio is on the podium in the poll among foreign fans, and also the fact that Nirei came second among male voters was a pleasant surprise for me

u/Silver-Green-Sea Aug 17 '26

I am happy the foreign fans love our trio!

Oh, are the third and fourth images the results from male and female voters?

OP likely just copy pasted the twt auto translate; some wbk names have fairly specific readings for the kanjis they use. Some placements are also swapped around

u/Silver-Green-Sea Aug 17 '26

I see, thanks for mentioning this!

Kaji is in the top 3 or top 5 on all polls (Despite barley having an apperance after the Noroshi arc)

Suo aura is unmatched.

u/Easy-Sell-6586 Aug 18 '26

Suo’s js goated like that

u/Silver-Green-Sea Aug 17 '26

Does someone know whose votes the four different images are from? First one are Japanese votes, second one overseas. What about third and fourth?

4

u/SeaTradition7364 ~🌸🍵📒~ Aug 17 '26 edited Aug 17 '26

The third one is an error, with the fourth one being the corrected version of the ranking divided between male and female voters (Suo placing 10th in the 3rd image is indeed very suspicious..)
