Yes! YES!! Nagato Yuki and Senjogahara! There's still hope in this world.
Have at you, K-ON!!
uh wait what?! Where is Horo?? And what the hell is Yuki Nagato doing there?! omg..
I don't understand the appeal of Yuki, she's a monotone, robotic empty space
It's the Rei-clone appeal.
Isn't that what all men want?
Haruhi should be 8th...
wtf this is the the 2nd time i see this here.
it's suppose to be Top 10 Female Characters of the Decade,but 2000-2010 is not a decade if you did not know ....again wtf
2000-2009= last decade

28, Hinata Natsumi
29, Shana
30, Furukawa Nagisa
31, Aisaka Taiga
32, Akiyama Mio
Wow, no Horo in top 30???
I guess the answer is simple:
She's a goddess, therefor automatically the best, so there no need to make a list with her.
Now, how can Nanoha rank higher than Fate?
Well, at least Kagura (Ga-Rei Zero one right?), Kallen, Misaka, Nagisa, Ranka, Nanoha, Fate, Mio and Yui made it in.
I'm satisfied.
Ooh, and Mari. She's an awesome addition to the Eva girls.
Also, people go way too far in degrading other people's favorites. But that's the internet for you... (^.^:)
Not bad, at all. The full list pretty much covers everything and at the very least mentions the strongest females leads of the decade. I disagree with a lot of the placement, but it's fine, since Newtype fanbase is expected to have different tastes than mine.
But there is a big problem. Horo? Seriously would have thought she would at LEAST be somewhere in there.
DAMN YOU SHINKU!
WE ALL KNOW SUIGINTOU DESERVES YOUR PLACE!
.......Yes but, I also like Shinku's voice..."Jun"
This list has a huge lack of Ryougi Shiki.
Seriously, where is Konata????? She is THE GODDESS
Ok, the list is somewhat wtf... I mean
1) Sheryl. Ok I like Sheryl, true, but top 10 of the decade? >_> Not sure. I suppose it's a vote to the franchise's best decade girl rather than a vote for Sheryl herself.
2) Shinky. My favorite RM doll but female of the decade?
3) Saber. Not sure how Saber made it on the list, not that she's bad, but I fail to see how she could top females from other series.
Basically the only ones I can see being in that list (whether I like them or not are)
1) Random Gundam girl(s). Gundam is big (for good or ill) so there was bound to be someone there, the same way Macross is big enough to warrant a Macross girl.
2) C.C. Series Mojo... no wait, Lelouch mojo, there's no CG without Lelouch anyway. Personally I like her enough, she's this decade's favorite witch and the usual Lelouch partner so I suppose she shares some of his immense popularity.
3) Haruhi. I'm generally against Haruhi, her insane hype and mostly her uber-retarded fanbase, but her name became big news for whatever reason.
4) Senjougahara. The insane success of something unfinished, only a weirdly delicious female like Senjougahara could make it happen. Not that the other girls weren't nice. That and Arararararagaki is a nutcase himself.
yes gundam is #
where's my Rena Ryuugu and Rika Furude? =3
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagisa!!!
i find #6 to #10 more interesting than Haruhi and co personally, , but otherwise i more or less agree with this ranking...
Macross and Gundam being both old franchises that still have a huge success nowadays they kinda deserve their place there also.
Even in her mopey, EMO state, Cagalli was awesome.
I'm sure I fapped to Lacus more than I did with Cagali.First and second should switch.
Man... I agree with some of the shows, but I prefer the opposing female character...
Ranka Lee
Suruga Kanbaru
Kalled Kouzuki
Rin Tohsaka
Sigh... Mature, sultry ladies are not for me at all.
real womens r not for u then
Precisely. (^.^)
The list seems pretty biased toward shows that just came out. This is why 'x of the decade' should get released a decade later to see what we really remember.
Pointless list is pointless. I wonder why so many guys measure their own worth by affirming that their favorite characters are in some dubious list.
Hmmmm.... for the lulz I guess.
REMOVE CAGALLI!!!! >_> WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE???
She is only awesome.
WHAT, No Ryougi Shiki?
This list is shit ;-;
In my own list ..
1) Horo
2) Sheryl
3) Senjougahara Hitagi
In random order.. The rest didnt matter.
The lack of moe-blobs is disturbing.
.
where's my Shanaaaaaa
And yea, Sakura Shinguuji is a <3 <3 <3
no top 10 TRAPS of the decade?
I am disappoint.
My faves on the list are Sheryl, CC and Saber but where is Aisaka Taiga? This list is a crime against tsundere!
Tsunderes are a dime a dozen. They have become token characters in just about every show and those formulaic tsunderes become boring. Oh, you know those. They beat up male characters for no apparent reason only to go blushing a few episodes later when the male characters save some stupid cat.
Only the different ones get remembered, like Haruhi and Senjogahara.
Man personally i just think this is all wrong. *nods*
where the fuck is Yoko? She's 2000's Tifa! And isn't Sakura Taisen an anime from the 90's anyway? I demand a recount!
All you people saying "omg where's k-on" and all these other characters, Newtype is a Sci-Fi anime magazine, which is why there are higher ranking mecha anime characters than moeblobs.
Or to put it more bluntly:
THE MAGAZINE IS NAMED AFTER A TERM FROM THE ORIGINAL MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM. WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU EXPECTING IT TO PANDER TO THE GENERAL MOEBLOB OTAKU?
Yuki, Shinku and C.C. shouldn't be on there.
Sheryl <3
Hmm... it's as if they don't even watch anime...
Speaking of which where the fuck is yoko and revi?
Want to enjoying them all.....
Since it's NewType, Gundam series characters take the top, even though the series is now several years old.
Shinku... isn't she getting old for a doll to be on the list?
Yuki and Haruhi still that high after Endless Eight? Apparently they need to crash back down to earth...
Haruhi in 5th place.Why she doesn't place on 1st.
I love Haruhi the most but she got 5th place.
Ah and she under Yuki.Unforgivable
7. Shinguji Sakura
FOOK YEAH
I did NOT expect the nr1 but would certainly been my choice.
WHERE THE HELL IS ANYONE FROM BLEACH?!
I dont like nagato.... she should not even be on this list <_< I dont mind the others because some I dont know and have nothing against but really nagato? Haruhi is cool nagoto is not. Nagoto is a just a failure and Tenshi happens to be the successful one.
hmmm replace nagato with someone like nami.... they are going by popularity so she would be up there... I would personally nominate Ami Kawashima ... xD OMG that swimsuit episode at her retreat jesus . phew that was intense xD <_< runner ups would be Taiga and Mena Tepa.
i dont give a rats ass about all these characters
lacus and cagalli is still there? amazing...
Now this, is a list I can agree to.
where the fuck is rei
She from the 90s dumb Fuck
Blasphemy.... enuf said
SABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
No Hideyoshi?!?!?, BLASPHEMY!
cc 6 wtf saber last no fucking way
Where the fuck is Kallen Stadfeldt and Hinata Hyuga??? GRRRR! *rage rage*
Belldandy for the total win. She will always be my #1. Beautiful, great figure, smart, great cook, and can kick the ass of everyone on this list.
Cagalli Yula Athha is futt bugly
Cagalli ROCKS
Gundam Seed chars as the top 2?
What,were 90 percent of all voters Gundam-fanboys?
LOL, didn't notice that this Article was written by Leon and not Artefact, my bad..! (He seems to have corrected that..)
Still, needs a better picture of Saber IMHO. :)
HELL YEAH! There's no moe! It's enough for me, especially when most of my fav characters are up on that list!
Could not agree less.
Needs more Sukuran girls.
Newtype is on crack.
It sure isn't a new decade without a top ten list.
where the hell is Mio?, well at least senjougahara made it
that list sucks a lot like shit.
those list are always shitty.
Wish Saber had been higher and/or Rin was on the list. Don't much care for Gundam girls but yay C.C. and Haruhi (I know she's unpopular on this site but she's ok.)
CAGALLI at #1?!
She's not a bad character, but she's hardly anything special! This is why you can't rely on these polls to give a decent opinion.
At least it wasn't fucking Lunamaria...
Nice to see Hitagi make it in at the end there. But I'm kind of surprised Rei didn't sneak in again for appearing in the new Evangelion movies.
Also surpised to see Sakura there. She's hardly a memorable character after all.
The list is JUST! ALL HAIL THE LIST.....
Is what I should be saying.... but Cagalli??? On the top of the list??? Oh well.....
what???? Senjougahara Hitagi 9 place o_O haruhi 5 O_o, CC sixth place its obiously a bad count!!!!!!!!
you must be crazy for validate it!!!!
newtype is a LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you faggots forgot that this yet is culminated from the beginning of the decade, and incase you forgot SEED was extremely popular when it fored aired and before DESTINY Cagali was constantly in the top spot along with Kira, if you look at the current polls in Newtype Cagali is not on the list no more and Lacus is the only female character from SEED listed.
why no kallen or suou? or even orihime? where be da reds damnit!!
Damn horny otakus who watch Bakemonogatari just to fap to Senjou, why the fuck is she on the top 10 of the 'Decade'!? The most overhyped character ever.
That would be the Haruhi cast.
WHAT LUCY from elfen lied is not on the list , BLASPHEMY !! ok haven't seen half of the anime mentioned but there is no way in hell Saber is awesome , she as exiting as plastic light saber without batteries .
Wow finally someone that shares my view on Saber, never thought that would happen. Granted I don't know the Saber from the visual novel, the Saber from the anime is all I have to go by... and I remain unimpressed.
I am not pleased with this list.:<
Finally! a decent poll...stay OUT K-ON!.
I'm with you on that one.
Saber and Sheryl NUMBA ONEEE!!
NUMBA WANNN!!
*fixed*
f*** seed. b.s gundam knockoff with crappy art. give me a bad rating if you want. idc. every real gundam fan knows that seed is a disgrace of the franchise. all the u.c is better than it, wing gundam, g gundam and even 00 gundam is better than it. those girls shouldnt be up there.
seed's most/only greatest achievement is the girls, and this list is about female characters, not gundams, not story, but girls. as a real gundam fan, i say those 2 girls is 2 of the best gundam series girls there is... though ranked 1 and 2? are they trolling us?
uh-uh i disagree with you. those 2 seed girls do not look like that in anime. the illustrater tried so hard just to make them cute that he or she ended screwin up there faces. im mean seriously, would you put them up there if you had the choice of ANY anime girl? no way they beat mokoto from ghost in a shell.
also this list should have 1 one girl per anime. not 2 on a list of just ten. lame bias voters
ps, lacus look way better than the blonde chick
have to agree =3
where's my major kusanagi?
AMAGAD where is Rei?
And Konata!!! GJ! (>.<) b
i personally like karen more than CC, but meh, have to make do wif this list
I stare at disbelief at the #1 spot, but the list contains Sheryl Nome and Shinguji Sakura (probably due to the TV anime and/or the PS2 remake) so I'm happy
Surprised there's no Horo
NO YOKO? This fucking lies.
