A ranking of the top idols of 2010 presents some interesting choices, with the number 3 position being nabbed by a cheeky figure skater and Aya Hirano the top ranked seiyuu at 12.
The top 10 most influential idols, of 150 idols ranked in total:
1. Erika Toda (actress)

2. Maki Horikita (actress)

3. Mao Asada (figure skater)

4. Nozomi Sasaki (model/idol)

5. Atsuko Maeda (idol/actress)

6. Yui Aragaki (actress/singer)

7. Aya Ueto (actress/singer)

8. Haruka Ayase (actress/singer)

9. Saki Aibu (actress/idol)

10. Keiko Kitagawa (actress)






And Aya Hirano? She places 12th, the top ranking seiyuu – a good enough showing to appease otaku fans, though doubtless many will be outraged to see that Shokotan placed 80th, being humiliatingly beaten even by nasal idol Becky at 47.
I love that picture of Horikita Maki. First one I've seen of her in a swimsuit:3
Seconded. She's definitely unique and absolutely gorgeous. Though i didn't know the most of those idols until know, some of them are hot!
I still miss shoko-tan and hoshino aki...and I'm wondering if any of them got facial surgery...oh, wait, that's (sadly) more common in Korea, isn't it?
What the fuck? No Aki Hoshino or Hara Mikie? I am not pleased...
Aki Hoshino is on number 48, as it says in the article.
7
Delicious DFC :3
Where's Irie Saaya?
#4, #8 & #10 my favorites by far.
We need more of number 8's bikinis in America's beaches
Only on women that can pull it off. America has a lot of overweight women who would try it (whether it looked disgusting or not).
To the South Korean
check her uniform.

Mizuki Nana in 50th!?
Aya Ueto is gorgeous.
Aya Ueto FTW. I have her 2009 calendar, can't stop looking to it. wish she was MAI WAIFU.
Kou Shibasaki 36th... guess it's ok, since a lot of wonderful girls weren't even listed...
So 3D Misa > 2D Misa?
and aya hirano?
yui arafaki >>> all actress & Idol >>> aya hirano >>> all Voice actress
Keiko Kitagawa <33 Especially from Buzzer beat.. <3
And Horikita Maki <3 My favourites!
and Mizuki Nana is 50th... should be much higher then wherever Hirano Aya is placed....
well, this is idol ranking, not seiyuu ranking
Bah, Mizuki Nana >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Aya hirano in all aspects.
So where is Agnes Chan?
happy to see acchan made it to the top 10. I also see zorak somewhere in those scans
unforunately, Tsunde queen Tanaka Reina is nowhere to be seen, as is moe cutie Suzuki Airi. None of those two being any of my own favorites but eh, they are pretty popular.
I also thought some ex H!P girls such as Tsuji Nonozomi would've made it.
Aya Ueto is Azumi the ninja girl there are 2 movies in it, Wish it was a Pinku movie.
Hmmm like this but I am surprised not to see Mikie Hara there as she has been absolutely huge and way more influential than even the very best - Nozomi.
im chinese, fuck you japan!!! "_"
I thought Chinese ppl are cool.
These women are lovely, of course... but you know the ones that can sing really do it for me the most.
Boring 3d list--- hmm but actually number 8 is hot...
All hail Kaho!!!
I Like Haruka-san And Hirono-san
Nozomi Sasaki, Atsuko Maeda wow :)
By Nasal Idol becky are they referring to that stupid annoying british girl called Rebecca Flint? She has a big nose
this is bullshit where is miku hatsune this is baised against 2d idols.
Okay, influential. Soooo, what exactly have they influenced? Besides men's emotions/reactions/crotches.
Number 5 Atsuko Maeda is actually a lot cuter in some of the other pics that i've seen her in, although bikini wise she isn't that great, but on the other areas she's quite the looker.
meh....Maeda isn't even the hottest girl in AKB48....I prefer Shinoda Mariko or Watanabe Mayu. And Maeda's acting in Majisuka Gakuen was the worst of them all despite having the lead role.
What about Mai Oshima (graduated) or Kayo Noro? Loli fans, do you know Erena Ono or Minami Minegishi?
Minegishi Fuck yea~!!
Though, I'm more into.. Mayu.
Oh Lol. the top 3 are exactly my favorites. Erika Toda is hawt, like when she played the role of Amane Misa. Horikita Maki her appeal really is mesmerizing.
As for Mao, she is definitely my type of girl. I want her to be my gf.Lol
where's Maria Ozawa?
probably doing some uncensored or BDSM porn...
Strange Yuko Ogura or Mari Yaguchi aren`t mentioned, among many other well known girls.
Don`t take these lists too seriously, this is clearly partial and only reflects some certain person`s taste, or lack of knowledge.
both yuko and mari are not as popular anymore, that is all
This is not a popularity list (or at least it is not labeled as such). Mari and Yuko as idols or former idols are far more influential than anyone on this list. That they are not listed on here is pure ageism that our Japanese friends excel at like no other country.
#10 is Sailormars. Win. XD
we need moar idols like saaya irie, anna oonishi and asuka izumi!
what???
no idols like saaya irie and no t-back queens such as anna oonishi and asuka izumi?
uh.. number three isn't even a picture of asada mao. that's the picture of yu-na kim.
I think No.8 has the biggest bust of all the ones in the top 10. :3
#3 is Kim Yu-Na! LOL (I love her anyway XD)
haha unfort yuna kim is not one of the top 3 idols in japan. imo she looks at least 50x better than mao and her voice is nice too.
I wanna watch the jdramas these girls starred in. They look absolutely gorgeous.
Watch 'Sekai no Chuushin de Ai wo Sakebu'
Ayase Haruka is in it and it's a great drama.
You can thank me later. ;)
I agree! - where can I find a site that subs J-Dramas.
I agree with this list. I LOVE Erika Toda! I sooo need to jam her. Plus, I'm diggin' #3 & #6 and #10. I might just spank one out to #8 right now (Haruka Ayase). America needs more bikini's like this.
hahaha wow....#3 is kim yuna.....not mao asada...
this list is biased, why is Haruka Ayase so low on the list? And why isn't Rina Akiyama on this??!
I guess I'll have to agree with #1...I was never into asian girls until I saw Erika Toda in Death Note :)
Yui aragaki is so pretty
Isn't 3 Kim Yuna? Lol I don't know why Mao Asada is #3 but Kim Yuna is awesome =).
Misa #1 woo!!
4 & 10 are hot
nozomi sasaki >>> all
Keiko made the Top 10, awesome!
Embarrassed to admit I'm only familiar with a handful of the Top 10, though.
Also, as others have pointed out, there appears to have been a mix-up, and the picture of Mao Asada is instead one of Yu-Na Kim:

I agree 8 is the only one that stands out as being anything tit- I mean spectacular, unlike most of these girls who look rather plain and dull.
You say plain like it's a bad thing. There's a charm in not being overly dolled up and airbags attached to the chest all the time. Variety is the spice of life.
You realise plain by definition means a lack of the variety, right?
Either way I don't think they're plain, but whatever.
Anon 09:35 I agree, but real boobs of bigger size have their charm too. Fake tits are not that common in Japan.
Woot! Horikita Maki FTW
FTW x3
Ftw x2
Thought Ayu would be in it :<
WTF @5. Reminds me of my friend's mom, and that's not a good thing.
THIS SHIT IS A HOAX where the hell is Ai Shinozaki!
word half of these idols are plain
I've been thinking lately.. uh..
are you gay?
Fail-troll is fail
Pointing out troll on fail-troll on wrong comment is fail-troll.
Pointing out fail-troll on wrong comment is troll!
No comment.
"No comment." comment is fail.
pointing out fail-troll on wrong comment is fail ><;;
Hey, Becky has taught the world well. HARDEN. Now say it again. HARDEN.
Penis uses harden.
It's very effective!
(The typo is intentional)
Becky? Darlene's sister and Roseanne's daughter?
Becky? That one forcing Hatsune Miku to sing with her?
I test you folks! So where is HARDEN from, and why do people attribute it to Becky? I suppose it's fine if you've only read about it. Hint: "Monkey" is also used.
Who is Becky?? Not Becky Miamoto? (Pani Poni Dash).
Lol harden. I doubt typical kids spreading on this site would get the reference though. What's mentioned is her related work with Nintendo. It amuses me that people will actually rate things down just because they're clueless.
Becky? The mail client turned into an idol? ^_^
^lol'd.
Your friend's mom is a MILF, IMHO...
Your mom is a MYLF
Doesn't look very Japanese I'll give you that. Perhaps half Japanese?
fcx2 boy you have a lot to learn about how Japanese girls look.
It maybe is disturbing that they can look so good?
She's 100% Japanese. She's the front girl of AKB48, the most successful female music act in Japan for nearly a decade.
morning musume music sucks harder hehehehe
AKB48 music sucks. But I really do hope the AKB48 girls know how to "suck" bwehehehe
AKB48 music sucks. But I hope the AKB48 gilrs know how to "suck" oooh yeah baby
not anymore. LOL MWAHAHAHA
AKB48 was founded in 2004, and began to really make appearances in 2006. They maybe are the most successful girl group just now, but since 2000 that title still goes to - Morning Musume!
Thanks for the info!
So, what's your friend's mom number again? :P
