Megami Magazine, well known for being the source of many of the finest ero posters available, has revealed its 2008 female character popularity ranking in its latest issue.
These results are taken from the February 2008 issue of Megami Magazine:
Notes:
- The Monthly Aggregate ranking is determined by the combined points accumulated from all the monthly rankings for 2008.
- The December Poll was a special poll held in December where votes were cast directly for favorite overall character.
2008 Overall Character Ranking (Monthly Aggregate)
1. Nanoha Takamachi (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS)
2. Fate T. Harlaown (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS)

The Nanoha girls continue their domination of the Megami popularity charts, while Clannad’s Nagisa-chan takes the number three spot.
It is surprising to see Konata beat Kagami…

9. Amu Hinamori (Shugo Chara!)
10. Index (Toaru Majutsu no Index)
Fujoshi Haruka’s 1# position is a huge surprise…
In case you’re wondering,the Megami editors themselves express surprise at the wildly differing results from the December Poll and the Monthly Aggregate.
The disparity can likely be explained by characters with shows airing in the second half of 2008 taking over the December poll, whereas the 2008 aggregate poll takes into account votes cast before the two most recent anime seasons were broadcast.

Charlotte is in Top 5 sexiest characters
IN AMERICA!
f♥♥k yes! Haruka is my goddess and she deserves that spot!
I fucking hate annoying bitches like shana,…this poll is s♥♥t! strong powerful normal voiced types are better. f♥♥k those flat bitches
Nagisa is MASSIVLY overated
Can’t STAND HER!
Ruined clannad and second season.
NAGISA=FAIL!
Louise is annoying. The lack of Yuuki Mikan in the Imouto list has left me in despair. Also, I didn’t expect D.C. II S.S. to be so popular. I mean, the Asakura sisters actually making into top 20 is rather good.
Tomoyo is over-rated. Nagisa = <3
Also wtf @ Hinamori Amu.
I would like to petition that Chizuru from shitty Kanokon should not be #1 in Smexy category.
No Nankyoku Sakura… PHAIL.
