A recent survey asking Japanese which anime character they would most like to try living with has yielded some rather surprising results.
The results:
1. Doraemon (Doraemon)
2. Korosuke (Kiteretsu Daihyakka)
3. Lum (Urusei Yatsura)
4. Keroro (Keroro Gunsou)
5. Hattori-kun (Ninja Hattori-kun)
6. Kenshin (Rurouni Kenshin)
7. Ojarumaru (Ojarumaru)
8. Ranma (Ranma 1/2)
9. Nyanko-sensei (Natsume’s Book of Friends)
10. Belldandy (Oh My Goddess)
Some might wonder at just who they asked in order to avoid getting answers like “Mio” or “Luffy”; it seems the ranking is restricted to “live-in” characters (although this still leaves open a few odd cases), characters who appear and for whatever reasons insist on living with the protagonist or similar
Other notables included To Love-Ru’s Lala at 12, Rozen Maiden’s Shinku at 14, and Kannagi’s Nagi-sama at 19. Understandably, nobody in their right mind would want to live with the likes of Haruhi.

i wouldn't want korosuke to live with me, he'll get more annoying by the week. now doraemon, i'd strip him off all his technological shit and then give him to some random family. I wouldn't want to live with someone who'd be correcting my errors in life 24/7.
If the idea is "friends with benefits" then that changes things a lot, but my understanding is this would be more like roommates. In that case, I can see the attraction of "You want it? Done!" Doraemon.
But I'd go for Kyoko from Maison Ikkoku, Belldandy, or Aoi in terms of who would be nice to have around the house. Mahoro is good, too, and since none of the others I mentioned would be very fond of smut either, that part of her personality isn't really an issue.
"Understandably, nobody in their right mind would want to live with the likes of Haruhi."
I loled at this
"Understandably, nobody in their right mind would want to live with the likes of Haruhi."
Well said.
If I were to choose an anime character for this poll, I'd go with Belldandy. She's the epitome of all naiveté beauties in the anime world.
Ranma but no Kasumi?
People prefer free nipples and topless daily service than good meals... :3
Nyanko-sensei!!!
Where is my Maria of HnG?
3 of them are from Fujio.F.Fujiwara. Not to mention than most of them are "Problem-solver" that made your life a paradise.
Kenshin,Fuck yes.
I won't mind a butler like Hayate...
So you want a Gundam for a butler?
Personally I'd prefer an outgoing, confident, and if possible, teasing girl, since those are the type of girls I like best, both in manga/anime/VN's, and real life. Examples would be Asa from SHUFFLE, Satsuki from Ichigo 100%, or Kyou from Clannad(tsundere is another good quality). Though there's always cute lolis aswell. Rika would be my favourite in that case. "Nipaah~!" ^^ My all-time favourite anime/manga/VN character and waifu interest though is Tohsaka Rin from Fate/stay night. Love you, Rin-chama.
My personal choice would be Nadia (Secret of Blue Water). But from that list, I'd choose Lum.
Belldandy FTW!
*barf*
Takahashi Rumiko scored a double hit on the top 10.
Belldandy, fuck yeah!
(Minami)Haruka nee-sama. Guaranteed choice. Getting rid of the sister(s) may be optional.
I would like to have Chiaki with me :3
I'll have her sitting on my lap everyday..
Live with Cirno. THE STRONGEST!
If I were to choose a Touhou Character I'd choose Nitori or Eirin as I'd have a lot of stuff in common with either.
Then again it's hard to beat Udongein's sex appeal.
I take Youmu, personally. Just look at her skills! She's just perfect as a wife!
Where the f*** is Orochimaru in that list!?
I totally agree with you.
He's such a babe.
Imagine what he does with that tongue <3
Ok, that is just creepy and kinda disgusting dudes.....Orochimaru!? A pale, evil, snickering, 50 year old snake freak with a sickingly long tongue, that just reattaches if cut in two(4TK Naruto fight)? Do...not...want!
Belldandy for the win
Seriously, that would be wonderful in so many ways.
ANG ANG ANG!
DORAEMON FTW
doramon------->GTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFO%@%#@!%$!#@%!@!@
Cheburashka FTW!
DORAEMON IS THE BEST. no doubt about it.
but wth with kenshin, you need him to slash yakuza who always bully you? o_O
I'm surprised Konata didn't make the top ten list as she would share a lot of common interests with most otaku.
Though if I were to choose to live with an anime character I'd choose Washu-chan from Tenchi lets face it she's the most useful character.
She really can do anything and has both a loli and a really hot milf form.
But then again she would be kinda dangerous as you could get experimented on.
Another much safer choice maybe Tsuruya from Haruhi.
Yuki Nagato also would be a good choice nice and quiet and can hack reality think of her as Washu without the craziness but unfortunately no cannon hot oppai form well she probably could still do it.
I Love You Taiga And Kaname Chidori-Sama They Would Be My First Choices. *Ahh Its Like Heaven*
so you like Louise and Chidori?
no he likes mudkips
where is Gu? wouldn't anyone like to live with Gu?
As a masochist, it's a toss up between Guu and Dokuro-chan.
Himemiya Chikane.... i don't care if she's a yuri... i'd love to live with her D;!
I like Himeko better though.
Luffy would eat all your food and break shit around your house. XD
I'd probably pick Konata, even if she doesn't want to have sex we could still be great friends and talk about anime all the time.
Konata would be great to have as a friend really....think I would have liked that just as much as having her as a girlfriend.
No haro ;_;
I would have to choose Pino. She doesn't need to eat, wouldn't take up a lot of space, and is expressly designed to be a 'companion'.
Weird little android girls are the best!
Kenshin <3
and oh I'd totally do Nyanko-sensei.
I wouldn't mind Ranma, as long as he remains in his girl form forever.
just standby alot of cold water pails.
Or use Obaba's cat tongue curse or whatever it's called..
LUM <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want Manaka...
Rin Tosaka and Kyon kun denwa
Of course no one in their right mind would want to live with the likes of Haruhi, thats why so many people want it, including myself.
I could see Lum... If she was as attached to me as Ataru.
(I'd definitely take advantage of what he seems to actively refuse.)
