Yahoo!’s ranking of the top 10 otaku wives for 2009 provides something of an upset, with the top spot easily seized by an unexpected newcomer…
The ranking, with votes and pretty pictures:
1. Mari Makinami Illustrious (Evangelion – 11,348)
2. Sawako Kuronuma (Kimi-ni Todoke – 9,777)
3. Mio Akiyama (K-ON! – 4,664)
4. Hinagiku Katsura (Hayate – 4,231)
5. Yui Hirasawa (K-ON! – 3,933)
6. Megurine Luka (3,392 – Vocaloid)
7. Taiga Aisaka (Toradora – 3,128)
8. Nodoka Haramura (Saki – 1,990)
K-ON!’s popularity already seems to be slipping…

LOL, Hitagi as wife? As hot as she is, this thought terrifies me. Maybe it's the staple staple image from the Bakemonogatari gallery we had...
senjougahara last??? and hanekawa tsubasa???, and ami??, and aresta and plug of fight ippatsu???, etc...
Woooooo~ for Sawako :DDD
what can i say but YES!!!
i would definitely put Kuronuma Sawako on top of the list, she is really different than other
Indeed because she is the only normal character closest to reality?
Totally agree.
<3 Biribiri
I'm surprised that Mio didn't come in first.
Needs moar Touhou and Ryougi Shiki.
вы пидоры
Ore wa harem ending wo mezasu!!!!
Setokaicho Hina-chan all the way!
This is a nice list :o
Though it could be a little better...
As always, polls always have these sorts of odds... '-'
mai waifu only came in 5th. :(
BLACKSTOCKINGS4LYFE
Luka! Yes! Come one, girl, just a few more spots and you'd knock that tiny handed freak Mio out of the top 3's running!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA... MEGURINE LUKA IS UP THERE, THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS BWAHAHAHAHAHHA... THE REST CAN GO DIE OR SOMETHING FOR ALL I CARE BWAHAHAHAHAHA...
Luka is probably one of the "better" candidates on that list consider her onee-chan status, can sing (beautifully), and subject to your choukyou.
otherwise i see the chart being no different from a simple moe contest
BULLSHIT!- clearly someone with way too much time on their hands rigged it for Mari! Other than that the list looks normal. Shifts like this aren't natural - even for Otakus.
Didn't someone from 4-chan explain how he rigged the TIME Magazine online poll (for something) to make 4 Chan's creator the winner.
No Nagato? Bullshit.
aw no Kobato? I am disappoint
I understand your pain, but until she regains some common sense...
Hitagi's on the list. She's my new fave because she keeps her expressions to a few (unexpected) bursts. Also, seeing what she can hide under the skirt is amusing.
Isn't it sad, Mio?
sawako! ~ <3 HHNNNNNNNNNNGGG
Mio should have been the last...
Mariiii~~~~ <3
wait, Megurine Luka but no Hatsune Miku!? not even in the top 10!!?
oh wait, its about 2009 only. silly me (- -;)
Senjougahara came in last? (surprised I am)
I came in Senjougahara last? Am I surprised?
Hell yeah Sawako :3
How can everyone forget Belldandy????
remove the top 2 and the list is perfect
remove you and the world would be perfect
Some people didn't quite understood that "2009" isn't "ALL_TIMER"
>K-On slutty Mio
>K-On retarded Yui
>Taiga
>Biribiri-kun
lol underaged b& popularity contest doesn´t count.
#2: Who? From what?
Number 7 is a shota with a wig =_=U.
Hitagi Senjougahara :3
Sawako should be #1
her innocent look. beautiful smile and caring personality makes her my #1 :D
Kimi ni todoke FTW :)
Nodoka Miyazaki please
ya please put nodoka next time
mizore shirayuki should be in there
Hitagi Banzai~~~ =3
For this list Hitagi would be no.1. However, as a wife she would be quite stressful. I can't shake the feeling you'd have to sleep wearing body armour if shes pissed. So what is required is an equally strong, intelligent but much more stable person. Which is why Tsubasa is ideal.
I choose Senjougahara. My justification is not necessary about the looks, but more about her intelligence. Her sharp tongue and quick wit would get your brain spinning around, thinking how to rebut her arguments...
Plus, she's independent and capable to protect herself with ALMOST anything (of course her speciality is stapler...)
anyway, what've i been ranting about? It's a good list and nice to see some K-On faces and Taiga there. it's quite objective really
well Sawako is cute and all but it's not so awesome to be with a girl that quite its looks nice but you will get bored
its just like my ex its even hard for her to make their own decisions so i will go for mio type cute sexy and levely she is just awesome
Megurine Luka <3
Hinagiku
Sawako
Nodochii~
Maki hitting no.1, errr rather pick her as a gf but with no future wife in mind :P
Sadako...I mean Sawako, FTW, she's wife material :) Voice actor from School Rumble's Yakumo makes a ++
Well feel sorry for Yui & Mio who are also my fav, Aki-chan!
Looks like Luka is getting more spotlight this year...yum yum Takochan Special
Wow, an unexpected top two. I didn't even know that Mari was that popular let alone Sawako. Guess plenty of guys read/watch shoujo manga now days.
Sawako~ <3
Please someone tell me HOW can Yui be a good wife?
If you don't agree, enjoy your cute wife who spends all day sleeping and doesn't know how to cook.
Because she never gets pissed off or depressed, and I don't care about her lack off cooking skills. Because, after Yui gets done eating the dinner I cooked for her I get to peal of those tights and enjoy my dinner.
Yui makes you happy by existing, that's possibly why she got votes.
