“Main Heroines & Sub-Heroines – Which is Best?”

2ch is mulling over yet another anime classification system – this time presenting positing that anime heroines can be divided in “main heroine” and “sub-heroine” groups and pondering which is best.
Group C is also offered:
In case it is still not clear:
Group A – Main Heroines
Group B – Sub-Heroines
Group C – Secondary Sub-Heroines
Of Group A it is noted that “the psychotic main heroines in Group A are unlikely to become most popular and tend to breed lots of haters” – certainly a noted trend amongst the characters selected.
However, another observer wryly notes that “anime fans tend to be masochists so that must be why A is so popular.”
Additional inclusions fitting the pattern are also suggested:
A: Mikoto, Yui, Konata, Reimu
B: Kuroko, Mio, Kagami, Sanae
C: Saten, Ritsu, Tsukasa, Marisa
Predictably, most anime fans seem to be succumbing to the wiles of Group B…

whatever...its 2ch we are talking about...
Misses
Group D - Supporting character
Group E - All of the above
I'm for group E.
I second the group E choice!
Wouldn't Mikuru and Takagi Saya be in group C? And why is Sanae B instead of Marisa?
They've got it all wrong..
Srsly, Marisa is B if not A.
No, the shrine maidens get the priority.
Marisa is in the same group as Ritsu, isn't it fitting?
I rarely pay much attention to main heroines anyways, back heroines usually hold the most appealing side of the stories and personalities.
Like Saeko... ohh Saeko *¬*
I vote B
Shouldnt Misaka Mikoto be both A and B
Since shes B in Index and A in Railgun
True, Crim. Or Kuroko, she's both A and D
A in Railgun, D in Index.
I'm for E - All of the above since even characters appearing only once can be interesting.
Group C for me, Who can resist Marikawa-sensei?
She's the DEFINITION of a blonde bombshell.
Even the characters with just few cameos will earn a bunch of doujins at comiket so everyone can enjoy, nobody is excluded. ^^
I´m somewhat slow getting things right after 6 beer so i´m also for E because now i can see the logic behind it.
Group A for *swoon* Taigaaaaa...
Tsunderes hit my weak spot...
Group E makes the other groups redundant because pretty much everyone would pick this one.
That's the idea megidola, since the other groups don't make much sense if at all.
I think Group A is the only group that makes any sense, you could swap any characters between B and C and nobody would notice.
Sure, but I doubt anyone likes group A, B or C more than the others in general.
I like members from all groups, but don't prefer one. I also dislike members from all groups.
Screen time has absolutely nothing to do with it.
Shouldn't Yuri and Tenshi be switched around? Sure Yuri was important, but Tenshi spends way more time with Otonashi than Yuri does, and the ending, well... Not to mention that Otonashi and Kanade (Tenshi), as the leads, have similarly themed names.
Can't I just like all of them??
I second this.
Can someone please put the Banhammer to Negrodamus and tell him to FLY AWAY NOW, FLY AWAY NOW, FLY AWAY!!!
Isn't Marisa a main character?
Well, it's the secondary main character, Marisa should be in B and Sanae in C, but I'm with Sanae anyway wD
But Sanae is 2P miko, thus, B. :D
Anyways B and below for me. Yayifications!
Inami > all other Working!! girls
Taiga > all other Toradora! girls
Mikoto > all other Index & Railgun girls
Konata > all other Lucky Star girls
In other cases i prefer Group B heroines.
Marisa is definitively B in the official games and usually A in doujin games, whoever says the shrine maidens have priority is just ⑨
Yes ill take those from group A, give me some from group B as well, group C me like what the heck ill take them all. Harem.
All playable Touhou characters definitely belong to group A. That means Reimu, Marisa, Sakuya, Alice, Youmu, Patchy, Meiling, Aya, Sanae, Meiling and Cirno.
Sanae isn't even as remotely popular as Marisa.
So she should be in C and Marisa in B.
And I don't know about that group A not being as popular as B and beyond.
Sure, Mio always ranks a bit higher than Yui, but all the other three: Reimu, Konato, Mikoto are goddesses in the otaku world.
Haters are usually just non-otaku-trolls whose opinion doesn't matter anyway.
Why not Group F - The unrelated Charas( without a face or a name) in the still images.
No face, no name, no personality -> no interest
But that isn´t unfair to them?
Life is harsh and unfair.
Indeed
This whole comment block is just made of WIN!
@ Taniguchi
Indeed...
"There aren't any hints for a girl without a personality! In fact, she'd never be a major character in the first place! Girls like her show up in the background behind heroines, or at best, next to the heroines as anonymous friends!"

So I'm a stolid B
Mostly B and C here as well
i don`t mind choosing group E as well.I always like all of the characters in an anime anyway ^^
Kuroko... It's gotta be B!
Nope, she's A!

That would be AA. ^_^
No complaints here. :)
If there is a cup size below A than she would fit in.

now that we learnd the lyrics a second time, u have 2 sprinkle cheese on the pizza.
then we pop it into the microwave for 1 minutes and 46 secnods. this will give u enough time 2 ham out to "forgot about pizza" by medical doctorate dre.
congrats, the pitza is done. u have successfully made a pizza, i hpe u learned a lot. This was Barefoot Contessa.
With luck your idiocy will cause a restriction on post length in the near future, which will help with the recent obnoxious Anonymous spammer. Good job.
Feed one and they all come.
That is a great idea. Artefact, please cut post size to a reasonable level. The amount of trolling is getting annoying.
Yes, very annoying indeed...
WTF?!?!?!?! WHY THE FUCK IS MARISA A FUCKING SECONDARY SUB HEROINE?! WTF IS THHS SHIT?!?!
U MAD?

Where's my Alice ?
I like all 3 types and honestly, you can't really have a main character without sub characters and sub characters without main characters.
Considering I root for the underdogs though, I'd rather root for Group C types.
If Group A = Protagonists, Group B = Antagonists/Friends, then I must say Group C = The zany/crazy/painfully normal types. It's always the sub-sub characters who are more liberal in how they may be approached as characters.
