Seiyuu fans provide a ranking of their favourite female seiyuu of 2010, courtesy of Voice Newtype.
The results are certain to delight Mugi-fans, whilst leaving lifeliners in dire straits…
The ranking:
1. Minako Kotobuki (Tsumugi)
2. Nana Mizuki (Fate Testarossa)
3. Yukari Tamura (Nanoha)
4. Aki Toyosaki (Yui)
5. Kana Hanazawa (Tenshi)
6. Yui Horie (Miharu Takeshita)
7. Haruka Tomatsu (Lala)
8. Marina Inoue (Kamenin)
9. Minori Chihara (Nagato)
10. Aya Hirano (Katja)
Even the remaining lifeliners could not save Hirano, it seems. More pressingly, Rie Kugimiya appears to have fallen from grace this year…

Shame about Kugimiya Rie. Glad Hanazawa Kana and Horie Yui on there, though, they're two of my personal favorites.
Kana Hanazawa's only 5...?
Rie Kugimiya didn't even manage 10th?
WHY
Kugyu hardly had that much roles in 2010, unfortunately. The only I can remember is Sanada of Hyakka Ryouran..
Please correct me if I'm wrong..
I'm more surprised that Taketatsu Ayana's not there.
she was in okami, index, inazuma, dance in the vampire, and ladies vs butlers...
but all of them were supporting roles.
its not like aki toyosaki got picked cuz of her role in mitsudomoe.
but rie should at least be 7th.
in contrast at the start of the year she was first.
how dare you forgot about happy from fairy tale!
Kugimiya Rei will be on the next one, as the new season of SnS should be starting in a few months.
Wow go Minako! But really, I agree with MaidNiac. It's absolutely surprising that Taketatsu Ayana is not on this list. I wonder if the super tsundere characters she's playing isnt working well with some fans or something. Though that doesnt make much sense seeing as Kugimiya Rie was all about the tsundere lolis. Hm. Thoughts?
Sakamoto Maaya's not there...?
fantasic taste you have there but i'm not surprised she's absent
Another Sakamoto's fanboy spotted...
She didn't deserve anything...
Quite appalling.
Flawless victory by Minako Kotobuki. :3
Tsumugi's takuan is just so irresistible.
Her dominatrix Senhime role must have had an effect.
Kotobuki Minako talking down people <3
Indeed, her voice roles can be really surprising.
Mugi-chan, Yako (Chu-bra!), Mitsuko (Railgun), Sen-sama (Hyakka Ryouran), and the kuudere Kaho from Yokuwakaru Gendaimahou.
Hell, she's damn cute as well :3
I propose an anime about the K-ON! seiyuu, using that art, with live action OP and ED. <.<
Where's the spot for Itou Shizuka?
No love for Sawashiro Miyuki...
I'm with you on this one. it's awesome that kotobuki minako made #1 but sawashiro miyuki is one of my all-time favorites...
Where's Kugirie? :(
There is no Rie Kugimiya?
None of the shows that Kugimiya worked on in 2010 were very popular, so it makes sense that she's not on the list. It's not really an indication of a lack of popularity or anything; she just isn't on people's minds. As soon as the next Shana or something comes out, she'll be right back on top.
Sorry to be pedantic: But Fullmetal Alchemist is hardly not popular.
Then again, this seiyuu ranking is based largely on how moe they can make their characters, and people don't find a walking piece of metallic armour moe. :)
So otherwise, you're absolutely spot on with the observation.
Hey HEY HEY! What the hell?! Kugimiya-sama should be LEADING that chart!
I demand a recount!
Sad there is no Yoko Hikasa
Yea, but she's not exactly active this season.
But she will be the main in Infinite Stratos!!! ^^
She's really active throughout the whole 2010, actually.
@Anon13:51,She voiced as Katja in Seikon no Qwaser
I guess Occult and Seitokai didnt appeal that much. I dont know why Aya is there.
HELL YEA I FOROGT! I did some research and she is gonna be active in the winter season =]
I mostly agree with the seiyuu listed but in a different order. With Aki being #1, Hanazawa Kana #2, Haruka Tomatsu #3, Minako #4, and Marina #5.
You have a good taste, but Kotobuki in first is a dream made real. S2
Tsumugi?....
Is this because of the fujoshi fangirl backlash we heard about? lol
I'm a huge Tsumugi fan so whatever.
I don't get that #1. Kana Hanazawa should be #1 on shear number of roles - she's in like very anime this fall it seems.
Yeah, isn't it sad that Ayahi... has no love unlike her Sphere mates.
And damn, why it has to be Minako? She doesn't have any breakout roles other than Mugi.
The tsundere queen didn't have much significant roles this year huh?
Horie Yui was always one of my faves, but she ain't 2010~ Hanazawa Kana should be top imho. Voicing Kuroneko and Tenshi? THAT is WIN.
I'm happy that Minori has a spot for voicing Disappearance Nagato.
I'm surprised Ayana Taketatsu isn't there.
And Aya Hirano is. :/ Seems people don't hate her as much as we think yet.
No, Haruka Tomatsu should be number 1,, Kana Hanazawa number 2
I'll add that the Sphere girls dominate this list: Minako, Aki, Haruka, but no Ayahi Takagaki.
I wonder if this has something to do with a fujoshi wanting Tsumugi to be on top. Nonetheless, congrats Mugi's cute seiyuu!
SUCK IT Otakus!!!! MY GIRL!! #1 for 2010!! KOTOBUKI Crushes ALL the "K-On!" girls!
Eat It! all you Yui fans! When it comes to someone with a PULSE and Nothing to do with 2-D charm (which is hand-made a how many dudes?) and everything to do with providing a VOICE, personal, and Soul to a character....Minako is Treasured above all!
shame Ayana & Yoko Hikasa weren't listed but oh well.
It's ALL about MUGI-Chan!!!!
if it's just for k-on, isn't mugi's voice the most plain?
I would give it to aki-chan for putting the fun into yui-even while singing.
I still laugh when listening to her singing voice. and it's not natural, when she's singing as herself she's perfectly serious and normal (and talented)
and I think aki-chan is more attractive, but only a bit (minako is really hot)
Kotobuki Minako is really really cute, I'm surprised taketatsu ayano (who voiced azusa and kirino) didn't make the list.
Yeah
You tell 'em.
:I.
Yeah! Mugi first!
I just died for a moment due to extreme amusement seeing Kotobuki Minako as number 1, that girl actually can do a lot type of voice for different kind of characters. Hanazawa should be higher than just no.5, if not No.1, btw.
What!?! HOW can Nana be the second place she suppose to be the first. And to my surprise aya is still in the list with all the thing that happen in this year.
I wonder where is Horie yui and Kugimiya rie ???
why no Aya Endo? she's been receiving roles non-stop.
and also no Miyuki Sawashiro?
i agree with Kana Hanazawa and Aki Toyosaki :D
