(bumped 9/15) The fiends!! Chiyo-chan partisans are stuffing the poll! vote for Sugar and reclaim the title!
(bumped 4/22) If you don’t vote for Sugar, you’re a commie. Got that?
VOTE FOR
SUGAR
come on, you bolsheviks! get your rear in gear! You can vote once a day, you know!
I need a bumper sticker: “Don’t blame me, I voted for Sugar”
Chiyo-chan is ahead? A scandal! Voter fraud, I tell you!
I actually considered creating one on Cafepress. If I made one, would you buy it?
Actually, I want to make one that says, “Waffo!”
How on earth can our precious Sugar be losing to a penguin-wannabe?!?
[insert hanging chad joke here]
It’s just isn’t fair. Have these people SEEN punk sugar? With the paperclip earring? Or a shot of her doing SMOOCHIE!
It’s an injustice, I tell you.
I voted for Sugar. If we were in Chicago, we could get a whole bunch of dead people to vote for it too. 🙂
I’ve yet to see any of those animé, but the pictures make it obvious that Sugar is way ahead in cuteness. And I would send you a flower as an invitation if could find an e-mail address, but the URL will have to do: http://www.orisinal.com
I’ve been voting for Sugar every day since I discovered the poll–three or four times.
Chiyo-chan has a reputation for extreme cuteness because the other characters in AD acted like she’s cute. Fans of the show have accordingly picked up her cuteness as a banner–if you know to squee! over Penguin-Girl, you’re in the club.
I don’t remember Sugar’s cuteness ever being made a point of…heck, most of the other characters couldn’t even see her, and as far as Saga was concerned, Sugar was as much a nuisance as anything. So the show’s creators had to go overboard showing us how cute she was.
Binchou-tan is a close second, but her reserved demeanor and dire circumstances more than take the edge off.
now thats an intriguing point. Is kawaii-ness an intrinsic property or a reflection of the environment?
