AbsoluteZer0Nova Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 I pretty much expected Ike and Lucina, but I am pleasantly surprised by Lyn like sure I expected her to be high, but not in passing those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'm not surprised by Lucina or Ike, but Lyn is a shock. I never thought she was all that popular. Definitely not my personal choice for female either. She's a better pick than Lucina though, imo. I just wish that was RD Ike up there rather than PoR Ike. I love both Ikes, but RD Ike just got even more badass and sexy and he's simply my favorite design in the whole series. Peeps, plz help RD Ike to beat his younger self! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah I'm going to be voting for RD Ike too tomorrow as I go through Tellius characters now that I'm done with my Sacred Stones choices.

VincentASM Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Yup, I'm not surprised by Lucina or Ike, but Lyn being Number 1 wasn't something I thought I'd see. Speaking of which, I am interested to see how they handle characters that appear in multiple games. It's even weirder in Genealogy, since Finn appears twice there, in his younger and older forms. Would be funny if Number 4 was Radiant Dawn Ike or something XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gima Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Already stated my thoughts in the main thread, so stating this here: I like Lyn, a lot, but I didn't really expect to see her at the top? I could see what people were saying when they said she was bland, and didn't think that most people were going to vote for her. I've voted for her myself, but currently I'm just giving all of the more popular characters the boost... ...Thinking about this a bit more, I want Lyn to win. The counter-counterattack commences.

But yeah I'm going to be voting for RD Ike too tomorrow as I go through Tellius characters now that I'm done with my Sacred Stones choices. I...can't quite grasp exactly what you're saying here, but honestly, I think a lack of development is the only flaw RD Ike has. He still has an entertaining personality as well as an amazing design, imo. And I always figured female fans would generally be more into the muscles, at least out west. :P Though I also bet some fans vote against him because they think he's a spotlight hog when he really isn't. RD Ike gets too much unnecessary flack for this when it's really Yune that literally takes over Micaiah's spotlight, not Ike. Ike is just the partner in crime. Some people also still seem to think RD Ike looks like he's on steroids when there are way more serious offenders on that account, even in FE. Seriously, I've seen way bigger muscles before.

Jeheza Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Lyn at the top was a surprise for me too. Ike and Lucina not as much, though I could have been sure there'd be a Fates character in the top 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElementKasai Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'm not surprised for Ike, but I thought he would be over Lucina. As for Lyn, I was planning to vote her, but, wow, first place? I hope she is here to stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flee Fleet! Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Well that's amazing to know that Lyn was popular enough to get first place. And I thought Hector was more preferred! Not surprised about Ike or Lucina though, so eh. Rooting for Lyn to stay first. Unless Sigurd takes the position. Edited January 24, 2017 by Flee Fleet!

Altean Tactician Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'm not surprised by these three, but I do wish other characters that are more interesting were winning (Specifically the master chef himself or Elincia). Out of these three though my favorite definitely has to be PoR Ike because I feel he has much better characterization than Lyn and Lucina.

Book Bro Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 That is awesome! I'm giving votes to Lyn and Ike as well. Hopefully this means Lyn has good odds for placing high in the West as well. I didn't expect her to be so popular in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makuroh Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'm so glad the poll isn't being dominated by the 3DS era characters, but Lyn being number one is a shock, wasn't she #7 or something in the Rekka no Ken poll? No surprise at Lucina or PoR Ike, I heard that the japanese don't like RD Ike too much, calling him a gorilla in the Smash reveal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roflolxp54 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Pleasant surprise for me when I saw that Lyn's currently number 1! Been splitting my votes among Lyn, SD Caeda, PoR Elincia, and Eirika. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Yo, go Lyn. I voted for her, but like everyone else, didn't expect her to do this well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busterman64 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Not gonna lie, was kinda doing a happy dance seeing this earlier! Seeing Lyn and Ike on there made me so happy(Lucina too, but for different reasons)! It makes my vote for Lyn feel so special! This honestly makes me wonder who the top 10 characters are! ...Still crossing my fingers for Elincia(RD) to be high up there(Jill too...maybe Mia)! 58 minutes ago, UdoGudo said: I'm so glad the poll isn't being dominated by the 3DS era characters, but Lyn being number one is a shock, wasn't she #7 or something in the Rekka no Ken poll?

Seeing Lyn that high almost immediately made me EXTREMELY curious to see who the top 10 are! It's anyone's game at this point! Also, I was quite surprised how many people were shocked to see Ike so buff in his Smash reveal...guess the amount of people who played RD is small(...can't blame them all things considered...good game...so pricey...)

Thane Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 That's pretty neat, I hope we'll get to see the results for the Western polls soon as well. It makes me happy to see they're all from three different games, too (and that none of them is from Fates or is named Camilla). At the very least it looks like we'll get some varied calendar pictures! Let's get some other, older characters up there now as well and we'll have a healthy mix of old and new!

It's a popular trope , which makes sense in some stories and for some characters, but Ike pretty much just dumped his father's legacy, his friends and his family out of the blue in an epilogue, which never sat well with me.

Also apparently the number one spot for both male and female will get a special costume for the game and the rest of the top ten will be in a calendar wallpaper. I hope they don't give Lyn some battle panties or something for her costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
