Unsurprisingly, the popular Marin Kitagawa from My Dress-Up Darling, who seemed to be the talk of the season, takes the top by a large gap. Two other characters from the show, Shinju and Sajuna (Juju) also make it into the top 10. The beautiful secretary Ninym Ralei from The Genius Prince’s Guide to Raising a Nation Out of Debt comes in second as the runner-up, and the precious Takagi from Teasing Master Takagi-san Season 3 places third; both are voiced by Rie Takahashi!
