Tom Tens Day 91: Anime/Manga characters

I fully expect to have to re-run this poll for stuff I forgot! Also polls like this are what happens when some localizers flip names and others don't >_> Can Kenshin wade through the waifu brigade on a path to a third slightly different spot in the grand finals?

HM include: Half of Trigger's characters, Shizuo, Renge, Gon, several folks from Ranma....

Welcome to the Tom 10 project, where I do a top 10, and you vote on your favorite! Ground rules:
-No stuffing or other jerkiness
-Polls last at least 24 hours, and will be started and closed at my convenience.
-Nominations are welcomed, but I will veto anything I don't know well or that somehow doesn't fit with my other ideas. Or if I just don't feel like if for whatever reason.
-Feel free to gripe about snubs, but don't expect me to change the poll or results unless it's something I legit forgot.
-These are my top 10's, and they're roughly in order on the poll. I won't vote, but I will break ties.
-Help bump please?
-This is not a super serious project and I don't want drama.

I'll probably be the only Master Asia vote

Yang's birthday is the day after yours. C'mon now.

How come sometimes you choose Given before family name and vice versa

Consistency son!

I'll join ya barrel, although i would have rather voted for some more amusing characters if they were around like Xelloss Metallium, maybe Frederica from Coffin Princess Chaika, maybe Jibril or Nagisa even. Mind you if Manhwas were open, that'd open up the floodgates for everything.

Kenshin I guess, though he's like my fifth favorite character from the series (Yahiko/Aoshi/Enishi/Soujirou all easily above him)

Digimon and Fate are excluded because they were already covered

hasn't Kenshin been in like thirty of these already

There wasn't a Kenshin poll though!

but yes the manga is already in the finals as well as "Kenshin of Saber class" so I am gonna laugh when Kenshin himself also gets in and they all LFF each other

Kenshin over Saitou/Aoshi "oh"

the grumpy antiheroes are towards the bottom of my Kenshin list actually

and the top of wifebolo's
