Favorite Anime Characters Poll (website I made ^__^)
Favorite Anime Characters Poll (website I made ^__^)
Hey everybody, I decided to make a PHP website to allow people to vote for their favorite anime characters of all time.
You submit 5 characters (and where they come from, such as the anime series, manga, or anime movie), and you can submit them all at once, or in groups at any time until they add up to 5.
Please do not try to abuse the system too much by finding ways to have more than 5 votes, or ways of voting for the same person more than once.
Oh and as I mention on the site, there are numerous ways to spell names and series. I will manually go through the data periodically and sum up the varoius names into a different set of data, which I will display on the site every couple days or so. I will normalize all the names so that "Suzumiya Haruhi" will be the same as "Haruhi Suzumiya", or "Nodame" will be the same as "Noda Megumi". That's why it's important that you all put the series name. If somebody puts "Haruhi", there's no telling if that's the girl from Ouran, Suzumiya Haruhi, or Happiness!.

If you have any issues with the site, such as it not allowing you to enter a special character, send me a private message or email me (email is on the site).
Also, for the sake of being easy, I'm not allowing the input of Japanese characters on the site. Please use romanji, thanks.

Before people jump on me, I normalized the names before getting these results. That means if you put "Yukito Kunisaki", your vote will show up as "Kunisaki Yukito". For the sake of time, I didn't normalize every name in the data. I only cleaned up the ones that had multiple votes. It was pretty easy to do this by sorting the data by series then seeing which names were surname first, surname last, no surname at all, spelled wrong, etc.
If you see any errors in my data cleaning (such as my not seeing that one character was listed under a completely different series from another vote, even tho they're the same character), let me know and I'll fix it.
So far I've deleted 2 votes that I was pretty sure were the same people voting twice for the same character. They were both spelled wrong the exact same way, as well as being completely lowercase.
These are not the final poll results. I will keep the poll running for another few days at least, but don't wait too long to vote.

You did a great job on that -- I hope you get a lot of votes! I voted for:
Fruits Basket - Tooru Honda
Shoujo Kakumei Utena - Utena Tenjou
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu - Kyon (I can never quite remember his actual name LOL)
Yotsuba&! - Yotsuba (did the power of suggestion work? XD)
Inuyasha - Sesshoumaru
For the data clean-up, I assume you didn't care too much about the order of the first/last name as much as having them all be the same so they add together?

^__^ Yotsuba's one of my absolute favorite characters, tho I didn't vote for her . I limited myself to 5 votes, even tho I made the site hehe. I'm glad she's getting a decent number of votes, considering she's only in manga.chrono wrote: Yotsuba&! - Yotsuba (did the power of suggestion work? XD)
At first I was putting Surname first for most names, then I realized that doesnt work well with American type names, so I stopped bothering for the most part. I just make sure they're equal to over votes for the same char, so they'll count together.For the data clean-up, I assume you didn't care too much about the order of the first/last name as much as having them all be the same so they add together?

Hehehe. That manga is so awesome -- I actually like it better than Azumanga Daiou so far! I so hope it becomes animated :3
