By the way, the characters ranked 26th and below announced by the "Attack on Titan" staff were, in order of number of votes, Eren Kruger, Oruo, Gelgar, Dalis, Nifa, Puré, Frieda, Floch, Eld, Ian, Udo, the Female Titan, Grisha, Daz, Nile, Falco, Marcel, and Rico.
Commander Erwin takes 1st place!!
Until the second round, Captain Levi had held 1st place. However, it was not until the third round that Commander Erwin took 1st place.
His achievements and his final death in the line of duty had led to a lot of support.
The results also show that the Scout Regiment executives received a lot of votes!
It makes sense, considering how well he did.
Eren and Jean ranked 4th and 5th, respectively.
Marco ranked 10th
The one who attracted the most attention was Marco, who came in 10th.
Marco is Jean's best friend Marco Bott, who died during his training days. In a sense, he was the key person who inspired Jean to join the Scout Regiment.
Marco's death was discovered when Jean discovered his body, but no one saw his final moments.
However, in 2017, in episode 77, the cause of Marco's death was revealed. His death is considered one of the most tragic in Attack on Titan, even though many characters have died in the series.
If you read the original work, you'll find out the details, but he was betrayed by his comrades, unable to fight, and quietly allowed to be preyed on by himself.
Marco was already popular because he was the one who supported Jean, but this incident caused him to suddenly gain attention.
Pay attention to the supporting characters too!
Attack on Titan features a lot of characters.
When it comes to popularity polls, characters who appear relatively infrequently also get the spotlight. Votes also went to supporting characters, such as Petra, Moblit, Oruo, Rio, and others. Also ranked were Mike, a senior executive killed by the Beast Titan, whose mystery has yet to be revealed, and Nanaba, whose last words were original to the anime. It was surprising to see that the Female Titan also received votes. Incidentally, Annie was ranked 11th.
Popularity Poll [Summary]
That's it for the results of the Attack on Titan popularity poll!
Each character has so much appeal that it's hard to narrow it down to just one.
The popular characters change depending on the story at the time, and the results are different each time, so it's always fun.
We're looking forward to the next event!
