The lovable donut-munching loli vampire, Shinobu, makes it to #1 as the most popular character in the Monogatari series. She is actually divided into two characters, her usual loli self, and her more powerful and more mature original self, Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade who comes in at #13 in the rankings. If she just came in as one character, it would be very possible that she would have won via a landslide.
Meanwhile, Hitagi comes in at a close second place. Let’s just say that her yandere self-professed tsundere nature may have given her such a high ranking, or maybe it’s the fact that she is actually Koyomi’s girlfriend. #3 ranked Mayoi may have induced some tears, but this loli ghost takes the #3 spot while Tsubasa Hanekawa, who like Shinobu is divided into two characters (the other being #11 ranked Black Hanekawa), takes #4.
Kaiki rounds out the top 5 with his heroics. Come on, he basically did “The Dark Knight” by saving Hitagi and Koyomi while still being branded as the villain. Arararararararararararararagi himself meanwhile takes the #6 spot while the Yandere Snake Goddess Nadeko takes #7 with her surprising nature.
So, who is your favorite Monogatari character?
