Those polls are so weird to me because Reimu is always at the top.
In what other series is the main character ever at the top?
But I don't think Mima coming back is an American thing.
She'll probably come back in some side game or Phantasmagoria.

Isn't the asshole rival usualy the most popular? Even in touhou, more people seem to like Marisa more than Reimu...
No, she's chillin' at the shrine with Genji. ZUN said so, don't bother him about it.Where did you read/see/hear this info?

Every so often I (and probably you too) hear the cry for ZUN to bring back some of the older characters. In fact I hear it quite a bit. However when I see things like this http://www.gensokyo.org/thvote6/results_char_en.html (http://www.gensokyo.org/thvote6/results_char_en.html) it makes me wonder when a character with no in game dialogue like Momiji is more popular than Mima, Shinki and Yumemi combined. It made me wonder a bit if the whole "bring back Mima" thing is more of an English Touhou fan thing or if it is even just trolling.usually, Windows games seem to be more popular than their PC-98 counterparts.
It's the classic case of a very vocal minority drowning out a silent majority, really. Like Kilga said, her fans are, um, a lot louder than those who dislike her, or even those who are just neutral to her, and as such it gives off a disproportionate image of how popular she really is~while it's true that her absence is missed with such intensity, I'll ignore further attempts to aggravate fans of Mima, such as myself. In fact, such attempts only serve to put the "Mima fans are retarded" meme that some people try to establish, into practice against *their* favorite characters.
...Yumemi's better anyway grumble-grumble...
Sephiroth has enough fanboys willing to give him anal sex to prove this theory.
I usually don't let fans ruin something for me, but FF7 and Uchiha Sasuke fans really earn my ire.
And don't evenget me started on Yowie. (I can't as my friend has informed me that I shall never know what it is to preserve my sanity. This friend of mine has had his mind blown by whatever-it-is' craziness)
For now, my sanity remains intact
the single gender polulation greatly reduces the yaoi ships from sailing.I wouldn't be so sure of that buddy...
Actually, I think the limited amount of men gives off a heavy magnetism to ship gay couples.that, and the few females who are Touhou fans...because "we the fujoshis" (XD) have lot of imagination when make pairings and plots for make it so-so possible. the combination yaoi fan-Touhou fan is rare, and the combi with artistic capabilities is a lot more eerie. (tra-la-la n_n)

Mima will return after ZUN consumes the strongest beer in the history of the world. Discuss.No, that'll just bring us more Cirno.
Mima seems bigger than she is because her fans are much, much louder (and more obnoxious as a result) than any other character's fans.
No, that'll just bring us more Cirno.
Not that that would be a bad thing, mind you.

The Mima fandom is the Touhou equivalent of those people who think that Tupac Shakur is still alive and is releasing new rap albums from his secret hideout.thank you for confirming my point of view from my former post.
Wait a moment, Then Cirno must obviously be Mima in disguise! It all makes sense now.
she's cool cuz she has green hair, and sanae is dumb.
No serious, she probably gets bonus points among fans for being the first major Villain.
Oh really, that would mean they care about pre-EoSD outside of her.
I realize I'm just being a troll, but it really annoys me how her fans paint Mima as an all-powerful badass with TWILIGHT SPARK and shit, when I bet only a small percentage have ever played SoEW, reached Mima and collapsed into a stupor when they realize she doesn't even HAVE a laser attack.
No, that'll just bring us more Cirno.Nah, more Sanae :>

Oh really, that would mean they care about pre-EoSD outside of her.
And they got it from Touhou Soccer, and got the odd idea that Touhou Soccer isn't an exaggeration of everyone's abilities.I knew that much, but I'm curious where they got the idea for the move in general... Heck, she even has a spark combo with Yuka, making it seem like the two had any connection whatsoever (well, aside being playable in MS, but as far as I can tell the two have never met face-to-face). Did they just think since Marisa had one Mima needs a bigger one?

I guess they also did it because yeah 'Marisa's mentor who is obviously superior' shit.That would require either Marisa or Mima to be the original creator of the Master Spark, which even most who've never played PC-98 would know is not the case. =V

Her lazor appeared in mystic square as her bomb.

Well, I will agree that Marisa is more interesting than Reimu~I used the poll because I can't think of any better gauge. The question I ask of you is there an accurate way of gauging popularity?
Ahem. But really, these kind of popularity polls are just silly. It's very easy for the vote to be swayed. Using it as a gauge of how popular a character is is just as silly as gauging popularity by how much someone goes on about them, or how much art they have uploaded to Danbooru, or some other equally silly and arbitrary method.
