Tuesday Otaku Debate: Konata vs. Haruhi
by God Len, 05/27/2008
Tuesday Otaku Debate: Konata vs. Haruhi photo



The Tuesday Otaku Debate is here, ready for another fun filled otaku royal rumble. Last week we had the battle of the stomach, Ramen vs. Udon noodles. We might not live in Japan, but we’ve all tasted some of their delicacies in the past. This time the winner goes to everybody’s favorite noodle, Ramen. Udon is great, but not as well known as ramen is in the west; though on the other hand ramen does absorb flavors better than Udon, which might also have helped secure its win. Either way go have a bowl of both.

Ramen: 21
Udon: 11

This week’s moe induced debate after the jump!



This time you will have to pick favorites, something that is very hard for fans who love both. Which Otaku goddess do you love the most, Konata from Lucky Star or Haruhi from the anime of the same name? One of them is an actual goddess, and one of them is a super fan like you or me (most likely me). Who will you pick Japanator?

Heero Yuy

Uhhhhhhh...... So basically God vs. Prime Minister of anime nerddom.

I vote Kagami
 
Grublet

Konata for sure.

TIMOTEI!
 
Kageryu

Fuck you Len....Fuck you. But if I had to choose...I'd choose my waifu, God, and all around Danchou, Suzu-motherfucking-miya motherfucking Haruhi.

REPRESENT!
 
Hip-Albatross

Konata

Haruhi because if you mess with her/don't vote for her, she will f--- up the world.
 
darkcyder

I vote Haruhi, remember if she loses she'll probably remake the world....
 
byrc

Konata, no contest.

GO KONATA!!!!
 
Sean

I dislike the Haruhi series.

Go Konata! >:O
 
Nebs

Haruhi, no question about it.

A more worthy debate would be choosing between Misao against Tsuruya-san. Now that would be a hard decision. Fang VS fang, who would win?!
 
clyde

haruhi
 
The-Excel

I'm voting the lesser evil that is the Konata.
 
The-Excel

@redroses3164:
I'd love to see her try.
 
Blue Mage

Haruhi!
 
Xelotath

It's a hard choice but Konata gets my vote. I just finished watching Lucky Star for the fourth time and I could totally re-watch it now. I still watched Haruhi 3 times and can't wait for season 2.

 
EinherjarUrashima

Konata, mostly because I watched Lucky Star before I watched Haruhi. That and she's awesome.
 
PGraphics

Konata!
 
ChapelofChaos

Its hard to vote against the goddess of giant world destroying blob creatures....and chaos. Haruhi-sama gets my vote
 
Reibooi

this is the most evil choice i will ever have to make.
but I will have to go will Konata, Haruhi destroying the world be damned.
 
The_Kenji

you know this is definitely a hard one, but I'm gonna have to go with Haruhi

 
The dark prince

I like Haruhi but I have to go with my otaku brethren Konata.

 
king3vbo

Konata
 
Scotty

Oh man, these things just get harder and harder! ;_;

Damn it, I'm a big fan of both of these fine ladies, I just can't choose one!

>:|
Ok, fine.
It'll have to be Konata, she's too damn cute.
 
sheerblade

Haruhi... I hate to say it but the picture you put makes the outcome obvious, just look at them, Haruhi with 1 finger out saying she's number 1 and Konata acknowledging that she's number 2.
 
Chicken008

Haruhi.
 
Splee84

Konata, no questions asked.
 
Dale North

It hurts to make this choice, but I'll go with Konata. She's a bit closer to my heart.
 
Benu

Who ever came up with this needs to be smacked hard! I will have to go with....Haruhi. You made me choose! Are you happy now! Are you!
 
Hei

HARUHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!
 
Tertiee

My vote's for Haruhi even if it is Konata's birthday
 
Kyonshiro

HARUHI

As much as I like Konata, I love Haruhi even moreso.

HARUHI MOTHERF'ING SUZUMIYA

Now recommended by My Way Entertainment, makes of the Juggernaut Bitch™
 
Rob_Jedi

This is the most bastard of questions, my 2 fav characters of recent anime, I vote Konata cosplaying as Haruhi.
 
Orochi Borgieman

errrrrrrmmmmmm....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....uhhhhhhhhh....nnnnnnnrgggh...

Kona... NO I VOTE HARUHI!
 
Mr Nox

I haven't watched Haruhi yet, so KONATA !!
 
Cheesus

Haruhi all the way! Always! Sure, Konata is awesome, too. But.. HARUHI, man!
 
Milofo

Wait, people watched Lucky Star?!! They got past the first episode?!! I thought I had patience for a show to get good but if someone had the ability to get past even the first episode must be a god. I think Haruhi got past that first episode so my vote goes to her.
 
CyanideBlues

I'll have to vote for the youngest looking 17-18 year old I've ever seen, Konata.
 
icepick314

Haruhi all the way!!

she's got a great singing voice...in both English and Japanese!!!
 
matsumoto

you ask the hard questions!

konata is all that's awesome but... haruhi...

haruhi it is. it pains me to choose though!
 
Diadda

Lucky Star I could not watch. I tried. I really did, but by the end of the first episode I was sure I found what evil was in anime.

Haruhi wins this out of shear dislike of the other.
 
Zeouterlimits

If Haruhi loses.. my fate in humanity will utterly collapse.
Haruhi gets my vote.
 
JKTrix

Suzumiya with the Heaven Piercing finger pose.
 
Remz

haruhi. :O
 
yuetheguardian

i hate to say it but Konata is my gal of choice maybe because in essance I consider my self a male konata.
 
Fritter

Konata. Haruhi is way too overbearing. Konata is chill, and I would actually want to hang out with her.
 
 
serial

My icon is my vote.
 
Yuber

Why must I choose! But if I have to then it will have to be the one I least want to piss off: Haruhi.
 
nilcam

Haruhi.
 
Gatoh

Haruhi, no question about it.
 
gokumonster

Ughhhh.....I suppose....Konata. I relate to her more.
 
nenyanko

Konata
 
WilloughbyJackson

Sigue

Haruhi.
 
Seif

Haruhi.

So much Haruhi
 
Heero Yuy

No, seriously. I'm voting Kagami.

Though if I had to vote for one I'd vote for Haruhi for two reasons:



but I'm still voting Kagami.
 
God Len

Heero you rebel you
 
ikickshinsxd

Konata! My vote goes to you... and yes this debate made me sign up lol (>*.*)>
 
God Len

and now you can't leave ikickshinsxd
 
Hamblasto

I have a feeling that Konata is gonna win this one but it won't stop me for voting for Haruhi. Besides, Haruhi's DVD's gave me a sweet armband and hair ribbon.

but it's not like I wore the ribbon or anything... >_>
 
Wakuna

I vote Konata because her hair is blue.
 
icepick314

btw...this blog doesn't like IE7...

i've been unable to login till i tried using Firefox...

at least i'm liking new Firefox3 RC1....SOOOOO much improvement since v2...
 
Necros

Haruhi. Because she doesn't infuriate me like other characters whose names shall not be mentioned in polite company.

...

FUCK YOU KONATA
 
Oni

My vote goes to Haruhi, but only by a bit.
 
John Smith

Haruhi makes the world spin around herself and in reverse. Haruhi all the way.
 
Linuz

Konata for sure!
 
Amerowolf

...This is actually sort of hard.
I'll go with Konata.

Lol, loli.
 
Kurono K

EASILY HARUHI

Konata? she's cool and all but she doesn't compare to haruhi.

 
Bomberdude

Wooo...i finally managed to log on, how much does Japanator hate Microsoft IE?

Anyhoots, my vote has to go to Konata, its was a bloody hard choice as i hold both ladies in high regard.

Big up the Legendary Girl A!
 
Kaivin-kun

Konata.
 
Keriaku

Konata, I never got into the Haruhi worship.
 
Gogbog

O yes, lait as allways

I vote for Konata, cause she is easy to understand.
And also, even though i love Haruhi and her series, Haruhi is just a bit to... haw do i put it, self-centered to earn my vote.
 
God Len

Voting is over... who do you think won?
 
silverblackcat

Haruhi ^_^

I havn't watched that much of Lucky Star, but I think Haruhi is awesome so...yeah.
 
The-Excel

I will crucify every single one of you if I ever see you on the streets.
 
Mortem

Haruhi, not that she's my favorite character of the series, but still better than Konata...
 
Rawr KonaKona

Konata!
Haruhi seems... ok... shes bossy tho so i dont like her -.- Konata just plain cute! and i feel sad for her cuz her mom died T_T
 
Rawr KonaKona

[quote]No, seriously. I'm voting Kagami.

Though if I had to vote for one I'd vote for Haruhi for two reasons:

Rawr KonaKona
