Tuesday Otaku Debate: Which K-On! girl is your favorite?
by Red Baylon, 05/26/2009
Tuesday Otaku Debate: Which K-On! girl is your favorite? photo

Last's week's debate over a dream battle between legendary Japanese swordsman, Miyamoto Musashi, and ancient Chinese war hero, Lu Bu, was a neck-and-neck battle, but we now have a winner. Though the battle was overwhilmengly favorable for Lu Bu at first, but it was Miyamoto Musashi came out victorius in the end.

Lu Bu: 19

Miyamoto Musashi: 22

In the end, Miyamoto Musashi died from cancer at the age of 62 with a sword in hand during his final moments. The only way that I'd think that Lu Bu would win this fight is if he had shot Musashi with cancer-tipped arrows and only then Lu Bu could have won. After years of suffering for Musashi, of course. Cancer is not funny, people.

 

Hit the jump for this week's debate and some videos. DEBATE-ON!

This week's debate features the moe girls from the hit anime series K-On! These four lovely ladies are the members of the pop music club at their highschool are each unique in their own ways, and are sure to please all tastes (or fetishes) of otaku everywhere.

These four girls also form a pop band with their own instruments. We have the ditzy and helpless but oh so cute castanets expert Yui on guitar, next we have the shy left-handed beauty Mio on bass guitar, then we have the cool and outgoing Ritsu on drums, and lastly, we have the gentle and elegant Tsumugi on the keyboard.

 

K-On! OP "Cagayake Girls!"

 

K-On! ED - "Don't say Lazy"

Reibooi

Mio
 
Abraham Lincoln

Not much of a contest God Len.

MIO FTW-ON!
 
Ben Huber

We all know Mio is going to win this by a landslide. That said...

I'd go for Mio too. :P
 
Red Baylon

My vote goes to Mio since I prefer dark long haired girls. If she wore glasses then I would ask her to marry me NOW.
 
MmmCurry

Mio. No contest. Sorry Yui. :(

 
Red Baylon

@Abraham Lincoln

God Len isn't here anymore that's why this week isn't so great. Apologies.

*CRIES*
 
Xelotath

Mio
 
darkcyder

I love Yui, but I couldn't bring myself to date a retard.
Mio is a pain.
Ritsu is overly-energetic and probably insane.
Mugi is a lesbian.



Can I choose Ui instead?
If not I'll make it work with Ritsu somehow
 
Hip-Albatross

i would have said mio like 4 episodes ago, they are making her retarded, yui seems normal now besides typical moe quirks
so ill go yui
 
envys ivy

i like yui but i love mio she is odviously going to win
 
envys ivy

@darkcyder why you hating on mugi-chan shes bear sweet all.the time.
 
Kageryu

Mio.
 
Jeff Chuang

Mio ftw
 
Ace0fClub5

YUI!
The "furu tsurottoru" line in the op gets me every time.
And not to mention she has great taste in guitars...
 
raasbo

Yea...There is going to be a landslide...So i'm going to vote for Mugi.
 
serial

Mio is going to win, even if I don't like her as much. She's Moe, but she's not my fave.

My favorite is Yui, thus I vote for Yui.
 
dark

Sorry, but...

MioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMio
MioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMioMio
 
Heero Yuy

I don't know why you even bothered with this Redzie... there's only two possibilites:

1) Mio is going to win (most likely)

or

2) Mio is going to lose because people that might normally vote for her but expect her to win anyways vote for another character just for kicks.
 
tsukika

Mio+1 vote ^^ She's definitely the cutest of them all XD Tsumugi and Yui are very close seconds
 
The-Excel

I have yet to see this show but initial bias leans toward the one called Yui. Bonus points if you can guess why.
 
Heero Yuy

Oh yeah, I vote Mio. Mmmmmmm... Mio....
 
Xelotath

Maybe you should have added the other characters(Ui, Sawako-sensei and Yui's friend that I mistook for a guy at first) and the newest and loli member of the club Nakano Azusa. Not that I would have voted for someone other than Mio.
 
Kougeru

Azusa...
 
mrberns

I know its futile, but I'm all about Yui.
 
 
Miraito

Ritsu is my kind of girl... but I know Mio is going to win anyway :\ Also looks like I am the only one so far voting for Ritsu lol. fail.
 
kamanashi

Yui for me. She is to cute to pass up for me. THe more Yui I see, the better. Though, Ritsu is pretty good too, just not good enough.
 
u nick

Ritsu is usually my type as well, but Mio's presence is mindnumbing. She's new-Kagami. Or dare I say even has potential to out-Kagami Kagami.

So yeah:

MIO
 
JacksonDane

Yui is top tier
 
redroses3164

Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio.

 
Schwindelmagier

No contest.
Mio all the way!!!

 
Wedge Jaeger

yeah, I'll have to go with Mio
 
SpaceKase

Being a bass player myself, I have to support fellow bassists. Mio FTW.

Of course, I would have voted for her even if I didn't play.
 
Gee-Man

Mio is going to destroy this competition. It's like asking who would win in a brawl between Kamina, a pre-episode-11 Simon, a dyslexic Light, and a blind Lelouch. It simply isn't fair.

There's no point but I will throw my vote in for Ritsu. She's the drummer, that alone increases my like for her. Ask any band who has to put up with the most shit despite being the hardest worker; it's always the drummer.
 
meonlyme775

Mio will win by a landslide, so I'm going with Mugi.
 
wickedends

@ meonlyme775

I'm w/ you.
Mugi is my vote even though Mio is FTW.
Mugi's an adorable ditz, unlike Yui who's just stupid...plus she's LOADED!
 
sh1nd0kun

MIO! i ///< and if not her then azusa looks promising...
 
Kiva

Not much of a contest. Mio.
 
Nashk

eh? Whats this about God Len not being here? Thats a bit of a downer.

In any case I will vote for his sake! I vote for Mugi. Dont see too many lesbians as a main character anymore.
 
fukumotofan1369

Mio, of course!
 
Dan CiTi

I haven't really seen the show so...Mugi.

 
Myhnegon

it is all about Mio
 
GisforGrenade

Have a thing for blonde lesbians so Mugi it is.
 
Ariolander

Ritsu because I am a rebel! and I got a thing for her drums...
 
Chris Walden

Screw Mio, Yui all the way!
 
Cheesus

I'd like to say Ritsu just because she is way underrated, but Yui is just so adorable.
Yui!
 
Pangloss

Mio is going to annihilate this contest, no question. But the answer has been Ritsu for me ever since her DYNAMIC ENTRY thing. Unspeakably adorable is good and all, but Ritsu is just fuckawesome.

If you'd thrown Metal-sensei in the running, she would've had my vote.
 
MAXattack

Mio!
 
Bomberdude

I vote is for Yomi....i mean Mio.
 
Xeao

I can't resist even if she might be lesbian Mugi-chan she just so cute

 
xlotrx

MUGI MUGI MUGI !!!!
 
Ermintar

Yes!Yes! I vote for Yomi!
 
andiibooo

YUI! with a side of Ui please.
 
Wilsonx1999

I don't care if everybody votes for Mio, my vote and love goes for Tsumugi! TSUMUGI FTW! XD
 
2 owls? I'm there!

TSUMUGI!!!!!!! Defo, I love her eyebrows, I want to wrap them around myself in eyebrow furriness.

Go forward Tsumugi fans!!!

 
PBz0r

Yui is the only one in this show making me laugh.
 
Murasakivie

Yui, of course!
 
Al-mal

ritsu
 
astronomical

Stupid Mio, you only want her for her body.
Kidding, I don't hate her.

I vote YUI (& UI).

 
MPHtails

Mugi. DEM EYEBROS and DAT KEYTAR
 
lastSKYsamurai

Mio! Only because I was thinking about her at work. Though Ritsu is cool & Yui is a clutz, Tsumugi like girls But Mio has become the standout. Ogh! Bass have become like the new guitar!

 
 
kashai

mio-chuan~
 
Aiya

no contest Mio ALL THE WAY

Mugi would be second on my list but definitely Moe moe kyun wins this cake.

 
Hamblasto

They all have things I like about them.

Yui: Clumsy as hell, but still so adorable.
Mio: Moe Scaredy Cat =

 
Hamblasto

Hmm. I forgot that brackets break comments.

Oh well, instead of rewriting what I said...

Vote goes to Mio.
 
XElectrastarX

K-On is like Ichigo Mashimaro with musical instruments. In Ichigo, Miu was my favorite and Ritsu reminds me of her a lot so I'm voting Ritsu
 
President Stalin

Vote goes for Mio. Though they play up the scaredy-cat stuff too much in the recent episodes, she's still the best character.

I'd vote for Sawako if she were an option though just because she's metal.
 
shmoffee

I normally don't like girl with long hair.
But the black and green stripe arm socks really gets me. Because I have one too.
So I have to vote for Mio. Sorry guys for Anti-Mio.
But I like Azusa as well.

 
The_Kenji

Ritsu
 
meluckycharMS113

Ritsu. I like the short hair look on girls, and I'm a fan of the outgoing/cool type.
 
chuyinho

well,of course, mio, instead of being shy...or tsundere sometimes, she's the leader of the group.definetly my favorite character
 
Mio

[quote]NONE. They need to grow normal sized hands, then I'll vote[/quote]
Haha, that's so ironic; in episode 10, Ritsu was making fun of Mio because her hands are so big!
