[aListers]

1. Alice Margatroid
2. Yukari Yakumo
3. Mima
4. Nitori
5. Doremy Sweet
6. Shinmyoumaru
7. Byakuren Hijiri

These are my character votes for this year. Yuuka dropped out and got replaced with Shinmyoumaru - that's the biggest change I believe. I feel like I'm voting Alice out of force of habit now but I still feel like she's my favourite character. Can't really be bothered choosing my favourite song or favourite game unfortunately. I know what my top 3 favourite games are but I've got no idea where to start on the songs. Is there a sorting thing for songs like we have for characters?

[Niektory]

Is there a sorting thing for songs like we have for characters?

There is, but only the most dedicated would make it through the entire thing...

These polls really have to give you more than 7 slots for characters. D: I felt like I had to sacrifice some of my favorites in the name of supporting those I felt needed more support.

1. Gengetsu
2. Kurumi
3. Yukari
4. Sanae
5. Tenshi
6. Kokoro
7. Kutaka (chicken represent, whoo)

Hopefully Reimu can clinch first place again without my help.

[Mikuru]

Well, I tried to sign up for an ID, but I didn't get the e-mail. Not sure what to do about that one.

[nintendonut888]

Check your spam folder. Mine was sent there for some reason, so it may trigger some kind of filter.

[Mikuru]

Thanks, that worked! And now for my choices... last time I took part in these was before TH16, so at least one of my votes has changed, but I can't remember exactly who I voted for before. My top 3 certainly haven't changed, though!

2. Reimu
3. Sakuya
4. Suwako

[Kilgamayan]

I think those are exit poll results fwiw

[MaribelHearn42]

https://maribelhearn.com/thvote

Published my single-page English translation of the results as per usual. Questionnaire is pending, since they always publish it later, together with the comments.

[Kilgamayan]

Oop, guess I was wrong!

Eiki 19th! Miko 29th! Kasen 35th! I don't know what is causing these jumps in popularity but I don't care I'll take it!

[2J]

Thank you MaribelHearn42.

Wow. Didn't expect Reimu to lose the first place again. I'm really happy that Koishi has regaigned her third place !

And oh God, I'm so happy people enjoyed Idolatrize World as much as I did ! (and WBaWC for that matter)

[Suspicious person]

Wow, Reimu is holding a measly 50 points lead over Koishi ... and that ONLY owing to her having roughly 180 more 1st place votes than her !

I suspect that overall, there might be more Koishi votes than Reimu votes. If all Koishi lovers chose her as first pick, we could have gotten quite the upset in this poll. Hmm.

Edit : Nevermind, saw the final results, don't mind these remarks as I hide beneath the table

[nintendonut888]

I'm sorry Reimu, I failed you. :( But hey, I can't be mad at Youmu taking first place. What I can feel sad at is Eika and Urumi being outdone by the Otter Spirit what the heck. On the whole though, a good vote, with good placements.

[N-Forza]

Some people are hypothesizing Touhou Lost Word may have accounted for several of the jumps (Youmu is really strong in it and Medicine is effective against Yukari, the last boss of Chapter 1).

[Branneg Xy]

Some people are hypothesizing Touhou Lost Word may have accounted for several of the jumps (Youmu is really strong in it and Medicine is effective against Yukari, the last boss of Chapter 1).

That could very well be a solid part,and also other "Touhou-Based "Licensed games and ZUN-Approved Steam-Releases (however publishing by Mountain of faith onwards so far ) like ( "Touhou Night Festival" starringSuika )https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35TvCHzfvBY  leaving a mighty  regarding those jumps/up-keeping  ( joined-in with increasing in-games ,and  and or in-print-work Canon/Fanon/Derivative/Homage ,even indirectly,appearances  for characters such as Youmu and Koishi and Satori and Suika and Rumia... ).

(As reference of references also in regard to other non-JP/Far Eastern Searches)  https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/THWiki_Popularity_Poll ( Un-Updated) it ,implicitly and by the date&time&GMT+4 time-zone difference+ date placements (but rarely spo for date-reduction ) changes " and, looks like an undefined scores of relatively many (?),myself included were unaware or too surprised for Its Delay missing the Voting June Almost Week/Week  resulting in :both not commenting,unaware/too surprised :cirnotan:urprised  the 2020 (16th) Touhou Popularity Poll had been held,unsure if it has been Delayed in 2020(the Actual Instance) or 2021 or In-Processing of being.
On another,more cheerful  :meiling:note, it feels like there have been no (2018)" Data Loss & Replicator Votes &Vote-Cutting" , is that more than a correct feeling?
