MEGUMIN IS BEST GIRL
CannonFox FIGHT ME!!!
CannonFox it's obliviously Darkness
chuuni trash you mean
EXPLOSIOOOOOON
This thread needs more Wiz!
So this is what Vinny was talking about
C'mon Makise Kurisu is, and forever will be, best girl. There's no competition.
You aren't wrong
A fellow intellectual, I see.
Ya, I still can't decided between her, Maho, and Mai from bunny girl sempai. All 3 are like equally great. For now all three are best girls.
Reina Scully is my best girl :D She is simply the BEST
She's also my best girl definitely
I love both Reina and Victoria! idk why Reina has such a bigger following it seems, but never the less I like the two of them equally. Both Best Girls in my heart :)
spf and sourcefed
Yeah...how can you not know why Reina has a bigger following? She's been all over the Internet.
Oh I wouldn't know. I don't go on the internet all that much anymore (I can barely find the time!) and I don't visit many pages other than KZhead and Crunchyroll of course XP
Come on, Victoria. You know in your heart that Best Girl is clearly... *ELMA!!*
nah Tohru is better
Ramen_4_Life Elma is who I would date IRL but Tohru is the best girl in the show.
ahem, Kanna is clearly the best girl in that show... but for dating, its gonna be Lucoa
Best girl in order: Speedwagon > Everyone else
Nagisa Shiota best girl oh wait...
you know it could be nagisa from clannad ..... not nagisa from assination
MSH HD you right. from assassination classroom
though I loved Clannad Nagisa too
felix best girl o wait
wow i really spelt that wrong so badly without realising ..... i wanna kms
Thanks vin
Julis-Alexia Von Riessfeld from The Asterisk War, Urara Shiraishi from Yamada Kun and The Seven Witches, and Yui from Trinity Seven.
you showed so many pictures of Senjougahara, the true best girl
My "best girls" are Hitagi Senjogahara, Suruga Kanbaru, and Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-under-Blade! All are from the Monogateri series.
Lalatina Dustiness Ford. Period. Fight me.
Simon Berntsson superior taste.
well for most anime "Best Girl" is completely subjective, on the other hand in Re:Zero there is no doubt that Rem is Best girl and anyone who says otherwise needs to get their head checked
whos rem
Kiss-shot Accelora Orion Heart -Under-Blade is the ultimate form of best girl. No other girl can even get close.
Rem is bes... wait a sec, who is Rem?
Wtfninjasfromhell Simple, she is THE best girl.
But who is Rem? I don't know this person.
Wtfninjasfromhell She is from "Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World"
I've seen the whole show, I don't remember anybody named Rem.
Wtfninjasfromhell The blue haired maid, search it to refresh memory ^.^
megumin from konosuba watch it super good
Vinny, your Helix game is top notch.
Rikka is best girl ^~^
Indeed. I love her.
My favorite girls are: C.C. from Code Geass, Sena from Haganai (well, no shit, look at my avatar), Rem from Re:Zero, Yakumo from School Rumble, and Hideyoshi from Baka and Test (yes, I am aware of the penis, and like Akihisa I don't mind).
Who is the white haired girl throughout the video and especially at the beginning with the Notebook labelled "Notes" and also at the 1.08 mark?
I do love Asuka, but I think my new favorite BG is 002 from Darling in the Franxx (which I actually believe Trigger just used Asuka as their inspiration for her ;) ! ! !
zero two is second on my best girl list first is Sakurajima Mai from Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai
That t-shirt is awesome! Does anyone know where this is available? Is it on the CR store?
Shinobu and rem and mashiro and kanade and too many to count
Also Natsukawa Masuzu from oreshura since this video had her xD
I like Rem as best girl, dont know the others
What anime is the white-haired girl in this video?
Grey Angel oreshura
Risa Koizumi and Celty Sturluson are best girls
0:52 YES THEY DO!!!
Best girl is you Victoria! cheers!
SailorBee = best girl!
I guess if I had to pick a "Best Girl" it would be Revy from Black Lagoon. She's hot, funny, super badass, and most of all complicated. I feel like alot of the characters chosen as "Best Girl" are pretty one dimensional, but Revy has some real depth with her views on the world, her relationship with Rock, and her loyalty to Dutch and the rest of the members of The Lagoon Company.
I once got a rough idea of best girl, I thought it meant a specific female character who’s very likable however not initially designed to be liked that much, this character is liked more by the player than in game characters. For example Loki in the MCU....if he was a girl and wasn’t trying to invade earth during the Avengers movie.
you got it right, Asuka IS the best girl!!!
Isn't the actual translation "chie from persona 4"
¿ Why put a picture of *Shikinami* Asuka Langley while citing *Souryuu* Asuka Langley though ? 🤓
TRUE. That's what I'm sayin.
REBUILDS ARE A SEQUEL TO EVANGELION
My thoughts exactly, keep that rebuild trash away from my Eva and Asuka.
Kiss Shot Acerola Orion Heart Under Blade = Best Girl hands down no competition
I'm not sure if she's my best girl, but I adored Hanayo from Love Live XD
What anime is this mysterious lady Mauve (not sure how to spell the name) from?
damn that thumbnail. you like superior early 2000's best girls I see
I’m still new to anime.... It depends on the series.... But I guess either Nozomi Tojo, hanamaru kunikida, or Victorique de blois...
I feel like this might be the first time anything/anyone from Eureka Seven has made it into Anime Academy. But Anemone is way to fucking psycho to be best girl.
will there ever be an anime academy tshirt cause i want it
Saber is BEST girl period
YES.
Actually I choose one best girl a year. 2014 was Esdeath, 2015 was Rachnerra, and last year was Rory Mercury (props to Rem though, obviously.)
From what anime is that white haired girl in blue uniform ? . I forgot the name of the anime xD .
0:51 "Whether pineapples belong anywhere near pizza... they don't." Me: *Slams desk* Thank You! Victoria is BEST GIRL FTW!!
Taiga, Kaori, Rem, Yui Hirasawa, Rikka Takanashi, Tohru, and Kurisu for life.
senjougahara best girl
Skyform Read Kizumonogatari. (Senjougahara second best design after Ever17's Tsugumi; we need an Ever17 anime).
seryu ubiquitous I don't know there's just something about how crazy she gets for the greatest intentions she is best girl
Sometimes I'll have a BEST girl from a series but she won't be my FAVORITE girl from that series. So I'll have a best girl from a series and a different girl be my pick for a waifu in the same series. Does that make sense? Lol
Sailor Bee in the anime "Crunchyroll" is definitely BEST👏GIRL👏
I feel informed.
Only Victoria can taunt about who the best girl is, and get positive reactions. Also, Mutsumi Otohime from Love Hina.
We all know Victoria and Reina are best girl!!♥
The Beauty is best girl, Tohru best waifu, Miia best snek, and Kobayashi best dad. #MildTake
Gave me a good laugh, thanks. Tenryuu is best girl.
Esdeath, Junko Enoshima, Celestia Ludenberg, Peko Pekoyama, Minene Uryuu (9th)...
What anime is the first few pictures from?
Marika Tachibana
Savage Victoria!
Please put anime you use in the video in the description
They do.
Seras Victoria, Asuka Langley Soryu and Ryuko Matoi.
whats the first anime shown at 0:12 ?
Can I get a list of the animes in the videos pls
How do you not mention Rem in same sentence as best girl, she won your awards
I think that the mere fact that this video needed to be made speaks volumes about the immaturity of the community. And people wonder why no one takes us seriously.
Scientists all agree on the fact that Kobayashi is indeed best girl.
Tohru is Best Girl
Who is the girl whit white hair and blue uniform school please . this anime is not licensed in my contry 'france' thank you in advance.
I Love Emilia
My heart says Koala but my gum gum fruit says Robin.
Misaka Mikoto my best girl
Remembers the Waifu wars of 1943, dear gods.
Bunny Yasando is best girl.
asuka, chitoge, shiina mashiro and senjougahara
Everyone knows the best girl is really Akane Tsunemori. There's not even a point to discuss this, so when people say best girl, they mean someone other than her, because she's beyond comparison.
Rachnera is best girl 😤
GG Dat Boi my man. knows what's up.
I see you're cultured as well
GG Dat Boi Miia, Centorea, Suu, and Papi are great too tho
#MarryThemAll

Best girl is a tie between Reina and Victoria
Erza Scarlet is def best girl. not only is she super hot (also, sometimes adorable AF}, shes also a massive badass
For me it's Nico Robin from One piece (but since we are in a new arc it's now Carrot and Reiju :))
Meika From Puch Line Best Girl (also Tomoko :v)

Iroha from oregairu will forever be best girl
The term "Best Pony" has found its way into the Brony community as an extension of this trope. (b.t.w. it's Rarity).
Tohru is best girl
Yes! Best Kobayashi character.
Kaiki is best girl and no one can take that from him. Niku niku niku niku niku niku niku niku ...
