Not sure but pretty sure for #5
5 Alvein Tales of Phantasia
They were mentioning Alvin from Xillia since it was close to his name and it is the picture of his name but has the game title listed as Tales of Phantasia. That or it could be they meant Cress Albane but I'm pretty sure it was the former.

What the hell is with Otaku and their disturbing obsession with blood siblings?

I thought the 'ideal sibling' thing was weird. Not disturbing or creepy, just weird. It's like...I dunno, having a major poll where you voted for 'ideal parent'.

So many lonely kids in Japan.

It's Alvin from Tales of Xillia. Cless was 24th

I'm pretty sure Rita Mordio would be by far the worst sibling aside from like Jade Curtis, because would just be plain weird.

Yuri no doubt. Id put Yuri in the top five characters across any game period. Nobody takes out the trash like he does.

An ideal sibling list. Now this is something new lol.
Well siblings are ideal partners for people spoiler[in quests] so I guess it's alright.

But still I think there's no need to take it to another area as this is a list for to which characters they had a affection in a non-sexual way.

It's not like Repede had much competition. Pretty much every other mascot is some sort of stupid annoying... thing.

I dunno. I have to admit it's a question I've thought about before. Well, not seriously, but then again, I doubt most of the voters did, so... Anyway, my brother and I play Tales games together once in a while and I once commented I'd trade him in for Genis in a heartbeat.

It's not just otaku too - it's the whole dang Japan. They always have "Best ___-ist" awards for pretty much anything ya can think of. Laughing

Ideal Boss vote

Best Jeanist



Best Dressed Eyes

Hey now, Tenebrae was pretty cool, he was just stuck in a crappy game. If ToS2 was designed better, he probably would have been a playable character and much higher on the list.

Pascal not being in at least the top 10 saddens me. She's so goddamn adorable.

....Then again, Graces is the only one I've played*, so I probably should play a few more before I open my mouth.


*: I didn't even play it, technically--long story short, my friend plays it and I watch. Even though I'm the one with the PS3 and it's my game. Odd I know.
