Anime One Poll: Which Anime-Related Singer Should Appear in Kohaku Concert
posted on by Ko Ransom
The Japanese Internet service provider BIGLOBE posted the results of a user-conducted survey on which voice actor or anime song singer fans would most like to see perform in Japan's yearly Kōhaku Uta Gassen musical program on their Anime One site. This is not an official BIGLOBE survey, but a survey conducted by a user named "Umapaka" using the website's Anime Ranking Maker system.
Among the 5,587 votes cast, these were the top choices:
