CATDOLL: A Japanese website voted for the most popular stupid character. Is there anyone who loves him even though he is stupid?

There are always some characters who seem to have low IQ in Japanese anime works. Although we complain about them as idiots while watching them, these guys are always very popular, and many people like them in animation and real life. So are these characters really idiots? They are all winners in life... So the Japanese website selected a ranking of "popular characters who look like idiots no matter how you look at them". Let's take a look at which ones are on the list.

No. 10: Anna Oribe, "Love Killer"

Anna Oribe, one of the characters in "Love Killer", is an invincible idiot with a stupid head and a physique comparable to that of a cockroach. Her IQ is almost 0, but she is optimistic and fearless. She always sticks to Sonia and does things that will get her punished. Netizens complain about her "high defense" and "thick blood", and she will occasionally unexpectedly fight back in a stupid way.

No. 9: Katsura Kotaro "Gintama"

Katsura Kotaro is a character in the Japanese manga "Gintama" by Sorachi Hideaki. He is one of the survivors of the Anti-foreign War. He looks like a cool and handsome man, but he is actually a fool. He often enters a delusional state and does nonsensical things seriously. When someone calls him "wig", he will always say: "It's not a wig, it's Katsura" (same pronunciation in Japanese). Because he has a big imagination and a wide range of thoughts, he has a wide range of hobbies. He likes married women and NTR, and he likes cats and dogs and Nintendo Famicom.

No. 8: Nohara Shinnosuke "Crayon Shin-chan"

Nohara Shinnosuke, the protagonist of the manga "Crayon Shin-chan" by cartoonist Yoshito Usui, is passionate, outspoken, precocious, not very active, easily jealous, nonsensical, treacherous, ruthless, hard to get into situations, and his behavior is always beyond logic. If you use one word to describe this child who never grows up, it is "cheap", but from the fact that he can play the piano with his feet and buttocks, and can write Chinese characters at the level of a first-grade elementary school student, it seems far-fetched to say that he has a low IQ, and it is more appropriate to say that he is funny.

No. 7: Kamijou Touma, "A Certain Magical Index"

Kamijou Touma, the protagonist of the anime "A Certain Magical Index", is a high school student with a hedgehog hairstyle. He is the true embodiment of the urban legend of "a man who has the ability to invalidate any ability". His right hand, which is inhabited by "Fantasy Slayer", has the special ability to make all supernatural powers disappear, regardless of good or evil. However, no ability can hide the fact that he is a fool. He often fails exams and skips classes. If he does not receive summer tutoring, he will even repeat a grade. His English ability is so good that he only scored 22 points in the class test. His English teacher once commented: "You will be locked up for life!"

No. 6: Matsuno Jūsatsu "Osomatsu"

Matsuno Jushimatsu, a character in the 2015 hit phenomenon animation "Osomatsu", is the fifth son of the Matsuno family and a nuclear warhead among the six brothers. He is a chatterbox and a great singer. Because Jushimatsu had one of his hairs plucked out when he was a child, it touched his brain nerves, and due to incurable reasons, he became the crazy and lunatic he is now, and because of this, he only has one hair on his head now.

No. 5: Yuigahama Yui, "My Teen Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected"

Yuigahama Yui is one of the characters in the light novel "My Teen Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected." and its derivative works. Like the Great Teacher, she is in the 2nd year F group, but she belongs to the Miura Yumiko group in the current group. She once asked the Servant Club for help because she wanted to make cookies for someone. After that, she has been in contact with the Servant Club and became a member of it. Although she is a bit natural in all aspects, she is actually very good at catering to others and is a very gentle person. She sometimes reacts very slowly and hesitates in her actions. In the eyes of the Great Teacher, Yui is a fool and often wonders how Yui got into Sobu High School.

No. 4: Tabata Hidenori's "The Daily Life of High School Boys"

High school boys often have a lot of random thoughts in their heads, and they keep doing stupid things to praise the youth of high school students. Tabata Hide plays the role of a youth trouble mentor in this spoof animation trio, and together with his best friend Yoshitake, he tries to solve the troubles of ordinary high school boy Tadakuni. In fact, in the final analysis, the trio are all big funny guys.

No. 3: Haruhara Hinata "CLANNAD"

Haruhara Yohei, a character in the anime "CLANNAD", is a good friend of Okazaki Tomoya and "takes" Tomoya in the dormitory every night. Yohei seems to be a fool and likes to show off, but he is a key figure throughout the main storyline of CLANNAD. He has been a good friend of Tomoya from beginning to end. On the surface, he just talks and laughs, but in his heart he cherishes and trusts Tomoya. He is also Tomoya's only male friend. He entered the school as a sports recommendation student, but was forced to withdraw from the football club soon after. He and Tomoya have the title of bad boy at Hikarizaka High School. In other ways, he is a stronger person than the protagonist Okazaki Tomoya.

No. 2: Nobita Nobi from Doraemon

Nobita Nobi is the second protagonist in the comic book Doraemon by Japanese cartoonist Fujiko F. Fujio. He is cowardly, timid, and forgetful, but his strengths are that he is responsible, kind, and upright. He is a person who "feels sad for the misfortunes of others and prays for the happiness of others." Nobita's grades are very poor and he often gets zero marks. When he reads, his mind is confused and he feels dizzy. He can only do his homework for three days at most. Despite Nobita's many shortcomings, almost everyone still likes this image involuntarily. In every storyline, when Nobita competes with Fat Tiger and Suneo, they still hope that Nobita can win. This is not only because everyone has a compassionate emotion and sympathy for the weak, but also because Nobita looks like ourselves.

No. 1: Akihisa Yoshii, Baka and Test: Summon the Beasts

Akihisa Yoshii is the protagonist of the anime "Baka and Test: Summon the Beasts" and its derivative works. Although he looks like a beautiful boy, his appearance is offset by his stupid aura. He has the title of "Observer and Disciplinarian", which is synonymous with stupidity. His academic performance is poor, perhaps due to his lack of intelligence, but he can improve his grades a lot by memorizing. Akihisa Yoshii holds a "female supremacist" attitude, so his mother and sister are completely incompetent at housework, which has also made Akihisa an expert in housework, especially in cooking, which is beyond the level of ordinary family cooking.
