MATCH #11: 7. ASUKA LANGLEY SORYU VS. 26. BOTAN
While Mugi-chads may have won, their girl was given heat by the British who made sure the sensha-do match was not an easy one. Today, we have two 90's girls who will face off and see who has the better classic touch.
Perhaps the predecessor of all best girl polls on the internet can stem from the most well-known and oldest "best girl" debate in all of otakudom: Asuka or Rei? Ever since the show aired in the 1995, the two girls represented a fierce. The debate may have exhausted itself and turned into a bit of a meme by 2020, but anyone who respects the anime medium must pay their dues to this legendary battle.
In NGE, Asuka is the red headed, hot headed Eva pilot with daddy and mommy issues. She is competent in piloting skills, but her out-of-control passion and leads to issues in battle and out of battle, both with superiors and her peers like Rei and Shinji. Despite her temperament issues, Asuka can be very helpful and will often push you to do your best. Anyone who loves Asuka must learn to tame the wild beast before they can get to her heart.
** RR 26. Botan / Yu Yu Hakusho **
If you have been paying attention to the tourney, you will notice that less than a quarter of the girls are from before 2000's, less so if you discount the Evangelion girls. Still, there were a few 80's and 90's girls too good to leave on the forgotten shelf of girls.
From the Fedi's shinigami expert, RMIV and his Royal Rumble description:
"Botan is the Shinigami 死神 of Yu Yu Hakusho, and direct assistant to Yusuke Urameshi across its 4 seasons. bubbly personality? chronically chipper? an English accent? bedecked in her traditional pink kimono wrapped in a white obi, she flies around on a boat oar symbolizing her relationship to the River Styx. yes, seriously, she's the Grim Reaper and she couldn't be more adorable.
occasionally she has reason to doff her trad garb and suit up in a red leather jacket, grabbing her St Louis slugger baseball bat when come time to crush skulls. when it's your time to crush skulls she'll reveal she is in fact a licensed personal trainer and acted as such for Team Urameshi throughout the Dark Tournament. all this to say, never was there ever a more ride-or-die girl you could have in your corner; Botan's chief value is loyalty.
according to the preview for Episode 82, Botan pseudonymously has the world high-score on Ms. Pac-Man. her favorite holiday is Christmas 🎄"
