My votes:
Tomochin
- She's the first member I really took notice of. So far, no one has been able to knock her off the top of my list. I pretty much love everything about her. Her looks, her personality, her dance moves. I could go on for a lot longer, but I'll save that for her thread sometime.
Miichan - She is such a cutie. The scene where she's in the bathroom putting on lipstick is the one I remember the most from the Seifuku PV. Also, she made the shuffle version of Blue Rose she was in worth watching, even if the other three girls looked like they would have rather been somewhere else.
And of course, there was Mendol.
Tomo~mi - She probably made my top 5 mostly because of the TomoTomo bits. But that doesn't stop the fact that she's very pretty. I love how she can look so innocent, and then flash that smile that makes it look like she is seriously up to something. I'm sure my slight Yuri fetish doesn't hurt her position in my mind either.
Erepyon - I just got through rewatching Tonari no Banana from H2, so after Tomo~mi, Erepyon seemed like the obvious next choice. She started out as simply one of the cute ones, but she is growning up rather nicely. She's also the very first member of AKB48 I ever saw (In the live action "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni" movie).
Mayuyu - She may be a robot, but when she smiles (which is nowhere near often enough) she could soften a heart of steel. Also, I've been watching the Kanpeki Gu~no ne PV quite a bit lately, so she's been on my mind.
I like a lot of the girls, and narrowing it down to only five was extremely tough. Really, Tomochin is the only unmovable one on the list. On some other day the other four may have been Yukirin, Yuko, Kojiharu, and Takamina.
