With the Summer-2024 season concluded, anime fans have been able to enjoy a wide variety of characters who have left their mark on the stories of this season. From memorable protagonists to supporting characters who in some cases surpassed the main characters in popularity, this year's offering did not disappoint. Even those characters who only appeared in one episode managed to make a significant impact among anime fans.
To measure which characters stood out the most, the Anime!Anime! portal conducted a survey under the title “Which character from the Summer-2024 anime did you fall in love with at first sight?“. The article presents the results of the female characters category, where the heroines who conquered the public during the summer stand out. This season brought with it a wide range of female characters, each with their own charm, from the most reserved to the most energetic. Some heroines managed to capture attention due to their emotional strength and their role in the plot, while others did so due to their complexity or their evolution throughout the episodes.
The success of these characters is not only due to their roles in the series, but also to factors such as their design, personality and the key moments they starred in. These aspects influence how fans connect with them and how they manage to stand out in a season full of strong competitors. Although male protagonists are usually the central focus of many stories, these female characters managed to steal the show in several episodes, leaving a significant mark on the audience.
Surveys like this not only show which characters are most popular with audiences, but they can also predict the future success of certain franchises, as the most beloved characters tend to drive merchandise sales and generate more social media engagement. With the end of the summer season, these results reveal public preferences and mark trends that could influence the development of future seasons or in the creation of additional content for the most notable characters.
