I like Anemone pretty decently, but definitely not enough to vote for 5 different versions of her. Despite that, I still would prefer her getting her 50th version over some girl I don't care for

I think Anemone don't have that much fans (I mean not that much compared to other popular girls). She just has some of whalest whale as fan. Actually, you can't judge the popularity of a girls based on a voting system where every people don't have the same number of votes. That's why popularity contests are useless and stupid. Just take them how they are. Thay's are not a way to give a new form to forgoten girls. Thay are just toys for peoples who brings most of the money in the game.

About why she is popular, I guess it's because she is one of the oldest girls. It'seasier to be popular if you have built a solid fanbase over years. As Shad said, it may also be because she is plain and generic. It's easier to catch people love if you fit all the standards. Also, having that many forms make her easier to get and easier to be loved as one of the firsts girls you got. And she as a cool Thunder Dragon animation. Having cool animation help a bit I guess.

Personally, I like her. Don't love, don't hate. I picked her over some more loved girls with our 2015 6* ticket because she has good abilities but that's all. But I like that new Anemone version more than all other versions of her.

I don't really care which character people like or don't like and I don't care if people like or not characters I like. Everyone like who they want and it's a good thing if every girls in the game are someone waifu. That mean dev and artists make they job correctly.


Like everyone here, I'm a bit sad to see alway the same girls with new forms ad other girls left on the side forever but that's it. And in a certain way, I prefer it that seeing a girl I like getting shity 5* version (did I say St Paulia?).
But it's funny to see full Anemone teams. Useless but funny. And I like that new PinkLadies even if it's already her 3rd form after not even 2 years in the game. And I can't wait for a stone to get and RG her.

I'm mostly neutral towards Anemone. I like the lightning and thunder motif and out of the various skill animations I can access they all at least look like they should hurt a lot. I'm not exactly a fan of Annie having this many versions though; if you get dupes of two of those versions you can plug them into a second squad then use the Housewife and Maid skins to have seven different looking Annies.

In terms of new versions I'd rather see more for the lower rank Knights, ideally as part of an event like #69 (The Autobiography of Past and Future, which included 5* versions of Mint, Nymphaea and Di Yu).

Yeah, it'd be great if every 2*-4* got an alternate 5* version somewhere along the line.

All in all, this is just the idol mentality speaking I guess.
We would rather see diversity, but the ones who pull their resources during the popularity contests prefer getting their waifu the top spot.

Honestly, I'm wondering if we in this forum + the Discord crowd could decide on a single flower knight, pull all our votes on her during the next contest and make her beat whoever the whales are pushing forward.

I am afraid that wont happen. If you remember we already tried that, and there are people here who also have their Idol waifu and will NOT compromise on voting anyone but.
I believe it was during the time when Cyclamen managed to crawl her way up to the 3rd spot. Some of us threw all our tickets on her to help out, but there were still people who refused to join in on the fun, because reasons... thus wasting their votes on Waifus who didnt even reach top 20 >__> just to what.... feel good about them being stubborn ? Heck if I know >_< (no shaming here, do whatever you want with your tickets as far as I am concerned, but dont bitch after the fact, that Anemone got yet another skin, when you didnt do JACK to even try and change it... and just to be crystal clear, I am not calling anyone out specifically > I dont even remember who were those people, so dont get all uppity with me. I dont care who you vote for, I merely state the facts of how it went last time.)

Unless those people stop taking these polls seriously and join in on the fun, we wont be able to do anything.

Best course of action for these polls would be to wait for the first results and see if there was a low tier knight getting up in there, and if yes we could would agree to disagree on the waifu aspect, but agree on the "For the Hor...errr... Fun" and toss all those tickets on that one girl to see if our poor small, gaijin forum can affect it in any little way (even if we managed to tip the scales by 1% added to those of the JP players, if that 1% would result in that girl finally getting in front of Anewaifu we could still consider it as a contribution from our side )

I mean I am all up for us to try, but considering the magnitude of tickets needed, unless all of us work on the same goal when the Popularity contest rolls in, we wont make even a dent.

I'd be willing to put my votes towards a single girl chosen by the forums/Discord if the following were true:
- The girl does not yet have a second version.
- The girl is not one that I actively dislike.
- Most importantly, that I think that our plan has a shot at working.

Of course I'd put a few votes towards Lily R, because waifu, but I'm a sucker for trying to pull off crazy plans like this. Now I'm curious about how many votes someone could reasonably expect to farm (assuming no refills). Then we could easily math out how many "Average Joe" players it would take to push a girl with zero votes to minimum 3rd place in previous polls.

EDIT:
Because I was bored, I mathed it. The numbers aren't exactly promising, but here they are. Note that I only included guaranteed stamina, so my calculations assume worst case scenario (no stamina from gathers or garden pots, no level ups, and no bonus tickets from chests). For the popularity poll, there would need to be 8240 "worst case scenarios" to beat Pinkladies in third place. For topic polls 1, 2, and 3, we would need 7634, 9770, and 10116 people to take first place. If I'm still bored, I'll check how the numbers change when more stamina is added (from gathers, garden, etc).

EDIT2:
And now I made a spreadsheet. You give me an average bonus stamina per day (from gathers, stamina potions, etc) and a number of votes to start with, I can tell you how many people would be needed to make a difference in any of the 4 polls. To pick a completely random example, let's say we want Lily R to beat Pinkladies and get 3rd place in the popularity poll. We'll be generous and say we get 2000 bonus stamina per day (so 10 stamina potions per day if you have 400 stamina). Lily R had 2,740,675 votes, so that's the votes to start with. Based on my spreadsheet, in order to beat Pinkladies, we'd need 1512 people.

it still cool Anemone had 5 skins

im still waiting for my Nun to have a skin, Moonvine, shit better make a list

BB got a bunny gurl one

What if they made a loli skin for her like they did with Cattleya?

Wouldn't be too bad, assuming they did it like Catt's. That is, make a normal adult skin that is the actual unit and a childhood skin as a bonus.

Personally, I like Anemone's character and design, though I could agree on it being a bit generic.
Also, her attack animations are actually pretty nice.

What I don't like is the whole concept of a flower knight having multiple versions - especially using more than one of them in the same team.
It may be silly, but I find no sense in having the same girl twice in a team/squad but with a different outfit.
The only exception is when a 2-4* girl gets a stronger counterpart that can actually be used in most maps (for example Novalis or Di Yu).
I'd be all for a game mechanic where you have a single flower knight, whose forms you can switch if you get her from the gacha/seal stones, but I know good and well that ain't happening.

As for loli Cattleya, I'd prefer her being a separate unit because there would be more events to show her character more.
In her case, she only has separate voice recordings and a single character quest, which doesn't even explain why she's in such a form suddenly.
