Is there a personality, physical or other trait common among most of your favorite/best girl in VNs?

[NowItsAngeTime]

Are they usually the tsundere? The one with long black hair? The canon (or most likely canon) love interest? The most badass one? The non-datable minor character? 

If there's no common trait you can find feel free to post some best girls to see if people can find something.

I tend to like the nice/friendly/happy girls with maybe a dose of energeticness or weirdness.

Examples:

• Kotori and Shizuru from Rewrite
• Asuho from Hoshimemo
• Risa from Wanko to Kurasou
• Tsubaki from G-sen
• Wanko from MajiKoi
• Emi from Katawa Shoujo
• Sakura from Fate/Stay
• Phorni from Symphonic Rain
• Rise from Princess Evangile

There are likely to be exceptions (which I said most) so if a few of your bests don't mix with the others that's ok.

[Kawasumi]

eh yeah, short hair and tomboyish/a trap.

[tymmur]

They have boobs

 

It's actually a hard question because I haven't thought about it like that. Funloving is good and so is long red hair. Strong willed is also nice.

[Dergonu]

Just give me the tsun tsun and no one gets hurt.

[DharmaFreedom]

Momoyo, Mayu and Margit from Majikoi 

Yumiko from Grisaia

Kagome and Hisoka from Coμ

Kosame and Komomo from Hoshizora

Neon from Gahktun

Haru and Yuki from G-Senjou

They're all headstrong, strong willed and independent. Fierce and rough in some cases lol [maybe sadistic].

Physical trends, Long hair, Tall, Athletic, Hosome eyes

Except for the protag. 

[Silvz]

I don't have a favorite type, but I usually like Tsunderes, even though it is not common [at least as far as I've seen]. I also like sarcastic characters, the ones you know is mocking you even though it looks cute.

Since I'm still hyped from Fata Morgana, Giselle is my actual fave now s2

[Flutterz]

They seem to be foreigners (to Japan) a lot, now that I think about it o.O

- Kud (Russian)

- Illya (German)

- Lilly (Scottish)

Pretend that I didn't forget the comma between would've and kowai 

Indeed we do 

[Fred the Barber]

In a word: competent. Spare me the moe clumsiness.

• KonoSora's Ageha
• Symphonic Rain's Torta
• To Heart 2's Tama-nee
• Rewrite's Kotori

I like the girls who have their shit together on basically all levels.

But I know that can't be all of it, because I'd probably put Sachi near the bottom of the Grisaia list, certainly below Michiru, and I can't think of a better illustration of competent vs. incompetent than Sachi vs. Michiru.

Attraction is a mysterious thing.

Symphonic Rain's Torta

except her minds, right?

So harsh! I mean, yes, the whole setup was a terrible idea in the first place, but I bet once you're a year into that charade it's kind of hard to even imagine a way out of it. So I don't blame her for the premise, and everything else about her is crazy impressive.

Anyway, maybe she's not at Ageha's level on having-her-shit-togetherness, but much love for Torta.

[Asonn]

Lolis, I like lolis.

 

[Codesterz]

I'm with Asonn on this one

Tsun Tsuns are the biases

and Capables are the bests

Capable Tsun Tsuns are the ultimates

[Jade]

Speaking of a personality trait, of course it's got to be an Innocent and Kind-hearted girl. 

Nothing beat thosei tell ya.

[Arcadeotic]

I have a thing for stoic and shy girls who get super-sweet as the relationship progresses, like No.1 girl Michiru here:

[Barktooth]

They usually have short hair, pettanko (not necessarily loli), and are stoic, antisocial/reserved, mysterious, blunt/honest. 

Also often can be cynic, mischievous, lazy. That's what I can gather from looking at character traits on VNDB, at least. Some examples:

• Senri Akane from Rewrite
• Suwa Setsuna from Hoshizora no Memoria
• Irisu Makina from Grisaia
• Tezuka Rin from Katawa Shoujo

 

 

[Leaf]

Girls with long hair, have amazing inner strength to overcome things and keep pushing through, but also have weaknesses and frailty that makes you want to protect them and be by their side even if they don't ask for it. Basically girls that try to act tough, but are really sweet deep down.

Kyouko Kirigiri- DanganRonpa

Kurisu Makise- Steins;Gate

Mei Amanohokosaka- XBlaze 

[ShinRaikdou]

Looking in my folder with profiles of best girls - there's no common trait, except there's none Kyonyuu, true loli, and idiot personality.

As for preference -

1) tomboys with proactive/assertive trait.  If tanned -  

2) if you choose from all the -dere, it definitely will be Coodere. I love silent, or just not loud characters.

3) Pure love obsession like Miyako(Majikoi) and maybe Nagi(Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai), who glued to you and  discarding Keigo(-kun,-san and etc)

4) Strong and Smart, but not Arrogant or Selfish like most Himedere.

5) With perverted mind, who not say cliche words like "Dame dame" in H, and fully enjoying process without regrets and complains.

etc...so many who i love...

 

It easier to tell who you avoid, and for me - it is idiots; shy, who running away and cannot say a word; and of course pink haired Airhead-Clumsy Deredere with bouncing breast - epitome of my hate.

LOLIS

Agreed on the stoic and shy characters, it'd be even better if they don't panic in serious situations.

Another favorite characteristic of mine is if they're unsociable/weird, like Usami Haru from G-Senjou no Maou

[Satsuki]

One word, Loli
