That sounds pretty interesting to look into actually. I assume it's complete independence, but I'll take a look at it and make a post when I get time. : )

I was wondering because I made a Micaiah character analysis and wanted to use this as a point to show that just because she loves Daein doesn't mean she isn't willing to sacrifice a part of Daein for the greater good. 

But this point has come under some scrutiny. Anyway, what are your predictions for the CYL2 poll? I think Hector will be number one because Lyn and Ike fans will most likely flock to him. Eliwood will rise because Roy fans will flock to him. But I don't think Eliwood will be super popular. Other than that, the female side is hard to predict. I see some Tellius fans voting for Micaiah because she's now the flagship face of Tellius now that Ike's out of the picture so I see her rising. The fact she was recently added to Heroes helps her because of recency bias. Celica also has recency bias but SoV wasn't that well sold so I don't think she'll be able to perform better than the likes of Camilla and Tharja. I see Lucina fans flocking to Tharja, Chrom, Robin and Tharja was in third place so I think Tharja will win the female side. 

I think that minor characters will get a lot more votes, especially the ones who have yet to be released in Heroes. 

Ah, I was actually working on another post about Micaiah's Japanese representation that may come in handy --that is, I think the localization made her more harsh toward Ike (and Sothe's love for him) than the Japanese did. So that may be helpful whenever I get around to finally finding time to post that up. : ) I'll try to get them up in the next few days, but let me get the epilogue for you and post it in your thread. (Update: I posted in your thread with my findings!)

I generally tend to do retrospective analysis rather than predictions, but I feel the Awakening/Fates characters will perform much better. I feel the trends listed above may fit the western demographic more than the powerhouse Japanese demographic for many of the characters. Tharja and Camilla will probably place quite high as one would expect! In my previous analysis, it was worth noting that, if combined across all her games, Anna herself scored quite high! So she may be something in Heroes too.

I noticed they combined some of the games too rather than how they were separate before, which will help some characters but also put those that are still separate at a disadvantage.
