It’s that time of the year again when the monthly magazine and tabloid “BUBKA” releases the results of their infamous questionnaires, where their readers are able to pick the female talents of 2011 they like and hate the most. In addition to those two main rankings, the magazine also asked which woman had the biggest breakthrough in 2011. Check out the various rankings below and tell us your own choices in the comments! - The Most-Loved Women of 2011 01 – 319 votes – Ayase Haruka 02 – 286 votes – Sasaki Nozomi 03 – 261 votes – Maeda Atsuko (AKB48) 04 – 245 votes – Itano Tomomi (AKB48) 05 – 238 votes – Shinoda Mariko (AKB48) 06 – 197 votes – Hara Mikie 07 – 165 votes – Kitagawa Keiko 08 – 136 votes – Horikita Maki 09 – 124 votes – Oshima Yuko (AKB48) 10 – 113 votes – Aragaki Yui 11 – 104 votes – Takei Emi 12 – 96 votes – Fukada Kyoko 13 – 88 votes – Ueto Aya 14 – 76 votes – Yamamoto Azusa 15 – 62 votes – Yuuka 16 – 60 votes – Watanabe Mayu (AKB48) 17 – 53 votes – Naka Riisa 18 – 46 votes – Kichise Michiko 19 – 41 votes – Kashiwagi Yuki (AKB48) 20 – 34 votes – Suzuki Airi (°C-ute) Many people who voted for Ayase Haruka this year commented the same things as usual: “I love her round eyes as well as the gentle and soothing feeling she is giving off”, “It’s rare to see someone with such an untainted nature among her peers. We have to protect her” and “She has such a kind personality.” Runner-up Sasaki Nozomi manged to improve by one rank compared to last year. Thanks to her great looks and style, she is the role-model for many young woman and girls. AKB48’s Maeda Atsuko came in third, ranking the highest among the countless of AKB48 girls that invaded the ranking this year again. Last year’s third place, Ueto Aya, unfortunately dropped down the 13th place – the effect of her harmonious relationship with EXILE’s HIRO? Another big loser this year was actress Nagasawa Masami. While she was able to win the crown in three consecutive years from 2007 till 2009, she only managed to come in fifth last year and even failed to enter the top 20 at all this time. The fact that she didn’t even appear in “most-despised” ranking, that you can check out below, might indicate that people simply don’t care about her anymore. - The Most-Despised Women of 2011 01 – 612 votes – Sawajiri Erika 02 – 189 votes – Saeko 03 – 166 votes – Komukai Minako 04 – 145 votes – Ueno Juri 05 – 142 votes – Becky 06 – 113 votes – Okamoto Mari 07 – 92 votes – Itano Tomomi (AKB48) 08 – 90 votes – Ueto Aya 09 – 82 votes – Ogura Yuko 10 – 77 votes – Toda Erika 11 – 72 votes – Yoshitaka Yuriko 12 – 61 votes – Hoshino Aki 13 – 53 votes – Kinoshita Yukina 14 – 45 votes – Michishige Sayumi (Morning Musume) 15 – 41 votes – Hirosue Ryoko It is Sawajiri Erika’s third year in a row to win in this category. - The Women with the Biggest Breakthrough in 2011 01 – 588 votes – Takei Emi 02 – 125 votes – Ohno Ito 03 – 95 votes – Omasa Aya 04 – 76 votes – Yoshiki Risa 05 – 64 votes – Itano Tomomi (AKB48) 06 – 55 votes – Koike Yui (Tomato n’Pine) 07 – 49 votes – Yokoyama Yui (AKB48) 08 – 43 votes – Kawaguchi Haruna 09 – 41 votes – Matsui Jurina (SKE48) 10 – 38 votes – Sakuraba Nanami 11 – 32 votes – Takimoto Miori 12 – 30 votes – Matsui Rena (SKE48) 13 – 28 votes – Fukuhara Haruka 14 – 22 votes – Kikkawa Yuu 15 – 21 votes – Morita Suzuka (Idoling!!!)
