Where's the option for Liberty's new pilot? New pilot is totally Ghost Maray.
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

As I’ve stated before, Icari is much to my dislike regressing at a dangerously high rate as a character.
We’ve reached a point where she’s completely defined by an archetype and is losing all the qualities that made her interesting to me in the first place. Going back, she used to have a composed, cynical and cool/badass attitude with pieces of “tsundere” shining through regularly. She also used to be capable, determined and above all observant.
Remember the times in MoA where we actually had normal conversations and Icari was capable of seeing through Kaytos act warning him to not have a breakdown. Well, now in Return she suddenly isn’t even capable of having a normal convo., constantly stutters around, and behaves like an autistic brat. The dynamic between her and Kayto is straight-up terrible and one sided. Almost every single convo. escalated in a completely one sided banter, which felt like a grown man beating up a child with a stick. Icari never managed to come back with a cynical remark, like she usually did, to at least make it more of an even playing field, she just got shrekt. This wasn’t “cute”, but rather sad and pitiful to be honest.
This is not the character that has grown on me, and I will not vote for Icari. (Hm… Maybe I should help out Vaen with Sophita this time…)
To my comrades: Icari’s condition is getting worse and worse, and I can’t really identify with what she represents by now. She has become an empty shell of her former glorious self. If this trend keeps on going, the mighty General Blackhead has no other option and will step down and retire.

I also find the criticism about Icari valid, though I didn't feel as strongly about it because I felt Icari's romance was the smoothest in the game. Of course, it may be made simpler than the others by the whole tsundere gimmick, but credit where credit is due.
Still, though it's not as if Icari's character is completely degraded, I think her off-screen feats are still remarkable, but it is true that she does seem to be heavily flanderised whenever she does appear on screen. At the same time, I think [RE]turn should be cut some slack for this, since it seems that it was designed for romance in mind, so playing Icari up to her most memorable 'moe' trait is understandable.
But really, Imouto route, now and forever.
Incest is Wincest.

I still think Ava is without doubt the Alpha Waifu of Sunrider, because she has to keep order aboard a ship of some rather interesting characters.
But I do agree Icari's romance route was the smoothest of the others, which also helped that Kryska's moments in it were just down right funny at times.

Wait... How about unknown pilot-kun who (surprise!) might actually be a girl and assigned to the Liberty because of how popular she's become?

So far I only finished the Sola routes in Return complete. But as much as I enjoyed her adventures with Shields and admire her and the Seraphim I still had to vote for the character I like more and who besides of the prototypes surely has a hard time in the Sunrider brig. Poor Cosette-chan, she and the Havoc are still forgotten in the brig and in the hangar what a waste of firepower as Kryska indicated it.

There is only Ava. Ava for most competent Waifu. Ava believes you in every route. BELIEVE IN AVA. AVA BELIEVES IN YOU.

Life becomes quite convenient when you cherry pick your own version of Kayto to side with. Do note that I have no bias towards either Sola or Ava being in first place. Totally neutral here.

I believe you are referring to the fact that while Ava supports the future Kayto, it goes against the Past Kayto. Right? I believe this is because Ava is a girl who knows Kayto more time, and can recognize when this is acting differently than normal. Then I see that it takes the side of the future Kayto, going against Kayto the Past, because he sees the Past Kayto is going the wrong way. And not always support a person is to agree with his actions. Sometimes we have to contradict a person who love to try to prevent them from commenting a serious mistake.

Well seeing as i'm too much of a sap to get all the non-happy endings, I feel i'm not qualified to vote here. So i'll vote for Kuushana again. Yeah I know she doesn't appear in [Re]turn. Fight me!

You would think the Icari's cult be storming this poll and picking their Goddess.

You would think the Icari's cult be storming this poll and picking their Goddess. Yeah, not really. Seems like Icari gathered massive minus points in Return overall. When even founders of said "cult" stop voting for her, there might be something going in the wrong direction.

Twin Tails Banzai!
Still going for Asaga. My ace has my heart.
Plus I did Asaga's route first, and with the way that Re[turn] is made/structured the first route you play is likely to have the most impact.

The new Liberty pilot. Is totally Chitose Karasuma. I mean, even their introduction and mannerism (from what I could see) was similar. That said, IN THE NAME OF THE HOLY RYUVIAN EMPIRE!

While I still think Sola is the most interesting character, I cannot help but feel that Cosette was _vastly_ under-represented in LD. She barely makes a cameo in LD even with optimal choices for engaging with her, and doesn't feature at all in RT. IMO is the 2nd most interesting character in the series and really should have featured more heavily, especially if Kayto's choices were such that they increase her affinity.

Eeeh, it's true that Icari seems a bit flanderized. I still like her, because her, Kryska, Ava and Sola greatly helped me remain sane during the events of Liberation Day, but... yeah, she seems to have lost something since Mask of Arcadius.
As for my vote, I'll stick with Sola, though as always, Ava is a close second.

Ghost Maray needs to step up her game. Not gonna argue with the top pick though. Like, when is Ava not helpful. She always has your back, 10/10 great XO.

I believe the Ghost Maray that appeared at the end of Liberation Day, was only hallucination Kayto... I begin to suspect that Samu-kun put some "tips" in [RE] turn (Not canon) that Maray actually survived the attack Cera and currently is part of the resistance of the people of this planet (In the history canon). I wanted to see adult Maray again. (Onegai Samu-kun, yoroshiku onegai shimasu.^^)
