Pretty good debut for Yamato.
Imo, she has some characteristics that could attract OP fans:
- Character wise, she is quite logical, brave, and no-nonse type. On the other hand, she also has soft and warm side as a woman too.
It is pretty refreshing to see female character that has combination of those quality (warm and nurturing, but also pretty logical and no-nonse).
- Powerlevel wise, she is strong.
- Physical appearance wise, she is pretty and probably has tanned skin (no wonder she could rapidly becomes fan favorite in any region outside Asia).
- Yamato may also win LGBT's attention since she address herself as a man.
With those characteristics, I could see why Yamato suddenly become so popular in Global Poll.
