How Ironic is it that Sonya is now one of the most commented character threads? Much because this one?
Now, more seriously, not commenting on Sonya specifically, but char threads don't have, necessarily, big merit on how "wanted" a character is; and TYM in general, is not representative of character popularity.
Personally, I'd love to see a LOT of characters who are probably NOT gonna make it, but, still, I wish everyone did not talk about their personal wishes as categorical truths.
It's almost never a "singular opinion" and always what "everyone" or "no one" wants.
