I disagree. The chances of finding a real person of truly "good" characteristics (beauty, intelligence, good intentions, etc) is very slim. Its much easier to find in Anime because it is created by people. But if you ask me to choose between anime and a girl of equal appeal, I'll take reality.

Wow you posted a nice comparison picture where even the 3D real life babe had 2 pairs of big nice-looking "eyes". Thats kinda rare in real-life.

I'd think any guy would go for a real one, the problem is just getting hold of one.

I'd have to agree with Ken.  Judging with the way the ladies seem to treat guys in general, it'll be sometime, if ever, that a lady will make me feel truly content.  But I've got blood pumping through my veins, I'd sure like my significant other to be the same.

But... 2次元 are easier to find, and are always accepting and accommodating.  They don't hide behind their appearance, one doesn't look beautiful and is shallow on the inside.

When it comes to 3次元 you need to search harder and deeper.  Very often what is easily found and easily at hand is something you don't want or need. 

In my Otaku guise I have to say 2次元!

Besides, nothing man made could compete with what I have in real life.

Anime, videogames, etc. girls are mostly characterized by this wish for perfection in physical traits, character, etc. even when they got their own quirks (one having almost exclusively bad traits is usually a villain or an outcast who will improve herself greatly with time... rule of thumb).

It's really not easy to find a girl (in real life) who will be (fully?) compatible with you, that will accept you no matter what and that will stay by your side for the rest of your life (let's go for the full picture shall we!) but it does exist (of course the reciprocal part is essential in a healthy, durable, true, loving and committed relationship).

Even if the chances are slim, it's truly worth trying... but it's also vital to remain cautious at all times (falling in love with virtual girls may involve much less constraints and everything, but you can easily imagine that interaction levels are not the same!)

I just hope my girlfriend will be the first and the only one for me. I am ready for it, and no 2D girl will ever take her place in my heart.

And dreaming about female idols is nice and all, but if you want your significant other to be exactly the same, well... There are many more factors to consider when being in a relationship.

Danny, the answer to your question is easy since anime is a Japanese phenomenon... For the people here, the results would be surely different. Cultural bias? ;)

hahah..I will definitely prefer the "San Jigen". The "Ni Jigen" are ultimately just a figment of another person's imagination..though I believe "Ni Jigen" are cute, but ya can't have interaction with them. This will be different in the case of "San Jigen".

It all ultimately boils down to interaction.

How I wish anime character can one day become real life..Hahaha..thats I think fat hope for me...

2D moe charas are created to be escapist fantasies, so in that aspect they beat real people... but for this reason they become boring after a while. Look at the images, the anime girl is just like her twenty-thousand "sisters." Boooring. Real people are, well, real. Much better than blotches of ink. Plus, at look those eyes. Rawr.

Interesting! For me, I choose 3D. But to explain Japan's preference for 2D, it's gotta be a cultural phenomenon. I don't see a high percentage of Asian women in Vegas, which may reflect their "exotic" factor outside of Japan. At the same time, I don't think ALL women in Japan are smouldering as your 3D example, lol, so the never-ending multi-colored variety of 2D beauty might appeal to Japan. Maybe the Japanese know something we don't? :)

I know that the 2D versions are based on what exists in reality, but a while ago Iori Yoshizuki was all I could think about.
Ack!  Why can't all girls (and boys) be as purehearted as Yoshizuki~!

70 Percent?!? The 3D girl with the 'eyes' gets an unfair advantage.  If 2D was represented with 'eyes' you guys wouldn't be voting so unfairly.

Movies are better than real life.  
2D girls are better than 3D.  

2D girls, like any other entertainment or art medium, are escapist fantasy.  Our fantasies and fictions can tell us a lot about ourselves, but can never substitute for the real thing.  

3D is best, because reality is only inferior to fantasy if we do not choose to make the most of our reality.  Of course, Sturgeon's Law applies to women just as it does to anything else, so the key is to find a woman who makes the most of herself and her reality.

I guess you have to make yourself say that from time to time, otherwise its a long, expensive, road back to reality.

GAH! You had to ask this question x_x. While you can deeply relate to anime characters, they are just that- fiction. A real life person, who you get to know and have a relationship with, never plotted or scripted anything (lets hope!)

Hmm, for me, i will have to go with San-Jigen. Although i love to see all the moe and kawai, as well as cool ni-jigen characters, at the end of the day, a real human would still come out on top (that phrase could be interpreted very wrongly xP)and also, if there is a really nice human, atleats you have a chance of meeting them, but manga/anime will have to stay fictional :(

However, if you get a nice San-Jigen to dress up as a Ni-Jigen, then you can get the best of both worlds xD

Uh, wow.  Okay, true story.  A while back, Momotato once said that the anime version of Yamamoto Maria-san in "Komugi-chan" is hotter than the real one.  Ha ha ha!

Anyway, both have their ups and downs.  2D girls have the ideal personality.  3D girls have the fact that they're real.  Either way, you can't get everything you want really.  You can't become a drawing and you sure can't make a drawn girl become real.  Oh and cosplayer can try to mimic the magic, but it will not do so in the end, even if you have someone like Hikami Kyouko-san cosplaying as Ellis. --'
