One Piece Popularity Poll: Boa Hancock Falls Out of the Top 10 — 5ch: ‘Her Votes Got Cut in Half, LOL’

Written by

In One Piece’s latest popularity poll, the Empress Boa Hancock (31) dropped from 7th place last time to 12th, falling out of the top 10 entirely. Even more striking than the ranking drop is that her vote count fell to less than half of what it was last time — sparking a wide range of theories on 5ch about why her popularity has cratered.

For reference, she was 7th last time.

I don't even know who Sabo or Carrot are.

No way, how do you not know Sabo?
3Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:38:32.33ID:6ZxUZRi/0
The fact that a woman like a Celestial Dragon (the story's ultra-entitled ruling class) was 7th place last time is wild.

Well she's got a rotten personality for an older lady, so…
Honestly, why was she even popular in the first place?

Funny how "the loser's son" is still popular despite dying such a pathetic death.

It's like Coil and Tashiro Masashi (a Japanese celebrity infamous for his drug-scandal downfall) — a real fall from grace.

390,000 votes last time, under 200,000 this time — Hancock's popularity has completely cratered, lol.
24Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:44:37.79ID:WOXT84UO0

Honestly this is the more shocking part.
Her popularity's in freefall.

Sounds like Oda really can't stand Hirata — well, not Sanji, but his voice actor Hirata.

He dislikes him enough to make a dressing-room noren (curtain) nobody asked for and just send it to him.

She's the type of woman who'll kick a cat and casually smash a statue some kid made.

Terrifying that someone like this was 7th place in popularity.
22Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:44:23.25ID:nVkqkCyXH

She's got an edge to her, I like it.

What an unpleasant character.
What was the author even going for with her characterization?
26Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:46:35.00ID:Hz9rH3OM0
Isn't it just nostalgic old guys who still like Hancock?
53Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:05:44.34ID:TzEfPYeg0
>>26
Isn't One Piece itself only read by middle-aged men and women at this point?
29Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:48:00.40ID:PKTb0dmZ0
How many years has it even been since she last showed up, anyway?
125Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 16:03:57.75ID:qUa8WUvw0

Last time was before Hancock's re-appearance in the story.
Once she actually came back, her popularity tanked.
35Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:51:59.35ID:FNCK7lXa0
It's not the 7th-to-12th drop that gets me, it's the votes getting cut in half lol
She's lost a ton of popularity, wonder why.
139Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 16:14:02.69ID:iW34PrLS0

Probably because she lost so pathetically to Blackbeard.
Ace and Law lost too, but at least they put up a good fight.
40Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:53:57.76ID:MloQhSeY0


I love how Blackbeard just puts her in her place.
45Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:57:15.34ID:on0UBt4N0
>>40
Guess in the end she's just another "woman" character, same as Nami and Tashigi.
84Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:35:19.36ID:yP5VyErN0

I hate Blackbeard, but that scene was oddly satisfying.
42Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 14:54:56.75ID:MloQhSeY0

Crocodile and Mihawk haven't had any screen time either, but they still beat Hancock, huh?
49Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:01:49.53ID:wACIYI/h0

Hancock's last appearance was the Blackbeard attack in chapter 1059 of the manga.
Since then, over the past 1-2 years, Mihawk, Crocodile, and Buggy have all shown up here and there.
69Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:24:07.22ID:bQM8VBIq0

The fact that Usopp is in the top 20.
72Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:25:51.51ID:E+2pZ/CQ0
>>69
The "fish" (Jinbe) that loses to Brook and Franky… lol
79Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:30:42.18ID:lQV7DpDG0
Why is Cracker so popular?
Shouldn't Katakuri be ranked higher instead?
81Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:31:42.48ID:y+DkhW2w0
>>79
Well, it's a ranking where Nami's in 4th place, so…

Aren't these results pretty much as expected?

Just looking at the rankings, it's actually a lot better than last time.
Would be even better if Hancock dropped to around 20th.
110Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:54:05.75ID:PJjyg2RX0
It's less about the ranking and more that her votes have completely collapsed.
Did people finally wake up to what a terrible woman Hancock is and turn on her?
114Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 15:56:23.92ID:spLrmlOY0
>>110
Looking at rank alone she only dropped 5 spots, but in reality her popularity's been cut in half, lol.
131Anonymous2026/08/23(日) 16:09:42.86ID:ckzR3pIH0

This probably did more to tank her popularity than the whole Uta thing.
