I don't think she, Naomi or Yona will ever be as popular as Rae, Cait and Lyriel simply because the latter three have normal bodies, and the former are walking fetishes.
I'd like to modify that, if I may: Rae, Cait and Lyriel do
not have normal bodies. They have idealized bodies which certainly would be considered underweight by a doctor. Of course many people like that, that's why so many popular actresses and models have a similar look, not to mention many popular love interests in games on this site - but it is just as much of a walking fetish. And I would bet if you just walked on the streets, you'd find more of Yona's general body type than Rae's.
More generally and not so much about Vertius' posting: Of course that is all okay, I also generally prefer "The Lyriel" to "The Naomi", and these are fantasies, so why not go for the best you can imagine?
Then again, I like a bit of variation. If Rae, Lyriel, and Cait wouldn't have very distinct personalities, I'd find them extremely boring, they'd be too close. Same could be argued for Naomi and Yona, of course.
However, a bit continuing what whichone has said: it is strange that in a game with 6 girls, of which 3 have a lot of content, 1 has some, and 2 almost none, the supporters of the first three complain that they're not getting enough bang for their (non) buck.
Calmly talking about how you still prefer the first trio to the second of course is fine, favorite LI and stuff is what this forum is about, but all this "game is ruined, gonna quit" on the last few pages is a bit overdone and feels like the tantrum of a small kid which can only get 2 different chocolate bars at the supermarket and not all. It's not so much the content of what is said as how some people say it (not all) that I find, well, cannot make my mind up. Fascinating? Certainly. Annoying? Yap, that too.
