Do all girls start as "seasonal waifus," or can you tell if a girl is going to be a flavor-of-the-month or have lasting popularity from the beginning?
Do all girls start as "seasonal waifus...

Nicholas Edwards
aye
Juan Ross
if her design and personality are unique enough she will probably be remembered
Samuel Richardson
Only manic pixie dream girls are seasonal waifus by default.
Connor Morris
Example of seasonal waifu:
Hestia, Hotaru, Nadeshiko etc...
Example of waifus who will be remembered in a decade:
Megumin, Azunyan, Kuroneko, Senjougahara

There is no such thing as lasting popularity, just a few autists that refuse to let go. Once they stop being relevant they will be forgotten except by said autists.
Ayden Myers
>Rei and Asuka fans are "a few autists"
Dominic Brooks
In that case it's a bunch of autists wanking characters from an anime that has one of the most established fanbases on this site. Also Anno can't stop miking Evangelion so it somehow stays relevant.
Xavier Hall
you're thinking about this wrong
waifus arent about popularity, only seasonal waifus are
waifus are about autistic connections that last forever
Michael Wilson
Who are seasonal waifus?
Blake Robinson
That bunny girl from discount monogatari
Jace Anderson
The most Sure fire way for a girl to avoid flavor of the month status is to have another girl released around the same time who's similar enough, but reaches a different niche.
Creating a mutually beneficial fandom.
One will outlast the other, but both will benefit immensely.

finally someone gets it

Fuck off, outsider.

'seasonal waifu' is a negative term
pretty much any girl from any harem series, any popular slice of life, and shoujos with any popularity can easily fall into this
but that isn't to say that a 'seasonal waifu' can't also be a proper 'waifu' to someone
a lot of waifus aren't popular, but some are
once again, it's not about how popular they are to people
it's about individuals with autistic connections to those characters.
Easton Harris
"seasonal waifus" just develop into meme girls of they are popular enough. The reason "waifus" is dropped is because people stop posting "she's my new waifu" and instead just create low quality threads with her.
Joshua Myers
How many "meme girls" have actually ascended their meme girl status?
Lucas Hernandez
None
Matthew Davis
Ascended to waifus? Probably none. Ascended from seasonal meme girl to all-time meme girl? Well, Aqua for example.
Jeremiah Bell
once a meme always a meme
the idea of 'ascending' doesn't make sense because it's an entirely separate thing
Owen Torres
This post doesn't make sense on any level.
Nathaniel Gomez
Hoturo is not seasonal. There’s a thread at least one a day. Her design is just that great. Too bad her show is mediocre.
Eli Young
How does a girl ascend to waifu?
Alexander Bennett
I wish everyone but me would completely forget my waifu. None of you fags can even remember her correctly for what she actually is instead dumbass shitposting so none of you deserve to remember her.
Jayden Rogers
We got an angry boy here
Sebastian Cruz
is she hot
Blake Lewis
Yes.
Ryan Taylor
Only the passage of time can reveal the haves and have-nots.
Jack Reyes
If she was actually worth her popularity, people would have cared before the anime came out.
The source material had been available for years.
William Taylor
It was obvious after the first episode that Satania would be a hit.
