Nina Moriko (My Story)
A tsundere from My Story. Nina and Taro are childhood friends. While she is spunky, competitive and argues with Taro a lot at first she becomes more loving warm-hearted and caring as she matures. Nina and Taro develop strong feelings for each other, despite the obstacles they face. Also, Taro has suffered the loss of his father while Nina has suffered the loss of both parents and both realize how much they need each other and no longer sad, lonely, or depressed, and are happy and stronger by each other's side. Nina changes more and becomes a more likable character which is why she wins over Chitoge Kirisaki.
Louise de la Valliere (The Familiar of Zero/Zero no Tsukaima)
Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere is a second year student at the Tristain Academy of Magic and a terrible mage. She is the third daughter of the noble la Valliere family. While it takes her a while to admit it, she falls in love with Saito Hirage, the familiar she summons.
Haruhi Suzumiya can be funny, eccentric, and even unpredictable. She is interested in aliens, time travel, and does not care for "ordinary" human beings. Haruhi creates a parallel universe to deal with her emotions. She takes an interest in Kyon and gets angry and jealous whenever he talks to other girls.
Stella Vermillion (Chivalry of a Failed Knight/Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry)
One of my favorite tsunderes, though she's a neo-tsundere who changes a bit faster. While fiesty and hot-tempered at first she becomes kind and caring. While not thrilled about sharing a room with Ikki Kurogane at first she grows closer to him and the two develop feelings for each other. She pushes Ikki to become stronger and fulfill his desire and wish.
Madoka Ayukawa (Kimagure Orange Road)
A classic 1980's tsundere her design was inspired by actress Phoebe Cates and Japanese singer Akina Nakamori. She is a smart and talented high achiever with a mature figure but also has a reputation as a young delinquent. Upon meeting Kyosuke she reveals a kind and selfless personality and progresses her relationship with Kyosuke. This was a hard fought battle but Madoka advances because of her nadeshiko ("perfect wife") qualities.
Taiga Aisaka (Toradora)
One of the most well-known tsundere, Taiga Aisaka earns the nickname "Palm-Top Tiger" for her small stature yet fierce hot-tempered personality. However, she shows to be a kind and loyal person. While she initally had a crush on Yusaku Kitamura she develops feelings for Ryuji Takasu. Taiga is by far the more recognizable tsundere so she easily takes it from Asuka Langley.
Probably one of the most lovable tsunderes. While initially cold and feisty towards Yuji she develops feelings for him and shows how much she cares about him. Shana makes one of the biggest changes in any character I've seen going from cold, cruel, and angry to being warm, kind, and caring. Shana is also an iconic tsundere like Taiga she wins by a landslide against Chitori Kaname.
Victorique de Blois (Gosick)
Victorique is a 15-year-old student at Saint Marguerite Academy and has the appearance of a doll being very small in size. She is very intelligent and lives her life as an enigma. While initially cold and easily annoyed, she warms up to Kazuya Kujo and cares deeply about him. Victorique and Kujo develop feelings for each other. This was a close battle but Victorique wins by a hair for her kawaii and cutness and becoming more lovable.
If there is someone who you think should be an honorable mention, please leave a comment! Please read Round 1 if you haven't yet! Check back to see the results. I will probably another tournament with male tsunderes and My Story as well.
