NOTES ACCORDING TO WEBSITE:
I. FIRST POPULARITY POLL
- The First Popularity Poll was conducted during the FIRST 7 VOLUMES of the manga, so the characters appeared on those volumes are only up to delinquent Mitsui and his gang.
- The time when the serialization of Slam Dunk in Jump was also the era of the popularity of Be-Bop High School, a gangster themed manga. This may explain the reason why Yohei was so popular.
II. SECOND POPULARITY POLL
- The Second Popularity Poll was taken during the match against Sannoh.
- Because of his backstory, Mitsui climbed up from #18 to #2.
