I really hate miaka! she's too childish, and stupid. she doesn't really understand what she have to do till somebody tells her to do this and that. Takiko seem to be more mature, but i didn't read to much of gembu kaiden... i'm waiting for the second volume to be out!

sometimes she would always get herself into trouble for no stupid reason. especially when she went to Nakago. I think that she's Gullable. And her eating obssesion is retarted but still funny. lol i liked the series over all tho.

Keiko

I pick Miaka, although she always need her warriors help, but she the only who is not afraid of Suzaku who going to eat her when she summon him. Because she has stronger will than the other three miko. She has good ending in the end while Takiko(Genbu no miko) and Suzuno(Byaokko no miko) has a sad ending.

Although Miaka may look stupid or something, but this cause the anime or the manga to be funny and interesting.

I prefer Takiko. Even though she does not have a good ending, her character is much tougher than miaka. Plus.. She can defend herself.. (though not always successful and Rimudo would be there to safe her..) LOL

Miaka and Takiko. I would have to pick both. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses. Neither is stronger than the other (although the misconception is that Suzuku is the stronger of the four beast gods).

i think i prefer takiko more.. because she as a person is stronger than miaka.
miaka's story is more of romance and stuff..
