For best viewing of graphs, I suggest opening the images in new tabs.
The above image (a marriage of the Aww Yea Guy and I Came memes) acts as an "iCame button" on the side of every post on popular Rule 34 website rule34.xxx (which I obviously can't link). Users can "cum on" an image once daily. The site keeps tallies on the characters tagged on these images and runs a leaderboard of the top 100 iCame characters (whose totals run since, I assume, the feature was added). In honor of No Nut November ending (well not really, I just happened to get the idea at this time), I thought I'd gather some stats on these 100 characters and see what's what. I know normally my stat posts pertain strictly to KYM, but these characters and properties are many of the ones I often see here (lewd or otherwise), so I figured the interest overlaps. "Well why not post it on their forums?" I realize we're all degenerates here, but I'm not really a "member" of this or any porn community. I'd rather post this somewhere I at least have a presence.
All data from the site I retrieved on Thanksgiving Day (while dutifully distanced away from my family members who of course I would've otherwise been enjoying dinner with :^)), that being the number of tagged images each character has and the list itself of iCame counts (which I also archived on the Wayback Machine). Here's the full list:
.
You might expect the more cum-worthy characters to have greater numbers of images, but there seems to be no correlation (in fact, the opposite looks true, but only very slightly). This is the only time I take the image numbers of every character into consideration.
.
The next few charts will have variants of this basic bar graph which I hope is self-explanatory. Here the top 17 are labeled, but others will be depending on each graph.
For gender, the "N/A" category usually applied to species or races that can be male or female. The dominant gender should come as no surprise.
.
Next I looked at the franchises each character belongs to. Note that if playable characters in Super Smash Bros. games counted in that franchise instead of their own separate ones, it would be #1 with 14.
.
I also noted the franchise types, that being the main media form each one is known for. I counted anime separate from cartoons and manga with anime (separate from comics). This is the only area where the top category by number of representatives is different from the top category by iCame totals.
.
Now for the burning question on everyone's mind: how many of these characters are legal? I considered adults those who are at least 18. For teenagers and especially those who "seem" like they could be adults if you had no idea, I labeled them "older minors". The danger zone of "young minors" is for those 12 and under. The remaining "N/A" category is for those who belong to a species with no analogous age range to humans (unless they're pretty clearly young or mature) and those who I couldn't find an official age or satisfactory speculation (like some Fire Emblem characters).
.
Now for the other anthropomorphized elephant in the casting room: how many of these characters are human and how many otherwise? I didn't divvy up into various furry or fantasy creature subcategories, only human, nonhuman, and "N/A" (just for the meta tags "original character" and "character request"). Those not technically purely human but with a mostly human body form I counted as human (though perhaps this should've been another category).
.
The last factor of this kind I counted was whether the character originated in the Eastern or Western world (which, in effect, became Japan and everywhere else, mostly the U.S.).
.
Finally, I took note of the year each character was introduced. The only character from earlier than 1980 is Betty Boop (1930).
.
Observations and conclusions:
1. The top 11 characters (except #9, Betty Boop) are from American adult animated series by Matt Groening (mainly The Simpsons) and Seth MacFarlane (mainly Family Guy). The top 10 are the only ones with over 100,000 presses. However, they don't rank highly in terms of tagged images. This implies that, while there's not a particularly big contingent of porn artists for these shows (at least not as much of it's being posted there), there's a large, dedicated sect of people consooming and cooming to it.
2. Most characters are from the 2000s, then the 2010s, the decades millennials, and now zoomers, would have grown up with certain characters and have nostalgia (and first crushes/sexual awakenings).
3. Thankfully, 71 of the characters are either adults or in age/ethical ambiguity (and more often broach questions of zoophilia than pedophilia). Of the remaining 29, most of them are in a moral gray area depending on how old you are and what your or their "personal" age of consent is (it's different all over the world for a reason). Only 7 are clearly off limits as prepubescent children, but it's concerning that Lisa and Maggie Simpson are #2 and #10.
4. I know, once upon a time, KYM was primarily a hub for matters of horse, so I think it may be of interest to make a shortlist of how the "Mane 6" characters stacked up.
• #39. Rainbow Dash (14,967); #6 in images (13,610)
• #52. Twilight Sparkle (11,537); #4 in images (17,191)
• #56. Fluttershy (10,680); #5 in images (13,981)
• #66. Applejack (9,537); #14 in images (10,441)
• #76. Rarity (8,263); #10 in images (11,986)
• #80. Pinkie Pie (8,044); #12 in images (10,783)
5. The top 3 "characters" in terms of image totals are meta tags: "pokémon species" with 75,976 (#88 with iCame count 7,582), "original character" with 62,286 (#38 with iCame count 15,060), and "character request" with 24,709 (#75 with iCame count 8,350). At #4, Twilight Sparkle is, from what I can tell, the single character with the most images on the site. What confuses me, however, is #7, the highest non-pony single character: Renamon. I'm mostly unfamiliar with Digimon, and I know it's a pretty big furry icon (I guess), but is Renamon really that popular fap material, more so than anything else? I would think several Pokémon species have more images than it, but not the case.
6. It's impossible to gauge how many iCame presses are genuine and which are joking, ironic, or even due to raids. I can only imagine most of the 9,794 "nuts" busted to Mary Lee Walsh from Chris-Chan's Sonichu comics (with only 22 images) are for those reasons. I would hope a good portion of the Lisa and Maggie Simpson presses result from them too. And I refuse to believe 221,560 sperm cells (let alone loads) have ever been spilt in earnest to the #1 spot, Meg Griffin. Come the fuck on. This shit is rigged.
