I went for above average. It's actually pretty easy to get carried away when drawing breasts on female characters

Does "Average" in this case mean average in real life or average in a typical anime/manga?

Well I'm a female, so my female lead would probably resemble me.

In manga, I like them to 'make sense' for the character. If the girl is, say, a serious athlete, it's generally rare to see a lot of fat anywhere on her, including her chest. Anything involving a first year highschooler or younger should probably be pretty flat-chested as well unless she's a gaijin exchange student because, well, the Japanese generally are not really even started filling out at that age.
It's all about context. You'll note that there are very few busty characters in shoujo or josei. I'm guessing that's because all five busty japanese female readers don't mind, but the more average kabe-onna would mind a busty lead. I always thought the impossible udders on lots of hentai and ecchi shounen were rather lame, actually.
And, for the record as a heterosexual old guy with a life, my personal preferences run toward the middle of the range, as I found there were examples that were both 'just too big' and 'it'd be nice if there were something there besides ribs.'

I honestly wish that more female manga characters were drawn with more typical breast sizes. I may be in the minority here, but I do not find unrealistically massive breasts to be attractive. Unfortunately, female characters in most manga either have breasts that are completely flat or ridiculously large.

I seriously hate female chara with oversize boobs. unrealistic and turn me off.
maybe because i'm flat-chested one.
the only exception is One Piece. Dunno why those big breast doesnt irritate me like other manga.

I would make a character with above average chest size because chances are I would be basing the character off of myself and I have above an average chest size. As far as chest size goes in manga I like it to be realistic for the most part. Overly large as well as overly small (on high school or adult characters) bugs me. If the plot is good I can for the most part ignore it.

Quote from SilverStorm
So, is the next poll about the penis size of our characters?
I really think it should be. I actually really am kind of disgusted by this poll, and some of the responses especially. As a woman with D-cup breasts, gotta say I really hate the way men stare and harass me because of it. Plus the assholes who often try to grope them and shit. It's probably one of the main reasons I can't read ecchi. too much of that shit endorses really shitty ass behaviour by men that comes way too close to a lot of the harassment and vile shit that i've had to put up with. I have to wear heavy sweatshirts even in the summer just to ride the city bus without feeling uncomfortable and even then I still have to put up with catcalling. It's enough that I have to put up with objectifying assholes in real life who reduce me to the size of my boobs, I really don't wanna be forced to read about them in manga or see a poll do the exact same thing.
Anyway, it's just so great to see a poll centered around both making fun of fat people and objectifying women so exciting to see how far society has progressed.

kind of agree.
If I were making a manga with a female character, her bust size wouldn't be something that I would focus a lot of attention on because it wouldn't be that important to the plot. Unless it was a hentai or smut manga. Either way, it would be a realistic size.

I like tiny breast cause it's often looks cute and even beautiful sometimes with slender girl, so I'll go with that.
Bwaaah!

I went with guy with manboobs. A love comedy parody involving such a thing would be awesome. Horror would work also...

The only thing I can say is that I did not expect a poll so low on this site.
I am disappointed. :/
