Bayonetta was my vote and even though she made sense at the time, I had given up hope. I was so hyped when she actually made it in!!I voted Kyle Hyde and he's just a spirit. He'll probably never be playable in Smash.
If there was a ballot today my vote would be Neku from The World Ends With You.
I'll gladly settle for a Neku Mii costume and TWEWY music.

Still no Sora from Kingdom Hearts. Everyone says it can't happen.
I'll continue to dream.
Basically it comes down to "something something Disney not Square Enix" and "Disney don't want their characters in a fighting game which is why Sora isn't in Dissidia even though the Dissidia director wanted him in."I don't know how Sora can't make it in he's had a few Nintendo exclusive games.
There's also the concern of the licensing of Sora (Ex: music rights, streaming rights, keeping Sora on the eShop indefinitely, etc.). It's not impossible, but it'll probably be harder to negotiate with Disney than even Square-Enix. But if Nintendo can get past Disney, the rest should be smooth sailing.Basically it comes down to "something something Disney not Square Enix" and "Disney don't want their characters in a fighting game which is why Sora isn't in Dissidia even though the Dissidia director wanted him in."
Those are the two reasons I generally see, but with more characters coming beyond the Fighters Pass I'm holding onto hope.
