I am a simple man, I see ass and I hug react + vote for maximum pointsRin-Chan Campaign
Rindeed, this year the competition is intense. Many a waifu have been summoned to participate in this ungodly ritual that produces nought but salt, tears and bitterness that lasts a lifetime. Luckily one of these fine ladies has experienced victory in this ritual. Let the Rin-clan again rise from ashes and bandwagon ourselves to this route's Good Ending.

Background
I do not expect to have to delve deeply into the lore of this character, but we can cover some of the basics.
Rin is the successor to the prestigious Tohsaka family, one of the families responsible for establishing the Holy Grail War. Her family largely focuses on jewel magecraft, making it so Ufotable has to spend approximately 100k per fight scene she's involved with, which is about the in-universe value of her cheapest jewels. Though she lost her parents at a young age (because of her father's participation in the previous HGW), as well as her sister (who we do not speak of), being the independent lady she is, Rin-chan picked herself up and managed to look after herself.
Our blessed waifu Rin-chama features in all playable routes in the Fate VN's, in all of them as a protagonist though UBW, in particular, focuses on her, her view in and of the war as well as her relationship with Sherou. Whether one plays or watches all the routes, either way, the viewer spends enough time with Rin-chama to figure out why she's so desirable as a waifu. She holds herself and others to high standards, sure, but she works hard to meet those standards as well as protect those she holds dear. Her admirable upstanding nature as well as the slowly melting tsundere personality (not to mention her thigh gap) slowly unravel throughout the narrative much like a flower in bloom.
An example of this can be found in the very basic tenet of the F/SN franchise, the interaction between Sherou and the pickable waifus. It can be said that where Shero is the self-insert MC that is largely clueless about the HGW, Rin-chan is the "guide" that explains to the viewer the basic premise of the war, as well as procedures and protocols featured in the event. She takes you by the hand, but never drags you along. Sherou ultimately retains his agency (and plot armour fine) throughout, which makes theirs a meaningful relationship; neither is forced into the relationship, but they participate side-by-side, protecting one another as equals.

Personality
No discussion on Rin-chama pans out without mention of the tsundere personality type she all but popularized. Tsundere overall get a bad rep because much worse series trivialize the intricacies of this personality type. They are depicted as cold, uncaring, unmoving and sometimes violent people. Largely a bastardization of a personality type that has been turned into a quick and easy stereotype for some C-tier studios to add to their character cast.
Rather than a fixed type, the tsundere goes through a character arc that sees them move from the cold and perhaps tough 'tsun' part of their personality to the softer, warmer (in)side of their persona. Rin-chan goes through this process as well, which is how her relationship with Sherou blossoms. As someone who values agency and independency, Rin-chan is not one to smother you and demand you be exactly the way she desires you to be. Rather, her personality responds in earnest to someone with integrity and a clear conscience.
This is because her personality is somewhat torn between her family ideals of becoming a 'coldhearted and competent mage', and her own personal ideals of being 'a good person'. Though she often boasts she will do whatever it takes to win, ultimately, she cannot bear to witness senseless violence and wanton bloodshed. At heart, she genuinely cares for other people and simply doing the right thing. It is this contradiction in her heart that arguably makes her a pretty well-rounded character, and has us experience the difficulties as well as the payoffs of the decisions she makes throughout her time in Fate. This is also why she responds to her in-lore husbando Shero, as he embodies his ideals to the fullest, and lives life with his back straight (unless he's busy getting bent by stronger characters i.e. everyone in Fate with a pulse).
On the surface, she's cool, calm and collected, but she's a hedonist at heart with a playful streak that loves to tease her friends and fam. She has depth and nuance. The kind of person you'd be proud to introduce to your family. Also very nice legs.

Looks
Fortunately for Rin-chan (and unfortunate for our rep and image to outsiders), looks are a highly defining matter in this war! I doubt you will find Rin-chan lacking in this department, as she has inspired many a character to be drawn with pretty legs under short skirts. I'm gonna bother disrespecting you or your intelligence with this one chief, the images hopefully speak for themselves. She has both a prim and proper side to her, as well as some feisty spicy undertones.

Fun Fax
To round out this overblown campaign post, why not some cute and fun Rin-chan fax to round out this section:
She is born on February 3rd, like me!! If you have a zodiac sign you should vote her.
As a child, she once heroically stepped up to save her friends. That's the kind of loyalty you seek in a partner.
Her hobby is admiring her jewels. You're not expected to buy these for her as she's a strong independent woman who need no man to buy her jewels
Today is international panda day
