why are most anime protagonist so fucking beta?
>>
Because of Shinji and Evangelion's success.
>>
Beta protag means more room for internal conflict
>>
cuz japanese guys are beta
>>
>>146428385
most anime fans are beta anon
>>
>>146428385
the viewer can self-insert better the more the protag lacks an active role
>>
Yukiteru was actually dauntless in the original timeline of Mirai Nikki. But Yuno's constant initiatives never gave him the opportunity to be a man.
>>
>>146428604
well that fucking bullshit
do you want to self-insert as a faggot who can't do anything but cry like a little bitch?

>>146428674
he should have just fucked her in the first instead of avoiding her like a little bitch
>>
>>146428714
well,you're never going to get the hot chick so what's the point?
>>
>>146428385
so the lonely guy watching can say to himself "I wouldn't be so beta, I would totally have sex with that girl who wanted to have sex with me" and then the lonely guy goes and buys all the merchandise.
>>
>>146428766
its fun when you have lucid dream tho
>>
>>146428385
Who gives a fuck? You're supposed to be self-inserting as the cute girls if you're a real anime watcher.
>>
>>146428385
Because they aren't American.
>>
>>146428385
Because most anime watchers are beta.
>>
>>146428385
So betas can relate to the MC.

again degenerate fucking faggot
i bet you love futa

That's why I'm slowly losing interest in the medium.
All the protagonists are push overs who are trampled over by girls. I'm not saying it's bad for characters to have flaws.
A good amount of flaws is necessary for a relatable character, a likable one
I'm just saying I wanna see more antiheros in anime, like Guts Lelouch or Light. I wanna see characters that do heinous and evil things for the sake of justice. Not that "if I kill them I'll be just like them" bullshit that's in every show.

>>146428735
Never put your dick in crazy

>>146428385
Because that's the kind of show you're attracted to.

so fucking true
thx anon

I would put my dick in anything that has a hole
no homo

Because you want the reader/audience to like and sympathize with the protagonist.
>>
>>146429044
Not him but Yes.
>>
>>146429465
i don't sympathize with betas i just want them to fucking die
>>
>>146429540
maybe JoJo is a better choice for you then
>>
>>146428385
Because they aren't as cool as real secret agents like Archer

You can sympathize with non-beta protags.

Guts for example.

Because no one in Japan these knows how to write an alpha protag that isn't an edgy asexual, a slightly chiller than normal blank slate, or Alderamin flavored tryhard.

I don't really get how that is possible... Is it the power of burger education?

My dick, my brain, and the part of me that finds this shit amusing are all fighting right now.
>>
>>146439380
Right? It's supposed to be complete trash(it actually is) that even managed to get banned on Batoto just because how mad some normalfags were.

But for some reason I keep looking forward to the new chapters every time.
