No one cares about your taste.

>>150669626
Then please enlighten me with your superior taste I'm not trying to tell anyone to watch or like anything, it's called starting a discussion

>>150669667
None. They're all shit. Typing up walls of text to paint them as colorful won't make them good.

>>150669753
By they do you mean the MCs? or Harems in general?

In the case of the latter, as you seem to be implying you have watched several while hating every single one along the way; why do/did you continue watching then?

And in the case of the former; surely some were more shit than others, and some less so.

Ayato is literally worse than Ichika.

>>150670015
All of them.

Is strike the blood actually good? The girl in OP looks cute.

>>150670163
Then why do you watch them? Why didn't you just stop?

I've certainly dropped shit on EP1 and been like nope, not into that genre, and went and watched things I actually enjoy.

Stella a shit. A SHIT. Worst harem nain girl ever.

Don't know what to tell you other than I stuck with this series to read about how the protagonist would get through the plot and fight against the villains.

>>150670281
What are you new? For the girls, duh. That's a stupid question to ask.

Trinity Seven MC is pretty based. Still not in a "you can recall his name" tier though.

>>150670255
I wasn't personally crazy about STB, but I know its quite popular on this board, there are fairly regular threads on it. It's one of those things that I don't really remember a lot of details about except the MC and main girl, and it was fairly plot involved with less sol/comedy breather episodes and what not, but did have a pretty cute romance plot which actually does reach a fairly satisfying conclusion at the end (that might have been the final OVA, like I said, it's been a while since I watched it), It isn't one of MY personal favorites, but I'd certainly say it is worth watching on account of being quite competently done throughout (while I don't have any particular things I remember loving about it, I don't recall hating anything either) and fairly long and having as mentioned before a satisfactory conclusion, and yes that girl is quite cute in it, one of the things I remember was how she said sempai.

Pick one. He's the worst and most dense MC in that pic.

Jesus doesn't belong there. He's actually decent as a protag instead of being reduced to a harem MC.

>>150670387
What did you think about the MC of Cross Ange?

MC of Grisaia.

>>150670573
His density fucking hilarious though, he plays it so goddamn straight and has other moments where he's obviously not totally autistic and that just means he's gotta be faking which makes it even funnier

I think you may be reading too deeply into a fucking battle harem but I suppose that's your prerogative. Also it's been a while since I've seen someone associate harems, let alone battle harems, with the word 'hilarious.' They more feel like I'm giving myself a lobotomy.

Come on now.

>>150669319
I just don't watch harems, ever. I like girls, but not as the only reason to watch a show. I'd rather read manga or browse /c/ at that point. Anyway the girls are not much less bland and stereotypical than the MC, it's fucking pointless. I just don't bother at all. Only harem I ever enjoyed was DxD, and it was not as typical of harems, although it was still pretty bad.

>>150671016
Your taste is garbage. You may want to check into that.

>>150671016

Date A Live's protagonist stood out to me as the most generic harem protagonist in any work ever. He was so generic he wrapped all the way back to memorable.

>>150669319
Not every harem isa shitty school battle harem.

The World God Only Knows. MC is more memorable than any of the girls.

Is this due to the thought that a Japanese audience wouldn't be able to identify with a MC with non dark hair since they would seem very non-Japanese? But they are perfectly fine with the woman not being Japanese?

Can I like a harem protag because of his voice?

>>150671394
I feel like part of his personality got shafted in the anime. No, I don't read the LN, it's just a gut feeling. Like, I totally agree with you, he's so goddamn bland.

>>150671394
>Date A Live's protagonist
What kind of personality does he have? Refresh my memory again.

The MC is all the same.
They have nothing special, just ordinary people that have hidden super power.
Everything what they do in the plot is decided by their harem. They can't even decide thier own role.
But sometimes there's an exception like Seikon no Qwaser, or Mahouka.
But it still the same, basically it just shounen + panties, nothing more nothing less.

It's generic because he made it generic. You can't accuse the thing that started the trend of following the trend.

I agree. I always consider to watch a harem if I'm interested in the MC's VA. Damn if I didn't enjoy Index not only because of the absurdity but also because of Touma's voice which was relaxing to hear.

Also Bahamut's MC got a cute voice. Yeah I know it's a girl voicing him.

>>150671642
Hosoya's performance as Kusanagi Takeru was one of the things that made me a fan of Antimagic Academy. That and it looked better than its contemporaries Asterisk and Rakudai simply because of the fact that there was something on the line besides school pride in a tournament setting.

Harem anime idea: Combine 1 parts World God Only Knows, 1 parts Death Note, 2 parts Mirai Nikki, and 1 parts Overlord.

Result: Psychopathic MC uses his meta knowledge of being in a harem anime equivalent to manipulate the girls into helping him take over the world. Also the MC is Tsundere as fuck.

Kusanagi Takeru.

>>150673148
Yeah, Shimazaki is actually pretty decent VA, I like him in Saiki Kusuo, Active Raid and Tari Tari. It's just that he's forced to do his generic, boring voice for DAL's MC (and I think he's in Twintails too?).

The other harem MC voice I actually like is Shimono Hiro. No special reason I just find his voice moe as fuck.

Issei is, objectively, great for a harem MC. Certainly leaps and bounds above betalord faggots allergic to pussy. He at least actively seeks it out.

Hagure Yuusha MC was my favorite, bar none. I wish we had more alpha MC's just like him. It's a shame the show didn't do better.

DxD and Color Wars MC's are close runners up.

And not enough Goemon

The thread is clearly only meant to be about specifically the battle academy harems, so everyone asking/talking about other shows that aren't in that format should know that's why it's not in the list.

>>150676511
Nope. Japan doesn't care about her. Kirin, Julis, and Sylvia are popular.

Tenchi and Ah Megami-sama is the first harem animus but the girls are quite varied back then.

But Love Hina solidify and emphasised the Harem character stereotype.

Damn right. Alpha enough without going into gary stu territory. The MC's from StB, DxD, and Tomoki are also close.

Onii-sama: I'll never forget him. Mostly because of how shitty a MC he was. I felt like I was watching the animation of some shitty japanese self-insert fanfiction.

The niggers from Rosario + Vampire and the faggot from Shimoneta are tied for the most betas I ever seen.

>>150679445
>Koihime spinoffs
Realize that Koihime's games where you play the protag are way more popular

>>150669319
>Real talk, nobody watches harems (for long anyways) for plot or characters, it's for the waifus, the lewd, the cute interactions what have you.

Talk for yourself, I had never watched DxD just read the novels and they're great, the anime is dogshit that cuts content and adds fanservice trash.

The comedy is what makes me read them, then the amazing fights and then some more comedy along with myths.

I don't particularly care about the waifus because they're irrelevant really, Issei is the one that takes the focus, or Kiba does(in the anime he's a real secondary character but he always has POV chapters in the novel when Issei's not around and his character is well done).

For example Rias is never really useful other than issei sucking her tits or stuff like that, it's the guys that do the cool shit. I mean Issei vs Sairaorg beats any lewd scene in the series, Vali fights are amazing and I could go on but the point is that the girls never do anything that you can truly call important.

I like Sora no Otoshimono for the same thing, comedy. Also the fact that it was super happy and then really fucking sad

>>150670928

> Araragi never goes full edge vamp

such a fucking shame, Kizu was the closest we got, but he's usually freaking out too much in every fight to actually be able to look cool.

He had it with Guillotinecutter, but that barely even qualifies as a fight.

>>150679689
Read the OP again kid

This thread is about what you think about harem "MC" and I think that theyre complete shit and ruin what might be good story and then I just post example of story that get vastly improve by removing male MC

That alone makes it miles better than DxD, anon.

>>150679913
>and I think that theyre complete shit and ruin what might be good story and then I just post example of story that get vastly improve by removing male MC
Or maybe it's because you just hate males. Ever thought of that?

>>150679915
>That alone makes it miles better than DxD, anon.

Except it doesn't, because after the first time it happens it loses all the charm it could have and it shows, it keeps happening all the time without the author caring or making it a special situation so it becomes normal and boring.

To top that Testament has shit characters, shit story, shit fights, shit powers and shit world so all that's left is the fucking but like I said it gets boring.

If you want to see girls fucking then just read hentai and that's it, what's the point of smut garbage with trashy plot?

>>150679913
What needs to be said about it? The anime has 3 seasons while there's 7 games that's been out over the years.

>>150679888
>If fucking is a strong point then why has it been a successful series without any of it?
Because people want it. They're getting teased for it and they stick with it. The target demographic aren't the smartest bunch.

>>150679972
Don't bully the poor /u/fags. They didn't ask to be raised by bitter single feminist mothers with no male role models and ultimately brainwahsed into idolizing women and hating their own gender so much they actually want them wiped out.

The world building happens later on in the series and the story gets much better after they handle all the Mio shit. Beyond the lewds the series has arguably the best villain of any of these harem series with Shiba, and the Basara x Lar's bromance keeps shit interesting.

>>150685398

Rizevim in DxD was pretty good as a villain. Awakens a legendary monster that is stronger than Great Red/Prime Ophis (strongest beings in current DxD) that destroys much of Heaven, Valhalla and lays siege to Earth. His actions on releasing the monster leads to 'killing' off several characters from the rest of the series and he is responsible for a invasion war that happens 30 years later which fucks up the timelines, creating the BorN timeline. He also abused his son and grandson Vali when he was a child.
