Why aren't there very many complex male characters in contemporary anime?
>>
>>155860291
Because they don't have tits and a cute smile?
>>
>>155860291
For the same reason there aren't many complex anime characters, period. It takes skill to write them which your typical LN hack doesn't possess.
>>
>>155861272
also theres no money it since japan just like harems
>>
>>155860291
There are not many complex characters in anime. Try manga instead.
>>
>>155860291
male characters are made for self-insertion mainly

This is a joke. What manga characters actually have more depth than the best anime characters?

>>155860291
Can't self insert

Name a male character more complex than this.

>>155866601
Goku.

I found space brothers weird.
It went on for like 100 and something episodes, and it was able to keep character from becoming mundane or degenerating, while most anime characters degenerate after something like four episodes.
>>
>>155860291
Still more of them than complex female characters.
>>
>>155865084
Hibito is a creep
>>
Because the vast majority of humans aren't complex, including myself.
Why would you think that actually complex character would appeal to simplistic people?
>>
>>155866601
>UWOOOOOOOOOOO SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!! MAGIC IS NOT REAL I WON'T BELIEVE AAAAHHH IT'S USELESS IT'S ALL USELESS
Nah he is just a retard
The fact that he somehow gets convinced that everything was his fault and Beatrice did nothing wrong, while forgetting the promise of coming back to Ange in less than 1 chapter ruins whatever complexity he had
>>
>>155860291
because you're either shallow or you're not looking hard enough

Mutta is special.
>>
>>155861165
Speak for yourself, loser.
>>
>>155860291
Mutta is a decent character but he certainly isn't complex.
>>
I should really get caught up on Space Brothers.
>>
>>155869220
>magic isn't real
he's right though
>>
>>155860291
There aren't many female either but when complex characters do come around they change the dynamic of the show for the better usually.
>>
>>155861165
But Mutta has a cute smile
>>
>>155860291
Males don't sell. Unless they're bishies.
>>
>Mutta
>complex
he's just a goofy manchild who wants to follow his dreams like a shounen protagonist

Kill yourself.

Anime is inherently sexist and objectifies the male gender. We need more meninists fighting the current and getting us some well-deserved representation.

Totally anon. The medium known for the idea of fan-service is what objectifies males.
