Most guys in shoujo/josei are pretty alpha, its only shounen (and seinen romance) which feels the need to make the male leads into giant weenies.

I think Shin and Ikki are also pretty alpha (Kent is a sperglord in the best way and Ukyou is just crazy). Toma's cage-thing is just so tiresome though. I don't care about my mailbox, dude. I can clean it myself.

That's because they're just huge archetypes. You've got the asshole for the bad boy appeal, opposed to the overly nice guy. Same reason you've got the cute moeblob opposed to the abrasive tsundere in shounen manga.
Honestly it's pretty boring, but some shoujo mangaka go so far to make the main guy an asshole it becomes comedic.

I agree she's a bitch and deserved it if that makes you feel better, but being alpha has to do with politics and human relations. Given the tightly knit society they depict in the show, acting like a brute towards a woman of prestige like that will just make people lose respect for him. He's shooting himself in the foot as far as having a position of power within the community goes.

You're not making much sense. News of what he did probably won't leave the house since it's unlikely for Benten to admit to others of having been humiliated.
And obviously Nodaime doesn't give a shit about Benten's opinion of him, he didn't even have any problem taking the piss on the Terama tengu that always suck her dick. He has the power to stand at the top.
>>
>>156386725
>He has the power to stand at the top.
The whole point is that his power won't last long if he keeps acting like a dick to everybody. Actually, facing the consequences of his almighty attitude is probably the direction the story is going to take him.

This actually pretty incredible. It's like they wanted to create cool alpha characters, but the writers were too socially crippled to actually know what an alpha male would say in any of those situations.
It's only missing a "m'lady" and a quote about atheism.

I think that's focusing a bit too much on one aspect. And his awkwardness is of a completely different flavour to your regular beta cunt; it's more like he just doesn't handle that stuff very well. Also, I don't think I would call that "support" ... As much as I love Souma's antics, they're probably counter-productive.

It's certainly true that 4 years is extreme, but I think that has more to do with the fact that it took that long for her to be ready for him.

Toma (the guy with the cage) isn't meant to be alpha.

Then he cleans your mailbox and its like "oh I'm doing it for you"

I LOVE bad boys and assholes, even really violent ones, but Toma is just shit.

Do you say the same to men who enjoy femdom?

Also bad boys are like the #1 most common romantic figure. There's a reason why the best selling shoujo of all time is HYD or why Diabolik Lovers has the success that it does, and isn't that "women all hate themselves". Get over it already.

>Do you say the same to men who enjoy femdom?
Yes

I know dickish love interests are pretty common in shoujo, but hasn't the number gone down in recent years? Most of these examples are at least a couple of years old or were popular in the 00s.

And the same can be said about still having gorilla women as love interests. Girls still look at tsunderes funny, and just because the archetype is made fun of doesn't mean they're not using it anymore.

I have no idea how you'd calculate "going down", there'd be way way too much arbitrary calculations involved (how do we count a dickish LI? does he need to raise his fists or threaten rape, or is it enough to call her an idiot and give her the cold shoulder? How do we account for increased output? Is there any survivorship bias when it comes to older manga that stood the test of time?)
There's definitely no shortage of bad boys now, but nor is there a shortage of lame weenie nice guys for women with no taste (like Kimi ni Todoke or Oremono or whatever).
Diabolik Lovers is still being milked for all its worth ( the most recent game came out just a few months ago), Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji only recently ended and got a live action adaptation, I'm all about Kurosaki-kun no Iinari ni Nante Naranai and that's ongoing.
Nothing has ever topped Hana Yori Dango of course, and that came out in the 90s (and is STILL getting adapted around the world).

You're probably right. My priorities are pretty low atm (natch) so I was thinking about trying to cram as much Japanese in before kids...but like, the odds of me sticking to it long enough to get anything out of it are pretty low. Someone said "oh stick with it a year and you might get to play some nakige". Hmm....

not to mention he pretty much DID do that. it's just she brushed him off and that's when he threw her out.

That would be the lamest most shit ending of all time in any manga. And Takumi has way way too much responsibility to let any feelings for Reira get in the way of his family. My opinion.
>>
>>156393325
>That would be the lamest most shit ending of all time in any manga.
Nah, the two Nanas are soulmates; even Hachi says it herself that there is no beginning without Nana. Of course this is just my opinion, but I truly do think her and Takumi will split once they reunite. The relationship between the two Nanas is the heart of the series after all. It was never about the men they were with.
>>
>>156387016
Except he's actually pretty amicable to people who don't try to fuck him over, so there's no real reason for the story to try and take him down a peg. It's also silly to say that his power "won't last long" when his power depends entirely on himself and not on any outside sources.

Yes, their relationship is the heart of the series. But there's zero reason for her and Takumi to break up, as its not a sexual relationship and Hachi's hardly one to leave her children out to dry either. She has a family now.

I mean, George/Yukari is the heart of Parakiss but at the end they are separated for good. Ai Yazawa is not the kind of hack who would write some kind of dumb pseudo-Nana/Nana end, especially when the rest of the manga tends toward bittersweetness and realism.

The adaptations were successful enough that Diabolik Lovers anime got 2 seasons and they are working on a 3rd stageplay (apparently the first 2 did get good reviews). Diabolik Lovers anime gets low ratings mostly from babies who don't like all the sadism and grimdark.

Correct. The "Alpha wolf" is just the dad and the "Beta wolf" his son. They have the same rights and the Beta wolf can fuck and do whatever he wants as long it didn't affect the group in a negative way.
The "Alpha male" like the people here think of wouldn't exist in a animal hierarchy, the Alpha wolf would thrown himself at first in danger to safe his group or at least give them time to run away, an "Alpha male" like Donald Trump for example would be thrown and drunk in his own piss.

At this point i'm not quite sure what constitutes as "alpha male" anymore, but the general trend from the thread examples seems to be confidence, won't back down to any type of woman, aggressive, lives by his own rules and gets all the girls horny.

I am confused. I don't consider assholes alphas. I mean you can be assertive, strong-willed, strong in body, skilled, educated and even dangerous and still not be a cunt about it. Being an abusive asshole is a negative personality trait no matter what. You usually don't want to punch the "alpha" dude into the face. You don't respect an asshole unless you are an idiot.

I guess these "bad boys" archetypes in shoujo (or even in female literature) are there because heroines can try to change them into the better person?
>>
>>156400694
>I guess these "bad boys" archetypes in shoujo (or even in female literature) are there because heroines can try to change them into the better person?

Pretty much. For all the gill they show at first most of these bad boys end up screaming the heroine's name in anguish by the end. Usually starts with them feeling guilty about the heroine being severly injured or believing she's dead and hugging her when it turns out she's okay. It's all downhill for their "alpha" traits from then on.
>>
>>156400694
Taming a wild beast is common in a lot of literature. You get your thrill from the fact that the love interest seems to be a person who can't be changed, but thanks to the power of unconditional love and very little actual shaping them up, they become less of an asshole towards MC only and then eventually cured of the problems ailing them.

It's popular in shounen too. See any tomboy thread, any gal thread. Neutered assertive love interests are common.

Heh, it's true that Yukitwinku McFagtron turns into some kind of badass by the end.

There's this guy, too. Goes to enemy capital in the middle of a war, hits on enemy female officers, feels up some kind of nuke witch's ass, and that's after we see him with several prostitutes at once. Oh, and he's a fucking general.

It's largely just a misguided version of what people think they'd like to be. Either the badass who can do as he pleases or The person who puts their lovers in their place while getting everything they wanted. Shoujoshit and shounenshit are bad about it, really.

This is stupid. Why should she pretend her friend isn't ugly? If she didn't say anything then she'd be the disloyal birch who wouldn't stand up for her friend.

Benten is a shitty person. I don't know why the protagonist is so enamored with her unless he's a vore fag.

Found and dropped in 3rd chapter. 'I am supposed to be mad but I can not refuse him' is a trope I can not stand.
