How do you feel about Togashi refusing to make female protagonists?

GOD

IS

I WANT TO FEEL THE TOUCH OF A FRIEND

No pointless fanservice, damsel in distress shit, having to hear constantly how she wants to catch up to the rest or that she's too weak. All that unnecessary shit, gone.

>>158090343
Instead is a fag who does it

As a kid I always thought that Kuruma (or was it Kurama) was a girl though...

>>158090073
Kurapika should have been female. There was literally no reason to make him a guy

>>158090483
There is. To make him a good character.

>>158090483
Could also have as said there's no reason to have any of them male except for maybe Gon, sounds just as dumb.

>>158090483
>Kurapika is female
>Gon doesn't befriend her because he's not interested in female friends
>Killua doesn't interact with her because he thinks girls have cooties
>Leorio tries to fuck her
Yeah sounds great, he really should have been a girl!

This might surprise you, but the overwhelming majority of shounen manga have a male protagonist.

WHO IS MADE OUT OF BOTH

>>158090380
THIS. KEK

>>158090073
Are you implying kurapika is a boy?

>>158090073
Looking back on yuyu hakusho, I liked the early episodes. The premise of the Spirit detective was what brought me in, the whole shonen fighting anime turned me off from it. I'm surprised I made it through the Tournament.

>>158093469
had the whole show been about him being a spirit detective i can't see how it wouldn't have become episodic and it wouldn't really have been a shonen anymore

>>158093967
>it wouldn't really have been a shonen anymore
What does that even mean?

>>158090073
Kurapika is cuter than any girl so it's okay

>>158090073
>Kurapika
>not female

>>158094000
shonens have progressing stories and world building; not episode to episode mystery solving

>>158094265
What do you think "shonen" refers to?

>>158094265
I don't think you know what shounen means

>>158094401
>>158094535
refers to a manga magazine that has only ever published mangas that fit the mold i just described

can we not do this please

>>158092612
>Gon doesn't befriend her because he's not interested in female friends
>Killua doesn't interact with her because he thinks girls have cooties
When has this ever been a part of their traits?

name a single good anime/manga with a female protagonist

Are you stupid?

There was no reason for him to be either gender.

>>158090073
c'mon, we all knew togashi is gay. all of his manga have that feel

>>158090483
If Pika was a girl, the only thing that would change is which doujin have the gender bender tag. Hell the manga about him as a kid even went so far as to say Kurapkia takes after his mother to a large degree.

>>158094265
>>158094667
You're fucking stupid and have no idea what shounen is. Get the hell out, newfag.

>>158090073
>Kurapika
>Kurama
>male

Right > Left

>>158094667
>>158094265
Shounen literally translates to "young male"

there' have been tons of manga in JUMP that have not been full on fight shit like even Death Note ffs

hate to be /a/ elite but you are extremely new don't talk about shit you don't know it makes you look really stupid.

>>158094667
>refers to a manga magazine that has only ever published mangas that fit the mold i just described
Yeah, all fits. Like episodic gag manga. Or haremshit.

>>158094667
Are you form reddit? Almost any other site I know will have people refering to SJW as "Jump", but redditors will call it "Shounen".

>>158090073
>males can identify with them
>females can fawn over them
It's a win-win

>>158094757
I don't know about Killua but didn't Gon say there was only one person in his village his age and it was a girl?
They never became friends though

>>158098139
There were never kids his age on whale island. We met with older women occasionally who taught him things, though.

Weird, don't remember her being mentioned at all. If he's calling her little she's probably a toddler though.
