What's the deal with anime portraying men as cute-looking?

>>158994592

Women are taking over the Otaku market. I have no statistics to back it up, but I think this is what KyoAni's analytics department is seeing.

There is no other explanation for greenlighting Free and these other anime with emasculated "men".

>>158994592
Nobody likes looking at ugly people.

>>158994666
>other anime with emasculated "men".
Or maybe you're a retard that needs to watch more anime. Those 'emasculated "men"' can be witnessed in many harem shows, which are plainly not targeted at women.
Please lurk more.

>>158994592
The increasing moefication of anime & manga.

>not wanting cute boys as MCs

what is wrong with you?

>>158994666
As a woman I agree. Idolm@ster is still obviously above all but girls will slowly rule over/take important part in the fandom too.
I can see changes in this area every year.

>>158994592
Oreki a CUTE

Japanese women want men like that, muscular men are seen as gay and crude.

>>158994592
because men can be cute anon
have you not noticed this until now?

>>158994592
Because Japanese boys look girly

>>158994592
So it's more pleasing to self insert as them, would you rather self insert as an ugly loser?

>>158994843
Fuck off roastie.

>>158994843
Fuck off, this site isn't for women

>>158994843
Yeah, I think it's sooner than we expect. I remember when my local anime club was exclusivly boys, now almost all of participants are girls/women. They are as fierce about their husbandos as we are about their waifus. I noticed that Utena to them was like NGE to us.

The Japanese seem to want to when it comes to their porn.

>>158994843
>>158995935
Not your blog.

>>158995935
>>158995719
Fuck off.

>>158995884
>The Japanese seem to want to when it comes to their porn.
Because it achieves its NTR impact. Cute boy NTring you? meh. Ugly sin NTRing you? it hits deep

She is s lesbian, she can post here then.

Girls taking over this industry is related to discussion as a obvious reason why men are less manly in anime nowadays and why cute boys doing cute stuff may be a new niche soon.

>She is s lesbian, she can post here then.
That's not how it works.
Anyone can post on /a/, but you are expected to not talk about yourself. That goes particularly for announcing that you are a girl.
Lurk more.

>>158996121
You're anonymous.

>literally defending ''GUYS IM A GIRL!'' type of post

>>158994666
Do you have even the smallest idea about the history of the medium?

>>158996164
>>158996219
She brought up her gender because it could explain why she had some knowledge in relation to subject. Don't get so fucking heat up over dyke
>we don't talk about ourselfves!!!
there's literally active "tell me about you life" thread rn

everyone knows boys make the cutest girls

And it's still a no-go.
>there's literally active "tell me about you life" thread rn
I sure hope you reported it.

>>158996121
You're right, I'm sorry.

>>158996446
Where is that thread?

Why do you think a guy with a plain face,short combed hair is cute?He looks boring as fuck.
This is his real life equivalent

>>158995964
Yeah, I went overboard. Sorry. I thought it could explain why I know a lot of about changes in the female anime fans community and all but it obviously didn't.
Sorry once again, I will think before posting next time.

>>158996709
Thanks for telling now I can report the thread.

>>158996857
It happens to the best of us.

Stop

I really want to look like an anime boy. Maybe then I'll be liked.

because cuteness is next to godliness

>>158996822
anime makes everything cute
besides they mostly look nice, not really cute though

Every harem MC should look like Tetsuo from Demi-chan.

>>158997642
he's very nice but too beefy for my tastes

>>158994592
So then he'd look good in the crossdressing moments and crossdressing fanart.

>>158996164
>you are expected to not talk about yourself. That goes particularly for announcing that you are a girl
there's not a single global or /a/ rule that prohibits that

>>158998100
Can easily fall under off topic. I once got banned from all boards for two weeks just for posting that I know a girl(female) irl. Some /a/ mods and janitors are wizardchan tier.

>>158994892
It's true. Not even gay.

My enjoyment of an anime increases 10 folds if the mc is a cute boy

>Cute male MC
>Deep voice, sounds like a 40 year old man

>>158999708
>VA looks like a 35 year old man who dresses like a 15 year old
