Is Rohan the only self-insert done right?
I dont know of any other self inserts really. Rohan works because his goals and intentions are the same as Araki's, but the way he does stuff is different. Whereas Rohan is uptightand a bit rude, (from what Ive heard) Araki is a very mild mannered nice guy who said that he drinks his coffee even if eraser shavings fall in it.
I think what Im trying to get at is that a self insert shouldnt be literally you, as you probably wouldnt make a ln interesting character given that you are real. A self insert should share goals and motivations, but thats about it. Sorry for the autistically long response
