>>268898819Ichigo is too based, and don't forget he married the bread girl, too based
>>268898819You forgot that also he's not a manlet
Literally who?
>having your mom die is no big deal, lolI had a messed-up childhood, but thankfully my mom didn't die during it. She's alive and well. It's worse to have your mom die than to have an abusive and neglectful childhood.
>>268898819
>>268898819>didn't have a messed up childhood, his mom died and he got over it, no dramayou fucked up with this one
>>268898819in other words BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIIIING
>>268898960What do you mean?
>>268898819Tl;dr: He has no personality.
>>268898819Lol, he's the Walmart version of Yusuke Urameshi.
>>268898982God, it's like it's 2009 again
>>268898996Better than the Walmart version of Goku, tbf
His arc is also pretty good. He starts out as a good hearted 15 year old who has been brought up well, but gains a ruthless yet still pure hearted side the more he accepts his instincts and love of fighting (white). His acceptance of OMZ is also him acknowledging the worth of his life instead of something that needs to be thrown away. He is the most mature shonen MC and is written as such. I also like how Kubo is most willing to shit on his characters for their beliefs and personalities than most shonen mangaka dare to do. Perhaps why Lost agent arc is one of my favorites.
>>268898996Yusuke was interesting until his series became dbz lite.
>>268898819>calmmaybe compared to some complete spazzes like luffy. ichigo has constant outbursts, he isnt calm>maturelol no>only does the shinigami stuff when he has to, prefers to live a normal lifehis monologue in the beginning of the FB arc is a contradiction to what he speaks of - he lied. he desperately wants power to win.>no dramahe copes well
>>268899580He wants power to protect his friends and family. That was why Ginjo and Tsukishima started targeting his friends in order to convince him to join the Fullbringers.
He was a pretty neat MC early on but over time his personality got weathered down to "must protec friend". He's inoffensive, but not anything to go nuts over.
>>268899966More like they exploited that fact about him. >>268900066Since day 1 has his goal with being a soul reaper been protecting his loved ones. What are you talking about?
>>268900066That was his personality from the beginning. He gained an edge over the course of the series.
>gay
>>268898819>calm and composed>mature>not an idiotthe first thing he did when they got to soul society, run towards the enemy base like they are in a picnic and not to save rukia
you just described all the reasons why he's boring, there's nothing larger than life about ichigo which is why he's bland and unfit to be a shounen mc
>>268898925It's not that it wasn't a big deal, the whole family just worked together to get over it.
>>268898819Being a cloud rip off will do that for you.
>>268900232Just like a typical embarrassed teenager. He tries to peek at Rangiku's boobs later on.
>>268900365What?
>>268900311He is going over to the soul reaper district to look for Rukia
>>268898819Sorry bro but >>only does the shinigami stuff when he has to, prefers to live a normal lifeWrong>>didn't have a messed up childhood, his mom died and he got over it, no dramaWrong>>mostly makes decisions based on reason, not emotionWrongIchigo is still my favorite MC
>>268898819>>not an idiot"Sorry i wasn't myself during this fight, cut me up before we fight again (and thus ensure your certain victory) so we're equal"
>>268900780Ichigo really hated his hollow at this point
>>268898977he didn't had a troubled childhood but his mother death tortured him until the final arc, he always blame himself too much because of it
>>268900311OP BTFO
Early Ichigo is based, then he started becoming less and less relatable.
>>268900780That's no being an idiot, that's him being emotionally unstable due to what happened
Modern manga MCs are pitches or children in general.It's why I've turned to Korean webcomics. Greatest Estate Developer and Ember Knight are among my all time faves.
>>268899080so before the third volume?
>>268902196One of the top anime this season has a protag who's a 32 year old man.
>>268898819>boring>no character development>no goal>only one move>one of the best shonen leads of all timebleachfags man...
