>>273619856This
>>273619778You shouldn't give a shit about popularity /a/.
>>273619778I like Dandadan but I fucking hate Okarun so much
>>273619778Maka was pretty cool too. The series should have been her and Kid being partners. Soul wasn't much of a character and Blue Naruto sucked even when he leveled up after killing the samurai guy
>>273619867>>273619856She lost, get over yourselves
>>273621599>I only support someone that wins
>>273619778Is this the most chuuni and cringeworthy thing Japan has ever come up with?
>>273620867I think you didn't read the manga
>>273622064Which is weird.I can't see how any anime watcher like Maka, who was nothing but a cunt.
>>273620867Maka is a shitter
>>273622294Not that much, she didn't developed as character yet, but her strong aura was already present since the beginning. The way she fights, the way she never gives up and the way she accepts her weakness most of the times. That's what makes Maka strong.
He was even cooler than Kid and his storyline was tied directly to the overarching theme of madnessEven became a father by the end although i cannot imagine how utterly nightmarish the life of his kid is going to be with parents like this
>>273619778Ohkubo does it on purpose. He has some obvious favoritism toward nipon banzai characters and Knights.
>>273620524Jiji is an awful obnoxious character who is useless at best and an active detriment at worst.
>>273622604Stein is cool but he's not more popular
>>273619778He's not a side character.
>>273619778Iris in Pokemon Best Wishes. She should have been the MC of Gen 5. She accomplished her regional goal (becoming a Champion) while Ash continued jobbing for more years until gaining a plot shield out of nowhere. Unfortunately shilling the mascot means he still had to be centre of the series.
>>273623465Mf deserved a 3rd season, he hard carried until the last chapter
>>273620867Imagine not liking the mad lad.
>>273619778>>273620867itt anime onlies
>>273621599Everyone lost.
>>273619778He is one of the protagonists.
>>273624656This. Black Star is what Naruto would be without the gay, but more swag. He's Naruto but actually based
>>273620867>Not liking BlackStarDo you have brain damage?
>>273623510as it was written in the leaks, they argued a lot about erasing Ash from the series a long time before gen 5. Sadly the majority had autism and no balls and decided to keep him as MC for 70 years
>>273619778>ITT: side-characters that are cooler and more popular than the main characterWhy did you post a main character then?
>>273622807Well, he is a self-admitted Nihon nationalist.
>>273625109Yeah, he was a beast and didn't really give a shit about morals and bullshit.
>>273623043>>273625513Maka is the main character
>>273625616>anon doesn't know that a story can have more than one main characterMaka, Soul, Death the Kid and Black Star are all main characters
Can't not post this one.
>>273620867This is a dumb thing to say, Kid can't be the same character if he was Maka's partner. The thing about Soul Eater is that Soul and the others ARE weapons. That's why the meisters like Maka, Kid, BlackStar are the ones with more agency and presence.
>>273625648Maka is the MAIN main character
>>273625648true, but Maka was the most important of the trio, sooo this makes the other two side main characters?
>>273625719>>273625720kek your kidding me
>>273625750>anon still doesn't know that there will be inevitably a centric character for a seriesKeep coping. Maka lost to Kid despite having the most focus
>>273622922cope selfinsert
>>273625648Black Star and Death the Kid are deuteragonists.Which is a type of main character.
>>273625784how? Kid and Black Star in the end were there to entertain Ashura while she entered in hid body to end everything. Maka is the real main, deal with it or inhale more copium.
Why did they have to add a literal shounen protag to the super serious self reformation viking manga? They literally cant have him appear for more than a few chapters because he steals the show everytime.
>>273625849>Maka is the real mainYes, exactly my point. And Maka lost to Kid in the popularity polls despite being the Real Main Character™
>>273625648Maka and Soul = protagonistBlack Star and Tsubaki = deuteragonistDeath the Kid, Liz and Patty = deuteragonist
>>273625880well, popularity is another thing honestly. Hardly never the MC wins the popularity pools, a part shitpiece maybe, I bet those brainlets love their poorly written MC
>>273619778THE HONORED ONE
>>273625880Side characters frequently win polls. You are out of touch. Maka is clearly the main character and she is the reason the good guys won, in spite of her being weaker then the god kids next to her.
>>273619778gotchu senpai
>>273627656He's not a side character, he's one of the main characters. SY has an ensemble cast and he's there to represent the realm of humans.
>>273625463Hot take: Ash should've won the Indigo league and been retired as the MC before Johto.Ash would have been a more legendary character if he only came back sparingly and was allowed to grow up, rather than being forever 10, a loser for 20 years, and getting a lobotomy every gen to justify introducing old mons to a new audience.
>>273628450>introducing old mons to a new audience*introducing new mons to an old audience. There is no new audience for pokemon.
>>273619778That's the gayest fucking shit I've ever seen.
>>273628450Appearantly that is ehat most people wanted after johto atleast, but there was some higher up thst wanted ash to be the mc forever.
>>273629761Holy shit, how new are you?
>>273628450That's a pretty cold take though. Plenty of people would have be fine if Ash was retired and they just adapted the MCs of each game for future seasons.
>>273628450>>273631242>>273632098Johto, Sinnoh and Kalos are the leagues where most people think Ash should have won due to how climatic they felt
>>273619778
Though personally I prefer Simon cause he's a real guy while Kamina is acting like a pro wrestling character.
>>273620867In every soul eater thread there is always a makafag seethimg about GOD*STAR(formerly CHAD*STAR)
>>273622342>maka is weakerYeah, that makes her more interesting than the one-joke character with a higher powerlevel.
>>273619856True
>>273638071>one-jokeBeing based and surpassing God was never a joke
>>273638625Black*Star wasn't a joke character actually. Death the Kid definitely was. Black*Star actually worked really well with the central theme meanwhile DtK felt like he had the theme pasted on with a post-it.
>>273619778He's simply better, cooler and more interesting to follow than kazuma. He's unironically way funnier too, easily the best character to come out of konosuba
Easy one
>>273619778carried the whole manga to popularity on her own
>>273626791but he is the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen
>>273640285FUCKING THISI hate Touma with passion,all the girls plus accelerator are stuck in a shitty series pic related also steals the show from those goofy ass kids
>>273644392You sound retarded
>>273622807There's nuance here. Arthur can't be as stupid and random as he was if he also had to do main character duties
>>273648699The game sprite pose is a nice touch. Good one, nips
>>273619778>coolerNah, Maka was the coolest of the main cast, with Stein the coolest overall. >more popularYeah.
>>273622923I almost never see the main character in the top three so that's kind of refreshing that both maka and soul are.
Any Evangelion character
>>273638740I agree that he didn’t have as much synergy with the rest of the main characters. Maka/Soul/Black*Star/Tsubaki feel like a friend group from the start, but even halfway through the manga DtK and the twins still kinda feel like they’re the same strangers to the group they were introduced as. Maka and Black*Star specifically have defined goals from the start while Kid mostly putzes around with OCD in all of his scenes for an arc and a half until Ohkubo decides to actually explore his role as a demigod and his questioning of the old order.
She's the most popular character in the manga.
I'm a sucker for electricity powers, and given that Kaminari is an extremely popular character for someone with quite literally 0 plot relevance (was at one point in a popularity poll 5th in Asia), I'm not the only one who feels this way
>>273619778Shinra's grandkid is cooler than Maka
>>273634871She is too op and the thirstiest one for Yuuki, its a shame she is destined to lose
>>273624883Including (especially) the readers
>>273622294Her sexual nasal voice
>>273628450>Ash would have been a more legendary character if he only came back sparingly and was allowed to grow upImagine a grown up Ash with his gigachadrizard and the cheeky pikachu and the rest
>chinese amazon>can turn into a cat>canonically strongest female character in her own series>canonically most beautiful female character in her own series>4th place on all rumiko characters popularity poll beating both ranma and akane ending on 4th place close to lum inuyasha and sesshomaru>Takashi Shiina loves her so much he is up to do a spinoff with her as main character
>>273640285>>273644595Touma is such a shitty character especially compared to most of the side characters. He is a cardboard cutout shounen protag.
>>273627656His anime version fucking sucks, I hate the voice (and design) they gave him.
>>273649264>Maka was the coolest of the main castNah, she's too much of a weakling and a cunt for that
>>273653635Her being a normal human in a world of freaks and still keeping up due to the strength of her soul + connections is what makes her the coolest, yeah.
>>273654504erwin is great but let's be honest, levi carried snk to it's peak with how the fujos were obsessed with him
>>273625655it's close but i'd say sasuke is more of the reason
My girl got so popular she beat nami and robin and still ranks high in popularity years after her debut
>>273657402Sadly the manga went garbage after the timeskip and reading it just for her is not worth it
>>273657402Should've joined the team and milked Luffy to near death
>>273620524Momo is the main character.
>>273619778Yeah...but Maka is hot.
>>273657402>she beat nami and robinIn what category ?
>>273657295Levi deserved a better ending, Annie should be publicly executed
>>273652784nah
>>273620524Jiji is a great character but the great Kinta is now the main character.......
>>273661216Based
>>273622342DBZ style combat really doesn't work when it's a little girl and the characters are all featureless.
>>273638948One think I learned is that Konosuba only works when it's written from a male character's point of view.
>>273640285HOLY BASED
>>273661216
>>273661646Nah what fag? She beat Ranma and Akane and got beat all of Rumiko Takahashi's heroines exluding Lum (which is a super similiar character anyway)cope and seethe in your third world akanefag
>>273661604in the looks category
>>273661646ranma is just inuyasha with demonic powers, so yes
>>273663217Irrelevant character
>>273621610we all welcome loser heroine here
>>273664271she could become the next chichi
>>273661941Goku started as a kid
