What makes a character popular among women?
competent, pretty, evil, give tragic backstory as if he didn't want the personality that he has, a few kind moments, make them think they can fix him, make the guy a novelist or therapist or a bar owner or something
>>281898669
Women crave abuse
similarly to irl, the more comedically evil and hot the man is, the more popular they will be with Women
Ask Rika, winner of the 'character Japanese woman want to date' poll 3 years in a row.
w*men don't like anime, they pretend they do but they only do that because anime has been popular for years now, the characters they like will always be the popular ones
>>281899244>the characters people like will be the characters people like
>>281899272They don't like a character because they like the character, they like the character because other people like the character.
>>281898781In reality just be hot. That’s literally all it takes, fans make up and fill in the rest.
>>281899344I can't think of a hot character who is disliked by women. Not even Naoya who ranked highly in popularity polls
>>281899344>In reality just be hot. That’s literally all it takes, fans make up and fill in the restBeing good = boring = it makes women get the ick
>>281899177For once, I understand women. I also want to date Rika.
>>281899177Androgynous lesbians with piercings?
>>281899244what you're talking about is normies.there has always been a fair amount of girls into anime. back in my days they were mainly into things like black butler and that other vampire anime which i don't remember the name of. anime wasn't very popular by that point so they weren't posers. they were the type of girls to dress in black, listen to emo and write gothic poems on their notebooks. basically outcasts. i have no doubt they were really into it. most of them made art too.yeah it's very specific but back then anime resonated with a very specific kind of people. i mean it's still the case, it's just that there's so much normies inbetween that it feels like they've disappeared
>>281899688Women want to be them. Men want to be with them
>>281900163Pretty sure all the comments on that poll were about how much they wanna fuck her
>>281900581These women have good taste
>>281898669unobtainable
>>2818986691. a personality such that he'd want to rape you2. looks and status such that you'd want him to rape you
>>281899688I'd marry Rika if she asked.
>Be a son of a bitch>Be good-looking
They are weak to handsome male characters that engender a lot of pathos. Just being handsome isn't really enough because there are a lot of handsome goodboys that get no attention because they are too wooden and paladin-like. Something about him has to awaken some feeling of pity and sentimental feelings that makes her go "I understand him and can fix him".
>>281898669Tall, big hands, rapey personality. That's it.
>>281898669Blonde, blue eyes, and a rapist.
>>281899400>Not even Naoyawhat the fuck did you mean by that
>>281899177She's popular with men too (i.e me)
>>281902169Like emotionally an abandoned puppy, but also extremely successful for whatever reason.
>>281902327Good taste.
>>281902333It's a very fine line, because there are so many shows of weakness that can give the ick and harden a woman's heart up for no reason at all (seriously, they talk about the ick so much because they themselves don't know what causes it)
>>281899887/a/ has pretty much always hated girls into anime, although ironically back then it was because they were weird and off-putting AKA not normal by any stretch.
>>281902624So /a/ hates people who are actually strange and they hate normalfags. Is there anything this board likes?
>>281902480>draw a boy call it a girl
>>281902718Complaining.
>>281898669FatOldBaldingEagerVirile
>>281902881Who tf is Fobev
>>281902169>>281902333In most cases, dudes like Shinji who are despondent and have little drive tend to not be liked by women. A guy having tragedy is fine, especially if it makes him mysterious or edgy. But not if they're emotionally crippled by it like how someone actually would be.
>>281902718What the fuck is this? Lmao. The bar for what drives a man or a woman into being an outcast is different. There's no crossover nor relatibility between the two.
>>281902718I like discussing anime and manga.
>>281902169Nope. This is an immature view of women. In reality women only care about status. High status is attractive. Being really attractive is a symbol of status. Being an alpha chad who dominates others is a symbol of high status. Being rich is a powerful symbol of high status, as is, of course, being famous. When you see supermodels hanging off rich people it's not their gold-diggers, it's that being that rich is attractive to them.
>>281903343Not showering will make you an outcast pretty quickly regardless of what's between your legs
>>281899344This. Anyone got that one picture of the type of guys women like and it's just one guy in different edits?
>>281904339I don't think that's really true.
for me its good skeleton but otherwise disfigured or ugly, missing teeth are a plus.
>>281902718Now you understand why there are so many foreveralones here.
>>281898669Conventionally attractive, psychopathy, high intelligence etc.
>>281903343Nah, being ugly, smelly, and mentally ill is pretty frowned upon no matter your gender.
>>281898669Not uglyNot fatTallPowerful (as in very strong, rich, socially intelligent or smart enough to control others)Just like real life
>>281903726You know what? Fair.
>>281904339>>281906047Eh, you can't be legitimately autistic, shy, or otherwise passive. That's a turn off no matter what. Otherwise, this is mostly right.
>>281899177>>281902327>>281902480Tall flat enjoyers will inherit the Earth
>>281906047Yeah that one, thanks.
>>281899244There are some women who genuinely like anime; I met a couple in my high school days, but yeah, most of them just see it as a means to get profit from beta males.
Destiny.
>>281898669Violent but with just a touch of vulnerability so they can think "I can fix him, he won't do those things to me".
>>281898669>>281906047Serious and honest question: while I know that women would never voluntarily put characters like this in their own fiction, do girls who read shounen series find them cute? Do Okarun and characters like him have actual female fans who would want to date him if he were real?
>>281906433>most of them just see it as a means to get profit from beta males.Honestly, there's nothing to really gain unless you have a job as a voice actress, professional cosplayer, or vtuber.
>>281906235Tallflats usually lack child-bearing hips on top of having no breasts to feed their offspring. You won't be inheriting anything.
>>281906560>I know that women would never voluntarily put characters like this in their own fictionThat's not true. Some women like approachable, nerdy guys. It's the same way some guys like homely girls.
>>281906560Do you know that women find Shinji cute
>>281898669Good looks + at least somewhat deranged Bonus points for tragic/fucked up backstory.
>>281903306Shinji is less popular because he's too young/immature. If he was older and still pathetic he'd get a lot more popularity. As it is now he's more fitting for BL shit.
>>281898781Slightly androgynous, blonde/silver haired and twisted in some way or a little boy
>>281906974Is that why Gendo is such a ladies' man?
>>281906888Nerdy is 100% fine as long as the guy in question is comfortable/accepting of that nerdy-ness. Guys like that have an air of confidence and light-heartedness about them that pulls girls interest.
>>281907016What is it with Japanese women and light hair
>>281907017Yes, also the willingness to resort to violence + wife yearner shit.
>>281906922Shinji is usually only mentioned because he's the uke to Kaworu. Otherwise, he's a very unpopular character despite being the protagonist. >>281906974>If he was older and still pathetic he'd get a lot more popularityI can't think of many examples that would come to mind. Maybe the dude from Dress-up Darling? But he's nowhere near as popular compared to male characters that are assertive and/or psychotic.
If it's twinkiy and/or androdgynous, pretty and metrosexual women will love it. Bonus points if it's also evil, a rapist, a psycho, a vampire(or other kind of monster).
>>281898669dumb bitch ruined a good manga page, with her dirty cunt lips
>>281898669The reverse of whatever makes a character popular among men
>>281907414It's kind of the same actually. Women like men who are like women (e.x. a CEO who moisturiserizes his face and cares about fashion) while men like women who are a bit like guys (e.x. every man on the plantet would fall for his tomboy childhood friend from the house across the street)
>>281898669Just be handsome. Experiments have shown that women will literally go after pedos and serial killers if they are handsome.
>>281899344It goes for both male and female fans as a basis, really.
>>281902333>Like emotionally an abandoned puppy, but also extremely successful for whatever reason.Now I understand all the women who fall for the MC in No Longer Human.
>>281899407Not necessarily, again, depending on looks.>>281902611Also because you watch too much street interviews asking drunk girls about their icks.
>>281906888Checked and based. Look at how many women love good-natured nerds like Gohan and Milo (from Atlantis).
Oh shit, meant to post that picture in another thread.
>>281907636They are the "I can make him worse" type.
>>281898669Confidence. Women love ugly bastards because they have giga chad energy and put women in their place. Nothing makes a woman more wet than the thought of this guy pressing up against her and kissing her while putting his fingers in without asking.
>>281908267This does have some merit to it given exceptions exist where Pajeets and fatties manage to score.
>psychopath murderer cult leader who has women worship him, then eats them, or displays their body parts like furniture>female KnY fans instantly love himalways thought that was funny
>>281908583Needs more male sluts.
>>281899177>>281899548>>281899688>>281900581>>281900605Nobody cares about what dykes think. Also, Rika is for the boys only.
>>281898669You just need to be dominant/masculine and know how to put them in their place
>>281906741bass
>>281898669Perfection.
>>281908926This. Dominance isn’t necessarily abuse, but a few hard slaps and a good fucking when she bitches out at you does the trick.
>>281899177Funny how they would keep pairing her with an older man everytime.
>>281906560>who would want to date him if he were real?HAHAHHHAHHA
>>281898669The ability to hurt and manipulate.
>>281898669Be him
>>281898669Who cares?
>>281899177winner of rape correction you mean?
>>281908583Myaa-nee is the only one who's my favorite of her own show on that list.
>>281898669handsome and evil but has redeemable qualities(optional)
>>281906121>Eh, you can't be legitimately autistic, shy, or otherwise passive. That's a turn off no matter what.Wrong. In otome, autism has an appeal.
>>281909681>Be himThe funny thing is he is perfect as bait for fangirls. Down to the fact that he never showed affection to Sakura. The inability to ever show interest is hot to the girls. It is the unattainable that gets them.I didn't realise until later why Sakura ended up with him; she ended up a Single Mum, just like any number of girls to chase after Bad Boys. And as per usual Sakura never felt bad about the choice she made.
>>281909863You do.
>>281898669Ruining a manga page like this makes me irrationally angry
Easiest way to understand women's taste in anime boys in to (ironically) watch the non anime film of Ice Age. Women like guys like Diego, dangerous guys with troubled family lives that have a heart of gold and will show that in a grand act of dramatic expression. At least that was/is my sister's taste
>>281906121Eh. I see plenty of women thinking Laios from Dungen Meshi is hot and husband material. I guess that depends if you consider him autistic or not.
>>281910835>Eh. I see plenty of women thinking Laios from Dungen Meshi is hot and husband material. I guess that depends if you consider him autistic or not.Laios is a skilled warrior. That usually gave enough points to satisfy most women. One theory on the post war baby boom was that the surviving men coming back from the war ended up married because the women feel they are happy with what they got. Classic "test of manhood" stuff. Like hunting a boar with a spear or kill a buffalo.
>>281906560if you watch the show then you would know that girl prefer jiji
I think people just like "interesting" things in fiction because it's just made up and not as annoying when "one-dimensional".A lot of the mentioned quirks are a pain in the ass when paired with an entire real person and all the baggage related to it.Probably related to why some women are known to write love letters to serial killers. It's exciting but probably not something that will actually affect their life. Dude is in prison for decades at least after all. The fantasy is more appealing than the reality.
>>281911568>Probably related to why some women are known to write love letters to serial killers. It's exciting but probably not something that will actually affect their life. Dude is in prison for decades at least after all. The fantasy is more appealing than the reality.Another theory is that women get too protected in society and thus lack stimuli, thus try to seek excitement even if it is dangerous. Men want nothing more than peace and quiet because our work is stressful enough, but women are shielded from danger and thus get bored like ADHD sufferers.
>>281911673How is a 9-5 woman in 2025 more shielded than 95% of all men?
>>281908756calm down
>>281910723>The inability to ever show interest is hot to the girls. It is the unattainable that gets them.Ding! Ding! Ding! You got it Anon! The real answer! You win!
>>281912023I said you got the answer, not that it works irl. I'm so sorry for you, for real
>>281902480>>281899177the trans icon
>>281911139That's what >>281906047 is saying>>281906121 said that autism overpowers hotness>>281910835 said that hotness still overpowers autismyou seem to agree with anons 1 and 3, yet you replied to anon 3 as if you disagreed with them and agreed with anon 2
>>281906560>while I know that women would never voluntarily put characters like this in their own fictionwomen is not one person
>>281899688yes
>>281907031Wait for real? Oh wait, I forgot I live in a Third World country
>>281898669Be hot and dangerous.
>>281898669>Urusawa>A hack that forces dorama and prioritizes it above any sense of logic
>>281912265He is unironically not made for the Western mind to grasp
>>281912023>That's strange. I lost interest in woman years ago but they still look like they get chills down their spine when they are forced to interact with meTry wearing a fake wedding ring. You would be surprised how well it works. Of course it attracts all the BAD women, so maybe not?
>>281906121>>281910685>>281911139So the "autism" women like is just a guy who behaves differently from the norm without a care for what society will think of him. So what they actually like is confidence.
>>281912442Chris-chan doesn't give a fuck what people think about him either, you know.
>>281912469you are using an extreme example
>blonde hair>blue eyes>manipulative>young>complete lack of morals
>>281902169>>281902333Yup, that sounds like the guys in Medalist.
>>281906741We will evolve shorter and stockier women to be cows
>>281899177understandable at least..
>>281912536Am I the only one who reads this and feels like they want to be colonized?
>>281911714You're joking right?
>>281909578Those older men? Me
>>281912078And yet 99.99% of male love interests in stories written by and for girls fall into a very narrow design set.
>>281910835Laios is husband material because he's big and dependable, like a giant teddy bear. For characters like this, the autism just makes them more endearing and down-to-earth.
>>281910835Well, he is into orc women...
>>281913028Guys are also rather restricted in their tastes
>>281913158So if you made him 8 inches shorter all his other good qualities would go out the window?
>>281906047Literally me
>>281913499Do you see any women gushing over Senshi?
>>281913551Actually yes I have
>>281913499No, because people thirst over senshi and chilchuck too. Or at least see them as dependable dad types
>>281908583>Rin "I fumble at the most critical point" Tohsaka>murdererAt least the creator of that infographic should have used Sakura for slut murderer or Seiba deadbeat dad
>>281913629>>281913551So they want a dependable stable dad type and they also want a risk-taking dark triad manipulatorWhat the fuck do they want
>>281913709One is for marrying and the other is for fantasizing
>>281913551He's best boy.
>>281914657That's Kabru
>>281912300Is it one of these individualist vs collectivist things which Western and East Asian cultures have between them.
>>281913709It is possible 50% of the world's population contains multitudes. Anyways this is my short husbando.
>>281913709>So they want a dependable stable dad type and they also want a risk-taking dark triad manipulator>What the fuck do they wantThe reality is depressing.They want to marry the dependable stable dad type, but have him raise the kid from the risk-taking dark triad manipulator. Ideally with the husband NOT knowing the kid isn't his. That is how they get the best of both worlds.And yes, it is disgusting. Men and women have animalistic desires that are best left unfufilled, because otherwise we are just lawless animals.
>>281913709Both.Ever heard of cuckoldry?
>>281913863People like emotions, not each other. So same goes for fictional characters.
>>281914871Can't see anything out of order here. Even if it's bad from moral point of view, humans are still animals, you know.
>>281913709You don't have multiple archetypes of girls you're into? NPC anon?
>>281902881don't forget the glasses, it helps if he wears nice big glasses too...
>>281907070You mean all women? Gojo had western fujos doing wild shit
>>281913028The reason this occurs is much less to do with girls' desires and much more to do with stable commercialization options. Companies don't like to take risks, and formulaic boy love interest #4452 is much more profitable than going out and pandering to an untested market niche. It's the same reason we get a million superhero remake movies instead of actually cool and interesting movie premises that people genuinely want.
>>281915308Holy shit, someone else on this board watched The Daichis - Earth`s Defense Family?My impression was always that the dad was slim back in the 80s and only got fat after he managed to land his wife. What did she see in him?
>>281913863>just because them saying they want someone to feel secure withCrazy how the human mind works that being with a big dude makes them feel safe. Because in an age of guns, or even with things like knives involved, you aren't any safer with a big dude over a small dude.
>>281915396That's probably a reasonable assumption, or else she just saw him as a stable, drama-free guy (his inability to assert himself being both a positive trait and a drawback).Ironically, I think he's cute as hell the way he is and I always enjoyed his otaku antics... I could treat him right...
>>281915405fertility signals are stuck at ten thousand years ago. it's like how big breasts and hips are attractive because they're predictors of healthy childbearing ability, even in the age of BBLs and silicone breast augments
>>281915618Wide hips disgust me
>>281898669If they’re a teacher (or a similar father figure role) in an age gap relationship with his student.
>>281915646see >>281902881, score another one for the older man nation
>>281898669Pretty/androgynous look mixed with confident/dominant personality, just like in real life.
>>281907470You're minority anon. Men can seperate masculinity from feminity but women can't for some reason.
>>281899177>>281902327She's popular with men (all of them).
>>281916795No, there are plenty of people on this board who look at her relative lack of curves and begin screaming at the top of their lungs about homosexuals, the globhomo, the chosen tribe, the T-words, etc. That is to say, a lot of guys here are not attracted to Rika.
>>281916862Nobody here except you brought up that topic. You could have just said most people don’t find her attractive. In the end, it says more about you than anyone else here.
>>281916990>Nobody hereYou missed the esl hours unfortunately >>281908756>>281912055
>>281916795I'm glad so many people have taste.
Stop liking evil men
>>281917178Man, modern Pokemon characters look like crap.Can't believe we went from Cynthia, Elesa, and Hilda to this.
>>281913709You’re more likely to see the former if the dad rules the families and in religious communities.
Stop liking evil men and women
>>281917352Blame the tendie cult that can’t reject any slop handed to them by the almighty.
>>281916862Nah, all men want to fuck her. Girls who act boyish are something guys all desire.>>281917164Says the esl.
>>281917404Never!
>>281917178we need more of this character archetype
>>281915369Don’t forget the loads of isekai and harems where every other hot girl is thirsty for the bland, dense MC’s dick.
>>281916990>>281917496I don't know why you guys are pretending there's no outrage over women not being "feminine", especially when it happens so much nowadays. Feels like I'm being gaslighted here. Are you going to deny this happens on this board?
>>281908583>Illya>more popular than Rin>doesn't know where the anus meme is from>doesn't kill a single person outside of Bad Ends where she feels guilty the circumstances forced her toKill yourself subhuman.
>>281917895I didn’t make the picture.
>>281912536lmao that's me
>>281918014Pic?
>>281917744>>281917178Literally a man. No wonder the trannies attached themselves to this garbage.
>>281917496See what I'm talking about? I'm not making this shit up. >>281918206
>>281918257Yeah you're right. Many men have terrible taste.
>>281917958You're still gay for posting it.
>>281918369What if I replaced Rin with Illya?
>>281918257>literally draw a fucking man >call it a womanyeah bro all "men" want to fuck "her"feel free to list a single piece of microscopic female trait that her appearance has
>>281913709Me.
>>281918206trannies tend to gravitate to extremely conventionally feminine characters (they're still straight men, after all). androgynous female characters tend to be more popular with actual women.
>>281916862>relative lack of curvesYou'd think /a/ would be more attracted to her given it adores loli.
>>281918206>>281918989>"muh trannies"Fuck off.>>281918257I guess you're right. Too many fags like these guys have shit taste. Imagine not wanting to fuck a handsome women.
>>281919005/a/ is fine with loli because they look like prepubescent girlsRika just reminds them of an actual adolescent or grown man
>>281913709So how the fuck did your dad manage to trick your mom into bed and marry her?
>>281899177Here's your tomboy gf (male)
>>281919199>a handsome women.only esls like you like that man character
>>281920147He had a stable high paying job and this was in a non-western country where most people were religious and/or adhered to traditional values. Sex before marriage for instance was looked down on.
>>281899344In real life, sure, but when it comes to fictional men, women fall for this >>281898781Remember how women were crazy for Harry Potter's teacher.
>>281919358True. I meant loli as a body type.
>>281920246Look bro, Takarazuka survives for a reason.
>>281913709For the dependable stable dad and the risk-taking dark triad manipulator to make out with each other, duh.
>>281921935Looked down on or not, your own mother fucked before marriage.
>>281922700That's certainly what I want.
>>281921456Nah. Esls like you hate women and prefer men.
>>281922745She didn't. She's rather pious. I understand this is hard for some of you guys in the West to wrap your heads around, but it still works that way in so-called "backwards" countries.
>>281921456>>281922993I misread it as eels
>>281910835He's not autistic or passive.
>>281923385Kek
>>281922700No. I want them to fuck.
>>281922993feel free to point out ANY part of the character's design that is female like. literally anything. you can't lol. >>281918989 you are a gay nigger
>>281923596Is this an open question?Eyelashes
>>281923573Make the risk-taking dark triad manipulator pregnant! He must face the consequences of his risk-taking!
>>281923135It's not even that rare in the west either, it's just an unpopular idea
>>281922700But who's supposed to be the bottom in that relationship...
>>281923806You can find obscure forums where teenage girls send each other death threats over that exact question
>>281923892Twitter ain't obscure.
>>281923714how are they feminine exactly?
>>281908717Toji is closes enough to a male slut.
>>281923912You can find anything on TwitterI meant forums where that's the only thing that happens One fandom Everything outside of one specific blatant misreading of the source material is equal to literal genocide Years of fights over a single ship
Boy I sure do love mods allowing discord fags to spam the same thinly veiled twitter shit on the board ad infinitum.

>>281906560Okarun is cute. However I'm a Jiji's girl.
>>281924030>>281924124Omg Gundam anons I love to be hero x
>>281923717Risk taking feels the best when it's not a safe day.
>>281924030*I meant Patroclus and Achilles. Fuck, I'm so tired.
>>281924174Omg sister will you be in the homo thread this week??
>>281924031not really
>>281924113>>281924158>>281924219Alright man calm down. How do you wish the conversation went instead? Rather than give in to irony-poisoning and resort to snide remarks, try and act as you would like others to act. Be constructive or some shit
>>281906235Are women disgusted by men with long tongues or do they find it hot?
>>281924193If you know anything about shipping, Hector was definitely in there somewhere
>>281924269Use your fucking head anon, a fucking middle schooler would know the answer to this.
>>281924260nta but will you be in the homo Mugen threads this week? I know us sisters love that place
>>281924240Then you are blind and there is no point in talking to you.
>>281924414men has eyelashes too fyi
>>281924324Enjoying it and finding it aesthetically appealing are different things.
Women REALLY seem to love Vash. Not sure why. I don't mean that as in I can't see why women WOULD like him, I just can't identify the specifics.
>>281924438>>281924443So are we meeting in the homo Mugen threads?
>>281924480So true as a homo Mugen thread goer I noticed this a lot!
>>281924030>>281924193There's this book called Song of Achilles that became popular for the shipping crowd.
>>281924637I think I saw that show up in the Mugen threads yeah.
>Omg sister will you be in the homo thread this week??>nta but will you be in the homo Mugen threads this week? I know us sisters love that place>So are we meeting in the homo Mugen threads?
who is this "mugen thread" spammer? what is that even?
>>281924675So is that a yes?
>>281924692We meet there every Thursday and Wednesday
>>281924692Mugen is an old-school fighting game engine that's know for people making a ton of insane characters (often recreations of characters from other media) and other general insanity. It's what people used to make those "Peter Griffin vs Homer Simpson" videos you used to watch 20 years ago. I'm not sure what "homo mugen" is supposed to imply unless it's some forced term for fantasy shipping of two unrelated characters which in all honesty, it's a far more natural phrase than anything the kids come up with today.
>>281924480Japanese fangirls describe anime Vash as having a "wanko-chan" personality, so basically a puppy or big dumb dog. Being in a series with a range of tone helps too, because he can be both moemoe silly and a cool, dangerous stranger.
>>281924826More natural than hikaru ga shinda
>>281924675Needs to be held against a wall and fingered until words no longer form.
>>281924826nah, i know about fucking mugen loli thought the implication was obviously something other than that from his postsoh well, whatever
>>281924872>>281924836So that's a yes?
>>281924826Bot post
>>281924030Plato did. It is a foundation of western philosophy.>In Plato's Symposium, written c. 385 BC, the speaker Phaedrus holds up Achilles and Patroclus as an example of divinely approved lovers. >Phaedrus argues that Aeschylus erred in claiming Achilles was the erastes because Achilles was more beautiful and youthful than Patroclus (characteristics of the eromenos) as well as more noble and skilled in battle (characteristics of the erastes). >Instead, Phaedrus suggests that Achilles is the eromenos whose reverence of his erastes, Patroclus, was so great that he would be willing to die to avenge him
>>281924836What did they think about nu-Vash?
>>281924896Not even a bot post it's just incorrect
>>281924920Sex.
>>281924920I think the current opinion in the homo Mugen threads that happen every Wednesday and Thursday was that he had a flower pussy
>>281903460Everyone is obsessed with status. You think the rice eating feudal lords who have invented fifteen different fucking honorifics aren't?
>>281924954Based homo mugen thread goer.
Uh oh, I think the esl is having a melty
>>281924968I think I read a yaoi about this in the homo mugen thread that happens every Wednesday and Thursday
>>281917744>"woman" and pajeetaNo thanks.
>>281925087Rika is hot though
I wonder, what is the percentage of women who self-insert as the top?
>>281925271According to the homo mugen threads that happen wed and thurs which are full of women. I think 40%.
I find it very strange that someone can browse this board for a year or more and not notice the threads that say 801 in them without being at least curious what they are. I've seen some people blame the catalog for this behavior; they claim it accelerates the balkanization of the board, since newcomers head straight to their dailies or generals and ignore every other thread. More importantly, why is someone here bringing up the mugen threads constantly?
>>281925373What's the significance of 801
>>281925438stands for boi
>>281925373Well a lot of people don't know that they happen every wed and thurs on the dot.Or that they're full of women discussing anime and manga.
>>281925448
>>281925112Maybe if she looked like a woman.
>>281925522I want to touch her in the places that make her feel like a woman.
>>281925499>>281925311>threads happen on wed and thurs on the dot.>they're full of women discussing anime and manga.Supposing this is true, why do you feel the need to reiterate this point?
Alright /a/, what does my husbando say about me?
>>281925271https://strawpoll.com/xVg71zDRpyr let's do science
>>281925721cryptomining IP grabber, do not click
>>281913709To get fucked silly by one or both
>>281924269Man what I would do to get to bang Kuroko and fondle those cans
>>281925768Strawpoll is bad now?
>>281925662I'm just providing canonically factual information about a thread about anime and manga that occurs every week on wed and thurs whose poster population is a majority women.
>>281926026I mean, we're all little girls here.
>>281925714Well he's the best character in the show. Maybe the only thing worth watching in the show.
>>281926026I know you believe this to be true. But why are you doing it?
>>281926073>>281926152I don't see how that is relevant is there a reason why I cannot provide the information that an anime and manga thread pops up on thurs and wed that is populated by mostly women that uses mugen as a thread image?
>>281924920To be honest I don't know, the wanko-chan thing was in old magazines I collected. Stampede Vash is probably even further on the moe side, since he got way less badass moments and is downright pathetic at times. Even in the finale fight he's emotionally distraught and begging people to stay safe.>>281925714I'll guess you like a flawed, down-to-earth man who is skilled at bluffing confidence to make ends meet, but is capable of heartfelt moments of honesty when things go wrong. A man who holds himself with confidence is outwardly sexy, but blind confidence becomes annoying arrogance if it's never turned off. You like when you get glimpses of someone more fallible, vulnerable even, and that he's able to still roll with his weaknesses to survive (best of both worlds, in a way). He'll get you through rough patches but he's learnt his limits by the end of S2 and won't take the good times for granted. And despite his jaded world view he keeps hold of bright, optimistic talk for those who need it, whether you want to just accept that nicety or return it is up to you. He's definitely a character that we, the audience, see go out of his way to help others even before/without identifying a way to profit from it, and altruism like that is a core motivator for many waifufags to dote on their partner. The "nobody is (spoiling him/showing him how good he is) in canon so I want to" mindset, which with Reigen probably comes with thoughts of how flustered and unprepared he would be for that kind of treatment. Dude sees himself as a conman and a disappointment, and takes most of the manga to accept he might have been a good person who did the right things on several occasions rather than the bare minimum. Those types always get people wanting to yell praise and adoration at a character.Lastly, he's a funny guy, intentional or not. You like a good chuckle.
>>281926420Is there a reason why you should provide this information?
>>281925373I'll go with closeted fag losing their mind
>>281925721Not every time but the mind wanders. Variety is what makes life fun.
>>281926650Is there a reason against providing the information?
>>281898669The kind ones
every time i watch a female anime reactor, they decide which guy they like from their first scene in the show (possibly even before that since they've seen fanart before starting the show) and every characterstic of the guy is interpreted through the lens of already liking him.i don't really think personality or backstory matters AT ALL. just like us guys, we instinctively pick the women we like based on immediate impressions and all the post-hoc paraphernalia about it just becomes about amplifying what was already present to begin with.
>>281926882I won't answer that until you've first answered my question.
>>281899344Then how do you explain the popularity of shows like Osomatsu-san among women? They were EXTREMELY obsessed with the Matsu bros in the mid 10's despite them looking like silly puppets.
>>281899177based nip women
>every time i watch a female anime reactor
>>281926719But most of the wed thurs thread goers are women who enjoy talking about manga and anime men.>>281926956Well there's no reason to answer your question without the context of whether there would be a reason to not provide the information.
>>281927007stop pretending you're so different from them. pathetic nerds on 4chan acting above it all are the most hilarious thing
>>281907219There's this weird belief on /a/ that girls like My Dress-up Darling because they like the male mc and self-insert as Marin for him but in reality very few women care or find him attractive, they like that series because Marin represents an ideal for them (pretty, popular, quirky, and is openly into otaku culture without being judged).
>>281908583The first guy isn't that popular with girls
>>281908583What does it mean to be "toxic"?
>>281927279It's a catch-all for the same negative phenotypes mentioned before (manipulative, isolating you from your loved ones and friends, psychopathic, etc.)
>>281927279Male yandere
>>281908583if being tall is so important then why is Levi on here?
>>281927216>>281927255I've heard that the homo mugen threads on wed and thurs has an opinion on these types of things.
>>281928237His good looks and personality (i.e. depressed, which means females want to fix him) override his being a manlet.
>>281928237He's a war vet, which in their minds means he can carry himself through hard times.
>>281927279Actually a good question because I don’t know if they even recognize "toxic" in a negative way, it’s like they like having the "toxic" experience as long as it’s sufficiently "hot".
>>281906560 i prefer Jiji over Okarun. Okarun reminds me of too many nerdy "nice guys" I gave a shot to while they fucked me over and it gives me the ick. Yet guys like Jiji that were already sure of themselves, and unafraid to show how much they loved someone were true keepers
>>281927255first guy is literally the reason bungo stray dogs is getting somewhere with female fans tho
>>281928237My womanlet friend liked him because he's short too, along with the regular stoic badass stuff
>>281909681Ryo Saeba mentioned!
>>281898669He needs to be an anime twink psychopath with crime past, preferably rude to women.
>>281928983>>281929004I believe that the mugen thread which is posted every week at wed and thurs and is full of women tends to agree actually.
>Acting like a deranged faggotNo wonder women take advantage of you.
>>281929851This. Nobody's saying you can't be decent. It's a matter of not taking whatever bullshit dicks throw at you, not just women.
>>281929851Sadly a lesson many could learn.
>>281923596The eyes, smile, body. All female. Handsome girls are hot and for the boys.
>>281929341>>281929851I feel like this is the standard that the weekly homo mugen threads would apply themselves to.
>>281899177I'm a straight man, as straight as can be, and I fucking love Rika and wish she was real and wish she was my wife and wish she was pregnant with my child.Rika love love Rika love Rika Rika RIKA
>>281913631That's an edit of that same pic but for the bottom side it's all>underage>underage>underage
>>281931969I feel as if the weekly homo mugen threads that happen every wed and thurs, which are full of women would probably think the same about pokemon characters like Kieran and Bugsly who are on the opposite spectrum of that.
>>281899177>sends retard into shit posting frenzyHow does Rika do it?
>>281932025what
>>281913709They want everything and nothing
>>281932333I believe similar hatred is caused by characters frequently posted in the weekly mugen threads that occur wed and thur.
>>281927279self destructive maybe
>>281932022not surprisedjust like men hate women for liking 'assholes', women hate men for liking 'young and pretty' girls.
>>281899407Stop venting your bullshit here man.
>>2819148712-3% paternity fraud rate btw. This is a cuck fantasy made to demoralizd you.
>>281932891>looks at a woman>thinks of men fuckingA tale as old as time
>>281928504Is relevant since you posted a CSM image, but do you like any boys from that series?
>>281933037I'm speaking of a thread that is compromised by a majority of women which uses mugen as the thread image, and denotes itself as the homo thread. That occurs every wed and thurs and has similar discussion as it pertains to anime and manga and the interest of women in those characters who are predominently male.
>>281933162Saar, you can't get cock out of your mind, you can barely make legible sentences...
>>281933358But I am speaking about the wed and thurs threads. They occur every week, and are full of women. Not men, they have similar discussions.That being male characters who are from anime and manga series and their attractiveness levels to females.Who make up a majority of the posters of said thread.
>>281933501Don't be dumb, there's no women on /a/.
>>281917164>>281917164>troon spam into replying to every post about homosSurely the esl meltdown doesn't continue until the next day right
>>281933691But there are women on 4chan, specifically women in the mugen thread which happens wed and thurs. You see it occurs every week and is filled with women, this is confirmed by them speaking about the attractiveness of male characters as they pertain to women.
>>281898669>don't be a faggot>cold enough to make them crave your attention, but warm/nice enough to have some nice moments together>be mysterious (but not in an offputting incel way)>evil/twisted>be good lookingenjoy free vagina
>>281906560I wouldn't call Okarun a complete faggotdespite being a turbo virgin he at least does try to get things going with Momomeanwhile /a/ turbovirgins probably don't even have a single female friend because they don't know how to talk to a woman
>>281906560He's cute but I'm marrying Jiji.
>>281913709I'll take Laios and Kabru.
>>281898781>make them think they can fix himThey love the fantasy of taming a wild horse.
So close
>>281934776I believe that those two are well liked in the weekly homo thread which occurs every wed or thurs which is filled with women who also like those characters.
>>281898669kek
>>281933082ironically, I think Denji is pretty cool. Aki is ok but I feel i'd be bored with him over time. But i'm very much into Power more than any of the male CSM characters desu.
>>2819330051/30 men being cucked is hardly "demoralizing cuck fantasy" lmao
>>281932333Rika is just that good.
>>281917178looks like a dudeyou're a faggot if men are your type
>>281942093
>>281941558I feel as if the homo thread on thurs and wed also have favorable opinions of denji and aki. Particularly I believe the women who are the vast majority of that thread prefer stoic males like Aki.
