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

what 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

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.

In 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.

Nope. 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.

I 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).

It'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)

The 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.

>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.

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.

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.

The 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.

The reason this occurs is much less to do with girls' desires and much more to do with stable commercialization options.

Ironically, I think he's cute as hell the way he is and I always enjoyed his otaku antics... I could treat him right...

Mugen 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.
>>
>>281924480
Japanese 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.

Plato 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

>>281924920
To 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.

>>281925714
I'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.

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.

just like men hate women for liking 'assholes', women hate men for liking 'young and pretty' girls.

Is relevant since you posted a CSM image, but do you like any boys from that series?

I'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.

Saar, you can't get cock out of your mind, you can barely make legible sentences...

But 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.

Don't be dumb, there's no women on /a/.

>troon spam into replying to every post about homos
Surely the esl meltdown doesn't continue until the next day right
>>
>>281933691
But 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.

I wouldn't call Okarun a complete faggot
despite being a turbo virgin he at least does try to get things going with Momo
meanwhile /a/ turbovirgins probably don't even have a single female friend because they don't know how to talk to a woman

He's cute but I'm marrying Jiji.

>make them think they can fix him
They love the fantasy of taming a wild horse.

So close

I 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.

ironically, 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.

1/30 men being cucked is hardly "demoralizing cuck fantasy" lmao

I 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.
