>shounen anime suddenly reminds you that you are not a shounen
>>282019542>TEN>GALLON>WIENER
I didn't get it.
>>282019542He's remarkably true to life since I sing Char ga Kuru to myself from time to time ever since I first heard it in Gundam.
>>282019733They spell it out for you moron. He thought okarun was popular with the girls because he made crude sexual jokes about the family jewels and tries to do it himself. Fails miserably.
>>282019542>stops singing like a cuck as he gets closer to school
OKARUNYOU TRICKED ME, OKARUN
>>282019542People have been quoting this forever and I've wondered about the context. I'm somewhat disappointed. It was just him awkwardly trying to insert himself into a conversation with 'spicy' language. Honestly, I'm not sure what I was expecting.
>>282019816I felt that cringe in my soul
Funnily enough Kinta would probably get some action if he were as flamboyant and expressive as he is in private. It wouldn't all be positive attention, but girls would at least know he exists and that's half the battle. Okarun was practically invisible as he said himself before he mustered up the courage to talk to Momo even it was just to yammer on about nerd shit. Expressing himself about his genuine interests wound up being his foot in the door. Granted it did get him cursed and he has almost died a lot of times... probably not a good role model actually.
Kinta insists upon himself.
>Aira came off like a bitch until a few episodes later where she gets a redemption episode>Jiji came off like an annoying cockblock character but is established as a complete bro only a few episodes in>Kinta comes off insufferable and unfunny>only two episodes left to redeem him before going on hiatus for 2-4 yearsAre we getting Kinta redemption in the last 2 episodes? He seems like a much weaker link to add to the friend group than Aira and Jiji.
>>282019782was I supposed to laugh at "ten gallon wiener"?
>>282021065If you're a shounen otherwise probably not
>>282021041Kinita is the same as the others. Cringy intro, absolutely based follow up. Also he's never really like this again to this extent since the whole pervy jokes thing was based around a misunderstanding.
>>282021065No, more laugh at him for making such a bad attempt at a joke that everyone just stared at him like he was a retard. But it honestly wasn't even funny in that way either.
Good episode
>>282019542This guy gets all the bitches.
>>282021041>2-4 yearsWhat are you smoking? Season 3 will be here before you know it
>>282019542This kind of feels like punching down, or trying to ignore the class autist. A good comic relief character is like sunohara, who would literally be a chad if he didn't act like a retard.
>>282022812You want art to make compromises. There’s nothing flawed in Sunohara, he’s fiction all. If you portray these otakus with their flaws and then redeem them it’s much more powerful.
>>282019542>1 self-insert wasn't enoughDon't tell me he also gets a hot girl.
>>282023507he has not
Man, Kinta is just a walking version of the "Aww you're sweet/Hello human resources" meme.
>>282019542>they gave him a perfect voice>made his movements ooze with personality>added anime-only content of him singing Gundam songsThe animators loved Kinta just as much as we did. They even made his introduction less annoying than in the manga.
I don't watch this anime but is the joke that his name sounds like kintama (金玉) ?
>>282021041No. He does something cool but it's not the point where we see he's got good self awareness deep down for a while.
>>282021041>redemptionHe doesn't really get one, thanks to his mecha-filled brain he does something cool, a couple of times, but he get cocky because of it.
>>282019816i thought that was an "in my mind versus in real life" kind of scene where he's this smooth dancing cool singer kid in his head but in real life, with the buff of imagination being removed, he's just an introvert murmuring to himself while walking with his shoulders slouched.
>>282019542Japs aren't funny but in middle school we were genuinely funny little fuckers. I still laugh at the shit we did and I'm 30.High school is when you start to think only about being cool so there's no time for goofing around.
>annoying otaku character accents to chadhood>immediately introduce an even more annoying otaku character Why
>>282020068he's pretty "flamboyant" around the gang now, he's always true to himself
>>282021041Aira turns to be competentJiji turns to be an empathKinta has the best thing: he turns to be the most real one of the group, but it will be shown next season. In a group of superhumane heroes, he's an actual teenage boy with flaws and probably the closest to the average anime viewer. That made me love his character, but some might not like the self reflection much
>>282027089because Okarun is a gary stu morally and that shit gets boring after some time
I miss Jiji
>>282023507He’s not but his end game will probably be the cute alien girl. Every logical endgame pairing gets introduced close together as they represent the male and female sides of the same coin: Momo & Ken, Aira & Jiji, Kingta & Bamora, Rin & Zuma, creepy goth girl nobody remembers & asshole jock bully nobody likes
>>282021041Kinta is actually the least annoying of them all (Still like Aira and tolerant Jiji) and isn't as boring as the ones that comes later, he comes off as endearing due to steadfast mantra of always wanting to contribute even if he has no powers himself.
>>282021065He did not say wiener. He said ten gallon cock. Blame the translators.
>>282019542he is not a boy?
>>282030085chinko is to chinpo and chinchin as wiener is to cock and peepee
>>282021041Jiji is a bro, but he's still very annoyingAira is a brave leader, but she's still a bitch towards the other girlsAnd so Kinta will still be insufferable, but he will at least prove to be the competent brains of the team
>>282021041Kinta will have a mecha fight scene. Normalfags of course will never like this character but mecha nerds can relate.
>>282021123>Also he's never really like this again to this extentHe drops the perv jokes immediately after he sees they don't work but he's an Aira tier simp still. Which is a massive improvement over Mineta anyway.
>>282031087>Normalfags of course will never like this characterNormies don't like Jiji either so who cares
>>282030434he's a man
>>282031816Normalfags love Jiji though
>>282019782The joke is not even funny and they ran with it through the whole episode.All the Kintachad posting made me believe this character was at least funny, I.hipe the dirty joke gag was just only for this episode
>>282032058>Normalfags love Jiji though
>>282032996Aren't all the others the MC's of their series, seems like he's doing pretty well to make it into the top ten at all
>>282032996>Gojo at the very topIt's little things like this that sometimes give me hope
>>282032904>Kintachad postingHe is one of us, that's why he is so beloved. He's the /m/a/n.
Best girl is finally hereAnd remind me why doesn't get big more often
>>282019542Kek
>>282021065I think it's a millennial joke/reference to I don't know what, that's why we zoomers don't understand or laugh.
>>282022812Sunohara is not a believable character in reality, Kinta is.
>>282026589Are you Japanese?
>>282019542i laughed
>>282032996fujo list
