Why do most male main characters look like this?
>>282946524So they're relatable to the average Japanese teenager.
>>282946524why are you showing only isekai ones, nigga? go fuck yourself
>>282946588Okay here you go
>>282946524They don't. Your pic is just applying survivorship bias by ignoring MCs that contradict your claim.>>282946588Even among isekai it's not true. Especially isekai-tensei (reincarnation) where the MC gets a new body. It makes sense in isekai-tenni (transported) and isekai-shoukan (summoned) that the nips being transported with their own previous lives' bodies do in fact look like nips. Who would have thought?
>>282946524>>282946929>nips look like nips NANIII?! MASAKA! BAKANA!
>>282946524>>282946929>>282947099ARIENAI!
>>282947099That’s a stupid argument considering most love interests in anime look nothing like real Japanese women anyway.
>>282946524self-inserts for the target demographic
You’re all fucking stupid. They look like that because neon green hair would look gay and retarded. Nobody considered that black is just a cool color?
>>282946524>>282946929would.
>>282949133would what?
>>282949799sex them, duh
>>282947194Because man and women are different anon
>>282950129compelling argument
>>282946524The Japanese realized anime characters actually do look like white people and panicked and corrected to hard.
>>282946588can you stop being black please
>>282946524Anime mostly focuses on female art. The males simply have less thought or budget going into them, so many times they just come up with a generic looking MC and roll with that. But it isn't always the case since a few male leads have actually been well done.
>>282949769>OMG! They are all GGO-Kirito clones! GENERIC!
>>282946524>>282946929I generally like the look. The colorful, venom-haired shounen MCs are cringe and have no place outside of flashy, loud shounenshit.
>>282946524Easy to draw.
>>282950167It's a pretty straightforward argument if you live on earth and are part of society.
>>282946524because their purpose is either highlighting the beautiful love interest and other girls by juxtaposition, or just to be average.
>>282946524Because everyone copies each other.
>>282946524>why highschool guy look like highschool guy>>282947194If we're being nitpicky then there are probably different designs for guys in some of these series (TTGL, Soul Eater) maybe it's a shonen thing
>>282946524>>282946929This is why yuri will always be considered superior
>>282946524It's the safe "cool" looking version of the average japanese boy. Boys watching will relate to him/want to be him without feeling like he's something they'll never be.
