Is Gojo really popular among female anime and manga fans, or is that just fan coping? I get that he has some appealing qualities, but in reality, the negatives far outweigh the positives.
In real life, women would likely reject guys like him long before he had a chance to show off his talents or “good” personality, especially attractive women who are constantly approached by confident, charming men and casually turn them down.

(in real life he'd have several girls)

All the benefits of a "I like him because he's nice" MC without the drawbacks of being generally rude and focusing on other girls for arcs at a time and not being six feet tall

Fans coping. Bisquefags doesn't want to admit it, but this series pretty much the usual wish fulfilment romcom only with a slight tweak.
There's nothing inherently wrong with these type of shows, but the fans tries to make it bigger than it seem and different from the peers by saying stupid shit like:
>"Marin is the self insert!! Gojo is the catch!!!"
>"This is a show for women!!!"
When in reality, the majority of Bisque viewers are men. And almost everyone who watched this only talks about Marin. Nobody cares about Gojo. Anyone who ever watched or a proper shoujos should be able to tell that Gojo is literally non character with 0 appeal for women when compared to actual attractive protagonist.

Compare it with his fellow Gojo (Satoru) from JJK. The series got plenty of sexy girls and good looking men, but not a single one came close to Satoru's popularity.
While in Bisque case, Wakana could've easily been replaced by someone else, and people opinion of Marin (and her series) wouldn't change in the slightest.

Are there any examples of women liking Gojo?
>>
>>283401343
https://youtu.be/pF1yqExVhC8?si=xDl6XD2SZ5RVg_KD

Here's a video essay on why women love the series and Marin in particular, with a section dedicated to why Wakana is such a likable lead for the female audience. I believe the words "perfect boyfriend" are used.

It was made by a woman so it definitely holds a lot more weight than anything anyone on /a/ has to say on the matter.
>>
>>283399897
You are failure loser who wishes was a bully
>>
>>283399987
See >>283401405

Women fucking love Sono Bisque Doll. Especially cosplay sluts. I'd honestly like to see its demographics because I'm willing to bet it's a lot closer to 50:50 than most male-targeted romcoms. I'd be surprised if it's anything less the 65:35 male:female. Marin is an icon among women who like anime and Wakana is extremely well-liked. Forever alone virgins on 4chan are literally the least qualified people in the world to have an opinion on this topic.

Reminder that harem protagonists are nothing like "nice guys" because they are actually sincere with no ulterior motives and do things on an actual impressive level and goes far beyond basic human decency. As well as having development and chemistry with the girl. When it's written well.

When it's done poorly its when they have hardly done anything and suddenly the girl is completely in love. Its about execution.
>>
>>283399897
Despite anon's claims to the contrary, women aren't a monolith just like men aren't a monolith.
To women who chase bad boys, Gojo is pathetic. Tall and big hands, but otherwise pathetic.
To women who want a supporting cute boyfriend, Gojo is literal wish fulfillment. He supports and engages with Marin's weird hobbies without ever judging her (he is in fact so supportive it can be detrimental to his health), is overall morally upstanding, can control himself while acknowledging the girl is hot, and, on top of that, he's enormous compared to her.

If you mean cosplay, that's Marin's hobby that she's dragged him into.

If you mean the doll thing, traditional craftsmanship that requires patience and dexterity in those big hands of his is hot as fuck on top of the mystique of a traditional craft itself. All those POV YouTube channels with stuff like dudes repairing old watches or playing traditional instruments or doing pottery have a significant minority of female viewers who just stare at the man's hands.

>>
>>283402808
Not IRL, and in the anime it'd cut female viewership by a lot.
>>
>>283402575
You of course gloss over the fact that whether women want a cute guy or a bad boy, the height and hands are non-negotioable

Nah they're negotiable, there are other traits that are valued sometimes more. there's a lot of internal tradeoffs as shown by dating app results.
The numbers there are pretty brutal.
>>
>>283402898
>it'd cut female viewership
do females even watch such heavy fanservice anime? i though they would get an ick from such shows. were they closeted pervert all along?
>>
>>283402912
>the height and hands are non-negotioable
They're negotiable but that's what makes Gojo wish fulfillment, he's very supportive of the not-self insert AND is tall and has big hands to grope women with (seriously, the amount of times I've seen "imagine those big hands on you" is unreal). There's no compromise.
>>
>>283403019
Depends if it's wife material or not. We'll fuck almost anything short of personal danger and a minimum of fertility traits.

Now if you go into it thinking "do I feel like sacrificing a considerable chunk of my potential future earnings into the products of her womb" the game narrows.
>>
>>283403047
The justification from women is that the fanservice isn't Marin being put in shameful positions, she flashes her body to Gojo very willingly and that's ""empowering"", since she does that intentionally.
>were they closeted pervert all along?
yeah

>>
>>283403184
hands are one of the most sexually dimorphic parts of the human body

e.g. in most physical aspects top professional female athletes are comparable to beginner male athletes. but in grip strength, they're only comparable to average untrained men.
>>
>>283403184
Hands and forearms, yeah
>>
>>283402898
Not if there were a secondary to thirst for.
Dandadan is like that, the MC is a good hearted manlet and some girls love that regardless, but many got hooked because of Jiji's greek god body.
>>
>>283403207
It's a common fantasy for some women to think of cheating to make their man jealous and come sweep her off her feet proving to her he's the better one.
Men find the whole premise disgusting, but it doesn't stop the fantasy.

Looks alright, reliable, has a hobby/skill that isn't playing shitty games, and most importantly, he's not a horny creep. He can hang out with girls without being gross (including his inner thoughts which we sometimes have access to). It's not that complicated. The bar is insanely low with manga/anime MCs and real life.

Just being tall makes him attractive, add the big hands and suddenly most of his defects turn into something good.

For a girl who is super into cosplay, a boyfriend who is conventially attractive, has his future figured out, can take care of you in every sense, genuinely likes you and is incredibly talented with skills that can directly support your hobbies is a godsend.

If the show was more realistic, Marin would have been draining Gojo's balls by force after the first dress to encourage him to work faster and diligently and stay loyal
>>
>>283407846
at least the doubts and fears Marin felt regarding Gojo felt somewhat real, she was/is used to getting unwanted attention from creeps or people that insult her hobbies and she could easily flirt with Gojo when they were getting to know each other, but once she fell in love everything felt way more serious and important; and it doesn't help that her only notions of "romance" come from fucking eroges
>>
>>283406841
Right? I thought /a/ liked Chad protagonists.

Why is it that I always see men having this discussion?
Women rarely say Gojo is anything other than a catch, not to mention the author of Sono Bisque herself is a woman and Marin is her thinly veiled self insert.

No, but this is also the worst iteration of playing a children's card game ever put to animation. Just before "I can magically create cards I need," since that shatters what little tension can sit on the suspension of disbelief in this genre.

he is tall and is really good at something. as long as you arent fat thats enough for most women.

Its too bad Marin's fears are played for laughs in the anime by playing some silly music in the background while she crying, thinking about how Gojo would reject her.
Marin finally shows some more depth and character conflict and the anime treats it as a joke.
