People clown on "literally me" edgelords these days.I think normalfags have realized that characters like 8man or bunnygirl MC are just self-inserts for friendless 14 year olds, and shows like theirs probably wouldn't work anymore
>>284092727I've not seen the entire show but Ayanokoyisomething didn't seem like the typical literally me edgelord to me. Like wasn't he genetically modified to be super smart and unassumingly and subtly manipulating situations and people to his own agendas?
>>284092727So? What the hell's wrong with that? Why can't 14 year olds have their chuuni fantasy characters and shallow waifus? Not everything has to be high art.
>>284092864You can still be "literally me" despite an outlandish background. The whole point of the literally me meme, the /a/ variant at least, is poking fun at how the young people that watch these shows look up to these sorts of characters tailor made to serve as a "cope" of sorts for less popular or less successful dorks by framing shortcomings as a hidden strength.I am not a friendless loner, I'm just purposefully avoiding these cretins who are beneath me. I'm super smart, I just hide that fact because I don't want drama or I don't see the need for the effort. I'm not unpopular with the opposite sex, they're just not genuine or are just shallow so it is I who doesn't have interest in them.All that said, it's not like there's anything wrong about stories like these existing. Just like anon here >>284092888 says or what Bobby B says in Sopranos: it's so that "the 95 pound weaklings can have some hope".14 year olds can have their chuunishit, they can grow out of it or stay maladjusted, but it's not like you /can't/ watch these shows or have fun with them either way.
It sounds like you don’t have any real criticisms of these characters, just criticisms of the people who enjoy them. Which is disgustingly cancerous and unhinged. Take a break.
