What are the worst Gary Stus you've ever seen?
This nigga was my childhood hero but definitely himNot a single duel lost ever
>>284465570Probably those isekai MC that get 100s of cheat skills(including damage and status effect immunity, AoE instant kills, skill stealing. 1000x XP gain ect.) for free.
Krai Andrey.
>>284469101Just started watching his anime, and yeah he's up there. He's fun though
>>284465570Imagine hating prez when he had a million flaws he simply covered up by studying and grades
>>284465570A thread died FOR THIS?>KenshinI dont remember he being uber powerful, he trained like a bitch>Prezi dont remember he excelling at al he tries his hand atOP I really dont think you even know what being a Gary Stu means. >>284469122>KraiThere is something ion that anime that keeps me watching even when I reckon its borederline trash. But I guess it doesnt shy away from its tactics, unlike other anime. Krai is the quintessential imposter, the guy has zero talents (or he doesnt acknowledge he having any) and he hets saved again and again by his artifacts, his friends and other misundertandings, I guess what i like about it is the mockery it does of the 5D chess player cliche, when a certain character seems at death's door, and then miraculously he pull an ace, and it suddenly turns out that the situation, and every possible variation was solved before the main event took place. Lets say its like a bland joke masterfully told.
>>284465570how is Kenshin a gary stu?
>>284468672Those guys obviously don't count because they're in another world. We're talking about real life anime characters here.
>>284465570Somewhere, a chill ran down Fujiwara's spine.
>>284469564Slaine deserved to win. Fuck eggboy.
ruffynaruto
thank you anons itt for not saying kirito. he's not a gary stu and never has been. i used to think /a/ is filled with pseuds who parrot ecelebs' opinions, but i was wrong all along. thanks for giving me hope that there are good people
>>284465570How about you actual provide a concrete definition of a Gary Stu? I've never seen consistent answers. Everyone seems to have a different definition. I can't provide examples of Gary Stus until I actually know what is and isn't a Gary Stu.
>>284465570Kenshin was a way better character back when he was a kid in Trust and Betrayal
>>284471771Are you serious?
>>284473908Go ahead and tell the class why he is one.
>>284465570Kenshin is not a gary stu, I don't think you know what gary stu means, he isn't even the closest hiten mitsurugi user to being a gary stu.>>284467845He's more like a messianic character with a half-competent deck. Team unicorn and Kiryu duels were bullshit though. Still, he grasped victory through earnest effort, went through the process of fall and rebirth in order to become stronger, and never shyed away from leaning on others.
>>284473826>How about you actual provide a concrete definition of a Gary Stu?Someone the writing bends over backwards for at every opportunity. Even when he fails it only works in his favor. His moments of weakness only make others like him more. Every other character is dragged along in his wake and doesn't seem to have much of a life without him. He never needs to grow in meaningful ways because it's the rest of the world that's wrong. He was born special and accomplishes things no one believed possible without sacrificing anything important. No character meant to be taken seriously dislikes him for long, and if they do hate him it's for silly reasons they come to regret later.Do people even know the term is based on a satirical fanfic anymore? It was made to sum up all the qualities of shitty self insert fanfiction. Now it's just "strong character I don't like."
>>284473974He wins every fight while Sanosuke jobs.
>>284465570Why do so many retards these days have a hard time telling the difference between gary stu and aspirational heroes? Is this a self insert kind of thing? Like if a character is good at anything at all or is the moral focus of the story they're suddenly "A GARY STU." This whole generation is brain rotted.
>>284474058So, not Kenshin>>284474066Joey Wheel- I mean Sanosuke Sagara jobs in a vacuum.
>>284474066>The hero wins is his show about sword fighting were losing would result in deathYou're an idiot.>Sanosuke jobs.Not really. He's got plenty of wins under his belt and all his major arc fights. You're an idiot.
>>284474162people always talk about 2nd characters as if they are jobbers when most of the time they are very capable people. I hate this trend of shitting on them.just look at yamcha. he was always strong, good looking womanizer, famous, millionaire and gets to fucks his shapeshifter cat every night.the only issue is that he's not strong as the strongest beings of the universe.
>>284474066he literally only "won" against Shishio with the help of 3 other guys and then Shishio killing himself by overheating anyway
Who was in the wrong?
>>284474312Enishi beat Kenshin
>>284474312hiko seijuro is the real GOAT of the series.
>>284474344neitherthat's why its a tragedy
>>284474268kill yourself. retarded faggot. he isn't garty stu, asuna is the real mary sue
>>284474421found the sao kiddie
>>284474421He kinda wasn't until he was. I think it was a combination of the number of women wetting themselves over him and the unique dual wield skill. If he had less women, or no unique skill, or even an unique skill that wasn't dual wield, he could've kept not being one until maybe alicization.
>>284474432>t. IQ <65 and sucks ecelebs' cock 24/7you do remenber that trannies online started the sao hate train? no sane person with IQ >110 hates SAO
>>284474477Any sane person with over 90 IQ who watched SAO only enjoyed it until they left SAO.
>>284474477>shit is so bad even axewounds hate ityeah that makes sense
>>284474501>>284474503can't believe i share this board with such pseuds
>>284474344>>284474407Kenshin. That's the tragedy. Hiko said it himself. The sword of hiten mitsurugi can only be used in defense of the innocent. As soon as Kenshin picked a side he went against that.
>>284474590What? Do you actually enjoy the Flyff and Cawadoody arcs?
>>284474225I agree most of your post but Yamcha was a heavy jobber even back in Dragon Ball; he existed to show off how strong other people (the Mummy, Jackie Chun, Tien, Kami in Hero's body) were.
>>284474927That's called a Worf.
>>284465570Kenshin fits in this, how?
>>284474690kenshin fought for a side looking to uplift the defenseless and wanted to remove a system that took advantage of the innocent for its own endshe picked the side that stood for an ideology closest to his sword master's philosophy
>>284474945Doesn't, OP is probably from /co/ and isn't used to his main characters not being whining incapable faggots.
>>284465570>yeah bro just wageslave for 4 years then you would get to be the stronkest without actual effort
And no I'm not a Jeannefag
>>284474983And he was an idiot for doing so. Here's how it works; you see some bandits accosting a farmer village? You fight them. You see soldiers picking on the downtrodden? You fight them. YOU DO NOT pick a side in a political shit show and empower the people who are just gonna do the same shit that started the war in the first place.
>>284475051>just keep killing until everyone who disagrees with you dies anon
>>284475051anon you do understand even kenshin's master realized this is a fucking retarded philosophy right?
>>284475124>>284475050Who let the fatefags in?
