I hate it when the good guys are completely outclassed by the enemy. But then they go off and train for a week or learn a new technique and suddenly they can compete on the same level.

I much prefer when a good guy is way more powerful than a villain but is taken out of the equation by some clever means. And then a weaker good guy has to step up to the challenge.

extremely beta MCs who not only are spineless herbivores but constantly sabotage the girl with their obliviousness and self-doubt who's always out of their league and always absolutely BEGGING for his cock
it was okay when Evangelion did it in the 90s but these romcoms are just getting more and more ridiculous and they need to be stopped

Its an action mangas, just get to the point already. You are just putting words that says nothing relevant.

I feel like if you give your protag too much focus and attention you end up with a Naruto problem, where the episodes he's in tend to suck the most. I prefer a balanced approach.

There are titles where the main character is awesome and gets enough attention but manages to coexist with a fun side cast
Purely a skill issue
>>
>>288215230
It helps that Tokio is technically one out of three protagonists.
His last hairdo is awful too. I would rather have him be bald lmao.
>>
>>288215322
I think it drives a point he fought on front lines for 3 years protecting literally the entire Nanasu, he doesn't have time to look after himself. Probably shaved bald at one point and this is an aftermath.
>>
>>288213730
He's a shit protagonist because Gaygay wanted the sadboy self-insert faggot with the ghost gf to be the protag but he was forced to change it so he constantly mistreated Yuji to the point he was barely ever a protagonist. But this is just a tiny drop of water in all the shit that makes Fujotsu Gaysen garbage.
>>
>>288212479
Very much
>>
>>288215427
Actually, he wanted to replace Yuta with Megumi, with Yuji as a side character. But apparently, he found Megumi so milquetoast he upgraded Yuji to MC status. This is like the one moment where gaygay was correct lmao.

JJBA, my beloved. But then again, that's how classic shonens heroes used to be, as they were closer to western superheroes until Dragon Ball came in.

Literally all every single character does in the entire manga is aura farm.

Oh because when shit goes south he doesn’t immediately get some “you hurt my friend I’m angry!” power up? Yuji mogs the likes of Yusuke, Naruto, Ichigo, Deku and Tanjiro.

Yuji literally got stronger after seeing all of those innocent people die at Shinjuku and witnessed Nobara “die”. Try harder.

What the fuck does this have to do with kgb fans being gay?
>>
>>288214329
the difference is that evangelion actually did it in an interesting way
plus shinji wasn't entirely spineless early on and instead did some banter, people always forget that one
>>
>>288218961
>Shinjuku
You mean Shibuya and no he didn’t, he literally is losing to Mahito even after Nanami is killed in front of him until Nobara shows up. Then she gets fucked and he gets his ass beat until Todo shows up, then he doesn’t even get a power up he just locks in and still Kenjaku shows up to completely fuck him. The only “power up” Yuji gets is at the very end when he unlocks Shrine, which was always going to happen, and even then he’s so inexperienced with it and it’s so underdeveloped that it doesn’t even do anything Sukuna is still fucking him up even in his domain Nobara and Megumi help him to finally win. Yuji is a good protagonist because he doesn’t get some gay asspull which is the only real reason he can move forward, he moves forward through sheer willpower and determination and never gives up even when his own weakness is shoved in his face over and over again.

Dumb anon, your image aside most characters like that are there so waifufags otaku don't feel cucked by the main character and buy more goods of the girl.

Goku on DBZ only had like 4 power-ups in the whole manga and one of them was about controlling his energy better.

He didn't get any kind of powerup in shibuya, besides the expanded combat experience.
His major powerup came afterwards

I dropped this because I kept getting pissed off at how much of a loser he is. I can give Webtoons credit in that their stock protag at least usually has a spine

i don't mind joke narrators, but general narrators who aren't part of the story proper as a POV character and just an omnipresent voice are everywhere and they're the fucking worst. especially when their line read has all the personality of a sponsorship read.
