Regenerate Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Makoto. I want to kill him so badly. Now I know why they have bad ends in the School Days series... SO I CAN KILL HIM. Quote
Soulless Watcher Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Shirou from F/SN, it's a damn shame that Kinoko Nasu didn't stay with his original ideas. Quote
AdventSign Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Shirou from F/SN, it's a damn shame that Kinoko Nasu didn't stay with his original ideas. What were his original ideas? Quote

Deep Blue Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 takeru from muv luv, shirou was bad but meh there are parts where he does some cool things. Quote
FamishedPants Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I like Yuuji as a protagonist to the point where I can't believe people disliking him is anything but some weird meme I'm not privy to. Most interesting MC that I know of, at least, and his flaws are warranted considering how he came to be. While I would never agree I can at least understand the reasoning behind disliking Rance, despite him being best gril for sure. But anyhue, I think Subaru is literally the worst sack of crap ever put in an MC's shoes. Honestly there is nothing redeeming about him at all, though I guess he does get his just desserts (Game ALMOST makes me feel sorry for him). Quote
Decay Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Yuuji is a pretty unpleasant person with some disagreeable viewpoints but at least he's really entertaining. I wouldn't want to hang out with him IRL but he's fun to read about. The protagonist from Wanko to Kurasou is like a far less entertaining and much more pompous version of Yuuji (as far as personality goes), he's a pretty hateable guy. Quote
suikashoujo Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 My least favorite is almost definitely Takeru from Muv Luv. Granted, I didn't like Muv Luv much to begin with, but having to deal with him for three whole games was borderline unbearable. Even in Alternative he pissed me off. I wasn't a fan of Rance either, but Yuuji was alright. Quote
JuicyYuuji97 Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Masayuki from a profile, an indecisive bastard that takes waaay to fricken long to make any descisions Quote
Deep Blue Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 I forgot to mention Kuze Shuuichi from Ef, he is a really dick character overall Quote
Decay Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Sigh. No, you're right. Yuuji is cool. Yuuji is snarky, sarcastic, lucid. Suspisciously, unbelievably so. He's so smart and capable, yet everyone around him is so dumb. What a stud, waking up every single day at 4:45AM and running 16km before school even starts. How can anyone resist Yuuji? He's so perfect, in that imperfect way modern society loves. Strong, composed, always knows the answer. He's there to show the others can stupid they can be or that they are not strong, both physically and mentally, as they think. He's so great - It's almost the role of everyone else in the story is to make him look better. Quote
Deep Blue Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Lol, pretty much. You forgot the part where every women he meets falls in love with him at a mere glance. To be honest 99% of the vns out there are like that not just this one. Quote
Decay Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 To be honest 99% of the vns out there are like that not just this one. Not really. Most bishoujo titles have many heroines that don't fall in love with the protagonist until you go on their route and interact with them more. But even among harem titles where they are super well loved, they've usually done something to at least somewhat earn it. You can point to Ikikoi where that isn't the case, but that game is pure garbage, so... Quote
Kaguya Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Takeda Akane from Hanachirasu. He's an effective villain, as you want the antagonist to kill him horribly within the first 30 minutes of the story. Not an enjoyable read, though. Huh, first time I ever hear about this- not like I talked too much about Hanachirasu, though. I absolutely loved Akane and was rooting for him all along, but what I'm surprised about is that it wasn't an enjoyable read. I rated it an 8 to stay more or less consistent to my standards, but on the enjoyment scale, Hanachirasu was an incredibly nice read that I'd suggest to most people. Have replayed the last scene several times, even with the suspense lost. Quote
Clephas Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 All moege protagonists who never seem to get past being kind-hearted 'normal' people or idiots. Quote
Funyarinpa Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 On the Yuuji debate, I think part of why he is loved so much is because people think his lack of compassion balances out him being a secret agent thing, he has great upsides and great downsides I do not see how any of this has to do with GamerGate, but I can say that the fact that he is pathetic about human interaction does flesh him out. He is fun to read about, but he casually hurls insults towards people on a daily basis and gets no punishment whatsoever. Not exactly the sort of person I would hang out with. Quote
HotTrax Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Have not read Fate/stay but Shirou's face pisses me off. also having only seen the anime, the dude from Chaos;Head seems like the biggest piece of shit Quote
julyan Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I've tried thinking of someone else aside from Itou Makoto, but I can't. >.< Quote
Deep Blue Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Have not read Fate/stay but Shirou's face pisses me off. also having only seen the anime, the dude from Chaos;Head seems like the biggest piece of shit well wait until you play and you will hate him even more then xD specially on the first route. Not really. Most bishoujo titles have many heroines that don't fall in love with the protagonist until you go on their route and interact with them more. But even among harem titles where they are super well loved, they've usually done something to at least somewhat earn it. You can point to Ikikoi where that isn't the case, but that game is pure garbage, so... I can't agree with this I just can't, even when they don't fall in love with the MC instantly they still do after a while without any explanation just because you are the MC... maybe 99% was a bit too much but it is like that.

castor212 Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I would say Takumi from Chaos Head, but the thing is, a character is great character if it intended to makes you hate it, so I didnt dislike the guy though I hate him, and I didnt dislike the fact that I hate him. Hmm, confusnig. Quote

I really don't see the relevance to that statement at all. It's like calling Shirou bad because he has red hair, or Kenichi because he carries a case around. It's just a thing they happen to have/do and I am unsure as to why that was even mentioned. Quote
