That means all the Heroines are fat.

Yes or No?

How fat?
Obesity is nothing to be proud of, it's ugly.
Idk why but in anime dudes can be represented as slim, slightly chubby or absolutely obese but when it comes to chicks it's either slim or absolutely morbidly obese..
But on topic: probably not..

I guess we can start with 25 BMI? Which is just classified as barely overweight.

Most anime girls are around 155-165cm and around 50Kg. The lowest is probably 40Kg You can check VNDB .

Honestly I am not saying I am supporting anything , I personally like anime the way it is. I am more curious if there are people that don't enjoy anime because of the way it is.

Thats only a fat guy right? Honestly the problem with the guy is a Dwarf.

He's 134cm tall. The girls in the anime is more than 20cm taller than him

http://accelworld.wikia.com/wiki/Arita_Haruyuki

56Kg on a guy with 'average' height for a japanese male is actually pretty slim.

If they didn't make the character's personality something that is heavily influenced by their weight in an extremely unbelievable manner then I might watch it. Most fat male protagonists I've seen in manga were depicted as failures in life and generally disgusting otakus.

I'd like it if the authors of such work didn't implement such ridiculous stereotypes into their stories, but I guess that's what anime and manga are usually all about.
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives.

I was thinking a serious drama with a bit of comedy maybe the main protagonist could have anorexia and wouldnt actually be fat, but would often be shown like that because that's how she sees herself and it could be about what its like having a body image disorder. I'm just saying what comes to mind lmao
but I mean, I could see an anime like that being interesting.

Thats kinda interesting . I guess the character would kinda be a motivated version of Watamote.

25 BMI isn't even fat.

Considering everyone's 'waifu' ranges from about 18-22 at MAX. 25 would be enough to look different.

The main dude in Accel World is around 31. He's drawn almost like a ball.

I find it interesting we need a plot because there are plenty of people in real life that are fat . Don't workout and eat a lot would be the most simple explaination for most . But in the anime world where about 2% of the population is fat , we need to come up with plot reasons.

Bro, Anime are set in Japan. They are Asian. It's more common for them to be underweight than overweight. Don't work out? Their metabolism still makes them skinny.

Fuck the Accel World kid. He's not drawn realistically, both height and weight.

Anime set in Fantasy land , Anime set in Fake Germany , Anime set in Future.

All have the same no. of fat people. I like it that way , but I am just saying , its not limited to 'Anime set in Japan.'

Hes 31?
My dad says he used to be 28 (now he's 25) and I don't remember him being all that fat or anything..
I guess I've got it wrong then.

In that case I change my answer to 26-28.

If they're chubby like Kanako or the girls of Chubbiness or other Marshmallow Girl groups, sure, but SSBBW is a no. Chubby is hot, morbidly obese is not.

I guess everyone has a certain 'range' , some people like as big as can be .

I'm in the thinner the better, flat or plot is fine.

I don't think Japan has ever made a SSBBW character . Not even their Orc demons are that level.

I thought that was part of the main appeal of Anime. Can't find a fat girl even if you tried.

What are you asking for? First you say you want it to be realistic because there are more fat people in the real world but Anime is set in Japan, targeted towards Japanese people. Therefore, most characters will be skinny.

I wouldn't watch a show if either was portrayed as fat, like Accel World. I hate that MC, half decent show, but he ruins it. Obesity is not something that should be accepted as ok, it's not.

Yeah exactly, if he was a short fat badass, I would probably finish it. It's currently on hold atm since the story is still interesting.

Cant remember any other plus size beside the breast area.

If we're using the Asian definition of "overweight" set at a BMI of 23 I think it could work. Although 25 is considered simply "overweight" in the US it's considered "obese" in Japan. Only around 3% of Japanese people have a BMI over 30 while around 30% of Americans have a BMI that high. These girls are considered overweight in Japan but white people of that size would be completely healthy.

I would watch it. I doubt it would have the same effect here, but it would still be fun to watch.

I don't typically like series that are "all-female" in the first place since they are usually moe shows that are just "meh" to me.

However I doubt I would watch a show with all fat girls. The problem is more in the fact that the author felt the need to make them all fat, it is almost undoubtedly very strained and poorly written. Like that comic book writer that decided to make a series with a fat female lead, I wouldn't be caught dead reading it. It is just a gimmick marketed to a certain crowd that wants to pride themselves on being "tolerant", meanwhile the material is shitty.

Having said that, if it turned out to be an amazing series, then sure I would give it a shot.

56Kg on a guy with 'average' height for a japanese male is actually pretty slim.
