| Personally, I almost dropped the anime solely because of Ranta. Mostly, I finished the anime because of Mary Update: omg, coincidentally, I am watching Shingeki no Bahamat and realized that the MC (Favaro) is exactly 100% the same as Ranta. Even the voice actor is the same! I did not feel disgusted at the MC like I did with Ranta. Interesting, I think it is largely because favaro was better directed. There is more to favaro than meets the eye, that is what I felt. That must be it. Ranta did not have any backstory, so his character felt empty. |

| He was certainly the crux of a lot of my issues. Unnecessarily antagonistic. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| He showed some of his good side by the end of the anime which made him less annoying for me . |
 |
| Do people really drop shows because of 1 character? And beside this Why do people hate him lol.. |
In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. | You know what I hate the most? People who aren't free. They're no more than cattle. |
| He was a douchebag, but I'd choose that over the dullness of most of the other characters any day of the week. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
geralt said: He was a douchebag, but I'd choose that over the dullness of most of the other characters any day of the week. This. I remember Ranta, but the majority of the characters I've already forgotten about. They made no memorable impressions, or for me anyway. |
 |
geralt said: He was a douchebag, but I'd choose that over the dullness of most of the other characters any day of the week. Ranta's development was good, but he got soooooooo much screen time during his douchebag mode, it made me sick. I was about to rate the anime a 2 and drop it at episode 4. |
|
| Ahh he was such an ass. Honestly the anime would have been infinitely more enjoyable without him. He even seemed to develop a little at one point, only to devolve back into his sexist, obnoxious, arrogant ways by the next episode. |
 |
| He was just another character trope that I didn't pay too much thought to. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| He is annoying, but annoying ≠ disgusting. One character like him isn't enough to make me drop something. I managed to watch both seasons of Code Geass with a self-righteous hypocrite, so I can handle a character like Ranta. |
| You're a louse, Roger Smith. - R. Dorothy Wayneright This is my fight! No Senpai, this is our fight! - Kojou Akatsuki & Yukina Himeragi  |
| He's definitely the most annoying (like, I wanted to smack him nearly every time he opened his mouth) in the group but I'm glad he―and my opinion of him―changed in the end. |
 . . . . . ✘ . . . . .DO NOT touch my rice. . . . . . I'm Asian. . . . . . |
| Nah. The thought of Grimgar without Ranta disgusts me more. |
| Sieg Zeon! |
geralt said: He was a douchebag, but I'd choose that over the dullness of most of the other characters any day of the week. Agreed. He's easily my favorite of the guys. If he had been more competent, actually pulling the team like he constantly says he is, I think people could've tolerated him better. |
| It would be boring without his interactions. |

QHassan said: It would be boring without his interactions. I think the show would of been much better if Ranta had a different personality. I would prefer it if he was more of a coward who endangered the team and redeem himself later on. |
|
| He was sometimes really annoying but at least in the end he kinda redeemed himself a bit |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
Pyromanical said: He's just a tsundere, I'm okay with that. I disagree. He is a perverted asshole and an obnoxious realist. |
|
geralt said: He was a douchebag, but I'd choose that over the dullness of most of the other characters any day of the week. Well he was entertaining, I'd give him that. I'm ok with Ranta, although him being a pervert was too much. I hate Merry, I hate Haruhiro, I hate Shihoru. Yume made me finish that horrible show. Moguzo cooks good food. Manato is hot and dead. Bow |
   |
| Yume is love. Ranta is supposed to draw a lot of aggro but also helps get things done, so I appreciate him for that. |
Pyromanical said: How is that different from the MC then? MC is a perverted realist (minus asshole part), and he's completely different because he's able to supress his sexual desire a bit more? Your argument relies on Ranta before his character development, since he became noticeably less of an asshole over time. The asshole part really bugs me. Yes, MC is more likeable because he is able to suppress his sexual desires a lot more. I almost dropped the anime on the 4th episode because Ranta had so much screen time. |
|
| Nope, I just love to hate him. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |

| I was indifferent to him at the beggining, but later I liked him due his character being realistic (he is a jerk who is only in the group to fulfill his goals rather to being in it to making friends). It was a breath of fresh air having a protagonist being selfish rather than having the happy-go-lucky group who always win using the friendship. His development at the end was also nice. |

| I hated him. But some of his action were reasonable imo. Otherwise, he was completely hateful D: |
| Nope. Strangely enough, he's my favorite character. He's a character with a lot of flaws but my intuition tells me that there's more to him than that. ^^ I know he's perverted and a jerk. It's funny that he's one of the reason why I enjoy reading the fan-translated LN right now. |
| Nope, I never hated him and his actions never annoyed me. He's a good character like the rest characters. |
| Did anyone know that Ranta is the exact same character as the main protagonist in Shingeki no Bahamut? Even the voice actor is the same! |
|
| I watched bahamut long time before hai, so yes the image of favaro popped instantly when i heard ranta's rants. just watched 1 episode so i won't use "disgust" on his character, but more on his oppai monologue. You don't have to pick on girls' oppai just to portray an obnoxious character. Just imagine if their position is reversed, how would a girl commenting on boys' dick size sounds to you? |
 |
| Girmgar won't be complete without ranta |
"Kono omoi wo keshite shimau niwa Mada jinsei nagai desho?" |
Kadena said: Honestly don't know why people hate Ranta so much. In the end he develops really well and stays true to himself. In fact, I'd prefer that than have a boring character such as Manato. So what if his personality is being a pervy jerk, guess what? He doesn't give a shit. It's called being yourself. Would it be annoying if I had to deal with him? Yes, but in the end I just see him as a male Tsundere, because that is exactly what he is. Is he sexist? Nah, and even if he was I wouldn't care. If people think otherwise, there are plenty of sexist female Tsundere's, so I think its a nice change of pace. In the end, Ranta as a character wouldn't be half as entertaining if you replaced his arrogant, pervy character with a sugar-coating, be-gentle-with-me-senpai, happy-go-lucky, believe-in-yourself, power-of-friendship personality. I would of preferred Ranta as a villain. Better yet, make him a selfish prick who redeemed himself at the end |
|
| The show would suck dick without him. Sure, he can be annoying, but people are like that. |
| Ranta is the best character in this series. |
  |
| ranta is the one making this emo noob party a bit more bearable it increased my score from 1/10 to 2/10 good shit |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| He was shit and annoying. He totally does not fit into the group. After manato "left" he should have moved away as well. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| At least he had a character :/ The rest were very bland. |
| Quite the opposite. Might because I like his voice actor but he is easily the most likeable character. The rest are so bleh, especially Haruhiro, his monologue are just pure cringe. |
