Thing is

Shinji and Yuki's dispositions make sense within the ridiculous context of their situations

People forget that when they immerse themselves in an industry filled with characters with severely inhibited amygdala's

Perhaps if the title used an "or" but it is requesting a character that fully demonstrates all of those characters more so than any other characteristic. All I see sticking to Suzaku is annoying.

Shinji is not a wuss, anyone who has seen the beginning of EoE will tell you that, I mean he went for it even though he knew he could get caught. He's alpha.

As far as I remember Shinji never admitted he is weak blatantly. Yukiteru, on the other hand...
I wouldn't finished Neon Genesis Evangelion if Shinji did something what Yukiteru did.

I'm thinking Raki from Claymore. He's the only one that actually made me drop a show. I hear he levels up in the manga, but he drove me crazy in the anime.

There are way too many anime where the guy is protected by girl(s) and contributes nothing. It's not any one individual that pisses me off, but useless guys collectively.

Sometimes they become useful in the end, but it takes one or more entire seasons for him to stop being a pussy.

That's why there are no male characters in my favorites. I choose one character per show to list (best / most interesting / want to see more of / sometimes just because they're awesome) and there are always a better girls than the best guy.

I hate, resent, abhor and detest the human-shaped turd known as Touma Inaba from Sakura Diaries. Not just because of what he did in episode 5 - I'm proud to say I figured him out straight away, and usually I'm not very good with predictions. But this guy made me hate him immediately. He's far, far worse that Makoto...

Sakura Diaries is a cheesy romantic comedy, and at first glance, Touma looks like a typical romcom male lead - clumsy, wussy, but generally good-natured and unassuming - "sure, he's kinda lame, but his heart is in the right place!" Only Touma is NOT good-natured or unassuming - he is a cowardly, spineless, annoying and arrogant wanker who thinks that he is hot shit, who thinks he is the "stud"

I would say Sahashi Minato from Sekirei. He just totally piss me off since I don't think he has done anything that requires a backbone while his sekreis is fighting for their lifes for him.

Second is Ikari Shinji

lol, Hercule has to be pretty far up there.. also lol at whoever said Kamina... trolllllllll


Shinji definitely fits the category of annoying for me, but I'm not so sure I would put him in a "cowardly/spineless" category considering all he has to go through.

Yukiteru. He is the reason I dropped Mirai Nikki. Humans adapt they don't act like a complete pansy when the same shit happens over and over.

Shinji I can understand since everything that happens just kept getting worse and worse until it literally can't get worse at EoE.

Yukiteru on the other hand....oh my psycho girlfriend killed someone again....AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

It's called desensitization please fucking use it.

I don't really find him to be spineless (based on only the anime so far), but he's probably one of the stupidest characters I've ever encountered in a series. I mean ...

Ok, but Yukiteru didn't just start out as some regular or anti-social kid getting dragged into things that involved murder, gore, knowledge of the universe, crazy obsessed girl. He started out as a VERY anti-social kid, maybe the most anti-social and all the stuff I listed jumped him at the same time. Besides, he has some redeeming factors. Soldiers trained for war leave with trauma that last a life time, it's a bit different in Yukiteru's situation.

Keitaro Urashima from Love Hina. I can normally sympathise with this kind of character but Keitaro is a complete idiot. I like Shinji Ikari btw. He is a very realistic character, there are many people like him in the world.

Genma Saotome comes to mind, he cowers in front of little ol' Happosai who is smaller than he is and he makes his son Ranma fight his battles for him. He also changes into his panda form to avoid confrontations. There's nothing more annoying than seeing a grown man act like a spineless jellyfish.

Shinji Ikari.
I used to think he is the most realistic character , in the series . His cowardice and wussiness is understandable.
But .. only until EoE ,His whimpiness took another level. Now i hate him even more than asuka

You definitely have not been watching the correct shows then.

Shinji?? Has nobody watched Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood? Envy is the biggest pussy out there. It's sneaky, slippery and becomes a total coward when faced against someone whom it can't overpower ( I.e Roy Mustang lol).
