Spotlight Character: Oyaji (Dennou Coil)



MAL Character Information Page: Oyaji


MAL Favorites: 4

For the next week I would like to have everyone familiar with Oyaji discuss what they think makes him an exceptional character. What attributes make him stand out in the ocean of interesting characters that exist in the realms of anime and manga.

Unlike the other two subjects I will not force this conversation to fall into any set structure. Characters that are nominated typically get here because they are adept at breaking the existing character molds and defying definition.

Because of this freedom I encourage everyone to do their very best to stay on topic and keep any and all debate civil. Have fun and I look forward to seeing what everyone has to say about this character.


RESULTS OF THE "YOU DECIDE" POLL

Oyaji did NOT get inducted into the club Character list:
02 Yes - 02.70%
29 No - 39.19%

43 I don't know this Character - 58.11% of the total number polled

What is this character again? But seriously I have watched and reviewed Dennou Coil but I just can't seem to remember who/what Oyaji was. One of the most unremarkable characters ever, seeing how I can't even remembers its existence. This is the first but I will have to give this character a 1/10 ^_^

Such a random character. I loved Dennou Coil but this guy... there's nothing to him. I remember he helped them find their dog one time but... that's it. 2/10.

Underrated and underdeveloped character in my opinion. Producers should've paid him more attention than to Densuke, imo :P One of several secondary/tertiary characters which potential was wasted. That's why I voted him in the first place. x/10

No... just no.
maybe he could have had potential if expanded more (his blush when introduced to Yuuko was impossibly cute) but at the end of the day he's no more than a piece of software. Even Amasawa's furry thingies did more in the show.

I wonder where's the person who actually nominated this character, because it's such a waste of a spotlight (>_<)?

I would have nominated Sacchi, because at least it had more lines (^_^) "Boku sacchi~"

Agreed. For me Sacchi stood out a lot more than Oyaji ever did in Dennou Coil. Even Densuke played a more vital role to the story. 2/10

Even though he is very polite and useful, he doesn't deserve a spotlight.
