| Strong first post. >> Not just in action genre, but its like that in most anime. Great MCs are rare these days. Fragor said: you implying that Ed Elric is a bad MC ?* No do not kill him/her * whine and some more whine. |

Fragor said: Is there actually anime action animes where the main protoganist actually has some freaking balls to kill people ?!?!!? It's getting on my nervs to not find many animes after 5 months of watching to actually be able to see when they kill people in action animes instead of * No do not kill him/her * whine and some more whine. I dont recall Ichigo whinning about battling . I dont recall Naruto seriously complaining about battling . I dont recall Revy complaining about killing . |

OMG! I'm not much of a grammar Nazi, but damn dude. If you consider yourself an anime fan, at least know that the plural form of anime is "anime." |

| Watch Hellsing, Alucard is probably the character you're looking for. |
| ^This. It sounds to me like you're referring to the typical *battle shounen*, and not * action anime * in general. |

| Whiny character with good backstory>Generic badass |

MEanimaniac1 said: Hands down. A generic badass might be cool at first, but once the adrenaline rush/novelty runs out, he's got nothing. Unless, of course, his character develops. But "generic" implies he won't have that luck.Whiny character with good backstory>Generic badass |

"Whiny" characters are often much more interesting than generic "good guy" murderers. And they actually start out in a much better position to be developed as characters. |

Forgetfulness said: Shiro was whiny? Nah, he was more stubborn and naive than whiny.Yeah, it's annoying, but no one is forcing you to watch it I guess a "whiny" character with development can be alright (like Shirou from F/SN VN) but there are some whiny characters that are annoying all the time (Yuki from Mirai Nikki) |

| Ganta from Deadman Wonderland was a pretty good 'whiny' character. |

| I think that only shounen protagonists whine, can't really see this element in seinen action anime. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |

I think it may be both, but more focused on the 2nd one. It is annoying, but it can't be helped when you are watching a shounen battle between 15 year olds students. |

| I dont generally have a problem with whining characters unless they're the MC and they're male, I can understand crying if they lose someone, but not if they lose a fight or something and they're just like "fuck it man, I can't do this shit, better kill myself". Fuck that. |

| i'd hate to find out Gut's body count as far as whiny.. Shinji is often referred to as something like a shit-eating whiny ass cunt. It took me several watches of NGE to feel bad for him. The kid got a raw deal in life and deserves to be a whiner. |

| It's uncommon in shounen, but you'l see it a lot more in seinen |
| sexual incest in nisomonogatari - no one bats an eye romance incest in SAO - everyone loses their minds |

| Yeah,Ganta is a bitch. He is 14 years old,he should just man up and kill people because that's what normal 14 yo-s do these days apparently. |
