Which Character archetype annoys you (esp. as a love interest)?
| There are certain character archetypes that are widespread in romance/harem anime. Most (if not all) of them are usually in love with main guy. The following are archetypes I can think of: 1- Tsundere : Angry, violent, usually has red hair and often the main girl 2- Childhood Friend : Usually friend-zoned, Almost never wins 3- Athletic Girl : Short hair, Tomboy, Overactive, Loud 4- Highschool Senior : Usually Student Council President, Calm, Composed, Graceful 5- Loli : Obsessed with her small boobs, Often too young 6- Younger Sister : A sister who loves her Onii-Chan VERY much 7- Clumsy Airhead : Has huge boobs, Only reason for existence is jiggle physics I like Tsundere (especially if done right) But really hate the Loli & Little sister as love-interest Please give reasons for your choice if possible EDIT: Some people are asking why I didn't add the bland, generic beta MC. Its because that would have been the most obvious choice for almost everyone. So I decided to exclude the MC from this poll. So in that case please vote your 2nd most hated character type |

| The worst kind of character is the one that is to afraid of talking or don't have iq enough to do so. So they are going around and suffering. And when they got the balls to talk it is already over and 10 years have pasted. Romance anime in a nut shell. |

| I really hate childhood friends fuck them |
Aslt said: I really loathe that imouto bullshit. Tsukasa Fushimi is a pretty disgusting guy if you ask me. Yeah agreed. I also don't understand this obsession of anime with little sisters |

And when they got the balls to talk it is already over and 10 years have pasted. Romance anime in a nut shell. Yeah so true. Most romance anime keep pussyfooting and don't get to the point, leaving things unresolved |
| Other: the retarded girl. That girl who is in her 14-20s but still speaks, sounds and behaves as she was 6, has no single clue where the hell she is standing and think the whole world is pink coloured. |
| Tsundere's, Mainly because they all act like they've got a dick stuck up in their anus |
| What annoys me is the whole idea of interpreting characters as archetypes and then stopping and looking no further, actually. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| Yeah, only Good Kuudere I can think of is Urara Shiraishi from "Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo" |
| Kuudere are so damn difficult to handle... The legal childhood friend should win. +f Linda... rest peacefully in the friendzone... |
 |
| Well fuck I misread the thread nvm >_> Was sitting there wondering "Is everybody really responding to this thread with stuff they hate." Oh well, guess I'm a dumbass. Hmmm, kuudere or dandere, probably, but I wouldn't say I hate them. Of the listed ones, high school senior would be my least favorite.

Same, but usually it feels like it's people who dislike the archetypes that do this more than anybody to me ._. |

| Love your younger sister = incest?! Something that really is bad Also yandere types annoy me |
| The tsundere...They are starting to bug me But I love the shy girls and the clumsy airheaded girls sometimes they are so cute that it hurts |

| Ill go with other. Idk, no one comes to mind. I like them all, no one annoys me that makes me mad or go crazy or something. But ya I just remembered one. Weak MC. Its so annoying. |

 兵家 "Green how I want you green. Green wind. Green branches." |
| Any character who is so bland that he can be categorized into a simple archetype can be annoying |
| ppl don't think their opinions be wrong, but it do. |
| I think "dense male MC" should be amongst the options, and not just as "other". They are too common and too annoying to be ignored in this poll. |
 |
| Either childhood friends or athletic girls. Childhood friends are usually too shy to be even taken seriously and if you add to it typical beta anime protagonist it just become unbearable Athletic girls are on completely other end of the spectrum and are so hyper that just looking at them is tiring. |
 |
| tsunbitches are pure cancer fuck them |

| I would not approach a Yandere, they are just annoying. The obsession for someone makes them crazy and unbearable. |
 |
| The ones i Hate the most are lolis and shy childhood friends 1- Tsundere : I hate when MC fears them and is easely beaten 2- Childhood Friend : I just hate thet they never say anything like Ichigo also when they don't give up after being rejected many times 4- Highschool Senior : Hate when suddently becomes a Tsundere 5- Loli : They are anoying, and too Small, hete when they are the childhood friend 6- Younger Sister : If she were not a loli and not a relative i would be interested otherwise it's sick |

I was going to put Dense, bland MC in the poll. But then 100% of the people would have voted for the dense MC. Aww...no 'generic male degenerate' option to choose? I'll have to go with underaged, obsessed with her generic sorry excuse of the protagonist 'brother', thot or boobs-for-head airhead (usually blonde). After consideration, the filthy blonde wins the "you're pathetic" trophy...Right after the inofficial generic mc. |
 |
| None. I don't judge characters by reducing them to their bare archetypes. |
 |
| Fuck Tsunderes except Sawachik Eri, the rest are cancerous. |
 |
| I would say fuck tsunderes but they annoy me whereas lolis make my skin crawl with disgust so lolis (which usually are also little sister types so both I suppose!) but I like athletic girls and childhood friends, they tend to be sweet (and not creepy) |
 ☆ My Anime Challenges ☆ My List ☆ |
| I dislike the whole loli and little sister stuff. The clumsy airhead can get annoying but not disgusting like the other two I previously mentioned. |
Though we are parted, If on Mount Inaba's peak I should hear the sound Of the pine trees growing there, I'll come back again to you. |
| All of them can be annoying tbh Depends on the story I don't find anime character annoying based only on archtype. It's based on how they get involved in the story. |

| Tsundere annoys me most of the time. Not always though. And they seem to almost always beat every other girl in romance. |
Least degenerate visual novel enjoyer.  |
| Tsundere ofc. Why can they get away for all the bad temper, bad habit, hitting males even though it is usually her own damn fault just because she looks pretty? |
| Tsundere (I feel like they're mostly dying out) and bland male protagonist. You can add flustered innocent wifu in there as well. |
 |
| 1,2, 5, and 6 because they're severely overused |
 |
| Tsunderes. There are a lot that are done right, but also a lot done wrong. I mostly have mixed feelings when it comes to them. |
| Tsundere in nutshell. It really drive me off seeing generic Tsundere in romances. |
| Just imagine if there is a girl acting like a tsundere in real life. |
 |
| Emotionless archetypes. And no, I don't think I can consider them as kuudere. But seriously Ayanami Rei clones are just nuisances too me. |
 |
| Definitely the younger sister. Especially when theres a creepy incest component. |
| Definitely younger sister and lolis. They're often cute characters but I don't like seeing them as love interests... |
| Athletic Girls like Minori Kushieda (Toradora), I can't deal with those kind of characters. |
