I randomly thought about this while watching Beelzebub. What stereotypical/ unusual trope in anime/manga do you like, and why?

For me, it is the thing when an anime (main) character gets attacked by the villain with some random attack, but they are totally unfazed because they are used to even more severe attacks of the same type in their daily life.



I guess you could say that is kind of a part of me liking OP (overpowered) main characters lmao. But what about yall tho?

"I can't eat anymore" is probably my favorite trope.

And pout faces.

Why? Because I find them hilarious.

How can a trope be unusual and often seen?

When one of the characters in the series is an obvious fraud and tries to deceive everyone even tho it’s obvious they’re lying

(usopp, buggy, okabe, reigen, Kaido shun, that girl from chuunibyo love delusions)

Tournament Arcs. Simple but they're always fun, especially when you got odd matches from characters who don't get to fight as much.
My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

my favorite cliche is the accidental panty shot, from the front, back or sides.

how characters announce their moves before striking? “Kamehameha!” or “Bankai!”—i like those battle cry.
Cicadas in Summer, Nothing says “it’s summer” like the incessant sound of cicadas buzzing in the background. I like it specially in mystery anime.

The Power Of Friendship: When all seems lost, friendship prevails. How i wish this was true in real life..
The bad guy who eventually joins the hero’s team. Shonen Jump series love this trope.
Just like himekawa will
Also do you know himekawa is the most beautiful man in the anime with his hair down.. He is also filthy rich..

I guess I like some of the romcoms cliché such as the two mains ending up in the same club/house/school after bumping head with each other earlier :)

not enough cliche, accidental stripping is where it's at.

Panties/Pantyshots.

It was a big reason I got into anime in the first place, as it's something I like a little too much and isn't something easily seen or found in my country's media.

One of my favorites is not anime-only, but the adult person (mostly a man, except for Balsa for example) suddenly has to take care of a child. Plus points, if they are grumpy with a really good heart underneath.
Took my heart in Moribito, in Somali and the Forest Spirit, but also and especially The Last of Us and Witcher. And I love the family vibes in Witch Hat Atelier.

In romances: natural slow-burns. Not being overdone with jealousy or so, just the natural progression between people getting close to another.
