| Is there a stock character (stereotyped character, archetypes, etc) that you actually like seeing in anime and manga? And if so, which one? There are a ton of them that are constantly recycled in this medium, especially in shonen. And while most people hate seeing stereotypes, I've seen certain others argue that some of these characters can be very entertaining. Your thoughts? |
| The cute, easily flustered personification of moe. E.g. Mio from K-on, Onodera from Nisekoi, Hinata from Naruto. Give me that **** through a portacath. Must protecc |
| I like nyandere, bakadere, and deredere characters the most. |

The refined and elegant Yamato Nadeshiko shrine maiden with a hime-cut like kaguya, sunako, kikyo, hinata, tomoe and yumeko.      |

| I like down-to-heart characters with pessimist traits, such as Araragi Koyomi and Hikigaya Hachiman. |

| Ok I think you just made me fall in love with OHOHOHO girls🗿 I can't recover from this... |
Naga the serpent is the queen of the Oujo laugh.   |
| I always loved sarcastic female kuuderes. |
| If you have time to think of a beautiful end, then live beautifully until the end. ” -Gintoki Sakata |
| Bakadere are (almost) always the best girls. |
| I'm a fan of the shoujo character type introduced in Princess Knight, inspired by Takarazuka, and popularized by The Rose of Versailles. TV Tropes calls it a "bifauxnen." Other examples include Utena and Sailor Uranus. |

| Idk if it's an archetype, but i love male characters who i would describe as the epitome of cuteness in my own messed up way (ie: lelouch, yosuke hanamura) |

| Mentor character Female: Natalia Kamiński Asako Kusakabe Male: Elias Ainsworth Askeladd |
| the dumb girl with big boobs is my favorite type |
    |
| The small violent tsundere character |
| The moe boy (but not overly whiny) The badass girl (but not the yandere type or cutesy until not type) |
 |
i'm most fond of dark-haired, Japanese girls-next-door (such as my Wife) and Red-Headed Ditzes are indeed quite charming to me as well... |

| Yep. I like witty, sarcastic and smart characters a lot. Characters like Kaiki and Senjougahara from Monogatari, Odokawa from Odd Taxi, and Makise from Steins; Gate are all liked by me because of how smart and witty they are. |
 |
| tomboys, short hair girls, tsunderes, feminine looking boys, etc. |
 |
| the older sister type. Extra points if she's already in college and drinks a lot of alcohol. |
