i came across this image and it made me curious as to which of these archetypes would be the most popular so i came here to ask you guys: which of these archetypes is your favourite? (or favourites tbh i know it can be hard to choose) explain your reasoning and add examples if you want :)

The most popular would be Tsundere. Do I even need to explain, b-baka!

Best example? Hitagi Senjougahara and Taiga Aisaka.

yesterday i found out a lot of ppl don't consider senjougahara to be tsundere and i kinda have to agree with them tho. she's too blunt and straightforward to be a tsundere

That's true, she is a self-proclaimed tsundere. Hitagi got some really weird mood swings that classify her as a "unique" tsundere character. Her tendency to be abusive and also ignoring people while being rude puts her in the tsundere quota.

Kuudere, dandere, loli and neko are my favorite female archetypes. I can also enjoy girls of Ojou-sama archetype, ohoho~ It's hard to say what exactly I enjoy on them. In case of neko/loli archetypes, it's the cuteness I think. I very much like cuteness. For Ojou-samas, I just enjoy their quirkiness I suppose, and their high class-like demeanor. In case of danderes I enjoy their aloofness and that they generally don't get too swayed by emotions, and act logically. Although if this is taken too far, it can be a turn off. They still need enough humanity in them for me to like them. With kuuderes I also enjoy that aloofness that they use to cover their feelings with, and it's especially sweet when it inevitably breaks down and their true feelings show up. They are very cute in that moment, and usually from that point on. Although the way in which they cover their feelings is cute in it's own right.

On the other hand my least favorite are tsunderes, and going hand in hand with them are kamideres. I don't like their abusiveness, and high and mighty approach to things, which is especially apparent with kamideres, but some tsundere fall to it as well. Humans are all equal. Although if done right both of these archetypes can be somewhat enjoyable, it seems to be rare for them to be done right. Kamideres are at least very rare, unlike tsunderes, so I still like them a bit more as a curiosity and something unusual.
I have no particular preference for other archetypes, I like them if done right, and dislike them if done wrong.

I have a general preference to kuudere, tomboys, robots (more along the lines of Mira rather than the dull Chii), and older sister

By the way, the person who made this clearly has not paid attention that Ui Hirasawa is legitimately the younger sister of Yui. Yes, Ui's behavior that is of an older sister stereotype, but a better example should have been used. Seeing as how there are multiple characters from the same series, gives me the impression that they haven't watched much anime and are lacking examples.

Loli 'looks far younger than age' - no that's a fake loli, real lolis are actual kid characters
moe as a character archetype? someone doesn't understand what moe means.
imouto = 'slow learner'? I've seen way more imoutos that are very capable than I've seen slow imoutos.

Fuck that, this chart doesn't even know what it is talking about. Whoever made it probably watched one show and generalized the fuck out of it. Half of these aren't character archetypes but more like attributes that if combined with each other can make up an archetype but on their own don't stand for any kind of specific personality. And some of those just have blatantly wrong/random descriptions that at best fit a small subset of what they try to describe.

and with all the random bs it included it managed to miss the best archetype, deredere. Such incompetence is baffling.

Seriously, this chart is garbage -.-
I probably regret this post by now.

I think all can be good and they have their moments.

I can't decide for 1, my 3 favorites would be: Nadeshiko (Belldandy and Nogisaka Haruka I think are this category), Bokukko (Konoe Subaru I think goes here) and Kuudere. I think that probably Nadeshiko is my favorite, but I like the other 2 a lot too.

Without a doubt a combination of Tsundere/Kamidere/Bokukko.

I don't think I could narrow it down to one type because people aren't really all that 1 dimensional.

Well that's kind of obvious it's just for the lol.
I mean put "fast learner" with a picture of Chii who is the exact contrary of a fast learner is a joke itself for all the persocom category

I consider myself to be a man of many tastes, so the only thing I can state are the archetypes I don't like lmao

bifauxnen, kamidere, aidoru, and mahou shoujo.

The only one that could really be taken out of this is Aidoru, but I'm having a hard time coming up with characters that I actually like that fill this role.
Bifauxnen is just weird. I find it hard to like a character that fills this archetype unless the character is a spoof on the archetype. Sometimes it works if it's a character's alter-ego (like Benio Yonomori)
Mahou Shoujo? idk. There's something about their decisiveness that leaves me with a headache. They are exceptionally good at crying and relying on others. Guess it comes down to me not having any examples that I actually like lol (similar to Aidoru). Most mahou shoujo animes only have 1 or 2 characters that actually fulfill the archetype without having other archetypes being more present, and typically I don't like them...

The worst archetype of all is kamidere though-- not to be mixed up with tsundere. If a character exhibits this behavior, I find it exceptionally hard to like the character even if their personality mixes in other archetypes that I do like. Kamideres get on my nerve. Superiority complex is NASTY and expecting special treatment leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Gotta be into some weird fetishes if you like the Kamidere.
actually... Kamideres sometimes work, but very rarely (and they will need to exhibit other archetypes). Nisekoi's Chitoge Kirisaki shows some Kamidere but it isn't overwhelming.

Forgive me for being too specific, but in addition to tsunderes I love the "workaholic tsundere".

Examples would be Satsuki from Konohana Kitan and Rize from Gochuumon wa usagi Desuka?.

Many of those descriptions lines have nothing to do with the name put on it.
"Moe "for example literally have every description lines wrong, except "often fawned over".
Tsundere has nothing to do with easily offended or secretly caring for others. Kuudere has nothing to do with logical thinking. Nadeshiko has nothing to do with wise & intelligent. Loli has literally every single line wrong. Bokukko just has the "speak boyish" correct, everything else is irrelevant. Meganekko just has "wear glasses" being correct, imouto just has "little sister" correct, and so on.

(and... seriously, wth with the spelling? Aidoru? Pasokon? Really now? )

I used to love tsundere archetypes but I lost my spark for loving them. For now, I see them as neutral like any other archetypes.

For now, I don't have a favorite archetype but anything is acceptable for me.

The only one I might despise is the Ayanami Rei clones. Not sure if I should consider them as kuudere.

Lol, the chart is really bad. Also, it's nice to see a thread where I can question others because of their love of abusive girlfriend kink.

As for me, I don't usually go with archetypes but if I had to pick one that would be tomboys.

Deredere isn't even on the list, smh.

Based on the descriptions, let's just mix...genki...aidoru...dojikko...chikyugai?

Boom. Doesn't really capture some of her more scheme-y, jealous or vindictive tendencies but eh, I do what I can. They certainly don't extend as far as to be yandere and that's pretty much the only thing that offers up such traits.

If I can only choose one, iunno, it'd probably be a coin flip between genki and dojikko, given deredere isn't on the list for some absurd reason.
