IpreferEcchi said: KreemCheez said: IpreferEcchi said: No. Female characters are actually made to be interesting. Judging by your username, I can only imagine why you would think that. =~= Aint even gonna take this thread seriously, you're obviously biased towards female characters, and lack the ability as to see why some of the most popular characters in Anime are male. I only like male characters that I see myself in. I've said that two or three other times. Therefore, it's a wasting a slot to put them in favorites. Favorites to me show what your taste in others is, not who you are. Putting males in my favorites would only show who I am. Just because you only like self inserts doesn't mean that others do. In fact most have Male characters in the favs because they like the characters and their personalities. |

@Bourmegar I know. I just wanted to ask why others put male characters in their favorites and state why I don't, but I wanted the title to be interesting. |

I put characters in my fav list because I just love the characters. And I have Males and Females in it. |

It does make sense to me due their anime popularity and their good act. Some of them are indeed trash and edgy. But that's what we are. A trash. |

Because anime is male-oriented, the male characters are usually more well-written, thus more popular. Also they're usually the main character, and main characters are usually the more popular characters in shows |

*cocks her sass guns* But I don't need to sass idiots here. Not worth my time. Well, OP has a valid Q, but I'm not sure if he was baiting people with it o not. Either way, the answer is simple: sexism. Women are seldom viewed as characters good enough to be written well. Their purpose is almost always to either serve a male, or antagonize him. There are very few women who are well rounded characters that exist independent of their male friends or family members. It also answers 2 other forum Qs - Why there are very few well written female villains, and why there is a gender imbalance in anime. |

Must be the most stupid thing I've read in a while. Not every male character is a self-insert. That is the protagonists job. And even then, they might not even be good characters and the fan-favorite. If anything, having only female characters as favorites is more weird to me. You don't resonate with female characteristics, approach and personality. If you think the popularity of male characters makes no sense, I have no idea what to tell you. >They're not even characters What does this mean? |

EcchiKnightDarek said: What? I mean the OP basically here says that the only value male characters have is as self insterts or inspiration. What does that have to do with sexism and female characters being badly written? If anything he would mean it as that it's female characters that are the only ones interesting... That's not the impression I got from his Q, but if that is what he meant, then simply ignore my comment. It's irrelevant to the thread then. |

Anime is supposed to immerse me, the male viewer. Not make me watch from the sidelines. |

I have a male best friend in my school years, so I prefer watching shows where MC's best male friend has lots of screentime in the story, like in Darling in the Franxx and Kenja no Mago. Those two series has 2 cool non-MC male characters like Goro and August. August has his own girl, and it seems that Ichigo too will be paired with Goro in the end, so I like series where there are other male characters in MC's group of comrades. |
I am someone that would like to watch a Harem Anime with 2 male leads that each gets their own harem company of girls from the main cast. For example, 1st male lead gets a company of 4 girls and 2nd male lead gets 2-3 girls etc. |

EcchiKnightDarek said: IpreferEcchi said: There is no reason to YOU. Does not mean there is no reason for other people. You can like male character, or well, characters in general for a variety of reasons other than aspiration or self insert. Inspiration, fascination, liking them because they remind you of someone you know, because they are simply likeable characters. There can be a lot more reasons than that, some very specific and personal. Not everyone watches anime to self insert as the MC and then look at tits of female characters, once you understand that fact, a lot of things will start making sense.EcchiKnightDarek said: IpreferEcchi said: That you are only capable of thinking with your dick?

IpreferEcchi said: And I like a male character that I can admire, be in awe, have an emotional bond and someone I could care for. Is that a self-insert? It can be, but doesn't mean it is.

So... the only thing in a character that matters to you is being waifu material? The reason for their popularity is simple. Most people have lives outside their genitalia. |

@EcchiKnightDarek if i didn't make sense, put it this way you're making it sound as though some guys just "aren't horny" which sounds like bullshit to me just cause you're good at resisting your sexual urges doens't mean you don't still think with your dick, that just means your better at denying it then again, like i said, maybe some guys do just have lower sex drives, idk, this is coming from a complete horn dog from 5 years old lol |

The top characters are usually the mcs of the most popular shows, so they tend to be male since shoujo and josei don't get enough love on mal. :feelsbadman: Also since waifu wars are a thing people who favorite females are often split between different girls from the same series while the favorites are more focused for males. As for them being a good character.....I mean I roll my eyes at some of the top male characters but some of them are fine like Guts and Onizuka. I am more likely to favorite female characters because I find them more relateable, so male anime viewers probably have an easy time relating to male characters. |

The only male characters I like are ones that I see myself in, so maybe that's why I feel this way. Not every male watches anime for self-insertion. |

Well i'm not a guy but i think your way of thinking about this is totally stupid. If a character is interesting then why not put he/she on the favorites? Regardless of being male or female. I mean, if you don't see why guys have male char. on their favorites then it may be because you just see female characters you are attracted to/would date as the most interesting. Unlike you, i do not think a lot of guys just like a male character just because they aspire to be like them, and yes because they are something they will never be and that makes them interesting and in some cases being a realistic and developed character helps to like them even more. I have already seen a lot of people like you here on MAL, nothing new~ everyone has their own way of liking the characters but in my opinion, your way is a dumb one even though i respect it. |

I think a good anime needs a great male protagonist like Jotaro Kujo, Spike Spiegel, Guts, but when the anime has a cowardly protagonist, a woman takes its place, such as Evangelion I think everyone hates Shinji but we love Rei and Asuka. Usually happens with the Slice of Life. |

That's funny, cause I recently saw a discussion about the majority of interesting characters being male, and how female characters exist mostly to fill the role of 'woman behind a man'. I think it goes down to perspective of a watcher more than anything, particularly their gender. By that I don't mean that males are more interested in females and vice versa (duh), but the fact that watchers look for different things in characters of same gender. Something that men find interesting in females can be flat out boring for women, etc. |
