Why are most of the men in this anime jerks?

Yeah, I think the main problem here comes from you. You're twisting peoples ' good intention into some evil intent, seeing good peoples as bad after interpreting everything wrongly; and then you blame them for your wrong conclusions as if they were in any way responsible for it, before complaining that they don't grow up from your delusions.

Fact is, they can't grow up from what you complained because they aren't like that to begin with.
Also you say "all male characters besides lutz" and then only give two which is like, 10% of the important encountered male characters at this point.But that 10% somehow become "all except one".

So you also have a major problem with generalizing and exaggerating everything as well.

Also I wish that all peoples in our world were as good in general as the peoples of this show tbh. World would be way better.

Okay, I'll edit my post. I'm sorry. I'm just tired and angry about this anime in general, especially the second season I just watched. I didn't mean to imply that I wanted them to die, I was saying they need to fuck off meaning they need to get a life.

That's all. I won't quote you if you don't want me to.

Yeah... the problem here is you, i only remember that old man from last episode being a jerk.

What do you call them then? Rude people? Like how the fuck is Benno committing physical child abuse on Myne several times throughout the franchise not jerkish? You people just basically ignore and imposed your pollyanna view on the reasonings why I think these characters are rude people. Congratulations.

Please remind me when or how Benno commited physical child abuse

I don't remember the specific episodes and I don't feel like trying to find them. But I do remember a couple of instances of him abusing her in season 1 by flicking her nose and crushing her head. I think he even crushed her head somewhere or something but I know he hit her somewhere between episodes 1-3 of season 2 because I dropped the series after then. Like dude, you're dealing with a six year old girl who doesn't know any better and even if you count who she actually is, she's still a young person at the prime of her life stuck in a strange world. Expect some innocent naivety from her and get some character development on learning to teach people things about the negativity of real world gently.

cultural differences my friend. Benno's actions, like nose flicking or the head crushing aren't seen as that big of a deal in Japan, especially if you check a lot of manga that take place a long time ago. These actions are more akin to a spanking or scolding

Angry_Anime_Nerd said:


But doesn't this take place in Europe? They might not see those actions as acceptable unless they weren't that big of a deal back in the middle ages.

I wouldn't be surprised if you think looking at a kid is fourth-degree child abuse.

No, they're not "jerky assholes". You're just extremely bad at assessing situations apparently

Jeebus, it seems like all the male characters (barring Lutz) are jerkasses.

Gunther, is a terribly possessive father who tries to keep his daughter away from any other male she is interested in. Father of the year for god's sake.

Benno is an aggressive merchant who often verbally or physically abuses the main character when she makes the slightest mistake.

And what's worse about this is, THEY DON'T GROW FROM IT. Heck, none of the characters seem to go through any growth whatsoever. I don't know if this is due to the stereotype that men should be tough, assertive, and aggressive but jesus baby christ, that makes a character unlikeable. Not all men are this crappy.
