| Who's an anime character that you very much like but who makes you go "damn they are such a loser" when you think about them? Probably an unconventional question but Reigen from "Mob Psycho 100" is one of those characters for me. I like his character, but he is such a loser. I don't even mean it in a bad way. If anything, being a loser is part of what makes him who he is, but when I say this to my brothers I don't think they can wrap their heads around it because they think I'm insulting him. Anyone else have a character they feel this way about? EDIT: This character doesn't need to be a literal loser. They can just be a loser in spirit! |

 There's no such thing as a "man of culture", you are a COOMER. Go outside. |
| The MC from a certain 90s mecha anime comes to mind. I do Like Shinji and I understand why he is the way he is. But god damn is he still a f*kin loser |
-insert NGE meme here- |
| Takao Kasuga, before his redemption arc, which wasn't adapted in the anime. |
| Not particularly, but I might like a character in spite of them being a loser. It's a normal response to assume that you're insulting someone if you call them a loser. |

| I wouldn't like a character if I thought they were a loser tbh. At worst I might find them to be a little bit of a dork, like Atsuko Kagari. She definitely isn't a loser though lol. |

| When I watched re: zero, I remember Subaru annoying me because of that. I don't hate him, he's just annoying. |

| Kazuya from rent a girlfriend. man is something.... |

NoblesseEssentia said: "Who's an anime character that you very much like but" I never heard anyone saying that they like something about him. You having yet heard of them doesn't equal to that it isn't the case, like Schrödinger's cat. I bet those people are good at HIDE-and-seek. |

| I don't like losers much. Maybe that main character from Tokyo Revengers because he tries his best not to be a loser anymore. |
| Kazuya from Rent a gf (Always hated this guy and he's also fu-cking loser) Amano yukki from Mirai Nikki (Liked this guy but damn he's such a loser) Yuuki Rito from To love ru ( Wanted to like this guy but...... He's loser) |

It's a normal response to assume that you're insulting someone if you call them a loser. if there are anime fans who can be out there cooing over yanderes, then i can have a couple of characters who i fondly regard as a loser and all. again, it's part of their charm. |

But god damn is he still a f*kin loser yeah, i'm not surprised to see shinji being brought up multiple times here and i would also agree. the boy has been through a lot despite being so young so i get why he is the way he is and yet he's also a loser. |

lol i would say a lot of gintama characters fit this bill. a lot of them are losers (affectionate). |

| Don't really like loser/wimpy etc.. MCs so I don't think anything comes to mind |

| Pecora from Jashin-chan Dropkick. One of the best comedic characters you literally want to feel sorry for. Also, Jahy from the manga of the same name. Her suffering literally turns the anime into a melodrama. |

lelouch4britanni said: Izumi from shikimori.. That dude is a fricken pussy looser who makes rent a gf mc seem like a chad alrighty. looks like what i meant with this topic flew over your head, but personally speaking, izumi would work. being a loser is part of what makes his character good and the show be able to be what it is. |

bucciaratiest said: Yandere's are cool though because they're fiction, no one would want anything to do with one in real life. Second, I don't recall telling you what you could or couldn't do, I said that it's a normal response to think a loser is negative rather than endearing.

| Surprise surprise, I'm baffled that at the time of this post, there has yet anyone picking Hachiman Hikigaya, despite all the claims 'He's literally me!' and 50k favourites. NoblesseEssentia said: Anyway, everyone saying Kazuya is making me believe that they like him but they know that he is a loser which isn't the general opinion I'm sure. Certainly. Maybe that explains why you felt it strange at first. |

| I'll just go with the standard Naruto who starts off as a loser and becomes the strongest ninja by the end of the series. |

lelouch4britanni said: Slice of life shows don't really need a concrete plot, the issue is that they cut up unrelated chapters and pasted them together to make a more cohesive narrative, which turned out awful. Now, all I can say is that Izumi is far better in the manga, but that's only if you are on board with the "role reversal" gimmick to begin with. I don't know if it's just the anime making him look dumber, the lack of context, or the fact he's annoying as hell when animated/voiced, but I couldn't stand him in the anime. The only way I found it remotely tolerable was to hear him in the dub, but the VA for Shikimori was barely passable, unfortunately. bucciaratiest said: currently watching the Shikimori-san show.... A lot could have been done with his character but the author had no plot whatsoever.. Just a bunch of filler episodes with a pussy ass mc..alrighty. looks like what i meant with this topic flew over your head, but personally speaking, izumi would work. being a loser is part of what makes his character good and the show be able to be what it is. And yeah I understood what you wrote.. But I'm just so pissed off I needed a platform to vent my frustration |
