| No, i think there should be more female characters than male characters. |
| I think it's a matter of the characters being on an equal level. Single gender casts theoretically remove the power dynamic between men and women and thus tend to make for more honest interactions. This would not be the case if mixed gender shows were written by people who accepted male-female interactions as normal and not some weird alien dynamic, but too often, they are biased by their gender politics. Not thay this doesn't happen in single gendered anime either. Madoka is an all female main cast, but the writer through the male Kyubey can't resist saying every historical woman got her accomplishments from aliens. |
| I do not believe fiction should have forced token characters at all. Not every series needs every race or an equal amount of men and women. That should be up to the creator with no outside pressure. |

@MelodyOfMemory honestly this is why I enjoy Fairytail because the main Cast of charcters feel like natural friends and their is basically no romance between the main charcters
| @Lol1268 I dunno what Fairy Tail you have seen, but in the one I have seen, there are multiple couples within the guild. |
| Kingdomcome Deliverance II GOTY 2025 Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is another worthy GOTY contender I tip my fedora to Sandfall Interactive, excellent debut gentlemen! If digital buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't stealing |
| Nah, but I'd like to see more female main characters in battle shonen anime. |
 |
| No, that's just stupid, stories are not and should not be bounded by that. |
| This ratio of female vs male characters is obviously completely irrelevant. |
Lol1268 said: when the main cast has an equal ratio with males and females and I notice the writingsfor charcters tends to be better. Care to elaborate? And what are some examples? I've never once thought about the "gender ratio" of the cast, or that "this anime would be so much better if there are more girls/guys in it." Maybe I just haven't seen enough anime? I believe the quality of writing has nothing to do with the gender of the characters... either they're well-written or they're not. |
| No, there should be at least twice as many females. |
| No. Who cares about ratio? Just make a good story. |
| Absolutely not. In fact, sometimes I don’t want any males at all. Ikkitousen should have been female only. |
Lol1268 said: I never really get the hype for Singualr Gendered Anime where the main cast is predominantly Female And predominantly male. I really Enjoy when the main cast has an equal ratio with males and females and I notice the writingsfor charcters tends to be better. To answer your question in the title... NO! You're free to have a preference of mix cast, male cast, female cast, but your personal preferences do not dictate how the OG creators tell their stories and write their characters |

| I don't know.. what are Femlae characters?? |
| I think anime should have interesting mains, their sex doesn't matter |
    |
| No, it doesn't make a difference in the story or character quality. If the author isn't great at writing characters and their relations, an equal ratio of genders wouldn't help. |
