The Executioner and Her Way of Life
| I think it's purely a matter of taste. Someone cannot enjoy the story without a role-playing hero, someone, on the contrary, perceives the show as a kind of fan service garden. The main thing is that the show meets the expectations of its target audience, the rest depends on tastes or desires. |
 |
| It's subjective, but I also preferer if there is at least some gender diversity in the cast. As it is, it will turn into nothing more than yuri bait. |

It's a yuri anime btw, Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

it's already the best of the season for me I've read the novel and I liked it a lot, the fact that there's no gender variation (men) in the cast makes the work even better, getting out of the cliché scenario of isekais is very good. the baityuri is also very nice đź’• |
| This is more of a shitty take than hot take, ngl. Maybe learn to enjoy anime not by finding relatable character, but just as a "normal viewer". Could you even understand weeb girl's feeling in this guy targeted media? Don't think you could, if you can't even understand a character's feeling. |

If you ask me every anime should have female MC because I can relate them better than male MC. Personally I can't understand why we have to have discussion like this here? Surely there are plentiful anime to watch with male MCs. Fact is that about 75% isekais has male MCs and frankly we need a lot more isekais with female MCs. You don't have to watch this if you don't like it. Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. |

I mean we already have like what 4 series this season of that kind. Yes sure is it but why doesn't that be allowed to apply to women too? I mean there should be heaps of isekai stories with female MCs but instead we got like 75% MCs male. Funny thing is if you want to know how popular female oriented isekais are you only need to check anime-planet's manga isekai database (search tag). You can see there are tons of villainess/otome game manga and manhwa. On the first page of search alone almost half are villainess stories!! Demand is there but anime industry is not yet picket this up. Luckily for us Crunchyroll has finally noticed it: Crunchyroll: Shojo Anime Genre Has Strong Growth Potential https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2022-03-31/crunchyroll-shojo-anime-genre-has-strong-growth-potential/.184215 Crunchyroll held a business seminar on Tuesday aimed at Japanese businesses. Part of the presentation centered on explaining current consumer trends in the west based on the service's viewership numbers. Chief Customer Officer Asa Suehira explained that while shonen battle anime and "isekai" fantasy series continue to dominate, anime aimed at a female audience have strong growth potential. He stated that these titles tend to over-perform due to unmet demand from low supply, citing Fruits Basket as an example. "In the west, where female anime fans were underserved with relevant content historically, shojo, josei, and even some BL titles are showing stronger performances than expected," he said. Fans of idol anime shouldn't get their hopes up, however, as female-targeted idol anime were singled out as the exception to this trend. Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. |

| Hot take: if you only want male lead characters you are a homo that enjoys watching men. |

is probably the best of the anime, non-hentai yuri is just as fucking boring as Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

Fans of idol anime shouldn't get their hopes up, however, as female-targeted idol anime were singled out as the exception to this trend. An interesting thing to note, however, is that according to Jump's polls they have roughly 50/50 male/female readership, and according to their polls the manga with the highest female to male readership (i.e. more female readers than male) are all either fully male cast or focused on a male mc. This would imply to me that currently you could argue that shows featuring an all female cast or female focus are indeed inferior for some reason, it isn't just an issue of target audience. It's odd, given polls also seem to indicate the majority of mangaka are in fact woman. Personally I feel like this has something to do with the tropes imposed upon female characters, as many of the shows I've seen that featured female leads tended to noticeably and often dramatically diminish the maturity/seriousness of their writing, and/or blatantly cater to fetishes rather than a believable character design. The few shows that didn't do this often still had a habit of falling back on stereotypes, like the frail small woman needing male protection plot point, instead of pursuing something new and interesting. There's really only a handful of decent shows that avoid those things imo. Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. |

I'm the opposite, I basically never do that, not even when watching porn. so no i disagree, if anything a female lead is a nice change of pace. |

| It's quite the opposite for me. Female leads then to make me more interested in the show. Though, I'm someone who always chooses the female options in RPGs and such, so that's probably expected. |
| Hot Take: This yuri anime is blatantly sexist against males. |

You can't self-insert like you usually did it with usual isekai animes 2. You Faking hate YURI genre Go away assh**e There are bunch of isekai anime out there with Stock-LN-heroes. You don't need to make thread just to shame yourself. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StockLightNovelHero |

| Honestly this one of most unique take to isekai trop I seen in anime so far, as a male I dont have a problem with it. |
