There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right.
To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage." ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

I like those kind of protagonists, too. I actually enjoy both types of protagonists. But there are usually more options to what can happen in the story when the protagonist is very strong. For example, I love how strategic the main characters in No Game No Life or Overlord handle everything.
I don't mind watching a growing protagonist, but you can usually tell how the story is going to be with those. There are exceptions of course, but most of the time, the protagonist fails at first and then beats his enemy toward the end of the show. So yeah, that's why I enjoy a strong protagonist a bit more. The story can always take an interesting turn then :)
Most series that start with a strong main character usually are sold as 'deconstruction of a genre'; For example, One Punch Man. It is cool and all, but it is so shallow that I don't get all the hype, honestly.
On other hand, I love Hunter x Hunter: Gon grows up so much, and along with Kilua and Kurapika, makes a very interesting series. Leorio is the exception.
So, keeping short, I prefer weak protagonist who gets stronger.
But thanks you for advising me =)
- The supporting cast is good but not enough developed unfortunately (the story is really focused on Akane and Azumi)
- Their love story is too much idyllic (They did not once shouted at each other or shown some opposition)
After I rate often on the moment but in hindsight generally I see my rating up or down.
But it was really a good show especially with references to Osamu Dazai =)
What a beautiful story even I'm still a bit sad for Chinatsu.
I am happy if I could help you in any way.
Though I usually don't mind how the MC looks. I think the character's look should fit his role. For example: Charismatic and good looking for Yagami Light, big old guy with cold and dark look for those police inspector characters or even the crazy look for Caster in Fate Zero. I am happy as long as the character's personality is also reflected in his looks a little bit.
I hope that was understandable :)
