We should get all of the male protags in harem/romcom shows and compare their stupidity.

They're largely so vapid and bull that very little separates them. I mean, the vast majority of them are nearly the same character.

You really cannot fathom how much of a dumbfuck Ichika is. You have to experience it to really know. Not that I recommend that you do that without heavy support from others suffering with you. Of course, I went and bought the blurays because I secretly hate myself.
Ok not really XD

Anyway, this is her character song again, because its never too often to post.

How the hell did she pass herself off as a dude for one second? That guy must have the mental capacity of a mole to not notice it from the start.

Nice song though.
 
Can moe? Does this mean we post salmon chan again?

I did not. Why would I make myself miserable.
Because you're a masochist?

Surprisingly solid. The finale to that last sketch was great, even if it was just a traditional idea executed extremely well. I'll have to thank Dresden for writing impressions about this series long after it had aired.

That wouldn't work. They're the same character. They're all equally stupid and ballsless and all that.

If it counts, I thought Ken from Seitokai no Ichizon was pretty good, and quite different from the norm. I actually liked him more than the rest of the cast.

But yeah, they are pretty much always annoying

From my understanding,
both girls were fascinated by being young, so when the poor girl found the rich girl had a pimple, she pushed her. And the rich girl was ok with it.

I'm not bothered by it because it's too obtuse or something like that. It's just that it's some weird shit.

The "you are me" or whatever stuff is bullshit, though, haha.

Yeah, it's pretty odd.

Normally, it's the kind of thing I'd pay no attention to; a host of flowery language with no significance, like Ritsuko describing things in a battle during Evangelion. I'd focus more on what it represents. Kanako loves poetry and literature of all kinds, and from them she invents the ideas and imagery she needs to find an escape from her normal life. In Yoriko she's invented a chance at an ideal eternal youth where she'll never grow old and sick. And as Yoriko's home life becomes more alien and confusing, her fascination with Kanako's beauty and brilliance grows deeper.

But given the kind of show it is, I suspect the "you are me" stuff will come back around to haunt us in a more particular way.

The problem with that is that they all have their own brand of stupid that they excel in.

Ichika - Infinite Stratos - A girl could out and out confess their love to him to his face, but his hearing failed him at that exact moment and answer's with "What!?"

Makoto - School Days - Boned everything in sight, didn't make things clear on who he wanted to break up with, was left confused as to why people stayed away from him.

Rito - To Love Ru - The master at falling into women's crotches from impossible positions.

Then you've got those leads where it's practically weak shounen main character who steps up to defeat the villain in the last episode, which are all virtually copy and paste jobs of each other.

Tomoki - a perverted but nice guy who knows exactly what he likes, is not shy about it and like to run around naked singing about his tingling nipples.

Wrong. We will make it. If we somehow pull out of the reverse polarity phenomenon using the anti-negative lewd equation and somehow incorporate the user-decency variables, it'll all work out and we'll get back on track to OT4.

Passive comments at my wife's lewdness! oh SNAP

I'm not mad. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhEAAQA...wEMPlz8AaBEagAjDrBQAkcUj5iCtQwK0FSzhciBsQADs=

I mean, if someone NTR'd me, and he was handsome enough... I wouldn't really be opposed.
If there is anything I take pride in it's being subtle sir!

Watch Senran Kagura representative of the holdouts.
