What great diversity...
They should put a limit of 2 characters per serie in those kind of lists
This feels more like an article about a trendy Host club :P
Why do most of these characters look the EXACT fucking same.
That's just how Westeners see Asians and the other way round. To me white people all look the fucking same.
Brad Pitt looks like Rush Limbaugh to you?
Is that a sane question? Of course they look a like.
No, that's not the reason. The reason is because they look the fucking same. Clothing and accessories may be different, but there's not a whole lot of variation in the different styles of drawing, which leads to characters looking the same. Why do you think they use so originally used so many unnatural colors for hair and eyes? It's so you can tell them apart when they aren't speaking.
Change the hair and eye color on almost every picture in this article to be the same, and they end up all the same character.
Some of them are almost generically lookalikes.
all junk.
Wait...star is a verb?
Mikorin's there... I did expect that.
Actually, in the Ligth Novel of Toaru series, Accelerator takes a way more important role as the story expands itself in the third/fourth seasons...
ALL of those characters are side characters for a reason... They only work in small dosages.
Would've been awesome if Mamoru Hijikata or Teppei Genda was in the list. Shame Until Death Do Us Part manga hasn't had an anime adaptation
Izaya Orihara (Durarara!!) is by far the most interesting choice as a main character imo. I mean he's unpredictable, fun and manipulative.
OK so Hijikata and Okita are awesome but Gintama is a gag anime and they have plenty of screen time, just having one of them without the rest of the cast doesn't sound like a good idea.
Shit list
most of the gintama guys already got their backstory explained (in the manga, at least) at this point. giving them their own series is kinda moot.
Bebop Kamui-kun must have his own damn series.
I don't recognize any of these.. save for Levi.
entry level anime noob.
you're a weaboo then
how can't you recognize gintama chars? ... go watch it now!
izaya definitely needs to be higher
I would have put Izaya higher than Shizuo but whatever and #1 should have been Sougo Okita
M-fangirls
If he counts as a "guy", I'd think I'd like BAKA AND TEST: SUMMON THE BEASTS better if Hideyoshi Kinoshita was the main character.
mutsurini makes a more interesting protag for a series
15. Accelerator (A Certain Series)
He HAS his own series now. he shouldn;t be on this list.
Well, he is the deuteragonist in the main series. That is enough, in my opinion.
When did this happen?! I am now hating myself for not keeping better track of all the fandoms I have...
LN and Manga... hasn't been animated yet, but it'll probably be done seeing how the Anime keeps going.
Kyouya Hibari - Katekyo Hitman Reborn
In that case:
Vongola Primo - Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Ayyyy, such pleb taste in the voting and here.
What is a Partgas D. Ace
Fartgas
Misaka Mikoto
Why the fuck does everyone like Levi so much? speaking as a woman I don't understand why he's such a heartthrob with female fans, dude looks like a constipated corpse.
Google LevixEren, you'll understand why fujoshi like Levi so much.
It's not the women voting for him, it's the dudes. Ask a man who has a man crush on Christian Bale and they'll be able to explain it to you.
That whole show is crap, no idea why it's so popular.
It's has a zombie apocalyse theme with the zombies replaced with titans.
People love their apocalyse... for some reason...
Get you prepared for the inevitable and hopefully not gonna happen in our lifetime. This shit is educational.... I mean all zombie films....especially Shaun of the dead. When you are doomed in a world full of zombies? You go to a bar and get drunk.
A huge number of people would beg to differ.
implying that quantity is better than quality. A huge number of people also think Justin Beiber is great. You see how dumb your logic is?
therefore it must be crap if majority likes it. wait what?
