    Based. It’s one of the things I like about anime is that they tend to put some effort into male protagonist designs.

    Even Fairy Tail, the quintessential horny teenage boy anime that’s borderline hentai still has plenty of male characters that don’t make you gag upon sight (Yes, I did have a crush on Gray as a teenager how did you know?)

      God, there's alot of things I hate about Fairy Tail. "Here's a strong female character. Oh, watch her get hit by magic that makes her a submissive bimbo."

      Also an absurd amount of tentacles/ropes/spider webs to restrain barely clothed women.

      I've never seen any anime but you can't convince me that you can successfully identify any of the parade of waifus I've been unwillingly exposed to because there's one character model and fifty thousand ways to color her shirt

        I’m by no means praising Fairy Tail (although come to think of it the tail part of the name is sus) but I’ll begrudgingly admit that at least they have one or two fanservicey men. Still bad, but it’s a start.
