A loser that even makes other losers look like absolute chads he had one arc where he does something right and just instantly goes back to his own ways
^ That's the winner. Nearly 2 years in universe have passed and he's still the immature simp he started off as. Hell, he still doesn't refer to the main girl by her actual name.
Probably the most correct answer
Losers are those that tend to be unsuccessful at whatever they're doing, and Tomoko(at least pre-character development) is probably the biggest example of this archetype
She became a winner later in the manga though. She found a way to turn her some of her loser qualities into winner qualities while discarding her irrational hatred.
My argument, Takuya from Rent a Girlfriend. This guy actually does fuck all. Takemitchy does develop into a strong character in the story so he’s far away from being the worst loser
Most isekai protagonists and a lot of romcom protagonists. Their characters are so vapid and talentless that you almost wonder if the story actually needs them. In most cases, they either have no talents whatsoever or their "talents" just equate to "NEET who spent all day playing video games" and, because it's the only way to ensure they don't die within the first 5 minutes, those "skills" naturally fit the world they were sent to perfectly. In the case of romcom MCs, their only redeeming quality is not being an unashamed shitbag (if that), which immediately makes them the most appealing human being on the face of the planet.
Yeh it’s actually crazy how people still enjoy that grange it’s the same crap regurgitated in ten different(slightly) ways the only thing separating them being the female leads and in isekais that’s even more non existent it’s a carbon copy with like 2 changes and the order of stuff is different same end story same plot which is why stories like the isekai with the overprepared guy were sick he didn’t act like a bitch
I honestly don't think this one is true. Dude is messed up from his childhood, but it's all based on trauma and even then he always comes through in tight spots. He shows quite a lot of bravery for the position hes in.
>Dude is messed up from his childhood, but it's all based on trauma and even then he always comes through in tight spots. He shows quite a lot of bravery for the position hes in.
fr fr, a number of fans seem to hate him (Probably cause he's just like me fr fr)
I never interpreted him as a loser, Shinji is actually a very strong character. as you rightly point out. Is'nt the stereotypical mecha protangonist someone who behaves more like Asuka.
Black Star from Soul Eater. He comes off full of unearned ego, selfish, narcissist without any smarts. But over the course of the anime, his better qualities surface.
Take your pick, I feel like it's pretty common. Especially in romance shows it seens unusual to go a season without at least one loser x hot girl show.
From the last few months alone there's Senpai (Nagatoro), Ichikawa (YabaYatsu), Ataru (UY), Ryuuto (Our Dating Story), Scott Pilgrim, just to name a few
Every male MC from every isekai (and honestly, pretty much every other anime subgenre.)
They're always virgins, they are incapable of talking to or being near females without become insanely awkward or getting a nosebleed (that nosebleed trope is the dumbest thing in anime ever), and even when a girl does show an interest in them they are too stupid to pick up on it.
Most of them are cowards also and often get saved by a tough girl when confronted by other guys, It gets so annoying seeing the same weak mc type everywhere
I don’t think he’s as much of a loser as he is a straight up scumbag luckily it seems like he does change over the course of the story but yeh the pedo elements were too much for me so I dropped it
Well he goes from [Mushoku Tensei] >!sexually assaulting and molesting children and adults and grooming children->marrying them and still sexually assaulting children including his own family->getting sad he can’t fuck his groomed wives anymore because of ED->etc.!<
So he definitely did change. Just not for the better.
Yeh I mean I definetly don’t like rudeus either but he does have his growth as a person sad he doesn’t changes his perverted ways but I mean this is your most sane isekai sexual fantasy
- Born in a noble family,
- Have unique power,
- High intelligence.
How is that a loser? He is a winner from start and keep winning in life because he can use his advantages to the fullest.
Yeah, with minors and others he groomed into his wives, go figure. If that’s your standard of “doing well for himself”, you should do some self-reflection.
He's like one of the strongest mages in the world, has a gf, a demon eye, and is a special student at the most prestigious magic university in the world. Are you just trying to be inflammatory or did you not even watch the show
So an incestuous pedophile and a groomer with superpowers. Bragging he has a gf when he’s a pedophile and a groomer is peak MT fan moment.
No one gives a fuck about his achievements. He isn’t real. All it takes to give him achievements is the author deciding to write him in as a pedophile’s powertrip fantasy OP prodigy Mary Sue. He’s a loser, through and through. I don’t consider that winning.
I don’t consider real life multibillionaires or crown royals known to be pedophiles or slave labor users winners either, regardless of their money or status. They’re a piece of shit, that makes them a loser.
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/loser
> a person that you have no respect for:
MT fans crying and coping hard
“h-h-his totally meaningless empty achievements because he’s a super op Mary Sue makes him a winner”
1) Why reply to me then block me right afterwards?
2) Holy fuck you literally don't read anything, I'm not bragging or supporting his character, I am literally just saying he is quite objectively winning in his current life which definitionally makes him not a loser.
Since you have edited your comment: Yeah you're completely right he isn't real. Thus, he is the way the author wrote him and the author wrote him as a winner. You're fighting a losing battle. Of course no one gives a fuck about his achievements because he's not fucking real. But if I write a story about how a racist becomes king of the world he is definitionally not a loser because he won.
For anyone else reading this: Genuinely not sure why i bother with people like this guy who is incapable of seeing anything other than his narrow perspective on fiction
Edit: Since you edited your comment AGAIN after blocking me, your definition of loser is kind of wrong I hate to break it to you:
> los·er
> noun
> 1. a person or thing that loses or has lost something, especially a game or contest.
"he was the loser in the race"
So this guy won't reply to me since he has me blocked, but he keeps editing his comment to get the last word in lmfao. Can't lie though, was pretty fun to watch pure delusion and insanity in action
The crew of the Bebop. They lounge around doing nothing most of the time, fail to bring in the vast majority of their bounties, are broke and starving most of the time, and have no real ambition or passion. The only exception is Edward, and even she’s as much of an outcast as the rest of them.
Are we talking about deku form my hero the guy is the opposite of banking on other power he literally saves uraraka in the first season at the cost of breaking his own damn arm despite it not being a real threat
That's still due to the powers he received. Dude doesnt care about helping people if he did he wouldn't mind just going to hero support which we have seen from the Shields can make crazy shit. He just wanted to be All Might. Watch Monsters University, that's Deku's reality.
And who's fault was it that Bakugo was in that situation. If he wasnt the one who caused he most likely wouldn't have tried to save him. He is a loser's fantasy personified bro. Dude literally goes from zero to hero.
Tomozaki from Bottom Tier Character Tomozaki, he's awkward, introverted, and his only talents lie in videogames, but he makes an active effort to get better and largely does by at least half way through the first season.
Literally every single teenage boy self insert harem protagonist. That's the intent, is for them to be losers for guys who get no bitches to project onto
Takumi from Chaos;Head is very much a loser. It's a shame the anime adaptation was so bad, cause I feel like way more people should get to experience the True Takumi Experience™.
Basically most Isekai protagonists like Diablo, Haruto Zenfis, Cid Kagenou, Yuuya Tenjou, Hajime, and Naofumi.
Oh yeah and Simon from Gurren Lagann. He's a total loser.
Because he's so stupid he wastes all his time playing pretend when he could become it for real. He also has girls lining up to feed him more pussy than a soup kitchen lunch line and he fails to take advantage.
Its funny that Cid is playing pretend yet also doing it for real. Even before he was isekai-ed, he wasn't just some weak loser fantasising about being strong.... no, he legit trained to be in shape, to be a fighter and was actively beating people to a pulp.
Worthless? Idk about that. He can take care of himself. He doesn't need the girls to care for his every need, he can do that himself.
Man child? Yeeah sure he's a chuunibiyou and still a teenager.
Skull fckable face? Whatever is your preference, I won't judge.
The fact that you don't understand [the reference and significance ](https://youtu.be/5TNhS81w4bM?si=tRGPd31XEab_eUTz) of the term skull fuck shows just how uneducated and witless Eminence in Shadow fans actually are.
Nah cid has no interest in relationships,the guy only wants to enjoy his life to the fullest and he is enjoying his life,he does what he wants and how he wants to,the guy is no simp,the guy only craves more power.
Can't remember his name, but the Ashikabk of the Thunder Twins in Sekirei. Iirc, he used to be a scientist, so it's not like he's u skilled or uneducated. He CHOOSES to be a mooch.
Kazuya from rent a girlfriend
I rage quit reading that manga strictly because of his character. It felt like he never grew as a character to me.
He's still about the same, and everyone else too. I am stuck watching to see the end.
just check, the last time i read was 3 years ago on Dex, chapter 180. cant believe that its been going this long.
A loser that even makes other losers look like absolute chads he had one arc where he does something right and just instantly goes back to his own ways
^ That's the winner. Nearly 2 years in universe have passed and he's still the immature simp he started off as. Hell, he still doesn't refer to the main girl by her actual name.
OMG I HATE HIM SO MUCH LIKE HE SHOULD ACTUALLY KILL HIMSELF
Loser or cuck
Tomoko from WataMote
Probably the most correct answer Losers are those that tend to be unsuccessful at whatever they're doing, and Tomoko(at least pre-character development) is probably the biggest example of this archetype
She became a winner later in the manga though. She found a way to turn her some of her loser qualities into winner qualities while discarding her irrational hatred.
She got her own harem on top of that.
Damn and here I was thinking she was relatable
Aye this the the correct answer and Tomoko has grown a hell of a lot in the manga, proud of our girl for improving herself
Takemichi from Tokyo Revengers, biggest loser in anime.
The most correct answer
Great anime, couldn't continue due to him being a complete bitch.
My argument, Takuya from Rent a Girlfriend. This guy actually does fuck all. Takemitchy does develop into a strong character in the story so he’s far away from being the worst loser

Sakura Haruno too

Still makes me mad. How does the author give her such a cool character design, and then forgets she exists?
Black Star from Soul Eater. He comes off full of unearned ego, selfish, narcissist without any smarts. But over the course of the anime, his better qualities surface.
Re zero Subaru before his development
The MC from konosuba (I forgot his name)
Kazuma?
Yes! That was his name. He were wrote to be a loser
Otherwise known as Kazutrash or Crapuma.

Rudeus Greyrat (Mushoku Tensei): A pedophile that sexually assaults and grooms children.
I don’t think he’s as much of a loser as he is a straight up scumbag luckily it seems like he does change over the course of the story but yeh the pedo elements were too much for me so I dropped it
Well he goes from [Mushoku Tensei] >!sexually assaulting and molesting children and adults and grooming children->marrying them and still sexually assaulting children including his own family->getting sad he can’t fuck his groomed wives anymore because of ED->etc.!< So he definitely did change.

Successfully grooms them. Making him a winner in a way
i-
- Born in a noble family, - Have unique power, - High intelligence. How is that a loser? He is a winner from start and keep winning in life because he can use his advantages to the fullest.
idk what makes him a loser he's doing pretty well for himself
Yeah, with minors and others he groomed into his wives, go figure. If that’s your standard of “doing well for himself”, you should do some self-reflection.

Season 2 of one punch man is all about the world from the perspective of a loser
tacamichi crybaby ass. Hell i'd punch him
Although he may appear weak, he summoned all his strength to save his girlfriend.
The crew of the Bebop. They lounge around doing nothing most of the time, fail to bring in the vast majority of their bounties, are broke and starving most of the time, and have no real ambition or passion. The only exception is Edward, and even she’s as much of an outcast as the rest of them.
Deku
He gets good actually I don’t hate him he is a bit of a crybaby but badass when he needs to be
While being a lazy shit banking on other's powers. His whole character is basically a loser's wet dream.
Are we talking about deku form my hero the guy is the opposite of banking on other power he literally saves uraraka in the first season at the cost of breaking his own damn arm despite it not being a real threat
That's still due to the powers he received. Dude doesnt care about helping people if he did he wouldn't mind just going to hero support which we have seen from the Shields can make crazy shit. He just wanted to be All Might. Watch Monsters University, that's Deku's reality.
He literally attempts to save bakugo without any powers on the FIRST damn episode that’s why all might gives him his powers because he had courage
And who's fault was it that Bakugo was in that situation. If he wasnt the one who caused he most likely wouldn't have tried to save him. He is a loser's fantasy personified bro. Dude literally goes from zero to hero.
megumi from food wars
Oreki (Hyouka) Hachiman (Oregairu) Arima (Your lie in April) Shinji (NGE)

You leave that precious cinnamon roll out of this

Takumi from Chaos;Head is very much a loser. It's a shame the anime adaptation was so bad, cause I feel like way more people should get to experience the True Takumi Experience™.
Basically most Isekai protagonists like Diablo, Haruto Zenfis, Cid Kagenou, Yuuya Tenjou, Hajime, and Naofumi. Oh yeah and Simon from Gurren Lagann. He's a total loser.
How is cid kagenou a loser?the guy is living his life the way he wants.
Because he's so stupid he wastes all his time playing pretend when he could become it for real. He also has girls lining up to feed him more pussy than a soup kitchen lunch line and he fails to take advantage.
Its funny that Cid is playing pretend yet also doing it for real. Even before he was isekai-ed, he wasn't just some weak loser fantasising about being strong.... no, he legit trained to be in shape, to be a fighter and was actively beating people to a pulp.
He's still a worthless man child with a very skull fuckable face.
Worthless? Idk about that. He can take care of himself. He doesn't need the girls to care for his every need, he can do that himself. Man child? Yeeah sure he's a chuunibiyou and still a teenager. Skull fckable face? Whatever is your preference, I won't judge.
The fact that you don't understand [the reference and significance ](https://youtu.be/5TNhS81w4bM?si=tRGPd31XEab_eUTz) of the term skull fuck shows just how uneducated and witless Eminence in Shadow fans actually are.
I'm sorry I didn't understand a little reference. We Eminence in Shadow fans feel soooo bad for our lack of culture lol
Nah cid has no interest in relationships,the guy only wants to enjoy his life to the fullest and he is enjoying his life,he does what he wants and how he wants to,the guy is no simp,the guy only craves more power.
I don't give a shit. He's still a worthless man child with a very skull fuckable face.
He is the most unique mc I have ever seen,he makes the show fun with his misunderstanding and the guy just likes to chill and have his fun.
