Funny that it reminds me of the TVTropes term "Magikarp Power". Basically, protagonists that start off weak have this power. They start off useless, but with enough time, training, and the power of friendship, they turn into GAR characters.
Really, I find wussy protagonists realistic, because their story symbolises a person's growth of character and skill. Demanding for strong badass protagonists strike me as Wish Fulfillment, unless most Western viewers are actually badass in real life to begin with.
