As of now, Issei has more redeeming factors than this guy though.
I mean both of them have the "wouldn't hurt a fly" shtick down, but this guy (I keep forgetting his name) is much more shameless. Which is amusing. Which, as I said, is the reason I'll keep watching. |

I gave this one a try and saw the first 2 eps. The first one got me interested due to the nature of the MC. Then, episode two almost got me stop caring for this series. Maybe it’s not the overall story, but the execution of the 2nd episode is rather lame. That enemy girl is as generic as it can get (If you plan on double crossing someone, surely there’s a lot of better ways than to execute a single little-trap and reveal your evil intention openly to your target afterwards ). Yeah, I know that this is a comedy but still . My take on this is that this one will be a generic ecchi-romance-fantasy ala Zero no Tsukaima sequels and a less serious version of Shakugan no Shana.
I’ll give the 3rd episode a chance, and if that doesn’t pick my interest, I’ll drop this and stay with Yuusha Aesthetica instead.

I'm sorry, what's wrong with my use of "may"?

They both are stereotypical super good guys; They both have powers/abilities that revolve around being perverts; They both have supernatural hot red-haired girls as partners/bosses; They both have unnatural ability to attract and build a harem; Even they reactions to most things are similar. You'd have to be blind and deaf to not notice the similarities, but of course, not liking Issei could contribute to this... |

1 They both are ultimate over-the-top perverts; thats correct but can be said for most ecchi series 2 They both are stereotypical super good guys same as my remark from 1 3 They both have powers/abilities that revolve around being perverts; DxD only watching the anime not reading the LnHis powers comes from being a demon and using them in perverted ways This one his own pervertedness converts to power for Risara useage 4 They both have supernatural hot red-haired girls as partners/bosses; ok thats kind of like saying Ash try and I are alike cause we both have brunette girlfriends? in reality i do at least 5 They both have unnatural ability to attract and build a harem; same as 1-2 or any anime/ln/manga series =D if i had to compare him to anyone it would be taro from MM but still in reality male leads in ecchi series resolves around a few personalities so i still fail to see how they are alike Last edited by Kyouka; 2012-07-14 at 21:59. |

Look, all I'm saying is that when I look at this MC I'm reminded of Issei because of these reasons and his mannerisms...you obviously are not. I made a comparison between him and a character I find to be similar...so what? I fail to see what the whole issue here is. And...you'll bite? It's funny because this all started just because you insulted a character you don't like but other people may and I called you on it. |

your point of view shows your inexperience on watching anime =D
but in this case going in small details they are nothing alike lets compare 5 male Mc leads in small and big details for your list of 5 details Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai Kaga Highschool DxD Issei Infinite Stratos Ichika Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? Ayumu MM! Taro 1 They both are ultimate over-the-top perverts; Kaga,Issei,Ayumu and Taro fits this one watching the series can prove that point 2 They both are stereotypical super good guys All 5 will fit this one 3 They both have powers/abilities that revolve around being perverts; 4-5 fits this Kaga Pervertedness converts to power Issei uses his devil/demon powers to create pervy desires Ayumu is a cross dressing magical girl zombie killing machine enough said Taro turns into super MM the most awesome super power perv in anime Henti-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah remember that? 4 They both have supernatural hot red-haired girls as partners/bosses; Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai Kaga =Lisara Highschool DxD Issei =Rias Infinite Stratos Ichika=Ran Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? Ayumu = NeNe 5 They both have unnatural ability to attract and build a harem; Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai i dont see a harem formed right now but its in progress Highschool DxD his harem is mostly rias and Asia and maybe Ravel other then that everyone treats him as a tool/kid Infinite Stratos im not going to lie im still a little clueless on how this happened but good things happens to idiots best quote of the anime i remember ill go on a date with you houki replies really? back to Ichika shopping that is then he gets kicked Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? This Harem is indeed strong but hes building it himself unintentionally by acting like hiself MM! his Harem resolves around mainly jealously and helping him overcome his masochist and with that being said i guess u could relate all 5 of them into being the same in many ways but in reality the small details of all 5 are nothing alike want me to add more series and Male Mc's? |

I don't see how bringing up other main characters with commonalities refutes someone's personal impression that one character reminds them of another?
It's not like it's an objective assertion about which two characters are the most similar.

oh i forgot to post about this on all 5 male mc's picture 1 female this is how the Males would react
Kaga would be groping the breast Issei would be hiding in a bush peaking Ichika would be looking the other way and not noticing say female Ayumu would be standing there and the female would strip and nose bleeds will occur Taro would be below the say female getting stepped on |

Hey now... you are forgetting the most important differentiating factor here... which ones are pretentious and ignorant cowards... I say Issei@DxD, Ichika@IS qualify... on the other hand, Tarou@MM, Ayumu@KoreZon, and this one are very much self-aware and try not to inconvenience those in their surrounding, while honestly expressing themselves whenever possible.
Superficially, they might appear similar, but on a second read into their behavior and particularly their motivation is quite different... or at least that's the way I see them. |

Or did the Gods of Anime grace you with the only correct view point? Yes, most of things you've said about all 5 characters are correct, yet I wasn't reminded of them when I watched this series, I was reminded of Issei... To me they are similar, they all share similarities but to me, in my eyes, Kaga resembles Issei in his mannerism and actions. It's all about view points, I understand how you can't understand my linking of Kaga to Issei much like I can't understand how you cannot see it. So why are we even fighting over this? This wasn't even why the discussion started originally funny enough xD And AmeNoJaku...in what way is Issei an "ignorant Coward" |

Coward because he always repels the girls that are interested in him and ignorant because he fails to realize in the first place who are.
As I said in ecchi shows, there are characters that act self-aware of what they are doing, and kids who don't... whether each of us likes or dislikes one or the other, it's a matter of personal taste. |

I heard a lot about this series (the manga) and I guess I was expecting it to be something else. The ecchi is certainly enough for a series...unfortunately for me Lisara's archetype kinda counters the ecchi. Guess I'm the kind of guy that isn't satisfied with ecchi if it comes from a character with a personality that annoys me. This happens in every anime with a MC with her personality though... Quote:
But I don't know about the coward part...the way you explain it, it certainly fits Ichika but Issei, not so much. Last edited by Randrak42; 2012-07-14 at 23:35. |
