I made the comparison because, like it or not, they are pretty obvious.

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.

They both are ultimate over-the-top perverts;
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...

not trying to continue this but hey ill bite once in a while


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

Regardless, they are still 3 things that make them alike.

I was referring to Issei's "attack" that's basically the ability to completely strip girls naked.
One uses his powers in perverted ways and another uses his pervertedness as a source of energy...either way their powers/abilities (some) are based around their perverted nature.

Oh come on...really?

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.

So let me see if I get this straight...the fact that Kaga reminded me of Issei yet it didn't to you shows that I'm inexperienced with anime? How does that make any kind of sense? Are you saying that someone that doesn't share your point of view on something is inexperienced?
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.

It just didn't have the impact I was expecting. It was fun to pass the time but it didn't keep my attention. If a series manages to keep me watching an episode from start to finish without my attention waning then I find it a good series to follow. What happened with this series was that I started watching episode 2 and about half-way through I was checking my emails and the forum with the show becoming background noise for a bit.
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...

I agree with ignorant then...cause he is pretty ignorant of the fact that he has like 7 girls in love with him...
But I don't know about the coward part...the way you explain it, it certainly fits Ichika but Issei, not so much.
