Shitty cliches

>I'll protect my friends

You must be a bad friend

>Sup Forums user: This girl who is obviously in love with the MC isn't is in fact not in love with the MC

>I will sacrifice myself so you can escape!
>NOoooo!, we can't leave you here!
>Go on without me! I'll just be a drag!
>NOoooo!, we can't leave you here! (reprise)
>In the 15 minutes we spent arguing this, we could have all escaped, made coffee, and read the newspaper.
>But instead we stood around screaming like drama queens until the Bad Guys BTFO'd us and now we're all dead.

>You guys go ahead. Let me 1v1 this guy
>Not gangbang that bastard to increase the chance of winning

>If we kill him, well be just like them!

>I have trained my body and soul my whole life to reach the maximum level of performance my body can allow. I have endured countless trials and hardships to get where I am today. I will defeat you and prove that hard work pays out in the end!
>TOO BAD I HAVE TALENT AND THE SUPPORT OF MY FRIENDS, PROTAGONIST NEVER LOSES KID.

>MC trips and lands with girl's boob in his mouth, rubbing her special spot, her clothes are laid open bare, it wouldn't be surprised if his pants had fallen off in the fall and he nailed her.

>girl is always mean but deep down she loves him

>how can you be so strong?
>because I have someone I need to protect

No, that doesn't fucking explain how you got so fucking strong.

>female falls and MC happens to see her panties
>she hits him and calls him a pervert even though she knows its not his fault

maybe you should stop watching shitty anime

>series introduces powerlevels at least 200 chapters in

>MC learns nothing over series, or is somehow written to be even dumber later on

I haven't seen this since early 2000s. Then again I also stopped watching shit anime since early 2000s

>I have to protect everyone!

>i will use all my power, don't hold back
>don't hold back

>Male MC walks in on Female MC Changing
>She gets mad even though it's her fault for not locking the damn door
>Male MC undresses to make it all equal

>Rito
>Early 2000s
>being such a underaged faggot you don't recognize the God of TripGrope.

>bad guy is stronger but mc wins anyway because he stands up everytime lol
I even prefer asspull powers, since those don't stretch the length of the fight and make it so obvious.

I want my shitty anime to be good, dumbass.

>THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM
>next villain is 60 gorillion times stronger than the last one

>THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM
i actually like that one for shitposting purposes

>After waiting for like a half hour, finally prepares finishing move.
>All his time wasting has allowed some other protagonist character to interrupt
>He puts the interloper down in no time
>Seeing this suddenly turns MC into an unstoppable Spirit of War and Fury and Destruction.

>smashing people through walls when the average attack can destroy entire buildings
>smashing people through walls when they have the default body strength to not even feel it

fucking this

>"Why do you love the MC so much?"
>"Hmmm...."
>"he's just....a really nice person!"

>"Why do you love the MC so much?"

>He was... the first one to be kind to me.

BLEGH

>girl leans over inanimate objects
>caresses one of them
>"konokotachi"

Is this a thing in the japanese language? Or does she really call things "children"?

>character is beaten/tortured beyond human limits
>keeps getting up/going forward
>"I made someone a promise..."

>double points if it flashbacks to show them dropping "I promise" in the middle of conversation in the most nonchalant and unemphasised manner ever.

>it's a pinky promise

>"If my friends have suffered this much, I can't back down here and now!"
>[insert cliche scream noises as MC rushes towards bad guy]
>they stand back to back after the final blow, both unmoving
>bad guy coughs up blood
>"you fought well, shounen"
>bad guy falls dead, blood only just now spluts out from his body

>I won't kill anyone

Kono means you
Kodomo means child.
Did you mean kodomotachi?

>really op villian shows up
>on the verge of defeating mc and his allies
>"D-Don't worry guys we can defeat.... NO we will defeat him"
>"because we have what he doesn't have...."
>"the power of friendship"
> fucking wins in the end due to a secret hidden fusion or some shit

>MC ponders his reason for fighting
>MC asks someone else their reason for fighting

nanatsu no taizai

I don't really remember, it was long ago since I saw that one, I only remember girl-calling-things-children

>male MC walks into his own bathroom in his own house where he lives alone
>girl unexpectedly is there naked
>KYAAAA *slap* BAKA HENTAI

This always makes me mad. I love that Tsugumomo avoided this dumb cliche all together

>combo with MC responding with "but I'm at my own hoooooouse" for le epic tsukkomi moment

>you are described as an ugly neet
>you are the most good looking in class

Not that difficult if you visit a school for the 'damaged' because of crippling social anxiety, aspergers and mild OCD, where the rest of your class is downies.

>gang leader has never followed anyone in his life
>total monster, huge gang fears and respects him
>loses to MC
>follows MC, abandoning his gang and becoming a mockery of himself

>high school
>superpowers/supernatural shit

Pick one, for crying out loud.

>bad guy trashcans MC
>MC trains for like a week and unlocks some horseshit ability
>rematch
>bad guy suddenly loses all proficiency
>"NO. HOW CAN THIS BE. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
>"Oooooo Bullshit-kun is so sugoi!"

>I'll protect my friends
>Fails to protect anyone

There's nothing I like better than watching formerly smug villains lose their shit

>series starts out with message of "you can do anything if you work hard enough"
>MC being the chosen one with special abilities that allows only him to defeat bad guys who are also special completely destroys this message
>series ends with a core message of "be born special otherwise you're going to be a side character at best"

>bad guy trashcans MC
>MC has to train
>supporting character shoves MC up his ass
>IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE WHERE TIME RUNS SLOWER
>1 day outside is like 6 gorillion years inside here, let's train

>multiple female characters pine over MC
>none of them end up in a relationship with any other male character

>MC is the only male character that exists

>parents don't exist

>I will not kill you because I'm not like you
>turns around leaving opening through which the villain attempts final sneak attack
>of course mc expected that and kills him with ease

So. In this case, is he like the villain or is he not? Not sure if self-defense applies here since he did assault the guy in the first place. Smells like some cheap legal loophole to retain status or something.

Gotta follow the NAP (Non Aggression Principle).

All MCs are secretly ancaps.

Guy shows up all of a sudden, is good looking, extremely kind and liked, talented, wealthy, and arranged/promised to marry MC's love interest, but it's all just a scheme and he's actually a low tier pawn/bad guy in some dumb elaborate anime as fuck scheme.

>Guy shows up all of a sudden, is good looking, extremely kind and liked, talented, wealthy, and arranged/promised to marry MC's love interest, but it's all just a scheme and he's actually a low tier pawn/bad guy in some dumb elaborate anime as fuck scheme.

>Instead of just saying 'no' and sticking with it, decide to come up with an elaborate lie to get out of it instead.

Sisti is a fucking idiot. She doesn't deserve Glen Radars.

>opponent introduced
>the toughest shit ever
>everyone shits their pants on the mere thought about him
>after 6 millions of chapters MC defeats said opponent
>yes, yes, well done MC
>HOWEVER
>there's now a bunch of other guys that make previous enemy look like a baby
>after another 6 millions of chapters MC defeats those enemies
>yes, yes, well done MC
>HOWEVER

>introduce character not taking part in MC's harem
>it's a psychotic badguy
How are they getting away with it.

fuck off, you walking meme

This is more publisher pressure than a cliche

At least some works try to make sense with that, more or less.

>PUNCH HARDER KID. JUST PUNCH HARDER. YOU STILL GOT OXYGEN IN YOUR MUSCLES.

>Main character is forcefully dragged into a life he's not accustomed to.
>Shows signs of quick ruthless thinking and adaptation so the locals take him in.
>After that episode, he goes back to bitching about stuff constantly.
Fucking black lagoon

>asspulls

I think this is just case of japanese sociopathy and putting on airs around people.

>MC punches
>OUSOI!
>BB...BAKANA!/MASAKA!

>MC has special ability they can't seem to use
>in a life or death scenario
>I UNDERSTAND NOW, I CAN USE IT
>after the ordeal they go back to not being able to use it

To be fair, they were never her friends. Just actors

>MC doesn't drive plot at all, he only does what he's told to or just protects everyone in his vicinity
>no goals, no ambitions, no initiative, no schemes, no shaping events for his own agenda
>all opportunities to do something interesting, deals with the devil, invitations to plots automatically rejected
>literal anthropomorphization of inertia
>despite being surrounded by qt girls, he doesn't make moves on them, doesn't seem interested in them, we don't even know what he thinks about them or if he even thinks at all
>dense enough to actually attract boobs with just his own gravitational field
>whenever hit on by a girl he either runs away or bitches and moans
>his only defining trait is "being nice" which consists of behaving like a civilized human with basic manners and dropping five minutes long idealistic, pseudophilosophical speeches no one normal would take seriously
>tends to communicate by yelling
>single-handedly drags series with fun premise and 8/10 potential down into 2/10 area

One day I will snap, put on a spandex costume, complete with mask, cape and briefs over tights, and go on the hunt, assassinating authors who keep producing those fucking cardboard cutout beta males. Maybe that will teach those shits how to write a fucking MC.

>whenever hit on by a girl he either runs away or bitches and moans
Or a train or car goes by at the exact moment of confession.

>It's a 'verse where people ar high powered and special powers are present
>MC is a normal
>MC's thing is supposed to be his vast intellect
>It manifests not by clever plans but by sherlock reading his opponents and having perfect dodges

that tends to happen when stupid authors try to write """genius""" MCs or characters in general. hell, most authors can't even manage to write halfway intelligent characters.

>Sherlock moments in general when detective MC uses absurd moon logic clues to come to correct, but completely contrived answer
Mystery in general is a shit genre that relies solely on providing few clues and then choosing the most outlandish scenario possible one could formulate from those clues.

>conflict of the season would just solve itself if the characters would just sit down and tell each other everything they know

>he wouldn't protect his friends
I can see why you don't have any, OP.

>mc group walking
>one sidecharacter notices a moment in the bushes or glowing eyes or something supernatural
>"what is it character-kun? did you see something?"
>"no... it was nothing"

...

>So here's how the different type of ninjustu/nen/magic powers/stand/whathaveyou work.
>There are many type of users with many way to use it in contrived ways
>MC's type is just physical enhancement and/or raw energy blasts

>I don't like people who would protect their friends because I, a friendless Sup Forumsnon, don't know what it's like

Trudeau, is that you?

...Adrenaline?

>I have to protect everyone!
>proceeds to job their way through the plot
>somehow still won't fucking die

>antagonist is the MC's brother or half-brother

Even worse
>Setting where everyone has superpowers or magic
>MC's power is PUNCH HARDER or "since I can't use it no one else can!"

That always devalues relationships so much, I hate it. I mean having friends who are kind is good but for fuck's sake give more detail. Are they nice and reliable or nice but clumsy? What the fuck else do you even like about them? Especially when they're unlikable, mentally unstable cunts.

Yes I'm talking about Armin Arlert's "b-but he was nice to me" "friendship" with Eren Jaeger. Yeah, coconut head. He was nice to you. He also is canonically, as said by the author himself, unhealthily obsessed with you and uses you to keep himself sane, which is failing. He never even cared about your dreams, he's a fucking leech, Armin. A. LEECH. DROP HIS FUCKING BEARDED 20 YEAR OLD PSYCHO ASS IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY OVER THE TIME SKIP!

Did you mean
>Eren Jaeger
Only exception is what makes him interesting is how fucking stupid, dangerous, and psychotic he is. God I want him fucking dead.

>tfw that cliche has happened to me irl
feels bad, there goes 8 months of pointless tension with my only friends

Also why I couldn't stand "keikaku" villains: they cheat by reading ahead of the plot, until suddenly things fall apart because of something blindingly obvious, stupid, or even just some contrived coincidence.

>I can't go out with her
>I wouldn't appreciate her

>i'll protect my friends
>they proceed to get slaughtered by annie

>mc-kun I lo-
*TUUUUUUUUU
>eh? nandatte?
>uh... I said I love this sushi

>Why are you constantly blushing when I treat you kindly, get mad if I get close to another girl, keep waking me up in the morning and cooking all my meals while having a warm relationship with my mother ? I just don't get it.

>osananajimi lose

>mfw
Really ticks me off.
It's always pleasing when she actually repeats herself.

i never want to see this ever again

>*TUUUUUUUUU
?

I dont know man. It is kind of like a video game, at first you are weak but then you hit a point where you can level up faster than before and exponential growth happens. It is really to drag in the reader/watcher but it happens in life as well as anime/games. Look at the 16 year old kid that works at a department store for 4 years before going to college then using his work experience to suddenly land a 35$ an hour job.

Inuyasha style.

>I'll try not to die
>I'll eat food
>I'll be attracted to girls
Equally terrible cliches.

fucking this
