Why is it that harem protagonists tend to be given the ugliest hairdos ever?
Whether it's this or Highschool DxD or To Love Ru or whatever, they always tend to have shitty hairdos.
And they just look ugly and bland in general. Where's the harem with the handsome, slick, muscular chad guy as the harem master?
Colton James
>t. long haired ponytail-wearing neckbeard It's just a generic hairstyle so that teenage Japanese charisma vacuums can self insert better.
Hudson Roberts
It's because literally all Japanese otaku are bland, ugly guys with shitty hair.
Daniel Campbell
>Chad
Ryder Harris
Subaru is not a harem protagonist though.
Did you even watch the show or just shitposting about something you've never seen?
Brody Davis
There's no harem in Re:Zero. But Subaru indeed has a dumb hair.
Dominic Jenkins
Because all Japanese guys have one of three haircuts. You'd think it was DPRK over there.
Asher Cook
He is the most annoying main character of any anime.
Joshua Cruz
She had every opportunity
Noah Morales
Huh, I think the guy you posted looks very cute so idk.
Logan Ross
Don't make fun of Subaru's hair, he cuts it himself, and he does the best job he can you fuck.
Landon Watson
He's the reason why I finally decided to say "Fuck it", and stop watching anime with male protags all together.
Also this, male protags are designed this way alot of the time so that the people watching, who the show runners assume are all losers, see someone who looks like them so that they can relate and self insert better.
It pisses me off desu, but hey, you gotta appeal to your base if you want to make money.
Blake Ross
Why is Subaru so ugly?
Cooper Phillips
>harem protagonist >has 2 love interests and one of them doesn't even love him
Camden Nguyen
I wonder if Rem will ever let Subaru cut her hair
Nathan Russell
He's be too busy sniffing it
Parker Young
>r it's this or Highschool DxD Issei's in particular just looks plain fucking weird. His hair looks like a fucking coconut with small twintails at the back.
Hudson Watson
His is good though, the real problem is the overuse of this shit hair, at least try making it blonde, or making him tan, or just try to make them good looking for once, jesus
Caleb Ward
>at least try making it blonde, or making him tan gyaru harem lead when?
Andrew Ward
Looks pretty good to me senpai
Benjamin Cox
>gyaru male
Noah Reyes
But making a male character good looking would be pretty gay, wouldn't it?
Nathan Baker
It's only gay when the balls touch, and you can't touch balls with 2D
Austin Allen
...
Lucas Evans
>R:Z fags this delusional about their shitty harem show
Adrian Brown
We have a lot of edgy/delinquent blonde haired leads already, like the haganai guy, dfrag guy, fujimura, onizuka etc.
Cooper Cooper
>tfw I like Subaru's hair. As a gril, he's qt. There's plenty worse as far as MCs go. And to answer OP's question, it's because the audience of harem's can't self insert into a chad.
Dylan Anderson
Just have fujos design the characters, guaranteed hotness for everyone shown
Jackson Gonzalez
Yes you can, 3d balls can be projected onto 2d space and you can generalize "touching" to n-dimensional space using the separating axis theorem
Charles Watson
That's retarded. Might as well say every virgin is asexual.
Cooper Smith
I don't even particularly like it sans the first opening, but it's really not harem. Main girl barely knows him or plainly dislikes him most of the time, and the only girl that loves him he does not love back. All other girls see him as the piece of shit he is.
It's not a wish fullfilment harem, its "you're pathetic and everyone sees that".
Bentley Perry
The mc from yuuragi yuuna has long hair with a ponytail tho, and he's pretty badass
Lincoln Adams
Probably so the uggos that watch the show can relate to MC.
Jacob Lewis
Rather than hairstyle it's the artstyle that can make a character look bad
Touma's pretty cool looking in the manga, and cute in the LNs, but dull in the anime
Jayden Sanchez
>the only girl that loves him he does not love back
Well, about that.
Nathaniel Anderson
Subaru is pretty popular with the fujos considering his shitty hairdo.
Benjamin Evans
Its not like it lasted long considering what happened to her. It still also adds to the fact he is pathetic or sees himself as since he failed at his only goal at the time.
William Diaz
His eyes and sheer patheticness are cute
Ryder Scott
There's just so much less you can do with short hair! It's no fair!
