Why is the hero in every anime/manga ever always a manlet? When are we tall heroes ever going to get our chance to shine?
>>
Guts is pretty tall, compared to everyone else.
>>
>>143665674
yeah but he's a manlet compared to everything he fights
>>
>>143666538
it wouldn't really be much of a fight otherwise right
>>
>>143666538
Because everything his height or lower he wouldn't even bother drawing his sword on nigger trying reading/ watching the fucking series.
>>
>>143666538
He's also 6'3

he's a big guy

just some that come off at first thought

Because lankets are the minority.
>>
>>143665502
Because Japanese people are short.

And? They doesn't look White neither.

The demographic is most likely the same that was around in europe during the dark ages.

So nips can self-insert

>taller guy beating up smaller guy

oh wow how shocking what a hero
>>
>>143667504
I was talking about Jap people. Anime characters are rarely meant to look like East-Asian people and when they do it generally just is black hair.
>>

But shonen MCs are usually manlets even compared to the other characters, also Japanese.
>>
>>143667596
The average battle shonen protag is significantly taller than the average nip.
>>
>>143667789
Because beating up tall and/or muscular ennemies seems like a bigger achievement than small and thin ones.

This. Can we all agree that shorter heroes are more respectable, and heroic than tall ones? It goes back to the ideology that size is compared to the animalistic nature, and beasts, and intelligence and perseverance is the core essence of mankind. It's representative of subduing the beast with ingenuity.

>>143666538
This thread is dumb.

>T. Manlet.

Stop being retarded, there are many tall heroes, most of them actually, especially in older manga.

Every male character in Hokuto no Ken, every Joestar, Guts, everyone in Otokojuku, the list goes on.

>>143668569
>Can we all agree that shorter heroes are more respectable

No. It's about what they fight, not about them being fucking manlets.
