why are delinquents such a prominent part of anime culture?and why are they so fucking hilarious?

They were extremely popular for a time. Unfortunately, things have changed.

Great variety and straight male bonding. It's basically the male version of cute girls doing cute things. Badass guys doing badass things
New Bakuon Rettou chapter was posted a couple days ago. I just caught up recently and am still in shock over what happened. Though I must say,going the delivery truck route was a bit contrived.

Because they are the realest of niggas in Japan
Because they're the only non betas in Japan.

by from what I can tell they're played for laughs in pretty much every anime I've seen them in.

Because the only time you can still act like a fool is during middleschool.

They either the comic relief, the stereotypical bad guy or the delinquent with a heart of gold. It's gotten stale, really.
>>138429724
That's because most authors add a single delinquent caricature to fill out the cast. It's very different when the entire cast is a delinquent.

The Japanese love James Dean.

He looked straight up like a Takehiko Inoue character.

It's more like adding the Fonz in places he doesn't belong.
>>138429724
It's because of what >>138428385 said. It basically goes: Delinquent characters played straight -> become more popular -> become a cliche -> parody of cliche -> parody becomes cliche -> no longer popular
>>138429991
Every school has delinquent
>>138430612
What do they even do, aside from occasionally skipping classes, wearing clothes purposely wrong and having silly haircuts?
>>138430798
that´s a big deal in japan since everyone wears those gay ass uniforms.
>>138426528
Every culture has their delinquents, and every culture has the deliquent-with-a-heart-of-gold cliché.
Japan is just much better at it.
To this day Angel Densetsu is one of my all-time favorite manga.
