sounds like a regular midwit to me

ayanokouji is non of those

Being the protagonist of a show you dislike.

Absence of a hobby?
The thing about teenagers is that they have paper-thin personalities. You don't have a job, you don't have kids, you can't go anywhere. All you can do is throw yourself into activities.
I think of a literally me character as someone who says, "I'm above those mindless drones who obsess over sports or fashion or music". But without those things they're just bored all the time.

Don't put God Kiyotaka on the same level as those please

Ayano is robotic sociopath. He’s nothing like the others.

Two of those are positive characters despite their flaws. Ayanokoji is a pure sociopath however.

That depends on the viewer.
In my case it'd be a tsukkomi character like Tadakuni from Daily lives of high school boys.
And I guess that'd be the case for 99% of the people.

Who is the one on the top?

intelligent,
nihilistic,
and with a wicked sense of humor.
so literally me, basically.

I don't really have a character that's "literally me".
Closest is probably Neptune.

This. It's like I can imagine myself in the anime.

The straight man is everywhere. A wisecracker is a straight man but more "witty" than usual

Sakuta

the only literally me characters are those mute protagonists in first person games

I only know Hikigaya. I don't find him relatable at all and I don't know anyone who's like him. And I'm not saying it because I didn't like the series. He's smart but if I had to choose a relatable smart straight man I'd pick Akane from Psycho Pass or Shimura Shinpachi from Gintama.

Screaming and friendship-powered Shonen protagonists are literally me nowadays, Shirou Ichigo, Simon they're literally me.
A few years ago though "literally me" characters were what other anons described. Edgy and *too cool for this* characters.
I went from Archer to Shirou kek. Though I sometimes feel like Shinji

Why is Zig Forums so insecure about these stereotypes? It feels like everyday theres a thread about this so that Zig Forumsutists can feel farther away to be labeled as incels

>unbearable smugness
>attracts a harem, but no one would call it that
>has a degree in female psycholgy
>monogamous 'save myself for marriage' despite being hormone driven teen with multiple potential love interests

I think is because those characters are well liked in places like reddit and MAL

Protagonists who squat while shitting on the toilet

Then post there and not here, no one wants to hear you people cry about this shit like a broken record

that has more to do with you than the character

They just obsess over video games and epeen instead, and then post cringe shit on reddit.

Zig Forums is always seething about stereotypes and tropes

The difference is these "literally me" characters are the polar opposite because they're not insecure retards stuttering over their words and obsessing over the girl who touched them that one time.

It has nothing to do with the character or the viewer, it has everything to do with the narration

Based

It serves as a reinforcement for redefining their own failures. They weren't autistic spergs that everyone avoided. They were actually just cool lones wolves doing their own thing and just didn't slay puss in high school because they're so virtuous.

How are they lazy? are Haitman and Sakuta particularly intelligent?

It seems to mostly just mean “gloomy guy with opinions who gets a girlfriend, because he has a personality and opinions I can't self-insert into him; I need something to criticize him on to vent my frustration with my lack of self-insertion.”

Fuck u insecure faggots. I enjoy self inserting to these characters and enjoy my dose of dopamine which is better than nutting. I feel a strong sense of satisfaction when the literally mes flaunt their chad energy. Seethe u faggots

I have never felt boredom once in my entire life so it's difficult to relate to these kind of personalities. They're amusing to watch from afar but my perspective makes it impossible to sympathize with the whole "not standing out" viewpoint. It appears to me as if the person is underestimating what I see as a once upon a time chance which is ultimately what life itself is. Every moment counts so why not taking full advantage of the situation? I love being alive a little too much honestly, I don't know how can someone cope with leaving earth.

Only on r/anime.
r/manga so possibly has even more self-inserters than Zig Forums. All they read there is are romance stories with teenage male protagonists that have no personality, whom every single character in the story swoons over with no explanation given as to why with upvoted comments of “Harem end, please? please?”

R*ddit never ceases to disgust me.
