Is Deku a badly written character?
Is Deku a badly written character?
He is well written but boring so he is a bad character for me
It's a badly written show
He’s fine, Zig Forums just regurgitates multi year old memes and things they learned by osmosis as if they’re true facts.
Yes, but that's pretty standard for his manga.
>"This is the story on how I became the greatest hero!"
>300 chapters and the only change is him going through puberty
Give him some genuine character development already even the fucking spinoff pulled it off and it's on what chapter 80?
this, it's a cool premise, but unless you have some serious writing chops a story about being quite literally born wrong wont cut it with a weak protagonist.
It was obviously a story with a clearly defined end goal, but once it got popular and merch started flying off shelves it was put on narrative stasis for the rest of eternity.
The best part is how Hori keeps throwing power ups at the kid. He has four quirks already and he's not even a second year student
One of the worst MC’s ever in the history of shonen.
Eh I'd argue it was obvious there never was an end goal. Like initially you'd think Hori would deconstruct what it means to be a hero with his classmates giving different point of views and conflicts naturally arising, but it's really obvious it's just going to be another villain of the weak manga with no end
Like hori is ending this last fight by having the villains just teleport away so literally no one wins
He becomes really unlikable in the last season so far of the anime and I don't think it was intentional. He already had some bad moments before (I cheered when Lida punched him and I tend to HATE these scenes) but god, he has become an annoying, melodramatic faggot.
It's amazing how much better vigilante is without him.
best jeanist is a better character than deku
nah, he's shit, but there are far worse MCs in the history of WSJ, are you fucking kidding me
read more manga
He's been an absolute retard this last arc. Charging headfirst at shiggy like a fucking idiot and putting OFA at risk. His true quirk is how the plot continues to save his ass with convenient bullshit.
name 3 worse ones
hell name one
The worst.
I like how the way to unlock more quirks from OFA is to put yourself in a life or death situation and the quirk will just shit out the quirk that is best suited for the situation you are in
>Shiggy is flying! Oh hey I can float now!
>"I'm gonna work super hard and become the beat superhero!"
>proceeds to literally beg the best superhero in the world for power.
>gets them, obviously already good at having super powers
Yes. He's terrible. A lot of popular shonen protagonists are really bad.
No idea why everyone always shits on deku when literally every single character in this shitfest is just as bad.
>deku goes against a villain that completely negates his quirk
>muscular is just shrugging off all might level 100% punches
>deku can't just rely on his overpowered quirk and needs to actually be a hero
>the solution isn't to take a loss or find another way to defeat him but instead just get really angry and yell "ONE MILLION PERCENTO PUNCHO" and one shot him
How anyone can enjoy the fights in the story anymore is beyond me.
Just from the top of my head:
Any MC from a Masakazu Katsura manga.
Tsuna.
Yugi.
Any MC from axed series, like:
TPGW MC.
If they're not worse, they're just as bad as him for different reasons.
He's just a generic shonen protag. I don't mean generic as in similar to protags in the biggest, most well-known titles but the genre as a whole, the myriad series that were forgotten as soon as they ended. He offers nothing interesting or unique.
The end was defined at one point, but it feels like it was always meant to be the obligatory, bloated series that would go on until the mangaka retires/fucks up his wrist or back. Not to mention that the original end was already scrapped and repurposed for a shitty movie so now who the fuck knows how much of the story is currently planned out.
>yugi
Cmon you are baiting. He was a beta which made the atem switch important but he outgrew him. Unlike cucku
He was good for about four chapters.
They gave up on actually pacing it briskly and developing a story before the end of the second volume.
You learn how to read first. I said one of the worst MC’s. Not THE worst. Comprehension skills 0
I am not baiting. I told you like 6 MCs while you asked for one, and you only have issue with one of them. Please try harder, tripfag. Read more manga.
Mind you I'm not defending Deku at the slightest. He is a shit character. But WSJ has a fucking history of over 50 years to look back on. Picking Deku out of that lot and putting him on a pedestal is giving him more credit than he deserves, and is just the usual Zig Forums hivemind circlejerk of what's hip to hate currently.
I cant debate tsuna because I hated Reborn!
Tsuna wasnt as bad as deku though.
Did the series peak at All Might's last fight, or are the seasons after any good?
He's just a normal shonen mc. Not particularly great, but not particularly terrible either.
Hell, if anything he's pretty realistic in how he gave up on his dream and waited until All Might noticed him. People hate him for that but most teenagers would do the same.
>Shiggy is flying! Oh hey I can float now!
based speedreader.
Absolutely
>proceeds to literally beg the best superhero in the world for power.
>muscular is just shrugging off all might level 100% punches
> yell "ONE MILLION PERCENTO PUNCHO" and one shot him
Holy fuck it really is like said
No matter how much the writer wants you to believe he's a smart kid he always just falls back on "punch harder".
And no matter how heroic he's said to be there seems to be no difference between him and any other male worth a damn in his class or any working pro. ALL the heroes are heroic AF.
So ... he's pretty lame. I'm waiting for w/e ass pull they have to save his arms now.
