Ytlaya posted:It's actually kinda interesting how the tropes differ between shoujo and shounen romances. In shounen the MC is either a loser who acquires the affection of a bunch of girls through either "saving them" in some way or just completely arbitrarily. The MC also is usually very average looking and not particularly attractive or unattractive*. In shoujo, the protagonist, while stated to be "average", is usually quite pretty (though more in the sense of being skinny/cute rather than having big boobs, etc), and guys usually end up interested in her because she's "not like all those other girls" (who are often depicted as being universally terrible unless they're the protagonist's close friends - it's actually kinda interesting how vicious a lot of shoujo manga is in its depiction of any girls outside of the protagonist's close circle). Despite its problems, overall I prefer the shoujo depictions because the love interests don't tend to fawn over the protagonist as much.

Pierson posted:Also I heard a big problem in how the west 'sees' anime is that all that gets brought over here is licensed stuff which tends to be the big popular series and related/similar genres which they're pretty sure will sell. Anything else requires either a company taking a gamble on something, or that some rando with talent both really loves a more obscure series and also love them enough to want to do the hard work of making a presentable fan-translation. So all we get is a small snapshot of comics from the big publishers, labour-of-love projects, and porn. these days most anime gets licensed just because streaming sites need stuff to fill out their catalogue and can usually get stuff on the cheap. the stuff that doesn't get licensed is usually stuff that both demands a high price and has absolutely no appeal to the average crunchyroll user, like aikatsu or precure. and there's usually only a few things like that a season. however, since you said 'comics,' im assuming you meant anime as in 'anime and manga', and yeah, we get barely any manga.
