I have such a BIG FUCKING problem with Makoto as a character. Like, this bitch fr the main focus yet has no character development??? Like, a character who's entire thing is abt not having talent and being insecure is somehow more spicy than the Ultimate Hope. Why?
Because CHARACTER. DEVELOPMENT. For every protag after Makoto you see their downfalls and their uprises. You see them change, you see them go through hard stuff and see how they handle it. WITH MAKOTO THE BITCH JUST SITS THERE ALL LIKE, "Oh wow hope overcomes despair blah blah blah."
(And I know some of you gonna bring up how he acted later on, but like, he's so abnornally bland in my opinion. There's nothing wrong with you if you like him, this is just how I feel abt his character.)
It's also worse when his female carbon-copy younger sister is literally a better protag than him. I mostly blame the writers for this, but if he's gonna be the main focus of the franchise as the hero shouldn't he AT LEAST be somewhat handles well?
I also kind of have a problem with him in ships, but that's mostly my problem with canon in how several girls liked him. Because now he strays from "abnormally bland MC" to "Classic Harem MC." Once again, I blame the writers on this.
But this is ENTIRELY just my opinion. People can hate and like which ever character they want and which ever ship. I'm just upset at how Makoto is handled as the main protag.
