It's wild how the Danganronpa guy comes up with like 20 wild unique instantly iconic character designs every game and then the protagonist always looks like a gijinka of a high school uniform

Quinneapolis
like if you trained an AI on anime protag boys

Quinneapolis
not a single characteristic

Quinneapolis
like you played a dating sim MMO and set all sliders to default during character creation

every time I think I have my image of Naegi correct I realize I'm thinking of Komaeda

Quinneapolis
like the personification of the word 'average'

skerple
okay to be fair, Hinata has characteristic

Quinneapolis
is it the ahoge

skerple
... i meant that to be plural but ok

skerple
it's the ahoge

skerple
and also his weird eye thing

skerple
naegi is AGGRESSIVELY Average though you're so right

Quinneapolis
just


skerple
even his personality is oatmeal

Quinneapolis
look at all these Designed little guys

Quinneapolis
and then there's Boy With Hair

mózhēngist
i refuse this libel of Kaede

Quinneapolis
isn't she not the protagonist

bluecanary
i always thought it was deliberate

bluecanary
project better onto protagonist without strong traits

A Grinning DM
It reminds me of when the Oatmeal read Twilight and renamed the main protag Pants because of how bland she was

A Grinning DM
Literally a character designed to have no personality so you can insert yourself into them like a pair of pants

Quinneapolis
it's deliberate but that doesn't make it good

A Grinning DM
I wasn’t trying to imply it was good

mózhēngist
Hinata's blandness is definitely deliberate like what ↑ said. But it's not so much for player insertion
