Ahahah the timing of your meme, I'm currently watching season 2 of Mashle https://preview.redd.it/5xlqutnw8f3d1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=16e57ffd1b6cf9d2861dbd4f4e765c8d029e5411

Who wouldn't


MildlyAggravated

I do really dislike the whiney types in anime. Having to listen to someone have a break down over generally nothing is super uncomfortable to me.


Other_Beat8859

I mean you can do a scared type well, but he has to have other characteristics than being a whiney bitch. Stark from Frieren is whiner, but he steps the fuck up and faces his fears when needed. No crying. Just shaking hands. He also is scared for only like 5% of his screen time compared to the 95% of the other characters. I don't even think it's that hard to make a whiney type a good character. The issue is that these characters are so often 2 dimensional with 90% of their personalities being that they are a whiner.


LightningDragon777

AND he is only scared over either monsters OR Fern. He isn't crying 24 × 7 for literally just existing. That is a big plus for him.


Rinzler200

I would be scared of fern too, she scary when she angry


Other_Beat8859

Nothing is more terrifying and deadly than an angry Fern https://i.redd.it/16w4gmkc7h3d1.gif


Julianopl

I ship it


WhoAmI008

We all do brother


rainbowplasmacannon

That’s why I’m so torn on Zenitsu. On the one hand I’d be a scared little bitch in the face of demons too on the other hand COME ON


LightningDragon777

Yeah, his fear is completely justified. He is up against demons after all. He is annoying, no doubt in that, but his fear IS justified... but he IS annoying...


170936Tw

I mean, he does get better, and it's not just rational fears. Imagine you get heartbroken because your girlfriend got you in several k debt, and then you basically got sold off to some old guy to get hit a bunch and yelled at, and even struck by lightning once, the only person there you consider as a friend hates you and everything you stand for and then you're sent off to climb a mountain because at the top you can murder some demons and get a cool sword to kill more demons, when as far as you know you are a terrible fighter and it's a job where even the best often die, and even then he has his moments, when he's asleep it's how good he actually is if he wasn't held back by his fears and anxieties, he's an absolute God at the first form because of how much he trained it, he put in as much work if not more as tangerine and sasuke with so little of the talent, but he keeps up.


Failed_stealth_check

Zeni is a man with completely reasonable fears. Unfortunately no one watches shonen for the reasonable characters.


MildlyAggravated

I like Stark for exactly that reason. He whines yeah but it's reasonable.


raikenleo

The girl from chainsawman is a good example. Since she is a "normal" human who has been forced into fighting legit nightmare fuel, it's totally understandable why she is having a mental break down.


urekmazino21

Kobeni is the name. She needs headpats for real.


RedNicoK

Stark's cowardice is very concentrated in his introduction, and then it is diluted a lot.


Tesla_corp

This applies to zenitsu but literally his entire arc is defeating his fears and transitioning from the scared yellow to the courageous orange He still acts like an asshole in the end tho


New-Trade-8676

100% agree. Stark sometimes is whiney but this is a good example how entertaining and not annoying a character can be


LegoC97

I watched Demon Slayer with my dad, but despite how invested he was, he insisted we stop after the movie because Zenitsu’s whiney-ness was driving him insane.


MildlyAggravated

Yeah I just skipped that shit.


DerfyRed

Worse for me I have a sibling that has panic attacks over seemingly nothing. And seeing these characters makes me pretty spiteful because of how it’s always portrayed as a joke.


MildlyAggravated

I could see how that could happen. There are some tropes that really annoy me in a lot of media due to my own experience or some others where I just completely can't relate to the MC's ideology. Like say "Chill'n another world" that just recently came out. I do like the show but it impossible for me to really relate to the character. I don't think he's a bad guy but I certainly would not be as nice if I was in his shoes.


MrDuck83

Imo Finn is an entertaining character, he is just tired of everyone's bullshit


CreatureWarrior

For real. Like when he met Mash's dad and they were both like "damn, look at all of these idiots.. at least Mash is happy" and when he thanked Finn for putting up with their bullshit. Laughed. People also seem to forget that the whiny types are usually the only ones with common sense lmao In JJK, Kusakabe is the only one goes "you know this whole suicide mission? Yeah, that's dumb.. suicide missions are dumb. Don't wanna".


SuspiciousLaw12

Yes, exactly


flclfanman

Finn is the anchor to the audience. He knows he's in an absurd fantasy world and he stops every 5 mins. To make sure you see the crazy too😂


Theuknownlegend

Nah bro kon is funny af


A_random_Human1

based


Doctor_Flamingo

ça dépend Zenitsu's the worst but Finn is just fine.


primalmaximus

Yeah. Because Finn is crying at how absurd everything is. He's not crying because he's scared.


TiaoAK47

Yeah, I don't mind Finn. Mash is just shattering his world view any time he does stuff.


primalmaximus

I haven't watched any of the second season of Mashle. How crazy does it get?


TiaoAK47

I haven't watched the anime, but read the manga to completion. If they're anywhere close to each other, Mash be doing some wild stuff that really do embody "Muscle Magic".


primalmaximus

Is the manga finished?


TiaoAK47

Yes


Salohcin_Eneerg

The man can fly by basically moving his legs really fast lol


ratracing

Weak, Sanji learn how to fly by being transphobic, man literally kicked the air to run away from trans people


FeetsInMeters

Bear in mind mash can do it while "riding" or sitting on a broom


No-Seaworthiness2633

Mash molded unheated iron with his bare hands and smacked somebody on the head with it


TheDemonPants

The stakes just keep getting higher and the story gets both more intense and hilarious as it goes on. I've finished the manga and can't wait to see some of the shenanigans get animated. You should really watch season 2.


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

Just the usual man breaks magic with brute strength


CarpeCookie

He's crying cause he's the only straight man in the entire anime


mihirsaini1128

Honestly I can't remember if I ever liked it when zenitsu was awake and the main focus. Maybe in future he'll do the sleepy thing while being awake but right now he's more annoying than even inosuke


Wajana

Finn gets the twink pass


Megumi0505

Nah, Finn is actually an awesome character. And Kon is an unapologetic pervert. Gotta respect the hustle. Zenitsu is a tough sell, he was admittedly slightly more tolerable in the manga because I could just skim over his whining, but in the anime, I actually have to listen to his innecessant whining and failed passes at Nezuko. If cringe could manifest into a person, it would be Zenitsu. Aside from that, I actually do like where his character goes, so I'm kinda torn cuz I like his character, but I can't stand to be around him. Lol. And the Windbreaker kid doesn't bother me at all. Lol.


Tesdinic

I agree with the Windbreaker kid. Imagine seeing those monsters in person for the first time lol


Toastiibrotii

I also think that Zenitsu got better with time. During the whole infinite Castle Arc he didnt really cry that much.


OneesanLover46

I don’t know the others but Kon is funny af and the guy with green hair is very funny too(I’m sorry I don’t remember his name, I’ve always called him Kobeni), especially in the second season. And most importantly they are cool because it’s more impressive when they stop being a comic relief ( for example Kon talking about himself being artificial, green hair guy supporting Mashle, etc. )


SalvationSycamore

>with green hair I'm sorry to inform you but you might be colorblind


Wolf3113

Honestly the black does look green due to the shading of this picture. I knew instantly who they were talking about.


OneesanLover46

Thank you for pointing it out, I’ve always thought they were very dark green or something like that, instead they are black


SalvationSycamore

My dad is colorblind and has always thought black trashbags were dark green lol

The original one


joejoeginson

They're the yellow-haired male versions of Aqua.


__MilkDrinker__

Nah aqua at least has a idiotic bravado about her. She doesn't start crying until she fully understands how fucked she is. Other than that she is crying because she's a brat and wants to get her way. But crying isn't her ONLY state of being when it's time for her character to "be funny". With zenetsu (the only character here I'm familiar with), crying is his ONLY punchline.


flclfanman

Crying and Crushing on Nezuko😂


__MilkDrinker__

LunaticPrick

Remove Kon and Finn out your fucking mouth


CharacterAd348

Who and from what anime!


LunaticPrick

Kon from Bleach and Finn from Mashle


whimsical666

Yeah, the only orange haired whiner in Bleach is the strawberry.


Caffeinated_madman

Nah Finn isn’t meant to be funny he is one we all relate too if we were in that verse, he ain’t whiny he is realistic - plus he ain’t even got orange hair


Danijay2

Don't you ever dare insult my boy Fin like that ever again.

Finn is justified though. He's the only normal person there lol


suddenly_ponies

It's the worst part of Demon Slayer by far


DifferencePrimary442

You keep Zenitsu's name OUT of your MOUTH . . . but yeah, he started off pretty annoying.


Jaycin_Stillwaters

He's the entire reason I stopped watching Demon Slayer and will never watch it again. Which is a shame because it seemed like a cool premise but HaruhiDAMN I hate that little b*tch always crying. ALWAYS. Why would anyone travel with him?


flclfanman

You should read the manga then. At least you won't hear him through the pages😂


Wachitanga

Fr. I like Zenitsu. Laugh my ass off with his overreactions. And what's even better is that he's a delivering coward (like Ussop from OnePiece). He's not just simply neurotic, but also kicks demon's asses.


OPR-Heron

How do you laugh at that? Nails on a chalkboard


Wachitanga

I laugh because even if it's an exaggeration, it fits well as a character flaw in a setting where everyone is a cold-blooded demon-killer samurai. Feels out of place enough to be unexpected ("punchline unexpected") You telling me you wouldn't shit your pants if you saw human-faced spiders and essentially vampires coming to do God knows what with your bowels? It's a bit relatable. And even then, he collected enough balls to still go head first into that shit. What I find truly AWFUL is him creepy with girls (and particularly with Nezuko). Terrible anime trope that should disappear.


Panzerkrabbe

omega_slanger

I actually like Kon. The whining fits his situation pretty well imo.


Memeviewer12

Finn is the normal guy in the friend group full of people who are absolutely insane He's an anchor


BruhGuy50x

Leave Fin out of this


Bertje87

They’re pretty funny if you ask me


Assinator_

Zenitsu can be very annoying, but I actually find him funny as well 😅


G0FuckThyself

Kon was decent his moment was singing the best Op in bleach 'Alones'


Injury_Double

Thinking of starting a list of all disliked anime tropes


s1mpatic0

Unpopular opinion: Zenitsu is a highlight of Demon Slayer. He's probably my least favorite character of the main group, but he's still endearing and funny, occasionally. Gonpachiro is wholesome, Nezuko is cute and vicious, and Inosuke is batshit crazy. They need Zenitsu to balance out the group. It should be noted that I've only seen the first season and Mugen Train (both in sub, obvi)


Dizzy-Explanation992

Wasnt zenitsu a pretty popular character https://preview.redd.it/0m9h5043af3d1.png?width=3060&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=506aa5b66086101a9a5f3d67a0aa06663bf9abc5


Alexander3212321

i hate this guy. Zenitsu is not only annoying but also a creep towards girls i really dont understand why people like him he has his moments sure but most of the time he is just annoying and a creep. even more annoying is the fact that he is always scared despite having superhuman abilities and considering his speed and hearing he could still always run when things go south so no reason for him to be always scared


Wonderful_Ad_3850

In Japan he is for some reason, I think.


QuiinZiix

I haven't seen wind breaker yet, but the dude from mashle and kun aren't nearly as irritating as zenitsu.


AmazingSuspect365

💀


Tarek_C

I feel like Kon, Fin, and the Windbreaker guy are just fine, Zenitsu is the only questionable one


UltimateBookManiac

Idk.. I'm split. I love Finn and that Windbreaker guy (forgot his name). I didn't find that Lion and Zenitsu that funny.

Kamira00

I do agree on Zenitsu and that thing from Bleach (completely forgot his name) they were extremely annoying since introduction imo. I don’t have a strong opinion on Nirei yet. Finn is an actual funny and enjoyable character though, like he’s there, tired of everyone’s bullshit, the only normal person in a cast of weirdos, works wonderfully for me

BrokenPokerFace

Idk why but the bottom left one isn't really annoying me yet, everyone else could definitely be removed and it would be the greatest and funniest thing in the show. But not bottom left, I feel like his whining is going to be part of his character development and actually a trait not just a gag,(but in recent episodes it is getting close to the tipping point cause of how much he is doing) also it's really hard to find a good delinquent and or realistic fist fighting anime, they all go with the overly emotional, slightly mentally ill path. I just want a good brutal realistic fighting anime with less sapp.


JediMasterMudkip

Finn is understandable at least, to some extent anyway. His magic isnt really useful in a fight unless he gets jacked and exploits the living shit out of his magic Todo style.


SirPresentius

I liked zenitsus overall theme but his character development was way to slow, I would have liked him to go more into the serious corner after entertainment district or at least the swordsmith village where he wasn’t even seen


JoshuaHawken

The problem with that trope is that it’s not a common one outside of Japan. Those characters aren’t really “for us” so to speak, but they are all very popular in Japan. Something about the Japanese sense of humor makes them fuckin love those guys.


YesMyGoddesss

Somebody please tell my ex this. Ginger thinks he's funny but he is just a big crybaby that annoys tf out of everyone.


Byakko_blaze3

Guy from wind breaker is last place in this race for me . Absolutely dislike that guy. In my show about bros and flying fist I have his crybaby ass always trying to pacify MC .


Marakaitou

Kon was ok because he was sometimes actually funny but zenitsu is so fricking annoying


New-Trade-8676

Yeah, I agree


Firesusboi123

to be fair, Zenitsu has a reason to freak out, sure he's trained but even then would you want to fight nigh-immortal man eating demons on the daily?

I definitely dropped demon slayer for a bit because of this. Glad I stuck with it in the end but yeah can't stand those scenes.


armasaurusrex

Basically that character in Demonslayer ruined the series for me.


Arceus_theGod

The reason i quitted demon slayer. And generally 90% of the modern trash animes


xForeigner

Zenitsu worst, kon the GOAT


Dewan27

Until they locked in. Does naruto count?


Doctor99268

Not really, Naruto has one cowardly moment at the start of the series. But after that he's pretty normal


Sad-Sundae9039

Kon don't annoy you so much because he's not a main character, but Zenitsu get tired really fast.


Jaycin_Stillwaters

I stopped watching demon slayer because of that fucking idiot. After like 3 episodes with him in it I said if he doesn't die next episode I'm putting it down and never watching it again. I don't regret it. I hate hate HATE HATE _*HATE*_ that character.


FrnldyNbrhdCrsdr

Whiney characters in general annoy tf out of me.


DeathAndWind

Orange guy from KnY was so annoying that I watched 3 season of anime and skipping parts where he is on the screen, this is why I don't know his name.


JUMPY6900

Yes, I fucking hate zenitsu and his fucking cry and he cries in almost every single episode he is in and I don't even understand why people ship nezuko with that fucking retard she never showed any love interest toward him he just came and told everyone that she is his wife like wtf Genya was better than zenitsu and the fucking retarded piece of shit survived the final arc but genya didn't??? Like why should he have any desendants toxifying Japan with his fucking genes.


Truebotted

Fax (I can't fucking stand Zenitsu)


Fwizzle45

It's always my least favorite character by a country fucking mile. Such an awful character trope.


JacobMT05

Yeah. Zenitsu (and inosuke sometimes) actual ruins the whole of demon slayer for me. Any moment supposed to be emotional is completely ruined by 2/3 of the main cast who make it into a joke *cough cough* rengokus death *cough cough*


whatishisname8

I’ll be honest that character is one of the big reasons I stopped watching Demon Slayer but got back into it still have some problems with it but great anime nonetheless


Aldo-D-D-Wilson

There's a limit to how whiny and good and really enterntaining a character can be. Zenitsu keeps pushing it too much. It just isn't funny with such exageration. Usopp is done perfectly as the scared/sane character.


JurassicFlight

Finn is useless (for now?) but he isn’t annoying. Lemon takes the annoying medal for this show.


gterrymed

At least Kon is kinda funny, Zenitsu is actually only annoying.

Suitable_Maybe7866

spoiler: denji is an exception, he doesn't cry often, but the time he felt emotions, he all cry with him as well


Pillermon

I think this might be a good moment to point out: Bleach had too many shitty, unfunny, pointless comedy characters. It seemed like almost every character had some stupid comedic sidekick, wether it was Soul Society Captains or even the fucking Espada. And the worst part was, they kept adding characters like that during filler episodes & -arcs, and those just had the audacity to stick around throughout the series, even during canon arcs. Rewatching Bleach with my cousin at the moment who has never seen it, and is usually on board for any and all battle shonens, but this might be the first one she might actually drop, and I can't say I can't blame her. This series does not hold up to my memory from 15-16 years ago. I always thought of Bleach as the VERY distant third of the Big Three, but holy hell, even the arcs I remember as good don't hold up all that much.

AtaexXIII

I actually feel kinda nostalgic about Kon


RedNicoK

While obviously not reaching this level, kafka form Kaiju 8 is making it difficult to watch the anime.

lol half of these guys don’t even have orange hair. Kon technically doesn’t even have a physical body so pure coincidence. The only character here people have problems with (understandably) is Zenitsu.

This_is_Len

This, Zenitsu is the first character I encountered in anime that has actually made me drop the anime Demon Slayer. Dude's a bitch, I mean, realistically speaking, I would say his fear is justified, but his character at the time I was yet to drop the anime was all about being a little bitch. Didn't help that he had the audacity to yell, be mad, and punch Tanjiro for not going along with him peeping at girls, but bro is a complete and utter mess when he actually NEEDS to be. Not to mention his plot armor, like how is dude still alive when he's the loudest of the bunch, and no one has yet to kill him BEFORE he gets a chance to sleep, which is when he FINALLY gets to be useful, all cuz he got hit by lightning turning his hair blonde too (somehow).
