Since romance loving people have been pushing for a romantic conclusion to ecchi harem shows since forever despite knowing it'll end with the tsundere, shouldn't all the romance shows have the tsundere main heroine as karma?

No. I don't dislike them but I'll like a variety of heroines in animes.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

Tsunderes are one of the worst character archetypes which exist, so any good romance should generally aim not to have any in the first place.

(Also, no decent romance plays "who will the hero/heroine end up with" games. You can't write a good romance whilst concealing whom the romance is between.)

Even though I like tsundere characters, I don't think that making tsundere be the main heroines in all romance animes is a good idea.

Strongly disagree. Should be Kuuderes instead.

They just work best for romance anime that tend to drag and avoid reaching a conclusion. The trope and characteristics for tsunderes are a perfect fit for shows like this and hence the main heroine in a lot of them. But just like everything else, too much of it and it becomes annoying.

Im fine with it, but i prefer not all romance anime to have them as Lead.

Btw If you're watching a harem anime specially older ones with a Tsundere lead expect her to win, well..expect most main heroines to win in general, not just tsunderes.

nah that's your opinion, some people are fine with them like me. I do enjoy some tsunderes if the characterization is good.

I don't think I'd have a problem with that. Clearly tsunderes are the best out of all the archetypes you could pull out of the hat to make this question with.

No, all tsunderes, both male and female, should be called out for being abusive bitches/assholes and dumped in the worst way possible. I'm sick of them always getting their way and winning.

I am not against tsundere or anything, but why does anime need to have some tsundere or yandere as the main character, can't just a normal one not work ???

Yes, we need more tsunderes. You can never have too many tsunderes. In fact, if I had it my way there would ONLY be tsunderes in everything forever.

All you tsundere haters are the real tsunderes here, pretending you don't like them when we all know deep down you're deeply in love with mikoto misaka

Is there even a point in having a romantic conclusion to an ecchi harem? Surely if you're watching stuff like that, you aren't doing so for any "plot".

Let's be real here. We're not all in the mood to have 24/7 emotional baggage and drama thrown around.

In terms of the romcom genre, I genuinely don't think tsunderes should always be an anime's main heroine. Sure, we've seen tsunderes being the more defining characteristics of the genre, but I think it would be nice to let other -dere types be part of the main action.

Don't get me wrong, tsunderes often do a good job when driving the plot along with romcoms, but there are some instances where their antics and drama get a bit too repetitive.

I agree with you. I don't really like tsunderes. I really don't even know how the trope works. The MC will get treated coldly and rudely by the FMC and after all that the MC still chooses her. Like the dumb idiot Saito from The Familiar of Zero.

The new "isekai" series: Oujisan Isekai. Not really an isekai. But yes! Tsunderes should always be the main heroines as they can be well written too. Unlike other types.

Absolutely not! Tsundere when written well can be absolutely great (Kagami Hiiragi, Rin Tohsaka, Vegeta) but most of the time it's just annoying and bitchy, instead of being cute.


Himedere > all other dere (except maybe Sadodere),

That said, i would much rather see the heroines be written with genuine personalities rather than just being reduced to some overused trope. Most of the best girls in shows i've seen don't really fall into a dere type at all, actually. Hange, Revy, Satsuki (unless Chadere is a thing), Yoruichi etc.

When done correctly, I think tsundere characters can be good such as Misaka Mikoto.

Wait, was I not supposed to answer this seriously? My bad.
