Watched nearly all of Inou Battle Wa Nichijou no Naka De today, and I really like it, but goddamn...
Why is it always the worst girl who gets the most attention, and the one the protagonist eventually falls for?. It annoys the hell out of me when the plainest, most boring girl on the cast is the main female character, usually with a last minute back story thrown in for good measure.
Like seriously all the other girls are awesome, especially Hakoto who is by far the best girl, yet everytime she gets an episode about her it gets sidetracked by Tomoyo instead who just gets force fed into the show in every way.
It just.. arghhhh. Give all the girls equal screentime or don't bother. what is the point of romance plots like this when you know exactly which girl is endgame because of how forced into the plot she is.
I have only watched one anime before where this was subverted, I think it was Haganai, I don't have many friends, or something like that. But basically the main girls were shafted in season 2 in favour of the nerdy comic relief girl who was in the background compared to the others, and she ended up being the most interesting character on the show.
