Westerners draw good male characters, while Easterners draw good females characters, yes.

>>5128210
Easterners used to be able to do both. But yeah, west is superior in that regard. Even nips admit defeat there.

If you want manly adult characters why are you watching shows with teen protag?
It feels to me like you just haven't looked hard enough.

Nips are low T and therefore bad at portraying masculinity. Anime tough guys always come out with that seedy rapey thing going on like picrelated and their protagonists always have a dorky-but-smug attitude as if intellect trumps all. irl anime protags would get bopped out 10/10 times

I’m not really sure where this back and forth posting is going so I’m gonna break it up and comment here, that right there that you posted is what I’m talking about. Look at his seedy little long nosed rape face. He doesn’t look cool nor macho. He looks awkward and rapey. Nips don’t know how to draw cool or masculine. Say what you will about capeshitters but at least they can draw masculinity and even put it in spandex and still look macho. I’m not even into that either. I urge you to show me an anime character that is macho but not seedy looking

Asian girls are fed the korean boy band archetype, there's no demand for masculine men.

Whereas the west is in its sjw/feminism death throes, so no adorable, innocent girls are allowed neither in media or in societies. Besides, the inquisition killed all truly beautiful western women. Just compare any English speaking country, or west/north Europe, to Ukraine and you'll see what's missing from our gene pool.

these are actors played by real living men? no one designed them. thats just how the actors look. unless you think they shat bruce lee out of a 3d printer.

Yeah I agree with OP. I think there's more originality and a willingness to stray away from the conventional face shapes (tf2 is a great example). Anime has always looked a bit too samey. That said some western shit is samey as hell, OW and Valorant as examples
