Where you trying to construct a logical sentence and then just stumbled over yourself?

>> No.1508404

There's two types of protagonist:

1. The Hero: An ass-kicker and champion of justice. When he hears the words "save me!" he will leap into action, beating up armies of ninjas, monsters and aliens. He is badass.

2. The Everyman: A normal person who is driven into a corner by evil forces, and then finally awakens to his hidden potential and defeats the bad guys at the last moment.

Most eroge protagonists are the Everyman type, including Shiki, Shirou and Takumi. Morita is an example of the Hero.

Only in games in which aren't action/adventure oriented. In which case, the male protagonists have a number of archtypes: Cool, Otaku, Hot-Blooded, Punk, etc. They never save anyone, so they have to rely on the way they treat girls as measures of their manliness. It would be incredibly difficult to call any of them "badass".
