>Le three dimensional characters.
This is a complete and utter meme. Adding pages worth of backstory and tragedy does not mean a character is well-written. Look at Spider-Man. He's not particularly deep, beyond making a tragic mistake. He's just a normal guy trying to make it through life and do the best he can do. His strength as a character comes from his ability to rise up and do the right thing. His steadfastness to being a hero isn't realistic, but he's well written regardless because it's his struggle to do good despite all that happens to him is the selling point of the character, not how realistic he is.

This. Their readers too. Great for young people getting int to reading but if you're over 16 and read comic books or visual novels, I'm going to judge you negatively.

I don’t like comic books but I do like manga. Some manga are very adult and quite good.

I like manga too but I don't pretend they are great literature pieces.

It's not comic writers specifically. If you look at all these pseuds, you notice all of them follow the same trend of "studying" philosophy and having a master's degree in it. Basically means they've been babied by their parents and never experienced the real world

This is literally everyone’s excuse, and I’d argue that in terms of literary value manga is even more childish.

i actually don't like "character depth". i read for ideas not people. the characters in the iliad and gravity's rainbow are as deep as i want it.
