    Dislike: pink haired tsunderes who have a complex of their chests, MCs winning because of the power of 'friendship', villain gwho always attack the heroe one at a time starting from weakest instead of attacking all at once(remember power rangers)

    Likes: Ecchi, boobs, boobs, hot spring&beach and other similar eps. Intelligent MC. Almost forgot. A good storyline is nice.

    Anime cliche:almost every anime ends up having a beach party episode Idk how but they do...it could be a series about space and they would still find some time to fan service a beach party scene

    Likes: when the mc trips and falls 'the accidental pervert scenes' it can be hilarious depending on how the author plays it out
    Dislikes:when the mc trips and falls 'the accidental pervert scenes' they can really highlight how wimpy the main character is too, though a couple mc's can have hilarious responses

    Web novel cliche: People think it's fine to just give your MC some sort of powerboost and say he deserves it. He really doesn't. Just be a good writer and say it was random. Of course, if you just keep giving him OP crap and using the "it's random" excuse, then you also just suck as a writer in general...

    Anime Cliche: Big Boobs. Just, keep it to a minimum... we can get big boobs in other anime(hentai)...

    LN: Moody protagonist. We get it, it's moody, but somehow he gets the harem, or the OP item, or the super rival... Sighs... chuuni imagination of what a cool, dark protag should look like is too much....

    Dislike: Such thing as "exp/strength/etc boost" exists in a non-game like novel. "exp boost" can be like just some magical fruit or ingredient that makes you stronger. Seriously, no need to grind or train or whatever. Just find [blank] and you'll get stronger. And you'll always find what you want.

    A very strong protagonist but yet he struggles every battle or so.

    The protagonist always able to cause a disturbance and then sneak away with stealing something precious from two really strong factions/opponents. Yeah...right.

    Add more later, lunch time.

    Dislike:
    -Violent tsundere,
    -the heroines are always high class girls (princesses, daughters of rich families, school number 1 beauty/idol and girls not far behind), -noesebleeds,
    -almost yandere bro-con,
    -lolicon/shotacon (i mean sexualised underage girls/boys)
    -perverted physics law (I remember that episode of IS where Charlotte was walking behind Ichika, she triped, hit her back, and through the power of anime, found herself on her back with Ichika above her groping her breast. For some reason, she went from behind him to in front of him with her chest facing him)
    -"I want to crush him, so I'll send someone weak to do the job"
    -protagonist let annoying girl bossing him around for no good reason (Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance)
    -traps
    - special: Harem

    Likes:
    - special: Harem
    -protagonist can do some planning instead of just going with the flow, or just not thinking before acting
    -nice boobs and butts (a lot nicer than the real usual japanese girl)
