Why Are Anime Protagonists' Powers So Damn Boring?
Description
In this episode of Anime Minority Report, Jamie and Guerby ask the question no one’s brave enough to scream at their screen during episode three:
Why are anime protagonists’ powers so damn boring?!
From power boosts through sheer willpower to plot armor so thick it might as well be a second character, your hosts break down the rinse-and-repeat formula behind many main characters—and why, frustratingly, it still works.
They also dive headfirst into the overpowered-isekai boom: Are fans flocking to anime where the MC is a god from day one because we’re just done with the "one-trick power with endless yelling" narrative? Or are we all secretly power-hungry?
Expect unfiltered hot takes, anime slander (in love), and laugh-out-loud moments with a side of anime wisdom.
This episode will make you laugh, rethink your faves, and maybe even pause that mid-season filler arc. Click play—you’ll thank us later.
