anime cliches

[boujee]

The main character bumping into someone so hard they fall down or land face first in someone's boobs
Child army, just a group of teens saving the world!!!

 

[Hermione Granger]

Some slim teenager with the strength of gods

 

[emolga]

main character has more vibrant colors compaired to background characters (in a classroom, for example) to signify importance.

 

[Damniel]

Some slim teenager with the strength of gods

Cough cough Sword Art Online.

i've noticed there's always that one air headed kinda sporty friend.
(yamamoto in hitman reborn)

 

[Sugilite]

The stories or characters where two characters look like twins but aren't really twins but also be doing some weird flirting sht with each other

 

[crystalmilktea]

this is more of a genre than a cliche but i hate harem anime where every girl is weak and needs the male protagonist to save them/help them all the time

 

[Minerva]

The main character's parents usually die. Anime mothers usually have a low survival rate.

 

[Mega_Cabbage]

Oddly shaped hair that seems to defy gravity and stay together even after they have been through war (though completely falls apart when wet)

 

[Hermione Granger]

When characters get all their bones broken and appear in only bandages in the next sequence (my description is a hyperbole, but hopefully you all get what I mean)

I've seen too much moe anime. Here's what every moe anime has:

- Main character girl is the earnest type. Her favorite color is probably pink, she's probably a bit of an idiot, and not always but a lot of the times she's a bit whiny.
- The main character's cool best friend. Her favorite color is usually blue. Cool best friend is typically smart despite being cool. Yes, she's smart, but not a nerd.
- The sporty girl. She's the outgoing tomboy who is hyper and likes to play sports. Her favorite color is usually yellow.
- The tsundere girl who argues with everyone but secretly thinks everyone is her friend. Her favorite color is usually red.
- The nerdy smart quiet girl who gets dragged into this whole situation by the main character. Her favorite color is usually green.

If you beat up a 'significant villain' within the first series of your anime, there's a high chance they will become your close friend and comic relief for the rest of the anime.

They also pretty much become a pacifist at this point and mostly just yell about what is going on in battles, letting you further forget that at one point this same person was supposed to be a scary villain.

romance/slice of life school anime clich?: the two MC:s are obviously in love, but they're too shy to express their feelings. the anime ends before they've actually become a couple or even confessed their feelings.......

this is acchi kocchi.
to the tee.

 

[Aestivate]

The fact that most characters seem to have the need to dye their hair in these neon colors. Praise animes who actually use characters with black hair

 

[Megan.]

- The childhood friend
- Main character moving back to where they used to live as a child
- Girl with a flat chest
- Girl with huge boobs

I think someone has already mentioned this, but one clich? I hate SO much are the massive long speeches that a protagonist will have in the middle of a battle! Like, if you were having a fight with someone in real life, you wouldn't suddenly stop to give a massive inspiring speech about how much you love your friends, you would probably be killed if you did! It's just a bit cringey I find a lot of the time. That being said there are a lot of anime clich?s that I do love. One being the typical cultural festival episode in most slice of life/school anime. I love those episodes.

 

[Alienfish]

tsundere/damsel in distress thing.. like overdone so much. and so bad.

only good example i can find is like persona 4 where it works cause all the characters have really complex and p different personalities from most games/series and it discusses certain issues but in random as for anime ugh nty.

Sounds like Sailor Moon lmao. Although it's not that moe per se, it's more color coded to their personae/sailor soldier things.

Also yeah as someone else mentioned I hate these long speeches you make in battle or in front of someone you love/at random/whatever. No.
