the characters are poorly developed

I really like the idea of this anime but am I the only one that thinks they’re characters are poorly developed?
Taichi - Always wanted to play this hero complex 24/7 it got obnoxious
Iori- She actually isn’t a terrible character she’s actually the only one I like
Inaba - Cant trust anyone for legit no apparent reason? I feel like she overthinks constantly but to have trust issues without a reason is odd, her character had potential
Yui - I’m mad they made her character have androphobia so it can be resolved almost instantly just from a kick to the nuts. Other than that, that’s all I seen from her
Aoki - basically a living rock.

You’ve made this post as if you went into the show with really high expectations. It’s a 7/10 show, the characters are going to be pretty bland

No, you are not alone as the people who rated this show a 6 is also significant, which meant that there are also people that moderately to not really enjoying this anime as well. You wrote few good points in your argument, However, I disagree almost entirely with your argument. Bear in mind that personality comes from both aspect, internal(biological, such as how brain perceive and process information) and external(surrounding environment and experience, such as people and experience from those interactions) and main characteristics of a character are not easily changeable which is greatly potrayed in this show. Not only that, the characters are layered in ways that makes them feel realistic.

Taichi is caring person and at the sametime also usually relied upon by his sister/friends/others so it is understandable for him to be selfless/have hero complex. Why should he change his selfless personality? What instances grant his personality to change? Just because you're fed up with it? If anything, the arcs that happened just made him understand more of that personality and it's implications.

Inaba, she's short tempered, likes to overthink(I agree with this) things and have hardtimes connecting with people(which is already explained in the anime) which accumulated to why she had trust issues even when she had finally find a place where she feels that she belongs(there's also other reason that I can't mention because it's a spoiler). Your expectations that it has to derive from some terrible past to justify them to have less than desirable personalities is short sighted in my opinion, humans are flawed.

Yui, yes what you said is one of the factors that motivated her to gradually overcome her situation but it doesn't also magically dissappear as shown in the show. Also, the context is much larger as she experience it herself instead of just randomly guessing. Your other issue is also addressed by the show(it would be a spoiler if I were to explain it).

Aoki, there's a reason as to why he's like that(just a guess here, you haven't finish this show, have you?).

Just because you don't like one or some characters doesn't translate as them being poorly written character.

This post is just my opinion. And yes I think they’re poorly written. I don’t understand why said you agree with my points then completely disagree everything I just said. I know humans are flawed but literally nothing really stood out to make me like them. Like I said issues got resolved too fast, I didn’t find the characters enjoyable to ME and characters had potential for better growth or not just have the same personality trait for 13 episodes straight. Side note why are you assuming I don’t like them if they do or don’t have troubled pasts I can still dislike them plz shut up with that.

bruh if kokoro connect was the worst anime you’ve seen then you don’t watch a lot of anime. There are thousands of worst ones

KAMISAMA_69_ said:

Umm,I mean,I've watched over 380 animes so idk if its that less
It's just that the disappointment was so much frm this,cuz when u look at this anime from outside,u r bound to get ur hopes up,but this was just a crap fest,yeah I can assure u that I've seen shows that can be called "bad" compared to this anime,bt Its just idk my personal worst show,every character just pisses me off to the point that it was the first time ive ever got angry after watching an anime lmao

Taichi stopped being selfish and stubborn and started listening to people

Inaba started trusting people


Yui didn't defeated androfobia, she still suffers it but its gettin softer.

Aoki faced his feelings after years.


Iori just complains about everyone hiding their problems and feelings, and says its stupid to think that friends will get annoyed because of showing them, and gives advice to everyone, but she just does the same and she talked because Inaba forced her and even after the last chapter she does the fucking same thing everytime, you complain about the other ones being poorly developed but you literally said that the character that makes the same mistake every episode and that didn't change shit since the start of the show is the one with better development? Lol

i made this thread only watching half of the show and i eventually dropped it because it was just unwatchable. that was just my opinion and perspective of the show from where i was at. and i still stand by what i say, just cause their personal issues got resolved doesn’t mean i’m going to suddenly find the characters enjoyable it seemed like a copy and paste of the show for 6 episodes. i felt like it would’ve worked better as an harem tbh when you barely see Aoki for half a show. i’m also aware not all humans are perfect and we’re flawed shit like that. but i just couldn’t get into the show unlike everyone else.
