Kanbaru is a excellent example of that she is the classical example of a tomboy sports girl but the series uses her to explore the theme of regret, shame and jealousy. Every character that falls under a character archetype is given a realistic reason for being that archetype and then the series continues to explore that character. But Monogatari manages to turn that genres into one of the deepest anime in existence by using the archetypes to explore abuse relationships trauma sexuality and many other topics. Most harem shows are very shallow with nothing to say. More specific of tropes you see in Harem anime (anime were the protagonist, usually a teenage boy, is surrounded by a tone of quirky girls that are attracted to him or will be). So here's the thing about the Monogatari franchise it's one of those anime that you need some familiarity with a range of different anime tropes to fully appreciate it, as it's a deconstruction of many tropes you see in anime. Status: Side character in most Monogatari seasons (main character of Hanamonogatari) Genre: school mystery supernatural romance The dynamic those two have is very engaging. While Krista stole the show in season 3 her character completely changing from a timid nice girl to a confident assertive girl. Ymir became a very sympathetic character once we got to know her backstory. I think Krista and Ymir benefited the most from those efforts. This show always had a problem with characters being one note: he's the loud protagonist, his the genius best friend, she's the badass heroine, but the author specifically made sure to fix that in season 2 and 3. I don't think I have to explain the plot of this anime even if you never watched anime in your life you probably heard of this anime: humanity lives behind walls that shield them from man eating titans, but a Colossal Titan comes along, kicks down the door and shit goes down.
Status: Side character ( Historia can be argued to be the main character of season 3) This is a follow up to my blog "LGBT Representation in anime: main characters".
