In this episode of Anime Minority Report, Jamie and Guerby are diving headfirst into the anime protagonist factory. What really makes a great main character? Is it the trauma? The drip? The unnecessarily loud inner monologue? They’re breaking down the secret recipe—plot armor, emotional baggage, tragic backstory—and serving up hot takes with a side of chaos. From Tanjiro to Luffy to that one dude you swear only exists to scream “BELIEVE IT,” nothing is safe. If you’ve ever argued over who deserves the MC title or why side characters stay stealing the show, this one’s for you. Click play and catch a case of Main Character Syndrome.
