Larger number of fans means more and more bad fanart (it also increases the amount good fanart, but not by as much). Also, the art style isn't very versatile.

I'm not too fond of this genderbending idea that the Haruhi fanbase seems to be infatuated with.

If Haruhi was male and "he" treated female Kyon like that it would be in pretty bad taste, just like bullying. Kyon should stay male imo.

Gender roles are fucking retarded.
>> Anonymous

Wait...wait.

Kyon should stay a guy...because it's somehow BETTER for a girl to bully and harrass a guy?

I dare you to make a coherent argument for your point of view that isn't ragingly sexist.

The 'point' of Haruhi (or Haruki)'s misbehavior is that feeling isolated and alone has driven him (Or her) to act out in a socially unacceptable manner, but Kyon gets under his/her skin, and s/he learns to be more 'human' as the time goes on, by forging a shaky emotional connection with Kyon. It has nothing at all to do with gender roles.

At the risk of sounding sexist...

Media typically portrays men as the perpetraitor of domestic abuse, and don't try to deny that. I'm not trying to say that reverting genders would radically change the story, I'm just pointing out the sensitivity some people may have to this subject.

Plus, a guy wearing a headband is pretty weird.
>> Anonymous
>>670940
It'd work better, actually. And since we all loves Kyon, no matter what gender, Kyonko would work really, really, really well, because we'd love her/him/whatever even more.

But if Haruhi was reading too much MariMite....

So what you're saying is Kyon being female would make the story better because we wouldn't feel gay?

If she gets physical, then yes, because it's statistically likely that she will be capable of inflicting less physical damage. Also, it will be harder for her to rape him. Besides, he will likely generally feel less threatened than a woman would feel if the roles were reversed, making it slightly easier to endure psychically. I'm not sure if this would be balanced out by the feeling of "failing as a man" for being threatened by a woman; possibly that would make it as psychically hard for a man as it would've been for a woman. But the physical aspect is pretty important, I'd say.

Yes.
Besides that, they fit more into the supposed "roles".
Besides that, a guy wearing a headband is ... strange. Which makes it awesome. Which.... I'm going to shut up now and go find some pictures to post.

How so? Is it more common for a man to be considered "eccentric"?
>> Anonymous
>>670959

The guy being more laid back and cool, and the girl being the tsundere type? Yeah...that's a pretty cuneiform role. A really cute girl being overbearing is more acceptable than a handsome guy who is being overbearing and as forceful as she was. It's just part of the charm....it would be "all too real" if the roles were reversed. Real and....sad honestly.

>>670959How so? Is it more common for a man to be considered "eccentric"?

You're welcome.
And in a way, men have a much longer history of being (acceptably) eccentric. Women haven't had the luxury of being main characters before several decades ago (with a few exceptions). So we've never before been important enough to merit the amount of description that a truly unusual, never-before-seen character would require.
>> Anonymous
>>670974
Actually in shoujo manga "a handsome guy who is being overbearing and as forceful as she was" is pretty much the standard, unfortunately.
Now Kyon, on the other hand, would have been equally unusual and interesting as a female shoujo manga protagonist and as a male shounen novel protagonist. (And Haruhi, too, is only marginally less boring as a girl as she would have been as a guy.)

>cuneiform

Cuneiform (from the Latin word for "wedge-shaped")

Huh?

Are you saying it would be better if Kyon was female and Haruhi was male or vice-versa?
>> Anonymous
>>671007
>Cuneiform (from the Latin word for "wedge-shaped")
Cuneiform is the written language of ancient Iraq/Iranians since before the total rise of Egypt. In their time the Euphrates and Trigas were a lot more lush then they are right now.

Even still I have no idea why an ancient written language applies to Haruhi and Kyon.
>> Anonymous
>>671051
What I mean is, it's so established, cuneiform as in "as a mold, refined and cliche" I guess you could put it. I might have the definition wrong, but I remember seeing cuneiform defined like that. It's something that's accepted and well known, already played out. Like the millionth mold made in a factory.

Are you all oblivious to the magic that makes Kyon? He's the only NORMAL character in any anime/manga, at least from what I've seen. He's too normal, that's what makes him "special" and why he's "unique" in the anime/manga universe. He's not uber dorky, or eccentric, or wild and obnoxious like every other damn anime/manga character.
>> Anonymous
>>671070
Basically I agree, but aside from being refreshingly normal, Kyon's also reasonably hot, smart and nice. And that's pretty goddamn attractive.

Yeah, Kyons a pretty well rounded character. He's one of the many reasons I love the Anime, that and the awesome plot.
