    The thing about Batman since he has so many writers is that he goes in circles with his development. One day he’s trying to better himself as a person so he can protect his city and the people he cares about then another day he’s using the members of bat family as punching bags and doesn’t give a crap about his son.

    I would say the appeal is that with a human character, us as readers can more easily put ourselves in the character's shoes and experience what they do. Moments are more powerful when the character is believable and human.

      It’s funny how there are many human characters who aren’t even humans like mostly in shonen, it shows that being overly powerful doesn’t stop the character from being relatable (an example would be vegeta from dragon balls if u ask me)

    3 years ago, I read the seventh part of Jojo, Steel Ball Run. 3 years ago, I began valuing self improvement. After reading the story of Johnny Joestar, I saw so much of myself in his character, most of which were flaws that both he and I shared. I couldn’t believe how similar we were. And after I finished Steel Ball Run, I began to do some reflection. Thinking about ways I can improve my life, primarily by improving who I am as a person. Ever since then, I have always sought self improvement. When I believed I finally got over an issue of mine, I then thought “okay, what else can I improve on?” In 3 years, I have become a completely different person mentally. People from highschool who I’ve seen recently have quite literally told me “you’re nothing like you were in highschool.” (I graduated 4 years ago) And the best part is, I will always continue to grow. Humans can never be perfect, but that means they have infinite potential.

    One anime that crafts extremely realistically human characters that I wanna give a shoutout here is "Hibike! Euphonium". It is a slife of life - music - drama Anime from KyoAni that focuses on high school girls in band/orchestra, but more so than the actual band stuff, the focus heavily lies on its characters. EVERY single character gets an own arc, development, struggles they go through, making even ones that seem unlikeable at first turn out to be just another character with their own problems just as anyone else and through their development they get more likeable. The way they interact with other characters changing depending on who they interact with and how close they are, the forming bonds and relationships between the characters.
    Among these characters, the one that stands out the most is the protagonist Kumiko. She is, for me, the most relatable character in all of fiction and definitely my favorite anime character. She is a character that I can put myself into, not because she's this typical perfect anime self-insert character, no, but because I KNOW the things she goes through over the course of the story both in terms of her internal struggles in her mind, blurting her thoughts out out loud, making up scenarios in her head how to handle the situation she's in, and also her outer struggles with her practicing her instrument and trying to improve and how frustrating it is when it doesn't work how you want. Her passive role as more like an observer of the events that unfold in the story and how those influence her and how she influences the other characters are all so incredibly well wirtten and executed, you can't help but love her. The voice actress Tomoyo Kurosawa, who also does Phos' voice in Land of the Lustrous, also does a really great job at making her character seem more alive, like there are tons of videos of "Kumiko noises" here on youtube, just watch those and you know what I mean by that ^^
    I guess that's it then, just wanting to spread awareness of the show because of this topic, thanks for coming to my Ted-talk ^^

    what I love about this type of this character is that they fallow rules they made and try to make sense around them in the world they live in you feel like they live in a different planet but at the same time are connected to their current one stories most of the time feel like a stage play so perfectly set up so perfectly laid down so convenient but human characters feel improvised they feel not planned like how life is so unpredictable instead of having the plot or the world laid down you feel like they expose the world around them whether laughing loving or being hurt by it they represent the opposite of a stand in characters human characters can easily fit the term mirror characters how we see human characters also in my opinion depends heavily on how we se our selves as people they don’t represent power like super man or money and justice like Batman but they do provide connections understanding and little bit of hope and in times like these we all need some of stay safe people

    I think the appeal is that, they are us. We see ourselves in the human character that are the most human. We have the ability to thrive and become those human. They are us, but different. As Saitama has said "The fact we have powers. Just the reason we have the ability to change ourselves, is what makes us great"

    @The Masked Man idk if you'll read this, but
    another human character I really like is Casshan from Casshern Sins. Highly recommend that Anime btw. It's very good . Even though Casshan isn't human in the physical sense, he's very human on the emotions he displays through his actions. His feelings hit home for me, just as Thorfinn from Vinland Saga's feelings hit home for me.

    Although he is not in the same media that Masked covers, one of the best and most appealing characters is Tony Soprano (The Sopranos). He is one of the most flawed, cruel human beings that is also a loving and caring father and man and the same time. And the thing that makes him so likable is that we see ourselves in him.
