Alright, I had made this a 'best of 2010' thread, but then noticed, that there is a thread just like it on the second page. Sorry bout that! And thanks to anyone that answered anyways. I am going to do it a bit differently then- I am interested in an anime, where the protagonist is someone that you would expect to see in the background- maybe as a friend of the 'real' protagonist. I have found that I really really like the 'sidekicks', especialy in sort of school comedies and stuff.
It would also work, if it was a very large cast (I adore character-driven stories), with no really discernable main characters. Now I have seen lots (and I mean LOTS) of 2007 and earlier anime, so it would be nice to have something newer suggested.
Genre is not important, I would like to see humour, but not as the central reason for the show. Bonus points for character driven series.
Now what I mean by 'background' style character is, not someone that is 'the sort of perfect girl with some flaw' or 'the awkward guy that really likes a girl/wants to be the very best pokemon master/wants to be the strongest ninja//samurai//pirate//shinigami', but people like The Group Clown, The Loveable Pervert, The Delinquent, The Brainy Serious Guy, The Foreign Girl, The Clever Girl, The Group Mum, etcetera etcetera. In the end, I as always am on my continuing quest for the truly original protagonist. These are some of the character archetypes I really like, and I hope you catch my meaning, but if you can not think of anything like this, a character that you consider truly original would do great as well.
Edit: Edit: It would be great if someone told me how to change the title, if at all possible.
