Goku Luffy Naruto Tanjiro I think due to how it exploded in sales that Demon Slayer earned its spot. It's still behind the all time sales of Slam Dunk and Kochikame, but the speed at which it did was so impressive. If it was my personal list though I would put JoJo on over that, although its explosion of popularity in the West was after it was no longer in Shonen Jump and instead in Ultra Jump. --- https://imgtc.com/i/iJnhdkc.gif https://imgtc.com/i/j45EVGx.png ...

Though this actually does also raise another argument in favour of Ichigo as hes very influential on future popular series, JJK most notably. --- I just decided to change this sig.

I wanna say that Ichigo absolutely does not deserve to be here. He's mostly influenced by Yusuke Urameshi from Yu Yu Hakusho, who's had a similar influence on other SJ protagonists. Bleach isn't nearly as popular as a lot of these other series. For classics, I think Kenshiro and Jotaro belong here more, along with Sakuragi from Slam Dunk, though I get that most people wouldn't know him. I'd probably take Tanjiro over Ichigo too, honestly. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well I would definitely disagree with that and say Ichigo should be on there. For starters series popularity doesnt really matter at all, this is about the characters. If it was series sure, Bleach doesnt make it and Demon Slayer would be a lock. Even Naruto would probably not make that. However this is only about protagonists and Ichigo has been both an extremely iconic protagonist in a way others in more popular series arent, and influential one despite of course having prior influences. Although, just quickly on popularity Bleach came back and revived its popularity a lot to the point where Id say that gap doesnt matter for this. Especially considering how popular it is and still is in the west. While it is true that Ichigo was influenced by Yusuke, every shonen protagonist has obvious influences. Naruto is much more dependent on Goku and Luffy for instance. What Ichigo does that Luffy also dies is channel those influences in a way that has a further influence later on. There is no Yuji without Ichigo for instance. Honestly, if any of those four is the weak link, I think it might actually be Naruto. Set aside the popularity of the series and the fact that hes synonymous with it. What does the character actually add? --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ...
