Is Legoshi entertaining or boring?

I’m going to assume this is up-to-date (episode 4) but I’m not really sure I can agree with you on the idea of Legoshi being a “boring” character. I completely agree on the fact that he is awkward as that has and is an established character trait of his. Season 1 essentially acted as Legoshi’s development in coming to terms with his own ferocity and animalistic tendencies, as well as in trying to become more confident around Haru - his eventual realisation of their relationship in episode 3 is evidence of this.

Despite coming to terms with the fact he is what he is, that being a wolf, he hasn’t completely come to terms with the fact that others would be entirely comfortable with it. So, although he’s putting himself out there for others, evidence of the fact he’s picking up the investigation - he’s still reserved around other animals as he still acknowledges that he is, above all, a feared carnivore and predator, and rightfully so.

His inability to decide whether or not he wants to accept himself around others as opposed to on his own is pretty compelling in my opinion for him as a character, and the revelations he comes to by himself in episode 4 is once more evidence of this (why exactly he decided to uncover Tem’s killer, and why exactly he can’t bear to stay at Cherryton even when Jack is visibly distraught by his recent behaviour. You complain about his awkwardness and Jack literally mentions it himself).

So, no I don’t think Legoshi is boring at all. I can however, as I said to begin with, agree on the fact that he’s awkward - even a little too much at times. It acts as good juxtaposition between his character and personality versus Louis’. Hope a second opinion helps you reflect.

What exactly is so boring about him? Apart from the stuttering thing, you mentioned.

Him morphing from an ordinary Kid into some sort of Yakuza slaying demon? (First Season)

Or is it him morphing into some kind of detective, trying to solve a murder mystery, encountering dangerous foes along the way, while trying to grow strong and to win the heart of his crush? (Second Season)

These are not boring things...
I can't relate...

I don't want him to be a Yakuza slaying demon because that part was really dumb IMHO, how the hell a panda and a wolf defeats a whole army of armed lions? that's my only complaint about season 1, I would have given that season a 9/10 but the yakuza rescue scene was extremely bad and lazy so I ended up giving season 1 a 8/10 because everything else was great in it.

I don't want him to be a detective either, just a change of personality is all I ask for. Apart from the stuterring I want him to have an interesting personality because his current personality is simply boring for me, he acts way too "beta" at times, a main character needs to keep me engaged or interested with an interesting script and he's obviously failing this part because he has the worst script compared to the rest of the characters IMHO so I want him to man up and act like an "alpha" or simply stop the stuterring and get to the point quickly in your converstations because sometimes he takes too long to finish a sentence and this is already bad for me, I don't need main characters like that, if people have fun with those type of main characters then good for them but not everyone is going to be happy with it.

You start loosing me there. I thought that was great.
But whether it was or it wasn't

He's not boring. And I think you're missing the point by calling him "beta"....cause that is what he chooses to be. As a strong, powerful carnivore, he chooses to hide himself and is only now starting to use that Power to protect people. He grows.

That is what makes him such a good character, for me.

The script is genius. It's not failing. It makes sense in the world Legosi lives in. You're complaint about his character is extremely flat. I think everything about Legosi was extremely well thought out.

I would argue, you just prefer more straight forward, confident characters, thats all. Nothing to do with him beeing boring, tho^^

I like this anime but I'm starting to find Legoshi boring, as a main character he's not doing much to keep me motivated nor entertained, the conversations with him are also awkward so he can't hold a proper conversation for too long because he starts stuttering, repeating the same thing over and over or takes forever to finish a freaking sentence. Legoshi is the most awkward character in the anime IMHO. He's a good guy no doubt but boring nonetheless.

What about you guys, do you find Legoshi entertaining or boring?

legoshi is not boring at all to me. his conflicting feelings on herbivores and awareness of social class makes him super interesting to watch. so many anime mcs are driven by crazy willpower that comes out of nowhere but legoshi is driven by his cognitive dissonance as a carnivore and his fetish or sympathy for herbivores.
