Kouko is by far the worst. Banri was fine when he told her off, but just now he feels more like her servant than boyfriend. Needs to get his balls back.

Well he is a main character so with out him and his type of personality I don't think the series would flow entirely the way it is now and would be a completely different Anime all together. . I actually don't mind his character and his voice actor suits him.

1. When you mentioned how he snapped at Linda and Koka, it's understandable as to why he snapped at them. I mean Linda was avoiding the fact of bring up she knew him and when his memories got jogged and him vaguely remembering he thought that she might have not mentioned it because he wasn't the same person he use to be and it bothered him. Then as for Koka well she was basically ignoring his feelings and he liked her a lot so he was frustrated, though I do find it a bit stupid that he wouldn't be her friend just because she denied him hat was sort of stupid. . but he was again probably just frustrated because the girl he like keeps bring up her Ex-boyfriend.

Also I think he does have a bit of a split personality.. I think the real him is trying to reach out to Linda on occasion and bring out the old him because in one of the latest episodes his old self spirit said that he still loved Linda and wanted to be by her side forever if he could and mean while Banri is with Koka.

Then as for his flash back he was meant to seem the way he was a cry baby and needy that's what they were trying to make him out to be...

not only all of that he said his current self didn't want to disappear in the episode the episode he ended up in that religious occult. However because of Linda poping up and him finding out he once had feelings for her he's probably confused and unsure and as I said before some of his old real self is probably trying to reach out to her.

I feel like I'm repeating what the others have said, but the main problem here is actually the execution of the anime version.

I started reading the manga version way before the anime started airing and I couldn't avoid noticing that they skipped lots of character development, therefore making Banri's actions seem too selfish and childish. The confession scene was totally ruined too.
So far, only 19 chapters have been translated to english. All of them have more than 30 pages. The anime has covered them all in 6 episodes.

He's fine in my books. I sort of understand why he thinks this way after all that's happened to him. At least he's not a douchebag and tries to work things out. For me, as long as the protagonist has the ability to make proper decisions most of the time, he's good enough. I mean, having a godlike perfect protagonist might make it hard to relate for people.

No he is not ruining this anime for me. In fact, he's the reason I'm still watching this anime. If anyone is ruining this anime it's Koko.

No! Koko is annoying as hell, but I'm still hoping Banri will end up with Linda as plot twist.
Bu if he still end up with Koko, then I just rate this show with low score.

From your text it sounds like you totally misunderstood the last scene.
That was the real "ghost" Tada Banri coming out for a second.

And personally to me, I don't dislike him, I ... like him I guess. But I'm mostly interested in his relationship with Linda because I ship them. As for Koko I don't accept their relationship.

I love his character with the fact that he has amnesia.
And I'm gonna throw it out there that 'maybe' your dislike of the voice actor is blinding you from Tada as a character.
What I mean by that is your dislike for the voice actor is blinding your possible-like of Tada Banri as a character.

I like new Banri better than past Banri. But I'm hoping they show us more flashbacks of past Banri's redeeming qualities like they did with the latest episode when he was supporting Linda.

He's plain and boring. But I honestly don't think he ruins the show. His ghost and the overall story entertains me enough to keep going.

Tada Banri is not bad. The LN and manga show more of his funnier side, while the anime skipped like 50-75% of it. They also skipped a couple of scenes of just Banri and the boys, and opted to go for the drama between the girls more.

If looking at the Anime only. He pretty plain-ish with a small creepy(but very funny) part of Araragi.
His actions are kinda understandable since he does has amnesia and i can relate to him on that personally.

Banri is a boring and uncharismatic character, I don't like him.
But no, he's definitely not ruining the show for me.

Now that Ghost Banri has taken over (or so it seems), I seriously hope he becomes more charismatic.

He's a lot better than most of the male protagonists in these types of anime, but that's not saying much. I don't particularly like him but at the same time I wouldn't say he's ruining the anime for me.

I like him. He's a bit awkward, but he's honest and knows what he wants. He can be funny at times too.

Though I don't like ghost/old Banri. He's whiny and annoying, reminds me too much of Onodera Ritsu from SIH.

I hate ghost banri, he need to realise to stop trying to mess up all of Amnesia Banri's accomplishments.

And he's WAY too fucking forgiving.

I didn't hate him when he was friendly and straightforward in the beginning, but his amnesia always got on my nerves a bit because it feels so soap opera P:
And by now I do hate him because he constantly runs away from his problems, even though his problems could usually be solved extremely easily by having an honest talk. (running away is now Kouko's role in episode 9-ish >>)

I dont see how he's running from his problems. He was pretty open with Koko about it.
And when he found out he used to know Linda, he didnt hesitate to confront her about It.
UNLESS, you count the time when he was about to jump off the bridge...that would be running from his problems.

What.. when he found out he knew Linda from before, he avoided her for days before he was finally *forced* into talking to her.
And he did the same thing in the past when he thought Linda was serious about disliking him. This one's a bit more understandable, but it was still running away.

I like how Banri broke out of the friendzone and wasn't a whiny little bitch or anything. If you want stuff done, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Also, from the looks of it, he looks a lot more dependable than his past self...

I thought he was fine until Episode 6, and I came to the forum to complain, but coincidentally someone else had started an exact forum in regards to his awful Yes/No-Episode-6 personality. Lol. It irritates me that no one feels the same as me when it comes to this kinda thing. Banri, in Episode 6 (where I'm at right now), can certainly be a selfish douche. I don't care if he has amnesia -- this drastic personality change seemed out of character and a bit sudden.
