Another thing I don't understand about Japanese video games and I guess in anime as well is when your protagonist is a 14 year old silent effeminate male, who is also general of the entire armed forces for that side. I like the Final Fantasy series, but all the main characters are of that variety. I remember watching Gundam Wing in college and two teenage boys became the leaders of the country. I mean, give me a break. Thanks for the shout out guys.
