I think the title says it all, but just in case, here's a little explanation. In
many anime series there's at least one character without a reason to be there,
that doesn't get any development and doesn't or barely has any relation with the
other characters and the storyline. Some of them are funny and therefore
tolerated, but most of the time they're just filler in the cast list. Now, my
question is: which one of this characters do you think should've never left the
writers' notebooks? It can be any character from any anime. Go ahead and say
what you think!
I think that the monkeys of Getbackers would have to be one of the worst filler
characters.
They have reason to be there and Getbackers is better off without those monkey
filler episodes. They could've been funny but they weren't to me. Monkeys
beating up the two most powerful characters in a certain anime anyone? Women
beating them up would make much more sense.
Their names are as forgettable as their roles in the series. They did nothing
more than ruin Dryden's wedding and show everyone's soft sides. Theys should've
given more depth into those two (the flashbacks weren't enough!). Plus how
"intensified luck" fitted into the series is really odd. Could've
chosen a better name, IMO.
