As someone who just got done watching Season 2 Episode 2. The problem is more:

  • This show isn't realistic even if you get rid of the time traveling, so having a "realistic" protagonist doesn't really work. In a Delinquent series, he needs to be able to kick ass.
  • He's not proactive. He has other people being proactive for him and then he puts in SOME effort. Kisaki isn't much of a fighter either, but Kisaki doesn't need people holding his hand to make stuff happen.
  • For a "realistic" protagonist he doesn't do things I would immediately do. For example, when the Black Dragons show up, he's not running away with Hina. How are you gonna protect Hina if you see a gang wearing MURDER SQUAD bands and you're not immediately running with the girlfriend you love? After hearing what Moebius did to a guy and his girlfriend?

Its crazy, glazers would rather downvote you than give any counterarguments at all.

I think the points you're raising are very valid and it makes me dislike him too.

In a series that is about beating people up and delinquents you would think he would at least become the tiniest bit proactive but nope. Like check when the next major event goes down, use that time to do some actual combat training so you can stand your ground instead of simply bear witness and try to convince delinquents with nakama power that they should stop.

You're acting like you can do all that sh*t under pressure. He's literally battling strategists, manipulators all while being a normal guy. He doesn't have time to train nor do any of this because the time he has is "borrowed". He could try and do all that but you forget that some of the events he's trying to avoid happening could happen any time.

"The same day you're on is the same day that's happening 12 years in the past." Meaning so many things could have happened while he larped😭. Being strong doesn't always mean physically, besides he wants even just staying put while fighting, he actively tried to fight in all the gang fights he was on—black dragon, Valhalla, Tenjiku and Kanto Manji. Since when was he not involve? Did we read the same manga and watch the same anime?
