Do you prefer a strong or a "weak" MC?

[Moonblink]

In Otome and visual novels do you prefer if the MC is strong and independent and doesn't need any help or protection from the LIs or do you prefer the "weak" or gentle character that always need protection and help and can't deal with things alone?

For me i actually like a mix of both, a MC that is strong and can get shit done but also at times receives help and protection even though the LIs know perfectly well that she can deal with the situation.

So just wanted to see the opinions of the people here and how people prefer the MC to be.

Strong MC all the way! (〃▽〃) Watching a confident lead who doesn't just wait around to be saved makes the dynamic so much more exciting !!!
