Good luck. My experience with character types is that they tend to get more stereotyped over time.

He might not have the same "I'm gonna be a hero!"-tick as Luka had, but otherwise, I bet his personality is the same. And if he has a companion, then I see only two options: She's either going to be the same tsundere type like Alice, or she's going to be a deredere fawning follower which the main character constantly tries to get away from.

I'm very, very jaded when it comes to such stories. I've seen far to many promising characters ruined by Japanese stereotypes to get my hopes up, and just take what I can get. That's why I'm fine with Luka being an idiot wannabe hero - apparently, the only character types available for male main characters in today's Japanese stories are "stupid wannabe hero learning to be a real hero" and "reluctant hero who accepts his fate".

(Though there is a recent trend of "hyper-competent, self-deprecating hero", and "pervert with a heart of gold" as MCs, but neither of these fits in MGQ's femdom setting.)
