Well, Weak Romance plot & a Herbivore MC is mainly due to that kind-off content being in high demand in Japan.
Japanese reader's/viewer's generally tend to prefer seeing Herbivore MC's, as most believe that being outgoing and open (especially sexually) isn't really socially acceptable.
That's why in Japanese series, you would see that MC's who are sexually unrestricted are those type who are hardheaded and more adult & playboy like, or characters with broken mentality.
Not to forget, that the target consumer of these Series are Japanese Teenager's and Otaku's who generally aren't in any relationship with someone of opposite gender until quite late in their life (mostly because it's generally forbidden to date during schooling years, and if someone is dating, they are socially considered as problem child).
