I can't speak for the anime world, since I'm not well-versed in it and I don't know how similar or different it is from other types of series out there.

But considering a lot of series are full of nothing BUT conventionally attractive people to begin with, that kind of doesn't leave a lot of options or variety open for fans in terms of shipping. Even the plain characters in a lot of series are "Hollywood plain", or if they start off looking plain, they wind up sexy eventually. The series often wind up beating the fans to the punch in terms of shallowness!

All of that being said, however, I do agree with you that it is a shame that plain characters don't get as much love or attention.

Nah, Yamaguchi is pretty expressly meant to be seen as a plain character. He has issues with his freckles, he's not as talented as the rest of the team, he actually met Tsukishima and became his best friend because Tsukishima decided to take the high road in terms of bullying for once and called the guys making fun of Yamaguchi pathetic, even though it's kind of implied he meant Yamaguchi was too, and that Yamaguchi just kind of grows on him throughout the years.

Here is Tsukishima for comparison:

Once you compare Yamaguchi to the rest of the team it's definitely obvious he's supposed to be this series' version of a plain jane, and unfortunately I have seen a lot of people who claim they're "not into" shipping those two simply because they refuse to believe that Tsukishima could be with Yamaguchi, not because there's no chemistry or anything (honestly, I agree with secret!OP, they're always together), but because they just don't like the way Yamaguchi looks. It's a pretty clear case of yaoi dynamic bullshit going on. There is a reason why the other character (Kuroo) is a seme in like 99.9% of the fanworks featured for them. :/
