It's like "He's really forgotten everything. Lets really just take four episodes to emphasize that this is the big one. EVERYTHING. It's all gone. It's very sad, we promise he's forgotten everything, this is the climax of the entire anime, and we assure you that he's forgotten every-OH HE SEES A MIRROR WELP THERE HES NO LONGER FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING THATS IT GOODNIGHT FOLKS, YOU'VE BEEN GREAT, THATS IT THATS ALL, WOOP + Show Spoiler + But it was the perfect setup for BanrixLinda T_T | ||

KLK isn't my thing, I hate comedy/really gaggy ecchi manga, meh. Bleach was good for Soul Society and maybe the Arrancar arcs, but now it's just fucking dumb, "herp derp, we spent the entire story thus far saying the Quincy's were all dead, now there's like 500 of them and they want to rule the entire world. Naruto...is trying way too hard to be Dragonball for it's own good, it's just so stupid now and needs to end, quickly, but knowing how the Mangaka has been working so far, it'll be another ~70 chapters....One Piece is the saving grace of the "Big Three" it takes itself seriously when it needs too, but there's always a clear goal in every arc, it's refreshing. Fairy Tail is also OK, I like it more than Bleach and Naruto now, but I hated it when I first tried to read it. Rurouni Kenshin is amazing, I have the 3 volume book set right behind me, one of my favorite manga's, and it's way darker than the anime, seeing Seito rip someone in half with his sword when he throws it is awesome. YuYu Hakushou is amazing, I'm going to read that again once I finish Hunter x Hunter, and then maybe move onto Psyren again, or Prince of Tennis. Maybe Eyeshield 21, but I've never been into sports manga aside from PoT or Hikaru no Go. Fuck politics, thieves stealing from thieves and the honest/mostly honest. | ||

Everyone wants to be me~ There, back to anime. On April 04 2014 13:05 WaveofShadow wrote: Guilty pleasure, even for me. The creator's story is air-fucking-tight, and it's been going for over a decade. He's set stuff in motion and created seeds for things that didn't show up for years and years. Kid's stuff, obviously, but genuinely fun and good quality. It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye. I remember getting pissed at how idealistic the manga was a few years ago (and I refuse to look up how many years exactly because I already feel old enough as is, fuck), with stuff like everyone magically surviving in the Skypiea arc, etc. and then you get stuff like Sabo and the landfill, the dragon's caste system, and the whole merfolk arc (especially the goddamn flashback). It's like watching Adventure Time thinking it's a kid's show, "What do they mean, Mushroom Wa- OH SHIT", 'cept worse. Oda manages to put so much in his stories underneath the "crackin' jokes" exterior.

Awesome movie, good time and all that, but damn if everyone in that thread hated it like the plague. GODDAMMIT THAT SCREEN TIME FOR CHERNO ALPHA AND CRIMSON TYPHOON What a waste. T_T Cherno Alpha's deployment shot was so visually great. On April 04 2014 12:49 Requizen wrote: To your edit: Naruto started in '97. Dragon Ball, Jojo's Bizzare Adventure, and Fist of the North Star predate it by more than a decade, and things like Yu Yu Hakusho and Rurouni Kenshin also are older. And those aren't even the oldest, just some that most people recognize as being "classic" shounen. Naruto and Bleach are just the current worst offenders of "hey, let's make cookie cutter shounen and still make bank". Not all current shounen sucks, but it's probably one of the worst periods in recent history for the genre. Jojo still winning from fabulousness alone, if not the wtf factor ("NAZI SCIENCE§§§" wat). I'll get around to reading Part 7 once I've caught up with Kingdom (~100 chapters) and finished KS (Hanako route sitting in a corner for months), I hope it's going to rekindle my love of the series after a pretty meh part 6. The start was decent and there were good callbacks to part 3 and the start of part 5, especially the whole "caring about hiding one's identity as a stand user", but the second half plunged fast, with some highs like Bohemian Rhapsody (oh wtf that stand) and Underworld, and the end was... what? Generally the most disappointing part is how arcs (and the final fight) end, part 5 especially made no sense for the fight and seemed like a deus ex machina, part 6 is... what. Not really sure what happened. Left me a bit sour. Here's to hope part 7 goes better! | ||
