True and is worst post time skip but they have character and Oda is trying harder than it's competitors but i would rather not bring the discussion here the OP board is tired of it.

HxH has pretty good female characters.
Palm's a Jojo expy, anyway.
The Romans and medieval Europeans mostly used abacuses to do any complex math. Or they just stuck to geometry.
I'd say World Trigger is the big shonen series with the best girls.
Shout out to Promised Neverland for actually having a female protagonist.

My Hero Academia relies on body language a lot (in the manga), so you can consciously/unconsciously infer a lot about characters just from looking at them.
So pretty much any new character, girl or boy, becomes popular as soon as they're introduced, lol.
Still waiting on The Promised Neverland to see whether it manages not to fall apart, but I really like that it has a female protagonist.

Yup. One of the few Jump series good about that.
Should read World Trigger sometime, seems like a fun series.

Actually, she's based on a character in Jojo that Araki created to make fun of anime stereotypes. (Togashi and Araki are friends in real life.)
So you're sort of right.
He likely did.
heh that explains alot of them being friends
also Yukako is always ironic in that case
Certainly did more with it's women than Naruto, Bleach or FT ever could.
Can't speak to My Hero.
I didn't know Oda was a Rob Lifeld fan.
Hoo. Oda's not yet that bad, thankfully.

Oda has been improving SLIGHTLY with his girls over time. In the recent arcs. For a while no characters were getting fights at all who weren't part of the big trio.
Now he has introduced Carrot, Nami and Luffy paired up to take down a foe, Big Mom, etc. Although he still needs to work on his designs at least he is getting better about rotating his characters to give them attention.
HxH and MHA easily have best girls. MHA especially but I don't want to spoil it if it indeed comes to Toonami.

They are more diverse in their design recently thanks to the BM pirates and such
Yeah, Oda's been improving a lot in the latest arc. Hope he keeps it up,
MHA's been great with writing the female characters. If it keeps it up, it'll be the best Jump series since Hunter x Hunter and Stone Ocean at doing it right.
It's weird when Oda makes the male characters so wacky by comparison.
though he's already done some eye-rolling things.

Even the latest arc is pretty unvaried with the female character designs, though.

what is that?
Though it's probably because they don't have to appeal to horny teenagers (or young adults)

As a rule, seinen series tend to be way better than shounen series. They can cover niche things and worry less about mass appeal. That goes triple when you bring anime into it.
It's like how books are usually better and cleverer than movies or tv shows.

Gekiga were the first manga from the 70s and 80s aimed at adults instead of children, the predecessors of seinen/josei. They're kind of like the equivalent of the first graphic novels in English comics.
Graphic novels, manga targeted to adults. (I had to google it as well)
Even then it seems to be a relatively new term (to me). MetatronM will probably correct me.
Edit: cntr has me covered!
*tips fedora*
ugh, I only read graphic novels/Gekiga not that kiddy books/manga, you philistines
Every Fairy Tail arc.
These bad wizards are so unbelievably tough! They killed all these people just as strong or much stronger than us! They nearly killed all of us in fair, individual fights!
Outfit change, New opening.
Wait, we're all friends/members of Fairy Tail! We're going to rematch them in fair/unfair team up fights and win! Natsu will beat the big bad by eating his magic or some nonsense! Friendship! Don't mess with my friends!

I'M ALL FIRED UP
DON'T MESS WITH FAIRY TAIL
IMPOSSIBLE IS THIS THE POWER OF FAIRY TAIL
and Erza getting completely trashed then wins because she's Erza (i really want to like Erza she is the character i would love but damn FT)
FT is on the whole better than both Naruto and Bleach as an anime because of it's unfaltering commitment to consistency. It never even comes close to the highest highs of either nor does it hit the basement of endless filler and poor animation. I'm not even always sure a filler arc is canon or not because it is all the same. The animation is remarkably consistent with the only real noticeable shift coming when they rebooted it. The music is great. The dub is great.
Yup.
I like watching the it becuase it's so bad it's good and the music and dub is great it's good background noise. It's perfect animu just too much loli but that's animu so ...
Don't hate the queen.
She deserved better, man.
What if it has really low lows

Finally completed Parasyte today. Pretty good series overall, but I felt like it had some focus issues as if the plot couldn't decide who the main antagonist and endgame would be.
The Sentai Dub wasn't bad. Like, I thought the guy they picked to play Shinichi was a miscast, but compared to Akame Ga Kill it was definitely passable.

Also FMA has the best female characters, but that's not really surprising since it's written by a woman.

How is everybody's Memorial Day going?
I saw five ATVs zooming down the street today. I hate them.
ATVs are the noisy abominations for people who don't want to ride motorcycles and don't want to ride a car.

I think Oda just writes all characters as male and turns a few of them into women visually to vary things up a bit. They aren't even bad characters but often it rarely feels like I'm reading about a woman aside from the big old boobs or what not giving an obvious sign.
Edit: This comment is a lot dumber than I thought it sounded. Apologies.

Which characters don't "feel like they're written like women"?
I've never had that problem with any female OP character.
If you mean stuff like weird quirks and gimmicks, that's par the course with 90% of the cast.

Been alright. Saw the United States Army Band for free. That was pretty fun.
