I didn't say it's any good. It's standard shounen though. None of this whiny protag waifu bullshit made for zoomers.

All I've heard about BlackClover is how screamy and awful the protagonist is.

One of the big things Demon Slayer has going for it is how reasonable the protag is. He's kind-hearted, but doesn't baulk at having to kick ass and kill people when necessary. It also has cool moments where it takes into account what condition his body is in. Like he's on a mission at one point while having part of his leg and some ribs broken so it limits the way he can move.

I liked it quite a bit. It's not just the animation.

I mean I don't mind tiddies but shows like this are useless to me. I like shows with plots and characters development

They're not highschoolers, though, they're members of the local Adventurers' Guild who decide selling porn reviews pays better than cutting monsters in half. A human, an elf, a fallen (literally) angel, a halfling, a wolfman and a handful supporting characters (though some are one-off).

It is a really old manga other manga series has copied over the years. If you watch it from S1 you'll see that.

Didn't know Jojo was that old. I knew the anime is relatively recent and assumed the manga was as well.

Yeah, I didn’t know it was that old either. Why did it take so long for an anime adaptation?

It had an OVA in 1993. (of fucking part 3 and only the last volumes) No idea why it didn't pick up outside Japan until later. Oh it also had videogames. The most famous one was the fighting game by the once Japanese company CAPCOM.

Yeah.

yo brap, how long have you been watching One Piece? and were you introduced to it by a friend, or just started watching it by yourself one day and you stuck with it?

curious because I only was introduced to anime really, since 2015. Before that, I used to hate in it, and even think those that watched it were sad, pathetic losers, I used to literally call and think of them as frail pussies lol. Couldn’t believe how wring I was, and I also couldn’t believe there was a world out there that’s far greater than even most of the films made in Hollywood and such. I never knew such depth in these kind of works could exist in something as simple as a cartoon made in Japan (usually)

One Piece though....dude. I’ve been obsessed with it for five years now

I started reading the manga before the 4kids dub even aired. I got an issue of Shonen Jump through the scholastic catalog (got other manga from there too. imagine if the people running that knew about the molester teacher in yugioh or all the shit in yyh) and reading one piece scared me cuz of the art style but I liked it. Usopp was very creepy to me as a 9 year old. Also I thought it was called Nep Ec and that's what I looked for when I went to buy it at Borders lmao. Then I watched the 4kids dub.

Boku no Pico is the best anime. Soundtrack on point. Animation bright and colorful. Characters well designed. Very good would recommend.

I just found out Kubo will be doing Burn The Witch as a series in shounen jump. If he's drawing / inking himself, he's earned some more of my respect. Unlike Masashi Kishimoto who's apparently just a story dude now.

Also, Burn The Witch is set in the Bleach universe with the main characters being Witches that work for a Western branch of Soul Society.

Just got off the Den Den Mushi with Kishimoto-dono and he says he is currently contemplating suicide because user O-N-E on neogaf DOT com said he has more respect for Kubo-sama.

Burn the heretic!!!

EDIT:
Whole lot to unpack here. I did not read your whole post just the quoted one. "Burn the heretic!!!" was completely coincidental. Sandyman Sandyman triggered me pretty hard. He is a world class troll or an alt. I bet the latter.

Don't hate on me if I don't like your favorite shonen you shonen. The ridiculous amounts of characters it introduces and it's never ending story that makes a forever manga is tiring to even think about when the characters don't grab you or you stop having fun reading something. Or the superloud caricatures. The creator of OP is a relaxed cool dude. He admits to copying was influenced by Disney shit and (og) DB shit but in the end who cares when people like something enough to watch 6 billion episodes of anime friends get off your high horse coomer.

I don't think anybody here has said they liked Fairy Tale. Maybe they just like chick fights. I think that was the appeal to punching wizards.
