I mean something more realistic. Exaggerated faces & comedy is inevitable for any series from Shimabu. It's his specialty lol
The problem is that these examination introduction arcs are always the exact same. The hero flunks the first part but then he aces some sort of practical test. Looking at the last page makes it obvious what it's going to happen because the same thing always happens.
The MHA template is the context of the main character and his situation.
As rocomotion says, the series sets a literal exact same situation that we saw in MHA's Chapter 3 in the manga. Whether the same events happen or not, that's up to the author, but the whole scenario is a carboncopy: a selection in which the MC gets poor results, and now a test in which they have to fight against huge bad kaijuus and defeat them, like the physical exam Deku had in the UA entrance exam against those giant robots, while hinting the MC will have to use his powers to save the earlier presented girl. Anyway, we'll see what happens. Hoping this doesn't happen, would be kinda disappointing.
Dunno about fastest, but the Death Note one-shot was released in Jump #36/2003 on August 8th 2003, and then the Death Note series started in Jump #1/2004 on December 1st 2003. That seems pretty fast to me.
I think a lot of the discussion Gaming Girl has been getting also revolves around the fact that it's using actual video game characters and moves in the battles. Half the comments revolve around people asking if the author got Capcom's permission lol
Shit, now I wanna read this now. Using Hi Score Girl and Destroy All Humankind as references, I find that I enjoy manga that make accurate use of video games and their history.
Jump+ will slowly overtake Jump, with Anya leading the revolution. xD In all honesty, though, I feel like Jump is still a bit strict. it's good that they're expanding, but still.
Yeah, I got HeroAca vibes from the first chapter Also the main character turning into a Kaiju mysteriously fely very Attack on Titan to me. I feel as if not a lot of manga authors do tropes well, and if enough popular manga don't execute a trope properly, people will begin to hate the trope itself. Like how everyone always hates love triangles and people suddenly moving away in romance manga.
Clones/spiritual clones while they sound cool on the surface just wouldn't work.
still dont know why this kodansha series is still here, but anyway.
