  1. Shounen Kagurabachi by Takeru Hokazono

    The manga's protagonist has all the character and charisma of melba toast soaked in slightly soured skim milk. Literally every character in the entire production is more interesting than him. At this point, his dad and uncle are the main characters and he's just a lacklustre sequel.
  2. Shounen Bleach by Tite Kubo

    My favorite thing about the Quincy 3rd Reich arc is that Tite Kubo kept trying to make Ishida Uryuu interesting and compelling as a character. And failed - miserably.
  3. Chapter Berserk Chapters 384-385 Spoilers & Discussion

    GTFO with that LLM Chatbot written analysis.
  4. Chapter Berserk Chapters 384-385 Spoilers & Discussion

    It's more like "Guts exists as Griffith's opposite number". The contrasting elements have always been there: -Griffith is a finesse fighter, Guts was a two handed heavy hitter -Griffith was androgynous and pretty, Guts was muscular and rugged. -Griffith had an ambition to which he was bound...
  5. Chapter Berserk Chapters 384-385 Spoilers & Discussion

    The artist isn't succeeding as far as I'm concerned, but I believe they're trying to convey that Guts' presence commands the same sort of awe that the reincarnated Griffith did.
  6. Chapter Berserk Chapters 384-385 Spoilers & Discussion

    Oh hey look, Guts is doing Parts Work from Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy. Hey guys, if you were hoping for an apocalyptic final showdown between Guys and Griffith, I hate to break it to you but this is a sign that might not be the path Berserk goes.
  7. Shounen Chainsaw Man by Tatsuki Fujimoto

    I'm disappointed Chainsawman never got a second arc. Just like how I wish Westworld got a second season. Or how I wish Game Thrones wasn't cancelled after Season 4. It's also really too bad that One-Punch Man was never renewed after Season 2 I was really looking forward to the Garou arc being...
  8. Shounen Chainsaw Man by Tatsuki Fujimoto

    Do we even have any confirmation that chainsaw man's getting a 3rd act? //this act has been absolute trash incidentally.
  9. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    I love how Mahoraga gets Worfed in every appearance he makes.
  10. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    Massively rushed. Ugh. Disappointed again.
  11. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    There'd be no meaning to making black rope to give to Dabura if he was dead.
  12. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    So Yuji is going to truly be alone. Cursed spirits will continue to be born, even if the general population lacks cursed energy. We have precedent already: if a sorcerer dies violently and not by the hands of someone with cursed energy, they become a curse, and a higher level curse at that...
  13. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    JJK Modulo is now officially timeskip Yuji fanservice. So we've now seen him use: -piercing blood -black flash at-will -dismantle on the same scale as a regular domain expansion What else does he have left? Hmm... -cleave (is there a point?) -fuga ("open") -domain expansion -reversed curse...
  14. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    Right now he's just the plot device that stopped the war by non-fatally wounding everyone enough to incapacitate them. It's nice to see piercing blood raised to the "perforate an entire building in every direction" level. Domain expansions incoming, and considering the cast and their current...
  15. Discussion Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo by Gege Akutami and Yuji Iwasaki

    Yep - jjk's sequel didn't get the ratings so they're finishing it with a fanservice bang. $10 says even Yuji shows up at the end since he doesn't like people sacrificing themselves.
