You guys convinced me. I really don't give a damn to The Promised Neverland characters and just the plot matters so it is the perfect example. XD
Say for yourself, I think the characters in Death Note are very interesting to say the least.
Yeah like everyone's favorite character Misa. Don't forget two characters who's only defying trait is that they're two halves of the same character.
Because of Misa you are putting everybody in the same package? And how dare you talk bad about Misa-chan? XD
Urasawa is really good character writer is all I mean he started his career doing character centric stories like Yawara and Master Keaton before jumping into mystery thrillers like Monster and 20th Century Boys he just never lost his touch in writing characters ontop of giving us great stories (despite shitty endings). I don't think Neverland's characterization is that poor but the author is already making the same mistake as other "mystery box" manga where the mystery surrounding the story take center stage over the cast and this wouldn't be a problem with just a handful of characters yet Neverland just added a slew of expendables while leaving other half on the bus. The problem with Death Note's characterization is that none of the core cast are memorable (save L but that's because he's quirky for the sake of quirky) and they usually exist to be idiots to make Light look cool or to represent an ideal and Light himself stops being interesting when he loses any traces of gray morality after killing Naomi. The manga is a trashy cat and mouse thriller but when you try to think of it as anything but it falls apart.
Oh no its not that. Misa's awfulness stands out more than anything else in the entire cast is all.
You're proving my point man.

I'd love it if this were real, a 3 series serialization round sounds exciting. Or is one of them a one shot? Any info on the author from No. 14?
The author for No. 14 is Daiki Ihara, who did Yukimi Daifuku from Jump+, No. 15 is a new author and No. 16 author is Kishimoto.
Because that’s probably the thing they allow to show nowadays lol.
You say a series have interesting characters yet you can't remember them?
No 14 also made one of OP one shots I think, looks like he's more of a gag or comedy author.
I kinda like the fact that they seem to be giving this a darker tone. If they went with some of the comic elements as in the original, it wouldn't translate well.
Not him, his brother.
90s and 00s have their fair share of fanservice (for straight men) though. Contemporary anime/manga may seem to be using much more fanservice because 1. There are much more anime being produced in total 2. More are being exported outside of Japan.
岸本斉史 is Masashi Kishimoto. Or you mean that his brother was the one who went to a monthly publication?
