What are you on about? Only half of the “general audiences” even watch anime and would even know who All might is.

Literally because they think he's sweeter and more human than Superman because they aren't familiar enough with the character to know this is what Superman is actually like as opposed to their perception of him. He's a Superman character with no preconceived notions from the audience so they don't judge him by their completely retarded cultural osmosis.

Not really. Its just weebs, haters and people butthurt at Supes for some reason. And let's face it, those guys have no idea who Superman is beyond a truly idiotic superficial level.

Most people don't really know who All Might is and that's a damn shame, because BNHA is good despite what the contrarian cunts on this place say.

I come to this board all the time, and I have no fucking idea who All Might is.

why, my peenus weanus of course :)

hahah! :D

it's my weeeeeenus peanus! :) hahah

Superman has been done to death and everyone ahs always known who he is. All Might is a fresh face.

A cardboard prop with no distinctive personality, who is just thrown into stories because his name makes money
Or
A slight semblance of a character

Superman isn't a character he's a brand.

because all might isn't all powerful and has a lot of weaknesses
Superman aside from the personality is nothing like him
Small things like that make characters more appealing

And yet all of AM's most popular moments among casual audiences are when he goes full Superman and annihilates his opponents.

Because they're special moments for him and not par for the course.

They legitimately aren't, the series makes a fucking point to show that when All Might arrives, everything is fucking fine because he'll find a way to save the day. And he always does. You are trying so hard to explain to yourself why you don't like Superman but enjoy LITERALLY the Superman of this setting even down to his personality.

>Superman isn't a character he's an icon.

He is Hope turned into a fist. He is the Save Me in the Edguy song that inspires you to do better.

And you are a faggot.

>He is Hope turned into a fist. He is the Save Me in the Edguy song that inspires you to do better.

REDDDDIT I LOVE REDDIT

He's a character you decided from the outset you didn't like, and began searching for reasons to explain your hatred.

All Might spends most of his time in his secret identity, which is more interesting than always being on.

You changed brand into icon. He's legit the same thing as Nike or McDonald's. They should change DC's name to superman and there would be no difference. Go be an amerilard somewhere else you fat fucking retard faggot nigger cunt. If you're too dumb to read what I said, you're too dumb to post on this board. Kys

who the fuck is all might? is he from one punch man?

Yeah, you are a faggot alright.

Neither of them got anything on Captain America

>You changed brand into icon.
It didn't took you very long to realize it. Good Job.

Your defense consisted of replaying inspiring sound lines rather than describing what actually makes him a good character. Pardon me for not being instantly won over.

>Your defense
Not me fucklestein. I'm

I don't think All Might is popular enough to compete with Superman.

Lol. That's not me, you autist.

superman isn't interesting...so I guess All Might wins by default.

So you’re defending someone else’s bad defense? That’s not much different.

1 Writer vs. 1000 Writers

>because he'll find a way to save the day
yeah through incredible struggle at his own permanent detriment, and as a mortal against himself and forces stronger than him like int he Nomu and AfO fights. With Supes there's an inherit detachment.

They usually have Kryptonite, which explicitly kills him, or are Doomsday who has killed him.

Oh bohoho.
All Might never died fighting an enemy. As far as I am concerned he isn't that much of a hero.

I'm not defending him, quit your tunnelvision faggotry. I'm responding to your stupid behavior. You want to say that Superman is a boring cliche when you haven't actually seen anything to do with the character, and this is obvious because you keep pointing to things about All Might that you say make him better, but are in fact elements the character borrows directly from Superman. Everything you say you like about AM is just fucking Superman, it's a contradiction.

>No retarded space politics
>Has a goal beyond keeping up his fake life forever
>Relies on strategy and outsmarting his foe
>Clear limit to his power
>CLEAR LIMIT TO HIS POWER
>CLEAR LIMIT TO HIS POWER

All Might is human.
All Might was never invincible.
All Might was never able to save everyone despite fighting harder than anyone to try.
All Might didn't hide his identity.
All Might wasn't a nationalist political statement wearing tights.

So he is literally Sentry?

Because Superman isn't even strong. He's a lanky little shit. He was created in the days before steroids so I imagine this was more impressive back then but now most body builders could snap him in two. Even I'm not that far from Superman, but looking like Superman isn't anything to strive for.

Meanwhile All Might is this fucking mountain of muscle. Like if the Hulk wasn't retarded. It's far more awe-inspiring.

>they dont know who Superman is
Who is Superman really? And I mean really, after so many writers have taken Clark out, bent him over, and pumped him full of their "vision" for the character, what can we really say is left of his character
And no, you wanking over All Star Elseworlds is not the real Clark

>Everything you say you like about AM is just fucking Superman, it's a contradiction.
This is only because Superman has existed so long and so played out that he's had no choice but to do everything.
if you compare him to AM which Superman are we talking about?
The one that shilled war bonds in WW2? the one that had a gay dog he put a matching cape on? or the Superman that demanded a blowjob?

Those are still rather alien in threat compared to All Might, who deals in the more immediate and scars as a person in real life would.
>As far as I am concerned he isn't that much of a hero.
Oh come on now, he devoted his whole life and every ounce of energy to the one-track goal of saving people.

> Can't even deny the fact you're a fat retard

Post your patreon so I can send you enough money to buy a rope or chain to hang yourself with. I'd suggest to use a bridge, because I doubt a wooden beam could support you.

>All Might is human.
Superhuman.
>All Might was never invincible.
Except for the entirety of his career until the day he beat AFO
>All Might was never able to save everyone despite fighting harder than anyone to try.
He did so extremely often, and in true crises Superman encounters this same problem
>All Might didn't hide his identity.
There's a fucking multi-arc subplot dedicated solely to him hiding his injury it's the exact same plot in a different context. Plus, nobody fucking knows who he was as a kid and his quirkless past.
>All Might wasn't a nationalist political statement wearing tights.
Superheroism is a fucking career in his world that he rejected, he began as a political statement within his own universe.

Jesus I don't even like BNHA very much please don't come in here shilling it when even I know more about it than you.

>All Might is human.
What does that have to do with anything?
>All Might was never invincible.
There's clearly a problem with his powerlevel if he needed to be crippled at his introduction to show some aribtarty limit to his power "I CAN ONLY USE MY POWERS FOR 1 HOUR" is not a good limit
>All Might was never able to save everyone despite fighting harder than anyone to try.
Same with Superman there's plenty of stories dealing with supes having to come to terms that he can't save everyone
>All Might didn't hide his identity.
Yes he did him having to hide his "true" form is literally that
>All Might wasn't a nationalist political statement wearing tights.
What does this even mean

Kinda seems like you don't know anything about supes

Why you gotta bully dogs like that?

>Who is Superman really?
A farmer, an immigrant and a fighter. He is basically Cincinnatus and St. Micheal.

One is new, the other one has been around longer than my grandma

>Oh come on now,
Hey, Superman died. All Might is still breathing.

Clark Kent is a guy from a small town that wants to do the right thing. At his core, that's fucking it. A thousand different writers have taken a thousand different approaches to that, but Clark is a guy from a humble start who saw he had the power to do incredible things, and chose to use that power for the benefit of others.

Look at this asshole, bragging about his grandma.

Well for starters, All Might hides his secret identity much better than putting on glasses, and then "What the?! Where did Superman go?!"

Krypto is a lil bitch

For comparison. Look at that. I wish I looked like All Might. When Superman approaches a villain with his malaria-ridden body and pencil neck you just roll your fucking eyes when he send the enemy flying.

All Might? He's like an atomic bomb on two legs.

Fixed. But everything else is on point.

Fucking illegal immigrants coming here and corrupting our good conservative republican women like Lois Lane

I'm not that guy you’re arguing with and i don’t particularly give a shit about All-Might either way. I’m just pointing out how every time Superman gets criticized, the defense is always some rephrased variation of the same statement about what an inhuman paragon he is, when that inevitably fails to convince people that he isn’t a boring character, it goes straight to “you just don’t get it”. Really for all their autism, even Batfags can do a better job of selling their favorite character.
Dying doesn’t make a character interesting, especially in Capes, where’s everyone’s “died” at least once.

The core of Superman has never changed, a man born with incredible power he uses to devote his life towards others.

dying is not a requirement for being a hero.

Because Superman is too flawless for his own good. He really isn't relatable. All Might is closer to the damaged hero type we can root to overcome his flaws.

My Hero Academia is a good story in two popular mediums (anime and manga) and is actively airing/being published, so people talk about it. Superman currently has no good stories in any popular mediums (and are any of the current Superman titles in the comics even any good?) , so no one talks about him, even though as a character he is much more well known than All Might ever will be. If DC didn't keep dropping the ball with Superman people would like the character more.

Superman is the kind of guy that says "shucks" when he's embarrassed, calls people he likes "son" or "hon", and refers to his enemies as "Mister" when he's scolding them. And it works, because it's just so disarming to see a titan that can topple buildings be overly polite and try not to say bad words that his mom wouldn't be proud of him saying. Superman isn't a dick with a heart of gold, or some kind of moralizing messiah. He's just a really nice fucking guy that wants to make your day better, whether that means opening the door for you or punching the daylights out of the robot trashing your town.

This, plus they have a consistent media to view him in. They are lazy and refuse to go out of their way to read different runs/or read at all

>Dying doesn’t make a character interesting
Dying is part of life. Is part of being human, of being mortal and vulnerable.

Death made Superman more human, made him understand fear in a way only a human who has lost someone can. It also reafirmed him as one fo the greatest of all capes to sacrifice in the name of those he love.

Always a pleasure when the fag board checks in

Reminder Steven Universe is a better Superman than Superman.

No, just for being an icon.

Elseworlds don't fucking count

There’s like 8 threads about the movie up right now

Literally just released a movie and is supposedly getting a new season.

Can any of you weebs name a single good All Might story? Or a single good All Might writer?

And no, "My Hero Academia" isn't good.

It’s not a comic thing, he doesn’t get solos, it’s all by one writer I think.

Does he show up in Vigilantes? If so, Vigilantes.

I dunno. I'm gonna need a pic of Superman in lingerie to compare.

So, you weebs seriously believe that the "My Hero Academia" writer is a better writer than all western writers that have worked on Superman?

What convinced you guys of this insanity? Is your reading experience limited to manga?

Why can’t All Might redeem people like they do?

>Death made Superman more human, made him understand fear in a way only a human who has lost someone can. It also reafirmed him as one fo the greatest of all capes to sacrifice in the name of those he love.
No it didnt, Superman dying was a blatant cash grab capitalizing on peoples childhood memories by pretending that this death would actually mean something to trick people that don't buy comics into buying some comics
Pretending that the death of Superman was in anyway good or even inspirational is asinine and makes me think you were born in this century

Oh, I’m not into MHA that much, I was just pointing that out. I think that’s how Manga works?

Most of the general audiences don't know who Almight is.

>No it didnt,
Yes it did. I bet you are terrified of dead. I bet you run away from it. I bet you wouldn't take a bullet for another human being, because you are terrified of dead.

People who think All Might is better basically have a very casual knowledge of Superman/a vague generic idea of bland nice Superhero who saves the day no contest. All Might meanwhile has a singular story so they have a much clearer picture of All Might, his flaws, his conflict, his relationships, etc.

>No it didnt, Superman dying was a blatant cash grab capitalizing on peoples childhood memories
And "My Hero Academia" isn't a cash grab capitalizing on the popularity of super-heroes? You think that "My Hero Academia" is some sort of literary art done for the sake or artistic value?

Could Superman have redeemed Spinel?

>Weebs actually feel smarter for reading "My Hero Academia"

Simple, when or if All Might/Toshinori dies; we know he won't come back. Superman dies again? No big deal, he'll most likely be revived, from a different universe, or some bs reveals how he's still alive.
Don't get me wrong, I still love Superman (I'm just tired of characters in any media coming back from the dead). This crap is the reason why I don't like Goku much.

You never know, revival isn’t comics exclusive, look at DBZ.

>You don't understaaaand Superman is so coooool all you have to do is read 9,517 different comic books and then maybe you'll learn to appreciate him a little

If Superman was a good character, shouldn't people love him without first having to do all that shit?

Boku no Pico has already revived characters and even reversed time. You're giving it too much credit. I quit reading after that last part so I don't know if they've done worse since.

So, what makes All Might better written than all Superman stories is that All Might may or may not die one day, and if it happens, he probably won't come back?

This is rich. The way weeaboos approach fiction is so unique.

>terrified of dead.
Go home ESL, and besides that every normal person has fears but acting in spite of that fear is also very human, so a person afraid of dying that would still risk his life to save another is far more humanizing than someone with no fear
>w-whataboutism
I think MHA is just an action series written for kids that a lot of people are using to make money, calling the Death of Superman out for the schlock it is was in no way a defense of MHA and you're a retard for thinking so

>If All Might was a good character, shouldn't people love him without first having to do all that shit?

Your point is moot. Everyone knows how capeshit works.

>and besides that every normal person has fears but acting in spite of that fear is also very human, so a person afraid of dying that would still risk his life to save another is far more humanizing than someone with no fear

You sure about that? The way you weebs come here daily to start threads about how "All Might is better written than all Superman stories" or "My Hero Academia is better written than all comic books", it really made me believe that "My Hero Academia" was something more, like the Pietà of japanese literature.

Why are you weebs so eager to praise trash, then?

Body builders are not strong. That is for show. Real Strongmen look like the mountain. They do not have abs or rippling musles they are just pure muscle.

Superman also knows saving everyone is impossible. A lot of adaptations and the main series goes into that. Usually involving Pa Kent.

>my point
That wasn't your point at all, you made a ridiculous statement, got btfo, and are trying to act like you actually said something worthwhile with your shit head rambling in a language you don't even understand, fuck off

>Has already revived characters and even reversed time
Not really no.
The only "revived" characters were within moments of being gibbed by the guy who did it who expressly has the power to rebuild/reshape things he destroyed.
Time reversed was just physical effects.
Good bait though.

People don't read comics and modern movies have failed to show what makes Superman Superman, thy show the Super, but always forget the man.

I know (I gave up on Dragon Ball years ago). Revival once or twice is ok, but often that it becomes the norm is frustrating (I want things to be at stake).

>That wasn't your point at all,
>Death made Superman more human, made him understand fear in a way only a human who has lost someone can.
Lel. Weeb.

>you weeba
Nice projection there, do you also play movies? All your impotent whining and baseless claims aren't going to get me in a "gotcha" moment and won't make you feel any better

People do love All Might before the first episode is over. My point is solid.

If they can do that, they can find some creep with revival powers later. Don't pretend the stakes are higher.

I can't tell if you're serious or not, but Boku no Pico is porn.

>All Might knows he has limits, knows saving everyone is impossible, and still tries to help people and says what he wanted to be was a pillar of hope people could rely on even after passing his powers on
Superman got a hundred stories like this when the "My Hero Academia" writer was still a child watching Dragon Ball, or when you weeabos were still jerking off to Tenchi Muyo.

Is this the Pietà of Japanese literature? Aping old Superman plot-lines and characterization?

Because he has a weakness. He's not superman.

Actually they pretty firmly took that character's ability out of the story when they destroyed both his arms and possibly killed him...it's not clear.

>People do love All Might before the first episode is over.
Same thing can be said about Superman comics. They sell because people love Superman before they open the book. Love for a character causes the consumption of the product.

Your arguments are bad and dumb because absolutely everything you say about Toshinori can be said of Clark.

Kryptonite and Red Sun Radiation.

Yeah and Superman also has stories where he has no limits, moves planets, and comes back from the dead, it all goes back to a point someone made early about what Superman really is at the core after being diluted by so many writers

Of course! We all fear death unless you suicidal or protecting someone!
And more importantly, he lost his parents in his adulthood. You can't miss what you never had and you can tell he miss them greatly.

He had a kid, married his girl. He is all around more human than Toshi.

I'm posting in a thread where the premise is that general audiences find All Might more interesting than Superman. I don't know where you think you are.

How many times has he been shown to just power through those with some handwave like "he had yellow sun radiation stored in his body and that has to run out before the red sun affects him" or "his will was to strong and he overcame the kryptonite"

Modern audiences don't know a good superman.

You aren't making a point, you think you are but you aren't in the context of the conversation and everything said before
You're rambling now desperately saying nothing really, fuck off goldfish brain

>People do love All Might before the first episode is over
People loved Superman before "Action Comics #1" was over, before Donner's "Superman" was over, before the first episode of "Superman: TAS" was over, before the first episode of "Smallville" was over, before the first episode of "Lois & Clark" was over, and so on.

People loved Superman so much that it sparked the whole super-hero thing that "My Hero Academia" capitalizes on. It's 80 years of consequence on his back.

What the love for All Might will amount to? 10 years from now, "My Hero Academia" will be taken as seriously as "Toriko" is right now.

Yea Forums and it seems pretty obvious i'm winning.

I get it! Its too hard for you to understand empathy!

But come on! You can do it! You can get it! Try harder!

says who?

Weebs, Kuro, Salt the programmer, that guy who just watched his first anime last week.

Because All Might hasn't been around for almost a century.
When the average person thinks of a superhero, they think of a guy with a cape, flight, super-strength and an unshakeable sense of justice. Why? Superman, of course. He is the stereotypical superhero. Unfortunately, this makes him staler than bread from King Tut's tomb.
All Might, on the other hand, while embodying many of the same traits and ideals, is new and distinct enough from Supes that he escapes from the staleness most people view our beloved kryptonian with.

No, you're just rewriting the premise to suit your argument and wasting of my time. Can you prove Superman garners more likeability than All Might? I don't think so, so shut up about that.

I didn't.

Looks like your point is fucked.

Excellent. The more, the merrier.

Weeaboos have this bizarre look at literature, where the weaker the protagonist is, the more well-written the story will be. It doesn't even make sense within themselves, seeing how much they worship Dragon Ball and One-Punch Man, but they hold this belief anyway.

Let me tell you a secret: there are stories like All-Star Superman in which Superman is far more powerful than All Might will ever be, AND far more better-written than All Might will ever be as well. Make yourself a favor and branch out. Read something that isn't manga, for once.

I never said he was better than all Superman stories (you made that assumption on your own), though I do like some of the ones where he's an jerk. All Might DEFINITELY has problems (he hides important info, doesn't listen to others advice until it's too late, etc).

>When the average person thinks of a superhero, they think of a guy with a cape, flight, super-strength and an unshakeable sense of justice. Why? Superman, of course.
When the average person thinks of a superhero they think of Ironman

Fuck man. You are mad.
But there is truth to what was posted.
Superman is truly more human than All Might in ways that he just doesn't express.

>I didn't.
I didn't love All Might after watching the first episode of "MHA" either.

Looks like your point is fucked.

80 years from now, what do you think people will think of All Might? Do you think people will think of All Might at all? You think they will know who the fuck he is, weebmaster?

I think of Thor or Superman. Someone in a cape.

Exaggerated personality and clear limits and vulnerabilities

Why do people shit on this moment as if Superman pulled it out of his ass, when it was the climax of an entire arc and involved deliberate setup by Batman to gives Supes the ultimate windup to his punch, after a hell of a lot of struggle to get in position to even attempt it?

It's literally called capeshit.

Hey! I'm not hating it! I love it!
There it is! Hope taking the shape of a fist and power in the hands of a force of good.
Love that shit.

I don't think of any of those people.
Alfred Pennyworth and Aunt May are the first ones that comes to my mind.

People only care or think about what is in front of them a least 50% of the time. Most posters who saw that image saw only that image, and not any associated explanation or pages. It's a meme. Context is anathema.

I wasn't stupid enough to make a point like that. Go read my original post. Ignoring you now.

>how much they worship Dragon Ball and One-Punch Man
You shouldn't talk about things you dont have any knowledge of
DBs old arcs are fondly remembered for the humor and the stuff from the Z era people like because of Toriyamas art and his ability to make static images flow on a page, and everyone agrees the writing and plots have been shit for decades
And people don't like OPM because of how strong Saitama is, they like it because it's a mix of all the action stereotypes they like coming from other characters and how Saitama is a deconstruction of some of those writing devices, like we all know that the hero is going to win in the end no matter what so why draw it out and pretend that there are actually stakes for the hero, plus the art in the manga is stellar

>How am I not an average person?
Because you're here in a saturday afternoon arguing about comic books, you are deeply invested in a niche form of entertainment that's not average
When the average person thinks of superheroes they think about superhero movies first, when they think of those movies they think of Marvel, and when they think Marvel heroes most think of Ironman first, or Spiderman
And I can hear you screeching already, not being average isn't inherently bad

>Superman is truly more human than All Might in ways that he just doesn't express.
Superman express a lot. There's more humanity in Superman having fun with his dog than in those "LE SMASH" scenes that weebs worship so much.

Clark got a TV series about how he grew from a teenager into an adult than ran from 10 years. We know of his school life, his friends, his parents, his hobbies, his girlfriends, and everything that comes with living a human life. Can we say the same about All Might?

because superman never fought anyone stronger than him that wasn't a special
The fact he still doesnt fight myxlplyx level of villains each issue/episode baffles me

Thanks, I guess?

...and this here is why Mangas are so pathetic when we try to loom for depth in them.

The average weeaboo CANNOT think of stories as more than fights. They simply can't. It's something wrong with their bran chemistry, they simply can't help it.

So, if a weeb tried to write "Sandman", he would write a story about Morpheus, Lucifer Morningstar and Destruction having massive fist-fights for 80 issues. If a weeaboo ever discovered Sandman and tried to read it, he would hate it.

"How can a character so powerful have good stories? Why isn't he fighting against Lucifer every single issue/episode? It baffles me!".

This is either bait, or the equivalent of boomers going "comics are all just guys in circus costumes punching each other".

I am literally replying to a post in which a weeaboo says that Superman should face "myxlplyx level of villains" every single issue of his comic book.

I am not baiting when I say that weeaboos can't see stories as more than a direct measure of power-levels.

>movies don't count
>tv show does
I'm having trouble with superfags and their logic. How can we even have a discussion if you all cherry pick the media and arcs that you want to represent "muh Supes"

Everything counts, including movies.

If you want to measure popularity using the movies, then take the BO of "Man of Steel" and the BO of "My Hero Academia: The Movie", and see which one did better.

Dishonest comparison due to a theatrical release in one country and a limited release in another against a worldwide release
If someone knows how to scale that though we can use it

>Dishonest comparison
This thread - and every "east vs west" threads, for that matter - is all about dishonest comparison.

"All Might is better written than Superman because his fight against All For One made me cry", "Mangas are better than comics because I masturbate to Oh My Goodness! doujins", and so on.

It doesn't get more dishonest than that.

>Superman is better despite being increasingly irrelevant for decades and only pushed because the logo sells merchandise other than comics
At least you realize you're being dishonest

Why can't a "My Hero Academia" movie make more money than that of a irrelevant character?

Because anime is not that relevant.

You need to read 12 to appreciate him. That’s all I read.

OP there is an entire board dedicated to the discussion of anime, you don't need to bring it here.

east vs west threads are cancer and against >>>/global/rules/3 and >>>Yea Forumsrules/1

Than anime is more irrelevant than an irrelevant western character, even when said anime (My Hero Academia) is the Pietà of japanese literature?

Damn. Manga truly is pathetic.

"bout as many times as All Might hase ignored his limit and saved the day because of "muh plus ultra"

It's kind of hard to tell good long-form sequential stories about Superman these days. By default you have him starting at a level that's absurdly strong, yet he still has to fit into a universe where heroes like Batman have problems fighting dudes like Bane.

That's why the best modern Superman stories are usually shorter books focusing on him in a more "meta" context. All-Star Superman, for example, is about contrasting outlandish silver-age-ish stories against Clark's very simple yet wholesome worldview, alongside what it "means" to be Superman.

In comparison. characters like All-Might and Iron-Man slot in better for long-term storytelling, because they're powerful, but not so powerful that they steal the spotlight out from other characters by way of their existence. They also have character flaws that are more easily explorable than Supes's whole "god living as a man" shtick.

Tl;dr: Superman is a good character, but the way stories are set up these days he's harder to write.

Look man please don't try and start a thing. I like both Superman and All Might but to say Toshinori is somehow better than the cultural icon that is Clark Kent is kinda dumb. It's also okay to like MHA and Superman comics, just don't try and compare the two

Why does Yea Forums have an autist that
A: Tries to get this board to hate Superman
B:Try to start shit with MHA. Because I'm pretty sure it's the same faggot who tries to shit up those threads on Yea Forums and has to bring it here too.

>Edguy song
What? Link me up.

Unironically this

only amerifats like superman

Honestly, why even compare the two. The only similarities I feel between the two is being super strong and being an icon in their respective universes. It's like comparing them to Saitama or some shit. Similar abilities, completely different ideologies.

Though for real, why we talking about anime shit on a cartoon board?

Your a fucking retard. Strongmen look like that because literally all they care about is lifting a heavy thing. It would be a terrible build for a hero, they can't move for shit

MHA threads used to be comfy and fun on here before people turned them into East vs West threads. I wish we had threads were the discussions can be what can MHA learn from Capecomics and what can Capecomics learn from MHA and stuff like that. Discussing the strengths and weaknesses of each instead we get

LMAO GET FUCKED ALL-MIGHT IS BETYER AND IF YOU LIKE SUPERMAN YOU ARE A KEK

Last months issue of Fantastic Four where the Thing does a Detroit smash 100% on hulk was hype as fuck

I personally enjoy characters feelings and relationships to All Might more than the character himself. The set up to a world of meta humans who can all aspire to be Superman is cool. My favorite two episodes of BnHA are the final exam episode and the fight between Deku and Byakugo after the provisional licence exam. The former is a very interesting juxtaposition of how each character views All-Might: Deku seeing him as Godlike, someone he can look up too but never actually overcome, while Sasuke sees him as the apex of strength, but one he wants and strives to surpass. Later, after the dorm fight, seeing Byakugo's feelings about the depowering of All Might and how it affects him in contrast to his ultimate goal over surpassing him was a great a character moment.
I don't think any of it particularly deep or profound, even for shonen standards, but the concept is sometimes used incredibly well in a way that I don't think Superman could really be used in.

Well the only real comparison I could make between them are
>Secret alter egos (not uncommon)
>A compulsive need to help others, and regrets at the thought of not always being there to save the day
>A symbol of hope that keeps a fragile society together given that they're the strongest heroes of their respective worlds
And that's really about it. Clark Kent is far more optimistic and upbeat than Toshinori.
It's really one or two anons just trying to shitpost it into oblivion out of some weird autistic hate. There's really a lot you could talk about on here regarding MHA. And really its almost flattering how Hori made it out of appreciating western superhero comics. He's a big fan of Spider-Man in particular. I think the best thing we can do is encourage anons to post like in the past as you mentioned, and naturally try not to feed the shitposting. Of course that's the ideal situation, and ultimately up to Yea Forums to change for the better

Here ya go, user. That shit was pretty good

Sadly, there is not, because this board isn't for Japanese media.
You might as well say "There's a lot about Steven Universe that could be explored on Yea Forums."

You only get this far on Yea Forums with this Jap stuff because everyone on Yea Forums is a weeb to some degree; and our jannies are lazy as fuck.

Oh I know you. You're the salty wannabe jannitor who threw a fit about this shit being discussed on Yea Forums, even though mods deleted your ranting and already made it clear MHA is okay to talk about on Yea Forums.
>Sadly there is not
Yeah sure pal. Fuck off and give it a rest already

>realized early on in MHA that All Might's coming of age superhero story would have been way better and more interesting than the protagonist's and nothing that has happened since has changed my mind

You should read Vigilantes if you haven't already. Same universe, set a little before the main story, following a smaller cast illegally being heroes. Crawler here actually has a neat power with a lot of versatility

His hands and feet emit a field that can either repulse or attract, meaning he can stick to walls or glide on the ground at high speeds. He can even do this (sort of) on air too kind of like how Dante from DMC air steps. He also learned how to make this repulsion field on his hands become a charged projectile. And yeah, he is a huge dork. Most of the "vigilante" stuff he did was pick up litter and help people with directions

Spider-Man?

Yeah he's one of a few Spider-Man inspired characters. He mostly just glides on the ground on all fours like some weird hovercraft. Other Spider-Man inspired characters of the MHA series would be Kamui Woods and Cellophane

I think what I like about MHA that's cape comics don't touch on is the training of powers and such. Which is standard for a shouen battle anime

The problem is that with western comics is that you don't really have the privilege to waste time on "training arcs" given how hard it is to keep readers invest as is. Though admittedly, I wish X-Men gave a damn about their school.

Is he the one whose mom molested him?

super man is a lot more mild mannered and not nearly as eccentric. Not that is a bad thing, its just clearly different

I'm not sure who or what you're referring to. That guy has a very strict and protective mother with the power to slap people from a distance

I wish we had an anthology book for both marvel and DC that deals with slice of life stuff and things involving training and such

I guess they sympathize with him more because he’s slowly dying and wants to pass on everything he knows to his pupil?

All Might doesn't take center stage. He has all this experience and power so he takes a mentor role. Superman at this point should be doing the same, being an older guy who passes his experience and wisdom down to others, but instead he keeps being the center of his own stories, which either leads to 1) awkward and forced flaws to create conflict which convinces very few people and may even make the story laughable, or 2) Superman lecturing the audience directly through his stories.

>Wise and Intelligent attitude
All Might kind of is neither of those things.
Not that he's stupid he just lacks the ability to teach well, but he can inspire the fuck out of kids.

All might has a weakness
>uh krypt-
no, not really

when was the last time kryptonite was effectively used for anything more than just a plot device to have superman not instantly end something

also

Nobody in the general public actually knows anything about Superman outside of the fact he's supposed to be The Best Superhero there is and perfect in every way.
Even if this doesn't actually apply to him that's what the zeitgeist around him has been for decades.

Kino

I like the animated version better tbqh.

1. Zack Snyder
2. No other ongoing altenratives for kids and normies to look at in terms of cartoons or movies
3. All Might effectively has a sidekick in the form of Deku, and since the show is from Deku's perspective we're constantly being told how we should look up to him. Superman is the protagonist of his story and doesn't really have exact that same dynamic with anyone.

Really, Yea Forums is the worst place to find an opinion about BNHA.

Honestly is the worst place to find an opinion about almost anything.

Not even reading the rest of the thread but it's because there's no popular media done with Superman, Man of Steel was controversial at best without even getting into how hated BvS was and that's the highlight of Superman's popularity outside of comics, not including the Injustice games where he's a villain. All Might a bunch of positive features the authors loves about Superheroes like Superman but in a popular ongoing manga and anime, Superman just needs more good modern material.

One of the things that make me laugh is that Black calls Superman a "degenerate" which is odd since that buzzword applies least to Superman.

Well, he's at least a better messiah.
And he is thematically and visually more interesting.
By the end of the movie he shows more moves and creative power use than you could do with Supes.

Without prior knowledge and attachment All Might is simply the more interesting character. His power is limited, his motives clear and his changing design offers not only contrast, but makes for social commentary.
Superman is a product of a bygone era and DC have never had the grace to admit as much to themselves.
The hunk of folksy goodness just lacks the kind of dramatic complexity modern audiences like.
Western audiences are just knee-deep in super heroes and steeped in film experience.
Supes is a simplistic concept that makes for a nice icon, a catchy ideal. But he is not engaging for long-form story telling in animation or film. At least for anyone beyond childhood.

Personally my favorite part is when Black cries because even he knew Superman was supposed to be an example for the world and was in disbelief when he seemed ready to kill.

I liked most of AC#1000

I've found as I've gotten older that most people that spout shit like that are projecting.

Why are there so many posters claiming Superman is boring? What, because he's a genuinely good person? It's faggots like you that keep giving us Injustice tier bullshit

>I liked most of AC#1000
That's a comic.

The thing about Superman is that you can write him a myriad of ways in a wide breadth.
He is a timeless classic that I hope lives on to the next century and beyond as the Man of Tomorrow.

I mean it was pretty popular.

I only saw the movie but I guess that works. I liked the final fight where he wasn’t trying to hurt her and just kept on making her believe in him.
