Current Big Three

>forgetting Kingdom
Rude. I agree though.

You posted this in few other threads but no one gave you a (you) lol

Agreed that the manga is shit but anime does a great job of purifying the shit and the nuggets of quality in hxh get turned into something new and kino.

I'm not saying these are perfect, just the best of the relevant ones. One Piece anime adaptation is hot garbage but the manga is easily peak conventional shounen.

well which anime are you talking about,'99 or '11?

I think both are good in different ways. The backgrounds, art, and some scenes that use detail and dramatic lighting/shadows are really well executed in '99 while motion itself looks much better in '11 at the cost of detail and some shadows.

fuck you user, don't shit on something that clearly you don't even read
>HxH constantly has shit like pic related
this is the proof that you have never put your eyes on the scans in the last 4 years: the quality has never been that high since the start of the manga.
Pic related is the final version of a draw made during the worst period for Togashi's health. This image has more than 10 year. 10 fucking years. get your facts straight fag if you want to prove something.

I'm the user defending hxh but this still looks pretty weak drawing of a hand. You gotta come to terms with the fact that the strength of hxh is far away from it's art.

That final "improvement" of the page is still really fucking bad. It's the chicken/turkey page all over again

>this was still published in jump.
have you some kind of brain damage? Here another pic from 10 fucking years ago, and as I said, that was the worst periodo of all for Togashi. Pic realted whows how the quality than was improved in the volume version.

Up until Part 7, Jojo is shonen.

I normally post the same arguments you use to trigger hunterfags but this isn't a hunterfag thread and I gotta be honest.

There are great merits to Togashi's writing style that get to shine in anime adaptations more then in his own manga. That's just observable fact, and the effect in the anime is top notch.

I agree the '99 animation is fucking kino, it's one of my favorite animes alone because of that. Not baiting though and just wondering, what did you think of '11's animation?

>niggers still trying to form a "new" big three

I already put forward my opinion here: I'll just add that I think '99 is a better adaptation but it's also a cocktease because of it's ending before chimera arc so in general I enjoyed more out of '11 just because it adapts more of the manga.

OPfags gotta start making more excellent content like this, huntard "chads" need to be put in their place

OP here, HxH doesn't have deeper philosophy then One Piece, it just pretends it does. Only pseuds fall for that meme.

You clearly don't understand what good lines in artwork mean. It means the amount of lines used to draw something. The less the artist uses, the better. Also the form, the inking, the trajectory, the symmetry of each line. Togashi does that masterfully.
Murata uses CGI. He does that for background, buildings, fillings and coloring. Go ask a drawfag or someone who understands about manga art. You don't know anything about artwork and you just like overdetailed CGI shit.
His art is souless and it will never match the likes of Togashi. Notice that I am only talking about artwork, and I'm not going to use the paneling, choreography and overall composition in my argument; otherwise that would be close to bullying.

From my experience hunterfags are the worst, and stay in containment threads the least. Probably cause they're bored to shit/

Who are you quoting?

Togashi is a master of fundamentals, paneling and creating memorable page composition. The man is a genius who can set up his scenes from interesting pov angles that are able to put in contrast what each scene is exactly trying to portray. As an example, I'll direct you to this page which is one my favorites of Togashi's magnum opus. Let me break it down for you:

The head shot of Gon breaks the boundaries of the first panel, which already takes up almost the entire first half of the page, making him feel imposing and setting the tone. His pointing hand is aimed right at the eyes of the reader and it seems to hover above the page, making it feel close and uncomfortable.
The reactions to his words are framed around the hand, small and unimportant. The final panel is a shot of the enemy's feet, giving the idea that they're looking down in defeat and submission.

Overall I think, this should give many authors and artists a textbook example of "paneling done right".

I've read over 400 manga and I've never seen someone use panel composition, coreography and POVs so masterfully like Togashi. His simplistic art is perfect to focus the attention of the reader on the details of the story and the emotions he's trying to portray.

exactly this. The only way people can shit on hxh is by cherry picking panels from when he was injured. Togashi easily has some of the greatest art of all time, it's not even a fucking contest. But the average shonen shiteater has no idea about panel composition, choreography and POV.

that's the whole reason chadposting was invented. Because we know it's a waste of time even to try to explain it to those low IQ faggots so we just have fun toying with them

can I underline the fact that that pic is just a drop in a ocean?

yes yes keep changing the subject, maybe with the next one things will go better

see

The thing with philosophy in One Piece is you actually have to analize it for it to be visible. You have to, you know, think and observe. HxH fans that stay in containment too long and don't read good literature get the impression that if a philosopher is not being namedropped then there's no philosophy. Meanwhile a good writer like Oda (not that Togashi isn't good, he's just more experimental) weaves the philosophy into the worldbuilding.

For example in CAA you've got the issue of subjective morality presented by humanity making contact with a species that treats humanity like humanity treats cattle. It's highlighted in expostition very clearly, with basically a slideshow about it.

Meanwhile in One Piece the same issue is presented in a subtle way in the very conflict between Marines, Straw Hat and Blackbeard. Both Straw Hat and Blackbeard just want to be free, they even have the same lines, and both Blackbeard and Straw Hat took out many famous pirates on their to the top, the only reason why Blackbeard is considered a villain is because he lead to Luffy's brother being arrested. Not even killed, cause that was up to marines to decide, now look at how many pirates were arrested, their ships sunk and their lives ruined because of Luffy. Every pirate does this, the cruel battle for survival is bread and butter in One Piece and the villain is the one who loses, and the hero the one who makes it to the top of the foodchain and gets to define the terms.

See the same concept but presented in a subtle way, not beaten into the reader. And each arc goes on to explore things much more nuanced and difficult then this.

If it wasn't for those pages and the eternal hiatus HxH would be more popular. It used to be more popular than Naruto in my country.

Seems to me like you are the autist. Make a retarded mistake that every retard have to notice, and the start screaming at others, unable to accept that you were a retard in the first place.

FUCKING KEK

One Piece is barely good. Like what did One Piece have that's great? One large battle that people keep jerking off to? That really wasn't all that great either in retrospect.

It also feels like all the One Piece characters get backstories written retroactively, and there really isn't anything planned. You guys just fall for it being planned when it's all retroactive backstory. For example Sanji, do you really think when he was introduced the author had any of the Germa shit in mind? No. No he didn't.

With HxH it feels like everything is intentional and all the backstories of the characters are known as soon as they're introduced, and the author isn't just retroactively trying to make them flow within the story.

OP is also bloated with shallow story lines and characters that are only there to extend the story so it can be milked for more money. There is so much garbage piled over the half decent story that it just makes it so tedious to go through.

HxH has a focused tight story throughout every arc and as a whole, and still manages to have an expansive world full of adventure. I won't say HxH's story is better because Togashi isn't trying to milk it endlessly, because that would be insulting the vast difference in writing talent between Togashi and Oda. Though I'm sure it plays a role.

Why do you guys like One Piece so much? It's the Mcdonalds equivalent of manga.

Hunterchadposting is pretty genius if you think about it.

If you own the over the top pretentious attitude it just comes across as insincere so it can't really be used as an insult against you, and at the same time you can dump copypasta after copypasta of stuff taken straight from some anime snob's essay. You always win with copypastas, if people respond you just immediately post another long ass pasta that vaguely adresses their counterpoints and introduces a bunch of new arguments and you can do it until they realize they're making an ass out of themselves arguing alone. Not to mention that a lot of them are usually pretty well put together and require an effort to refute convincingly and you actually bring up some valid points to praise your series in either case. If they reply, you win. If they don't, you win too. You always have the psychological advantage.

You can shitpost whatever you want and you know you'll get the voiced approval of some other shitposters while they scorn those who respond negatively, you pretty much always have numbers with you because no one else voices their opinion like that. The approval can be ironic when you make some shitty joke or cringy meme or sincere when you actually post something of worth, it works in both cases. Even though it's obviously meaningless, I think it plays on the psychology of whoever is arguing against you because you often see posters get increasingly worked up the more this happens. It's the sole purpose of those based/cringe posts.

I honestly can't see a way to beat it except ignore it long enough for chadposters to get tired of it, but there is ALWAYS someone to take the bait and spark up some shit. Personally I think it can be pretty funny if done right but it can get old fast. Hunterchadposting is a fine balance between ironic shitposting and sincere opinions and it's pretty meta as well, I think in a way you could consider it a deconstruction of shitposting. It's pure genius.

Big Three is not a term that can be applied today, you fucking newfag retards. Big 3 was a term coined 2 decades ago for the series that were supposed to attain Dragon Ball levels of popularity, which they did (Naruto, OP, Bleach).
If we're talking about biggest, most quality shonen in the current year, it's Shingeki no Kyojin, JJBA, and OP (not because its quality, more like history).

First of all it's the best conventional shounen. If you enjoy the "shounen journey of self improvement" then One Piece does it best with up to 9-10 characters constantly growing and improving throught their journey. It's also a good mix between a nip shounen and a western "hero's journey". So that is the basic appeal.

For quality you have to look into the art and worldbuilding. The art is cartoonish but perfect for a weekle release schedule, it's expressive, fluid, makes everything outlandish seem acceptable because of it's retro-american cartoon aesthetic.

And of course there's worldbuilding and characters. Like you said: "HxH has a focused tight story throughout every arc" which is true. Well that's actually at the cost of the whole world being completely pretextual in it's nature. Sure, it has potential for adventure but the world doesn't feel alive, it's more like it's alive when you're looking at it, but if you turn away it stands still.

In One Piece the world is full of parallel as well as historical action and events, large part of the plot is about the exploration and learning it's secret history which makes the plot and characts tightly connected to the world they live in.

Also Togashi uses characters to explore some ideas and make experiments. For example "what would happen if cell came to be when goku was still a pretty weak child". Meanwhile in One Piece characters are first and foremost emotionally and psychologically fleshed out before they're dropped into the world to play they part in the plot. It's a different school of writing:
Oda: characters are created before their scenes just happen
Togashi: plot is created before the characters play out their scenes
Both have their own merits. Oda's make the story more enticing and interesting on a scene to scene basis while Togashi makes for great build-ups and kino scenes at the end of the build ups.

why are you chads so insecure about a single video

Why are you keep spamming your falseflag video?

thats not good art though. looks like the characters are floating and dont belong there.

When Oda can manage to move away from his predictable way of telling stories (somebody needs help on an island, the Strawhats help them by defeating the villains from the weakest to the strongest), maybe then, and only then he'll be as good storyteller as Togashi.

HXH is one of the very, very few shounen jump comics that has consistently managed to surprise its readers. (Who the hell could predict ANYTHING during the Genei Ryodan arc?) Oda isn't on par as a storyteller, he drags on his arcs too much, and his way of making and ending fights is becoming too tiresome, and it got predictable during Arabasta.

Be quiet, pleb.

Alright user, but there's much more to quality of storytelling then surprise. I respect your opinion but look at Lord of The Rings. You know that they're going to go to another kingdom and meddle with it's politics, meet the kingdom's leader and learn the lore and then move on to another one until the ring is destroyed.

So you can see the shape of the "narrative skeleton" but the lore, the journey, the parrallels to real world issues in the worldbuilding, the questions and issues they touch on through metaphorical elements make it a kino journey with amazing, and subtle storytelling that mostly doesn't rely on surprises but the slowly introduced worldbuilding.

One Piece is basically that but with a different, "fun" atmosphere and aesthetic and deep in the "shounen" genre.

Well hello mental gymnastics. It is called manga for some reason, he should just make it light novel at this point for all I care.

Maybe pre-TS One Piece had some interesting themes about adventure and wonder but then Oda decided to milk his franchise because he has no respect for his readers and is only interested in money. Everything after the Time Skip is garbage and Fairy Tail level. Even the MCs turned into mascots.

Most people overstate how much the TS hurt One Piece. I think the only thing thats noticeably worse is the art and flanderization of the main cats. The themes are fine, the plot is progressing, and although some arcs are dragged out the pacing seems reasonable.

It consist of drawings and words not 90% wall of text, you ONLY READ book, f.e. light novel.

well... are you gonna refute my point? manga is essentially comics, you cant not have drawings in comics.

>he watched manga instead of reading it
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HXH is the exception, you could write a college thesis paper on it

The culprit was a shitposting Aussie.

One Piece has a deeper and more advanced lore than a story like Hunter x Hunter, instead its world is more on the level of Tolkien or Herbert, but is presented so that a child can have an enjoyable and memorable understanding too.
One Piece is full of allegory, metaphor, and foreshadowing on scales of hundreds of chapters for all three. It’s something you can read as a kid and understand, and then read as an adult and understand again but in ways that take advantage of the advanced storytelling you missed as a child.
Any other interpretation from an adult suggests bad development in reading comprehension, that you are only capable of the child’s understanding of this story.

Wait, Australians were behind most of the HxH shitposting?

Aesthetically yes, but thematically not at all. FI presents a look on racial issues more nuanced and intelligent that the West's infertile womb has produced in decades (even though it's the worst arc in general). Dressrosa as well, Doffy's character is a continuation of a character study of Woland(Satan) from Master and Margarita thet expands on his emotional trauma and consequences of falling out from God's grace which leads him to violently fall from Heaven straight into depths of Hell. As well as expands on other issues later on in the arc.

Man I have read one piece until end of dressrosa and it has not been good for the whole timeskip part (at least until the end of dressrosa), HxH never got boring for me, still both mangas are great but I kinda think one piece is more predictable than HxH.

One Punch Man BAD
Godgashi GOOD

Read it and see if those OPtards are baiting or serious. By the end of the first 3 arcs you should realize that OP is targeted towards the lowest subhuman speciment that just wants nakama fights and the same adventure where the bad guys loses against the good guy. All the empty words those OPfags are using to describe OP are ridiculous because everyone who has watched or read it knows they are full of shit and OP is just a manga for children and manchildren. Something that an adult would never enjoy reading or watching.

Oda is truly based, but these comments from Togashi worry me a lot. Poor guy.

Well the FI take on racial conflicts is an expansion from one of the last arc from the first saga. The East Blue saga however start as a pretty comfy adventure story, not that deep at all. You get some loose visual and atmospheric inspirations from Tom Sawyer and Boy Who Cried Wolf. However what I liked in those arcs is the emphasis on honor and the duties and strength of man. It's really dignified and badass. It kinda reminds of Joseph Conrad's very masculine take on literature but even though he's also mostly a marine literature writer I don't think Oda was necesserily inspired by him.

BTW if you wanna get into One Piece I generally recommend reading Joseph Conrad and Tom Sawyer to develop the taste for the atmosphere of the vast ocean as well as LOTR or Hobbit for a similar adventure feel.

I hope you realize that the big difference is that OP never goes into depth about those themes and they are only presented on the surface to appeal to the reader's emotions, in order to make you like or dislike a character. It's something that you find in literally any shounen. even Naruto has deeper and more complex themes than One Piece.
Your posts will never be taken seriously by anyone who has watched or read the series or even just by searching One Piece of youtube and watching all the high lights - that are basically Luffy beating the bad guy and moving on to the next one.
One Piece is a manga for children because it presents only surface level themes without exploring them, the way HxH does, without putting the MC in a moral conflict. Luffy is always the good guys, everyone loves him and he's always right. When he's about to lose, his nakama give him powers and he defeats the bad guy. That's what OP is.

The fact that you are over 13 and still read OP means that you are mentally inferior.

based

That's only if your reading comprehension allows you to only see the superficial features of the story.

And like I said in the other post the first few arcs are character introductions and not that deep compared to the rest of the series. However they're not shallow either.

Attached: 213123.jpg (631x363, 65K)

You're only forcing those themes when they are not there. I've read it and watched the anime, and everyone with some intellectual honesty will agree with me that OP is trash meant for children. There is nothing complex or multi-layered about it. The themes that get introduced, are forgotten immediately after a few chapters when Luffy moves on to the next big battle. There are no repercussion and all the MCs are one deminsional despite Oda having 900 chapters to exlore them.
Its obvious to everyone with an IQ above 110 that OP was written by a brainlet for other brainlets. But you can keep trying to force those themes in your kiddy series, but nobody will ever take you seriously.

oh give me a break. it goes deeper with otohime representing MLK(ending racism through diplomacy) and fisher tiger being malcom x (more violent)through out the arc, but at the end of the arc it doesnt just leave us with "humans are evil", it leaves us with "fishman are equally evil"

HxH is objectively better written but I enjoy OP more and can easily see why OP is much more popular. I can turn my brain off and read OP on the train but I can't do the same for HxH (recently). The current arc in HxH requires a lot of investment, I think that's why many casuals have dropped it.

That's not a theme. That's just the bad guy saying mean things because he's bad and the reader needs to dislike him.
You're obviously mentally inept and you can't differentiate between a theme and a plot convenience.
We got shown flashback of that shark guy, like we are shown flashbacks about that fire and ice guy from MHA or like any Akatsuki member in Naruto. That's not a theme, either.
Everything is superficial because Luffy is going to beat him and then save the day. Nothing is ever addressed about the themes nor are they ever criticized.
Just accept the fact that you're a manchild and you're reading Wan Piss because you're stuck with it.

OPfags average IQ is 80-90 that's why they enjoy reading the same shit for 900 chapters. Another proof that OP offers nothing to the manga world is that it didn't influence even one manga during its 20 years of run and it was never praised by any other mangaka

>judging on a single page rather than the arc
nice post, huntfag

>it was never praised by any other mangaka
kek. Togashi himself bowed down to Marineford arc and is copying it.

It's just a different type of story and presentation. A distinct demography doesn't mean lack of quality. I think OP handles itself greatly for what it tries to do. There's no point in moral dilemmas and the fights are mostly about narrative weight than reasonably complex strings of reasoning. Stop comparing two completely different mangas on the same field and learn not to mock other people's tastes.

The shounen virgin incel vs the hunterchad

Don't you feel insulted when you read One Piece? As someone who is highly educated and learned, when I started reading OP, I expected something good but it turned out to be one of the most bland and retarded shounen I've ever read. Its the same formulaic scenario presented in every arc. Luffy and his nakama come to an Island, they save the good guys and beat the bad guys. The MCs are all bland, one dimensional and boring, they offer nothing new and they have the same character for 20 years.
Just imagine writing the same exact carbon copy characters for 20 years, how can you call yourself an artist? There is a reason if OP sells only in Japan and outside of there its pretty much ignored by everyone. Only retarded Japs could buy that shit.

Sure, I got bored after a few story arcs and I'm only reading it out of curiosity by this point, but that's just because I have different interests in fiction today than I had when I picked OP. Doesn't mean other people are dumb or wrong for enjoying it, nor does it mean that Oda is a hack or retarded. Some people just want to see a heart-warming adventure to turn their brains off. Intellectual orientation doesn't necessarily correlate to actual intelligence.
Criticism is far deeper and more technical than that.

That's an interesting statement to make about One Piece characters, user. HxH isn't a stranger to 'goofy' character designs either. I think you're just finding any small thing to hate on because you can't think of anything substantial. Also, if you see 'sad backstory' as a One Piece character's only defining trait, it just means that you simply don't understand anything about the characters of the series you're trying to criticize.
