Kino design. Sleek and simple
Why did bleach never take off like Naruto or Dragonball or one piece in the west?
No rival for the MC unironically. Also bad worldbuilding with little sense of "Woah so big!!!" That you get from Naruto/Dbz
Complicated character names, especially the villains
>Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez
>Aaroniero Arruruerie
Not EVERYBODY needs surnames, Kubo. It only makes things more complicated and unmemorable.
One piece never took off in the west
Because it's shit even compared to them
Naruto has horrible world building, get some fucking taste.
It's literally one of the biggest series in the world right now. Unless you're one of those retards that thinks the US = the west
I think Aizen is a pretty simple name.
Bleach was edgy when being edgy was considered bad. If bleach would release NOW, it would probably be the best selling manga ever, the new generation is the epitome of edginess so they would eat it up like hotcakes.
Already has
Naruto has great world building. Get off your edgy horse and appreciate it. There's a reason it's popular and that's because the world is massive.
Bleach meanwhile has what? Karakura and Soul Society which is just random buildings? lol
I actually like Naruto but that's complete bs. You're introduced to 5 big villages and a few smaller ones, yet Kishimoto forgets about all of them except leaf and sand until 500 chapters later. Sound was also relevant for about two arcs unveil nobody cared anymore. You also don't see anything about the kingdoms and their
relationships with the villages until right at the end.
Bleach on the other hand did develop soul society a fair amount, delving numerous times into the darker part behind it. Hueco Mundo is just nothingness but that's literally the point. It's just a hollow wasteland
Bleach did take off, just not as much
>kino
How does Yea Forums do it? Even with all it's flaws it still manages to maintain a level of quality far above the other media boards.
>Series being popular means it has good worldbuilding
That's not how it works
This is the 3rd, maybe more, bleach thread of the day. When will you have enough?
i don't believe that soul society or the final aizen fight will be topped by a new shounen in excitement but bleach was a piece of shit as a whole especially factoring in the filler
Naruto's worldbuilding is shit but it did have potential, that potential probably had a role in Naruto becoming famous, Kishi really hit the nail in the head with Land of Waves being the 1st arc
seethe and accept that we are going through a bleach renaissance
Kill yourself
cope and accept we aren't
why the hell do people say this? Everyone I'm friends with who isn't a weeb knows of three, and only three anime: Naruto, Bleach, and DBZ (and sometimes SnK actually).
Bleach was fucking huge back in America back in the day, and just because it fell off in its last few arcs wont change that
HeroAca is already better than Bleach.
Not like it's hard to be better than Bleach
Nice joke
That's because people are considering they echo chambers experiences what must have happened everywhere
But Bleach was pure garbage.
>Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez
But that's like, the best name for a bad guy to have. Just say it out loud, it's got fantastic cadence. It's complicated to spell, but you really only need to write out Grimmjow when you're talking about him.
>Will shounen ever become this kino again Yea Forums?
no. Shounen picked.
Should've ended after Aizen's defeat.
>Should've ended after Aizen's defeat.
Ichigo peaks when I say he peaks. - Kubo
Pleb opinion
Never should've started
It was too high iq for shonenbabbies to understand it.
To be fair you have to have a very high iq to understand Bleach
What did Kubo mean by letting Ichigo wield the Swatstika?
reading bleach actually requires paying attention to the paneling and not just speedreading through the dialogue bubbles.
that's way more effort than the average shonenshit.
Meme opinion
seething and coping
>O MY MUTT GENES
nice non-argument, retardposter
Cringe and dilate
Even in the West in the early to middle 00s people knew of the big 3.
>MC has no dream or unbreakable will, and is unironcially weak instead of getting called that for one scene of "I can Do It!!!!"
Why did Bleach end like that bros? TYBW arc could have transcended shounen
>World Building
>DBZ
The term isn't literal buddy, Namek arc/saga was the only good attempt at world building DBZ had
Bleach did great for what it was.Honestly surprising just the designs carrying a show for 15 years.
Kubo's character names were not only complicated, they were also too long. Shit, nigga, I always have to go to the Bleach wiki and narrow characters down so I can find their name and spell it somewhere.
We don't care about that soap opera tier shit in South America either.
>shittiest arc
>peak
Without a doubt shounen's least ridiculous and most aesthetic power-up design.
>shittiest arc
Pleb
Soul Society arc is so fucking good.
Is it opposite day today? The pacing of Bleach is so bad it's nigh impossible to speedread it, unless you're skipping entire chapters. We never had a problem with speereaders, only shippers who are know to deliberately ignore information that doesn't coincide with their presuppositions, and people forgetting things that happened 200 chapters ago, which is just plain forgetfulness.
This is just more fucking pseudo-intellectual bullshittery about Bleach being a good manga.
He just copied the Naturo ending. Just like he copied everything else.
The point of shonen is that by definition the audience is so young they haven't seen anything else before, so mangaka can keep reinventing sliced bread without much scrutiny. Tribalism, especially the tribalism of youth is stronger than common sense and evidence anyway.
It's a bit different now because of the internet and the wide spread availability of information but that certain wasn't the case is the dial up age of Bleach or Naruto.
Bleach stopped looking cinematic toward the ends of the SS arc. Kubo quickly got sick of adhering to the weekly mangaka lifestyle and being governed by editors as he was forced to perpetuate a long-game story. As such, his artwork suffered dearly. I don't want to make excuses for the guy, not at all, just wanted to point out that Kubo's general artistic attitude and style of creation is not at all cut out for weekly deadlines and long, over-arching plots. The only kind of series that he could maybe write effectively on a weekly basis would be something like a fashion-designer shounen which would be 50% slice of life filled with crazy outfits and non-sequiteur character interactions and 50% superpowered runway showdowns with set-ups and conclusions all governed by glorious asspulls based on STYLE POWER.
>copied
Not sure how, Bleach's final arc was miles away from 4th ninja war in basically every writing category but the war setting.
Imagine thinking Bleach was actually good.
Remember when YHWACH was a bunny alien from the moon and the Morpheus teached Ichigo who also was the first Shiba reincarnation the seal kido??
Yea Forums is the one who's responsible for meme productions
hahaha yeah they have you just are using bottom of the barrel shit
Fullbring arc was unironically one of the best arc of the series. Kubo can write Ichigo's character really well when he isn't distracted by giant battles all over the place.
he mean Dragon Ball, not Z
earth is unironically more interesting than space
The power system is bad. The protagonist is boring. Power levels are all over the place. Ichigo is a walking pile of asspulls. The locations are dull. The villains are forgettable.
It did take off for quite a while but it didn't have staying power.
You mean when he doesn't get fucked by his editor.
The 4kids dub really shot it in the foot in the west though. The other shows didn't have that setback.
Then why don't people care about Chainsaw and Jujutsu (using other WSJ series as an example)?
Probably not. We should be glad that at least most of us experienced these series as their target audience.
Newer and less well known. Im Sure bleach and one piece needed time to grow too
Wait what did he editor do?
Extended Karakura fights for every Shinigami and Fullbringer ar getting cut short (the Shinigami coming so early was cause of their popularity) are notorious examples of editor meddling desu. Also this is my personal opinion, not fact, but Byakuya surviving was obviously not what Kubo wanted and he probably survived cause of all that fan pressure (and probably editor influence since he had such a hard-on for the Shinigami). I remember people twiiting Kubo using the fanscans and threatening him while the chapter wasn't even out yet in Japan, God that was a shitshow, no wonder he's in no rush to return.
One Piece had other things against it in the America. Like the artstyle.
Because it DID take off!
Bleach is the 3rd best Shonen selling of ALL TIME you boah!
Ironically it was him at his worst there according to Kubo himself.
You really expect anyone to believe that?
He discovered a power that was within him the entire time after Aizen revoked his N-word pass
Bleach is not kino. Bleach is for niggers.
>the Shinigami coming so early was cause of their popularity
Fucking right at the climax when it's already been 40 chapters of boring bullshit is EARLY?
>Bleach was edgy when being edgy was considered bad.
Get a load of this underage.
2000s was the Emo decade, it was the Linkin Park decade. This is why shit like FMA and Naruto with it's Sasuke edgelord shit was popular.
It will be once AIZEN SHOWS HIS FUCKING BANKAI
Well Ichigo himself had definitely been at his lowest point during Fullbring.
Naruto also ripped off HxH and Ninku.
bleach is still top 10 selling manga of all time lol it's funny seeing Yea Forums hate on it. The anime will come back next year too mark my fucking words
This is actually kinda true, however. Kubo has fucking amazing panelling and it flows so naturally that you can glide through Bleach real smoothly. Kubo has fucking GODLIKE kinematics too.
Get a life already you nigger.
>Kubo has fucking amazing panelling
LOL his paneling is absolute trash-tier and you don't know what is happening 95% of the time.
His paneling was only decent at best when he was on his prime.
DBZ panelling is basic bitch shit. I hope you weren't trying to post something impressive. Unless you're gonna be "muh clean"
If you actually read bleach the movement is tactile moving from panel to panel, page to page. Kubo's bizarre quasi-fetishistic love of negative space is the only thing that harms the readability.
Read MHA
Villain arc was average
>axed
>DBZ panelling is basic bitch shit.
Shut the fuck up you dumb nigger bitch.
You have no idea what you're even talking about.
DB is like the only manga which readable action. In Bleach fights you can't tell what the fuck is going on 95% of the time. This goes for other manga like Naruto too.
Redditcademia still can't sell a million copies per volume like HxH can.
BASED
>DB is like the only manga which readable action
Cause it's probably the only manga you had back in HUEHUEland you spic.
>DB is like the only manga which readable action
Read more manga
Not a spic but you're a nigger.
I've read tons of manga.
Battle Shonen manga always have fucking terrible drawn action and benefit the most from anime adaptations.
With DB you can read the action very very clearly because Tori's art is clean and not overloaded with pointless clutter all over the place.
This is why I rate Toriyama so high. He's just on a whole other plane of existence to other mangaka when it comes to technical skill. He knows the limitations of the comic format extremely well which very few mangaka nowadays even do.
With Kubo while he keeps it simpler than most mangaka he wastes so many damn panels on just foot steps.
His fights are terribly paced and drag on for too long. And in the end the fights are resolved with bullshit hax powers.
Baki > DB
>He knows the limitations of the comic format extremely well which very few mangaka nowadays even do.
because he himself is the start of "dynamic fighting scene" and a habit at fighting scene take whole lot of page and panel
>source: my ass
No. Kubo was at his lowest.
lol
No, not even close.
BC is pretty kino though but nobody reached Bleachs level.
Unironically its a reference to a strongman body.
BC is trash
This. He is one of the best artists i have seen, murata has great art but panelling is average, i personally prefer the flow of a battle with the moves and panels instead of it just looking pretty and full of big detailed images.
> Battle Shonen manga always have fucking terrible drawn action
Read Bleach, Black Clover and World Trigger, than realise how fucking wrong you are.
Why would you spend more than five minutes at a time on here?
Yeah, it must be hard on retards. Too many letters.
The average anime fan can't really comprehend more than "tiddies and fighting", and while Bleach fulfills both of these categories to an amazing degree, the narrative complexity was too much for the average socially inept horny fourteen-year old boy or hot-topic daddy-issues girl.
Bleach also had characters who didn't do the same stupid shit over and over, and suddenly got stronger. Kubo invested a lot of effort explaining how most characters got to where they were, and why they got their crazy bullshit anime abilities. Little Tommy and Tiffany don't have the attention spans for that.
You forgot Kinnikuman.
Hell Saint Seiya is a steaming pile of garabage except for it's beautifully drawn fights.
Bleach was too far ahead of its time.
>Bleach is unironically liked now
So this is the power of nostalgia
Bleach Heroes and Villains don't rely on their powers to fight. They use dirty tactics and tricks like stabbing the enemy from behind, attack them in the middle of talking, or fire an attack at close range to get the job done. Ichigo, Aizen, Gin, Yumichika, Mayuri, Kenpachi, Byakuya, and Shunsui, Rukia, Ishhin are perfect examples of this.
Soifon, Yamamoto, Hitsugaya, Tosen, Renji, Shinji, Komomura, are terrible fighters because they try too hard to act like noble samurai in the middle of a war. This is why they get badly trounced by the more industrialized Vadenrich, or styled voer by Aizen
All of those have shit art
no
Guys, I miss the weekly KUBOOOOOOOOOOOO threads.
They were extra comfy.
It baffles me there's still all this arguing of Rukia vs Orihime when it was obvious from the beginning that Rangiku was always best
Rukia for personality, Orihime's body for the tits, Rangiku as extra pair of tits as needed. You only need the tits for Rangiku, it's not like the rest is special in any way.
But she has the biggest tits and slutty Onee-san personality to back them up
Probably not
>Will shounen ever become this kino again
Yep
youtu.be
>But she has the biggest tits
Highly questionable post hundred years war. It seems Orihime has the biggest tits, which means she tops on her very narrow scale, i.e the girl with the biggest tits. Now with an actual personality, like Rukia's, she could be a good girl. Thus the idea of merging both. Get the brain from best girl, get the tits from Orihime.
no it isnt bad, nice try
because kubo was sick
no he copied no one
imagine thinking bleach was never good, poor troll
Dangai Ichigo was cool but definitely not his best looking form.
implying all of the shit you said is truth
Learn how to sage
HAHAHAHAH good joke troll
it wasnt
Wrong way around.
It was more popular in the West than Japan.
Problem is Japan thinks Japan is the only country with money. Despite the fact even the American Dollar is more valuable than the Yen despite the American Dollar being in one of it's top 5 bottom values of all time right now.
i think you missed orihimes personality as well
ok first no, watch again, yoruichis boobs and matsumotos boobs are bigger than hers, and who are you to say with orihimes personality she is not already a good girl? she is and she is not just tits so no when merging her is not just her body you should just account for
user we didn't see 3 of the five great nations until the War Arc preamble, and that's being generous.
Nor did we see most of the Seven Swordsmen and when we DID get them they were made generic fodder with two exceptions and even then one became fodder because of power creep
And how about dual nature releases not being a thing until Mei and then we see a handful of Ninja with dual natures but hardly expanded upon.
Or how there are only 4-5 characters with Animal sage modes and 3 of them are related to Naruto.
Or the entire Kaguya/Hagaromo+Hamura/Ashura+Indra generations? Which they needed fanservicy but pointless filler
How about Lightning Release Mode? Are there other modes of the other elements?
And boy how about how many non character Jinchuriki we got. Even if we include filler arcs they stilled skipped a few and the ones left are still so one note or their tragedies are undermined by their lack of focus.
Want me to go on while you think the Naruto and Sauske show had good world building?
Post tits.
Quads of truth.
>So little fan art of her in non Shinigami clothes
>Even then it's usually just the schoolgirl uniform or as a turbo slut
does people hate this image of orihime?
Only tumblrites and fags
could you explain me why?
Sexy women make them uncomfortable
Well what should she be wearing then?
yes, she looks like an ugly trumbrile landwhale here
>landwhale
Flatfags should all be destroyed.
>that white dress Rangiku
Is that fan coloring or Kubo finished for JET?
no she doesnt. get your fucking eyes checked out
yeah i agree but this goes beyond any of that, i have seen countless pages of hate towards her insulting calling her a whore, that kubo doesnt love her, that she is showing her pussy, and the most incredible stuff is that now that picture is used as an argument agains someone who is defending her. what do you think of that?
That they are fags
no it isnt, nice try troll
seething fatties
but do you think, they are right fighting over it?
Fags are never right on anything
>"I AM Zangetsu!"
>"we have always been together as one. Both of us are your own power."
Peak foreshadowing.
yeah but could you give a more reasonable explanation than "just fags"
What answer do you want? They ARE fags, they have to justify their dislike
its obvious you havent seen an overweight person like...never
i mean why do you disagree and how that they insult a character, that is not what they think just becaeuse of a fanservice image wont change anything
cope
>bumping this dead thread
Kill yourself
