Bleach, but not guilty, just pleasure

HxH isn't even in the top 20 selling manga

YuYu Hakusho was entry level too and the other long running battle shonen by that same author is also going to be entry level.

>TV-MA

>This directly contradicts the nature of smart manga like HxH, which are focused more on political maneuvering and indirect subterfuge
isn't that only after the 6th arc? If we are talking about anime, which learn to read retard that's what was in the OP, than it never even got to that.

Naruto

We compare sales per volume not sales overall, I know it's hard to use your brain for once but come on, it's literally even written on the picture.

It's entry level in the same way Death Note or Monster is entry level.
People get tricked into thinking it's more "mature" just because it's not about fighting all the time.

Of course Hiatusfag make those edits.

No, saw them in other threads before. Even the HxH one is an edit.

Replace HxH with Kimetsu no Yaiba.

There's versions of other popular shows too.

MHA. I've never watched any of the "big 3" and HxH isn't really a guilty pleasure, it's just good

I pity all people that didn't start hxh as a little kid and never had the live experience of the chimera ant arc.

One Piece isn't entry level because it has 900 episodes which will put off almost every newbie. HXH isn't entry level because it isn't as popular as the other 3 and the hiatus puts off people from wanting to watch the series. Therefore One Piece and HXH should be replaced with MHA and Dragonball.

hxh for sure. it’s pure unadulterated kino to the maximum.

hasn't been a fight in 40+ chapters

Based as fuck. It's also one of the few series to get an alright live action adaption

Wouldn't call those "fights" but okay.

So does Berserk, Tokyo Ghoul, and Vinland Saga. I'm sure you have a point somewhere

>Michael Bay´s transformers is a masterpiece

the point is that it's a battle shonen

HxH might be better but I can't help but to be more attached to one piece.

A battle shonen that moving to fewer fights. So would you call the others battle seinen?

not him but do you consider battle shounen as an insult or do you just truly think hxh isn’t a battle shounen?

HxH is a series that has occasionally the rare fight, BUT IT IS NOT A FIGHTING SERIES. Read and stop shitposting. Why would we make fun of shounenbabies if we liked the same kind of shit they do? Don't you see how flawed your logic is?

That's like saying Monogatari, a series very similar to HxH, is a battle series, despite 99% of the content being dialogue and philosophizing. The height of retardation.

What fight again? Netero vs Meruem is but a dialectic and Shakespearean dissertation of the character's psyque as well as the culmination of CA's themes.

The "fight" was literally nothing, insignificant, Meruem tossed around then a poisonous nuke is deployed and that's it. The fight was completely relegated to the background, WHICH IS WHERE IT BELONGS, this is how Togashi deconstructs shounen and subvert expectations by having the actual fight being insignificant, repetitive and secondary to what really matters here. No one praises that for a fight, no fights are ever praised or critically acclaimed, it's praised for the themes and it's dialectic presentation.

The 2nd chapters IS LITERALLY A FUCKING SOLILOQUY, that's Shakespeare since when battles have a soliloquy again?. You just proved you don't understand HxH, you probably even think it is some kind of battle shounen... pathetic.

Moby Dick a battle series, THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF SHOUNENBABIES, trying to desecrate literature greatest classics like Chimera Ant or Moby Dick.

Attached: Soliloquy.jpg (799x6007, 1.96M)

The only reason to bring it up would be to suggest that the fighting is what drives the plot of those series forward. It's used to demean the people that read such series as cheap entertainment, no need to play coy about it. Now what do you say of the series that relies less on combat to be the sole driving force? It can still be called battle shonen but that leads to expectations that will immediately be challenged with the amount of chapters where there isn't any fighting but more of what some here would say is "WORDS WORDS WORDS". It's kinda disingenuous.

ok but which of these shonenshits has the best girls?

I hope you're falseflagging.

If you go to Netflix you will literally see HxH listed as beginner anime.

I’m enjoying Bleach right now, but there’s so much filler, and very few characters (if any) ever die, so nothing ever feels consequential. Fights are drawn out way too long too. I guess this is just a criticism of that style of anime, but it would be such a good show if it were paced a little better and made for a more mature audience.

What fight was there, goober? Those were fights the same way a bar fight is a fight. Not the 1 on 1 hype duel that the other user was trying to paint it as, don't be dishonest

Nigger that shit is 99% of all anime and manga. The fight is either the substance itself or a metaphor for some argument between the two sides.
Your shit stinks as much as anyone else’s.

One Piece is pure joy

Fantasy pirates in a crazy, mysterious world is about as pure an adventure concept as you can get

Pretty sure the bomb wasn't brought up before it exploded. The two characters were fighting and then nope, bomb out of nowhere.

There's plenty of manga without fighting being the center of it. You just have limited taste in manga which is why it seems like it's a big part of the medium.

before and after the bomb he had no intention to kill anyone anymore

i fail to understand how some of you guys can read one shounen and not enjoy any of the other ones. i haven't read a single popular shounen i didn't enjoy.

Read better manga. Hi no Tori, HxH, Buddha, Paranoia Star, Mushishi, Pluto, Monster, YKK, Punpun, Rakugo, Kaiji, Ten, etc.

These are some of the most acclaimed manga of all time and there's no a single battle shounen there.

If we go anime you'd have to add SEL, Tex, LOGH, FLCL, Haibane, Monogatari, Paranoia Agent, etc. Same case, not a single battle shounen, the most derided genre there is.

No battle series can't ever be compared to Shakespeare or Melville, or even be as acclaimed as HxH. THAT'S A FACT. Battle shounen are for retards like yourself.

p-please add snk to the copypasta

naruto during my younger years, and when it ended i picked up one piece. I don't get why battle shounens get so much hatred, their not supposed to have deep morals and messages, or the story telling prowess of a great play or book, they're just about a young kid who has/gets super powers and goes on an adventure. Simple and fun stories to fill up your time every saturday. Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, DBZ, and all other battle shounens are great for their genre.

Someone used their Nen ability to punch someone else and it took one picture to convey it, I wouldn't call one picture taking half a manga page a "fight".

Prove that it is an edit?

I recognize that Naruto is horribly flawed but I fucking love it regardless

Ah, so you are being dishonest. Very bad, son.

Typically, a fight like Gon vs Hisoka or Kurapika vs Uvogin has thematic and narrative relevance with chapters worth of build-up. That how it is with practically any other battle series. This "fight" is with characters we only meet few pages prior, doesn't affect the plot or story in any way, last 4 pages at best, and isn't so much a duel but an ambush. Like if a man were drunk or angry enough to hit you in the head with a chair and you come back at him with a pool cue. Try not to argue in bad faith, it makes you seem petty.

That's a funny picture, casually "ignoring" the fact that in 2016, in the last year of serialization Bleach had, Kubo published 4 volumes selling a total of 1,860,729. Which oversells Hiatus x Hiatus' only volume published that year.

Why are daily My Hero Academia threads allowed while Naruto was relentlessly shat on forever?

But SnK sucks, why would someone add it to HxH, Hi No Tori and other masterpieces in this post

I don't understand it too but I never got into bleach, bc, hero academia and others, I even struggled fo enjoy kimetsu.

Another thread of Hunterchads absolutely demolishing seething brainlets and shounenbabies, if they want to start the conversation they should atleast be willing to finish it, all I see from the opposing side is Yea Forums tier buzzwords and no arguments, this is honestly way too easy, pick easier fights next time Yea Forums.

Ok, so hxh has really minor battles alongside the major ones. Your point? That just makes it seem more like a battle shounen.

Try reading Toriko user
it's the perfect manga to turn your brain off and enjoy some bullshit fight, manliness, epicness and by the end of the serie planet-sized fight and stupidly high powerlevels.
It gets way less credit than it should because the anime was trash that ranked so low that it actually made the editor rush the ending of the manga.

Yea Forums used to be more elitist, and by the time Yea Forums really got off the ground as a website Naruto was getting to its worse half, so it was easy to make fun of.

>There was an ambush then a retaliation.
yeah a fight, are you retarded?

Nice, I'm glad we can classify a Shonen fight from DBZ that can last 30 episode on the same level as a bar ""fight"" that lasts one page and depicts a person punching another person in one panel.

Whatever faggot, It doesn't matter what specifically you do when the average hunterfag is a schizophrenic retard who constantly spams shitty buzzwords and memes and is obnoxious as fuck. Congrats on being more intelligent than the rest of your cohort I guess

Hisoka literally cuts someones throat open with a card in the first 10 chapters. If that isn't pandering to the low iq apes, then I don't know what is.
Aside from that, if you're talking politics and subterfuge, Naruto is not devoid of either of those things. Even a retard could tell that Shikamaru doesn't adhere to the typical (so called) "shonen shit".

>HxH has 10x more narration, logic, nuanced dialogue, depth, complex plots, organic characterization, politics, subterfuge, realistic developments, than fighting, literally.
You lost me at narration. HxH is awfully bland and is unfamiliar with the term "show don't tell". The characters are average at best, Leorio being on the upper end and Gon being on the lower end. Truthfully, Gon is a horrible character and even HxH tards have admitted it before.

>dr stone is reddit

I know that shit series was the rick and morty of anime

>It's a strategy used in fights
No, it's a strategy used to prevent a fight. You're trying to catch them off guard to hold greater power over them.

IKR!!! Those disgusting evil hiatusfags !!! How dare they try to have actual conversations instead of just sticking to one sentence buzzwords and memes ?
This website is hopeless.

the last arc was really good, so the opinion is generally positive nowadays. personally, I don't have much of a problem with the 7 quirks thing but it's an easy target for shitposting

You hear people say they read a bleach chapter in 2 minutes? Well that makes a shitty experience when reading weekly but a nice experience when reading in bulk

>Manga is 6 arcs long
>Designed more closely like Jojo volume wise
>timeskip doesn't detriment the series as a whole
>Keeps more focus on what Kubo established in the first arc than retconning shit constantly.

Pretty obvious why dude.

yeah spamming pastas to derail every fucking thread is so much better

>How dare they try to have actual conversations instead of just sticking to one sentence buzzwords and memes
wew this lack of self awareness

Well like I said, Bleach is designed with only 6 arcs and long volumes like Jojo is.

Jojo main universe is 6 parts long FYI.

I liked WCI. Even if it isn't good (though I think I'll enjoy it to some extent regardless) One Piece is also a major sunken cost fallacy to me. I've been reading it for over 15 years and I want to be there, or at most a little bit behind, when it finishes.

oh jeez you sound like such a pussy little faggot

>Pastas.
That says something about you skipping every single post just because it has more than 300 characters, signs of a short attention span and low IQ, and you can't really say it's derailing threads when the thread is literally about Shonen and HxH, does your brain even work properly ??

wew what happened? I'm not caught up yet.

Not that guy but Whole Cake Island was a mess to me. Wano has been FAR BETTER by comparison.

Although I do LOL over the fact that Oda believes he's going to finish One Piece in 5 years.

>Giants storyline (if Oda is paying off that one Island)
>Boa Hancock and Celestial Dragons arc
>Blackbeard confrontation arc
>Raftel
>100 Year History Gap

And that's off the top of my head arc wise. We still need to deal with
>Hawkeye Mihawk vs Zoro
>Geat Blue
>Laboon promise
>Shanks

NO WAY THAT'S GETTING ALL TIED UP IN 5 YEARS
>

I'm of the opinion that OP just won't ever end. Oda will die and it will still run. There's just so much more money in it than any other manga, including Naruto and Bleach.

Watch Oda having wasted 20 years just extending arcs as long as possible to make as much money, end up fucking up the whole thing just to end it quickly and retire, disgusting tbqh.

Didn't Oda give another timeline of One Piece being completed days ago or something?

she cute

HxH is entry level but that doesn't mean that it's bad
netflix wants to shill anime so of course they are going to post the best or most popular material the medium has to attract customers and make them stay
they aren't going to shill boku no pico and is this order a rabbit

I'm girl(male) just like my favorite character Eren Yeager

Yeah it's impossible. Plus I think he'll have to slow down eventually, he's at the age Miura was when Berserk releases rapidly slowed to a halt.

Miura being a lazy hack that got sick of writing his story isn't the standard for aging mangaka.

10 pages are enough for a shit show like HxH. If I read it, i've already lost.

It really sucks to just be a regular fan of HxH and have to deal with all these pasta "not a battle shounen" retards who can't get over themselves. What happened to just liking the manga?

We don't even have much room to talk, the guy goes on hiatus all the time

I wonder who has been on the Golgo 13 ride the longest

300 characters of pseudo-intellectual babble where some spic unironically tries to argue a manga published in a shounen magazine is not a shounen is not worth reading.

This really is like Tokyo Ghoul when Ishida made Kaneki look more and more feminine

Naruto is a cash cow. They refuse to let that go hence the Kaguya bullshit with the end of Naruto, the Gaiden and Boruto: A Naruto movie.

Bleach got away from the shitty sequel series because Kubo REFUSED to end Bleach on Aizen and wrap up the Quincy.

If he wanted a shitty sequel with Kauzi, he would have ended it with Aizen, had the final chapter be the way it is save for the Juha Bach bits and then used the Quincy as a springboard for Kazui: Bleach GT.

I can see it now:
>Yhwach and Quincy are introduction arc antagonist
>Then we get arc about the Noble families
>arc about Hell
>Zanpakutou rebellion reboot arc
>Aizen breaks out of Muken with Muken inmates
>Finds some way to break into Spirit Palace
>Kazui has to defeat ALL OF THIS and Aizen via Gohan to Goku with Cell.

I cringe at the thought of this.

>Bleach got away from the shitty sequel series
Because the anime got cancelled earlier.

If the anime was still running, it definitely would have kept going with the sequel series

You know, the people that unironically use the term pseudo-intellectual are typically are the most insecure

Anime got cancelled because of filler arcs that Perriot ran into the ground while interrupting the Arrancar Saga

Manga ended because Kubo got his left tendon shattered and had to have surgery.

Or maybe they just can critically evaluate others ideas and realize that the inconsistent buzzword-filled ramblings of a drunken spic 13 year old aren't worth reading

The hunterfags flying into a rage because a spade was called a spade don't seem very secure to me

>Devoted his entire life to one story

kind of wish we did get a Kazui series when I see that image

Why do I get banned for one little troll thread yet Hunterfags shit up the entire board and jannies don't do shit?

>kind of wish we did get a Kazui series when I see that image

DON'T BE FOOLED. The reason nobody shits on Kazui and Ichika is BECAUSE they aren't focused on.

Notice how whenever the kids are focused on (like Boruto, Gohan, Pan, etc) they either wind up becoming shit or are shit depending on who is writing them.

They are only focused because "I'm the kid of the MAIN CHARACTER! LOOK AT MEEEE!!!"

What was the troll thread?

You just act like it's normal for a mangaka to go on extended hiatuses when they get older. This idea comes from people who somehow mostly just read HXH, Berserk, and Inoue's series. Oda already takes a week off occasionally and I doubt it'll get any worse than that. Oda's also nearly a decade younger than all three of those.

Because Hunterchads are actually providing well written arguments and proof with visual evidence to support their claim, if you think it's troll posting then you're delusional.

Right.
Why, for arguing to the contrary? Are you unable of telling pasta from actual post or do you lump them together because it's easier to process?

>nobody shits on Kazui and Ichika
Shippers do

Hunterchads repeat the same arguments that have already been refuted and don't even know the definitions of certain terms.

>6 minutes to come up with a 1 word response
I thought hunterchads had to be super geniuses to appreciate Togashi's subtle nihilism and wicked sense of humor? What's happening here?

>Refuted.
Just because you claim it has happened doen't mean it did.
Refuted where ? This thread ? I don't see a single post mentioning good arguments to refute our points.
Other threads ? It's all the same or even worse, stop lying.

Sometimes, one word is enough and I'm doing other things.

>Togashi's wicked sense of humor.
Imagine outing yourself this easily...
Stop talking about Manga that you didn't read faggot.

O

MY

SEVEN

QUIRKS

Your theory is also right. There's also the O my rubber Nen thing which absolutely destroyed any possible chance of having normal threads afterwards

Imagine digging your own grave.

Well they're only human, decades of being hunched over drawing, stressed out trying to meet deadlines and subsisting on shit food and no time for exercise ages you faster than most humans. I won't be surprised if Oda slows down in his late forties like those three did. He's already the exception keeping up the pace he does.

This entire thread biting this hard.

These faggots,are you baiting or do you really think it's not a battle shonen?

People forget that Togashi already worked himself halfway to death with the entirety of YuYu Hakusho and the first half of HxH, he's 53 with health issues from drawing manga for too long, the hiatus is unfortunate but it is what it is, he's not going to kill himself over a manga.

People complaining about hiatuses A. have never worked as hard as mangaka do for even a day and B. don't have anything to do other than read manga, which is why it feels like a lifetime to them whereas I catch up once a year and usually have 10 more chapters to read.

>obvious bait for hunterfag kiddos
>it's super effective
yikes

Chances are it might come back this fall, making it a year gap which i can live with

Complaining that a series you like barely comes out doesn't mean you don't have anything else to do. At the very least someone could read other manga that actually does come out. And Togashi especially even when he does come back greets you with introducing a bunch of more characters and panels filled with words instead of art.

Based Togashi dropping 20 chapters last year just to take a 1 year hiatus.

As I said it's just pseudo-intellectual babble. I mean look at this shit
>Not battle shonen
Wrong right off the bat. There are fights and conflicts get solved through those fights. There's an arc where Gon and his boyfriend go to Heavens Arena to train and get money. The final test of the Hunter Exam tested fighting ability. The ant arc is concluded by Gon and friends infiltrating the palace to distract the 3 guards in battle while Netero battles the King, with attempts of diplomacy being waved off.
>they're just vehicles for cartoon fights, not a realistic, believable story
Excellent way to describe the current arc. In the end its just niggers with super powers killing each other. HxH is just more nuanced
> political maneuvering and indirect subterfuge
Absent in Hunter Exam, Zoldyck arc, YorkNew, and Greed Island
>Direct confrontations devoid of subterfuge is basically what fighting shounen is
and the majority of HxH

Do hunterfags even read HxH? Do they even LIKE HxH? If you're asking me they're just accelerationist moefags trying to get mods to ban shounen threads forever.

That's like the equivalent of kaguya asspulling out of Madara.

I mean, that's the whole HxH manga though, if you aren't enjoying these latest chapters I don't see how you enjoy anything else, when the latest stuff is some of the best.

If you're not invested in the current arc then you're obviously just going to see everytime he introduces a new Prince's faction and their followers, as he did with Camilla and Morena Prudo, as "a bunch of more characters" when it's much more interesting than that, the art is actually really good in the current arc and there are like 3 pages with a wall of text that you have to go through but that's it, cherrypicking them out of 200+ pages in the last 10 chapter batch is a bit unfair.

High IQ

>being so insecure about what shows you watch you need to respond to bait threads
does it matter? anyone who has read the series in OP knows young hxh-fags would be triggered by it being lumped into standard shounen

Atleast you read it, unlike literally most people here.

Togashi's art has been no better than average for quite a while now.

Except the bomb/Netero's Bodhisattva was hinted at near the start of the arc but hey, the brainlet meme always gets more fuel to the fire

>Implying its even him drawing it now.

Guarantee he just draws the a few things, writes the text walls then his assistants do the rest.

He draws the characters, assistants does the backgrounds, no different than Miura or Inoue

It was a simple little wojak face.

speedreaders have always had the opinion of togashi's art being simple. his linework has always been top-shelf, though he's been minimalistic or even spartan in his layouts

The average person who posts that Togashi is a bad artist doesn't even know what minimalism or layouts are.

Attached: Togashi on Manga Artistry.png (651x156, 110K)

>minimalism
Like bleach?

None. I don't watch those kinds of shows anymore. I even dropped BnHA and Attack on Titan years ago. Thankfully, I learned to be part of those who were ahead of the pack and enjoyed a series before it became too cool and popular to enjoy.

Togashi's hardly the only mangaka with a minimalist style. I just don't find it particularly appealing and maybe it's just the long time since I've read the earlier chapters but even when it's not scribbles (which mostly stopped after the last arc) it still seems worse and less appealing to me.

The anatomy can be really horrific at points too. And I don't mean stylistic choices with the designs I mean the bodies literally just change panel to panel for no reason. Its schoolboy errors like that breaking my immersion trying to read HxH

I mean look at all the examples the "Hunterchads" have posted. If these are really the best panels then... no thanks.

honestly as much as I love HxH, the final arc in the anime is trash

What do you think was Bleach's main inspiration?

Attached: 1558288529631.jpg (640x948, 81K)

Based, really only the artistically illiterate assume mere replication counts as art. That's why they gush over frauds like Asano transposing google images for cityscapes

Saint Seiya?

That's just obfuscation, the power system definitely in based on Saint Saiya but The Lost Shinigami arc shows how much he aped from YYH. Even the SJ editorial staff rejected Bleach because of its similarities

any mangaka who has been illustrating as long as togashi and whoever made bleach are bound to have developed excellent penmanship. what you prefer is mostly down to taste or nostalgia.

show me some bad anatomy from hxh please. he has koalas and lobsters as characters and calls them "ants" for fucks sake.

Asano only puts real effort into characters. calling him a fraud just outs you as immature

of course he does when it's the only actual work he commits to

finding a way to automate or remove work where you have no inspiration or original ideas to communicate is just good work ethics and being honest towards your readers.

One Piece but it's not guilty.

>All these homo times homocucks seething at such basic bait
I suppose the OP worked like a charm, but I can't agree with its basic premise. What is there to feel guilty about if you read any of those that doesn't extend to anime as a whole?

Shows how ignorant you truly are. Hamlet actually has the highest amount of fight scenes out of Shakespeare's most prominent plays.

They're all guilty pleasures. But I genuinely like the early stories for Naruto/bleach/OP and later parts of HxH.

They literally just sprout off about random shit they think is intellectual but haven't actually read. And it's always Shakespeare, moby dick, and the great gatsby usually for some reason

Not even shitting you a bunch of hxh subreddit mods got on the Yea Forums model team and I think at least one MHA one. There was a post about it a ways back. It's part of the reason the entire board has become one giant shonen circlejerk and why all the "THE GREAT DEBATE" "NOW THAT THE DUST HAS SETTLED" bait threads get ignored

>hxhqueer
>also a fan of monogatari

I don't feel guilty about anything I enjoy.

It's kind of like the "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is an art film and too smart for people" thing, it started off as a joke but newfags took it seriously and started parroting it to fit in.

The entire arc is one long battle with breaks, it's a war.

>There's literally no major battles for 40+ chapters now.
This doesn't disqualify Hunter x Hunter from being a battle shonen, user, what the fuck? There were a bunch of fights in the previous arcs, and it's still being published in a Shonen magazine. By every definition, it's a battle shonen. Just because it's growing its beard a little doesn't mean it's not a battle shonen, what the fuck is wrong with you?
