how do you get away with something like this

Shoto is a poor man's Zuko. I still don't understand him as a character. His whole family is underwritten.

Nobody gives a shit about your American cartoon wannabe anime

Because nobody gives a shit

And yet, you posted.

No one cares, Zuko has more character development than the entire MHA roster combined.

Because Shoto isn't a cuck.

Yeah, I mean who would do that, just LIE, right? NO ONE would EVER lie when accused of plagiarism, right?
Right, Swery?

how would that prove he isn't lying?
All Might is clearly inspired by Superman, so why couldn't Shoto be inspired by Zuko?

no

Cuz he's never seen avatar.

And Aizawa is an obvious ripoff of Kakashi, nobody cares about green Naruto.

As far as I know Horikoshi really really likes Venom and Carnage from Spiderman.

zuko is better than any anime protagonist ever. Prove me wrong.

Zuko fucked and impregnated his insane sister, is Shoto gonna do that?

Fuyumi isn’t insane and is more bustier

Wasn't Azula around 12 years old?

14.

14/15

Ahh, okay.

This reads as one of those fan made power fantasy comics where the author's self insert one ups the main cast.

It is. The author hates Zuko.

You're not allowed to use him. Pick someone else.

Well shit. That's fucking sad. Can you imagine hating an ink drawing so much you draw your own ink drawing bashing the ink drawing you hate?

To be fair, he'd be better off fucking Suki.

Should they have made a more wholesome comic series about healing Azula featuring Zuko, his mother, Ty Lee, and Mai instead of making a yandere Azula that wants to "help" her oniisan?

I thought they got back together.

That means you’ll piss off the sokkafags who think he should fuck every girl. God I hate comedic relief characters.

Funny thing is they broke up when this happened so it’s not really cucking when they’re not together at that point.

Dude, they don't even say he gets with Suki in Korra so them banging probably never actually happened because Sokka never fucking had kids.

Suki's like a warrior nun. Who even cares at this point?

In the comics she and Zuko interact and they actually felt friendly unliked the forced garbage with Sokka and Suki, with Suki only being the runner up because Yue died.

>sokkafags who think he should fuck every girl.
What? Why? Sokka was an absolute terrible character that did nothing of value even after getting that super mystical blade.

>HAH I have your leftovers, Zuko! Your cum is going to be all over my dick and she's going to visualize me as you while I fuck her!

Because Sokka is funny. That’s it. Every porn pic has him as a chad harem master. It’s sad.

He's the smart one in the group who comes up with strategies.

Shoto is Cuter. Fuck off Yea Forums

Even in a thread about him, shouto isnt talked about most of the time.

He acts like the token black man of the group who is also a clown. Him suddenly being a master strategist was 50 shades of retarded.

This, it's sad isn't it?

Because anytime someone talks about Shoto you have everyone calling him a self insert.

What do you expect? He's very bland, lacking personality and he acts dense but not in an endearing way.

He's been that way since Season 1.

what meaningful conversation is going to come from a bait thread user?

>Bland

I find it refreshing a stoic character can represent being the serious straight man most of the time to his cookie cutter clown college classmates

>Lacking in personality

Looks like someone didn't read into his character. There a ton of subtle faces into his quiet and non chalant exterior, but here is a rebuttal:

His personality is tormented and stoic on the outside but is subtle and complex on the inside. He's rude, blunt, and snarky as a result of being around over the top characters, that's at his worst. At his best, he's as kind and compassionate and selflessly determined to grow stronger as much as Deku and Bakugou only difference is he's more humble than Bakugou and more cautious than Deku about it.

He's possibly the most human character of the main 4 core characters.

So he's more than just bland, stoic and angsty, unless you are saying he doesn't have to right to be considerably sad and broken.

>he acts dense but not in an endearing way.

Better than Bakugou and Mineta as humor goes.

Zuko thought he was in the wrong all the way until the second half of season 3 and he only adopted the "fuck daddy" attitude after he realized his dad was a psycho when he said he would burn the Earth Kingdom to the ground.

These are the same writers that made Koh, the face stealer and turned him into a character that has mommy issues.

Let's not forget that they made Zuko Mom a complete fucking hypocrite

What annoys me about his extra thick dense head is he's suppose to be intelligent and capable of analyzing and reading the social setting of the location. Instead we get retarded shit like the mock interview.

The scar is on the wrong side.

That's what your mom said after I hit her and liked.

Hori is just making this story up as he goes and forgets consistency for these characters. Especially Shouto, who he still hasn't learned how to over come his weakness in close quarters after his mock test with momo against aizawa.

Sometimes I geniually think Mike and Bryan weren't the true spearheads when it came to Avatar.

The auteur theory looking pretty damn strong.

>Shoto isn't an elemental team rocket
No he’s just an elemental jobber
>Daddy issues resolved early on with more complexity than just a simple "fuck daddy"
What do you mean “more complex”? Zuko starts off loving his father and then realizes as he grows up he was abused, whereas turdto starts off hating his father and then grows nicer towards him for no good reason other than his dad being sorry.
>Also has ice, making his powers more complex than a glorified tinderbox
Zuko actually had to learn martial arts moves and only had one element to fight a guy wielding four elements. Turdto is literally the only guy other than OFA/AFO who has two quirks. “B-but fire and ice are related because they’re the opposite”, NO. Maybe if his power was to control temperature, or reverse temperature, but no, he literally just creates giant flames and glaciers out of nothing.

Yeah, no.
Shouto didn't forgive him, he just moved on with life.
>had one element to fight a guy wielding four elements
And Shouto has 2 elements to fight against potentially every power that may come out of Horikoshi's ass, plus explosions from the personified menstruation that is bakugo and LITERALLY the power of the protag from Deku.
>out of nothing.
Never read the manga, eh?
>Come on now

It's called heritage.
It goes beyond just your dad being an ass, you are expected a shitload more than anyone else just because he exists. There's that aspect also.

>He's possibly the most human character

This honestly needs to stop. Character feeling human is such a weak praise. Any character with decent characterization feels human

You wanna talk about heritage? Zuko had the entire Fire Nation's sins to pay for as well as those of his great grandfather, grandfather, father, and sister. Todoroki's family dynamic has nothing on Zuko's. (Not yet at least. BnHA still isn't finished so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.)

Seething herotard

>>elemental jobber
>And that sooooo helps Zuco's case. Yup.
It literally does, name one time Zuko jobbed. Reminder that he only ever lost fights to the Gaang.
>no good reason other than his dad being sorry.
>Yeah, no.
>Shouto didn't forgive him, he just moved on with life.
Bad writing then, people with abusive parents move on by getting the fuck out of there. They don’t intern with their abusive dad.
>had one element to fight a guy wielding four elements
>And Shouto has 2 elements to fight against potentially every power that may come out of Horikoshi's ass, plus explosions from the personified menstruation that is bakugo and LITERALLY the power of the protag from Deku.
Two more than everyone else, faggot! Don’t act like he’s underpowered when he has the third or fourth most powerful quirk in the series
>out of nothing.
>Never read the manga, eh?
I have, maybe you haven’t.
>Shoto's Quirk gives him dual pyrokinesis and cryokinesis, divided between his left and right sides, respectively. The appendages on his right side can drastically lower temperatures of anything they touch, enough so to create large waves of ice. The limbs on his left side generate heat and allow Shoto to create and shoot streams of fire. Until taken to his bodily limit, neither has any visible effect on his body.
Despite what this idiot mangaka thinks, lowering and raising the temperature doesn’t magically cause giant flames and blocks of ice to form.

>It literally does, name one time Zuko jobbed. Reminder that he only ever lost fights to the Gaang.
And his sister, and his uncle, and pirates, and the cold, and himself. and sparky sparky boom man, and thats not even mentioning all the times he lost to the Gaang to the point that his presence ends up being "notto disu shitto again"
But that's what made him end up being such a good character. Somehow.

Everyone is cool with Aizawa being introduced as Kakashi, Kota being ripped from the shota in the Zabuza arc, among other things. He's copied Naruto more than anything else.

Jobbing =/= losing brainlet. Jobbing is just losing to show how strong the other character is. Didn’t job to Iroh, never even fought Azula 1v1, didn’t job to pirates. Is an angry loser who loses often? Yes. Jobber? No

Let's hear what Dabi has to say.

>only ever lost fights to the Gaang.
To which he lost all of them. There, done.
Todoroki wrecks shit up whenever he shows up.
>people with abusive parents move on by getting the fuck out of there
Not when they have a pair of balls.
Shouto is above his dad's harassement and is using him for his own gain, not his. He has massive balls for that.
>Don’t act like he’s underpowered when he has the third or fourth most powerful quirk in the series
Don't think that he can't get fucked up really easy due to quirk mechanics and potential OP quirks. Keep in mind he strives to be #1 and I'd argue there are at least 5 other quirks that makes his look like an air conditioner.
>I have, maybe you haven’t.
Remember that quirks use bodily functions then? Like Yaomomo using fat? Shit ain't endless, far from it.
>Fire and ice physics
And fire also doesn't magically propel you into flying. It's manga, not a Neil DeGrasse documentary.
>Nigger

Which is probably why it also attracted the toxic Naruto fan base.

Losing fights isn’t jobbing

If you think a guy staying with his abusive father has balls you’re either retarded, coping, or joking. Probably coping

>potential quirks
you’re crying about theoretical fights that haven’t happened yet. He’s an overpowered jobber

It’s extremely obvious that the mangaka doesn’t follow the bodily functions rule except when it’s convenient. Explain to me how one human has enough calories stored up in him to pull this off. Fatgum actually has to get fat to store up his quirk (which is nowhere near as strong as Turdto’s).

>it’s a manga so it doesn’t have to be scientific
It does if you’re trying to explain to me why it makes sense that he has two quirks for no reason whatsoever

>enough calories stored up in him to pull this off.

>muh pole

>Losing fights isn’t jobbing
Even then, how is Zuko less of a jobber when he gets bitch slapped everyday by Aang, his sister, his father and the entirety of the fire nation?
Shouto breezed through everyone on the sports festival losing only to bakugo because he still refused to use fire and ice is a really bad match up against explosions.
>you’re crying about theoretical fights that haven’t happened yet.
They aren't hypothetical if they are sure to happen.
Again, he wants to be top hero, so not only he has to surpass every hero/villain we already seen, he has to topple every othe rone that may happen.
Keep in mind that we still have Bakugo, Deku, the entire league of villains, detnerat, and his own damn father to beat. That's only considering what we know up to now.
>It’s extremely obvious that the mangaka doesn’t follow the bodily functions rule except when it’s convenient.
As any other limiter in a power mechanic.
And not every quirk is based on fat, each quirk uses something different for their source. Shouto's haven't been specified, but it sure is efficient.
>It does if you’re trying to explain to me why it makes sense that he has two quirks for no reason whatsoever
How did Zuko get his bending again?

>Gary Stu jobber
He’s not a Gary Stu then.

Pretty much every character design in that show is a bastardization of another character from something else, inspired by a random frame or an amalgam.
Froppy is based off of the swimming captain from klk and ochako is based of a frame of mako sleeping from episode 1

>Even then, how is Zuko less of a jobber when he gets bitch slapped everyday by Aang, his sister, his father and the entirety of the fire nation?

>They aren't hypothetical if they are sure to happen.
As of September 19th 2019 these fights are all LITERALLY hypothetical. They are not sure to happen.
>Shouto's haven't been specified, but it sure is efficient.
Good to see that shouto’s wasn’t mentioned while Bakugo and Tits Girl had theirs mentioned. Very convenient that the author doesn’t explain the limits of his all powerful Gary Stue
>How did Zuko get his bending again?
Giant magical turtle fingered his ancestors millenia ago?
Not once have I brought science into this to defend Zuko, it’s a magical setting. You’re the one who tried to use science to explain Shouto and then cried foul when I told you the science was bullshit.

He is, he’s 90% perfect handsome double quirked nice guy who half the cast is sexually attracted to, and 10% percent jobbing to character of the week

Even using your retarded definition, that means he's not a Gary Stu user...

>This is 100% not what fucking happened you retard
Except it is when you boil it down to it.
>You’re delusional if you don’t think that Ice would be useful against an ability that revolves around sweat
And you are delusional Bakugou, knowing that, would let him get the ice anywhere near him.
Which didn't happen and he won.
Ice would only be good in that match up if Todoroki got close enough to freeze Bakugou. Otherwise he'd have plenty of time to dodge the ice with aerial moves. And guess what, close up fights are Bakugo's specialty.
>As of September 19th 2019 these fights are all LITERALLY hypothetical. They are not sure to happen.
Ok, so for the rest of the manga there won't be any more fights and He'll be immedialy crowned #1 uppon graduation.
The fights will happen, power escalation dictates that OP quirks are a given and He won't remain a background character for long.
>Good to see that shouto’s wasn’t mentioned while Bakugo and Tits Girl had theirs mentioned. Very convenient that the author doesn’t explain the limits of his all powerful Gary Stue
What is it that Deku uses?
"Oh he uses one for all!"
Yeah, but what powers it? The power of friendship?
Horikoshi only told a handful of those because of relevant mechanics that can be exploited, not because every single quirk we get we need a biology class.
>Didn't argue science
Oh rly?
I'll copy and paste your own post from :

>it’s a manga so it doesn’t have to be scientific (quoting myself)
It does (confirming it has to be scientific) if you’re trying to explain to me why it makes sense that he has two quirks for no reason whatsoever

Honestly, AtLA has some of the best fight choreography I've ever seen. Every little movement just feels so damn real and good to watch. It even got to the point that you could tell what was coming just by the consistency of what gestures they make. I'm glad the series ended at 3 seasons and didn't have any sequels, spin-offs, adaptations, or comics made about it.

It wasn't perfect, but the setting, fights, humor, and so much more really set it apart from other American cartoons, and it would definitely stand among the best similar Japanese shows. Too bad so much of Yea Forums hates anything remotely western.
