ITT: Mangaka who wrote themselves into a corner
Anthony Phillips
Lucas Turner
He should've just ended it after the epilogue to chimera ant. The rest of this shit could've just been a kurapika spinoff.
Caleb Anderson
It's over, let it go.
Chase Myers
Anthony Phillips
No Gon, No Buy
Also Miura wrote himself into a grave, so that should count too. Are long boat voyages the mangaka-killer?
Michael Green
There wouldn’t be any difference. We’d just have a Kurapika spin off with a 4 year hiatus instead of the main manga
Wyatt Thomas
it got way too complicated. he was writing a doctoral thesis, not a manga
Parker Fisher
Not even a hunter "chad" but I find the concept of Dark Continent to be very interesting. Too bad we never gonna get there.
Gavin Cooper
>t. i’m too retarded to understand basic shonen
Anthony Parker
I’m a student at Harvard so maybe it isn’t a level playing field, but I didn’t find the succession war to be hard to understand at all
Nathan Rogers
Based. Everything after the anime ends has been total shit. Hisoka v Chrollo was one of the biggest let downs in Manga history
Gabriel Myers
James Cook
yes just a basic shonen
Gabriel Peterson
I drive a big truck for a living and I didn't find it hard to understand either, you just need to pay attention and be able to remember basic information. But you have to understand that the average Yea Forumsnon is borderline retarded
Leo Baker
>literally just 14 sentences
>AHHH I CANT UNDERSTAND IT WHERE ARE THE FUNNY DRAWINGS
user please
Liam Perry
Not even. Black Clover was shit from the very start
Camden Parker
I dropped at bear gerbil racist. How does it end?
Jaxon Campbell
that's the final page
Jeremiah Moore
Whales emerge and bring in animal protein supply in form of the (mindless) fish.
Juan Thompson
>huge asspull
>b-but it's foreshadowed
>immediate hiatus
BC is so shit
David Stewart
The black market gets destroyed by the citizens of the city
Yahya turned down the offer though
Isaiah Gonzalez
>create a villain so strong you have to turn not just 1 but both of the protagonists into ninja jesus just to defeat him, effectively killing the narrative you spent the last 10 years and 600 chapters trying to build up
Liam Howard
the grandmaster of asspulls
Aaron Cooper
That’s the charm of Jojos you sperg, you aren’t supposed to take it seriously
Christopher Gutierrez
>just turn your brain off bro
William Thompson
I suppose you get annoyed that Saitama beats every one in one punch too? Or that OG Dragon Ball’s powerscaling is nonsensical?
Noah Jackson
wrong on both counts but I stopped watching after Z
Anthony Nelson
>spin-off
The whole premise of HxH is that there are 4 main characters. Kurapika is just as much the protagonist as Gon is
Liam Morris
Its not the amount of text but how ridiculous the style is. Its cringe chuuni writing, light novel trash
Julian Parker
Yeah, he could've just laid in bed for his back, let his wife type the words, let someone else draw illustrations and makea light novel starring kurapika with this story.
Liam Howard
>Yea Forumstards still argue about Hiatus X Hiatus all these years later
Caleb Allen
it's not hard to understand, just a chore to read. Shit barely progresses because he feels the need to narrate every single detail. There's a reason that ''show don't tell'' is important in visual medias
Charles Jackson
>replace him with alien to add some massive increase in stakes, only without any of the charisma
Like how. Why would you stack so much shit just to drop it all and make a way more nebulous and undefined successor.
Josiah Allen
He’s said in interviews that he has the rest of the story written out. He could even just write the rest of it out in a screenplay format and hand it off to someone else to draw
Easton Gray
man, even though this series ended like shit, I still fuckin loved it
Landon Foster
Did he seriously not plan ahead at all? Toriyama was better at ending his story and he was writing chapter to chapter after Frieza
Justin Robinson
Kishimoto should’ve ended the story after Pain
Alexander Rivera
Me too user. I just wanted to feel the fluff.
Jose Ross
>literally me
Aiden Evans
I don't think togashi is written into a corner with this at all. He can quickly eliminate plot complications by just killing off characters aggressively.
If anything, he's cornered more by expectations from the fanbase rather than the plot.
Alexander Jackson
I actually love the set up of all these fighting royal family members on the gigantic ship, the underground crime families, and the spiders and hunters all wrapped up in it. The only problem is that I wish Gon and Killua were on the ship to run around and explore it over being stuck with Kurapika in some room all the time.
Isaac Bell
As an alum, I find you to be a total retard.
Jason Edwards
you guys should fight and post it on youtube
David Jenkins
I wish if people were going to make the 'Hunter x Hunter is too wordy' argument, not use the example where it being overexplained is literally the point.
Ryan Williams
>He should've just ended it after the epilogue to chimera ant.
to many unresolved plot points.
Luke Parker
Read Toriko to get your fix for the concept
Christopher Perry
You’re not an alum
Kevin Foster
>Kurapika is just as much the protagonist as Gon is
No. He even had his main character slot stolen from him by the middle of Yorknew.
Brandon Kelly
Mikoto Yamaguchi is a terrible writer who's had multiple series end because he had no idea how to properly resolve the mysteries and plots he set up... or at least it feels like he didn't.
Cameron Ward
Does anyone have that one shitty ecchi manga where the last page was half finished and had text something like "I have no intention of continuing this manga in any form"?
Matthew Diaz
>oneesama is translated as "sis"
Jeremiah Butler
user you are not about to tell me that fucking Leorio is in any way as much the protagonist as Gon is
Daniel Carter
Elijah Campbell
Oh like Hellsing the Dawn? I want more of trollycard...
Benjamin Nelson
>Don't read well crafted manga, consume wsj shonenshit
Jaxson Gonzalez
>well crafted manga
You need to have actual chapters to be a well crafted manga user, hiatus x hiatus hasn’t had one of those in years
Luke Lopez
He just ignores his corners.
>LOL it was just a coincidence. Not like there is any time manipulation going on which could be used to explain any one being sent back to the past. Nope just some random bloody guy who looks exactly like the protag and saves him in a place and time that only his mother and he would know.
Matthew Cooper
That doesn’t really hinder the story in any way. Nothing like Kishimoto or Togashi ruining their stories every arc
Jace Lee
>make your villain too strong with no weaknesses
>protagonist magically gets a new ability out of nowhere that "defies reality" and kills him anyway
Jordan Stewart
there are almost 400 chapters the fuck are you talking about
Luke Gutierrez
Welcome to jojo
Justin White
>Hisoka v Chrollo was one of the biggest let downs in Manga history
That fight was why i picked up the series.
Eli Myers
400 chapters that lead nowhere since Togashi won’t get off his ass
Henry Edwards
>kills the big anticipated antagonist
>revives him a few chapters later
