It’s funny you say that given MHA had All Might come back to fight with a random super OP mech suit that came out of nowhere and the last five chapters or so was just him beating AFO in a boring rematch where the latter became actually retarded since he had an EMP ability yet never uses it.
Don't forget that the writer just plain forgot about the traitor subplot
No the traitor plot for MHA was brought back, and handled in the dumbest way possible
Are you kidding me? Now I'm glad I gave up on it. All might has literally been dying since the first episode, that is just stupid.
Yep he just gets some magic mech suit that has everyone of the class a students quirks in it he told no one about even though it would’ve been useful too.
Absolutely hysterical, but it's the formality of it all that gets to me.
I remember having some complaints about what they did the KD in the spinoff but god damn this makes it seem like nothing in comparison.
And it wasn't even the electric boi with a clear split personality
Now that you mention it, the way Sukuna is handled is just as retarded. In the latest ark, he switches bodies by ripping a finger of off Itadori and force feed it to Pregumi. Which is something he could do all along. but because "reasons"", now it was the appropriate time. Also it's not even "bloodlines and shit", it's "the reality of the world is so cold and cruel that anyone could die at any minute, so I won't develop or explain shit". You're right, it's laziness.
Which in this case it's kind of nonsense since Gojo has mostly lost every fight he's ever been in because of his own arrogance.
Sad to see a business as old as Right Stuf getting killed off like this.
I vaguely recall them saying they would merge the two eventually last year but I guess most people assumed (hoped) CR would just scrap its store and deal everything through right stuf, but no everything has to be under one "Crunchyroll" brand so they just scraped the years of history like with funimation (as much as that was worth).
I mean, I get not liking modern shonen, but to say they don't have lasting appeal is just trying to be a downer. Demon Slayer was among the best selling manga in the world while it was running (I believe it was the manga that basically outsold the entire American comic books industry), and the anime is still going strong. MHA's popularity has held the entirety of its run. You may be right about Jujutsu; it never had the popularity of those two.
Sales don't really translate into lasting appeal, modern pop culture is filled with shit that broke sales records but disappeared from collective consciousness a minute later (Game of Thrones and Lost are the best examples). With Demon Slayer the start was great but each season became weaker and weaker, plus if it has generic shonen end then there isn't really any continuation possible.
In Demon Slayer's defense, it didn't shit itself down its own leg the way Game of Thrones did, and it didn't leave its audience unsatisfied and unfulfilled on purpose like Lost did.
At the end of the day, Accelerator and his loli he must protect is literally the only character arc in that show. I think Touma is a good guy and whatever, but he just sort of muddles around punching people for trying to fuck with the people around him and has no development at all and whatever backstory he had gets lost in him getting amnesia'd in the first few episodes.
I actually used to shop online at RightStufAnime for the last five years, so this blows. At least The Anime Corner Store is still a thing, since I can’t be asked to spend money on expensive shipping fees on the likes of Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
