That's the catch 22 of the quality of japanese and asain media is that they are mostly consistently better than western media because a single author has the writing control (obviously publishers and studios interfere but it's less polluted) but the authors get burnt out working overtime by themselves which is why longer media benefits in the west from multiple writers keeping the energy fresher
An important thing to remember about DM is it was released monthly and not meant to be read all in one go.
It seems like it’s now more acceptable for manga to just end instead of being milked for profit for decades as the story continues to degrade. A story that ends in 2-5 years with a fully complete narrative also allows for mangaka to take a fucking break in between stories - Chainsawman was supposed to start back up again last December but the author’s still on a well-deserved hiatus, presumably living off the volume sales and anime licensing money.
True, though I think there is an overall decline in creativity as far as mainstream media goes, both in the west and east. It's a little too insular and self-referential.
So just the state of black guys? I like one piece but the die hard fans of those series are black dudes
I think they delayed it until after the anime to hype the manga up more.
I'm still working my way through the original series, and if there's any advice I can give a newcomer, it's this: if your version has them, do not watch the episode previews. They'll usually flat-out spoil major developments in the very next episode. Worse, the previews come before the ED, not after, so you'll need to skip over them instead of jumping to the next episode (unless you're fine with skipping the ED, you monster).
That's like asking some critic if Weathering With You or World of Tanks is salvageable in the heap of crap flaws that negate any pros of the product. To put it simply, Franxx is and was always shit and you should feel shame for liking it. The fact that it has so many flaws to even warrant a "fix" is like asking how to fix Southeast Asia. The answer is simple.
Someone sure doesn't like it it seems.
IIRC everything before Gundam SEED can be counted to have at least some spoilers at times in the previews, and I can't remember if SEED did or not. It's VERY common in older shows to spoil things in the preview, I think it was to keep the audience guessing on the "how does that happen then?" and make sure they didn't miss a week as a way of building hype.
I would have just told you to skip the series and watch the movies.
I would say it's also agreeable to skip most of ZZ and simply wki the plot. It starts out as a solid comedy, but that the snap back to war drama was too sudden and jarring. Very hard to take a bunch of kids piloting a carrier without adult supervision seriously.
I saw it and I ended up really liking it. Don't listen to ANN, it's a great show and some of the music is really good.
Unironically based. You are my new favorite person on this thread.
No shit ANN wasn't gonna like it. It's a fanservice show, of course they were gonna get butthurt over it.
