Historical anime/manga. Not even fantasy shit with elements reflecting certain historical periods, but actual historical personalities, events and timeframes, without any magic/super powers.

>How realistic are the fighting techniques depicted?
As realistic as Jesus leading an army of trolls and fucking up dragons, japanese sniper archer traps, japanese samurai alucard, elves, dwarves and magical oppai megane.

Also fuck you and your fucking dragons.

there are 4 other non-japanese jojo's.

Most JoJo's are non-japanese.

Half are english.

This really isnt a good reason to choose your favourite part.
>>
>>136410510
2 of which are in the 2 worst parts.

Being non-japanese doesn't mean squat.

>>136410298
I read that Araki had to fight tooth and nail with his editors to have the MC be British.
>>
>>136410580
Yep, he only made Jotaro japanese as a bargaining tool to allow him to do stuff that the editors weren't otherwise letting him.
>>
>>136410546
>two worst parts
you're talking about parts 5 and 6, right?
or 5 and 3?
>>
>>136410611
Honestly, 5 and 3.

6 is great. I love bittersweet endings.

Giorno and Jolyne.

hell, if your going to be snippy and say Jolyne is still half-japanese, despite being english raised. Giorno is still full non-japanese, with a british father (Dio/Jonathan) and an Italian Mother.

I remember one that was based off of a checkpoint up in the mountains. It was pretty edgy bit i think they did a good job at it. It had William Tell in it.

>"Theo, I have run out of ammunition. I'm going to ram this one. Good bye. We'll see each other in Valhalla." - Heinrich Ehrler's last transmission over the Squadron Radio Network before he rammed the B-24 bomber "Trouble in Mind," piloted by Captain John Ray, destroying both aircraft and killing himself. "Theo" refers to Theodor Weissenberger.

never actually read that much about german aces. Might have to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JitLr5D7LSI
Japanese aces were interesting because of the (relative) individuality they had from the rest of the war machine.

The thought of guts cutting through crowds of Muslim and PC activists just popped into my head

Jokes aside, doesn't change the fact that non-fantasy historical manga is practically non-existant.
