Bleach was pretty great in the beginning. A cool Urban fantasy about samurai fighting evil spirits, Ishida was cool, Chad wasn't useless, the school kids were part of the character drama. Even the anime was good, had a great soundtrack

thats Trunks

>>
>>78837245
Yeah, I dunno, I think I'm just bound to never be fully satisfied. I believe Kubo went on the record of saying something like "Well if you can do it better, show me" in regards to criticisms about Bleach's plot direction.

It started off pretty neat, though. I don't know where I expected it to go, but I'm tired of main protags having a secret forbidden mixed bloodline of ancient power.

Ichigo was a weird kid with an odd ability that got sucked into something larger-than-life (or larger-than-death) and through his sheer bullheadedness found himself becoming better at adapting to the bizarre circumstances than anyone expected.

Okay, this works.

Now he's essentially just another Naruto with super special blood or some shit.

japan has a blood line culture though. not as prominent as it was before ww2 but its still there for pretty much anything important. (western culture still has it too but to a lesser extreme).
no one can achieve true greatness on their own merits, it has to be because they were the illegitimate bastard child of some great powerful guy rather than through their own merits.

After the Soul Society the plot should've stayed in the human world for most of the time having the Arrancar come to them, THEN go to Hueco Mundo. Hueco Mundo was too long and all those enemies were wasted because they werent planned to stick around like the Soul Reapers

>>78837519
That is sadly the case with Jump style Manga. They either get canceled and have shitty rushed endings over half a dozen chapters or live long enough to become unrecognizable trash. You can't really blame them because they spend all this time making a really great story good enough to get them published but eventually what they planned comes to an end and they have to keep coming up with endless content until it becomes so unpopular it gets canceled, all while still doing 16+ pages a week.

I didn't even know stories could end until I started reading books 8 years ago. I grew up on endless manga with shitty endings and comics that were just tiny arcs over and over again.

This is why i'm surprised One Piece has lasted. Even at its lowest points I dont think any part of One Piece could be considered bad, except maybe Fishman Island. Everyone but Hody and Vander Decken were completely forgettable with shit designs
>>
>>78837873
Admittedly, some manga do the long game well. JoJo manages to keep things fresh, though that's probably because they change characters for every part, so far I'm loving the hell out of Berserk, which stays good by never updating.
I think the big problem with Shonen Manga is that the longer it goes on the more powerful the characters become, to the point where anybody that doesn't start revealing secret demon heritage becomes irrelevant.
You see a similar thing happen with some Western long running comics like TWD and Invincible, though they suffer more from a problem where a lack of status quo becomes a status quo.
>>
>>78837986
Jojo doesnt count. Each part is a completely different story. Berserk is still good but I miss the grounded dark feudal fantasy feel that slowly went away after the Lost Children arc

The show as a whole over the 5 years has done a huge amount of homages and references, some more subtle than others
S5 had background references to planes, trains and automobiles, 'lucy's' psychiatry booth with a bunch of peanuts looking characters walking past and a not so subtle namedrop of 'winter is coming'
Also a character parodying lady gaga with digital music and autotune and everything if that counts as a homage

This is why Rurouni Kenshin is the best Shonen Jump manga. Power levels are kept to suspension of disbelief-level normal, good fight scenes that actually have lasting impacts on the health and emotions of the characters, and the series lasts only 28 volumes. Enough for all the main characters to get fully developed and for all the loose ends in the story to be tied up, but not padded past its usefulness. It was written with a clear end in mind, so it's able to keep a good pace all the way through.

I think the only other SJ maga that has not completely fallen apart over its length has been One Piece. Mostly because it set up a world Oda could fill in later.
Naruto and Bleach have fucked up because they started with limited premises they then threw out because the author could not expand beyond what he had set up, which was not much.
Compare the clumsy escalation of power level in Naruto and compare that to how One Piece completely circumnavigates that issue by making characters almost impossible to compare for the most part.
Not to mention the rise of the Strawhat Pirates from provincial nobodies to minor players on the world stage over years with an ever-expanding network of interlinked pirate crews and their fates, marine command, the revolutionary army, world government and many more.

Because heroes are selfless people who will share their meat with others. And he won't share that meat with nobody.
Naruto started with super-powered ninjas. And then just devolved into beam-spamming sayans.
>>
>>78843294

Yeah it's a shame that it's non-existant in US but that's because he shot himself in the foot by naming 90% of the characters after western bands and songs.

Also because it's whacky as shit. I love JoJo.

It;s just depressing how even if the series is brought more to the states, it has to be heavily altered just to make a bunch of musician's lawyer's happy, like the name of their fucking band or song is going to steal money away from them. It's so frustrating that America will never have Jojo in it's complete form, if at all.

Nope, although a lot of episodes were done by Japanese studios, and there were later, Japanese exclusive seasons. The original cartoon was an american production, albeit one based on Japanese toys(with character designs largely done by a Filipino).

I can understand if they are forced to change Stand names, I mean I think it's fucking stupid to begin with that copyright law is so assbackwards that even the names can never be used, but changing character names, like fucking Polnareff, I mean yeah it's a reference to the musician, but his whole name isn't the musican's name. You can't fucking copyright a last name.

Theres no denying DIO is fun, but Kira is just a better villain. DIO will always be a great villain and character, but he is pretty white bread in terms of Jojo villains, and the only person probably lower than him is Diavalo, and only because a villain you have to take a jackhammer to to understand is kind of a shitty villain.
>>
>>78844293

Honestly, I can't think of a single Jojo villain that isn't solid gold.

I love TBFP still. They're not as good as they used to be but occasionally, they'll put out a video or a series I'll enjoy.

Recently, I liked Matt and Liam's Devil's Third playthrough.

Also this is going to sound autistic, but I hate it when they play fighting games and they go so deep into the lore. Like, to me it's just like...who cares?

But it's hilarious to hear a good clusterfuck of a fighting game plot just like tekken's national past time of throwing sons into ravines
>>
>>78851441
I'm not pretending it's obscure, I just never expected it to show up in a cartoon. Cartoons weren't sneaking in homages hardly at all back when Billy and Mandy first aired.

And in terms of the general viewing audience for the show, it is pretty obscure.
>>
>>78851441
The lazy way to reference Dune is to throw a sandworm in an episode.
It's pretty surprising because no one references the Bene fucking Gesserit.

>>78851164
The pacing of the final arc wasn't so hot. It felt like it deserved more build up and more payoff, because it didn't feel very hype at the end. Never mind that they didn't win, I can stomach that. It didn't feel like the kind of moment the whole series was building towards.

I honestly didn't know there were people who cared *that* much about fighting game plots outside of Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and Tekken I guess.

Of any video game genre, the plot of fighting games has always been something that mattered the least to me. I have never given that much of a fucking shit about what was going on while playing a fighting game.

Guess I'm just different.

>>78837973
Some of the recent chapters feel like fluff. They aren't building that ending mystery well enough, and a lot of times I fail to care about the struggles of the people on the island they land on.

Doflamingo's arc go pretty intense there though. Minus Luffy's new level of powerswell.

Dune. The box holds a needle that forces you to feel extreme pain and your not supposed to remove your hand to show that you are stronger than your instincts, which is why Mindy loses points for pulling out her hand. The white robe is n't supposed to mean anything.

Drawn Together had a Fat Albert thing, plus 100 more references. The final episode had a crowd shot with dozens of old characters.

Panty and Stocking was actually inspired by Drawn Together. They couldn't actually put as many characters from other shows into theirs, though - that's what did the first episode of Osomatsu-san in, because Japan has less parody law.

REAL and Vagabond have been going for over 15 years now and are amazing. That author is just great though, he also created Slam Dunk - probably the best shounen manga of all time. It subverts the trope of the main character doing something for a girl so well.

Basically when Slam Dunk starts, the MC starts playing basketball only to impress a girl. But by the time the manga is ending, he barely cares about her anymore and is almost entirely focused on basketball. Plus, it's got obvious comparisons of Rodman, Jordan, and Ewing and other NBA players.

The Clone Wars really liked to do homages in the later seasons, but here's an early season example: the Zillo Beast.

Design and name loosely reference Godzilla. The plot of the Zillo Beast two-parter is almost exactly King Kong, except instead of being consumed by some sort of lustful desire for a human woman, the Zillo Beast is consumed with raw hatred for Palpatine after Palpatine treated it contemptuously in captivity.

I'm currently rewatching bleach (I had a dream set in the first arc despite having watched it like 6 years ago, woke up and figured I'd give it another shot)

It's painfully obvious that they establish a colourful cast of fun characters, intending to use them, but then forget about them because they have a super cool shadow the hedgehog protagonist with a super awesome big sword holy shit lets have everyone job to big him up.

There are a lot of legitimately awesome characters, Chad is interesting with interesting abilities that are never gone into, Ishida despite being an autistic fuckboy had a pretty unique ability set and backstory and would have made for a good rival character.

But no, fuck them cos they're not the fucking gingernut designate protagonist.

More like the shit.

It's simultaneously a million callbacks for people in their 30s and goofy fun for kids.

It's like Animaniacs, although with less production and characters.

no way, kira was the best. that whole arc topped everything jojo. you got the one joe who has this obscure ability going against kira who has this insane and seemingly invincible ability. he wins against all odds, and kira did have a questionable lifestyle. dio is just a dick because he was an orphan boy.

Clearly fucking nothing.
Jojo didn't invent fist blows like that, god I hate how bad the Jojo fanbase has gotten.
It's like when you faggots see anyone with an outfit like picture related you think LOLJOTARO
Or like when you're ignorant about the fact ORA was a Japanese battlecry long before Jojo was around

Never was really that heavy into Bleach, but I'm sad the dynamic between Rukia, Ichigo, Orihime, Chad, and Uryu were lost. Especially Chad his personality and design are uncommon for most "foreigner" characters in anime

Eh, no worse than ninjas or bandits. They don't follow the law but have their own ethic code- like many pirates actually did back in the day (Yes I know, not all of them but still)
>>
>>78848037
Well there are loads of exceptions really. We're just talking about Shonen Battle manga - the kind of manga that are meant to last years and years and have weekly shows.

But SJ also has stuff like FMA, Soul Eater, Death Note and Bakuman - where they set out to have a complete story and tell it.
>>
>>78843430
dont they reference Kill Bill in the same episode?
>>
>>78848477
That last punch up is straight outta JoJo- Its an iconic scene.

I like SU, I do, but I think they cross over from "homage" to "rip off" far too often
>>
>>78852317
haha jesus christ this is so fucking silly.

i remember reading the first chapter more than ten years ago and sharing them with hs friends and getting them hooked to bleach.

what a wasted potential
>>
>>78857836
I agree with some fans being way to "JOJO DID IT FIRST" but no other show has done the Oraoraora rush before Jojo, and it is a series that has spawned a lot of cultural references. Stroheim inspired Guile for example
>>
>>78844040
DIO is how he is called in part 3 because he wanted to drop his father's name and because no one really knows his last name by that time.
Part 1 Dio is still called Dio Brando in all media including games.

Shit dude, you know why One Piece works? Cause that shit is planned years and years in advance. I remember when the writer showed off the villains designs for the next 10 years worth of arcs

>>78856361
Well technically, Aizen did that, so Aizen is the OCDOUGHNUT creator of Ichigo
>>
>>78858756
That was from the movie, wasn't it?
>>
>>78859019
Actually wrong. Oda himself says he has pretty much nothing except a few important parts planned out. The only thing he absolutely planned out since the start is the very end of One Piece, and has done multiple interviews where hes said what keeps him going and keeps him interested in working on One Piece is his intense desire to draw the ending.

Naruto is just as complicated

Not going into all the details, cause even I don't know them. Naruto and Sasuke are both descendants from...well ninja gods from outer space, pretty much. So they both have super god chakra, which allows them to use every element possible, and unique elements only they can do, and combining his god chakra with his Kyuubi chakra, Naruto can enter Sage of the Sixth Paths mode, which gives him access to every single tailed beast, and a bunch of other crazy bullshit. He can also release the Kyuubi from his body to fight alongside him as a giant chakra monster, or take control of the Kyuubi's body to use his size and strength.

As for Sasuke, he also has the Rinnengan, which is supposed to be even better than the Sharingan, and gives him all kinds of god powers just like Naruto.

It was still pretty dark and brutal even after Guts acquired his JRPG party, the troll arc was filled with gore and monster rape, and then there's Ganishka's demon city, which was just all kinds of fucked up. It wasn't really until after they killed him that it all started to soften up for real.
>>
>>78859484
Shit will get dark, might even get darker than ever before soon enough, what with all the God Hand running around, corrupting the world freely. Shit, Falconia, despite being the capital of happiness and joy, has a giant dome Colosseum full of Apostles having 24/7 bloody fights with each other and monsters, so they can stay content.
