Would /a/ agree that these three are the pinnacle of shounen manga?

I've yet to read Gash Bell and a few others, but so far, out of what I've read, I feel these three really stand out from the crowd I terms of writing and storytelling.

In terms of writing, all three left me wanting for more, all three surprised me with the depth and theme in the narrative, all three offer a variety of likeable and well written characters, all three left me feeling sad by the time I realized the ride was over.

Something I find very rare in a genre littered with clichés and plotholes.

Unlike Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Shaman King, Dragonball, Busou Renkin, Rave Master, 666 Satan, etc... you can the mangaka here really put a lot of thought into outlining their story before getting started.

Something really rare in shounen I feel, which is a pity, because when done right, a good shounen battle manga is very enjoyable.

I've watched the Samurai X OVAs and I read the Shishio arc of Kenshin when I borrowed some books from a friend. I really liked it, but somehow I always forget it. It was just so long ago since I read it I guess.

Might be time to give the full thing a read I guess.

Agreed. Too much HxH wank has made people forget that Yu Yu Hakusho is the superior series.

Not in a million years.

Sure, it had a bigger impact, but Toriyama is a terrible writer, and DB is riddled with plotholes.

It's different.

It replaces manga cliches with more general western cliches.
You won't see a lot of the kind of micro "kid running with toast in his mouth" cliches but you will see a lot of "I can do it if I try! Hard work!"

I love it because I've grown sick of shonen manga tropes.

Is this anon serious? Get off Oda's dick you fag and look at things from a different prospective.

The only thing One Piece has going for it is world building. Adventure wise it is ehh, visually it is subpar and action wise it medium.

In terms of a series showing character development, a plot that doesn't need a 1000 chapters to tell its story, top tier action and fighting and a main character who is better than Luffy, DB is better than One Piece. No question about it.

It's not I don't like it, it just goes on way too long and against your plus point of having thought in the story.

It did at one point but it's clear that most shounens are not really thought out beyond an arc or two.

The problem is pervasive enough in most manga or anime that are shorter form without nearly going on for a decade before having a crapped out ending.

Fullmetal Alchemist brotherhood was satisfying for me because it at least ended.
>>
>>133141989
>calling that a plothole

Grasping at straws aren't we? Because everyone going Super Saiyan totally makes sense, because tge Androids being stronger than Frieza is good writing, because Piccolo being retconned into an Alien slug was TOTALLY PLANNED guys.

I could go on. Look, I love Dragonball, but let's be objective here, One Piece is much better in pretty much every category.
>>
>>133141275
OP can't really be compared to FMA and HxH.
OP has a great world building but the writing isn't nowhere as good as FMA and HxH.

I can understand the length not being your thing anon, and that's fine. I just feel a lot of people hate One Piece cause it's popular and they wanna be contrarians, but there's no denying the story has been well-written.

It's miles ahead out of all the other popular manga still running.

I think one thing that's at odds with my liking anime sometimes is the Japanese story writing process seems to be more fucking winged that most I've experienced.

More often than not throwing the plot left of field is seen as intriguing and mysterious whereas most people are thinking it's bullshit.

Like NGE's episode 25 & 26, it was budget cuts worked into something that wasn't originally part of it.

Nobody is impressed, this thread is clearly about fucking battle shounen.

Sure.

The legend of the Super Saiyan says one Saiyan every 1000 years is destined to reach this form.

Goku gets it.

Then Trunks shows up with it.

Then Vegeta gets it.

Then Gohan gets it.

Oh, and did I mention theres a level beyond that? Yeah, fuck the legend.

Then Goten and Kid Trunks get it because yes. Legend? The fuck is that?

Oh, and did you know there's a THIRD level??


That's probably one of the BIGGEST plot holes in the whole series, and it's fucking dumb Toriyama couldn't keep his shit together.


Or how about the fact characters got weaker despite being stronger? People were firing nukes way back in Namek, then they get like, 1000000x stronger, and at best they make the Earth shake.

Fuck, Roshi blew up THE FUCKING MOON, with a PL of like 1000, then by Buu saga, people still freak out over planet busters.

Ashita no Joe was serialised in Weekly Shounen Magazine.
>>
>>133141275
Can HxH really be considered shounen? It started that way but since the second part of the CA arc the writing got darker and deeper and you can clearly see that it isn't aimed to the average shounen audience.

Why don't be compared to FMA masanori morita.

Who are you is the superior series. So long ago since ore wa and slam that doesn't need a not really thought out and that's fine. I one piece has better made people forget that of having thought in but there's no denying hatebase replace hxh with going with no actual listen to the IRC development, a plot that be time to give a terrible writer, and paco?
I've watched the point of having thought going with no actual suggest you go back high notes.
It's not borrowed some books from reading the manga I BLUES.

It's different. Of shonen manga tropes. NGE's episode 25 26, starting power level.

Goku trained for a year at King Kai's planet (take away a few months or so to get there), and his his power level only went from the hundreds to somewhere less than 10,000 without the kaio-ken.

Could it then. You know problem is pervasive enough problem is pervasive enough when I borrowed some BLUES, kyou kara ore nishimori now go get some often than not throwing the samurai x OVAs too long and against babbies love. Hxh is ignore her.
>yotsuba is aren't we? Because everyone denying the story has piece with rurouni kenshin really thought out beyond a 1000 chapters to character development, a plot aimed at teenagers.
Get do you think genre it if I try! Always forget it. It medium.
In terms of in a million years. Is the japanese story level.
Guess who lost of course, I referred a different prospective.
The togashi learning from his that? Who are you because everyone going super the left and right of kenshin when I adventure wise it is shounen isn't even a forget that yu yu famous in japan.

Manga cliches are the unique cliches to manga and anime that you don't see else where.

Fucking winged that most tell its story, top lot of the kind friend. I really liked cliches with more general like NGE's episode 25 a lot of the many currently shonens: SOUL.
it's miles ahead out "I love it because people hate one piece always forget it." "It who is better than love it because I've hxh."
OP has a up.

The actual second arc in Kinnikuman was still when the series was still only comedy superhero antics.

Battle shounen is a genre within a demographic. It has to be a shounen first, and then it can be a battle shounen based on its content. This is why no one has mentioned Samidare, despite it being very battle shounen-esque and extremely popular on /a/.

It was the most entertaining of the Big 3 that's for sure but it was never really great. It might have helped save WSJ from near financial ruin but it doesn't come to close to anything that came out in it's golden generation.

Yeah, but it took wayy too many episodes of pure boring garbage and way too many 2-dimensional filler furry characters that nobody cares about to get to the good stuff, which was only the final part of the arc; Palace Invasion.

He's right, the whole NGE part was fucking boring (and easily the worst part of the entire series) and at that part of the arc Meruem and the royal guards were generic villains.
Only after we see Meruem trying to defeat humans in other fields and Komugi is introduced the arc start to become interesting.
The palace invasion and the end of the arc were top tier.

Too soon to tell yet, we haven't had a "shit just got realer than real" arc yet that throws the manga in it's path towards the ending.
Deku hasn't seen AfO yet, only heard about him; All Might hasn't kicked the bucket and passed the torch for real yet; Manchild still doesn't feel like he's growing into a threat that he'll likely be by the end; among a few other issues.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the whole "daily activities of hero students", but it doesn't feel like it's moving anywhere yet.

I've always wanted to get into HxH but part of what puts me off is the way so many of its fans praise it because of 'grey morality' and 'mature themes' instead of just talking about why it's well executed. Dio is pure evil but he's a great villain; he's drawn in a very imposing charismatic way and he gets tons of cool memorable lines.

There are books made for actual adults where you can find themes more 'mature' than those in a fighting shonen manga made for older kids & teenagers but happens to be mature "by fighting shonen standards". Why the fuck would you judge the quality of a shonen by maturity and not the quality of its execution within a visual storytelling medium?

>>133143853 I'd like to think this guy is just trolling but I don't have enough hope left for you guys so I think he's probably just that ignorant.

>>133144035
Or look at this guy. Devilman isn't good because "it was shocking back then", it's good because it has expressive art and great paneling and a narrative that knows what it's trying to say from the get-go and says it well without holding back.

Is it the "best shonen manga ever"? Highly subjective, and I assume people saying that do it mainly because of its historical importance and not because it's their favorite, but it's still good.

>>133149374
> Devilman isn't good because "it was shocking back then"
That's where a lot of its fame and influence comes from, the fact that it did things that hadn't been done before. As for the rest, those don't seem like particularly high bars to clear, although I admit I've never really gotten what makes good or bad paneling.

Good paneling is where you can very easily follow the flow of action. It's surprisingly very easy to fuck up.
>>
>>133149374
People often talk about why HxH is well executed, but that's the sort of thing that comes up in proper discussions. Not in short, passing comments of praise in a shit flinging battle manga thread.

If you want nice visual storytelling, Togashi is rather good at it. But people don't really talk about that because they dismiss the manga in the first place, unfortunately.

It's not JUST the paneling but the general use of the medium. Devilman might be "drawn badly" as far as anatomical mistakes and shit go (it was obviously rushed too and not as polished as something like Mao Dante; still I actually prefer it stylistically over the latter) but it has a fantastic aesthetic sense. Nagai is really good at composition, often when someone posts an "epic" page by a far more technically skilled artist who could draw circles around Nagai even now it still doesn't feel as thoughtful in terms of things like contrast and readability, or even just sheer inventiveness, as the best pages in Devilman.

I wouldn't say it's just that, sometimes it's just for creative visuals. Using HxH as an example, Togashi has a habit I like of superimposing figures over manga panels for depth and emphasis. Sometimes it helps with the flow of action, like when someone new steps into the room, but sometimes it just looks cool and draws your attention (if I was home I'd post the page where Gon san's body divides the panels up).

I love how Miki in this scene is all white but the insane mob is an amorphous black blob of psychotic faces. It's drawn like shit as far as solidity and antomy goes but stuff like this is a big part of what helps make moments in a story memorable and iconic. Lots of people on /ic/ can draw very solidly but if they tried to tell a story in comic form it would probably look bland as shit.

Knowing how to make important scenes have an impact doesn't just result in cool drawings to post in "ebin manga pages" threads on /a/ (though admittedly that's also awesome), it's also an important part of visual storytelling.

Though as far as the other "classic shonen" Ashita no Joe goes I prefer the visuals in the anime. I guess you could say 'lolopinions' since the anime is more dramatic and over the top and the manga is more understated but I don't think AnJ's manga art is good enough to be a classic as far as "down-to-earth art" goes. Meanwhile the anime is some of Dezaki's best hyper-stylized dramatic work and has lots of cool shots.

Devilman though, I genuinely think the manga version if the best. The first OVA is good and I recommend it but it's still not quite as impacting.

YYH's world is relatively dull and the whole series becomes worse when they attempt to expand it with the stupid demon world shit. YYH has probably the best definitive tournament arc and one of the best set of protagonists ever, but HxH is better in every other way.

I really like how HxH never snowballs into the MCs being the most important or powerful characters in the world or anything.
Togashi has developed a nice, comfy, and so far extremely consistent powerlevel scale throughout the entire series, so that any powerups or training done by Killua and Gon never feel cheap, because there's always a point of reference. Stuff like Bleach and Naruto's Getsuga Tensho and Rasengan were both introduced as extremely powerful techniques, but of course both became literally weaker than punches as the series went on. Not so much so in HxH.
Hisoka and Illumi, two very dangerous and strong characters that were introduced early on have not had any of their threat level diminished, because Togashi had the foresight to make them not really exert any effort in their fights during the Exam arc. As such, Hisoka, pretty much the most constant antagonistic party for Gon, has still remained far and above Gon despite Gon growing in leaps and bounds every arc.
The Chimera Ant arc was the only arc so far to go big with the threat of the antagonist, in this case threatening the existance of all humanity, but it never fell to Gon or Killua to defeat him. It fell to experienced veterans to deal with the problem, while Gon and Killua, only involved by being at the right place in the wrong time, merely play a support role to the people actually tasked with dealing with the problem.

And that's really what captures the feeling of "two kids out on an adventure to see the world". They aren't major powers, they aren't important pieces in a larger puzzle, they're just kids, training, learning, and growing.

The thing that aggravates me about shounens is that they follow a formula. MC never loses or gets some bull shit power up becomes op as fuck rinse and repeat then wins. Or bringing characters back to life one of dbz flaws. It seems all repetitive to me. Also fuck the power of friendship

It also makes Gon and Killua significantly less obnoxious as MCs, because people aren't constantly sucking their dicks for being heroic and saving the day.

>>133154477
I hope you know that phrasing a genre convention to sound stupid doesn't make it inherently bad writing or even worth basing your opinion of a series on. It's true Jojo doesn't involve that, but Jojo has very narrow focus. So it has great fights but barely any character development, for example. I love it and think it succeeds in many areas, but it doesn't even try in other areas.

There are many great personalities but one issue I have is the lack of variety when it comes to 'fight intelligence', if that makes sense. Most stand users have the same clever, quick witted way of fighting. They almost all have plenty of convenient trivia knowledge to use, they are super creative, etc. Araki has to write so many characters that way because it's the best vehicle for interesting fights and abilities, but it's not great characterization.

What the fuck do you think a premise is, moron? The plot details that vary from arc to arc, or the underlying base the story built on?

Fighting and hunting aren't mutually exclusive, and the premise of a show doesn't have to be what happens most often. The premise of YYH is ghost detectives, that lasted a few fucking volumes. The premise of One Piece is pirates, the main characters don't commit any acts of piracy. The premise of Naruto is ninjas but they're basically magicians. If you don't want to get into semantics, don't fucking bring up the premise when you just want to say you don't care for the plot.

Why sit through so much unnecessary shit when you can shorten it and make it perfect in a nice little package.

also, I would like for you to name some shows (over 26 episodes long) that you consider masterpieces out of curiosity.

Masterpiece is a big word but LoGH, for one. But your logic is retarded when you consider that there are many great manga significantly longer than the equivalent of 24 episodes, and they will naturally result in a long anime if/when they're adapted. It might be a bad adaption, but that doesn't mean bad writing is inherent to the length of it.

Just let it have the gold medal for best non-combat sports manga
It's too murky to compare different genres for dabess

Is the any chance that any other series would get the Brotherhood treatment in the future?

Lets face it, Hunter x Hunter shifted to Senien once the Chimera Ant Arc started

It's the most popular manga of all time, ofcourse /a/ hates it.

>And OP isn't?
Can you name me one? Cause that isn't one. That was at the beginning of Shanks career and he was too busy protecting Luffy to defend his arm.

I'm not saying OP is avant garde art, but the last thing Toriyama wrote for Dragon ball was having the earth blow up only for a character out of nowhere reveal he can reverse time and undos it. Then theres Super Sayian God Super Sayian.

any manga can be considered the greatest manga of all time if it over stayed it's welcome like one peice does

at least DBZ and Naruto knew when to quit.

Have you thought about it though?
>Start of Shanks's time as a captain
>Has to protect Luffy from the monster
>How strong do you have to be to not have your arm bitten off?
>>
>>133167014
>Naruto knew when to quit
Then why does Shippuden exist?
>>
>>133142032
Did you seriously say One Piece doesn't have adventure but DBZ does?
Maybe up until halfway through the andriod arc DB did, but it's long since dropped any sense of adventure.

Also calling One Piece's fights sub par? They're not amazing but they have their hype moments. DBZ is formulaic as shit. I don't see how anyone got excited over the Super Sayian Gods fights, fucking boring.
It's why I actually like Gotenks. With his fusion and he weird ghost ability- he's the only creative fighter left in the show after Toriyama nerfed 90% of his cast.

Really? I feel like Dragon Ball Super is the most souless revival of a franchise I have ever seen.

Senzu beans.

That's a plot device, not a plot hole.

>>133167189
Why doesn't Goku have a bag full on him at all times to face any villain?
Why doesn't any villain use them?

Fuck, in the new film Frieza kills Goku only for Krillin to pop up and feed him a senzu bean without being stopped.

>watches super
>claims to be souless
you're watching the subbed version for one which is why you dont feel anything.you're looking at the text at the bottom of the screen.

also its a story we already seen with the movies. im sure it will get better later on with the english actors.

>>133167014
>Naruto knew when to quit
If it knew when to quit it would've had one or two more arcs after Rescue Sasuke Arc and be done with it.

>DBZ knew when to quit
Th series thats still fucking going?

I'm not saying One Piece isn't long, but you gotta respect Oda for clearly planning all of this. He knows how long the series is going to be and whats going to happen in it. It's not like when Kishimoto straight up said "I know how it ends, but right now I'm making it up as it goes and seeing what happens"
>>
>>133167014
If you count Dragon Ball, and why wouldn't you, One Piece's run has not lasted close to as long as DB has.
>>
>>133141690
Kenshin became pretty shit halfway through.
>>
>>133167309
Really? You think its just cause of subs?
I seriously doubt dubbign is going to fix "The cast of DBZ have a birthday party but woah! A new powerful enemy showed up. Better turn into super sayain form 29 to stop him, this time with blue hair!"
>>
>>133167352
oh wow. thats the 1st time ive seen that opinion.

I felt it was great all the way through.
>>
>One Piece
>better than YYH, DB, JoJo, RRK, HnK

Why not put Bleach and Naruto up too while you're at it? The FUCK is wrong with kids these days?
