Do realistic sports mangos even exist
I don't want to see niggas shoot fucking laser basketballs around and while jumping 50 feet into the air

I follow NBA and I thought that Slam Dunk was generally realistic for what it was despite being really drawn out by the end.
>>145985341
One Piece.
It's been with me since I was a kid.

Why not?
>>145987014
>Why not?
Because it's silly
>>145986877
Slam Dunk is probably the only one.
>>145986877
Yes.

The anime is pretty slow paced
But the manga had really tense moments
Also Sena is one of my favorite zero to hero characters
Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken
it's probably the purest example of what battle shonen is all about, it plays all the cliches completely straight but does it so well
shit like naruto is basically DnD only twice longer and ten times worse

>bringing an M4 to a handegg game
for what purpose
>>145985341
Yotsuba
>>145986877
Giant Killing
since it's basically Football Manager : the anime/manga
>>145993214
Star Wars has better world building and Star Wars is complete shit so what's your point?
>>145990477
What? You can't handle a big guy?
>>145990583
>The anime is pretty slow paced
So is the manga
Every damn match lasts 20 to 30 chapters
>>145990695
You posted my fave so I'm posting my 2nd fave instead(yeah I know I'm cheating)
Sports is the only genre that, when aimed at the shounen demographic, can produce worthwhile results. You cannot prove me wrong.

Read more sports manga, or atleast look around on baka-updates. There's just as many grounded sports series as there are wacky pseudo-battle shounen ones.
>>145995137
It's not really a problem since a manga is naturally faster paced since one chapter can be read much faster. The anime was badly paced but what killed it for me was the filler and the worse character art. The manga had great art that evolved. The anime had shitty art that only stagnated even more.
But Slam Dunk is still the king of badly paced sports anime. I remember around 30 episodes for one of the later matches.
>>145986877
Kokou no Hito. Naturally realistic sports manga offer much more than just training and getting gud so sometimes it doesn't even feel like a sports manga.
>>145995684
Is Sinbad no Bouken worth reading? I already read Magi
>>145995684
The lore became way too deep. I just wanted a good adventure with some darker tone here and there. At this point it would be much better if it went full on seinen.
>>145995550
and there are fighting-focused ones that are still grounded too, like All Fighter Meguru (which is in scanlator purgatory at the moment unfortunately)
>>145995836
*shit, meant All Rounder Meguru
>>145995737
Yes it's just as good as Magi especially if you're a Sinbadfag or an Adventurefag.

>Do realistic sports mangos even exist
I'm pretty sure realistic ones are more abundant than the Inazuma Eleven-type ones (though perhaps it's these wackier ones that get adapted into anime more often)
>>145995564
>It's not really a problem since a manga is naturally faster paced since one chapter can be read much faster.
This is a meme
Not everyone reads at the same speed and if you're speedreading you tend to miss out on details
And I'm pretty sure there was matches that lasted 50 chapters once which felt like forever
It was nuts how a fraction of a second of play took like 5 pages or more to cover just analyizing it...it was madness
>>145993325
Listen, you gotta do whatever it takes to win
>>145996611
What fucking meme?
It's literally impossible for the anime to be faster paced than the manga if it doesn't cut things.
Where do i subscribe!??

Since they're playing American Football, does that mean the characters are American?
Or is there Handegg in Japland?
>>145997852
You don't know how sports manga work? Some mangaka picks any sport, it doesn't matter what kind of sport it is. It always plays in japan and they pretend there is a huge scene for this sport with national competitions and shit.
>>145985341
Good taste
>>145998078
There also always some exceptional japanese players that would be international superstars in reality.
>>145987014
Because why do you need to overdramatize simple things like a fadeaway shot, fake, dunk, etc?
>>145997298
The whole "manga can't be badly paced" is a meme
Eyeshield 21's pacing is horrible
>>146000161
The anime is way worse.
