Is it worth reading? what should i expect?

Expect the unexpected

>>146868991
No. It starts off really charming but later falls prey to the worst excesses of shonen manga, an endless pileup of nonsensical resurrections and powerlevel bullshit. Usually you have at least until the end of the first big arc for the author to forget what they're doing and the plot to fall apart but not this one

>my red demon blood lets me regenerate until the pacing of this battle is destroyed
>your red demon blood is no match for my nonchalant goku attitude
>jokes on you now I have GRAY demon blood it's even more demony

>>146868991
It started good but by the time they defeat hendricksen it turns into powerlevel garbage full of asspulls. Just read Kongo banchou, at least that one is purposely written ridiculous.

>>146868991
It's shit. Really ... It's boring as fuck. Meliodas is one of the worst shonen characters. Elizabeth cries in every chapter. The sins are bitches. Too many shonen stereotypes. Run away from this shitty thing.

>>146869389
Basically this. Read it until Hendricksen gets defeated. Don't bother with the rest. Matter of fact is that Nakaba doesn't know to pace for shit. He introduces new characters/threats but makes them drop like flies while completely sidelining a huge part of the cast. Once powerlevels come into play he just can't stop oneupping himself constantly. And I mean constantly. Same problem plaguer Kongo Banchou eventually but as >>146869389 said, it isn't as egregious because of the different tone of the series.

Also thanks for the recommendation i have seen that buff giant guy before but never knew how the manga was called.

Just watch the anime, it basically has all the good parts of the beginning of the manga.

It had many downright bullshit moments even before Hendy's fight though.

Just because there are a bunch of anons who have shit taste and most people just leave them be and not bother to shit on them in their threads anymore doesn't mean NnT is not shit and people shitting on them in other threads are memeing.

>>146868991
It's great. Probably the best currently running battle shounen. Every single arc has never turned out the way that people predicted it would, and they bitch about it to no end.

Honestly, the second half is even better than the first, both thematically and action-wise. It takes it's time setting out the greater plot, but the action is quite fast paced and any hints of future events are foreshadowed quite subtly. I can see why it's brilliance goes over the heads of most people.

It's a patrician series, basically. Not for plebs.

>>146871974
Nakaba would die of shame if he ever read this.

>>146871974

It's basically Fairy Tail except a bit better and there's no that much fanservice(though there's still a lot).

Meh. It's ok. I doubt Nakaba could get any better than what he's doing in NnT though.

I like it because its a more fun Fairy tail. I also think it has to do with how young the series is I haven't gotten tired of the mangaka's bullshit yet.

>>146868991
Art reminds me of DB and its probably the only good battle shounen atm, so theres that.

Read it for Escanor, disregard everything else because it's absolutely mediocre, unimaginative and pretty nonsensical.
Escanor is pretty great though.

good:

MC with a shit ton of moral ambiguity even 2/3rds the way through the story
randomly reverses a lot of battle shonen tropes

bad:
FT-tier plot armor for nearly every character
power levels become a thing at least for a while
two of the protagonists have currently ridiculously eclipsed everyone, including the big bad enemy team, in power

>>146868991
Typical battle shonen evolution: starts out decent enough and eventually completely runs out of ideas, becoming as generic as you'd expect it to be.

>>146874448
Escanor is the worst thing about the manga. Literally everything else is great. Only plebians like Escanor.

>>146868991
It's the best ongoing shonen currently, so that speaks for itself.

If NnT is garbage tier, then everything is absolutely shit.

>>146873046
He's right though. People who shit on NnT are idiots who can no longer comprehend the plot, because it abandoned it's simplicity.

>>146877275
No I'm just not Escanorfag. Ironically he's the most unimaginative thing about the manga so far.

>>146873414
Wrong.

Fairy Tail is predictable while NTT isn't.

>>146877379
No, if anything NnTfags are just easily impressed peasants who are also into asspulled powerup after asspulled powerup all with grandiose scale which turned out aren't that impressive because everything precedent and subsequent actually has the same big fat thicc scale usually in comparison to a castle or a mountain.

>>146877460
Sure thing.

>>146877529
Let me predict something in the next chapter right here: Fraud-kun is going to job again

>>146877662
You just said a whole lot of nothing. NnT can never be truly enjoyed by plebs, due to all the subtle foreshadowing, key plot points and extreme detail.

People who say the linear first arc is better are just assblasted morons upset that they can't comprehend the plot anymore. They only read for Escanor because he's the epitome of shonen casual-ness.

Overpowered
>Coooool lines

>>146877712
Literally every prediction made always turns out to he false 90% of the time. Even if he does job (which he mostly will, he jobs constantly) won't change anything. Especially since we know Merlin is stronger than Fraudrin in Dreyfus' body. You're stating the obvious and trying to pass it off as you being some kind of prophet.

>>146878158
But you just said NnT is unpredictable, and now you say since it's soooo obvious I am not allowed to make such a prediction because it will turn out to be true. Double standards much?

>>146878154
You only scratched the surface. The fact that those are the only ones you can recall is pathetic. Those were the ones that were thrown in your face.

So what were the foreshadows for Gloxinia and Dolor being fairy king and giant ancestor again?

>>146878542
It sucks that I'm right though..

>>146878628

The fact their names were being brought up in discussion (Meliodas mentioning Gloxinia in the cave. Hell, Gloxinia called Meliodas old friend before he revealed himself, so that was foreshadowed quite briefly) before the twist makes it pretty obvious that Nakaba was building up for the reveal.

The entire Dolor dancing thing was to introduce his importance to the Giant clan before revealing he's with the 10Cs

>>146878829
Dolor's name dropping was like clearing ways for his introduction than "foreshadowing", there was absolutely nothing connecting the name and the 10 commandments dude beside he's a big guy 4u.
Gloxinia calling Meliodas old friend was meaningless because by that point we should all be aware all 10 commandments were supposed to be his old comrades anyway, and that had nothing to do with fairyking not actually octololi lel. That was completely from the left side.

>>146878946
That's what a plot twist. Nakaba simply namedropped them because of his plans to reveal them as bad guys. It would've came out of nowhere if they hadn't been topic of discussion before the reveal

Any further foreshadowing and it wouldn't have been a twist.

>>146879250
Yeah, I know. I quit. at least provoking other fags can lead to some interesting enlightening facts I'm not usually aware of of the series I'm trying to bait on.

>>146879250
No, he just made it painfully obvious that he was planning something with them. Why else would their names and legacy become relevant? My entire point was that it didn't come out of absolutely nowhere and most things are subtly hinted at or just downright foreshadowed. You probably don't read a lot of Nakaba's manga.

Ironically you use a picture from JoJo, which is the king of asspulls. Truly confusing.

>>146879744
>planning
Dolor's name was dropped 1 chapter before he was revealed to be, dundundun, Dolor.

>>146879305
Maybe I could've expressed myself better if you had better sentence structure and grammar. You weren't making it easy for me at all.

In order to deliver the perfect argument/response, I would expect the person I'm debating with to have some form of intelligence and literacy.

>>146879838
>being Hiro era newfag

Oh yeah, now it's a 2 volumes foreshadowing, a tad shorter than Arthur's name dropping. The point still stands

>>146879941
This is what NnTfags would pass as a subtle hint now?

I can use the same logic, what was going against the fact that they could've been part of then10 Commandents? Nothing. At the end of the day, you're just a casual reader trying to be smart and critical, but all of your arguments quite questionable. This is my last reply to you, have fun.

>>146880376
>what was going against the fact that they could've been part of then10 Commandents
Nothing, because it was just an empty namedrop of an old giant dude without us knowing how long ago was his era so that Nakaba could either conveniently use it or just safely ignore it later in the story.
And the fact that the giants were fighting against the demons without any mentioning of something as scandalous and historically important as their leader betrayed their own race and became the enemy's ace. He was still praised as their legendary hero in very recent history, even.

>>146885068
The plotline has only gotten better. I was on the verge of dropping until chapter 105. And the fact that it has gained more fans since it's second arc is proof that many people share my opinion.
