What does /a/ think of the rise of capeshit anime?

I like it. But, at the same time, I think Dragon Ball Super is fun..... so, what do I know.

Is there any chance of this being good?

>>160037016

It's atleast better than modern day capeshit.

I think the dubs are good

>>160037016

Right is just a parody and left is just shonen but with heroes.

I think there needs to be a 3rd for it to be considered a "rise"

>>160037414
I believe in hiroshi nagahama, he'll be the man who'll make me like capeshit

All-Might vs Noumu was actually top notch. All the greatest hits of shonin with none of the time wasting. If this is the kind of shonin capeshit we're in store for, keep it coming.

Better than capeshit comics.

>>160038569

I would have been okay with the dub if it wasn't for the fact that Genos sounded like he had a huge glob of snot in his throat whenever he spoke.

Good thread.

>>160037016
Well one punch man is actually good cause the characters are fun/interesting, it doesn't take itself to serious, and the actions scenes are well written animated and shot.

Boku no hero is shit cause the characters are boring/uninteresting, it takes itself way to seriously, and the "action" is poorly written, choreographed and animated, with the exception of 20 seconds of sakuga here and there. But it's not like that saves it because the choreography is just so drab itself.

>>160038671
Yea, that explains why no one reads them. What about compared to movies?

That's because Western Capeshit never really left the dark age.
It's kind of sad when Japan has a better understanding of what makes Super Heroes work than America does.

>>160039039

One punch man gets boring real quick, if you don't like the characters it all gets old. It not taking itself to serious is the point of the parody aspect you might think it is the next best thing since sliced bread but it again gets old. I don't know what the fuck you mean by well written animated, maybe you meant to add a comma. For being well written, there are super hero parodies that are more well written, The animation was alright but nothing to write home about and were mostly helped by the OST.

Boku no hero being shit and the characters being boring/uninteresting that is a matter of preference, I don't know what aspect of the characters you find boring/uninteresting so I will leave it at that. For taking itself too seriously I again don't know what you mean, you want everything to not take itself seriously and there to be nothing at stake? One piece is pretty good at that. On the sakuga part I stopped taking you seriously as you yourself aren't sure what it means

>Idol group 9nine members Kanae Yoshii, Hirona Murata, Uki Satake, and Sayaka Nishiwaki as Kana, Hiro, Uki, and Saya. Hiroshi Nagahama, the anime's director, said during an event in April that the characters will not appear many times in the story, but when they do, "they will get a lot of attention. It's like Hulk from The Avengers, he gets the best part." Nagahama drew the anime's original design for the group's appearance, which lists the group as the "9th Wonder."

See that's why OPM is good and Hero Academia is cookie cutter bullshit. Oh boo hoo, All Might lost his powers but Deku will master everything in time with no life changing injuries that matter. Who doesn't see that coming and who would expect anything different?

>>160039588
It has nothing to with being a parody, i don't even think it is a parody. It just doesn't takes itself seriously at all, and ever fight scene is well executed and entertaining as well as the characters.
>>160039673
But it doesn't, the viewers excitement isn't based off of saitama struggling in a fight, they use other characters for that.It's just a light hearted and well produced action comedy, the cast is really big but just about ever side character is interesting.

If you don't like the characters in anything it gets old, they are the ones that carry the show if you don't like them you won't like the show no shit.
This isn't some kind of one punch man specific complaint.

When I say the fights are well written i'm talking everything for character to designs, to set up and execution. Throw away villains like sea king are more interesting and compelling then any villain in boku no hero period.
The animation isn't "alright", it's consistently leaps and bounds beyond anything other action shows put out, comparatively speaking it's the best for a tv series by a large margin.
>you want everything to not take itself seriously and there to be nothing at stake?
The stakes are already low enough pls. BNHA fucked up with it's high school setting, everything comes off as kiddie shit.this tourny arc they just had was probably the most poorly executed and written i've ever seen of this troupe. I'll make a post dedicated to just that in a sec
anyways, the characters, especially the lead are all just generic archetypes we've seen a million times before, deku literally has no personality.
As for sakuga i'm referring to moments in which bones hires a freelace animator to make a really well animated sequence, the guy did like 2 scenes this season so far. Both for todoroki 1st time was freezing a robot, second time for fighting deku. Each sequence he animated last around 20-40 seconds, it's actually quite jarring compared to all the below average animation in between.

Closed continuities like movies or animated universes are comparable with the lack of bullshit.

As for this shitty ass tournament arc wew.
1st. off this shit high school setting makes everything feel like baby shit. It gives the sense that it's all a controlled environment and thus nothing is really a stake here.

Opposed to something like the hunter or chunni exams where actual life is threatened, you know actual stakes.

2nd. The test make no fucking sense. How does running through a shit obstacle corse once prepare students for being heroes?

What's worse was the gawd awful calvary battle, when will any of the students every be forced to handicap themselves to a calvary position in the real world? Fucking never, this hack of a mangaka really couldn't come up with original exams that actually test the characters to being heroes?
The whole arc is so predictable and by the numbers, there's literally no room for originality or creativity in the writing with such rigid test.

On the other hand something like naruto will have a written exam. On one hand the test is filled with knowledge that would be useful to the "ninjas" in their world, on the other hand there's a nice twist in which the goal of the test is actually to get away with cheating. They even do a whole spiel on how that plays into being a ninja. It's a creative twist on the whole written exam and it plays directly into the world.
Running and obstacle corse once, and playing calvary battle has fuck all to do with being a hero.

And don't get me started on the actual fights themselves, the animations are average at best or static with speed lines, character motivations and backstories are super generic, the choreography is basic or flat out makes no sense, or worst of all everything is extremely predictable, no good twist or surprises what's so ever.

Yeah, a lot. Nagahama has a definite vision for this show; it sounds like something he's wanted to make for a long time. He's also a hardcore capeshit fan, so I trust it in his hands. Also, he's yet to make a bad anime.

>>160040669

>>160040177
Saitama is a parody of the archetypical Superhero who's strong enough to take on any challenge, taken to its logical extreme.

This doesn't make the show bad, insubstantial, or meaningless, but it is still a parody of many super hero and general anime/manga cliches and concepts.

>>160040569

I like both of these series, but you're 1/3 on the characters you mentioned. Bang is anything but stoic, Tatsumaki has no dere in her except for her sister and Blast, she has no problem mutilating everyone else. Puri Puri is a gay rapist, he gives excellent advice though

Deku has absolutely zero conflicts after basically O MY RUBBER NENing his way to a power that shouldn't have been given to him had he not rolled a goddamn 20 in luck. Don;t give that injured bullshit, he will master the quirk with zero lifelong negative consequences.

Meanwhile a high tier guy like Sweet Mask had his entire fucking face caved in by the person causing mayhem who is really not even a bad guy at heart. That's stupid, but it's interesting. Boku has it's own stupidity but it's a different kind. The vanilla, bland kind.

>>160040098
Who knows. They keep getting shoehorned into anime this way, as far back as Star Driver.

At least one of them is Uki Satake, who's an actually decent seiyuu.

>>160040788
The whole point of Amai Mask is that he's a prettyboy faggot who can't walk the walk and is in heroing for the exposure and money rather than to do any good.

The characters in opm stick to their main defining character traits and aren't particularly deep but that doesn't take anything away from the show.

It works well, especially sinces there's a nice rotation of whom saitama interacts with, the one defining personality traits are fun to see saitama interact with, they keep it from feeling repetitive by cycling through and introducing new characters, though the cast never feels bloated.

Not to mention at least the characters in opm actually have some personality to them, can't say the same for bnh

I can't believe I'm responding to bait, but here it goes

>obstacle course criticism

They have to topple each other to be number one which is what the current status of being a hero has become. It's popularity contest just as much as it is about being useful and saving people. It's also an opportunity to demonstrate their quirks to pros that are watching, so that they have a better shot at an internship that'll eventually lead to a full career.

>playing Calvary Battle

The series literally tells you that heroes are sometimes forced to team up. This is explained both in the first and second season. Sometimes you have to topple others to stay around and sometimes you have to work with other heroes currently present to deal with a villain/save people.

This status quo also gives motive to Stain. This series is a pretty straightforward one, so how you managed to miss all of that is beyond me.

>>160041420
They pulled the protag doesn't win in a tournament back in dragon ball, back in Aishita No Joe, Hajime No Ippo. Fuck, a show that exists to market Pokemon has Ash get BTFO outside of semifinals years before BNHA happened.

Please just watch the fucking show.

The festival isn't to teach the kids how to be heroes, the school is for that. They're showing off their quirks and getting scouted by agencies who think they're good enough.

>>160041420
You don't even understand the purpose greentext, pls.
>Set in school
This setting literally fucked them.

>not the entire thing just for showing off the students abilities
That's all this tournament arc was. The writer being the uncreative hack he is just couldn't make up a test or scenario in which it makes logical sense that they should use their powers.

As explained a single obstacle corse and calvary battle test nothing, just a forced crutch for the characters with no actual in world use beyond filler for the actual fighting portion.

>It's not Naruto
Never said it had to be, the point was naruto was able to make pre-test/challengers for the actual fighting that made actual sense. the challenges taught lessons and brought up ideas which expanded on the world. He was able to make genuinely original and creative challenges and twist, with unique solutions. The writer had to actually think about it, instead of doing a brain dead generic sports festival with super powers.

>Generic backstories
It was literally a corny korean soap opera, pls

>Predictable
I wasn't talking about the choreography being predictable, but the outcome of the fights. The writer is incapable of writing clever twist and solutions into his fight scenes. They where cut and dry, you never once had to worry about who would win.

Yet something like rock lee vs gaara, had some many twist and turns, the pace of the fight went back and forth and the out come was genuinely unpredictable.

>MC NOT WINNING A BABY TOURNAMENT IS A TWIST
ahahahah you're joking. I'm talking about twist during the fight itself. Presenting an issue for each party, and writing in clever or exciting solutions for each person to execute.
You could tell who would win each fight without even watching them in bnh

>>160041929
That was more like a mini arc. Battle Tower was treated by Gon and Killua as a way to get money, but like the 25th martial arts tournament in DBZ, it stopped being the main idea two episodes in when returning Hisoka's punch and realizing the Hunter test was still going on became more important.

>>160041666
Holy shit you're an idiot.
>Obstacle course
This is quite literally the most original and pointless test the writer could have come up with.
There's dozens of better scenarios in which each person can show case their power.
Running a corse once, in no way determines real world usefulness.

>Calvary Battle
Oh, I have no issue with forcing them to team up, that makes sense given the setting.
The issue is IN NO SITUATION WILL THEY EVER BE PIGEON HELD INTO A CALVARY FORMATION.
This does absolutely nothing for team work, never will they forced to fight in such an awkward formation.

The writer just wanted to superfy generic japanese high school festival shit because he is void of any and all creativity.

Hunter x Hunter literally has a session with the chairman not only going through the main characters, but the side guys as well, interviewing them on how they felt about the other people. Gon has an entire chapter or like half an episode detailing all that happened in the exam, which was like and even ended up being a tournament in the end.

Doesn't the humour pretty much come from OPM not giving a shit pwhile the other characters doesn't know who he is. Pretty repetitive.

>Doesn't the humour pretty much come from OPM not giving a shit pwhile the other characters doesn't know who he is
That literally the a small portion of the comedy, and quite a shallow look at it. Most of the comedy comes from the character interacting with their environment, Saitama isn't involved with everything

>Calls someone else an idiot while idiotically missing the point

With that man first years, an obstacle course makes perfect sense.
>Students use their quirks to their advantage to figuratively and literally stay on top just like the current world of heroes
>First obstacle is what they had to deal with during their entrance exam to test how far they've come along

It's like you're not even trying.

>Hung up on the Calvary formation of all things

Jesus fucking Christ. It's not about running into other people and having a Calvary Battle in the real world. You can't be this stupid. It's simply about having to put together a team on the spot and utilizing each other's strengths and weaknesses. Even easier: It's about coordinating as a team. If you think that's an awkward formation, imagine what's out there in the hero world? Why wouldn't it make sense to have the students get used to having to pair up while being uncomfortable and needing to work together without any prior setup?

>The writer just wanted to superfy generic japanese high school festival shit because he is void of any and all creativity

>World of superheroes
>Series openly states that stuff like the Olympics are a thing of the past because of quirks
>Sports festival activity naturally involves students using their quirks

No, fuck you. I can't believe anybody is this stupid. You're either pretending to be retarded and baiting or you haven't read or watched this series.

>>160042365
The majority of the humour does come from that situation though. The other characters have to act very obtus so they can keep repeating it.

>>160042386
I dont like the idea of insult mangaka just because anon is weeb fucking trash that like animu

>>160040298
Who are all these characters, though? Why do you give a shit about them?

Only ones worth remembering are All Might because he's almost the perfect archetype of a super hero. And I kinda liked Stain just because his autistic outrage at how absurd it is for most of the "heroes" to call themselves heroes resonated with my autism. But the rest? Forgettable trash all of them. ESPECIALLY the main character, who is probably the least interesting character in the whole show. I'd even take fukken naruto over him any day of the week. As obnoxious as he was, at least he had a personality.

>Capeshit thread
>No mention of Gamma

>>160042449
>Obstacle
Beating someone in a literal race doesn't teach competetivitiy(what you're describing) more then any other test between peers.

The act of running over minds and shit on a set path itself is a fucking joke of a test, it doesn't allow for a good show casing of powers in anyway.
Someones quirk may be extremely useful, but useless when running an obstacle corse, beyond being flat out unoriginal, and stupids.

>hung up on what makes a CALVARY BATTLE a FUCKING CALVARY BATTLE

If they wanted to pit everyone in random teams to test teamwork a calvary battle is the worst possible test to do so.
Actually forcing students to form a calvary formation, and steal ribbons from each other will in no way aid them in the real world, a team test like the one in season 1 would promote the creative use of team work a million times better then a generic calavary battle.

The only reason such horrible nonsensical test where used is because the writer being the uncreative hack he is decided to just put a spin on generic school festival staples.
It's just bad writing, and even worse execution, making for the worst tournament arc ever.

There's nothing wrong with sports festival bullshit with super powers, but using them to test and market children to investors is beyond anti-productive. Not only is it lazy writing but it's extremely unhelpful. I'd find it hard to believe that investors honestly think such pointless trivial test are able to fully sell each student, the fact that they actually use it to look for prospects is just comically bad writing.

Now, if the writer was just doing a school festival for fun? Sure this shit could work out, but as a pre-curser to a for a fucking tournament arc? It fails on ever level.

>The majority of the humour does come from that situation though
The majority of the humor comes from Saitama fucking around inside his circle of "friends"
>The other characters have to act very obtus so they can keep repeating it.
Post Sea King, nearly everyone Saitama encounters knows how he is, and interactions outside of that are even treated as jokes. They rarely repeat that, it's more of a joke that Saitama doesn't remember who anyone he's meet is

>>160042695
And I don't like the idea of you existing on this planet but we all have to make compromises every now and then.

>>160042838
No, the majority of the humour comes from his opponents overlookin' him cause they don't know who he is while OPM tries to figure out what he's going to eat for dinner. Then when the people around him do see his strength they keep acting dumb like that can't be it.

I love this thread, it started out as bait and ended up being anons trying to one up each other by having progressively deteriorating grammar and spelling in their attempts at an argument

That only applies to Saitama fights, which don't even take up a third of the manga. Even then, all his fights don't follow this scenario. And people recognize his strength instantly, it's an outside factor that leads to doubt. Remove that, and you get another supporting character

>Still not understanding the obstacle race even though every obstacle is explained

They even explain that the minefield was made with the mines to be visible so that the students would have to exploit their eyes and legs. Things that don't require their quirks. There's you answer for some quirks not being useful. The mine field also puts first place at a disadvantage which, fucking surprise, is a common theme with being #1. Above all else, it's still a fucking school sports festival and it's made for entertainment purposes as well. Todoroki even mentions that. There's no way you've gone through this series.

>Actually forcing students to form a calvary formation, and steal ribbons from each other will in no way aid them in the real world, a team test like the one in season 1 would promote the creative use of team work a million times better then a generic calavary battle

Obtaining a headband from the enemy is in the same ballpark as what they did in season one. The Calvary Battle formation forces teamwork and coordination. It requires all of that before they even make the formation.
>Deciding on a leader
>A shield/attacker
>Support/logistics

Did you not see how well the teams worked together and utilized each other? Compensating for Kaminari's attacks hitting everyone, Deku's team being weightless, Bakugou can fly off and be brought back in my Sero.

Why wouldn't Hori put a spin on standard high school sports festival activities? In a fucking world with quirks where they even mentioned that the Olympics are a thing of the past. U.A is still a high school, so of course they're going to have a sports festival and of course it's going to involve quirks. Just say you didn't like the arc and move on. The events made sense and were explained.

The audience is seen being impressed with everything Todoroki did to maintain first place, so obviously pros are interested. You can't be this dense.

One Punch Man is a parody of Anpanman which is older than your parents. Calling it 'capeshit' assumes incorrectly that it has anything to do whatsoever with the modern superhero film genre. Which it doesn't.
