Busou Renkin. I liked Kenichi more until the manga went to shit.

>>161157039
Still can't believe this was a fucking fakeout. Fuck this fucking shit. This is why toriboi got cancelled and rightfully so.

>>161157119
It's WSJ what you expect?

>>161155471
NnT too

>>161155471
The two you just posted. Everything else is shit. I read Seinen mostly.

>>161155640
Kingdom is my favorite manga.

>>161155471
You just posted them.
I was reading Nanatsu since the very beginning and despite a weaker second half (mainly because Nakaba went ill during it) it picks up the pace once again and both the character interactions and battle choreography are among the best i've seen in the entire fucking genre.

I also appreciate that Xenogears/Automata-like love story, he loves jrpgs and it shows.

>>161160547
One Piece and Nanatsu are actually both much better gash bell from art to story.

Yugioh

>>161155471
Tsubasa and JJBA are my favourites

>>161155471
Air Gear.

>>161155471
Strictly shounen and battle, i'd say the ones i enjoyed most are yu yu hakusho and flame of recca. For younger people i'd recommend Mär.

Psyren.

Relatively short, satisfying, good characters and development, just like shounen should be.

>>161155471
Good picks. These two are the best currently running battle shounen.

Dragon Ball and Jojo

I like others but after reading those two everything else feels derivative as fuck, at least on Jump and Sunday

>>161155471
For ongoing, probably the two that you posted. If it's finished series, then Houshin Engi comes to mind. Great ride from beginning till end.

HxH or World Trigger.
Kimetsu is bretty good too.

>>161162795
the strategies are good, but in terms of characterization and plot world trigger is poor as fuck.

>>161163612
what? the fights in kimetsu are awful.

>>161163774
They are just retro as fuck, that's fine with me.

>>161155471
Kongoh Bancho>Nanatsu no Taizai

I really don't understand this World Trigger cult. People often talk about the series as if it were the new HxH.

>>161163739
>characterization and plot
i'm fine with both. they're good enough and the battles are top tier making this is a really good series overall.

>>161164096
The fights are HxH-tier.

>>161164149
>>161164283
The characters exist solely to make and talk about strategies, they have no nuances. The plot exists solely for training and rankings, has no progression. And although the fights are creative, they have virtually no stakes.

HxH have charismatic characters with touching personal dramas, unique designs and fights that push their psychological and physical state to the fullest.

I'm not saying WT it's rubbish or anything, but I really can not see anything memorable.

>>161164014
No. KB was good but had an enormous villain of the week vibe, way weaker character interactions and weaker writing in general. It has nothing like Meliodas/Ban bromance or Ban-tier characters in general.

>>161162810
absolute great taste my man

>>161164432
Because KB is supposed to be a comedy an not a shonen.

god tier

Bleach

It's simple and easy to read, I like the characters, the powers are entertaining and honestly, aside from villains there isn't that big a power creep in this except for the main character and villain and it's appropriate because they're the main character and villain.

After all these years I'm still mad

>>161165325
But the fun is precisely in thinking that MAYBE they can get hurt or die. When this is discarded, why should I care about them or their fights?

>>161165468
>almost
The author should do a sports manga instead (btw, even Haikyuu has more tension), not a survival one.

>>161155471
Current favorites is NnT. I also like Dr. Stone, and Neverland but pray they never drift into Battle territory.

>>161165325
>>161165388
>>161165468
not him, but, world trigger giving the characters "fake" bodies to fight just means they can lose more often as their real bodies are fine. and considering that the story seems to be an infinite training for rankings, the fights become quite apathetic, as if everything were just simulation.

It's interesting how OP and NnT are also the best selling series of their respective magazines.

>>161166135
and both have 'captains',

It literally is.

>>161165167
Wild guess - you're Academia fag?

>>161166135
Does NnT have a good world building too? I'm planning to read it and I'd love to see there some cool places that character visit, like in OP.

>>161166678
i'm a hxhfag.

Hunter x Hunter because it's so well written that it's just amazing. Togashi is literally a master of foreshadowing, for he has foreshadowed O my rubber nen since Chrollo been chained by the chain dude and it is mentioned again when Gon smashes Pitou's head. He also forshadowed Shalnark's death during Yorkshin arc with the prophecy. Even the bomb Meruem: King of the ants got nuked with was foreshadowed in the previous arc, Greed Island, where we find out that Genthru's ability goes by the name "Ritiru furoweru" which translates directly to "Little flower", and implication that it is a small bomb compared to the big bomb wich explodes in the shape of a flower.
Also, the fights are very interesting as Togashi managed to reduce the powerlevel horseshit as much as possible.
I would love to hear what anime/manga you find similar to this well-crafted series because I personally haven't found anything that even comes close to its greatness.

Think about Final Fantasy 9's comfiness with a vibe of Arthurian legends and occasional cool places like that. That's basically NNT.

The protagonist visit the same places more often than not. It's not like One Piece where every arc is a different island. But the world building is decent, probably around Naruto level.

>>161166770

Then Toriko might interest you too. It's gone downhill only in the last 50 or so chapters.

Yu-gi-oh desu

>Academy is much more fun and interesting in terms of characters, interactions and overall development
Academia is shit when it comes to all of these though. Here's hoping you're shit posting and that WT isn't actually inferior than MHA in these categories. I was planning on reading it soon.
