What went wrong?

I honestly want a Lum and To Love Ru crossover.

UY is unfunny and unfappable.

>>161788882
One had an alpha MC.
The other had a pussy MC.

>it's older so it's better

Whoa, great argument.

>>161789513
Nobody made that argument though. It's better for a whole range of other reasons.

Hello idiot.

Two romantic comedies, just that one focuses more on the comedy aspect while the other focuses more on the romance (before it drops both aspects and focuses on naked skin)

>>161796015
>while the other focuses more on the romance
Shitty romance and utterly asinine humor.

It was popular in buyfag threads, it did a good job at making the readers form a connection with the characters.

Top makes otaku jealous and butthurt because they can't waifu the girl since she's pretty much officially engaged.
Meanwhile the bottom one makes them think "the dude is a fucking faggot who doesn't want the girl so I may have a chance"

Shonen jump happened, if you meant the manga.
While UY is far better than TLR in animated form, I've seen few people discussing about the manga. I know, TLR:D and even the ending of the original are pretty bad, but for about a 100 chapter TLR manager to be actually enjoyable, a thing that you can't say about UY.

Lum is a very well done anime but I hate every single character in it.

>>161798101
>a thing that you can't say about UY
But I can? The Urusei Yatsura manga is considered a classic.

>From Homewrecking: The Anime to Generic Harem: The Anime
What went worse?

>>161789856
>It's better for a whole range of other reasons.
And a whole lack of arguments

>>161798101
>a thing that you can't say about UY.
What? I read all of the UY manga in two weeks.

>>161798213
>Homewrecking: The Anime
You do know that Shinobu dumped Ataru in the first chapter of the manga, and only came back because of the fact that he had an alien in his house, right? And that she gave up on him for Mendou the second he was introduced, right?

>>161798184
>is considered a classic.
A classic Is not always a good classic.

>>161798220
I'm not arguing with you if you haven't seen both shows. Continue being retarded at your leisure.

>>161798317
No, but chances are a large fanbase with several people heralding it as a classic is a better indicator of quality than one retard on /a/ saying it's not enjoyable.

>>161788882
Nothing, since LoveRuDarkness completely crushes both shows.

Tlru is fucking trash garbage

>>161798420
Chances also are that something being old automatically gets a bunch of cocksucking mongoloids hail it as the greatest thing ever simply because its old and only few members of the current anime audience have seen it. As can be observed with most of Gundam or LotGH. Not even gonna start one these people who pretend of Gunbuster, Bubblegum Crisis, Touch etc. are actually well written shows.

>>161798549
>cocksucking mongoloids
Like you?

Again, heralded by many as a classic in Japan, and influenced countless well-respected authors. It's their word against yours, the retard on /a/ who likes to chuck "well-written" and "not well-written" labels on things, without actually understanding what constitutes a work being well-written. Notice how you're yet to actually explain how it's poorly written, or how TLR was "actually enjoyable" by comparison; it only further proves my point here.

>>161798662
>as a classic in Japan
You can repeat this as often as you want it wont make it any more relevant.

>influenced countless well-respected authors
Congrats. The first stone wheel also had more influence than any other wheel that came after it. Doesnt mean that its a better product than the newest Bridgestone tire so I'd appreciate it if you'd at least try to use your brain prior to submitting your deranged comments.

>>161798253
>What? I read all of the UY manga in two weeks
I'm not arguing that UY can't be enjoyable for a lot of people, a classic is a classic, but that doesn't mean it's good.
>>161798184
>>161798420
>No, but chances are a large fanbase with several people heralding it as a classic is a better indicator of quality than one retard on /a/ saying it's not enjoyable
Actually it doesn't.
To prove that, let's just assume what you said it's true, than let's talk about another classic manga: Dragon Ball.
Can you really say it's extrimely large fanbase indicate the good quality of the series? The long time and more mature fans of the manga recognize that the second part, pratically Dragon Ball Z, is extrimely weak, despite being the most famous part of the manga.
Even the newbies quite often agree on that, and let's not talk about how trash Super is.
So no, incredibly rarely a large fanbase means that something is good.
Also, while UY and DB are classic that still get a lot of recognition, don't misuse the term, since LWaC is considered one of real classic of the medium, despite not being really that famous.

>>161798759
>but that doesn't mean it's good.
And what does mean it's good?
Also, I didn't read it when I was a little kid. I was an adult, and it was only a few years ago, so it's not nostalgia.

>>161798759
>Actually it doesn't.
>one shitter on /a/ more reliable than several respected authors
Stopped reading there, you're an idiot.

>>161798695
>You can repeat this as often as you want it wont make it any more relevant.
Same applies to you. You still haven't explained why TLR is more enjoyable than the UY manga.

Probably because you're retarded.

>>161788882
One was written by one of the greatest mangaka of all time
The other was written by a talentless hack

>>161799168
Personally for me given how shitty most respected authors are I would rather accept the opinion of them underage on /a/ here. At least they keep it to a cesspit.

I know this is a UY thread, but yeah, I connected with the characters in TLR.
I could write an entire thesis about how the manga uses physical comedy and farcical sexual fantasy to talk about the nature of human relationships.

>>161799062
What makes a good manga is hard to say, since the medium, even considering comics, is really young.
Still, good pacing and writing, being abile to manage the focus of the story, good art and paneling are usually what makes a good manga.
And UY have weak paneling and art in my opinion, and quite sometime it loses focus and start to digress a bit, unlike the first part of TLR.
With that I didn't mean that Yabuki work is better than Takahashi, I just wanted to to say that TLR isn't as trash as a lot of people say it is and that UY has some substantial flow and isn't the masterpiece unlike a lot of people belive.

>>161800358
>Still, good pacing and writing, being abile to manage the focus of the story,
Now, remember, UY is an episodic comedy, and has never pretended to be anything else. And it does that well. It has great pacing and writing. I thought it was funny, and it never had any long portions that dragged on.
>good art and paneling
The art was great. I had no complaints regarding the paneling.
Have you even read UY? If so, did you come in looking for a comedy, or a RomCom?
Now, the UY anime is better than the manga, but that's only saying that gold is better than silver. They were both great.

>>161791288
lmao dafuck

>>161800358
>Still, I can't belive you like to eat shit just because the others do.
You literally said 1(one) retard on /a/ is a more reliable source than SEVERAL people, including well-respected manga authors.

How credible the word of said authors is up for debate, but it doesn't change the fact that you're a hilariously stupid idiot.

>>161800358
UY has very good comedic writing. The characters are also all very endearing because they all want something they can't possibly get. That's why people get so attached to UY.

>>161800358
>i-it hard to say what make good m-manga

Well, I prefer less episodic series to be honest, which was one of the few things TLR did well at the beginning.
But yeah I agree on most of what you said, UY has great pacing and writing, but I have to disagree on the art and paneling. Takahashi suffer a bit from that annoying trend of using a ton of dynamic of motion lines, and just stuffing too much in a panel. Also, yes UY anime is a great adaptation.
>>161800537
Still doesn't change the fact that you like to eat shit.
One retard can be more reliable of several people, it's rare, but not that much.
Even if a lot of people love something and have a strong opinion on it, quite sometimes they're just blinded by ignorance or social customs.
Hell, a common /a/non is proud that this taste are different from the masses.
You could argue that is just because we're edgy contrarian, and that us denying the word of a critic is stupid, but you're wrong.
The popularity of something is the worst indicator of it's own quality, especially art.
There is a lot of good stuff that is forgotten every year despite being incredibly good and ground-braking, and there's a lot of trash that is elevated to classic just because it's loved by the masses. Just look at Hollywood, they haven't been able to produce anything worthwhile in 20 or more years.
Yet this doesn't stop the critics from praising them, simply because they need money, and money comes from pleasing the masses and not the few people that cares.
So yeah, I agree I can be a stupid idiot, but the discussion about the quality of something is indipendent from who and how many said something about it.
>>161800590
Well, it's actually what you usually see here on /a/, thought an original and plot also get praise, but that's really it.
If you happen to know what makes a good manga then you're welcome to enlighten me.
Also, I know I'm a dumb ESL-kun, and if my english is that bad then I'm ready to get banned, till then I'll continue to post.
