The author is referred to with masculine pronouns at some point at the end of some volume (translation mistake), but she is actually a woman. She apparently appeared on some podcast, and she is a woman, yes.

Sensei never gives up on Reiji, though. Most other female mangaka would have had her give up and sleep with some random male character. Sensei's portrayal is also top notch. Also it's left ambiguous at the end whether it's her or Aoe that he's living with. Thematically it must be Aoe yes but it's left open to interpretation.

Same. If they hadn't rushed it, it could've been another long running quality seinen like LoGH or Vinland Saga.

>>274784850
She doesn't, but she's added material and nuance in the adaptation and it's getting a manga original ending. Presumably she doesn't want to spend another 10 years drawing part 2 when she's got another successful original series running. All her other series, especially silver Spoon, are solid.

Correct answers include Mushishi and Houseki no Kuni.

If the author of a shonen manga is female, the MC is usually polite, determined and bright.
If the author is a male, they're gonna thrust the MC in front of girls and encourage them to act rebelious.

Shonen authors treat their main character like a son.

Honestly not really. Inuyasha also has similar repeated jokes that can get stale after a while and the story sort of felt like a drag. Maybe it’s because I watched the anime. Non important but I liked Kikyo a lot.

It's unknow. The artist is female, but we never got any official confirmation about the writer's gender. There was some French website that associated a female picture with the author's name but no one ever found the source of that.

Because none of what you said is true. The characters are very bare bones and tropey. The world is quite generic. The cooking aspect of the show is whatever. The plot is retarded. It's entertaining enough for 1 read, but it's like a 6/10 at best.

Yeah, sure. A one track minded retard protag, an aloof competent guy with a soft spot for his teammates, an upright clutz female character, a tsundere-coded cunt and a wild card with a bizarre interest are something never heard about in the medium before Meshi entered the stage.

I'm happy you value works of Meshi caliber so highly. It's better to be able derive enjoyment from more things than less, but don't kid yourself: it's a very whatever series at the end of the day by most metrics.

What does his competence matter? Is he retarded? Yes he is. Is he prone to making stupid decisions because of his obsession? Yes he is. His competence whatever it may be is of no relevance and in no way makes him any less generic. Cope.

Anime wise they're both equally good
Manga wise FMA mogs Inuyasha any day


Takahashi was at peak with Ranma 12, Ranma 12 had Kubo tier awesome art.
However
Takahashi's art skills kinda fell off during Inuyasha, the faces got way too angular and everything is un-detailed compared to Ranma where every page is pure shounen sovl

Frieren is very obviously made by a woman or at least a woman is in actual charge of the major tone and narration.

It has a very un-male perspective on adventure stuff and sense of justice (a male mangaka would also either redeem Aura into friendship talk or graphically rape her the Berserk way). Killing a pretty woman for zero reason is kinda a wiminz thing
