>Character is bad>Called sinBAD
>>283471765>Essentially God>Does boring paperworkThe Japanese really can't help themselves
>>283471765I remember liking Magi, but in the end this is the only thing I remember from it.
>>283471765Reading One Piece where most of the major characters are in their 40s or older and then going back to Magi where most of the characters are under 30 is wild.
>>283472014all i remember is the shota beat the edgy magician and the blonde guy lost with the edgy swordsman. and all the goyim references
>>283471765>layer of gods above you>they are actually just humans doing boring human politics
>>283471986>>283472255This is a Chinese thing, actually. Their Daoism mythology is literally just a bureaucracy that's in the sky.
>>283471765The Magi storytime from 2 years ago really solidified this and Adventure of Sinbad into one of my favourite shounen mangas. Just great stuff all aorund, even if somewhat rushed
>>283472296truly bugmen
>>283471986Have you read Water Margin or Journey to the West? Ancient China was astoundingly bureaucratic. Chapters of chapters of people stamping papers to get other more interesting people places.
>>283471765Thanks for reminding me of that fap scenario I made up where Arba sucks the dick of bureaucrat Sinbad like it's her god while Jafar watch from a peephole and faps
>>283473169bugs don't fill out paperwork
>>283472255>>283472296>>283473179Is Sinbad a protagonist cultivator lost in a manga?
>>283471765God I love Magi so much, I hope Ohtaka starts a new series soon now that Orient's ended
>>283471765he wasnt bad retard
>>283474710Orient wwas shit thoughOhtaka is washed
>>283476214Orient wasn't good, but I liked Magi more than enough to forgive her for it
>>283471765>character's name is "Lügner" (eng. Liar)>he lied
>>283473144finally a reason to post this
>>283476586Frieren reaches such extreme heights of meta-derivation that it loops back to being beyond uninspired, most evidenced by these retarded names of its characters
>>283476637While I doubt animeonlies would've liked an entire season of flashback arc, it still would've been great.
>>283471765Sinbad did nothing wrong it was fates fault
>>283474695sinbad is a shonen protagonist after the end of his own mangadidn't die a a hero, so ended up the villain
>>283472014The Harry Potter arc does probably the most heavy lifting of the story and it's the pivotal arc before things devolve into total war and more varied story quality. Even during the storytime, I remember those threads getting the most traction and not just because of the Goi memes. >>283476637Grill Master David was the best thing to come out of the flashback arc.
>>283477778While David memes were hot and crunchy, Alma Torran arc was a worldbuilding wonder of an arc. If only Ohtaka had some breathing space, just a volume more to properly finish it off.And same goes for the final arc. It's great as it is, but without retarded editorial decisions, it would be perfect.
I thought this was neat.
