Frieren is literally the same thing as To Your Eternity. I don't get why modern mangaka keeps doing this. The amount of plagiarism in the manga industry is insane. Even China is trying out new ideas instead of rehashing the same shit over and over. There's barely any originality left, just endless generic isekai and clones of each other. >inb4 butthurt Frieren fans start malding Go watch To Your Eternity first, then come back and tell me it's not the same story.
>>283622660There is no original work, everybody copies off each other Tolkien stole all his ideas from Finnish mythology, mixed with Beowulf and repackaged it for 20th century Anglo
>>283622660There's no such thing as a new story, just a new storyteller I don't think Frieren has much to apologize for That being said, I don't excuse the endless deluge of isekai slop like holy shit it's so uncreative, how does someone even write that without just dropping the pen and asking what the hell they're doing this for if they aren't even going to try
>>283622660>Frieren is literally the same thing as To Your EternityIt's closer to Shinsekai yori than to Fumetsu
every work of human imagination builds upon what was previously seen, told, written or experienced. since forever and always forevermore.
>>283622794>Closer to Shinsekai YoriExplain further.Depending on your answer I may actually watch an episode of Frieren.
>>283622918Honestly, saying it's anything like SSY at all is probably extremely generous for Frieren. But if an SSY fan watches it, they should be able to see a clear influence.
This is all on you, mostly. Also lmao for that China glazing, how much social credit did you get?
>>283622660Your favorite manga/anime also copied from a lot of works. There is simply no such thing as purely original work.
Nearly everything within the sortiment of manga/anime is some sort of trend-chaser. Editors are well known to suggest themes to authors/artists instead of the latter coming up with it.
>>283622660>Go watch To Your Eternity first, then come back and tell me it's not the same story.its closer to Dragon Ball(not z) than it is to Fumetsu
>>283622660OP will learn that eventually it all comes down to presentation and execution of the premise instead of hanging by its novelty.
>>283623555i read ~15 chapters of this and liked it but dropped for some reason. is it worth picking up again?
>>283623588>Chapter 15 Teo's farewell and leaving the townDunno why would you drop it at that point? But yeah I guess you can continue from there.
>>283623869im asking if the series as a whole is worth reading
>>283622660To your eternity was much better than Freiren. Freiren feels like a oneshot idea that got stretched out into a seemingly endless shonen manga mould. Doesn't really feel like anything's really progressed in either the story or the character arcs. The main characters just perpetually bumble into new boring story arcs and solve them with zero fanfare. 99% of the characters coming across like deadpan robots doesn't help.
>>283622660>Even China is trying out new ideaslmao
>>283622660>Go watch To Your EternityI tried, but it was abysmal.
>>283623923I don't know what's worth for you. You already dropped it so maybe it's not worth your time. As for me, Ramune's autism is worth my time.
I haven’t watched this show yet, but I know it’s going to be really great because all the hate it gets is as shallow as it can be
>>283624472it's not tho. any avg isekai or even shounen brvtally mogs this tryhard trash. only ironic weebs and pseudo-intellectuals like this moeshit garbage
>>283624559Okay shounentard
>>283622794>closer to Shinsekai yoriDie
>>283622896>upon what was previously seenTherefore there is a "previously never seen" somewhere.
>>283624675i don't like frieren, but the writer was clearly influenced by ssy
>>283622660Pitch your idea.
>>283623380I wonder how many of these obvious (if you know both works) similarities I'm missing all the time.It's the same with vidya OSTs. Cool soundtrack? But oh, it's an almost 1:1 copy of Yngwie Malmsteen.
>>283624737care to expand?I can't see the similarities, not in genre, in tone, in pacing or even the premise.
>>283624559Way to double down on "all the hate it gets is as shallow as it can be".
>>283624944>it's deep because characters die from old ageIt's actually Frieren that's shallow.
>>283622660>Frieren is literally the same thing as To Your EternityI don't see it. The only notable parallel is pondering immortality, but in Fumetsu it slowly creeps in as it goes on and on, while in Frieren it's viewed as a snapshot from later on.
>>283622660>>283622698>Tolkien stole all his ideas from Finnish mythology, mixed with Beowulf and repackaged it for 20th century AngloHe also copied several things from the Sienkiewicz trilogy, the most notable is Boromir's death. Ironically the movies actually changed that particular scene by adding the movie-original character Lurtz there, which gives further credence to the idea.
>>283622660I dropped To your eternity after the 3 first arcs were literally the same shit.1- introduce cute new characters2-have a couple of episodes of stuff going well so you get emotionally invested3-they die4-go to 1
>>283625934>>283622698That's really interesting and I had no idea about any of that. Would you say Tolkien is a base of most TTRPG or typical isekai JRPG worlds at all though?also, feel free to report for off topic but I made a group as a secondary place to post what you're enjoying and invite anons sometimes. If you're okay with being genuine and kind to each other you can take a look here, it's much easier than it seems. pastebin.com/RFk9GRmH
>Go watch To Your Eternity first, then come back and tell me it's not the same story.It's not the same story.
Did you know Code Geass is just a really shitty ripoff of another mecha anime made in 1979? Did you know Lelouche is just a really shitty copy of another character that is famous for having a bunch of shitty copies of him?
Why do you think there are a minimum of 2 or 3 daily threads with the same picture shitting on Frieren?Is it really impossible for tourist-filled modern /a/ to ignore obvious troll threads?
