Anyone who is not obsessed with thinking that any work of fiction with even the slightest bit of action in it must strictly adhere to the MC being an eternal underdog no matter what for the sake of MUH stakes.
>>
>>284638744
Okay, follow up question. What caused you to think it was okay to post this specific image in this specific thread, or any thread for that matter?
>>
>>284638687
Subhumans that consume fiction to fantasize about how cool it would be if they were an op MC.
>>
>>284638687
Well, you are the one who apparently watched at least 8 episodes of it. I didn't even know this existed.
>>
>>284638687
Would it be good if the MC is a worthless piece of shit that can't do anything instead?
I'm sure if the author is good enough they can make anything enjoyable, doesn't even matter if there's stake or not >>284641522
>>
>>284638687
Had fun breezing through the manga, I read a lot of junk to pass the time, so already knew the series and watched it at 1.5x speed.
>>
>>284638687
This certainly inhibits the character's growth. Is the story about anything else?
>>
I always find it funny, some of the same people who consume shit like this then goes on to complain about Mary Sues in other shows.
>>
>>284638687
congratulations you're too dumb to understand a grade school level story

>>284638687
Unapologetic power fantasies are fun
It's only bad when the author gets over his head and tries to turn it into an actual story

I hate how he looks so lame. If he looked like Guts or Kenshiro, it would make more sense.

The MC is pretty much literally me though, I might seem weak in the eyes of others but if I actually try, I'll become way better than their worthless asses, it didn't happen only because there's no reason for me to do so.
>>
>>284638687
people who are weak and useless irl so escapist power fantasy

>>284638687
I only watch isekai if MC is a cute girl

>>284642425
>you can either be a demi-god who kills people with the slightest touch or an eternal shitter, no in-between
>>
>>284638687
You got it backwards. The MC is a prodigy at nothing, he's the unluckiest person in the world whereas the others are prodigies with literal god-given talents + a lifetime dedicated to honing that talent. But talent can't match up to the MC's hard work. It's satisfying because the more deserving underdog achieves a deserved victory. And it's doubly satisfying because he goes around mastering everything whereas the others are so short-sighted that they don't even go beyond a single field.

A lot of modern anime/manga feels like fanfiction.

If Naruto was made today, it'd be like of those shitty fanfics where he's OP and every girl wants to fuck him
>>
>>284647359
So, it's satisfying because the MC has the talent of not being a blithering idiot?

Isekai and self-inserting are currently destroying an entire generation of men and feminizing them.

You are a fat loser who watches isekaislop every season because it fulfils your need for escapism, quality is irrelevant to you.
>>
it's isekai power fantasy slop without the isekai
>>
>>284652058
Power is only satisfying or admirable when it's earned, nobody respects powerful people who never worked for it.
>>
>>284652282
No, the world destroyed them, Isekai and self inserting are the result
>>
>>284653338
You should quit making excuses for how fucking weak you are.
>>
>>284653381
Nobody is making excuses. Anyone with a fucking brain can see that Isekai is a symptom, not the problem.
>>
>>284653482
Just because it's a symptom doesn't make it any less of a problem, especially when this problem has only grown far more prominent over the past decade and a half.

>Isekai wasn't as popular a decade or ago
>Financial crisis after financial crisis happens, worldwide loneliness epidemic happens

>NTR and race-related fetishes start to skyrocket

MC doesn't need to be an eternal underdog but in an action series there needs to be some kind of challenge to the characters.

OPM is a good one-dimensional example of this. Saitama is OP but the drama comes from the supporting characters around him struggling, facing challenges, dealing with self doubt. And there's a little bit of drama with how he doesn't feel anything but boredom anymore.

Or even Superman, who is OP but most of the drama (aside from some characters like Darkseid or Doomsday that match him) comes from interesting villains, him being super strong but having some vulnerabilities (magic, psychic stuff), side characters, living in a world made of cardboard, etc

Compare to this show where every episode is
>character finds some new skill
>other people say it takes years to learn or he's too young or it's impossible for a classless person to learn
>he masters the skill in 5 minutes and does it better than masters who have been doing it for decades
>rinse repeat
>>
>>284651966
>Naruto
>Isn't OP
>>
>>284653514
Something cannot be both a symptom and a problem.

When the problem is fixed, the symptom goes away with it. Attacking the symptom accomplishes nothing.
>>
>>284653602
On paper he should be, but in practice, he struggles a lot.
>>
Bad anime must exist for us to know good anime. Things like this make anime like Attack on Titan good. You may have noticed that midwits absolutely hated the ending because Eren chose to fight the system instead of becoming just another NPC who's bound by it, despite the system turning him into a God. To be fair, you have to be very high IQ to get the recursive, ironic foreshadowing of something attacking a titan, that something being a titan itself, who in fact, promised to kill all of them, not sparing a single one, even himself. Total Titan Death. Total power fantasy slop death. Total self insert death. Eren grew up to be a real mature adult and lots of powershitters hated that.
>>
>>284653610
People are more terminally online and addicted to porn more than ever. Isekai and self-inserting developed into its own disease.
>>
>>284653801
Yes, because there's no real life community anymore. All of the alternatives to the internet or porn have vanished.
>>
>>284641726
it's not even cool because the MC doesn't do anything cool with it. it's
>people say he can't learn it
>he learns it in 5 minutes
>he does it better than somebody who has been spending decades learning it
he doesn't actually do anything interesting with any of it
also it doesn't help that the MC has zero personality
>>284642425
there's a middle road retard-kun
>>284643513
power fantasies are only fun when the overpowered characters do something fun with it. like goku or superman using their overpowered abilities to have a badass fight with some universe-threatening villain

this show is the equivalent of goku watching roshi do the kamehameha once, immediately knowing how to do it better than roshi, and then never using it again because he has to learn another skill
>>284647359
You have it backwards. He's a prodigy because he can watch somebody who has a goddess-given power and immediately knows how to do their skills better than them.
>>
>>284653853
>He's a prodigy because he can watch somebody who has a goddess-given power and immediately knows how to do their skills better than them.
That's because he works hard. Anybody could do the same if they worked as hard as the MC does.
>>
>>284653853
Dragon Ball stopped being good when original series ended though. Goku actually struggled and had to grow a bit as a kid, especially mentally, Dragon Ball Z is total slop in comparison.
>>
>>284638744
Bottom right ??
>>
>>284653984
yh but the point remains about dragonball and how that was good as opposed to this slop

My random guess would be Kijin Gentoushou
I only watched the first episode of that trash though and tried to completely wipe it from my mind
If it is not the scene at the end of the first episode then no idea
>>
>>284658634
Yea its Kijin Gentoushou. It was supposed to be a tragic discarding of love for duty, but the way it went down just soured everyone. Even the guy in that situation thought it was fucked up as MC's girl threw herself at him while MC was out defending them from demons. But she gets killed and is revived as a demon by the evil imouto many years later, allowing mc to devour her with his demon arm, uniting them forever

I go dumpster driving nowadays, reading everything from isekai with game mechanics with very strong MC getting expelled, most are gay and cringe like the one in the OP but some are actually pretty good.
>>
>>284659005
Damn no wonder no one talked about this show. That sounds terrible.
>>
>>284659615
The story turned out really well I thought, but that episode 1 was a fumble. That and the budget running out before the end of the second cour

>>
>>284651966
That's because web novels are just shitty self-published fanfiction.

Which ones stood out to you?
>>
>>284644872
He's a tits guy. Flats just don't work.
>>
>>284638687
That's not the offensive part, though I can see why people wouldn't like it, it's slop most of the time. What really makes me hate a protagonist is when all of the above is true, in addition to him being the reigning nowayfag champion of the universe who also somehow doesn't understand that he's practically a demigod among mortals. Even hiding power level slop isn't so bad, as long as there's a good reason for it and the MC knows what he's capable of and doesn't act like a colossal raging faggot.

Pic related is power trip MC done absolutely right, for reference.
>>
>>284653984
That is the exact opposite of true. Did you forget the obscene levels of Goku wank during the Baba arc? The Devilman fight is so retarded it sounds like a parody.
>Wow Goku is shitting on this guy without even trying
>By the way this guy won the Tenkaichi Budokai twice Goku is just that good
>Oh no he’s using the move that can kill anyone in one hit
>Hooray it didn’t work on Goku because he’s literally perfect in every way
In the later parts of the manga Goku actually struggles and relies on his friends and sacrifices himself

I don't mind the series. I only recently started to get into it now that he's in his "mage arc". I just wish there was more of a point then him getting stronger and making everyone look like morons. The comedy has been fun and is very much carrying the series.
