Was it the first shonen?
>>284855233The fact you say this instead of the Illiad shows how much of a redditor secondary you areYou only know about this work because of the upcoming movie. Pls kys
>>284855325They're both taught in high schools everywhere in the West, dumbfuck.
>>284855325Are you seriously getting a superiority complex because you know about the fucking Illiad? Come back when you're 18 retard.
>>284855340>>284855373Then why didn't you say the Illiad, retard? When the Odyssey is a sequel to the IlliadGuess you must not be from the west, Jeetoid. Or you didn't go to school. Don't respond anymore, I've already owned you beyond rebuttal
>>284855233Nope. That'd be Gilgamesh. Two bros, hot chicks, the power of friendship.
>>284855378The Odyssey has always been the more recognizable one and is the one that is usually taught first in schools.
>>284855233Gilgamesh, then Momotaro
>>284855325>>284855378brown hands typed these posts
>>284855437That would be totally retarded and definitely isn't a lie you made up to save face, embarrassing. >>284855390>>284855438Gilgamesh came after Homer.
>>284855437>more recognizable one>>284855233>Was it the first shonen?Retard
>>284855508I don't give a fuck about the wording of this garbage ass retarded thread, I just wanted to make sure this self-important retard had somebody call him a faggot at least for being wrong.
lol nerds

>>284855233>Story about an over powered asshole who's absolutely fixated on his bro rival
>>284855733>World's oldest classics are all filled with yaoibaitANSWER this, yuriniggers
>>284855531But is he wrong? Doesn't seem like it. The Illiad comes before the Odyssey, the Illiad might arguably be even more popular given Achilles is way more well known than Odysseus and there was already a popular movie based on it, and at least for me, I'm pretty sure the Illiad was taught before the Odyssey, as would make sense.>>284855768Boys rule, girls drool.
I didn't expect so much shitflinging over a silly topic
>GilgameshI'd be remiss at this point if I didn't point out that it was actually preceded by an even older Sumerian romcom about his parents titled 'The (Inchoate) Marriage of Lugalbanda and Ninsumuna'.I am not making this up.
Fate Circe a cute
>>284855490>Gilgamesh came after Homer.What?
Is this what it looks like when /lit/ leaks?
>>284856405He's retarded. Pay him no mind.
>>284855378>>284855325the illiad is seinenthe odyssey is shonen
>>284855807>Achilles is way more well known than OdysseusIs he? Sure, you've got the term Achilles heal, but that's not even from the Illiad. Everyone knows about the guy who keeps getting lost on his way home, blinds the cyclops, gets his men turned to pigs, binds himself to the mast to hear the sirens, etc. Achilles doesn't really have such memorable stories other than being a strong guy.
>>284855807>and there was already a popular movie based on itThere was a movie based on it. It was neither good, nor is it popular. Also fuck you, Jason rules.

>>284855325They're both cats so it's not beastiality
>>284855233Which magazine was it published in
Neoptolemus is my favorite edgy MCBeating an old man to death with his grandson is just special.
>>284855390Probably the flood myth is even older than Gilgamesh. It's referenced in one of his adventures, so it was probably an already established story even at the time.
>>284857454The Pleiades/Seven Sisters soloCGDCT is eternal shounenplebs

>>284857471Imagine getting rejected so hard by all main waifus that they turn into stars to get as far away from you.
Athenians were the original waifufags.
>Once, as he was getting on past boyhood, he accosted a school-teacher, and asked him for a book of Homer. The teacher replied that he had nothing of Homer's, whereupon Alcibiades fetched him a blow with his fist, and went his way. who was in the wrong here
>>284857781>whereupon Alcibiades fetched him a blow with his fistInnuendo?
>>284855768they were just very good friends
>>284857107>Achilles other claim to fame is sulking in his tent.I hate these overly emotional modern shounen MCs that keep crying over their harem or whatever. Odysseus was a manly man from a manly shounen.
Is Beowulf a shonen?
