Who is right?
Japan because JJK sucks
>>285581734Fippy bippy.
Have you noticed there's this extreme culture of appeal to Japan in anime? It's like personal opinion doesn't matter, I've seen this conversation many a time>i liked this thing>uh well japan didn't so you're wrong
Are you fags gonna be making this exact same thread for the next 2 months?
>>285581704Japan, because their arguments are more solid
>>285581704JJK would be shit even if Japan loved it.
>>285581704Honestly, Maki isn't very attractive, even with her ponytail and glass.She is not ugly, but there are many chicks more beautiful than her.Even in Josei, the antagonists are generally more beautiful than her.Let's not forget that she did a "they're like animals, and i slaughtered them like animals" thing.
>>285581704I liked it but it's closer to a 5.7 than to a 9.8 for sure.
>>285581879You sound like that one female character expert, Kishimoto.
COG FLASH!!!!
Bluray sales when?
>>285581704From your image, Japan is clearly on the right side.
>>285581704Both wrongThat was a solid 7~8 episode
>>285581704The episode was too overindulgent, high off itself. Yeah the animation was nice, but in its attempts at being art it ended up messing up critical elements like Toji's appearance. It's not a critical moment, but manga readers hated Jinichi's mischaracterization too.People are implying it's East vs West but the issue is more manga readers vs anime onlys. If you've never touched the manga, you'll likely love the episode, but mangafags will be annoyed by it.
idk I didn't watch it because >>285581734
>>285581704FUCK OFF BACK TO IMDB YOU FUCKING FAGGOT
>>285581704>grr I hateu kirru birru>grr why didu jinichi-sama notto rook at ranta-sama (kyaaaaa~) when ranta-sama commit seppukku to stoppo maki?>grr you baka gaijin did notto rike za rast episode of tengen-sama expuraining za rulesI do not care what Japan thinks.
>>285581704Ok they hated the episode. But what do Japs think of Maki as a character. I'm really hoping SHF could still make Maki since I really like Toji. (hopefully i can still get him)
>>285581704japanjjk culling game is a fucking mess. well, the whole jjk is, but tthe culling game is just bad. there are some good moments, but it's just that, moments.
>>285581734fpbp
>>285581704what was actually wrong with it? I'm not a huge JJKfag but I thought it was great.
>>285581704Is this just because JJK is so wildly popular in Japan? JJK literally doesn't have the writing quality for nips to claim that Jinichi's mischaracterization is an insult to Gege's genius or something. Nips were apologists about ENGI butchering the visual appeal of Medalist and Houseki no Kuni switching to a moe CGI artstyle over the manga's graphic, 2D look and those were huge departures from the source material to the point where I'd consider it disrespectful of the author's art.
Japan has shit taste
>using imdb for animeauto loss, i'm afraid
>>285581704No one, should be like 3 or something if we are being honest.
>>285581734FPBP/thread
>>285581704>Who is right?If I'm reading that correctly, looks like Japan is on the right
I was wrong, bringback the MALfags. This IMDB cancer is fucking pathetic.
What's with mangakas' fetish for having contrived rules for death games? It used to be so much simpler and sensible like with Battle Royale.
>>285582153HxH's influence on brainlets.
>>285581704Taking in count the arguments of Japan are garbage I will say global.>they skipped this panel where Maki scratch her ear how could theySomeone has yet to tell me what exactly was missing from the manga that was THAT important.
>>285582106they turned serious tragic story into comedy i agree with japan but the animation still made it good enough for the episode to be entertaining for me
>>285581704>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>285582170No they did not. Nobody cared so much about Mai they would cry when she died. The sacrifice always came out of nowhere after a few underwhelming panels of an underwhelming relationship, and the massacre was always an overindulgent edgefest for actionfags.They just cranked it up a notch. I suppose Mappa could have turned it into a tragedy episode if they so wished and pull out the violins and the tremolos but that would have been much worse cinematography and probably would have required writing some amount of fanfic to sell it well and have people actually tear up about it. Because as it was the chapter is too weak writing wise. The reality is JJK is just rather casual about death toward its end. Gege doesn't cash in on the death of established secondary characters for the sake of emotion much, and Mai is no exception.
>>285581704was I supposed to remember any of the characters maki killed? because I only remembered like 1 or 2 of them
>>285581704Japan I'm afraid. Cool technical episode but everything about it is so forgettable
>>285581704surely all the americans and browns (repetitive, I know) on the left that have only watched JJK and another anime
>>285582170>they turned serious tragic story into comedyThey didnt. Gosho only copied Quentin Tarantino's ost for the Maki murder scenes to signify Maki attaining freedom from her clan.
>>285581704Japs are right. I never seen such a mid bullshit anime as JJK. I don';t know why americans glaze over these animations so much. They are wobbly, chaotic, and flashy, just like the animators had epilepsy. Most of the time you don't know what the fuck is happening. Choreography just sucks, and 100% depends on Zoomers Zoomin to the zooms in the screen. Story wise its shit. So yeah. Japs are right, you don't make good anime with only epilepsy animations.
>caring about normalfag ratingsfuck off faggots
Western audiences are just sycophantic hype chasers. They will give a high score to anything.
>>285582167This, some nip was claiming that JP viewers grade on a "deductive basis" where things that don't match with the manga are a negative while Westerners grade on an "additive basis" where improvements to the visual direction/animation are more important and I think that's bullshit. Everyone would rather an anime that deviates from the source material if it follows 98% of the manga and looks way fucking better than something that's 100% faithful but is full of traced-over manga panels and manga panels used as storyboards instead of cinematography/boarding fit for an animated medium. Otherwise Frieren wouldn't be the top anime, as it fixed a bunch of the wooden artwork and character acting from the manga and took plenty of creative liberties. Most popular yonkoma adaptations are also ones that greatly deviated from the source material and made it better like K-On and Bocchi the Rock.
>>285582462This
JJK is just Naruto/Bleach rehashed for zoomers. I don't hate it but it doesn't deserve to be praised as something unique
>>285582458Real life decides everything
>>285582501It's worse than those two in terms of storytelling. Gaygay regularly inserts pointless tangential plotlines that go nowhere in the story for shock factor. In comparison, Naruto builds up the Uchiha conspiracy across the years until the big reveal to Sasuke thru Tobi and Kubo maintains a consistent cast of characters and gives them enough backstory while not completely sidelining them (not to say he's perfect as his character cast is still very bloated but most receive appropriate attention and backstory).
>>285581704So why are they only taking issue with the spastic animation now?It's been like that since season 2 atleast
Nips finding out that Westerners are easily amused by flashy animation because of this and City winning the /a/ AOTY poll was a really funny coincidence.
>>285582453>I don';t know why americans glaze over these animations so much. They are wobbly, chaotic, and flashy, just like the animators had epilepsy. Most of the time you don't know what the fuck is happening. Choreography just sucks, and 100% depends on Zoomers Zoomin to the zooms in the screen.Americans have the attention span of fruit flies and all suffer from ADHD. These are the people who feed their brains a daily diet of sped-up 15-20 second videos on TikTok and YouTube that somehow manage to fit in a billion little cuts within that short timespan.Remember when people made fun of this Liam Neeson clip of him jumping a fence for having 14 cuts in 6 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCKhktcbfQMThis shit is the norm now. In fact, those aforementioned TikTok/YouTube shorts are even more spastic and frenetic in their editing. And it's only going to get worse over time.
>>285582501correct. time is a flat circle.
>>285582669True that brother. True that
>>285581704How about y'all just admit that Japan had made the ultimate pinnacle of exports to the Western world.A product that the West will never own but enjoy. A product that, with tweaking, can do more damage to the US than at Pearl Harbor during WWII.
maki is badass her new look is so much cooler than old one
>>285582919Agreed, honestly I barely registered her as a character before her sister killed herself.
>>285581778>extreme culture of appeal to Japan in anime?>anime made in japan appealing to japanhmmmmmmmmmm
>>285581734/thread
>>285582967Nta but not only are a lot of anime these days specifically made to appeal to foreign audiences (Sirius the Jaeger, TBHX, Star Wars Visions, etc), but why the fuck should we care? Most of us aren't japanese. Are we here to discuss anime or just to throw fallacies and arguments from authority at one another?
>>285582919She looks like genderswapped Toji nowNot that I disagree, I'm just saying
>>285581967>People are implying it's East vs West but the issue is more manga readers vs anime onlys.100% this. And that divide tends to be East vs West, because Japanese people are more likely to read the manga while westerners are more likely to be anime only.
>>285583072Congrats on figuring out Gege's intention with her design anon. I haven't seen a lot of people figure it out.
>>285582501Not only that but its also inferior even if the bar was already low. Look at the Uchiha purge. Itachi killing his whole clan is an important plot point that gets fleshed out and has consequences through all of the story. On JJK Maki kills her whole clan and no one cares because its just done as revenge porn for both the writer and the reader. The 9.8ers have grown on marvel and hollywood slop where "bad guys are bad and deserve getting killed and its even better when its a funny wonky death because they are bad". I just wish the CRAPPA and Netflix deal keeps these covid "weebs" contained until they move to their next hyperfixation to ruin.
>>285583023Go make another one of your anti-Japan threads then if this one makes you seethe so much.
>>285581704the west
>>285581778Everything looks good to plebs with minimal exposure to anything.
>>285582407First of all, the chuds are mostly the cancer normalfags watching shallow animeSecond, this is a west vs east preference, the episode was too action packed but not much meaning
>>285583238Nips rated it so low, because of how it was adapted.They don't have any issues with Maki killing the clan and it not having any repercussions.
>>285581704jjk and maki fucking suck. just like csm season 1
>>285581704japan, the director is a hack, on top of a shit plot - Gege you suck>le ebin hollywood references>please gaijin-kun give me good ratings
Where is that Japan rating even from?
she is so hot
>>285584367*slowly walks towards Maki while his friend is dying trying to keep her from moving*
>>285584020chuds are now normalfags, and love this episode? did I miss the memo?
>>285582579The argument isn't about the animation style, but about the tone the adaption took. The director, who probably talked to Gege beforehand, chose to do a Kill Bill homage, while some part of the japanese fandom thinks it should have been done as a tragedy. Those who come in to argue that the animation is bad are a separate bunch of retards who try to co-opt the original issue for their own ramblings.
>>285583254>u-ugh *random manichean deflection*Ok retard kek
>>285584486>it should have been done as a tragedyWas it really a tragedy?It always just read like a revenge porn power fantasy for Maki to me.It's not like it Maki had any big regrets or any of this shit came back to haunt her outside of Curseya coming back to literally haunt her and then get mogged to death by her.Like at best you get 1 page of maki nonchalantly saying she killed her mom and that she maybe shouldn't have done that.
>>285582106It's extremely odd directing and cinematography. Even the non-action segments felt like they were directed by an alien.
>>285581704Japan cares for the new fate anime more anyway.It's actually safe to say the JJK anime is made for foreigners not Japanese so it doesn't matter what Japan thinks. Meanwhile Fate gets Japan attention.
>>285585919>It always just read like a revenge porn power fantasy for Maki to me.It was. She doesn't look very disturbed about the fact that she's killing her childhood acquaintances to me.
>>285581704Japs, for once. The episode is completely all over the fucking place. It feels like the whole production team had a collective stroke and they were trying to give me a stroke too.
>>285581704Japan is always right
>>285581704Japanese people are very wierd with ratings, like when thiy give a 5/5 restourant a 3 star because some children in front of the restourant were to noisy.
>>285581704Global cause nips themselves are pandering to the filthy gaijinsStill makes me kek how JJK fags were high on their own farts saying how the """"movie"""" would do better than Chainsaw man's one and it flopped
The West because japanese readers didn't pick up on the Kill Bill analogies so they assumed it's an Itachi-style tragedy massacre.Classic manga reader headcanon dissonance.>>285586098Which is funny because Fate/Strange Fake is everything detractors claim JJK is. Flashy fights for the sake of it.I watch those episodes and feel nothing. Even the sakuga is very generic. I rather have experimental ideas like the Maki episode.
>>285581704More people should draw Maki's fat ass.
Japan because all the western arguments are just zoomer speak with half made thoughts, its like comparing the opinion of a normal person with a retard that only watch brainrot
>>285581704I dont give a shit what the Japanese (people known for having terminally shit taste) think. The episode was shit because MAPPA is shit, and this was one of the worst plot points in the endless sea of shit plot developments in JJK
>>285581704Only retards and faggots watch this shit, so everyone's wrong.
>>285581704Global hood weeb fatigue.
I would say its inbetween, like a 7-8. Ripping kill bill, so much/long, is lame. I think the episode was good and had some great direction, but that scene was really souring. Retard secondaries also think naoya showed up just to be zero diffed.
>>285581734No lies detected.
>>285581704I remember not really enjoyinh ep1, should I retry it?Also as much as I think I'm some cultured 4fag elitist, I can't help but like some of the phonk edits, especially Hakari's.
>>285581734I don't disagree with JJK sucking, S2 was a massive letdown and ep3 being a "lemme explain the rules in the most convoluted possible way" episode was incredibly retarded, but what specifically was so bad about ep4?
>>285588243It's fun if you read it for the hype and aura.Season 1 has the least amount of hyoe and aura.So if you like the hakari shitpost you'll probably like season 2 and onwardsnand I don't mean that in a dismissive way.It's the main reason why I enjoy this show.
>>285582177he have had only one minute of screen time but that's all he needed to win me over
>>285581704>GlobalAmerica you mean
>>285581704Honestly the entire reason it's rated so low is the weird music choice and how unserious the whole thing is
>>285584324probably none
>>285588764Thanks, I'll just read the manga and watch the anime or sakuga later.
>>285581704japan, because it's a japanese product made by japanese for japanese
>>285581704>how to make female character badass>turn her into a man
>>285581704uh who cares? Is it still making money? Because that's all that matters in the end.
>>285581992>I'm really hoping SHF could still make MakiAs long as it's Maki instead of MANki.
Leave it to him.
>>285581704>ironic musclemummy faggots and tumblr/reddit lesbos>waifu appreciatorsYeah, I'm with Japan on this one. Then again, dropped the thing shortly after the Shibuya arc, so who gives a fuck.
>>285581704>KIRRU BIRRU!?!?!>SHAMFURR GAIJIN SHINEMA!!I loved it. Even the iffy parts make decent memes, like "PLEASE, KILL HER, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGH"because, be honest, the fact the he stood there aura farming is the only reason he's going to be remembered, I literally cannot remember anyone's name in this shit.Who the fuck was that witch Maki meets up with? I read this shit less than a year ago and all the school buddies from the early volumes that aren't Maki just vanished from memory.>the waste of a slot that is Panda
i think she's pretty good looking, i'd hug her and her boobs
>>285581734This is so true sisters.Can we finally get some love for a real anime, like one piece?
People come to a jjk thread to shut on jjk because it's better and more popular than the shit they spend their time on huh
the better maki
>>285581704It was fine, Westerners are praising it like the second coming of Jesus because the Kill Bill reference and its with a man looking woman.
>>285591310he wasnt aurafarming, he was just hungover.
>>285581704Global. Japanese people have normie tastes.
>>285594023Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.Don't bring that disgusting zoomershit over here.
>>285581796>akthually, you must have very high IQ to understand JJK
>>285581976>>grr I hateu kirru birruI noticed some anime fans, especially in Japan, get angry when anime takes influence from western works, as if westerners were invanding anime and they have gatekeep it.Ironic, considering old anime were based on Disney cartoons. The reason anime characters have big eyes is due to Mickey.
>>285594326>westerners were invanding anime and they have gatekeep itBased. They should continue doing it. I can't stand western virtue-signalling or their "culture" in general.
>>285582967Don't care, japanese people are ultra normies who dislike crazy and artsy stuff.
>>285594207They have point that imdb rating which are a meme and needs to stop being taken seriously is all about good animation and not story content.
>>285582669Anon, japanese people love TikTok and social media in general.
>>285581967>it's overindulgent>why>it references Kill BillLolAlso the anime is better than manga.
>>285581704The people who never watched it.
It's pretty clear the West is in the right this time since most of them are either teenagers or manchildren and JJK is for retards like them.Also it wouldn't be surprising if Gege requested the changes so Maki would be more in the right and so the audience wouldn't sympathize with those being killed like some of the Japanese audience did with the manga.
>>285594504This guy is a meme he said they need to lock the country down(I know you all agree with this but pretend you're reasonable) over a imdb rating on a anime.
>imdb scoresah, I see, "global" as in 3rd world.
>>285594403Too bad, USA is the 2nd biggest market for anime.>>285594475Nobody watches JJK for the story. Well, except people in Japan apparently.The evil foreigners don't feel ashamed of battle shonens.
>>285582967What is this retarded logic? I can't criticize something because I wasn't born in the right country? If you release something then it's fair for anyone to criticize no matter their background. At the end of the day we all the same species with many of the same struggles and successes and we can all find commonality in that. Somethings maybe be harder to understand due to different shared circumstances but unless your mentally stilted I think you can try to understand and empathize or maybe even relate it to your own experiences. Many of you enjoy works that are loved in Japan which would be strange if only Japanese people could like them because they are the target audience.
>>285594549Well, yes. Did you see how filthy gaijin waito piggus were behaving on xitter over a chinese cartoon? Those monkeys should be locked in cages.
so japanese people don't like shonen anime because it's shonen and westerners like it
>>285594717No they love shounen slop they just didn't like how mappas adapted it.
Japanese people like bleach, Naruto, hxh, and dragon ball, because it was pure creativity and soul, modern shonen is slop meant to appeal to people on r*ddit and Tw*tter
>>285581734based and trvthpilled
>>285594207>you can tell they were never in those trenches frwhat does this even mean in the context of anime? The slang used tells me they are mid 20s at most and brown. They had access to as much anime and other media as they could possibly want.
>>285581704not the normies
>>285581704The one that actually makes it for the actual audience it is aimed at.>>285581734FPBP
>>285581734And I love that Japan doesn't drink the "aura farmer peak" and "so artsy withball the references" cool-aid, they are the only ones holding MAPPA accountable because westerners don't buy shit.Because of the based japs we got an actual good Reze arc movie.
who the fuck watches this shit
>>285582967>anime made in japan appealing to japannot anymore, MAPPA sold out to Netflix
>>285594023I use this emoticon for my period days on the calendar it feels weird to see it getting popular. No I don't care that this is too much info.
>>285581704It's really manga readers vs anime only in this case. Newfag westerners, or really Americans in this situation, avoid manga completely.The tone and pacing was just bad.
>>285581704battle shonen always appeals to the lowest common denominator
>>285595401I don't get it in this case because even if you totally divorce it from the manga, it's still feels bizarrely directed as an anime. It's like that part of the Naruto vs Pain fight where suddenly they go Looney Tunes mode. It's very high effort, sure, but it's still goofy and weird.
>Naruto vs Pain fight where suddenly they go Looney Tunes modeAnimation not allowed to be loose and creative, it has to be on model and standard.May as well watch those shitty DC animated movie fights then.
>>285595495>oh no the anime dared to go for a fun edgy tone instead of playing it safe by putting a sad tune over Mai's sacrifice and epic action music over Maki's massacre Wouldn't have worked anyways, playing it all straight à la demon slayer doesn't fit the jjk. The writing and the general vibe are too different.
>>285595641People apparently can't remember YOU ARE MY SPECIAL playing while Yuji sits on the rim of the Shibuya crater
>>285595641Could have been serious edgy or horror edgy instead
>>285595714That gave a completely different vibeIt was intentionally vibe breaking, because Yuji was fucking breaking down not aura farming
There's something demonic about the complete disregard for human life in shows like this.
>>285594984Shut up, cuckold
>>285595826Grow a pair, you homo
>>285595815What's wrong with Maki aura farming?
>>285594700>I can't criticize something because I wasn't born in the right country?Correct. If you can't even bother to learn the culture you need to fuck off. It's like white people trying to stand up for black "oppression".
>>285595906JJK is still shit.
>>285595934This is true.
>>285595826Nobody died while making this show anon.>>285595906Is it bait season already
>>285581734+1 trvth nukeno thread contribution
>>285594531>>285581704I agree with this guy. JJK is for stupid people.
>>285581704both are clearly wrong. it was just 7.5 out of 10 at most. it's knuckle draggers voting it 10 for no reason at all and then it's Nippon that got butthurt about director huffing his own farts and making shitty references to western movies.
>>285594207I honestly don't het it the animation has been like this since season 2 and they lap up other anime like demon slayer that has ADHD seizure inducing animation as well.I really don't understand why it's a problem now all of a sudden.
>>285596197They just don't like the content in the manga. The rest of it is just red herring.Fuck misandrists.
I just want hype and aura, women don't have hype or aura that's why this episode is bad, Jinichi smashing her head in would be better
>>285595826non-sorcerers are just trash, lower than animals
>>285596320This.
>>285596275>>285596320Can you go kiss elsewhere nobody gives a fuck
>>285596320It really would’ve. Women are not cool, guys. They’re sex objects.
>>285596687Not even that. They're baby making machines.Cute boys are the sex objects who're meant to be pampered through the art of bussydo.
>>285596687>>285596804Don't you guys have to die in war against brown people
>Some motherfuckers unironically believe Mai would've stood a chance
>>285596826I have nothing against cute brown boys.
>>285581734
>>285596843yeah but mai doing a zenin school shooting would be kino
>>285581734Fpbp /thread
>>285581704Only reason Japs hate it is cause the system closely resembling theirs is depicted as evil.
>>285581704Japs are based, that's why anime and manga were so good for decades, now they're mostly crap because studios and authors have started catering to Western fans. Most anime fans in the west are so cucked with feminism and lacking in testosterone that they shit on authors who don't write powerful female girlbosses with masculine features as one of their main attractions.
Most of the world outside of japan still glorifies and worships dragonball.I think it's safe to assume the majority of people are retarded.
>nippon>wrong with CSM season 1>wrong with JJK season 3
>>285597152Yo're retarded the Japanese don't hate it because muh feminism they hate it because they loved jinshi or whatever.
>>285581734death to all jjk fags
>>285595566>It's different, so it's good!
shonen rots the brain
>>285597152I can't wait for Sukuna to bitchslap Maki out the manga, these anime onlys aren't ready.
>>285595641Just because the source material is retarded doesn't mean making it retarded in a different way makes it better.
>>285597203Having read the manga I fail to see what 10 seconds of jinshi acting differently changes
>>285581734I like JJK and even I don't get the hype around the Zenin clan murder. There are some parts the anime adaptation improved and some parts they made worse but even the part in the manga, it felt like one of the numerous parts of JJK's final arc where Gege just rushed through because he wanted it all over with
>>285581734This post is funny because the same people think MHA is the greatest thing ever.
There's something funny in the nip reception to Megumi and Maki.>Megumi has expectations placed upon him by Gojo but really wants to do nothing, gets depressed which ends killing people, is one of the most popular characters>Maki originally wants to show off to the clan, kills them all when they kill Mai, isn't popular
>>285597310Well they do because him not turning around is character assassination for them and they are getting in a big fit about it.
>>285597203I'm just using this situation to show why most anime fans in the West are faggots and why anime should never have gone mainstream outside Japan. Any reason the Japanese have for going against their beliefs is justified.
>>285597203He was an absolute fucking nothing character in the manga. Nips getting butthurt that their favorite insignificant character isn't put on a pedestal is nothing new. Hell, mangaka are often afraid to kill off established characters because pathetic otaku will literally send them death threats for doing so. Fuck those faggots.
>all this seething and grinding of teethshounen bros, we never stop winning.
I just wanna see pic related animated bro. I don't give a fuck about Maki/Yuta shit.
>>285596320Women can have action moments, engage in minor fights, or be good supporters, but they should never be at the center of a major conflict.
>>285597203>>285597310>>285597398Jinichi wasn't loved or anything. On the surface it's just a small change to an insignificant character but it actually has more impact than you'd expect.>manga Jin is concerned about his comrade and needs to be told that his priority should be killing Maki>anime Jin is just another asshole Zenin, barely seems aware of the situation, not taking Maki seriously despite her killing so many peopleAn adaptation needs to show more care with the details than that. It's obvious they only made the change to make Maki look more justified, it's cowardly if you ask me.
>>285596804>bussydoLol’d. You damn degnerates are funny I’ll give you that.
>>285597203No one loves him, he's just emblematic of the weird directorial decisions of the episode.>Let's give this nothing character 10 seconds of out of place aura farming for zero reason because... Uh... Well you can never have too much aura farming!
>>285581734this
>>285597700>It's obvious they only made the change to make Maki look more justified, it's cowardly if you ask me.It's not like the manga ever painted maki for being wrong for doing this.Even in modulo it's just treated like a joke.
Someone needs to make a webm of that bit where Maki and the sword guy are just slowly floating towards each other while there's nothing but speedlines going crazy all around them.
>>285597700Being concerned for comrade shows humanity but it doesn't absolve nor show good character. He was still upholding a reprehensible system for which git him and his clan killed. Obviously irl you shouldn't kill everyone as that's bad but I don't think this moment makes makis decisions seem more questionable.
>>285581734This.People who watch anime have the lowest standards of any medium.In a few weeks from now everyone will be like "This season does kinda suck now that you think about it"
>>285597152>that's why anime and manga were so good for decadesThis post reeks of faggot, you've watched the couple of good shows and movies people recommend from the 80's and 90's and thats all well and fine however most anime has always been extremely shit and you're only just now living through a proper season in the modern day and finding that out.
>>285597152>authors have started catering to Western fans>Manga authors>Catering to westerners who will never buy their manga because they literally can't buy the magazine This is highly retarded chief, try again next time
>>285582106I'm just gonna spell it out: They hate that they referenced an american action movie. That seems to be the trend now. Whether its genuine distaste for american culture, or just carryover rage from CSM S1 that everyone forgot why exactly they hated it to begin with. The episode wasn't bad at all, and I don't know why its suddenly bad acting to throw in hollywood inspirations at all like its never been done before. Especially when something like Kill Bill itself was inspired by Bruce Lee.
>>285598272>They hate that they referenced an american action movieThat's retarded then since the Kill Bill reference was in the manga itself. Gege has loads of western movie references in the manga since he likes western movies.
>>285598272I think Mappa just likes references in general. They did it in season 2 with Gurren Lagann and people loved it.
>>285590641I prefer her new design much more>>285582919Yep
>>285598351Is there any reason for Mechamaru to just escape right after healing? That fight feels incredibly stupid if there wasn't.
>>285595306>Because of the based japs we got an actual good Reze arc movieqrd? why because of the japs?
>>285598339>>285598351Why are you fags replying to someone who's lying while creating a false story and narrative? There's not even a source to OP's 5.7 rating. These thread are made by schizos trying to create false reality that doesn't exist.
>>285581704I'm always fascinated by differences in reaction between East and West when it comes to Anime. The West not loking something Japan likes is quite common, but the West liking something that Japan doesn't seems quite rare. Are there any other notable examples?
>>285598633Why are even acting like OP's picture is legitimate? Why are you not asking for a source?
>>285598503Kenjake made a curtain that cut him off from the outside world.
>>285598546They didn't like the direction of the first season of chainsawman season 1 and got the director fired.New director and reze movie were much more well received.
I can only assume mods/jannies are not banning these threads or deleting them because they're in support of creating these falseflag threads.
Naoya runs 30 miles, and Jinici-san makes a meteor shower fall.I'm sick of this kind of production, that's way too much.
>>285584324>Where is that Japan rating even from?it is fake
>>285598177>Faggot get mad at being called faggot Kek. Good to see that my post was spot on.>you've watched the couple of good shows and movies people recommend from the 80's and 90Stop projecting. Almost all the shows I've seen from the last century have been found by myself, and most of them have been good, much better than the current stuff.>>285598208>another mad faggotYou can keep praising your new manga and anime female icons who aren't like the whores those misogynistic bastards Oda and Kishimoto would write about. I'm not going to stop you.
So if Maki fought Higuruma during the Culling Games, would she be unaffected by his Domain's rules to prevent violence?
>>285597152>IMAGINE IF KISHIMOTO WROTE MAKIAn irrelevant woman?Whats the change
>>285581704The pacing was god awful as was a lot of the general direction so japs are right
>>285598339>Kill Bill reference was in the manga itselfWhere?
>>285581704>ratings for individual episodeswhen is this meme going away?
>>285581793I hate newfags so fucking much is unreal
>>285603340Yes.Because she has 0 CE she basically doesn't exist as far as jujutsu goes and gets treated as an inanimate object.The only reason why Sukuna's DE works on her is, because his DE targets both living and inanimate things
>>285586152most of those clansmen treated her like shit because she was female and had no sorcery abilitythen some of those same clansmen conspired to kill her, and her sister(who they successfully killed)why would she be disturbed to kill these people?
No source still on the 5.7
>>285581734FPBP
WHO WOULD WIN
>>285604503Uh... pretty sure JJK scales way above AoT.Hell, Yujiro Hanma scales above AoT.Maki would break her legs and then rape Eren in front of her.Then she'd rape Mikasa too.
>>285581704Maki is an awful character. I'm dreading her future culling games fights because they're all dogshit.
>>285604266For some of them Maki was a beloved cousin, a friend they played with, an overambitious quirky weirdo they showered with gifts and praise, for others an energetic a bit delusional kouhai, for some maybe even a childhood sweetheart. But for Maki? They were nameless, faceless Putty Patrollers who deserved to be mowed down without even getting any explanation.
>>285581704The nips , but for different reasons from the one the Westoids think.Gege’s writing is so shitty that calling anything post-shobuya incident “GOOD” should be a crime punishable with reclusion
>>285584367the music is so good why are people hating?
>>285604266most people don’t think killing other people is a reasonable thinglook at yuji’s reaction vs manki’s
>>285604266Most of the Kukuru Unit would have been at nearly the same level of bottom of the totem pole mooks like she was. Seen as rank and file failures who just padded the fighting force which is why she was among their ranks and a member of it. Killing the ones attacking her during this was fair game as it was self defense but going out of her way to hunt down and slaughter members of it not there who wouldn't even have been able to have any chance at continuing the clan since they were nobodies is what makes her in the wrong (unless Mai actually did enforce a binding vow/put a curse on her).
>some guy makes up a random number and claims that Japs hated it without posting source>thousands of retards including /a/ fall for itAmericans truly are retarded
>>285602349>Almost all the shows I've seen from the last century have been found by myselfOkay, list the shows you've seen from the last century that where actually good. The shit that no one recommends so no Akira, no Evangelion, no Gundam or shit like that, I'll wait. Will you fag out with the retard cope of "muh begging" or will you prove that 90% of anime has always been dog shit, barely animated and lacking plot in every conceivable way since anime is media meant to be pumped out to sell shit like toys and other merchandise.
>>285581704I don’t trust people who constantly say things like >its peak fire bro>it’s just so hype learn to have fun man>i cant tell the difference between these two things >finally a non useless woman>actually everything you like and think was better was always bad
>>285604535Nah, Mikasa is a main character, this burned chick is a side character who got a tiny spotlight, so she loses.
>>285602349>Almost all the shows I've seen from the last century have been found by myself, and most of them have been good, much better than the current stuff.NTA but from since 1960 up until 1999 there where over 1000 anime series made, this number doesn't even include the obscure as fuck OVA's released on CD back during the early 90s when anime studios where popping up left and right then going bankrupt after releasing a couple of direct to CD slideshow shit that no one remembers. Even if 100 shows of the past century where good, anons point would still stand that 90% of anime has always been garbage. In fact, the amount of anime being produced YOY hasn't really changed from since the 90's, it's just that shit that would be direct to DVD/CD that you'd only be able to get at a random disk store in Japan is now shown on random Jap TV channels since there are way more TV channels and on streaming services since unlike TV streaming services can just host the show on their website indefinitely.
>>285605902OPs pick is fake but if you haven't been following the discussion a lot of Japanese manga readers shared their discontent online with the episode due to changing things from the manga. Ofc idiots thinks it's due to not liking the makis storyline and then bash Japan which then some Japanese gets mad at them and calls them dumb.
>>285606572>a lot of Japanese manga readers shared their discontent onlineNTA but I would actually like proof that a lot of them did, everyone just uses the same 5 comments, incl "news" websites and YouTubers talking about it.
>>285606584There's like 100 different ones but here's a link to one https://x.com/numa333444/status/2014378093339988078
>>285581734Auraslop bros...
What I would quite like to know is how Maki would feel about getting her armpits licked, seeing as they’re half burned
>>285606890if they were burned too she might not feel anything due to nerve damage
>the only somewhat normal girl in a world of schizophrenic womenfor me, it's Miwa
>>285581778It's from weebs who didn't grow out of their "japan sugoiiii, watashi wa mistah ken!" and are unable to form theirnown opinions. Most of them are also moegefag who unironically liked Lucky Star.
>>285581704Felt like I was watching CSM with its overindulgency and faux style
>>285603484HereMaki is in the exact same room as the Bride.
>>285581778if you have ever even considered siding with social media amerifats against japan you deserve to have your eyes gouged out
>>285581704Global has never been right about something, EVER
>>285598043>but I don't think this moment makes makis decisions seem more questionableThis can be discussed, I think it adds some moral ambiguity but at the very least it makes the director's decision very questionable
>>285607763What kind of a dickless faggot would read this?
>>285581734But Japan loves the JJK manga.
>>285581778>there's this extreme culture of appeal to Japan in animeanime is a part of Japan, so of course it appeals to Japan
>>285581734This. Fuck OP.
>>285594605>Too bad, USA is the 2nd biggest market for animethat's china doe
>>285594326>The reason anime characters have big eyes is due to Mickeyproof? seen big cartoon like circle eyed historical art (1000+ years ago) in japanese museums before
>>285582417Cringe>>285582170Have you considered that it can be both casual and underwhelming, and also they messed up the tone? because that's what happened
>>285607763damn in guess infinity castle in kimetsu is also a kill bill reference
>>285607156I would've thought the moist sensation would feel nice for her
>>285589728>>285590532>>285586203>>285584244>>285582170good posts
>>285611532Gege is a film enthusiast and throws in references all the time. And the director has been fairly consistent with it since they brought him in in season 2. Plenty of shit to hate in the JJK adaptation, I don't think this is the hill to die on.
>>285605573Shibuya arc was shit too.
>>285595826Agreed.Weekly manga creators are typically not well-adjusted.
>>285611698good example, however i would say borrowing choreography is different from making a blatant reference, (if he really wanted he'd do something more blatant like mentioning tanjirou's sword in that one chapter) and i'm not even the first anon, i just find it silly you'd use the room as your first example (hence my kimetsu infinity castle reference)
>>285611916Literally the same room with a glass fucking floor and staircase, and framed the same way as that scene. You're just being obtuse.
