Who is the most inspirational MC to you?
Naruto
>>286706533if shamo inspires you I feel genuinely sorry for you
>>286706576My nigga Ryo got done dirty by the world, so he did the world dirty too! Eye for an eye bitch!
>>286706685he was ready to settle down at the end
>>286706685did he really need to take a rape break every 3 chapters to go molest random women
>>286706533>W-what's that? A FIST?!! Karate banzaiiii
Badeni
>>286706713His soul learned the lesson, so his life contract expired. Reincarnation a bitch
>>286706533I laughed. I do wonder what people think of Shamo. I remember enjoying it back in the day, but I think the author and mangaka mostly wrote it for edgy schlock. I think it might serve better as a cautionary tale rather than inspirational lol.
I get the idea of an anti-hero but 34 volumes of this faggot is too many
>>286706767>I do wonder what people think of Shamo. I remember enjoying it back in the day, but I think the author and mangaka mostly wrote it for edgy schlock. I think it might serve better as a cautionary tale rather than inspirational lol.its good in the sense that it doesn't pussy out of the "villian protagonist" idea by making him an actual amoral menace, even the people in his group around him are all some form of criminal or self interested scum, which inevitably leads to his group dissolving and only the idiot obsessed with him staying, it works until the original writer leaves halfway thru and they introduce literal chi magic blasts and a bunch of other dumb bullshit that goes nowhere
>>286706860>until the original writer leaves halfway thru and they introduce literal chi magic blastsYeah. I remember the China arc well, probably more then it deserves for how pointless it was. Artist just wanted to draw kungfu bullshit until they hit NotJesus Arc.
>>286706685>USING MY NON-DOMINANT HAND! His parents were monsters and they got off light
>>286706807alright, i'll try it again. anons claim it's better than spirit circle, but i couldn't really get into it
Would Ryo listen to EsDeeKid after he got out of juvie?
>>286706767It sucks because of the way the martial arts escalate. It is too grim dark to randomly introduce chi powers in like act 5.
Bump
Son Goku
>>286706533How long did it take him in universe to gain that much muscle?
>>286706533
>>286706533Satoru Gojo
>>286706533not this simp faggot
>>286710734So has he finished that doujin, and completely cucked Hiroki yet?
>>286706533Laios
>>286706860>>286707128I'd say grand cross/judo jesus arc was more pointless than China. While it and the whole chi thing were all but ignored, it aleast followed it's narrative consistently. The whole grand cross ending was so random with the black dogis and Touma's fight with Ryo being hyped by several side characters just to end up having no impact on Ryo himself.
>>286717397He's an inspirational figure for someone who dislikes people (normalfags) and cannot fit into modern society, like me.
I don't think I have ever related to any MC, I usually see myself in side characters
KAIJIIIII
>>286706533>Don't give up.>Keep struggling. >Learn to trust. >It is OK to get help when you need it.He is far from perfect, but he is an example to not be weak of body, mind, or will. When you set a goal, achieve it. Fate is what you make - choose to make your own life better instead of wallowing in self pity.
>>286719030All my niggas look up to 6'5 250lb Linebacker build Guts!
>>286719030This is my answer. I'm also a big fan of Mori Buntarou from The Climber
>>286706533>starts off as a depressed cynic with trust issues who can put up a cheerful facade but deep down doesn’t care what happens to himself>eventually comes to learn that people can genuinely care about him and that it’s okay for him to exist and be himselfMy nigga Oz is criminally underrated.
>>286720658that's not a main character
>>286721000i could sayhttps://myanimelist.net/anime/37338/Chuukan_Kanriroku_Tonegawabut that would be disingenuous.instead i will say:I dont give a fuck. it beats anything here
>>286721055Watch out, we got a badass over here
>>286706533This pic motivated me to lift weights
>>286721263This pic motivated me to eat steak
>>286707154Spirit Circle is much more succinct, but their both good.
>>286706533not the MC but RIkiishi Toru
>>286706533the first couple arcs were okit's basically the standard good karate vs evil karate story, except it follows the bad guy's journeybut then it went off the rails. didn't this guy get beat up and pissed on by random homeless dudes, or something?
>>286710496He took steroids, so probably a few months
>>286706533the teacher from Rookies. read that just as I started my teaching apprenticeship.
>>286714907Pretty sure the author received too many death threats and has given up
>>286706533I remember how fucking confusing and our of nowhere the Kung fu arc was, you could literally skip it and you wouldn't miss shit, in fact many recommend this, I guess the author wanted the mc to learn more martial arts
