Is it just nostalgia or is shounen just not very good these days?I've tried to get into Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Fairy Tale, Black Clover etc. but none of them hook me. Bleach, Naruto and One Piece weren't high art or anything but they at least grabbed my attention and kept me reading/watching.
mashle >> others

just nostalgia
>>287342888Battle shounen is one of the most formulaic things out there. Once you've seen the best this genre has to offer, you've seen them all and the rest are obsolete.
>>287342888I watched two episodes of jujitsu kaizen and dropped it immediately. Too zoomer for me
>>287342888HunterxHunter , jojo and FMAB are superior to all three of them. Though none of them are very conventional "bate" shonen
>>287342888Gachiakuta is trash.

You just know every “big 3” thread is made by a bleachfag. If a nardofag or an opfag wanted to make a thread about their series, he would make one. Meanwhile if a bleachfag wanted to make a thread about bleach it would die, so they need to leech from the other two to keep stuff alive.
>>287344887You got me. I'm secretly a Bleach giga fanboy and knew I needed the power of One Piece asslickers and Naruto deepthroaters to keep my thread alive...
I’m on episode 23 of Naruto (first time ever watching it) reminds me of bleach
>>287342888Old shonen didn't require constant sakuga to reel in low iq midwits. JJK wouldn't get to season 3 without muh sakuga to carry it. Meanwhile peope tolerated Naruto's slideshows because the world and characters are genuinely charming
