>>287420144Is it really unpopular on /a/ though? This is a pretty stacked season and Bones has another well-animated shonen airing this season as well
>>287420334yeahi watch this page like a hawk and it never showed up

>>287420399>man who's only ever read CSM: whoa I'm getting major CSM vibes from this
>>287420144Watched 2 episodes, pretty gud. Am interested in seeing how it's going and adaptation seems nice. Seems like it will be one of those series when they will try to show both sides, to show that neither is wrong but I dunno how that will be done since we've seen the bad guy side slaughter civilians and innocent people. Gabu sex
>>287420144>still unpopular on /a/The manga didn't have the best reputation on /a/ because it's a bit of a slow starter. Plus there's a fair amount of Dislike for Arakawa due to console war bullshit from the Brotherhood days.
>>287420396I saw it on there yesterday
>>287420144I'm loving it so far, but an anon last week recommended staying clear of these threads to avoid getting spoiled on every single plot development, and I'm heeding his advice.Anyway it had a far stronger start than FMA's corrupt church story.
>>287420439would you say the same if there was a new anime airing with naruto, sasuko, and sakurta, and we see rasengan but it's water moisture from the air instead of wind now?it's an extreme example... and yet 1:1.
>>287420238This looks really cheap.
>second episode>it's already getting stupidIt makes no sense that the two siblings wouldn't just talk to each other about what is going on right then and there. You're gonna explain that the other one was an imposter, but not anything else? Why did they act like they were short on time when one of the two parties was the pursuing party? Nah, they just continue the enemy misunderstanding for no real reason.The characters so far are pretty great, but that was fucking stupid.
i watched both eps but i'm struggling to make sense of what arakawa wants to achieve here because she's clearly intending for some "both sides have their own reasons and neither is correct" but we just saw them slaughter unarmed women and random farmer dudes for seemingly no reason, so unless those people were all secretly israel-tier evil baal worshippers then i'll never be able to even slightly entertain the other side/half of the show.
>>287420766this really annoyed me to, but i'm coping that dera stepped in and dragged him away for some still obscured reason.
>edward is now a little girl
>>287420902My guess is>Bad guy conglomerate with soldiers murdering civilians = bad>Gabu murdering civilians = traumatized child soldier who thought she was just helping a friend so morally gray and redeemable>Asa = being puppeted so not that badStill seems hard to swallow though.
>>287420517>Gabu sexAnon!? Did you not see what she did to those poor innocent villagers?
>>287421041So only adults can be bad guys.Attack on Titan was similar with Reiner and co being redeemed. Flock and Eren became the only bad ones.
>>287421068She doesn't do it, the teeth do. Get her away from the teeth and she seems rapeable enough to me.
>>287421068Gabu. Sex.
>>287420144I'd like to know what the fuck is going on without it taking the whole season

this shit's kinda ass.
>>287420144>shonenFound your mistake, hope this helps.FMA is overrated btw

>>287420144That's just genderbent Edward Elric
>>287421593>new good anime>bump limitYup. This is the most interesting thing all season at least.
Well, FMA started quite strong, it's a world with a particular system and it gets introduced quite quickly with trauma, sin, and concepts like equivalent exchange.This show, so far it has characters with their partner demons. Cool, but nothing truly interesting has happened yet. To name some other "recent" popular shonen anime, Jujutsu and Dan da Dan both have strong first episodes.The most "shocking" part of ep 1 here is a girl going "gobble gobble", which was fun but didn't really have much impact.Funnily enough Atelier Totori also airing this season had a starting episode closer to FMA.I haven't read the manga but hopefully it picks up, so far it's quite slow.
>>287420238explain JoJo's popularity, then.
>>287422253gayness
>>287422231>Atelier TotoriThey're making a Arland anime?

>>287422328Blowjobs and lovey dovey, correcting through pure love and affection impregnating sex*And for me
>>287422231The start of this story is deliberately subversive.
the worst part was the hypocrisy
>>287422042those big tits of hers aren't muscle. someone needs to turn that frown upside down
>>287422562Maybe, but it's still a bad sales strategy. Which is what OP's question is about
was this shot really necessary
>>287422653
>everyone posting the gabu whore and giant "woman" while overlooking the hottest character in the show (by far)
>>287420610Whoa I can't believe Arakawa travelled through time to copy Memesaw Man part 2's main character who was created after Yomi no Tsugai started.
>>287422635absolutely necessary
>>287422582villagers deserved it.
thank god gabushit is a side character with barely any screentime so you faggots can fuck off now
you'd think the board who fellated fma:b so hard would be all over this but apparently it's still somewhat niche
>>287422042Does she speak my language?
>>287422305ENTER hat gojo and his little girl harem

why does it seem no show nowadays becomes a phenomenon on par with the old shonen? too many shows diluting the fan pool?
>>287420144I remember trying to watch Hero Tales but it just didn't hit the same as FMA.
>>287423292JJK did

One thing, the English title is pretty bad should've left it untranslated or came up with something else.
>>287423394we'll see, if the inevitable gojo v sukuna movie has people in 3rd world countries huddled in the street watching it illegally on projectors then it gets the status.
>>287423441>gabu gabu>VIOLENCEEEEEEE :D>funny faceDamn...
How are they going to justify Asa, Gab and the military going scorched ground on some medieval farmers that seemed to be clueless the entire time and not le secretly evil? They're featured in the OP, so I don't think they're intended to be bad guys, how do you even come back from that lol
Is the imposter sister monster thing gonna turn out to actually care about Yuru after all their time together?
>>287423292The average attention span of modern anime fans,, and the lack of long running shows without year long gaps.
Is the artstyle just too ugly nowadays? Even despite it's shilling and MAL number 1 status none of the characters of fma seem to have any real fangirls/fanboys
>>287420144None of her post FMA works have been popular here (or lets face it anywhere outside Japan)
>>287422231>Jujutsu and Dan da Dan both have strong first episodesLmao
Mangafags, I want your opinion on the tone of story, do you also feel that the manga's tone suffers a bit with the constant injection of gags in otherwise supposedly serious moments?
>>287424300Silver Spoon had some traction early on
>>287423029Nobody cared about Silver Spoon and Arslan either
>>287422846only now I noticed that MC is human Alphonse
>>287424466I mean FMA had the example same issues maybe not nearly as tonedeaf but still compared Izumi in the manga to the first 2003 series its like night and day
>>287424300Is Yomi no Tsugai even big in Japan? There's fuck all fanart
>>287424904Manga sales are good but the character designs are trash so no fanart
>>287424994but gabu-chan and the muscle demon girl are great
>>287424904Big enough that it gets it own standees in book stores but not super popular
>>287424904>Is Yomi no Tsugai even big in JapanIts the best selling title running in Gangan if that means anything. No where near FMA or Silver Spoon but a sizeable hit for a monthly shounen.
I think the name is very unfortunate and it reeks of generic shit, even though the actual content might be good. Arakawa dun goofed in this one.
>>287424901>maybe not nearly as tonedeafI would say that is the case and not a maybe since I did read FMA immediately after catching up with the manga and FMA was nowhere as tonedeaf, well, the characters are very fun at least, I just wish the gags ruining serious moments didn't bother me so much.>>287425118She's honestly a decent character, and her bond with Asa is probably one of my favourite parts, and she has a moment or two thanks to it. And that's without spoilers.
>>287424300Silver Spoon was great until it wasn't because of her personal issues.I really wish she went back to it and properly wrote about the second and third years.
>>287422145>>287422171why do women get cuter the more you torture them?
>>287425457Oh I liked it a lot but it wasn't popular here or anywhere except Japan. Would have probably found an audience had it came out 4 or 5 years later when "comfy" anime like Yuru Camp were popular
>>287425282I don't mind the Japanese name. It's easy to remember and if it had ever gotten big, people would probably call it YnT or something.It's just the English translation that sucks.
>>287420238Extremely homosexual post.

>>287427970>AIKys
Why are people trying to force themselves to like it? it feels generic, FMAB at home thanks to the same character style.
>>287427800I laughed.
>>287428425I don’t think it’s generic, but it’s very weird storytelling
>>287424466It's a different series than FMA and it humanizes most of the cast as more than just the basic tropes to me. It's not exactly meaty for character without the tidbits honestly.
>>287428286
>>287428536>and it humanizes most of the cast as more than just the basic tropesThat's actually a good point honestly, especially when you compare it to FMA the characters here are surprisingly way less hesitant to kill, unless there is a need to extract intel or the like.Despite it being more obvious the more you read, that's still a nice perspective, thanks anon.
>>287428045>fit>tall>chill>big titswhat's not to like?
>>287428425It's not that I'm forcing myself to like it, it's that it's one of those "maybe it'll be good in 1-2 eps" kind of anime
>>287427176That's the spoon, you hold that when the pin is pulled and then it comes off when you throw it.>>287426598Vagina bones.
I am interested so far, although a bit confused, like how are they gonna redeem a character who've killed innocent people, one in the front of her daughter in such a savage manner?Then again, it took FMA like 8 or so episodes until it it really started to click with me so I'll be patient.
MC's love interest doko?
>>287429384I'm assuming it will be the Asa imposter girl, she's still alive and all.
>>287429368Last episode mentioned that sometimes adults leave the village to work and we saw that one of those adults that works directly for the granny has daemon sight and whatever powers come with that, killed like a dozen soldiers, and knew the name of whatever group did the raid.There's pretty obviously other shit going on, I'm thinking anyone with daemon sight gets trained in magic bullshit by granny then sent off to fight other daemon summoners so it's probably faction bullshit between murdery magic organizations.
>>287428718Asa-chan is so lucky
FMA is one of my top 3 favorite anime/manga of all time, I didn't even knew about this and never heard of it or being talked about, even Arslan had constant threads, that said I left /a/ for several years so dunno, need to catch up with Arslan firstBut I really liked these 2 episodes
fuckinggoddamn tanuki scrotum net arakawa damn you
I've been meaning to read this manga for a few years now, but If an anime is coming out I think I'll just wait until the current cour is done and watch it instead
>>287429733I wonder if they'll do like Brotherhood and finish it all.
>>287429683Asa only wants her brother
He grew up with the "fake" Asa, she's his actual sister instead of the "real" one. There is no scenario in which he should forgive her for killing his sister.
>>287429489Fuck off, gachatard.
>>287429489Stay, gacha enthusiast.
>>287430030retard
>>287429981Not to mention she and the little blonde shit killed an entire village of innocent people. The thought that he'll work together with these people going forward is just ridiculous.
>>287430091>innocent
>>287430091Asa literally didn't kill anyone though
>>287429981Not really, they're not related by blood.Plus, they did it to trick him to stay trapped in the village.
>>287422635>>287422950>>287426523>>287426598not a coomer for normal anime usually, but god DAMN, i hope we get good fanart of her, some futa wouldn't be bad too her belly is so hot.
>>287420144Well, seems it's not as unpopular anymore, though it's been all but dead here until the anime came along. Can't blame anon though, it's painfully slow. I got into it because Arakawa and keep reading because it's not as if I'm reading a lot of other stuff, but damn if it doesn't meander, also pretty bloated in characters. Might be picking up for good now in the manga (I hope) but only time will tell.Granted, the irregularity in the manga showing up online didn't help with discussion, I hope the anime coming along fixes this (I'm not using the official app).
>>287429981So what you're saying is the fake one is now fair game
no spoilers please, but will this anime have hot blooded moments?stuff that gives you goosebumps, like boku no her academia fights
>>287420144>Males still being secondary to hot girls.Despite how popular "crash-outs from being dumped" are, nobody's watching something to remember having your cock and balls being kicked in.
>>287429981Not related by blood? Not family. Simple as that.
>>287430374>some futa wouldn't be bad too
>>287429981The fake sister doesn't seem like a real human and was just deceiving him. I don't think it's that difficult if they explain themselves well.
>>287430828This is a series that explains pretty much everything going on pretty thoroughly and the characters feel pretty consistent about it. If it's not explained, it's a driving mystery.
>>287426075she's bigger than the manlet anon kek
>>287429981the fake one lied to him the whole time not different then your wife cheating behind you back idot or would you forgive her
>>287430384>Well, seems it's not as unpopular anymore, though it's been all but dead here until the anime came along.I had literally never heard of it before I started randomly watching a bunch if shows from this season.
>>287420144How was arslan senki?Only thing I know that it was an adaption of an already existing series.Not sure how mich of it is her original work.
>>287431782Arakawa made a manga adaptation of someone else's novel series. The manga is still ongoing, but is approaching endgame. There was 4 OVAs of the first bit of the original novel.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StMOUiE3TVQThe manga also got an anime, but only for the first part.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edanU5ZZ330
>>287429981She's not even actually dead so it doesn't matter.
>>287423441So it's fantasy.
>>287420144I find it hard to relate to anyone or to comprehend what is going on. Since I don't care about the characters, I have no curiosity to find out why an ancient city was mysteriously invisible, how any of these characters can wield magic, or why brother and sister are now fighting each other. I predict it is going to be some convoluted mess. Pass.
>>287423394No one will remember JJK in 10 years.

>>287432391>wow I don't care about these characters I met 5 minutes ago what a shit show hard pass
>>287432168Is it good?I heard some noise about it when the anime aired but never anything else after that.
>>287420144/a/ only cares about shows that are embroiled in twitter keyboard warrior controversies
>>287432587It's a low fantasy war drama. Basically Romance of the Three Kingdoms set in Not-Persia. Magic exists, but is just as likely to lose to an arrow or sword as anything else.
>>287420144I remember her, female Edward!
>>287420144I don't like the MC as much as Ed, though it's been a while. Maybe it's a matter of charisma, maybe it's because the special boy of ruthless hunting doesn't sit as well as special boy of clever brat, maybe it's because he doesn't feel like he's balanced out by dread and trauma and in over his head as the Elric brothers were.
I've never watched or read FMA
>>287433536Crazy, I've never asked nor cared if have.
>>287420144Perhaps lack of elite comedy makes this anime unpopular.

>>287434599Well, jobbin to arrows is plenty humilliating
It's peak modern faggotry that you are expected to see a character be redeemed somehow to be "allowed" to enjoy them. Fuck you all Black Lagoon is still the best show ever and everyone in it is a criminal dickbag.
>You'll never have her gabu gabu your ballsWHY LIVE
It's weird seeing the popularity for Gabby after reading most of what's available for the manga so far. It's not like she's absent, she's a frequent appearing character, but she's got like, next to zero context besides being Asa's best friend and being considered a top threat in the Kagemori ranks, plus the story really keeps her out of focus since she's not an actual leading character and things are largely Yuru-group focused so the Kagemori Clan tend to fuck off besides one or two members for entire arcs.
>>287436780we warned you about the fetishization of commoditieswe told you dognow 'culture' just means 'what products you buy and what services you subscribe to' in this so-called developed world, and people be using that to make moral judgements because all other guides to being a good moral agent have been exposed as just more products and services being peddled by profiteers
>>287436962it's not that surprising though since she looks like a gb'd edward elric.the author's assistants colored her to look like ed as a gag and she went with it.

>>287420144Is it gay to like Gabby if you know she's just genderbent Edward Elric?
>>287437119I'd rather they had done a S3 proper before starting this series but I'm still happy we're at least getting this
>>287432391Yeah, Yuru should just loudly declare that he's going to be the KING OF THE 2GUYS then change his name to Yomi so he could do a title drop to hook in the kids to teenagers audience.
I tried reading the manga but it just felt unfocused and didn't really have a good hook.The characters are not interesting, the world/setting is not interesting and tonally it just comes off like it doesn't know what it wants to be.Should've been axed right away.
>>287437229I wonder if she'll ever break character.
>>287437363seems like it's selling decent though (which is increasingly rare nowadays). it just feels kinda basic but maybe the people who don't read much manga aren't bothered by it.
>>287437365She does have smiles and antics in side panels or little gags, but generally is pretty straight-laced.>>287437363I feel like it builds up its ideas and story fine enough, there's a clear point to point concept of where the plot and events want to go despite the mysteries abound, but my problem so far in the manga really boils down to how bizarre the characterization can be. Flashbacks appear right before a character has something happen to them, but it's usually one main point and then they're left to their actions in-story, and that's just for major characters, because everyone else regularly gets blanket-sweeped, one notable scene if that, and sometimes jack shit to actually work from. It feels more like if Arakawa made FMA with Brotherhood as the focus point in accelerating along for the plot's sake, than the default, too eager to jump to the next battle or the next series of interaction and exposition scenes without breathing for a minute.
>>287437527That's kind of the issue I had with it. It feels a bit too arbitrary and tonally all over the place. I can't really get invested in what's going on since it doesn't seem like the characters and the setting have a firm style/design/approach to them. To me the overall take is that the manga lacks a proper editor (likely because they give Arakawa too much leeway) so there's no effort in reigning in a loose bunch of ideas. The whole thing comes off as a grab-bag of ideas, characters and situations just happening. A firm editor would attempt to organize it all and structure it and dose it out in a way that makes readers invested.
>>287422562The fake out felt a bit quick? Just from the first two episodes you now know/have the hint that the village are cultists trying to blackmail/coerce MC-kun into staying in the village, parents ran off with sis, sis can back for revenge. We saw that a shitload of the adults are in on it as well. The why is the next mystery. The magic system is thus unexplained other than some people 'just have' minion spirits occasionally, so unless this goes full Jojo and some of these minions have meta-hax it's gunna feel lower stakes (basically just attack the fucking minion master).
>>287437527i didn't read too deeply into it but everyone just felt very stoic about the things happening to them apart from, ironically, asa and gabby who seem to be the more emotional characters of the lot.
>>287421295>>287421022GOD why didn't i see it before. cute girls really do fix everything.
>>287437668Probably because basically every adult involved is some sort of assassin, criminal, murderer or goal-obsessed with death being an acceptable measure.
>>287437363It has similar story structures to FMA.in FMA the plot starts with the brothers looking for the Philosopher's Stone without knowing much about them, in YnT it starts with Yuru trying to find where his parents went and the reasoning on why they left the village together with Asa (without taking him).Without spoiling too much about the later plotlines for YnT it goes similarly like FMA where the main characters learn more about the basic premise and even introduce an antagonist group who will fight against the protagonist group.
Just watched the first 2 episodes and they were really good. I'm glad they're not doing Quality shots in this like FMA.
>>287437718pretty much, yeah. I just think it would help the readers get more invested in the events if the characters felt more about the stuff happening around them.you can feel rage and sadness from asa & gabby but most everyone else is just super pragmatic, uninvolved emotionally.the mc and his musclehead guardians get their ego and pride hurt more than anything.i do like that the mc wants to fight his battles instead of just relying on right and left.
>>287437335Yoru, it's you, you're the Yomi no Tsugai™!

Gabu is just rule 63 Edward
>>287437894If you're attracted to her that just means you wanted to fuck a female violence crazy Edward.That may not be a bad thing.
>>287437894yes, and i'll take this little shrimp and make more little shrimps with excessive combat abilities
>>287437894Many cast are from her previous work
>>287420238Holy based! So sick and tired of the low T simps who pretend the ugly ass demon bitch is hot or otherwise desirable. At least footfags - disgusting as they are - I can understand, because she shoved her foot in the second episode.
>>287438518You don't seem to understand how that works. high T people will fuck just about anything. especially a hag with big boobs like this demon, even if it's for no other reason than to say they've conquered a huge oni woman.
>>287420144Boring. It's like FMA but I don't have time to like the characters.
>>287420144>still unpopular on /a/I don't know about popularity, but the first episode sucked. What seemed like an interesting rural fantasy setting immediately is broken by modern technology. MC is completely clueless. The cute imouto immediately died for cheap shock value. The power system doesn't look interesting.
>>287438595Low T yappin that I didn't read

>>287436780But I specifically dislike Black Lagoon BECAUSE everyone is a criminal dickbag.
>>287437773Seems to be a trend in manga today to give a character creative cartoonish powers.
>>287436780she doesn't really need to be redeemed, because higashi village are assholes themselves, the entire story is assholes versus assholes because everyone wants to steal/kill kids for their powers
>>287438907Imagine during sex Gabu going>"gobble, gobble"while also doing the hand gesture, making you scared for your life and manhood but the next second she in fact goes for a blowjob, while continuing trying her best to say gobble gobble line with her mouth full of your cock while keeping eye contact with you. You thought you were about to die and get eaten by a jaw demon, but in fact she was going for a "gobble gobble" on your crotch with her hot small mouth. That feeling of mortal danger got replaced by a the pleasure of her insides in a span of 2 seconds.

>>287420144The pacing's very slow, the tone is weird, and Gabby doesn't do enough. It's still good, but not great.

It doesn't seem like it. It was a completely different phenomenon.Everyone knew Naruto in my country. No one knows what JJK is, unless they're already into anime.

I'm 32 chapters into this, and I can't seem to care about any of the characters.
>>287439836Almost everyone in this manga is a murderer it's okay
>>287439534
>>287439254>while keeping eye contact with youThat's important.
>>287439870Almost everyone else gets punished though?
>>287439836She did nothing wrong.
>>287423394JJK is meme. It won't have any legacy.
I don't like that the OP already spoiled that the two protagonists will soon join forces. I wanted to see more ryona of female Ed.
>>287439653This killed the Jujutsuzoomer.
>>287423598Probably gonna happen, you had people in Chile building mourning murals
>>287422635It absolutely was
>>287423292Too much competition, if fma came out today it won't be half as popular as it is now.
>>287440176It's irrelevant, the guy who replied to you is a goalpost moving JJKfag. No one cares what the reaction to <current era slop> will be in <the current era>. Naruto spawned a massive wave of anime that wanted to be next Naruto (JJK, KnY, MHA, BC, SnK). JJK spawned nothing, other than its own slop sequel. JJK doesn't have a single memorable fight across god knows how many hundreds of chapters. It's just watered down slop that copied Naruto while pretending to be HxH and benefiting from the grifter "anime expert" era.
>>287440163They're not really buddy buddy
>>287440198FMA is better than every single shonen mentioned in this thread except>CTRL+FJoJo and HxH.
>>287439836>Isn't she fucking evil?She might not be a moral paragon but believe it or not compared to a lot of characters in the manga she's a decent human being, just a bit unhinged which is a necessity given her work station. Andher behaviour in the raid is just her being pissed on Asa's behalf
>>287440218>KnYAs much as /a/ hates it you have to admit it's up there in its influence, it literally changed the anime industry
>>287420144To be fair, FMA also didn't get interesting until the dog died (for NPCs) / the greed arc which confirmed that the Hitler guy was indeed evil instead of keeping it a secret.
>>287440251Genuine mentally ill post. This guy thinks it changed the anime industry because "look 90 year old oba-chan bought the cartoon [that everyone on TV told her to buy and drooled over it with her two active brain cells]".It's like saying Infinity War (or whatever the biggest comic book hero slop) changed the movie industry, instead of being a product of the changed movie industry.There is no anime that wants to be the next KnY and there will never be one either.
ryona bait
>>287440308I don't remember seeing her like this in the anime
>>287439953Gabu got shot with arrows.She got her punishment.
>>287420238You are painfully gay
>>287429926She can have a side ho.
>>287440238It's strange how after so many characters have had their focus spots, she's been entirely a support character to Asa or picking up the fights where others can't and is still unexplained besides a huge amount of empathy for Tsugai. For Asa's bodyguard you'd think she'd get a focus spot sooner.
Yuru and Gabby should produce aryan offspring
>>287440308Will this version be on the bluray?

>>287439254Thank you for putting into words what I can feel within my soul
>>287442353>4. I know there might be a defense that Yuru might be hesitant to fight Asa because Migi confirmed that she's his blood-related sister, but as far as Yuru is concerned, she's a stranger who killed the sister he grew up with and promised to massacre the village. She's his enemy for all intents and purposes. And he should have zero hesitation to kill Gabby.If Migi confirmed that she is actually his sister, then there definitely is some stuff he doesn't know, and it's better to learn that first.As for Gabby, his intention probably was to shoot her limbs to immobilize and then ask why they attacked etc.
>>287442903>Should they just take the word of those mass murderers?He's taking the word of Dera. Who he's known a long time and trusts. Just watch episode 2 before complaining.
>>287442903>It doesn't matter. He just can't leave two mass murderers alone with the survivors.It just turned out that whoever he thought was his sister was actually an impostor, so obviously something was going on behind the scenes and he can't rely on his prior knowledge.
>>287443190>EvacuateNone of them expected someone to be able to break the barrier and come in with helicopters. It's a village hidden away for 400+ years for a reason.
>>287440237FMA is better than those two
>>287443190>He literally let half the village get massacred. How can such an incompetent guy be trusted?What do you mean? They even point out that Dera basically solo'd the entire armed squad of soldiers. The only reason he "let the village get massacred" was because he literally was partway down the mountain when it happened. No one had any way of knowing that the barrier was going to be broken and that attackers would literally fly in on helicopters.
>>287443292Because everyone he had encountered up to that point were like "You're Yuru! We are after you! Come with us now!" It's pretty easy to believe when Dera says that he's the one they are specifically after.
>>287443453>then the obvious conclusion to draw is that killed the villagers to draw him out.Not really, at that point with pretty much all the Kagemori troops on the mountain killed and gabby immobilized, they weren't really in a position to do something like that. And once Yuru's off the mountain, it's far easier to just try and find him and confront him in person. Now, if we are going into spoilers,Another enemy faction actually does kidnap one of the kids from the village in order to bait out Yuru. So it is something he has to worry about later down the line, but in this specific instance it wasn't really the case.
>>287443684Yeah and she wasn't in a position to do that. She had no more backup, her friend was injured, and her brother, the main reason she was there, had three powerful guardians protecting him one of which was shown to be able to negate her powers. She needed to retreat regardless of her feelings towards the village.
>>287443855I don't think that matters, considering she came down after him instead of staying in the village which clearly showed her priorities. Additionally he already sent Right to go make sure the villagers were okay, and he returned from that task. If there were still threats in the village he wouldn't have returned.And since Dera is one of the few people around him who seems to know what's going on, it makes sense for him to trust his judgement in this tense situation.
>>287423394I really hate that anime got so popular. Kimetsu no yaiba was just a generic shounen for retards. But Jujutsu really appeals to the most retarded low IQ nigger to the point their own fanbase admit they barely know how to read
>>287444222>You're looking at it from the audience's POV. Yuru doesn't know that.Yes he does she's literally right in front of him in that scene of course he knows she came down after him what are you even talking about>From Yuru's POV, he's a nincompoop who culdn't predict when the enemies would invadeYou're just inserting ideas into his head that Yuru would never have. If anyone here is viewing things from an audience POV instead of a character POV, it's you. There's no reason for Yuru to believe that Dera should have had the ability to predict an attack was about to happen because he has no scope of reference for the attack in the first place. What he has seen though is Dera clearly having knowledge of how the enemies work, and also knowledge of the supernatural powers they and now he possesses. A normal person wouldn't see that and say "well you're clearly incompetent". If you didn't like the episodes you don't have to come up with nitpicky convoluted reasons for not liking it, you can just stop watching it.
>>287420144cute
>>287444434Yuru did try to fight Asa, and she blew up one of his arrows. But more importantly he's hesitant to fight her since she's his sister. At first she thought she was lying but even Right could identify that they two of them were related. That's enough to make him hesitant to kill her. >>Made sure they left the village and the barrier was up before he himself leftBut he was the one they were after. Him staying there meant that they'd also stay there, or at least back off to get gabby to safety then attack again. He already has enough evidence to suggest they are after him specifically, both from their actions, what they've said, and what Dera told him. The smartest thing for him to do was to leave the mountain. You've come to a wrong conclusion and are now trying to twist all reasoning to suit your conclusion instead of realizing the story is pointing in the other direction.
>>287444330that's a cuck mentality. stop letting it bother you that things you don't like are popular and you'll be much more liberated
>>287428425I'm enjoying it! In fact, I'm stopping myself from reasing the manga right now in order to watch it weekly.
>>287420144>>287420238Magic system is boring.Spirits coming in 2 is unique, but not interesting. There's no restriction or prompt there, any arbitrary power is possible.Even worse, the main character's spirits are just some guys (guy and gal). Nothing special about their design or powers.
>>287420144How can the soldiers be so bad at shooting? Did someone cast a “Star Wars Stormtrooper" spell on them?
>>287444620It doesn't bother me that animes I don't like are popular, that's always going to happen. It bothers me that that anime in particular is popular.

>>287446217Mentally ill people are the ones who type stuff like>Kimetsukidor say stupid shit like>biologically maleWith zero evidence.You were absolutely mindbroken by KnY.
The OP reminds me how much I used to love Bones' typography.
>>287420144>>287420396Yure correct. I was in the first few threads it got. The manga started really kinda bland even though youre seeing an accurate adaptation, if you read these same few episodes in manga format you'd be ab it bored or at least skeptical.The threads died down after a while. It was monthly and at some point it got dropped from some of the aggregators so most ppl werent even finding the chapters.I think overall it improved, even as manga. And in anime format its already much better.
>>287423428>2 or moreRecently there have been a surprising 24 episode series. From the last year I have watched Kijin Gentoushou, Toujima Tanzaburou, Yuusha no Kuzu, now this. But when was the last time we had a 50 episode series like FMA (other than never ending battle shounen).
>>287442353>Just watched the first episode. The decisions taken by most of these characters confuse meThat's because you're stupid. And you don't pay attention to things.
>>287446471Not her, but you have literally no evidence that the author of KnY is a woman. There's plenty of hints that he is a man:>terrible characters>characters dying for drama>low emotional intelligence writing>female characters exist only to provide tits and nothing elsenot only does he get mogged by every popular female mangaka (not a single of Arakawa's female characters is anywhere as simple as the "deepest" KnY character), he gets destroyed by all good male battle shonen writers (Araki, Togashi, Fujimoto). Shit, he cannot even write female characters that can compete with popular-but-bad make mangaka (Oda, Kishimoto, Kubo... shit even the loser who wrote DanDaDan has more of a clue how to write women).I think you are indeed just screeching that the KnY author is a woman because you think that would somehow elevate your slop manga. Sad!
>>287434599Plus, Dragon Ball never tried to have a particularly deep story or try to tackle complex themes or narratives. Turns out the kind of story matters too.
>>287448300The singular title in the ED is nice, hope they use the grittier style for the part they're teasing
>>287448578Holy mother of projection. What is this level of mental illness?
>>287448753>no counter, just childish name calling, because he's afraid of all the mangaka I namedropped, even the bad onesI accept your concession.
>>287448654I don’t know what this means but I like it and Asa.
"Asa" is short for "Asagohan" = morning rice = breakfast."Yoru" is how the Japanese say "your".Together, they form "your breakfast".
>>287448800I asked for evidence, clown.The only thing you're conceding is that you're sperg clown. The way you feel about the work is not evidence, if that were the case I could tell you that I feel the author is a woman.Being this unhinged over a manga is not healthy.
>>287449373>>287448578>Not her, but you have literally no evidence that the author of KnY is a woman. There's plenty of hints that he is a man:I once again accept your concession. You're an argumentless kid with a tiny penis! Sad!
>>287449434I've been reading 4chan since 2019, watching anime since 2017 and I am 23 years old and I have a 12cm penis. You are an unhinged clown and I am an adult & veteran /a/ regular.
>>287448578Ironically there was some shitstorm on Japanese x (formerly twitter) just there because a feminist was going off on the tits in Kimetsu. You'll never believe what the unanimous response was.

>>287449434>>287449535I'm still waiting for that evidence, clown.
>>287448578>Not her, but you have literally no evidence that the author of KnY is a woman. Wrong. This was already a settled debate. They identify as a future-woman but they don't feel comfortable with female pronouns yet and they don't want to show their face in public either, logically. As such, it was officially concluded in the intellectual Kimetsu fandom on Reddit that they should be referred to as they/them. Hopefully, they will be able to afford the transition op after the final KnY movie.
>>287449949>Latrine NPC is just looping his shitpost cycleYou have no evidence, tiny dicked kid. Meanwhile, I have evidence that all real women reject the womanhood of the tranny author of KnY.Concession n4 accepted.
This is nice and all, but what are the REAL, TRUE signs that a mangaka is a girl?
>>287450116Most men, especially the male main characters, are shown as competent and skilled, even without cheat powers.
>>2874501161) Taking motherly care if their characters.2) Well written female characters.3) A world that cannot logically or financially sustain itself, even if it's otherwise well designed.There's no moid mangaka that does all of the above.
>>287450206>1) Taking motherly care of their characters.What precisely does this entail?
>>287449891he's literally the single antagonist in 95+ chapters or however many there are that didnt turn into an ally. He and the other new boss guy. The problem with this manga is that its too mild. all t he sides just mostly get along.
>>287449573lol
>>287450265Characters who would've been killed long ago are still alive late in the manga>random Chimera mooks in FMA>Fujita & the Cross Eyes that no one likes in DorohedoroIf a character dies, it's a huge tragedy you're constantly reminded of through the characters' motivations.>the guy with glasses in FMA>fucking a character who died in the first chapter with barely any lines in Dorohedoro
>>287449594>Kindachi mentionedCome to think of it, that sort of person probably would have assumed Fumiya Sato was a man because there's a panty shot within the first few pages of the first chapter.
>>287420144>The best the FMA lady can followup with is JoJos with Chainsaw Man elements.That's the problem.

>>287449891I lost interest in him around the time of the latest chapters because I realized that the mangaka likes him too much so he's basically going to be around for the whole series and the worst thing that will happen to him will be sacrificing himself for his JK orbiter.
>>287439953Not really.
>>287442353>I know there might be another defense that they don’t know how strong Asa isYuru is literally the ONLY one there who doesn't know how strong Asa is. Everyone else knows exactly how strong she is, which is "she can look at you and your head explodes".
You ever read a series that feels like it's largely gags and a lot of justification for the next fight rather than trying to figure what to do with itself properly? That's how it feels so far.
>>287420144I read some of this several years back; I remember that chick had murdered a shitload of innocent people including the protag's friends/family and then a few chapters later they were bantering like nothing had happened. I can tolerate a lot of anime cliches but not this one, so I dropped it.
>>287445418it ischeck piikeisandaa on bsky
>>287450496Any anime that basically has "Companion entity with gimmick power controlled by otherwise normal people" is in fact, a Jojo clone.This isn't necessarily a bad thing, S-Cry-Ed for example had a very compelling rivalry concept that drove its narrative in spite of Alters being Yu-gi-oh esque stands with far less imaginative power sets.It all depends on how she handles it and as of right now it's not that interesting.
The reason why it's not popular on nu/a/ is the lack of "Black coded" characters.
>>287436285probably not
>>287434177You have brain problems.

I came here to say the Ending is good but the Opening its shit. That's all, thanks for coming to my TED talk.
I dropped this after the 2nd episodeThe fact that these two bitches slaughter his whole village and he has no emotional response to it is crazy, he should have killed the chompers girl right thereAlso the fact that they say they gonna pull out of the village so then it’s safe ig but the kid doesn’t want more answers from the woman he saw KILL his sister that he was obviously obsessed with
>>287452662that concept is really old, jojo is hardly the first or the first popular series to do it. ite really obvious your started watching anime past 2015
>>287456282Not him, but the vast majority of people know almost no anime or manga from before the 80's, so Stardust Crusaders is the earliest you're going to hear about it in almost every case

For me it's when the boss of the Kagemori's died like a wet fart, with 0 buildup and 0 followup. What the fuck was up with that?

>>287462051The MC is a little simp bitch that forgives her instantly and doesn't do shit. The way the manga treats her actions is so retarded and inhuman; major character-centric morality that's dumb as hell. Bug-brained. I don't know what the fuck the author was thinking.
>>287462281>The MC is a little simp bitch that forgives her instantlyThis is wrong. He doesn't like the whole Kagemori Clan because of the village attack but he tolerates them because of Asa. He's more of a simp for the village cause he's still attached to them despite wanting him to kill himself.
>>287462412No, it's not wrong. I was exactly right. Does he kill her? Does he even keep fighting her? No, and no. Does he have retarded banter and Marvel-tier "frenemy" shit with her? Yes. Does he FUCKING THANK HER? Yes. Does she ever face any real fucking consequences? No. Exactly.
>>287462477You didn't even read the manga and read the spoilers in the thread. The ones you seem to have missed are that the village is completely fucked up and has a warped sense of morality that wants him dead. They literally hire assassins from outside to try to kill him. You could have atleast read the manga, retard.
>>287462525You didn't refute anything I said, dumbass! You just pulled out the UHHH OKAY BUT AKSHUALLY SHE WAS JUSTIFIED! So yes, he still is a fucking simp for her. Yes, he forgave her. No, she doesn't face consequences. Like I said. Retard!
>>287462579He didn't forgive her. They've barely even talked so far in this whole manga and the one convo they had you're bringing up was the second to latest chapter. They only thing they see eye to eye on is their love for Asa. Actually read the manga you dumb faggot.
>>287462608>He didn't forgive her!>They barely even talked until he forgave her in the second to last chapter!You're contradicting the fuck out of yourself, idiot! So he doesn't kill her, he doesn't even fight her anymore, and they see eye to eye now? It really makes me think! You fucking moron!
>>287462654You're retarded and just ignoring me explain the manga to you because you sure didn't read it. I didn't contradict shit.
>>287462695You can't even address any of my points, you stupid fuck. Because you're a goddamn coward that doesn't even have an argument. Fucking loser.>>287462477>Does he kill her? Does he even keep fighting her? No, and no. Does he have retarded banter and Marvel-tier "frenemy" shit with her? Yes. Does he FUCKING THANK HER? Yes. Does she ever face any real fucking consequences? No. Exactly.
>>287462654It's as if tons of events happen between the characters interacting with each other you massive faggot.
>>287420144The problem is Gabby is a side character instead of the main
>>287462720You're not going to listen to me because you just want to baby rage about the most obvious subversion that happens in the first chapter/episode.
>>287462727>He's not a simp!>Okay he's a simp BUT AKSHUALLY IT'S JUSTIFIED!You motherfucking retards just refuse to admit when you're wrong, so you try to reframe the entire fucking argument. Every fucking time. Bitch mode.
>>287462763You're just not going to directly address any points at all because you can't, you disingenuous cocksucker. Fucking coward. Bitch ass.>>287462654>So he doesn't kill her, he doesn't even fight her anymore, and they see eye to eye now?
>>287462771You type too much shit that nobody but you cares about.
>>287462808It's called having an argument, you braindead mutt. What would it be like if you didn't have breakfast this morning?
>>287462793You'll just keep ignoring my explanation. The village is evil. Yuru and Asa are both dealing with third parties targeting them. Gabu is Asa's best friend and body guard. The manga is 51 chapters long so far and Gabu is a side character who's only interacted with Yuru like twice so far and it's been to have temporary alliances to deal with bigger threats.
>>287440482I reckon if Arakawa wants to give her focus then a good spot would be whenever she wants to show when Asa's first time meeting with her and their bonding up until Asa's first death..>>287460621I agree, I like their dynamic but making Asa and Yoru blood related makes them an impossible pairing.
>>287463696I meant Gabu and Yuru. They owe eachother hate sex.
Yuru doesn't simp for Gabby but he SHOULD.Cute girls always deserve forgiveness no matter what they do. ALWAYS.If anything, Yuru should properly apologize by becoming her boyfriend and marrying her and having kids together with her.
>>287464427I know, I just wanted to act FUNNY >>287464625>t.AsaIt would be cute if she ships them.
>>287464625she'll bite yer dick off
>>287457895muh steaks or jobbing, one of the two
So what are the chances that this is just Yomi no Tsugai (2026) and later we will get a Yomi no Tusgai: Brotherhood? Is the manga anywhere close to finishing?
>>287420144The manga is slow for a monthly manga, and you don't really get a clear answer as to what's going on and who the bad guys are until after chapter 20 minimum. It's at chapter 51 and it finally feels like we're getting real movement
>>287465766It just feels like she just wanted to make a bunch of set pieces and cool moments, but couldn't be bothered to flesh things out properly to make those moments earned or believable.She wanted the 'wow' moments of FMA without the necessary buildup.>>287465837It seems to be reaching a major climax at the moment, but it is very slow paced.
>>287458917Are the jaws male or female?This is important question.
>villain groups motive is being salty over losing at sekigahara four hundred years agoisnt this really pathetic
>>287436962This manga introduces way too many characters, it's very shonen but it's a bit much
>>287462525To be fair we don't find how casually fucked up the village is until chapter 38, that's a pretty long time to wait
>>287465837>So what are the chances that this is just Yomi no Tsugai (2026) and later we will get a Yomi no Tusgai: Brotherhood? Brotherhood happened because 03 had its own storyline, if the anime is successful enough we will simply have more seasons.>Is the manga anywhere close to finishing?As of now, we have two major plot points to deal with: Asa&Yuru's parents and The underwater village, not to mention more info on Break&Seal + Yuru's first death which has been set up for a long time as a requirement for activating seal, I would say 50~ are to go perhaps. >>287465900>It just feels like she just wanted to make a bunch of set pieces and cool moments, but couldn't be bothered to flesh things out properly to make those moments earned or believable.That's probably one of my main issues with the manga and it feels very similar to JJK in this specific regard, some major stuff happen without the necessary build up&setup so as reader it's difficult to connect, click, or care much about beyond being "cool" or whatever. And the major antagonists' motivation is a really bad case of this.
>>287423292Death of the monoculture.Back in the days of yonder less shit was getting translated in general so people took what they could get and so there was more of a universal-experience aspect to being an anime/manga fan.Nowadays everyone's siloed off into algorithms of their own interests alongside likeminded people, so you have less overlap despite the medium technically being more popular than ever and having more stuff get translated than at any prior point in history.
>>287466199The extended flashback to Sekigahara was really bizarre, I just could not care. That was like two chapters featuring black silhouettes doing shit? I just can't care about the backstory, the manga's at its best when it focuses on Asa and Yuru's relationship and their search for their parents. All the faction politics stuff just doesn't work for me. I'm not even sure if Arakawa wants us to care, seeing as she makes the characters weirdly chill about it, as someone else pointed out. We have this 400-year-old blood feud and in-between murdering each other over it, the characters have tea and banter, despite it being their entire motivation
>>287420144I don't hate this show at all, but this is a very anime-ass anime so far.Like, it just has all the anime things that make an anime an anime.You take one look at this anime, and you just go, "yep, that's an anime."
>>287456205This is similar like when i watch Inuyasha where the beast guy literally massacre an entire village then in the next episode he becomes Inuyasha Rival for Kagome for the rest of anime. Its really weird. Isnt this guy makes FMA ??
>>287420144>still unpopular on /a/Not just /a/, Shes legitfully a hated character. She kills innocent people without remorse.The only good thing about her is she look like female Edward Thats why
>>287432168>someone else's novel seriesAre you a newfag or are you deliberately omitting the fact that Arslan is by the LoGH author?
>>287466708>innocent people
>>287466413>We have this 400-year-old blood feud and in-between murdering each other over it, the characters have tea and banter, despite it being their entire motivationThe tonal whiplash is honestly very weird here as even FMA/Silver spoon didn't run into it as much as YnT, it genuinely filters me from enjoying the manga at times because the mangaka presents (You) a serious story that as a reader you want to take seriously but the characters are not taking it seriously enough.I don't hate the manga, but these shenanigans make it difficult to truly love aside from the siblings and their goal.
