I don't think her getting shoved in the fridge was purely because gaygay hated the character. I imagine he came up with the sukuna dog pile arc relatively early on and realized boobara's CT would make short work of him so that was his very stupid and clumsy way of removing her from play until the end. I understand why he did it but writing the scene in such a way that she just stands there and let's mojito touch her without attacking was super dumb.

>>287776965
yuta fucking sucks dude, he's just cobbled together out of parts of other manga/anime gege liked but without any understanding of why those parts worked in their sources. (NGE, 12 kingdoms, etc) and on top of that there's the unfathomable hackery that gege showed when he, for all intents and purposes, retconned the climax of 0 because he couldn't bear the thought of not being able to write powerscaling slop with rika. he has no purpose in the main narrative (which shouldn't be explicitly connected with 0 anyway btw) except to fight meaningless fights and let gege masturbate about various powers, although that reveals that the actual purpose of the series as intended by gege is just that masturbation, everything around the edges that people actually enjoy is largely incidental or even accidental.

i'm just saying that he most likely botched nobara because he's a dumb hack on his first actual serialization, not out of spite.
>>
>>287777004
I think he wanted a sequel bait but let's be honest, even Yuji fans know he is not going to get shit anyway, why not just let him die? At least Todo is good but if he wasn't Todo gege would have focused on the fucking faggot with heart nipples instead, all to pretend Yuji was not friendly and likeable

No it's because they think everything Gojo "did" was for nothing, like Ui Ui is still being out there and Iori being obsessed with power or something
>>
>>287776868
>>287776965
>>287776739
This series makes me think the issue with her and Noelle from Black Clover is the lack of direction they have as characters.
Noelle is different in that she is a consistently powerful water mage but her creator did this thing of becoming indecisive between her and the Queen Witch candidate over Asta. A “minor” set up issue that has blundered the pay offs Noelle should’ve had from her great progress.

Nobara’s issue is that there was no big plan for her and other characters of Yuta and Gojo easily snatched away the author’s attention in fixing that.
>>
>>287777257
>Ui Ui is being a creepy siscon still so that means all the other improvements done to society don't count
People are so retarded man. Why must everything be an extreme?
Who gives a shit if Ui Ui is taking one year per disciple or something? He's still selling and teaching NSS. That's an objective improvement over how things used to be. One year of lifespan is fucking nothing in comparison to all the lives saved by NSS now being universal knowledge.
>NOOOOOOOO BUT HE'S MAKING LE MONEY IT'S OVER GOJO FAILED JUJUTSU SOCIETY IS STILL LE BAD
Like the very Ui Ui said after they beat Sukuna, stop being butthurt just because her sister managed to have gains and obtain benefits for herself through her contributions to the greater whole and greater good.

And he didn’t bring Gojo back just to spite the fans. Nobara returned because the anime boosted her popularity, and the same goes for Todo, who only came back because people loved that moment in the adaptation. Up until then, Gege had been writing for Japanese readers, most of whom were manga readers. With Takaba being a smaller deal than he would have been if the anime had picked up the culling game during its publication.

I just want to know what happened with the last Sukuna finger. People complain about no Megumi but the radio silence for Sukuna is so fucking weird and Gege actually likes Sukuna
>>
>>287778195
Are you retarded? JJK's last chapter explained all you needed to know, the finger is harmless since Sukuna already moved on to the afterlife and is just used as a talisman to ward off cursed spirits now. This is just as stupid as asking what happened to Gojo's body.

Gege milked that retcon-packed flashback for all it was worth
>Nobara inexplicably returned and got a massive power boost
flashback
>Yuta Frankenstein Gojo
Flashback, and also, to spite the fans
>Everyone came back
flashback, and the anime boosted his popularity

Even the “Yuji’s mom is Kenjaku” bit felt like a reaction to outsider effects. Maybe it’s a reference to Bleach or some deep cut. Since Gege is into Western media, like Marvel comics
>>
>>287776739
Gege hated a lot of characters. Poor Maki seems like his favorite but she got burned, lost her sister, rarely ever smiled again after Shibuya, and her only storyline is Naoya on loop. Oh and she's Yuta's cumrag, as if that's a victory. Come Modulo, she hates herself and wish she stayed a slave just so Mai would still be alive.
>>
Megumi being dead all this time prior to Modulo really made the entire last arc in Shinjuku so pointless.

Gojo and Choso really died for nothing.

We all tune in for Gojo vs Sukuna, it's the events after that we don't give a shit for unless you want Takaba vs Kenjaku live action

>>287777237
Every mahoraga (Megumi's, Sukuna's, and Yuka's) are equally as strong no matter who summons it, but Yuka's was out for so long and adapted to so much it became stronger than the others two's.

her having some kind of mommy issues was pretty heavily foreshadowed in her flashback chapter and by gege noting that her grandmother raised her in the fanbook, the problem is more how it's disconnected from the rest of the character threads, and how it just goes from vague hints to wrapped up after years of absence
>>
>>287777504
Has nobody ever told Gege that some thoughts are supposed to be inside thoughts?
Because conceding that prejudice and "sadistic impulse" well up in you while writing a story about progressivism and acceptance doesn't seem like the kind of thing you should say out loud.

It is still to little to excuse the last pages being about it.

He just got a lucky combination of a very annoying CT and the luck of sneaking a weakened and injured potential man.

His CT is decent against a glass cannon who needs a good hit like Nobara.
Potential man was left without any CE after fighting toji, and we know the taming ritual has no CE cost despite being a little too overkill.

Normally Haruta jobs with most of the cast but the weakest of the kyoto school

Gege deserved to struggle more. The retard was literally given the easiest Edgy Naruto for Zoomers ever, he got a lot of money while young, and all he did is spit out at the editor that made him millionaire while seething at his brother for just being a good and loved person.
While Gege spends every night pretending to care about some pakistani because he read some cucked doctor book during his mid life crisis days, his chad brother married and he is fucking his wife, probably even having a kid by now.
Fuck him. And I'm not even a megumifag, but I fucking hate ungrateful retards. You won't see me seethe at some youtuber who spent his money in some cool manor, married and had 4 children, I call him based, but gege? Fuck him. His shitty personality is why he is alone.
Like you said all he had to do is follow the formula and accept his own ideas fucking sucks.
And I wouldnt be surprised if the one writing the novel quit because gege is too retarded to deal with, hell, his writing is just low webtoon tier now, and I'm probably insulting those because gege structure in story doesn't even make any sense

If you want a likeable "strong" female character she has to be a sexual fantasy. I don't make the rules. Women don't belong in combat roles to begin with and men only tolerate them because fucking the sexy sniper badass is a hot fantasy.

I just think JJK's popularity is hard carried by Gojo alone because holy shit, a lot of characters just suck ass

>Yuji
Despite housing the main villain, he feels more like the ping pong ball by everyone else
>Megumi
Why does this dude exist? Even Bakugou had more involvement in his story
>Nobara
Only decent one of the "trio" but her return makes no fucking sense
>Maki
No comeuppance for her genocide just because men bad
>Yuta
Who asked for this dude?

Sukuna is cool but i fear the lack of info about him and his lack of appearance prior to the last arc makes him passive as a villain.
Kenjaku could've been good but the whole shit with him being Yuji's mom was just pointless since they never interacted. Ffs, at least Megumi fought Toji

for me, the biggest weakness JJK has is the lack of any sort of worldbuilding, there was (ahem) potential but it's like Gege is allergic to giving more insight to outside the enclosed spaces

To put it more simply. Gege fucking sucks at anything that's not about fights. The mere idea of characters just simply talking to eachother is alien to Gege. Nobara and Gojo never talked to eachother at all. And don't get me started on how very few give a shit about Yuta and Maki being the canon couple and I'm not even a yurifag

What makes you think he's alone? The last time we heard about him he was hanging out and drinking with friends/coworkers. He's just a nerd with a normie older brother, and was probably just a bit annoyed growing up that his classmates and teachers were always like "hey aren't you that guy's little brother? I bet you'll have good grades like him" and that's it. It happens to everyone with a small age gap between siblings, even the British princes had that, with Harry complaining about William in his autobiography. And with Gege being very rich and famous and already hiding his identity before that was the case, there's no way he'll tell anyone about who he's dating, marrying or fucking except his friends irl. Tsudaken had to foemally apologize to his crazy fangirls for being married and having kids before magazines could leak photos showing his family.

>>287779461
A woman would never write something as corny as Nobara screaming "I like being cute and you're victimizing yourself" to a teenage girl who later gets murdered by her abusive father. That's too naive and on the nose. It's written like Gege was a faggot who loves girl power story.

Iori was a grown man. Iori wa a grown man who made the decision to follow Yuji without his permission. Iori was a father who made decision to abandon his kids. Yuta and Maki were alive. Yuta was the Gojo clan head, and he did NOTHING to stop Iori. Yuta and Maki refused to tell Tsurugi about Iori.

Yuji is not the Gojo Clan head. Yuji is not Iori's father. Iori bitched about the next generation being weak, yet the Gojo put the ban on 10 Shadows which bottlenecked Yuka's growth. And some how that's Yuji's fault. The fucked up dynamic of Iori and his family falls on the Gojo Clan's head not on some outsider like Yuji. Yuta must be a bastard if his son would rather call another man "daddy."

Two arcs. She spends on arc recovering from Shibuya like several characters did, then showed up to surprise Sukuna. I don't get why this is a problem.

I don't get /a/'s hate boner for post-Shibuya JJK. Is it that you became attached to the main group and were butthurt to see them take a backseat in the finale? I don't get this mindset. Every character has a role to play in the story. And the series is only 270 chapters long. In Naruto and One Piece, the main heroine at those points had one real fight and one meme fight.

Making Tsumiki an actual character would work wonders. Because a lot of fans don't even remember she exists and that hurts a lot as to why Megumi just gave up the will to do anything.

But either way, I don't think Megumi would be received well because a lot of his character hinges on the idea that he's a failure in every single aspect.

JJK is popular but good god you are never going to see a Megumi fan out on the streets or even within JJK fan circles due to how relentless fans think of him.

Literally playground fight and megumi was stopped before he could get serious

Fight was interrupted and none of the students came close to beating hanami who wasn't even serious

Similar situation to hanami and it was after Megumi put in an MVP performance against Dagon

It's not that bad. The only safe spaces if you're a Megumi fan is if said circle is a bunch of fujos or you know,

Japan where he is loved there instead of hated.

She's nice and has a social life, a good little contrast to Megumi's moodiness

>>287796324
I've been to comic cons before and I get that

There were many JJK cosplayers but I've never seen a single Megumi despite a lot of Yuji/Gojo/Sukunas/Makis/Tojis. That dude is not loved outside of Japan.

Yuji also lost a fuckton of fights yet people don't try to push the cope that he's meant to be sad and pathetic since the beginning
>>
>>287796426
Because Yuji still kept on fighting despite being severely outmatched. Megumi gives up and considers Mahoraga when he thinks he can't win a fight. It was a wonder he didn't use it on Reggie nor Kirara
>>
>>287796426
Yuji has a stronger willpower than Megumi. It's cliche but a shonen MC not giving up is still an admirable trait

Both Yuji and Megumi lost a lot in the beginning and in the middle but they still went up and standing. What really soured people on Megumi is that he gave up while Yuji was fighting to save his life in the last arc. It's really retarded that all of Megumi's character development went straight to the trash for the sake of subversion that in reality, he was some sad pathetic loser who gives up despite we were shown that he was finally getting away from that mentality.

Don't get the agendafagging obsession either with Megumi and I still never will

Because agendas are like Zoro vs Sanji, Naruto vs Sasuke, Mihawk vs Shanks, Gojo vs Sukuna, Yuta vs Yuji. Both individuals with equal importance and strength. But Megumi is so blatantly outclassed as the series went on and yet people won't fucking shut up about him.

>>
>>287795383
That's perfectly okay. 140 chapters isn't a lot. It's a short story with a lot of characters and our main protagonists are high schoolers. They're at the beginning of their lives. It wouldn't make sense for them to steal all the spotlight. Same reason Gon never meets Meruem.

It was obvious Nobara didn't die, Arata served no purpose otherwise. She needed time to recover and wanted to pay Yuji back for when he faked his death. It just so happened to be this lined up with the climax. She couldn't come back at the start of the Culling Game, more time needed to pass, but after the Culling Game, there was a time skip while everyone trained and moped about. She had to either come back to surprise Sukuna or come back after he was defeated. Those were the only options.

I've been trying to put myself in the shoes of /a/nons upset at JJK's ending and I think half the butthurt comes from characterfags. I read the whole manga in a week and I detest characterfags, but I can imagine what it must have felt like to speculate every week, be a big fan of a character and go years without seeing them do the stuff you hoped you'd see. Panda comes to mind. He beats Mechamaru and gets recommended for Grade 1, then does nothing in Shibuya, finds Yaga dead, provides commentary for Megumi in his fight with the tranny, finally pulls out his sister against Hajime and she does nothing - he gets fucked so hard he retires and becomes a background plushie, and that wouldn't have happened had Hakari been 30 seconds faster.

When I look at it THAT way, I can empathize. But JJK is 270 chapters, not 700, and Gege was never interested in telling character arcs. Almost none of them reach the goals they set at the start of the manga. Why would they, in 6 months? Like Mahito said, this isn't a fairy tale. It's like that.
>>
>>287796803
>>287796844
To be fair, before all the slander started, we all thought megumi would get stronger as he was understandably the edgy rival dude of the duo. None of us expected things would go extremely bad for him to the point he became massively known as the biggest joke character of the series.
>>
>>287796879
Says the Yutafag that got everything lmao
>>

Because we wanted to follow the trio, instead we are forced to see Gege asspulling Yuta and Rika back and forced to care about Maki arc.

>>287796803
Slander becoming so common honestly ruined a lot of anime and manga discussion. It's not just Megumi but he is the biggest example of a character you can't talk about without idiots screaming bum or fraud

One piece discussions also became fucking worse when JJK tier slander hit the stride.
>>
>>287796927
Most hatred comes from Gojo and Yuta fans I think, Sukuna has its own niche and his design is pretty recognizable. Besides I doubt animeonlies will hate the Sukuna gaunlet.

Sanjifags and Zorofags managed to ruin any discussion. /OP/ is fucking bad it made people not even like the zoro Sanji duo anymore, never saw fags taking some rivalry so fucking seriously, add Kiku shit and you get the same tranny spam over and over

Sukuna is the most popular anime villain of the 20s
>>
>>287796803
Megumi was the deuteragonist, people expected him to grow to a similar level as Yuji, but instead he is removed in the final third of the story to make way for characters who barely have an arc like Yuta or completely random characters like Takaba.
>>
>>287796522
...And yet
>>
>>287796927
He kinda is after 236 but I think like they said above, it's mostly Gojofags being like sanji and zoro taking it too seriously. You can see people liking both Yuji and sukuna despite both characters hating each other to death.
Also sukuna relies less on gojo vs sukuna and more on Sukuna boomer memes
>Reddit downvote those
And they up vote those if it's Sukuna x gojo so it's more like them desperately need Sukuna attention on Gojo
>>
>>287796939
I get it. But what I'm referring to is that. Agendas are commonly used to pit two characters and their fans to be vile to eachother because they know their character has feats and moments to back up enough to autistically fight against. It's why Sanji vs Zoro is still an effective method of discussion albeit very stupid.

But Megumi? Fucking shit, man. This is the equivalent of people kicking down a homeless man who is already on the verge of dying. It's just flat out mean spirited. Nothing in JJK showed Megumi as someone with an iron will to get stronger nor has any motivation or goals for him to get stronger. I've had retards slandering megumi because he lost the Zenin fortune because of Maki when in the exact same arc. Megumi says to Maki that he didn't want the position and inheritance to begin with. It's just so retarded how many people just missed the point that Megumi was never going to be some powerscaling fantasy character.
>>
Gege was extremely retarded to bench nobara for that fucking long and he was rightfully shat on for that. Nobara getting put in a coma after getting her face/head blown off like she was the average male divorcee was extremely egregious. Especially since he made it seem arata himself was lying to Yuji about nobara possibly surviving.

If you go to Piratefolk, Usopp is basically their Megumi in terms of how they treat him. And believe me, it's nothing but hatred towards that character.
>>
>>287796907
I'm not a characterfag. Characters are tools. I actually didn't like that Yuta killed Kenjaku AND made it back in time to fight Sukuna. His part in the Sukuna fight was great, so if I could rewrite it I'd have someone else killshot Kenjaku. Maybe Maki since I don't even remember what she did to Sukuna. I think I could believe her running back more than I could believe Yuta doing it actually. Or maybe Mei Mei could get off her ass and get revenge for Kenjaku allegedly almost killing her in Shibuya. Her crows and Ui Ui's teleportation should make it more plausible. Most chatacters were used perfectly, though.

Like Uryu in Bleach.
Also, Yuji didn't do anything to make himself seem stronger than Megumi. I feel like you guys are imagining him 1v1ing Sukuna when really he shows up after Gojo neutered him, and did nothing until all the other heavy hitters were out, and even then he only put up a fight because Choso sacrificed himself and Todo saved the day once again and then Hana showed up and Nobara landed a critical hit and then even Megumi helped and I can keep going but I think you get my point.

>>287797164
Uryu is not a deuteragonist in any arc, apart from the final one.

Yuji has become quite strong by the final battle. People expected Megumi to complete his domain and have a more active and important role in the final arc, it isn't complicated.

I read all battle shounen. How can you even begin to think your opinion matters when you only read one or two manga?

Did you just use "you" to refer to one manga I read? Jesus Christ, are you black? That would explain a lot...

But I can tell you one person who thinks Hunter x Hunter is better than every other manga: Gege. JJK rips off HxH every other chapter. He bawled his eyes out when Togashi wrote a blurb in one of the tanks. That's the last manga you should be shitting on. Although JJK takes a little bit from everything.
>>
>>287797306

>>
>>287797015
This is why I don't get Megumi slander if it a means of agenda. By this point. Megumi is no longer in the leagues of becoming top tier. He never had the mindset to reach that level. People expected way too much out of a kid who wants a normal life.
>>
>>287797342
>Normal kid
Megumi is completely fine and has zero qualms with killing people even Yuji would at least fucking say sorry to a cursed womb. Megumi isn't a normal kid. He's simply a fucked up kid who wishes to be normal.
>>
The story of JJK takes place within six months with no breathing room for anyone to train.

Not sure how anyone expected a lot of characters to go special grade level at the end of it. Maki getting her tojification didn't make her special grade. Sukuna made her his bitch. Yuji getting all those powerups and he still needed everyone's help to beat Sukuna. Expecting megumi to be fucking gojo level is just unrealistic even for a series like JJK.
>>
>>287796991
Yuji was going to let Sukuna use his body to kill as many people as Sukuna wanted in exchange for saving a guy he knew for two weeks max, and the only reason why it didn't go through was because Sukuna told him to fuck off not because Yuji came to his senses and changed his mind like Megumi did with Mahoraga on a few occasions. Even Megumi wasn't this big of a bum.
>>
>>287797016
And he made her a single, childless cat lady kek
Hell he even rather use fucking Takada over Hagbara for the fucking definitive jjk ending
>>
>>287797411
The problem is that he becomes somewhat useless. If he had two chapters focused on fighting a weak Sukuna or fighting alongside Yuji, half the criticism wouldn't exist.
>>
>>287797418
>Sukuna told him to fuck
Man I miss Sukuna, him being a hater was hilarious
>>
>>287797411
Isn't the point that most sorcerers develop and get better through combat? This is literally how megumi even unlocks his Domain Expansion
>>
>>287797411
Megumi didn't need to reach his potential. We just needed him to be useful and keep on fighting. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.
>>
>>287797240
He's Yuji's blue oni, the melancholic in his four man band. A lot of importance was placed on Megumi - by Sukuna, because he wanted his body, and he got it. This was so Yuji could save Megumi, like how Megumi saved Yuji. This narrative makes perfect sense.

Megumi never becomes as strong as Gojo, and Gojo wanted him to, but that's because the story's too short. He might have as an adult, but that's not part of the story. Even without Mahoraga, his ability evolved a lot throughout the story so I don't doubt he'd improve more.

>>287797411
They wanted it to be like Naruto with Team 7 floating in the fourth dimension and battling an evil moon goddess.
>>
>>287797411
Never really liked how JJK handled how characters get stronger. It's like you need one battle to unlock everything, Training be damned.,

coughcoughDaburacoughcough
>>
>>287797439
>>287797462
He was instrumental in the Culling Game and then lost his body. You can't fight off an incarnated sorcerer possessing you, especially not 19+1 fingers Sukuna, ESPECIALLY after the bath. Yuji digs him out and then he's about to trip Sukuna with his shadow. I don't know what else you wanted him to do in that situation.
>>
>>287797533
Lol That's just plot device bullshit. The author can write whatever crap he wants and have two chapters of fighting for him.

I think if we just saw a completed version of megumi's domain expansion he'd get less shit. It's kind of like how people were mad we only saw Hanami's domain expansion in the mobile game only.

I think Gege just gave up on Megumi entirely after realizing how badly he fumbled him. It's like he's embarrassed as to how he wrote him and why he's not in Modulo with no info as to what happened to him

>>287797495
>It's like you need one battle to unlock everything
Like how Gojo unlocked RCT in one battle...but still couldn't teleport or use DE. Or how Mahito unlocked DE in one battle...but still didn't reach his full form. Or how Maki became equal to Toji in one battle...but then learned how to move midair.
>Training be damned
The entire final battle is the result of training to learn abilities they hadn't learned yet.

Zenitsu is only good if he's not talking which is unfortunately 5% of the time.
Yuno is just boring on top of being the worst gary stu to grace shonen.

You're right, he could write a terrible story where a 15-year old fights off the greatest sorcerer to ever exist in a never before seen disadvantage and then he rips out of Sukuna's body and floats in the air with aura pouring off him and everyone's like, "Is that Fushiguro," and Maki goes, "Could the legends be true? Has he become...THE SUPER ZENIN?" and then he looks at Sukuna and says, "You killed my sister...and my teacher...and even my will to live...but I'll never let you hurt MY FRIENDS!!!" and then he fires a BLACK KAMEHAMEHA and Sukuna disintegrates into the dust and all the brown people watching at home jump out of their Jordans screaming: "LET'S GOOOOO!" "THAT'S MY NIGGA FUSHIGURO!" "SASUKE WHO?" "PUT SOME RESPECT ON HIS NAME!" "V
BAKUGOU WHO?" "WILLPOWEEEEEEEEERRR!"

Bakugou’s entire environment is a completely toxic mess in that he actually does take responsibility for everything and is the most disciplined dude at the school and treats it as if it’s a military camp, not some kind of people pleasing center to relax in (because people legitimately die IRO if they don’t listen to basic police officers telling them to fucking leave a disaster area).

And his author genuinely thinks it’s funny for Bakugou to reinforce the abuse he gotten from his own mother as comedic relief instead of being completely sinister. All Might and his own teacher saw his parents and they don’t think, for some reason, Bakugou needs more than minor behavior corrections after seeing his mom told him that the raid is all Bakugou’s fault.

Despite Bakugou being this erratic boy, he takes everything a lot more seriously than his own peers that he would go to a military school, 100% willingly, if it meant he would be a better hero. But instead, the author of MHA and the retarded heroes, who saw their own friends die in literal quirk wars with Bakugou almost being one of those casualties, thought that Bakugou should focus on being less rude for the sake of being the most popular hero in Japan.

How in the fuck could these heroes that know Bakugou almost died at multiple instances on the job and fully aware of his home life and his professional routines give more fucks about a fleeting popularity contest over his actual mental stability and life. How the fuck are these bugs even called heroes when they can’t even give their most professional and powerful hero basic help? Why the fuck is Endeavor the only dude out of anyone that actually gives more fucks about fixing their personal lives instead of this worthless popularity contest?

Oh my God! Nobody cares Bakugofag! Shut the fuck up MHA was dogshit in the latter.

Alright I think I figured out now what happened with Megumi and how it correlates to why Yuji only fucked off after Hana died.

Megumi and Hana obviously get together as per his promise at the end of the original series. However, Megumi couldn't get rid of his cuckold desires thus later on he left a message/last will telling how Yuji needs to marry/take care of Hana then "killed" himself (actually he just stayed hidden in the shadows). Yuji had to fulfill Megumi's last request so he did get together with Hana until she died then he could finally leave. Megumi was satisfied with what he saw so he finally actually killed himself by trying to tame Mahoraga one more time.

>anime fans "OMG NOBARA IS SO COOL, SHE CAN FIGHT AND SHE'S BADASS AND SHE HIT A BLACK FLASH, SHE'S SAKURA BUT DONE RIGHT!"
this was basically the start of MHA, fags swore it was a big game changer

The thing is , people genuinely like nobara because of her bratty personality and her being an unga bunga bitch.
So it was disappointing for her to be reduced like usual, she was fun to have around and had good chances to be interesting and well developed if gege wasn’t such a huge faggot.

It is so rare to have a female companion having such a good chemistry within the main group and having her being unhinged

>Yuno is just boring on top of being the worst gary stu to grace shonen.
Thankfully, Asta mastered him. Yuno got mogged and works for Asta. Yuno will have to call Asta "My LORD" for the rest of his life.

Same with CSM fags pretending it was revolutionary. This is what happens when all you’ve read or watched were Jump battle shonen and SnK. What’s funny is both series never lived up to what dumbass western fans paraded them as. JJK wasn’t some dark mature battle shonen different from others and CSM wasn’t some psychological character study
