Last thread died. I know it's a show about an axed book and we're all still confused but the previous threads sustained a while.
More like Brat Torch
>>289816851Nice ass damn
bad CGI venom
>>289818226>Maid you have to come with me>I'm all sweaty is there time to shower>NO!!
I haven’t even seen ep4 yet. Here’s your obligatory>They should have adapted Heart Gear
Look how cute she was. Before she was overcome with hate and despair.
>>289820376What did she see?
>>289820310>>289820376The mom bit is one of the plots I'm wondering if they'll wrap up in the anime version. They said the baddie that got her was still at large but I don't recall if they ever specifically mentioned who it was. So it might be pretty easy just to say it's one of the villain group so they could make some easy changes to put a bow on that.
>Koga
assbros...
I think the action scenes are competent. But something feels off.
>>289820837we live>>289820874this episode was a bit choppier than the previous
Here comes Rear Devil.
with each episode it becomes increasingly obvious why this was cancelled, it's like the author read "shonen manga for dummies" and wrote this lol
>>289821830and yet so much worse gets hundreds of chapters
God I wish I were him
>>289821492d-double ass shot!
>>289821919triple if you count the butler
>>289822467Usami better
>>289819502>Naomi OzoraAh no wonder her voice grated my ears
>>289816851It's even worse than Mobeus Dust, anon.
>>289822857You're worse the mobeus dust
>>289821830all japanese manga industry is in great part "X genre for dummies" in great part
>>289823336Frankly I think you're ahead of the curve if your MC doesn't want to be Magic Pirate Hokage King
>>289821830Yeah. Don't have anything bad to say about it, but it's just unremarkable.Feels like the building blocks of an action shounen without the flare of one. Without the carateristics to make it stand out.
>>289818425Black Torch > Heart GearI'll always stand by this.
>>289820874Still frames mixed with blurs. But I accepted it. I doubt we were gonna get top-notch animated action from an adaptation for a cancelled manga.
>>289823995I feel like it wasn't even given a chance to advance from its beginning. It was clearly trying to set plots up and establish characters but it had to abruptly wrap things up.
>>289824791It's the fate of axed series, it's only logical. But I feel that what has been shown so far isn't enough to grab attention. You've got to have something that stands out even if you were still at the setting up stage.
>>289821830So what did JJK, CSM, and Gokurakugai do right that Black Torch do wrong?
>>289825552>>289825874Ichika fanart? Fug yes.
>>289825874nothing, they were simply luckier
>>289825874It's hard to predict what catches, some things just come out in the wrong place at the wrong time. A lot of the most iconic shows were cancelled and rebroadcast to better success
>>289818226Any other Ichika stitches for this episode?
>>289816851Her ass just digs out off the skirtImpressive
>>289826006It hasn't been a lot but it's been more than we've had
>>289827419Holy sex
>>289816851It's becoming really obvious the studio has to ramp up Ichika's ass shots because of how boring the show actually is It's like Tougen Anki all over again but without the fujopandering
>>289828431Tougen Anki was at least successful. Black Torch got axed
>>289828431They know that Ichika's ass is the only good thing about this and yet they didn't just rewrite everything to turn this into an ecchi romcom. The mind it boggles.
>>289828431I don't think it's that bad, and I like this more than Tougen Anki. That said, Ichika is amazing.
>>289826664
Not nearly enough Ichika ass shots this episode.
At least Ichika is cute and the ass shots are niceTougen Anki's breast jobs are so stupid, I can't get off to them
>>289830238I want to steal her scrunchy
>>289830315This
>>289816851>5 volume runso what's the reasoning behind making an anime adaption 8 years later for a manga which is dead
>>289831207We've been asking that since the announcement.
>>289831297i've seen this happen a few times now. makes no sense. imagine asking the mangaka to start the manga up again after 8 years because it became popular.
>>289831445I'd love to see it get a few more volumes to wrap up more plots.
>>289825874for JJK and CSM, they simply just got lucky that the characters they had got instantly popular with the readers, especially for JJK's case. Gojo was that massive. The most popular in Black Torch seems to be Ichika but she's a dime a dozen porn filler character. MC is a generic hotblooded idiot and glasses guy is a lost cause since his design sucks for popularity.
>>289832689Mocha no!
kinda sad how every thread for this is the exact same series of comments, just slightly less each time
>>289820874Competent? There's zero sense of inertia and impact, they just randomly slowdown for effect.
>>289833159There's really nothing to say.
>>289833159I reckon next episode will have slightly more, this one is just people fight.
>>289821830Yeah, this is honestly worse than Tougen Anki because at least that has an interesting premise. This show just feels really by the numbers like Red Hood or that dumb ice manga by the same guy
>>289825874>>289832042I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that this show would be much more remarkable if it was just about Ichika and didn't try to force a boring male lead.
>>289832042>MC is a generic hotblooded idiotYou say this but it's really rare to get a shounen MC like this nowadays. All the popular shounen MCs in the current era are nice guys with aura . Not loudmouth jerks
>>289834817Yuji?
>>289834844He's a little stupid but he's not loud nor a jerk.
>>289834881Yuji works because everyone around him is an asshole or extremely bland. Him having generic shonen protag traits makes him stand out.
>>289834844He's actually a nice guy. His fans just make him seem like an asshole by giving those stupid aura fanarts
My main annoyance at the moment is that Rago and MC have great banter with each other, but they barely interact. I want more development between them, the other side characters are really just kinda meh.
>>289834881>>289834940Yuji being generic shonen MC unironically works in his favor because he's in JJK. Where nobody else follows standard shonen protocol
>>289825874im no big fan of any of these, but they have more originality in a single chapter than black torch does over its entire runtime
>>289834817Denji seems to be the only recent example I can think of but even then, he's a very debated MC.
>>289834817>All the popular shounen MCs in the current era are nice guys with auraWho started the trend? Deku?
That nosedive in animation quality. God bless I can drop it now. It's like their director and QA died on the same day or something.
>>289835388im waiting for she
>>289835927>>289834817I wish the punkish archetype would make a comeback. I'm sick of sad sacks with self esteem problems.
>>289816851>Anime aimed at amerimutts and blacks with nigger ass shots every minute>AxedLmao reminded me of keijoAlways a pleasure to see anime going woke
>>289839340you're a special kind of retarded
>>289825874Gokurakugai is just on a more lenient magazine.
>>289835927It started in like forever but I believe both Deku and especially Tanjiro paved way for the more kind hearted good boy type of Shonen MC than the loud retards that Naruto/Goku/Luffy are known for
>>289842651>>289835927I'd argue shoyo hinata also played a big role, haikyu was a big sucess and while hinata was loud his personality is hardly brash.
>>289839340You don't even know what woke means
>>289821830The art is good. The mangaka is god tier artist
>>289834817I think it's because having two jerks as both the MC and the rival tend to be redundant or stupid apparently. Hence why we got Deku and Bakugou, two polar oppositesJJK has no rival for Yuji so to speak (Megumi doesn't count because he never acts like one) so it's more like shounen was ditching behind the old concepts that comprised the shounen people in the Big 3 grew up in
Ichika's mom being turned into stone is kinda metal.
>>289846631Ichika's mom backstory is even weirder.
>>289848539ye we didnt get to see it. her plot is big tho so im happy
>>289828431Well, the manga got cancelled because of that. I still don't understand how a read-and-discard manga got an anime, but here we are.
>>289849894>Well, the manga got cancelled because of that. I still don't understand how a read-and-discard manga got an anime, but here we are.Maybe the licensing rights were cheap.
>>289851925hot
why did Jiro try to drug Reiji with a marijuana soda last episode?
>>289855535Too much of a stiff for him not to try something.
