There is a difference between Western comic books (superhero) and Eastern manga (mostly shonen) in terms of archetypes.In capeshit, archetypes define powerset. The flying brick is super strong and can fly: Omni-Man, Superman, Homelander, and Gladiator all have pretty much the same powerset, but different personalities.In manga, archetypes are about personality: tsundere, kuudere, or the goofy glutton main character like Luffy or Goku. But despite similar personalities, all of them have different powers.
The latter is why I don't like mainstream movies, "oh look it's that faggot AGAIN".
>>153135835In my opinion these genres have become more credible over the ears
>>153135835More or less, yes.
>TRANime>TRANgaDon't care. Still won't read it.
>>153138701fpbp
>>153138701More trannies have worked in comics than in manga.
>>153135835What if we could have characters with different personalities AND different powers?
>>153135835It’s because in America caste is determined by your appearance and in Japan caste is determined by what you studied in high school
>>153135835>all of them have different powers.And yet they all just end up punching while thinking about friendship.
comics>you get colors>but the lineart is sloppymanga>you only get black and white>but the lineart is top tier
>>153135835>But despite similar personalities, all of them have different powers.The powers are always "punch/stab hard">>153141210>but the lineart is top tier"No."DaDaDan is the only ongoing shonenslop with good lineart
>>153141210>>but the lineart is top tierManga line art sucks and it's decompressed to hell. Have fun watching one fight for a whole fucking year.
>>153141210Americans don’t know what a G-pen is
>>153142074>Have fun watching one fight for a whole fucking year.I will. I love that shit.
>>153138701Based.
>>153141250>>153142074What about Tower Dungeon? Tank Chair?
>>153142099>Americans don’t know what a G-pen isIf you don't ink with brush or classic crowquill nibs you are low-T(this is why Japs don't have kids and modern comic artists are largely troons
>>153144558Nice fanfic
>>153144558Frazetta didn't do much comics.
>>153142099Gay pen?
>>153141210It's so clear you don't actually read comics.>>153141250>>153142074It's so clear you don't actually read manga.
Stop reading marvel/dc capeslopStop reading weekly shonen jump nekketsu slop.
>>153146129However>>153148039>stop reading """capeslop"""Nuh uh
>>153142074When you have to make weekly chapter, the artwork is going to suffer a bit. I find manga that are release biweekly, it tends to look better.
>>153135835You raise a fascinating argument, Mr. The Hulk.
>>153135835What kind of "Dere" is She-Hulk?Surely there isn't one for obnoxious?
>>153135835Power systems, that's what makes the difference, chakra, stands, curse energy, quirk, etc... it provides the most insane types of powers, only in manga and anime can you get a guy who's ability is to erase a portion of time (king crimson is confusing as fuck still) it allows for more varied writing and strategies the characters have to figure out, soft counters and hard counters or simply outwitting the opponentIn comics it's about a particular weakness like kryptonite or literally the colour yellow, and the powers pretty much fall into three categories, the superman type, the spiderman type, and the literal omnipotent god type which makes them pretty boring (not spider man tho spidey is the goat i am not biased.) Couple that with the recycled characters who seem to never die and always comeback or is "le alternate timeline" and things just get boring Manga >>> Comics. (except for Spiderman because Spidey>>>everything)
>>153135835>*Eastern" MangaSo just Japan>shonenIs a demographic not a genre
>>153151734NahI still considering TRoT to be masterpiece
>>153138701My HERO!!
>>153135835consistent writing thanks to manga being written by a single author. No retcon bullshit.
>>153151826Not Japanese=not MangaInb4 "but French" they copy the format and the codes but they are manga the same way Avatar is an anime.
>>153151551>except for Spiderman because Spidey>>>everythingSpider-Man doesn't have any good comics.
>>153146129point remains the same.Brush is for CHADS.
>>153153871Wrong
>>153138701Retard.
>>153151551>the powers pretty much fall into three categories, the superman type, the spiderman typeJesus this is so retarded. Do you even read comics and not base your opinions on the garbage normalfags say? Almost any character like Hyperion, Sentry, and Plutonian exists just because they're parodying, satirizing, or deconstructing Superman. Not enough of them to say that they're a real category. And most spidermanlike character failed, so they don't copy him a lot.>the literal omnipotent god type which makes them pretty boringThey can be interesting ffs, there are many good runs. And what about the street level characters???!Seriously, did you just watch the new shitty movies and shows?>In comics it's about a particular weakness like kryptonite or literally the colour yellowI can't believe that kryptonite and yellow broke normalfags so much. Not everyone has specific weaknesses, and when someone has it they can't be used in every story because it would be boring>"le alternate timeline">implying good stories don't existSorry for behaving like an autist. I wouldn't mind if you just said that you prefer manga, but your arguments against western heroes are full of misinformation>>153153871You're also retarded
>>153138701
>>153155316This is trash.
>"comics">is only referring to capeshit >"manga">is only referring to shonenslop
>>153149704Jorodere
>>153138701HULKbro........
This fag is a redditor >>153138701
>>153138701>the HERO and a PILLAR of /dbg/>even the FOIDS cannot fathom himI kneel.
>>153156490Elaborate>>153156525It shouldn't be like that, but that's what people usually think about when referring to comics and manga, even OP is specifying that he wants to talk about that>>153156670Ewww is that Crystal cafe?
Wait a second, in superhero team books, the serious leader guy, the semi-loner guy who butts heads with the leader, and the dedicated smart guy tend to have different power sets even though the personality archetypes are repeated.
Everyone should read both manga and comics.
>>153156564You made that up.
>>153149704Cuntdere
>>153161523This.
>>153135835What about Powerscaling?
>>153135835Are there "Jobbers" in Manga?
>>153159117What about bande-dessinées?
>>153164870Yes. Fumetto and historietas as well.
