Which popular shounen anime/manga has generally the best character design out of them and why it is Soul Eater?
>>
>>7880938
dragon ball by far
>>
>>7880945
Everyone looks the same in dragon ball
>>
soul eater came out by the time 90% of this board was in the crib. let it go, uncle.
>>
>>7880946
sayan genes are strong. Z does suffer more being that it starts with the sayan saga and all. but across villains and heroes, there's so many stand out designs.
>>
>>7880938
Soul eater manga art was disgusting. Anime made it popular.

Bakemonogatari easily. Soul Eater looks way too goofy.
>>
>>7880981
this. character design diversity is endless from human to amanto. it can depict handsome, fit, cute, gorgeous, ugly, fat, young, old, kids, and even annoying characters. and dozen of homage to other anime even they're censored.
>>
Shaman King for me.

Holy shit taste, JJK mogs the slop posted in this thread by MILES

looks forgettable

>>7880938
Soul Eater is pretty up there. I also liked the characters from Law of Ueki.
>>
>>7880938
oh no the soul eater schizo is still on it. Show your art now. Holy shit

it is a crime how all girls cut their hair after banging araragi

I don't watch or read gachiakuta but every design I've seen from it has looked good
>>
>>7880938
Gachiakuta and nothing else is even close
>>
Most tranime looks the same which is a shame because some of the artists are quite talented. Sadly to survive they need to draw what the market wants, which in this case is retarded horny losers and children
>>
>>7881170
it's okay-ish but it reminds me of those niga graffiti lowbrow comics that I read back in 2003 as I have love hate relationship with that art.
>>
>>7881170
The artstyle makes them way more memorable than the actual desgins.
>>
>>7881171
Let me guess you started watching anime during covid and have barely seen or read anything else in your life.

>>7881171
Name some reasons why they are actually good.

Man, I'm so glad modern titles dropped childish aesthetics and gaurish overdesigned deformed designs like those to focus on making more believable but still stylish and sleek art directions.
Unc slop stays losing I guess

your characters are indistinguishable from one another. Look at the jujutard's post, panel 1 and 2 are literally identical.

>Dark, serious and grounded story
>Expects the characters to dress and look like clowns instead of believable and realistic people
Nice bait
>>
>>7881798
>Dark, serious and grounded story
it's powerfantasyslop with a mid ending, no need to put it in a pedestal
>>
>>7881782
The shonentard don't understand individual character design kek
>>
>>7881799
>it's powerfantasyslop with a mid ending
But enough about Soul Eater
>>
>>7881637
that's the worst anime tho. the only redeeming qualities are the spastic action scenes that tries to mimic hollywood action movies. the rest? the design are very basic most likely for animations but even Shin Chan are more memorable due to the silhouettes, no color palettes and plenty of others

I've always had more luck finding designs/artstyles I like in vidya. I guess working on a tight schedule really inhibits what you can draw

This show has the most satisfying second opening and NONE of you should look it up without watching this show, just go see OP 1 and then watch Ranking of Kings. You have to earn that audial kino.

ok, I think this anime makes me gay, why the men design are so satisfying despite being mostly curves ?
>>
>>7881921
I'll say it right now, nearly every character in Hokuto No Ken look very similar to each other just as much as the JJK or Kagurabachi ones do. It's mostly carried by the art and being a classic series .
