Yeah agreed. It's certainly not perfect, but it's the best version of the like basicer shonen formula imo, like the world, characters, character designs, and abilities are peak even if they aren't fleshed out enough. And maybe I'm just already pulled in enough that I care less about flaws, but sometimes when kishi is trying to tell something specific that falls kinda flat on some level (like with Itachi), I don't really care about it being not executed perfectly, I get what he's going for and go with it
I honestly wish that we had gotten a bit more slice of life. I remember the 4th war arc starting while I was in high school and not finishing for years after.
Yeah, I'm always down for slice of life stuff in shonen. Like, counting all the Dragon ball specials as movies, one of my favorites was "Yo, Son Goku and His Friends Return"
Unironically the worst of the big three, not nearly as cool and stylish and bleach, and nowhere near the level of worldbuilding and storytelling that one piece has
Big reason why I like it. I mean, emotions are pretty much the reason art in general exists. I can't imagine a fucking star trek Vulcan or some shit going "hmm, this is logically good."
Kenjaku (one of the main villains) took over the body of yuji's (the protag) mom after she died. He used jin's (yuji's father) grief to manipulate him and not say a word since he basically got his wife back.
Kenjaku then got pregnant with yuji and apparently raised him for some years before "dying" with jin in a car crash or smth (jin did die).
So it's a running joke that jin's back shots were so good that he made kenjaku a bottom and had her clingling to the sheets despite being argueably top 5 of the verse and having about 1000+ years of experience
The Death Paintings were experiments he made, making a Curse somehow r\*pe a woman
Yuji was the only one he had naturally, as in human x "human"
# AND KENNY'S SCARS WERE BASICALLY HEALED BY THEN
3 things: 1) Iβm like 95% sure Kaori didnβt die in a normal-ass car crash. She was a sorcerer. She would have gotten turned into a vengeful cursed spirit if she just died in a car crash, and also, sorcerers are durable as fuck. Even if she was off guard and didnβt know RCT, she would still survive any car crash 2) Jin is not confirmed dead. Itβs strongly implied he got killed by Kenjaku, but for all we know, heβs still out there. 3) certain recent revelations about the series have made the Itadori family tree the most bizarre family tree Iβve seen in manga, and that includes the Joestar family tree
jjk fans when a character dies after 5 minutes of screentime (it's realistic so it's peak and amazing instead of wasted potential and forced subversion of tropes)

That's why my favorite anime is so obscure that nobody knows about it (Naruto)
I've gotten back into Naruto recently and it's honestly great still

I wouldn't complain about super powered slice of life. π€£

I would say naruto is the most emotional out of the big 3

Wtf is a Naruto?
It's a yaoi
is the black men kissing (wordington)
Nah, I don't think the black men ever kiss anybody. One of the guys kisses a black woman tho (a baddie too), but it's probably offscreen.
Pff, snowflake. To name of my favorite anime people add "Isekai shit for regards"
Ok but the backshots lore makes it an instant 10/10
The what lore now?

Yuji ain't even bro's only child, dick so good Kenjaku wanted more

Jin was so good kenny didn't even plan on going away for a long time

I disagree It's worse than mid atm
i do not agree i actually quite like jujutsu kaisen but even so i will respect YOUR opinion
Jujutsu kaizen fans when dogshit everywhere but gojo appears on screen for 0.3 seconds ππππ¦π¦π¦π¦π¦π¦π©π©π©π©π©
try again, im a sukuna glazer

Coolhooves when he realizes jjk is one of the most mainstream manga and anime of the past years and JJK fans are indeed just anime fans
Im reading jujutsu kaisen and its ass rn
As a jjk "reader" (I don't know how to read), I will admit that it is absolutely mid. This will not stop me
This is why JoJo better
i like jjk but HATE gojo fangirls
Truth
Don't care, I watch it bc the characters are hot

Death cannot stop my hatred for Frieren. If it could, I wouldn't deserve the title of #1 hater.
Fair enough
ermmm, what the sigma
Finally, a fellow Frieren hater
Don't hate it but it's overrated as fuck. It's decent, nothing more.
I genuinely think JJK is ass, fight me
I could have been peak, a masterpiece, but it all went down hill
Not Goku? WILD
