You know how whenever there's anime primarily aimed at male audiences with romance as a core element, there's always some quotient of dudes responding to it like this? I've long held that these sure are some joyless ghouls, but after some deliberation, I think it's even worse… Most of you are hopefully aware of how much denigration romantic content aimed at women has seen through the ages and even today. Because if women like something but men don't, clearly that something must be of "low value". The whole thing is obviously deeply rooted in misogyny.

Even today, romance in fiction is a very "girl-coded" interest. Thus if a man happens to like romance, eventually they're going to run into toxic masculinity denigrating them for it. How they'll "get no bitches and stack no paper". A mere interest in romance makes them "weak". And it's incredibly obvious how surface level these kind of judgments are. These dudes see "romance" and just refuse to look any further due to toxic masculinity and misogyny.

Any romance that isn't shonen is better on average I think, with a few exceptions (usually more comedic like Shikimori or action/romance like Dandadan or something). Even hentai is better. And not like yaoi is not rapey compared to shoujo/josei/seinen either.

Idk. Most romance kinda sucks because they try to hard to make it comical.

I actually prefer shonen romance though the more sincere kind.

The average guy watching anime has never had sex let alone experienced romance. It's like asking why women aren't into stories about some guy that's a lonely nobody that aimlessly drifts through life.

There's probably something significant about this being one of his few "unnecessary" emotions I'm not grasping—if I wanted to be a real /lit/fag about it I could talk about Guts being able to literally take the art out of him turning him into a(no longer metaphorical) fairy but I think that thought in and of itself is the discussion

Have you ever read Kutsuzure Sensen?
I really liked this manga and I think this would be a nice place to talk about it.

I also started reading Taiho to Stamp, so I guess we can talk about Rasenjin works on general on this thread… do you like his mangas?

Kutsuzure Sensen is his only fully translated work, sadly. But a scanlation group recently picked up Taiho to Stamps.

Right now I'm reading the first chapter and it is not as funny as Kutsuzure Sensen but still cool, it seems Rasenjin wants to flesh out characters on the longrun.

Also he is working right now on a manga setted on Stalingrad but as I said before his only translated works are Stamps and Kutsuzure. Hope he gets popular and more groups pick up his work, the man makes really good stuff.

What the fuck makes Pitou a specialist? Anonymous 07-02-25 13:54:10 No.26879[Reply]

Most of their abilities are just manipulation or conjuration with some transmutation in between sometimes. What in the shit makes Pitou a specialist?
Neon could predict the future, Chrollo can steal abilities. What can Pitou do that you can't do with the normal 5 nen types?

I like that you called it "autism". I'm actually autistic and spend so much fucking time thinking about nen and creating fanfic hatsus it might as well be my main hobby at this point.

Anonymous 06-03-25 10:38:16 No.27178

It's not your hatsu that makes your type. Pitou could have her hatsu be whatever the fuck she wants since her Nen pool is so large the efficiency loss ends up not mattering. So her hatsu really doesn't need to conform to her type. Tailoring your hatsu to your type is something only tryhards do (i.e. Hunters trained in Shingen-ryu such as Killua, Kurapika etc).

Another example of a Nen user with a hatsu and type mismatch is Biske, who could afford to have her hatsu be a mix of conjuration and manipulation despite being a transmuter. You could count Kastro's hatsu as well in this, sorta, as it's a complex Nen application that relies on multiple types.

>>27172
I'm not trying to disparage the appeal that the sheer numbers game has for some people, but with HxH in particular it really distracts from the rest of the manga. There are many things about Nen that are good and contribute to the story, but something like "Biscuit's hatsu is a mix of conjuration and manipulation despite being a transmuter" doesn't. This kind of thing should stay in supplementary materials.

Let's be honest. The hatsu sytem is useful for Togashi to write new abilities, but the reader can perfectly ignore it. Most abilities are extremely different and you could just consider them like stands from JJBA

You may be shocked to learn this but when you design a character who is going to be in an animated movie, this includes the character's appearance. A protagonist character who is going to be drawn like tens of thousands of times in a movie is going to have attention paid to all the details of their design, and ideally any detail should be relevant to the story somehow. What he's talking about here is a pretty common design trope, that larger bust size can be used to imply a character is motherly and caregiving. I'm a Miyazaki hater but thinking this is a sexual comment is silly. It's just something that's not talked about that often because of repression of anything that's considered sexual.

It's greatest sin so far is that it's initial setup is a bit mid, but once the story gets going, even just at chapter six, it picks up like a goddamn locomotive, and a good one at that.

His artstyle is so unique and amazing. I'm reading Joshi Kouhei right now. It's about some Evangelion-ish future where men pilot these giant robots from another dimension that look like Japanese schoolgirls but eventually they get psychotic and think they're actually schoolgirls.

You were about a year early to me getting into his works with that thread. I've started with Wanitokagegisu and quickly devoured most of the things he made after that. I think I couldn't find a full translation for Himeanole and Green Hill, and the j-drama adaptation of Wanitokagegisu. I'm slowly working on getting my dekiru up so I might read those in the future though. He's great at portraying comedy and hopelessness in the face of common tragedy.
