Good character writing exists in shit like Baki or Bezerk where the characters aren't these frail faggot retarded worms kys like in Chainsaw man, but that they actually have a fucking combat potential and immediately outclass the strongest person from X shonen anime/manga.
Although I don't know if CSM is a manga since nobody let alone school children actually read it.
And there's nothing wrong with calling other people (especially noodle armed retarded worms like Denji) degenerates, it's stating the obvious.
Look at the gif I posted right now, it may not be anime (idfk if spongebob is an anime or not) but usually, anime characters that are written with the related gif in mind tend to have writing that excels and rapes denji's character writing to death every day.
You can't see it because you probably never watched Baki or any other anime or manga like it.
And I never defended shit like highschool student nerds with lame attitude.

then go watch an anime where all of the characters are too weak to hold a can of beans but still have muh good writing according to you
but because every show that has this shit in their narrative we know that the big strong guy is gonna lose, thus negating said tension
>but because every show that has this shit in their narrative we know that the big strong guy is gonna lose, thus negating said tension.
this rule is circumvented in Baki.
also, it isn't the fault of supposed powerscalers that this always happens
>in the end is just good for teenagers engage in autistic discussions of my favorite beats your favorite, and Any one that defend this trash writing as being good need to get their power leveled into the pavement.
powerscaling literally inspires good writing, the only reason why powerscaling anime is bad because they literally have to call in shitty writers who ruin everything and make the anime about muh feels > realz and ignore actual fighting tactics and strength and whatnot.
Powerscalers are good yet they just get ignored by the anime developers due to the fact that it's easier to make shitty norp magnet faggotry than actual fight anime

If you keep complaining every time they make something different, you will get the same slop, harem, loli, isekai, echi shit every single time.

no, they boil down to the anime disrespecting the source material and changing it for no reason other than fueling the career of the kingpoid director who thought he could make it better and get famous. it's just bad, and criticizing it doesn't mean i want another isekai anime, it means i want good sakuga and direction, which mappa has already proven it can do with the idaten anime last year. fuck this adaptation

the only thing that irritates me is the director bc theyre the pretentious snob that thinks animation is underneath cinema or whatever. couldve phrased it that they were interested in re-creating movie strengths in animation but nah. said something along the lines of "animation does not have the strengths of movies so i decided to push the bounds of animation to reach the quality of movies". similar to the last of us live action director, who funnily enough was a writer of the actual game the last of us. said something along the same lines that "video games cannot capture the feeling of live action because its just pixels and can be reloaded". motherfucker, we can rewind the tv show too?

not here to debate if movies or animation or any media commodity is "art" but it irritates me when the director is just a pick me who is frustrated they couldnt get into the media form they like, so they just bash the media theyre stuck in so they can build their resume. unfortunately this seems to work as the backlash always draws attention to them.

I dunno, I keep hearing echos of NGE till this day. JoJo is more influential in Japan it seems, it wasn't that well-known in the West until the anime series dropped. And even when it comes to Japan I'm not particularly sure how deep its influence goes. Apparently it exists but I haven't seen it referenced anywhere other than… No Game No Life, oddly enough.

Uh, Evangelion? Attack on Titan? Death Note? People are acting like it wasn't like that before. And why does it matter if it's shounen? It's just an age group, some seinen shows like JoJo and KLK have similar structure and fight scene density as DBZ or MHA.

 No.20423

It's got a very different atmosphere than the listed examples, although it certainly has points in common with some of them (It would be interesting to do a deeper comparison with evangelion, if only just for fun). if I were to think of one word to describe the manga's tone, I might call it "punk-ish." (and the anime's more subdued tone if you wanna stretch the metaphor you could half-jokingly compare to post-punk). The tone alternates between absurdist irreverence and world-weary cynicism towards institutions and Japanese culture (especially in part 2), the main character is something of an askew look at the stereotypical shonen protagonist - the story is very clear that his personality traits that square with the average dumb-guy shonen protag is a product of economic exploitation and class disparity resulting in him being semi-feral and undersocialized, making him naive and easy to manipulate by people who know how to press his buttons, but impossible to control by anyone else. Much of his character arc has consisted of him growing up and getting wise while at the same time grappling with his own desire for validation from a world that basically threw him in the trash, and for some kind of life that he can strive towards.

The artwork in the manga alternates between deliberately scratchy character artwork that's somewhat more naturalistic than what you'd expect from shonen jump title (imagine a slightly more subdued take on JJK's character art and you're kind of there), and action panels and background art that are basically Otomo-levels of detailed and hyperkinetic. The anime's aesthetic preserves the dour grunginess of the manga, but gives the absurdity a more deadpan, subdued edge, at times almost feeling like a zanier kon or earlier oshii on mood stabilizers. Both approaches work well for the story and characters.

The way it depicts the supernatural is openly surreal and absurd in ways that are alternately played for horror and comedy, with a lot of bizarre and memorable imagery including bisected astronauts laid out in a ritual column, an eternal inception hotel that functions as a death trap, somebody getting manslaughtered by lupin the third's car in the funniest way possible by a demon without a driver's license, the worst date to ever happen to anybody, a literal assault weapon kaiju blowing up half the world, etc

TL;DR its been described by one relatively well-known shitpost as "attack on titan for people who read lenin," and while I don't think that's entirely right, it's not wholly wrong, either.

It isn't. I think that if the anime as a whole is trash then why even bother? It's just like playing a broken game solely for the cutscenes. And what if you're gay or ace or a straight female or have a different taste in women? Now you have just a trashy anime, great. HotD has cool action and memorable characters at least, something that other fanservic-ey anime series often lack. Same with, say, I dunno, Konosuba. You can stare at Aqua's ass all day, be my guest. But her and Kazuma are simply fun characters who are entertaining to watch at least, regardless of your sexual preferences. Otherwise might as well watch porn, it doesn't freaking matter.

We don’t really know anything about the economics of these countries at all. We never really got to see anything. But it seems like sino soviet split is a thing or at least there is no collaboration between China and ussr, while at the same time same is the case between ussr, us and China, they all seem to be working independently from each other and even against each other, which could in theory imply that Gorby and other liberals never came to power in Soviets. It also seems like Germany isn’t split and is working independently from us, which could imply that disappearance of nazies made unification of Germany after the world war a possibility and might even mean that Germany is a neutral and independent actor like it was supposed to be in soviet plans. I wish the author would tell us more about the world and the way countries, especially poor and small ones function while having devils running around and eating people.

I just binge-read all the chapters.
So how do you guys feel about the direction of manga after setting shift into high school? I surprisingly love it, manga because much more weird and interesting afterwards. Like I lost the plot thread with who and why wants stop the chainsaw man, or bring him back, but the turn from edgy shonen to basically a black comedy in tone and general bizardness of everything going on, and the new characters, Asa, Yoru and small Makima in particular I adore. The only old one I really miss is Power.

 No.22486

>>21705
idk, I was binging so that likely effects how I feel about the pacing. But as I said everything felt rushed, once you get rid of the weekly release schedule. Characters just didn’t have proper time to really grow on the audience and as characters. Same case with JJk in my opinion, I believe there is a recent trend of kind of rushing things. I prefer my stories slower, with atmostphere, characters, world etc and you can’t have those without proper pacing and the weekly release schedule doesn’t really let mangaka do that.

Actually from there manga turns into kind of a mess, I would consider it the lowers point of the series.

Question, when Makima and Denji went on a movie date, and she cried during it, do you think that were her genuine emotions, or was she just mirroring Denji to manipulate him further? I am leaning towards latter.

>>22531
at first i thought she was faking it but ive been convinced by my peers that she was genuine. she does desire intimacy, its just ironically the way she forms all relationships through domination and power serves to only alienate herself even further and thus lead to when she actually is alone with Pochita, she has no idea who Pochita is and how to actually relationship

 No.22538

>>22532
Thinking about it from storytelling perspective, its not shown what they are crying over. If it did, that would communicate to reader something about Makimas character, but thats not the focus here, what is is both of them expressing the same emotion. So considering that it was made explicitly clear at the end of part 1 Makima never cared about Denji in the slightest, I am concluding that those were also just fake emotions.

PV for the Reze movie just dropped. Looks like no more Nakayama, which is great. Even if his "cinematic live action style" was valid it doesn't excuse the fact that his directing would still be subpar for a live action movie lmao.

 No.22630

By his own words he tried to make Chainsaw Man look cinematic while having an incredibly narrow sense of what "cinematic" means so he failed to capture the appeal of the manga, despite some scenes here and there being very good. The manga has a lot of expressiveness in characters and the volume covers as well as any colored art Fujimoto put out had very striking and stylized colors, the anime had limited expressions to be more "realistic" and had very mono colors because only action movies are cinema, duh.

>>22617
It's funny to see all the "Of course Chainsaw Man flopped in Japan, the japanese only like pedo pandering shit!" posts about the anime sales since the Manga was (and still is) very popular in Japan. Its almost as if the way they adapted the series just didn't resonate over there!

Very much doubt that they'll just walk back the sort of aesthetic S1 had, after all Mappa clearly believed in it too and you can't just have entries that are totally different visually.

Didn’t Mappa animate attack on titan’s last seasons? The artstyle shift was pretty noticeable in that one. Same thing with jjk s2, which sometimes even had some stylistic shifts during fights. It probably all depends on the team and director, wether or not s2 will be too different from s1.
