I find it sad that I've been on this site for 3 years, and only about 3 or so people have been able to spell my name right.
I think you're a great guy and I respect you. But I have read a **** load of both Shoenn (Didn't spell it right, don't care) and Shojo manga and I've seen a **** load of Shoenn and Shojo anme. They are always about that. I personally think that Shojo can go die in a fire, so I prefer shoenn series. But whatever, you still get what I'm saying. And yes, I'm sorry to say this but most of it is crap, as I've said, I've watched and read a **** load of it and here are the only ones I've ever liked.
Anime:
One Piece
Dragonball Z
Black Cat
Devil May Cry
Case Closed
Manga:
Yu-Gi-Oh
Rave Master
Trigun
Death Note
Shaman King
Sorry, but liking only ten out of.... I have no idea how much I've seen, I lost count.
EDIT: Oh yeah, and Fullmetal Alchemist for anime.
Sturgeon's law states that 90% of everything is crap. Sadly, this applies to Anime as well.
Although I like a lot more Anime and Manga than that, and certainly more than how many western shows I like, so Different strokes then, I guess.
Also, sorry for semi-necropost, but I just had to do this with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
- If someone transforms mid-fight, that means they're at ten times more powerful then they were before. Regardless of how stupid they may look.
- A character isn't truly pissed until something has happened to their hair.
Haven't seen that yet.
- The fight isn't over until the bad guy's castle collapses.
nope, still standing even when
- Crazier the hair, the more important the character is to the plot.
How does he even keep his hair that straight?
I'm always expecting his hair to shoot something.
- If the hero is loosing a fight to a bad guy, he will pull some kind of power out of his *** at the last moment.
too much to count
- If a character looks like a woman, acts like a woman, sounds like a woman, but isn't wearing skimpy clothes, then it's a guy.
Minus the skimpy clothes part.
Joseph Joestar: The only dirty old man who actually gets lucky.
- Hair comes in every shade of the rainbow.
Kinda hard to tell, since JJBA doesn't have a "True" color palette.(Their palettes, including their hair color, change pretty much every cover.)
- Supernatural teenage girls with an unreasonable bust are attracted to nerds.
Believe me when I say it's not nearly as romantic as it looks.
- There's always room for fan service.
(And no, he's not actually his father)
I swear to god, I love this manga. Really.
- Bad guys will stand around to wait for you while you charge your attack.
none of that here. Bad guys in JJBA are a lot more conservative.
- The fate of the world is always left in the hands of a seemingly normal Japanese High School boy.
As you can tell, Jotaro is pretty far from being anywhere near normal.
Josuke is more like a typical high-school delinquent though.
- The bigger the sword, the more powerful it is.
not many big swords here.
- The more bad guys there are, the more likely they are to miss.
Battles in JJBA rarely exceed more than 3 people at a time.
- Heroes cannot be killed or defeated by henchmen.
Depends on what you mean by "Henchmen." Plenty of characters are killed by henchmen, but they're mostly higher-up henchmen.
- The final battle will always drag out for ten or more episodes.
****
- Leave the world-saving to teenagers, angst gets to job done faster than without.
Kind of applies to part 5 I guess.
- At least one main character will either die, leave the group, or betray the heroes.
Once again, too much to count.
lol, epic image post.
