Thread 281951892

how is it that /a/ have been so wrong about every single one of these

Contrarians refuse to accept that a popular manga/anime might be good, so they are forced to hate on them.

>>281951892 (OP)
CSM was a straight up flop confirmed by Mappa, why do you think they changed the style?
>b-b-but anime only gaijins say
No one cares, they don’t buy blue rays or ever read part 1. Their opinion doesn’t matter

>nothing but Jump garbage
Please have your 16th birthday already

>>281952078
>CSM was a straight up flop confirmed by Mappa
>bro rushes to the thread to prove op right
many such cases

>>281952103
attack on titan is not jump

>>281951892 (OP)
/a/ is a HxH board, HxH will alwyas be the only accepted Jump manga here because it's kino, nothing more, nothing less, while Berserk moves to irrelevancy in just the span of a week until the next chapter comes out because it's forgettable shonenshit like those series in your pic, HxH is always there at the catalog without releasing anything.

>>281952068
Popular stuff can be good, but the series on OP aren't good. Especially shock slop like Chainsaw Man.

>>281951892 (OP)
I don't know what /a/ thinks but all of these are ass

>discordshizoes are back
trolling is against the rules

let me iterate. just because i like rubbing it in anons faces:
>bleach
the punching bag of /a/ for years and years makes the biggest comeback in anime history with an anime that literally made pierrot restructure their anime production, with record viewership, huge unanimous acclaim, restores the manga, and oh yeah cancelled boruto.
>aot
dune tier of mainstream adoration, considered one of the best works of fiction in decades, meanwhile /a/ is obsessed with character shipping after no one shared your sentiment about how the ending supposedly sucked.
>mha
im going to be honest i don't even bother with mha threads anymore since they are crawling with aging db fans lamenting their youth or something, oh yeah flooded with shipping nonsense i don't follow as well.
>csm
dude it flooped. and it didn't.
>jjk
/a/ swears up and down NO ONE CARES ANYMORE. 10 million views in 24 hours. that must have hurt.
>kimetsu
casually breaks every record. /a/ seethes and copes in silence because MOVIE TICKETS DON'T COUNT.

>>281952179
>/a/ is a HxH board
is that the answer then, /a/ is just oldfags reminiscing about the good old days?

>>281951892 (OP)
It's crazy how different life is when you like all of them

I bet aot hurt /a/ the most

>>281952592
Notice how this anon starts talking about sales and views instead of the quality of the animes

>>281952592
>bleach
The laughing stock of the Big 3, it's so ass that not only did the manga get cancelled but so did the anime and got replaced by Rock Lee and His Jobber Pals that got higher ratings than Bleach
>aot
Only became popular because it came out in the middle of the zombie apocalypse fad. Tomino saw right through Isayama from day 1 when he said AoT was nothing more but "a work some good-for-nothing bullied kid wrote to vent his anger." See how it got already almost completely erased from the NPCs minds even though the movie came out like... a year ago? Two years ago? And they shilled it for so long.
>mha
Only became popular because it came out shortly after Naruto ended and Jump was desperately looking for a Naruto replacement. Porn will be its legacy.
>csm
Lost 60% of its readers and manga sales continue to sink to an all-time low. A cautionary tale of what happens when your series is run by shock value.
>jjk
60% of the fanbase fucked off after the manga ended. The whole series is driven by hype, shock value, “aura farming”, cool one-liners, and fights beefed up by the anime keeping this slop on life-support.
>kimetsu
Recency bias. Single-handedly carried by the anime that's fueled by mass hysteria and FOMO. Will just be another one of those forgotten bestsellers 5 years down the line. When the anime ends, the franchise dies. Won't even have 10% of Naruto, Dragon Ball or Death Note's staying power.

>>281952239
>Especially shock slop like Chainsaw Man.

>>281952946
>60% of the fanbase fucked off after the manga ended.

are you proving me right anon?

>>281953145
>the anime keeping this slop on life-support.
Case in point. Slops like JJK come and goes, nobody will remember any of those 30 years from now. Is this slop gonna reach the worldwide heights of DB or Naruto? Never. Does it even have Death Note's incredible staying power? No.

>>281952068
>popular
it's shounen. it's no accident /a/ mainly focuses on romance shipping which is like 0.1% of the actual stories because they can't connect to shounen themes. shounen is supposed to excite you and make you work out or be active and do things.

>>281951892 (OP)
Just about all of them start very strong and then either meander off into mediocrity or completely shit the bed on the ending.
>A chunk of /a/ just assumed they'd be shit.
>Another chunk of /a/ bought into the hype and expected something great.
>A third chunk of /a/ read the LNs where applicable and knew how bad things would get.
>All of these groups intermingle and /a/nons jump from one group to another repeatedly for no logical reason at all.
In other words, OP is a fag.

>>281953388
>completely shit the bed on the ending.
but that's the point /a/ is always crying wolf
>trust me bro, please trust me stop watching the anime. i know, i read the manga. it fell off. it sucks bro, please stop. i swear bro it sucks. the ending ruins everything. it's ruined. please i beg you. no ones cares anymore. why are you watching.
it don't know if you guys have a humiliation fetish but this is /a/ as long as i can remember.

>>281953241
>nobody will remember any of those 30 years from now
Asking if something will be remembered in 10/20/30 years is peak cowardice. Address the point directly rather than asking stupid time travel questions.
The idea that something is flavor of the month unless it reaches Dragon ball's heights is so fucking retarded.

So JJK, AoT, KnY, MHA and CSM are all just FOTM trash, got it

Bleach is only in the Big 3 out of association with bigger and better series btw

>>281954092
>/a/ is right about it
it's the one anime that /a/ was wrong about the most. talking about mha on /a/ feels like going to /metal/ to post about bad omens or architects. you only get angry arthritis noises in response.

>>281954499
It's shit

what was /a/ wrong about?

>>281954348
Notice how you didn't address my point and just doubled down while deflecting to a semi-related topic of Bleach's placement in the big 3?
You are so boring. If you want to dislike popular shit please post a reason rather than trying to cope that the popular thing isn't actually popular.

>>281951892 (OP)
Pretty sure /a/ likes Kimesu no Yaiba in general, it's a good show with good animation.

>>281956454
>Pretty sure /a/ likes Kimesu no Yaiba in general
/a/ by and large doesn't care about KnY

/a/ it's full of contrarians retards, what did you expect?

>>281956590
/a/ here. I care very much about Kimetsu no Yaiba and will be seeing the movie.

>>281956590
Well as proven by above and by me, you're wrong.

>>281951892 (OP)
KnY one is still the funniest to me. Every time /a/ claimed it would fail, it not only didn't but annihilated every thing in its path 10 fold.

>>281958599
All thanks fo Ufotable doing their thing, what Ufotable does best

Gege should work in his own anime to fix jjk final and and its ending, or at least hire a good writer Gege-approved to fix it.

>>281959503
Yup, being the inciting event so the strengths of the manga would be introduced to everyone (highest per-volume sales in history btw)

>>281952592
Holy fuck, you genuinely sound underage.

>>281959823
It's true, the manga is mid but anime elevated it.

>>281961269
Honestly, KnY is way better as a manga. The anime’s pacing is awful and it goes way overboard with forced tear-jerker stuff, totally killing what made the manga great.
Ufotable is only good at animation and music but ufotable nails the animation and music, but their writing and directing are awful.

Is there anything more pathetic than an anime hipster?

>>281961638
You can't really beat the pivotal scenes with manga pages though in comparison to what anime can provide

>>281957719
>>281958528
Your samefaggotry doesn't work. /a/ as a whole by and large don't care about KnY. That's why it barely gets any threads.

>>281959823
>being the inciting event so the strengths of the manga would be introduced to everyone
The anime and manga are two completely different products. Demon Slayer is as wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle. The story is nothing out of the ordinary, it's just another generic demon hunting story that's a dime among dozen. Even a child child could come up with a premise as simple as that, because it's literally "Kill the Demon King" and that's what the characters do. It's a series with an empty world, paper-thin characters, no plot twists, zero intrigue. It has nothing that makes it stand out compared to the Big 3, DB, Death Note, YYH/HxH, JoJo or Kenshin. Even compared to other manga of its time like JJK, MHA and CSM, Demon Slayer is an utterly unremarkable manga with no special or interesting qualities.

The only reason why people put it next to any of those works is because of how much it sold and not its artistic merits, all in large part thanks to Ufotable's god-tier presentation. There's a reason why the trash manga underperformed for 3 full years until Ufotable saved its ass. The manga is littered with bad art, horrible paneling and amateurish composition that makes the manga hard to follow and that's without going into details about the poor writing and how things conveniently happen in a specific moment in a specific time so the author can get the desired outcome. It would be nothing without Yuichi Terao's signature compositing and Nozomu Abe's sakuga mesmerizing normalfags who just got into anime during COVID lockdowns. Anytime people complain about the show, it's the author's bad writing and boring characters.

So when people say, "I like Demon Slayer", they don't mean they like Demon Slayer by Koyoharu Gotouge who really had not much to do with its success. They mean they like Demon Slayer by Ufotable, who turned an otherwise unremarkable manga into a completely different product.
>highest per-volume sales in history btw
Goes to Dragon Ball.

>>281964602
So is your prediction still 270/280M WW

You have to be a special brand of retard to come to /a/ and say that shounenshit is good because it is popular.
Don't you realize that you are a massive faggot?

>>281951892 (OP)
the overhyped zoomer anime?
the only one I watched as a kid is bleach, aren't they done with it yet?

>>281964652
>bait-and-switch
Not gonna work. And Infinity Flashback is currently at $294M (FX fixes!).

Btw, Dragon Ball dwarfs Demon Slayer in actual historical sales. Shueisha lowballs DB because it makes everyone look pathetic that people still prefer a manga that ended 30 years ago over whatever new slop Jump churns out like the slop machine it is. DB is eternal, Demon Slayer is a moment. And as history proves time and again, slops comes and goes. It's just a part of life.

He also won two Oscars. Something Kimetsu never will. Didn't even get nominated when Aniplex tried to submit Migen Train. They want Hollywood so bad when Hollywood doesn't even want them.

>>281966789
If you have to bring titans like Dragon Ball and Studio Ghibli to even measure up to a baby like Kimetsu then it won.
>He also won two Oscars
No one gives a shit. Sorry not sorry <3

>>281964728
Is your prediction 270/280M or not

>>281951892 (OP)
What were they wrong about in regards to MHA and AOT?

>>281967400
>No one gives a shit
You can cope as much as you want, Aniplex trying to sneak their slop into the Oscars says another story lmao. Kimetsu CLEARLY cares about the Oscars and they DESPERATELY want validation from Hollywood when Hollywood don't care about them.

Watching The Boy and the Heron win Best Animated Feature in 2024 without a single trailer, no promo, and zero pandering, while Kimetsu throws every dollar and CGI explosion it can at voters and still gets snubbed? Man oh man, that's gotta sting. Can't wait to see them get snubbed the second time, kek.
>>281967402
FX fixes, learn it~

That $300M figure nerds celebrated early actually went down to $294M on The Numbers lol.

>>281951892 (OP)
Reminder, One Piece defeated everyone of these.

>>281967665
So is your new line that it isn't going to hit 300M worldwide? Noted

>>281967748
Didn't say that. I said exchange rates are fluctuating and the longer Japan runs this movie (which they will, they're THAT shameless lol) the more it's susceptible to FX fixes and its final numbers might look lower since Japan are carrying it.

Still no Oscar nomination by the way. Won't even make it to the shortlist. Man oh man, Miyazaki must have really hit a nerve on Kimetsu that it could win with no marketing and no shilling from Sony Music. Mamoru Hosoda might cuck it too kek.

>>281967809
>Didn't say that.
Then what's your prediction
Why are you acting like such a timid little bitch now when you spent the better part of a year acting like it wouldn't even hit 200M worldwide

>>281967864
My predictions are deez nutz

>>281951892 (OP)
All of these were bad though

>>281956590
/a/ was literally the first place in the West that started fan translating the manga.

Oh, look. The crybaby tried to report to the mods, lol. Also, thanks for admitting that Kimetsu will never be on Dragon Ball or Ghibli's level. Now, I just need Hosoda to cuck it too from the Oscars ti sweeten the deal. I'll repost everything again just for shits giggles.

This is the most /a/ reply ever. You proved OP right again

>>281968796
>gets memoryholed when the anime ends, and only gets brought up again when the anime is on air
Case in point. Kimetsu will never have Death Note's god-tier staying power or be anywhere near DB, Naruto or One Piece's legacy and influence. Anime made it famous and when the anime dies, the series will die

>>281968887
Naruto is dead and laughed at by anyone who isn't gay, retarded and black. When JJK is fully animated it will be more watched than Bleach or Naruto. It's way shorter, better animated and not as cringe. Demon Slayer will also be bigger than Bleach or Naruto. Only OP and DB are bigger.

>>281969046
>Naruto is dead
Most watched anime on Netflix. Anime ended 10 years ago, so did the manga and it still outperforms everything that's out today. JJK isn't even on the list and Kimetsu got beat by Sakamoto Days

They're bigger than Bleach but who cares about Bleach lol

>>281969205
>Netflix

Yeah, that doesn't matter. They even put more money into One Piece themselves because they know Naruto is cringe.

>>281969205

Make a livestream of your suicide when Kimetsu beats Spirited Away (again), smelly nigger.

I want ochako to sleep with kacchan while I watch.

>>281968471
Does it ever make you feel hollow inside? You spent an entire year making posts daily about how this movie was going to be a disappointment (because even you weren't delusional enough to think it would fail) and now it's pissing over you to the point where you won't even give predictions anymore

>>281969327
Naruto is still more popular than One Piece though, see picrel from 2024. Even with all that sakuga pumped into it, people still choose Naruto
>>281969473
Make a livestream of your suicide when Kimetsu gets cucked from the Oscars (again)

Naruto is the king of anime and has been that way for 20 years. How does it feel that people still choose an anime that ended 10 years ago over your fave?

>>281969569
>blah blah blah
Box office still went down from $300M to $294M, courtesy of FX fixes. And the yen keeps getting worse so this keeps getting better and better.

>>281969802
FX rates still kicked Kimetsu in the nuts (just like I predicted) and the $300M that nerds celebrated went down by almost $10M. Sucks to suck at math, doesn't it, fag? Lel

>Most popular kids TV show, beating Peppa Pig only other anime next to Naruto is Dragon Ball
The KING of ANIME. If you like JJK, Kimetsu, MHA, Black Clover, Kagurabachi, whatever slop Jump pumps out, you also indirectly like Naruto

Gee, maybe you should go to a website that shares your super cool opinions then? You know, like Reddit or Youtube or whatever. You can leave us icky creepy weirdos to our own devices, though we will dearly miss you of course!

trvth bomb:
a lot of anons are just annoying negative pests. it's like pick me behavior but for weebs. do you ever see anyone flooding /lit/ with spoiler type rage bait or anyone shitposting about bergman's persona? no. it's a weeb thing. anime is very easy to consume and it attracts retards.

>>281977815
>do you ever see anyone flooding /lit/ with spoiler type rage bait or anyone shitposting about bergman's persona?
Not those specific examples but yes, absolutely. There was a period of several months about 2 years ago where /lit/ became borderline unusable when it came to anything that was remotely associated with Christianity, which is a pretty big chunk of literature as you can imagine, due to a handful of shitposters who just absolutely had to inform all the "christcucks" of their hostile opinions.
