It had no marketing. It had no budget. It looked cheap. The netcode was made last minute. There's a trillion other fighting games on the market at the moment. Pitou as DLC is stupid. It shouldn't have been a full price game. The tag in stuff looked degenerate as fuck.

I'm shocked.. shocked I say. Well, not really. Also, it's another license anime fighter in a sea filled with license anime fighting games and it's clear they didn't put much money into it.

I can never take this IP seriously when the author continually gets away with publishing his fridge drawing tier art once or twice a year.

>>716026495 (OP)
>Have never been better
I would say it's slightly better gameplay wise, but then it loses it's luster after a few plays. Anime games focus entirely too much on production values much like AAA games do and thus keep losing the understanding you do need some good gameplay to start out otherwise it's just throwaway or disposable. Which sadly has happened to numerous games in this person's post. Take for example, I like Bleach Rebirth Of Souls, but hardly anyone is online on it after week 2, Nen X Impact has good gameplay but recycles too many Anime Screenshots for most people's liking and also has a small but dedicated audience overall who is willing to go out and buy the games. I do not know if the Anime Games industry will be better or it will all go into Gacha territory. But even then those seem to fail as they do not follow the JP Gacha formula of introducing tons of new characters.

Better question is "why the fuck did you make this?" because the intersection of HxH fans and people who care about fighting games is not big enough to support yet another fucking short-lived, low quality, poorly balanced anime fighting game

>Sparkling Zero
>Rebirth of Souls

Weren't those games shat on immensely for missing content and flat out not working?

>>716027992
Not only that, but how many fans would want to buy a game or play a fighting game? They are not a consistent base much like Dragon Ball, Naruto or even Bleach and One Piece. Do not get me wrong, Gameplay is good but the rest is kind of iffy.

Here's a hard fact: japs can't make good video games.

>>716028040
Rebirth Of Souls had issues with lower end Laptops and Desktops not working until it was fixed a month later. Sparking Zero's main issue is that it had too many players who would abuse spam moves and even in tournaments in Mexico, Europe, and America there would be players cheating with certain Items in the game. It was not until then that Bandai Namco basically pushed out patches for Sparking Zero. But by that point most of the playerbase basically left or people just became bored and dropped it.

>>716026495 (OP)
who even cares about hiatus x haitus anymore? I enjoyed it once upon a time and moved on because I'll never see it finished.

>>716026495 (OP)
Hunter x Hunter has truly ass character design. The only people who are going to be interested in a fighting game with these ugly fuckers are people who are already big fans for the series despite that thanks to the writing.

>>716028063
I would say Anime Game companies can not make good games. Japanese Video Game companies that make low effort works are very extremely rare. Unless you are willing to tell me Koei Tecmo, Fromsoft, TAMSOFT, Atlus and a lot of others are awful somehow and expose yourself as a casual.

It's so funny that every stretch of chapters people still delude themselves into thinking that there might be more than 10 chapters this time, or the next break won't be long. They always point out that Togashi said he's already almost finished with the next set, even though he's said that every time for the last decade.

>>716026495 (OP)
thanks OP just buyeyed it ;)

>>716028040
Yeah, Nen Impact is shit but the guy who wrote that article is talking out of his ass. Sparking Zero and Rebirth of Souls were slammed pretty heavily after the initial week 1 hype.
The Demon Slayer kind of just came and went, but it at least had nice visuals and a fully fleshed out story mode thanks to CC2.

>>716027664
I still don’t get why Togashi just doesn’t write a book at this point. Current HxH is already 70% words. Pride?

>>716027664
I remember back in 09 in HS when my classmate told me that the author of this manga died of cancer or something.

>>716026495 (OP)
As someone who grew up with the 1999 anime, loved the 2011 adaptation, and caught up to the manga until a few years ago (because Togashi has truly lost his touch), I’m not surprised at all.
I saw this game on the playstation store. Before I even saw the trailer, I was rolling my eyes over it being a fighting game. When I saw the trailer, it gave me a deja vu of the awful JJK fighting game, and I knew it would be a flop.

I guess it’s too much to ask for a title like the Japan-exclusive Future Boy Conan PS2 game. There’s literally nothing I wish for more than a faithful videogame adaptation of an anime in the same spirit as pic-related.

The netcode is too ass for FGC people to give it a shot. There were people who were willing given Eighting made MvC3. But it's dead on arrival now.

>>716028863
It's sad how the franchise in general thought Daima was going to be the next big thing but it ended up being a wet fart.
Sparking Zero needs to start rushing out DLC for whatever BT3 characters are missing. If Shallot's inclusion means anything, maybe they could grab shit like Xeno Vegito and Cumber too. Should revive the hype with some balancing patches too.

It aired on cartoon network from 2016-2019. Maybe not as popular since it was competing with streaming by that time. It's also less than 150 episodes, so it wasn't airing for a decade straight like those other animes you mentioned.

I watched the 2011 anime and enjoyed it. The first arc is 26 episodes. If you care to watch it, start there any continue if you are enjoying it. Despite the protagonists being children, it can get fairly dark at times..

This is a pretty big point. Tag games usually have pretty big rosters. I'm a fighting game fan, and a HxH fan, and I didn't even know the game was out, and if I'm ever going to buy it. I should be the precise target demographic, and I'm probably gonna skip this game, that's fucking awful.
I remember they teased like 4-6 characters before? It doesn't need to be MvC2 levels, but Jesus, give us some more. It's full price and already has DLC too? I see there's 16 at launch rn? SF6 had 18 at launch, and people even complained about that being small, in a game where you don't play multiple characters at a time. You're seeing twice the characters each match, so it feels like the roster's smaller than it really is.

>>716030856
Literally made for tongue bathing.

>>716031118
And it's not as if their kit is unique and the game is mechanically deep. It's a garbage game sold at a premium price. The MMPR game also started out as dogshit but they not only gave it extended support but the game became good along the way. Is it a great game? No, but it had a fair price tag and support, which is rare for fighting games

>>716026685
The fact that it looked like a cheap crappy game with only the barebines of the cast is lame as fuck.

This game honestly didn’t deserve to die. It had some balancing issues on launch and they did take a while to keep supporting it with patches and the DLC characters, but by then people lost interest.

The only cerebral arc is the current one. Before that it was a typical battle shonen. It just liked to cuck the audience out of proper endings to arcs by cancelling the last fight of every arc. Doesn't make it smart though, just makes it popular with people who like to get cucked

Issue were fg ecelebs like sajam straight up lying about the game and non existent support until like a year later. This game for some reason got targeted by big fg ecelebs who were posting clips without context like Inquisitors(literally bottom 3 character before first patch btw) wheel setups that had multiple easy counters for example lmao. I dont even like dnf duel but it was weird as fuck how cherrypicked anything was about that game.

Something so complex like nen should not be defined with a fighting game genre, nen is fully oriented in intellectualism to be catalogued in the same branch of game than dragon ball, a seinen manga/anime should be inside a genre with much mature audience

KEK. I love HxH but god, what the fuck is wrong with their fans? I mean, look at the post above this.

For a supposed dead genre, there are more people by volume who play RTS than fighting games.

>>716041619
I think so, you need some idea of it to present to your editor in order to greenlight the publishing. Because if the story doesn't take off you'll have to wrap it up early. It's not a good look for the magazine / editor to have a story that doesn't even have an ending.

>>716041619
It's manga for a reason. They're made to be long and milk-able. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just how they work. Some authors do know how they want to end their works, but they're rare.

There was no intention of making a good game.

Sadly, hxh sucks now (like actually is a bad manga), the anime was never renewed to follow the manga and was in any case not great, and it's been decades since hxh was truly in its prime.

Its over. A hxh vidya should be an rpg in any case. Only way you really can showcase the fighting. Turn based rpg combat with lots of variability and choice in how to build a character

Lucky bastard.

>>716044268
Fighting games are fairly niche, and games of the genre that are beloved enough to gain a playerbase tend to have a decent amount of longevity, so you really don't need many releases to saturate the market. Anybody who wants to play a fighting game is already playing street fighter or guilty gear or whatever the latest dragon ball z fighting game is etc, depending on their preferred style, and likely has no reason to bother with niche releases.

This is a game you check out when its 90% off.

>>716026495 (OP)
the netcode for this game is broken. its worse than SFV or any fighter from the last decade.
bad netcode in a fighting game is a death sentence.

This looks too balanced. What if we crank up the BS to 11.

>>716044519
And that is why some companies go for fighting games based on established IPs. A new Naruto, One Piece or Bleach game with good visuals would do 100x better than this HxH game.
It's not a market saturation problem which made HxH, it's the developer. Eighting is one of, if not, the worst FG developer at the moment. They always put out games that are shit to play with abhorrent system mechanics that ruins the game.

No, DNF is dogshit and you are part of the problem if you are defending it.

It really should not come as any kind of surprise that this came out with little fanfare and little success. HxH has never had huge success in the vidya market whenever they decided that they should make a game for it, and also they rarely do that because other shounen series are a whole lot more popular and most importantly, profitable. Comparing stuff like Naruto vidyagame and HxH vidyagame is especially funny in that regard.

There was a time where this was the standard for anime IP games. Now seems like all they make are arena fighters, and the occasional 2D fighter

>>716049843
There is. The entire setting is based around inventive locations, defeating huge numbers of mooks, and ultimately reaching the boss. Literally the entire series is functionally a musou or character action game waiting to happen and they picked the worst direction possible. Kamen Rider Battride War or Sengoku Basara are the perfect examples of how to make a KLK game with Battride War very like being in that same budget range.

>>716026495 (OP)

Maybe if they fixed the search results it would get some sales. Just try searching for hunterxhunter or hunter x hunter, nothing comes up.

HxH is a special case. He outright owns the copyright to it unlike all other SJ series. Jump can't pressure him because he can just take it elsewhere, and it still sells in the millions so he has no financial incentive to work. Also his spine allegedly disintegrated.

No, why do you think Dragonball Super went on infinite hiatus (bar like 1-2 chapters that released after like a year...) after Toriyama died? Same with Berserk.

I think only Araki/Jojo has a "set ending" for it's "volume"/act/part/whatever you want to call each saga. And even THAT has a drawn out chapter list, because of the monthly/weekly structure Japanese artists have to hit.

It basically looks like someone modded MvC with fannade models of Hunter x Hunter characters. If you're not a preexisting fan, the characters look too generic to pull you in. If you are a preexisting fan, why would you pay for what looks like a fan mod? It basically has nothing going for it. The game doesn't even utilize or refrence the power system the series is famous for, it's full of generic shit. It could've had 50 characters if they were just going to make shit up.

>>716026495 (OP)
It's just obvious shovelware

>>716041619
Most of these decades long mangas are just not good. It takes a miracle to write one good book, these japs think they can keep writing a good story for 40 years.
They are just products, to milk the last dime from established fanboys.

>>716041619
This is something that's most prominent with shounen manga makers. Even if they have a plan for how the story will end, if the manga is way too popular then the publisher will push for it to continue. It happened with DBZ for instance. Not that I am implying other genre mangaka don't have the same sort of "fake it 'til you make it" going on.

>>716049783

they probably assuming that
>wow this manga has a lot of fighting
>they will sure love it being a fighter

>>716052040
Sure but it also is in THE normalfag genre since it's a battle shounen. Togashi had a bit more ambition that can be gleamed here and there on the series though, but he really has not had the best showing to really express it. An when he has had some bits that push HxH forth as something bigger than the average shounen series, it's then straight back to hiatus and then the other modern shounen series just keep on going forward with their own pace and leave HxH in the dust, waiting for the next batch of a dozen chapters where something that might be cool might happen. I like HxH but jesus fucking christ it has been a really harrowing journey to get as far as the manga has made it so far.

You could say this about any battle shounen, but nobody's putting in all that effort to make GURPS The Video Game only to have to shell out royalties on top of it.

>>716052385
For Togashi, as long as the manga still sells well he doesn't care. HxH has been around long enough that its doing its own thing from other shonen

>>716053886
Oh definitely, but it's also quite tiring to see other HxH fans put the series on some absurd pedestal and claim it's the best fucking shit around, when at best it's an okay shounen series with a lot of problems that keep dragging it down.

>>716054248
I disagree. Its a very good shonen that some overblow its qualities.

>>716053776
Yeah, I mean realistically any actual HXH game would just be dbz kakarot, with some light bby puzzles

>>716041619
toriyama basically wrote every arc to possibly be the last one and just corrected course depending on if he found it boring or the editor had a good suggestion.

IIRC the first tournament arc was an editor suggestion and it worked so well that it became a mainstay. He also wrapped the school part of buu's arc because he got bored with it.

>>716026495 (OP)
I was watching some gameplay of it and i was genuinely shocked its story is just still from the anime. How fucking lazy can you be

>>716026495 (OP)
Isn't this a fighting game? Having anything more tha 100 concurrent at launch is good numbers for a fighting game. More than 1000 and it's fighting game of the year, more than 10,000 and it's record breaking.

>>716032407
>Who the hell wants to play as a kid in a tank top and shorts and a guy in a tank top and skirt?
As I get older, I have massively started to prefer simpler designs for characters. Overdesigned outfits make characters look like they belong in a gacha these days. A character should be recognizable even if he's just wearing a tank top.

Why are Jap suits obsessed with fighting games for their animes?
Imagine a turn-based HxH game with an explorable overworld like E33 that allows you to explore the uncharted regions or whatever the fuck they are called. It would easily be a hit. But instead we just get shitty anime fighting game number 10453. I don't get it. Is it cause the Goku fighting game sold well? That's only because spics are obsessed with Goku.

>>716052713
Strangely enough they didn't load this one with too much dlc. There's a deluxe edition that has 2 outfits and a few worthless beginner items, but that's it. The base game has tons of outfits already. I don't know which branch within konami made this but they put a lot of soul into it.

>>716026565

ok since this thread is on its way to page 11 aka zero , I might just ask, what are some good dynasty warrior games for switch / switch 2?

Hyrule warrior getting performance boost from Switch 2 backwards compatibility is very nice

>>716050854
That scene has no meaning if you don’t have the context besides bad guy fights good guy.

>>716062634
The problem with the "unexplored regions" bit is that it feels like Togashi wrote them up as this big mystery that then led people to get really fucking hyped about it because the series leads you to think that those unexplored areas are some sort of endgoal. In reality though it has been anything except getting to the Dark Continent that Togashi has put their focus on, the current endless boat ride arc being a good example of how suddenly they wrote in a shitload of new characters instead of focusing on the already rather sizable roster of characters that shounen manga usually end up with. It feels like Togashi wrote themselves into a corner with how much he built up the DC as a place full of danger but then never actually had a plan beyond "it's hell on earth" once the story started to approach actually getting there, so he is just postponing the arrival as much as he possibly can with every trick he can come up with. Any game that would focus on the DC would probably be better off finding some writer who already is a fan of HxH and could tackle the concept while managing to keep it actually possible for the characters to take on the challenge that Dark Continent has as portrayed by Togashi. He obviously can't do it, that's why we are in Mafia Wars right now.

What the fuck happened to Eighting, anyways? They used to be one of the best fighting game devs, now they only release shovelware.

I don't give a shit about competitive fighters, I would rather play the story of HxH.

>>716064994
And we will never be there. I have absolutely no hope that Togashi will actually go on with the series for much longer.

>>716064738
When they grow up? Kek

>>716065075
Yeaaaah or at least a contained story with its own characters and nods to the main cast for Easter egg shit

>>716064153
togashi is dropping truth nukes. He doesn't expect to live long enough to be able to write about DC. It's a "no-go" zone for humans for a reason (just like how it's in the manga, being "gate-kept"). Why would he disclose something that's "no-no"? He's merely teasing his readers, but sooner or later he'll get toriyama'd / berserk treatment, that's probably why he's prolonging the titanic arc, so he gets to enjoy his time a little longer

oh boy another anime fighting game how exciting

Hunterbros, I can't do it anymore... Togashi has forsaken us

is borksen gay?

>>716065276
You are probably right, except I am pretty sure HxH is nowhere popular enough for anyone to give the series the same sort of treatment that Berserk did. Berserk is actually popular.

>>716064153
the minute they get to dark continent they are all fucking dead, ofcourse Togashi is staling to get a big explanation of how he will make it work

Based on all prior info, how is finally reaching the dark continent going to go any other way but 98% of the people on the boat dying horribly

>>716050190
>only Hardcore weebs know what the fuck "Hunter x Hunter" is.
I live in rural Canada.
Was at Tim Hortons and saw a kid with a Killua sweater.
Went to the video store and saw the HxH BDs up for sales.
Library had a near complete set of the manga.
I wouldn't say it's a Naruto, but it's pretty comparable in popularity to what Inuyasha had 20 years ago. Its been consistently gaining western popularity since 2016/17 I think (was never that popular before, the original 1999 anime was basically LotGH tier in terms of "Everyone in the anime scene know about it, but only people in the anime scene know about it").
>>716039683
I don't know if this is some new /v/ specific drama, but I sincerely hope you're still not fighting /hxh/ like four years after the general disbanded and everyone went their separate ways (except the Killua pedo and Machifag (same person)).

>>716028578
>people still delude themselves into thinking that there might be more than 10 chapters this time
I don't really see that happen though.
Most people know Togashi only does batches of 10 chapters because that fills a volume of manga.
>>716028749
Hunter x Hunter is very much a visually driven manga and Togashi very much understands his medium.
Really, the thing he's most prideful about (or rather, most insistent on) is maintaining its place in Weekly Jump, likely because most of his manga is just plays on ideas central to Jump. Yu Yu Hakusho purposefully acts out the structure of most manga Togashi grew up reading, like Kinnikuman and Dragon Ball.
>>716041865
Kurapika IS the main character of Hunter x Hunter alongside Gon, this is a thing a lot of people miss (both due to the 2011 anime really focusing on Gon and Killua (for merchandising), as well as Volume 0 being fairly obscure).
Kurapika and Gon are parallel storylines. Both are the people with the strongest desires of their group and both pursue them in opposing ways.
Gon in CA and then him being saved by Killua will inevitably be paralleled to whatever Kurapika does on the boat, as Gon's nen contract was something he does thanks to Kurapika's instructions during his training for GI.
Additionally, Gon's story isn't over. He still hasn't met Gyro.

Obviously any of this happening is up in the air since Togashi is like 50 and the manga gets maybe 10 chapters every 1-2 years, but I feel like it'll go like this:
>Succession War (CA length arc, probably ending 2030-2032)
>Dark Continent (Shorter Arc, maybe 2-3 years)
>Gyro (Longer arc, probably 8 years)
>Final Arc (Who knows)
I see DC as being short with its ramifications being found in what comes after. I also imagine it will focus on Leorio rather than Ging.

>>716066692
HxH are not playing this game either

Yeah new 8ing fighting game fucking sucks and isn't worth buying no shit. Anyone should of figured this was gonna happen if after years of no fighters they make that piece dnf duel.

>>716067215
I have it on my wishlist, didn't realize it was out already. Probably going to wait for a sale before buying it. Paying full price for modern vidya isn't quite smart

funny enough, finding this game on steams is impossible

>>716068040
>That supposed "fated encounter" between Gon and Gyro was just the result of a mistranslation in 204
False, every source translated that line the same way. The only time it wasn't was when the 2011 anime REMOVED the part of Gyro's chapter, and that was because the 2011 anime was never certain how much it would adapt (hence cutting Kite in the first episode).
>Gon's narrative arc concluded with his reunion with Ging.
And this is false because that's not how "narrative arcs" work. That's his central goal, but there are clear narrative beats beyond that goal now. Does Dragon Ball suddenly have to drop Goku as a protagonist because he achieved his goal of winning the Tenkaichi Budokai? No, it didn't, it kept going for another 24 or so volumes with him as the main character (and then an entire sequel series 20 years later).
Gon still has a tumultuous relationship with Killua that never reached a resolution. The two have merely parted ways for the time being.
Gon still has to regain his nen. Gon will probably be wondering where the fuck everyone went when those events happened and he realizes half his friends and his dad all disappeared at the same time.
In all likelihood, what will happen is this:
>Succession War -> Dark Continent
>Timeskip (considering Togashi's love of Weekly Jump manga, it'll be a 3-5 year timeskip placing Gon at 16-20 years old depending on what Togashi decides to say)
>Gyro/Gon arc

Please don't try and insinuate that Toyotaro's ability, after a DECADE of work on one of the most LUCRATIVE names in the manga industry is anything less than embarrassing.
He spent almost a full year on that one-shot and it's still filled to the brim with amateur hour mistakes because he still has the mindset of 'fanartist' rather than 'mangaka'.
Toyotaro is also currently being trained by nobody. He is, in fact, being made to work on other shit because Shueisha probably knows they'll need to wrap up DBS fast to not look like they're looting Toriyama's corpse.
>>716070353

Gin is suppose to be the main protagonist that takes Gons spot. Gon was suppose to hand off the MC to his father, and the audience was suppose to really interested in that, but GIN had no screen time prior to this and the audience is forced to dislike him by the way he’s presented to us.

They had help from Arcsys, the game was built off of strives Engine.

HxH has none of that and is more than likely built off solely off Eightings own engine(Alot of stuff in the game is similar to Marvel 3.)

why do people pretend this is a top 3 or even top 5 shonen

>>716070832
>>he thinks Torishima is a nobody
Did /dbs/ have a collective hallucination or something? That's not what happened at all.
The only connection the two have is that both were at a French expo and Torishima criticized Toyotaro's manga. That's it.
Torishima doesn't even work in the capacity of an editor anymore either, this is just a very odd claim to make.
>inb4 source is some guy on twitter

Name how /hxh/ influenced this site. NOW.
That was never the point retard. The point was just that /hxh/ was a thing and now it isn't. Because that's just the name for the general. Just like /dbs/ or /opg/.
/hxh/'s only real claim to fame was that /dbs/ stole some of its trolling tactics around 2018/19, sometime around when dogposter was a thing and everyone started obsessing over writing flowery essays with perfect grammar, basically a characterization of scholarposting, which came from /hxh/. Beyond that it's not really influential at all, mainly because it was a general on a singular board.
>>716070995
Ging isn't supposed to be the main character.
He is a MAJOR character, but he is not the MAIN character, and he is not taking Gon's spot. If he was, he wouldn't barely be in this arc.

>>716026565
its pretty much the same as millennials wouldn't buy a game unless G4/Tech TV reviewed it first

I don't really care about the hxh fighting going on but I will say that in this actual game Leorio has a 1 button infinite, that's how poorly balanced this trash is. Get someone in a corner with him and spam 1 button, you win.

>>716073929
But it's faithful to the original work like that!

>>716027453
Just a reminder that Skullgirls launched in a pretty similar state where a huge number of matches online had Rollback netcode that was even WORSE than this. It killed the netplay community and it was dead 2 weeks after launch.

>>716074656

It's literally in the text of the work that Gyro is a super important guy who is basically the only known powerful force left outside of the Zoldycks on the mainland continents now, and his meeting with Gon was already setup as a significant future event.

Unpopular opinion but Hunter x Hunter is really overrated. Especially when people talk about how complicated Nen fighting is but in reality every fight is just people punching eachother

>>716026495 (OP)
HunterXHunter is only liked by literal retards who say that it's popular as part of a psyop to make people genuinely believe that anyone gives a fuck about it

>>716074786
At this point it's been so long since the bit with Gyro that I assume Togashi has quietly shelved that idea and it will not happen at all, or will be a lot less of a thing that it was supposed to be in his original vision.

>>716026495 (OP)
It's a kusoge of the highest order

>>716075074
>it's been so long since the bit with Gyro
It's only been long due to hiatuses.
Gon hasn't had an arc since CA, and CA ended about 14 years ago. Of course Gyro isn't going to be significant at the moment.

>>716078842
It's bad if you want something that makes both casuals and preexisting fans happy.
1. Hunter x Hunter is not flashy and the world is mostly realistic so most characters just look like dudes. The weirdest characters usually don't get used for anything.
2. Togashi likes realism because he likes deconstructing tropes, so on top of the above, he also never shows his full hand. He'll introduce a character and then never show their abilities in action or tease they have several then kill them after showing a couple. You can count the number of recurring characters we have a full understanding of on one hand. So a video game developer can never faithfully recreate a reasonably sized roster since we don't even know what "faithful" is.
3. Nen is too nuanced to put into an action game.

>>716079791

No stages, no costumes, no cosmetics to collect/buy in the shop, shitty what-ifs, bare bones story mode, shitty implementation of custom scenarios, and some of the worst, most putrid post game support and dlc you'll ever see. Basically they half-assed the entire game thinking online play would carry them but didn't realize that BT3 fans don't give a flying shit about online and FGCfags don't want to play an intentionally unbalanced game.

The illusion of depth. Much like the series proper it over explains everything to trick midwits into believing they're reading something well thought out.

just play brokuto no ken. it has all the infinites but with actually good looking sprites.

>>716080232
The issue is Nen is unironically cool in the aspect that it took DBZ's ki system and made it a much more complex system, but the series itself tries to be like Bleach and Jojo where everyone just has some random "le crazy complex" power.

Bisky's explanation of how advanced Nen can do things like transferring Nen to one limb to make your punch or kick significantly strong while making the rest of your limbs weaker so you can't defend as a result was a cool concept, but was never explored outside of the training arc.

Bleach had very simple and straight forward powers until the Quincies. That's partially why people dislike the Quincies since most of them had random bullshit hax powers.

>>716081906
Bleach had that issue throughout most of the series, from the Arrancar to the Fullbringers. The Quincies just happened to be easily the worst example of this writing style to the point their random power was their entire character, it didn't help that every Quincy was written to be a sociopath.

>>716082371
Huh? The Espada were extremely simple.
Grimmjow? Just a brawler that fought with his claws.
Nnoitra? Just another brawler.
Ulquiorra? Just another brawler with powerful regeneration and energy beams and a big energy nuke.
Tia? Just a brawler with water powers.
Nel? Another brawler that could absorb energy with her mouth and turn into a goat centaur and could throw her lance really hard.
Barragan? Just a standard decay ability.
Stark? Just a gunslinger shooting energy beams and summoning energy foxes.

I don't know why faggots insist on taking out of their asses. And don't even try to act like the Shinigami had bullshit powers because the vast majority of them had very simple powers.
It's true the Fullbringers had some bullshit powers but they are utterly irrelevant alongside their entire arc and half the fandom still thinks they were anime filler.
