Finally finished Dragon Ball Z and... I'm feeling very mixed right now. Everything was amazing UNTIL the last saga...

It was such a CHORE to watch. The villain was sooooo uninteresting and one-dimensional, and so many characters and their actions pissed me off so bad 

If DBZ ended at the Cell Saga, I'd like it a lot more tbh because there was an amazing ending to the story, while the final saga felt like the author wanted/was forced to milk out more money

So far, DB > DBZ (if it ended at the Cell Saga, DBZ would be better). Dragon Ball Super is next and... I hope I'll enjoy it at least nnn

 

Anyway, who is the best Dragon Ball character in history and why is it Piccolo?

JOYBOY!!!

 

i love the animation!!

Kikyo remains the greatest female character in animanga history (arguably the greatest, male or female), no one comes close.

 

 

THE central character of Inuyasha, a popular shounen manga at that. The one who started it all, the one whom the main villain COWERS in fear just by her mere presence, posseses unrivalled spiritual power and by far the most complex character in the series. A strong independent woman. 

 

 

The elegance, the class and the power that she has

The badassery 

 

I especially loved how several villains feared her (Jakotsu saying Kikyo is the worst lol, Kagura taking the hell off with her giant feather whenever she sees Kikyo) even the monks she met along her journey were overwhelmed by her presence.

- Completed Hunter x Hunter

- Finished Attack on Titan, waiting for fall

- Almost catching up on Demon Slayer

- Watching The Seven Deadly Sins now, I can’t say I love it but it is entertaining 

 

I had missed watching Anime so much. I finally put boundaries to my toxic job, got some more time for myself and Anime 

 

Usually I watch 2 series at the same time: one with my boyfriend and one alone. Once we completely catch up on Demon Slayer & I watch by myself the Seven deadly sins, Jujutsu Kaisen is next on our list. I will re-watch by myself Sailor Moon, I keep watch clips on YouTube and they bring me so much nostalgia

One Piece current episodes are very fun! I remember laughing my ass off while reading the manga and in my opinion the anime didn't disappoint

Although I think it would've been better to put episodes 1071-1075/6 into one long special or movie, like Oshi no Ko did with ep1.

Castlevania is so GOOD!!! Currently on season 3 and the art, plot, and fight scenes are so epic!

I used to love Inuyasha and I randomly remembered today one of the outro tracks that would play (the one focused on his brother)

That's the best ending song of Inuyasha!

These boruto timeskip leaks...

 

 

I just started watching JJK(ep 19) and I like it. The curse stuff is confusing though.

Right? A timeskip in name only, the plot points are back to the previous chapter  The characters talking like it was the next day, not 3 years  Timeskip was just an excuse to power up everyone, & restart all the plot points closed in the previous chapter in the most forced manner

 

Sarada dressing like a hooker again  Like ma'am what is that perpetually hanging off your shoulder butch lesbian jacket? What is that romper length?What are those old maiden shoes?  Her needing to get saved by Boruto again  It's like the Boruto team told Ikemoto not to give Sarada a skirt cuz everyone has been calling him a pedophile, & he's like ok, let me give her the shortest shorts possible, & multiple shots of her very tight romper going up her ass cheeks in the very first chapter.

 

3 Years same useless woman, the ******* cocked knees appearing again.

 

Her head is shaped like an alien too

 

She would look SO much better if her romper went all the way down & became a strapless jumpsuit. 

And her jacket was a nice fancy long coat instead.

[Magickarp]

Shikamaru being the 8th Hokage is so poetic tho  the kid who never wanted to be Hokage & looked up at the clouds wondering why Naruto would

Spoiler

 

Mitsuki, Kawaki, & Sumire got that drip too  why must Sarada serve 2000s Hot Topic 🤡

Spoiler

 

Boruto went from looking like a BRAT to a hot twunk jock daddy. Look at how LONG his legs are 

[illia]

I believe this man is a vampire

Not a single wrinkle on his face... He looks 40 at most

What kind of cheap  Bayonetta knock off is this? I haven't followed Naruto since like the pain arc so I'm not really updated on the series anymore

Peakyuu!!! Returning Soon

 

and I’m seeing the vision now. They’re gonna do 

Spoiler

Full battle of the trash heap first movie because the Nekoma build up was too good

 

Spoiler

They are sadly gonna cut the  Seagull match and end of nationals short (maybe tease some OVAs or something) and then move on to the final arc in a condensed format. 
 

Spoiler

I still have hope that they’ll stretch things out like AOT’s final season and retract their “two movies only” statement. I think three movies would have been enough for everyone to be satisfied. But we shall see.

in the US, one piece still on top of the monthly comic bestseller list (with 34k copies sold); the longevity:

I really hope they pull a stunt and we get more in some form or another. I don't want it to end. There's still so much of the manga to adapt too!

Agreed, I guess with the  massive manga sales being done as a source of finding and production for animation still a cost, they decided to just rake in final funds from the fans and call it a day. A shame, I’ll still watch though, I hope Production I.G. can pleasantly surprise all of us with the movies 

[AndresVanDeKamp]

I just started reading One Piece!! Just finished Drum Island arc. Wow this manga has so much heart and character! I totally see why it’s so popular. And of course I hear it only gets better. 

[poki]
