God no lmfao. Please don’t let Kingdom turn into any other protagonist wank fest like most other manga.
"Turn into" - it has never been that, so what the fuck are you yapping about?
Kingdom will get boring if Shin becomes too big a focus.
The most highly regarded arcs of this manga happened when Shin was the focus. Bayou, Sanyou, Coalition War - even WZI had a good balance where Shin was still the primary focus.
One of the big appeals of this series is that it actually feels like Hara wants to tell everyone’s story and not just Shin’s
It wasn't that for the first 500+ chapters, so, again, what the fuck are you talking about?
Telling everyone's story is not a practical path forward to completing this manga before Hara is 70.
It’s so easy to get invested into all of these characters because they all feel like protagonists in their own stories.
lol
Shin almost feels obligatory sometimes,
That's the problem. Quit responding to my posts without understanding them.
Shin was the clear protagonist for the vast majority of this manga and at its peak. There is a direct correlation between his diminishing panel time and the dip in quality.
like he is the protagonist simply because Hara was told by editors that he needs a protagonist to tell the story of this era of war.
Hara chose him because he was virtually a blank slate due to the lack of information on him in historical records. He was the right POV to tell the story through because that negative space gave Hara a POV with flexibility.
Kingdom would lose its goated identity if Hara stopped focusing so heavily on the other characters in this world and solely started telling the story of Warring States Jesus.
Kingdom lost its identity when Shin lost his primacy, and the decline has been evident.
No one said anything about making him an infallible Jesus character, you fucking asshole. Why can't you respond to what is actually in my posts instead of making shit up like you're doing now?
