A year ago people were praising Kingdom heavily, now they're all saying it's shit? Wtf happened lol
To be clear I don't think it was shit and keep in mind I dropped it what feels like ages ago. The last arc I read was the one where they were facing against the guy who killed Oki or whatever his name was. I didn't drop it because I thoughtit was shit but just because I just didn't have the urge to read more. The pure formulaic power creep nature of that series was never something I was drawn to
 
on a macro level yes but other series have usually more to offer on top of that. I don't like One Piece's formulaic nature when it comes to most arcs but what keeps me reading is the lore, world building etc. Kingdom had none of thatto me. I enjoyed it while I read it but it was one of those pure power creep type of series.
To each their own but Kingdom has both politics and battle arcs so it's not simple unga go unga always
The tactics and different approaches of each general keeps it interesting as well
Power creep? Don't project OP onto kingdom
Hara keeps it under control even if little inconsistencies show up sometimes.
 
Kishimoto was such a fucking bum for making Tobirama the inventor of every fucking jutsu.

FTG should've been unique to Minato.

Tobirama should've had his own techniques.

Shadow Clones should've been invented by the Uzumaki's or Senju, since they're so blessed with vitality, or maybe some other mentioned clan like the Sarutobi, or Hagoromo (mentioned in passing and possible distant relatives to Senju/etc).
Tobirama is a Senju tho

One piece has a power creep aspect as well but with kingdom it felt like that was all that it was. Keep in mind I'm out of the loop. Last arc I read was the one were the main character defeatet the guy who kille that Oki dude
 
I think we'll get some good political arcs
I don't believe so.

Hara's biggest mistake was abandoning the hobbyist historian lens he used to write with.

Kingdom used to feel a lot more lively and consequential, now it's mostly just a series of events that happened with minimal connective tissue in between.

Hara's abandoned all interest in tilling the soil, and the work has suffered for it.
 
Kingdom has been ASS lately.
@MarineHQ I ain't dropping it, but not for a lack of Hara's trying.

That bum can't write an interesting battle to save his life since he divorced the mother of his children.

I'd throw a milkshake at him if the opportunity arose.
I have so little faith left Kingdom will ever be kino again fr.
Shit Kingdom is still running? That series was getting stale like 8 years ago when I dropped it. Is it still the same old formular of "one more battle, defeat this new cool general" and then rinse and repeat?
it just fell off and has been less interesting

the first 600 chapters are still pure quality
Back to back shit arcs
After the last big battle that was 100+ chapters we started getting shorter acrs and they have been hit or miss (mostly misses)
This new arc included
Hope we get back to form with the next one
All my homies trashing on Lingdom. You love to see it.

But seriously Kingdom for the first 650 or so chapters is great...but after that
:risiflip:
