    JJK Chapter 268 Spoilers

    I think reading Full Metal Alchemist and studying its storywriting (especially the great ending) should be mandatory for every new mangaka from now on. Like how the fuck is it possible that almost no mangaka is able to write a good ending to their story?

    General & Others Nobody in Egghead was taken down

    If you start thinking about it, this arc becomes a real disappointment in terms of consequences (or lack thereof) once again. We got something even bigger than the buster call with God knows how many marines and vice admirals, a literal admiral himself, five freakin Gorosei, CP0 and seraphim vs...

    Hunter X Hunter General Discussion

    I really think it only activates in a "direct kill" situation, anything else wouldn't make much sense. It isn't broken at all if that's the case imho. Tons of ways to deal with her. Easiest one: Lock her in a cell and let her starve. Problem solved.

    News ONE PIECE Manga To End In 3 Years

    People will never learn. I've given up on it, since this discussion ("it will end in three years") has been present for way over a decade now and there are always quite a lot of naive fans who actually believe it. Elbaf alone is basically guaranteed to be a 40+ chapter arc at the very minimum...

    @Johnny B. Decent During FI Joyboy was mentioned once. During WCI the Sun God was mentioned once. Both instances were so insignificant and had nothing to do with Luffy at all, that you simply can't call it "foreshadowing". Heck, nobody thought of Luffy being a God pre Onigashima even once.

    @Logiko You cheeky little rascal. I love your trolling, but unfortunately I don't I time to read it now.

    @Johnny B. Decent It wasn't built up or foreshadowed at all. A mere mention of Joyboy at FI is no foreshadowing of Luffy having a completely different DF all of a sudden. The earliest there was any kind of hint towards Luffy being special was during the Onigashima raid itself, when Who's Who...

    General & Others Delete this thread

    After reading the entire thread out of respect, I can only say this ... give me Lee Hung back ffs. At least his Admiral wank threads had a clear purpose and he knew how to troll properly.

    General & Others If 5 Admirals are teleported to Egghead, what changes?

    Dude, Sengoku got embarassed by Mr. fucking 3. Oda would've found a way to clown him even more ...

    I don't think he was that different to begin with. It's just that after such a long time everyone and their mother knows how he writes every single arc (in terms of plot blueprint). Couple that with an overload of different characters, his problems to handle such a big cast (this has always been...

    General & Others If 5 Admirals are teleported to Egghead, what changes?

    Pretty easy, if you simply switch the Gorosei and their brainfarts with admirals and their brainfarts. Sakazuki/Saturn: Just like Saturn completely forgetting that he can immobilize people on the spot and make heads explode, Akainu forgets that he could AoE the island with magma. While chasing...

    General & Others If 5 Admirals are teleported to Egghead, what changes?

    Nothing changes at all because of plot. People still don't get that Oda gives a shit about powerlevels. All he cares about is plot and therefore twists everything so that it fits. That's why freakin Robin and Franky could clown Big Mom for example or gravely injured Jinbei could escape with...

    News One Piece Live Action Series!!

    I will say just this much: I expected the live action series to be a complete disaster and was pleasantly surprised with season 1. So they've earned my trust on this one. I think you can most certainly make a very exciting season 2 out of the material that is covered (and some additions/little...

    News One Piece Live Action Series!!

    In all honestly: Putting all of Loguetown, Twin Cape, Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, Drum and Alabasta into 8 episodes would've never worked. I much rather have them concentrate on 8 quality episodes of Alabasta buildup than putting out some rushed bullshit (aka Got season 8). Now they are in a...

    Hunter X Hunter General Discussion

    If I had to guess, the entire ship sinks before it gets anywhere. The ship itself is a metaphor for human society. You have a very small group of insanely rich privileged people secluded from the rest (1st deck, royals), then some rich guys that are still somewhat privileged (2nd deck), a...

    Hunter X Hunter General Discussion

    No, not joking at all. In the current Succession War Arc the pacing is really dense/fast. Togashi would've solved the entire Egghead finale (20 chapters) in like 3-4 chapters with that pacing. Especially Vegapunk's speech that lasted for chapters would've been two pages at best lol. No, he's...

    Hunter X Hunter General Discussion

    If I had to guess: 10 chapters from October to December this year, then a break and the next 10 chapters sometime next year To be fair: In terms of story progress 10 HxH are like 20 OP chapters (minimum).

    Current Events Oda completely lost the plot at the end of Egghead

    I fear that, too. It's why I actually didn't like Marineford, despite so many fans praising it. To me it was very unorganic. A boatload of characters that were there barely did anything the entire war, simply because Oda has always been bad handling this many characters at once. Same thing...

    Current Events Oda completely lost the plot at the end of Egghead

    I also think it's time to get back to the actual discussion and ignore the attention seeker. What's your opinion on the topic?
