Where are my spoilers ? The only things i ever get are @Bango🍅 fake spoilers
Yup, the link you've included is a good example for that. I also like the attention to details for the "post ts" example. "Break next week." lol. I have learned from studying Odas manga pages and others that professional ink illustrations live very much from sitting down patiently to draw clean lines, create clean consistent cross hatching and watch your line weight closely. Manga being such a minimalistic style stresses that fact even more. If your lines suffer the page looks messy and the overall quality suffers, even if you have the fundamentals set up correctly. The effort to make it look clean in most cases makes the difference between a professional and an amateur. It's the steep 20% end of the learning curve, that makes many throw in the towel. So it's kinda sad, that Oda had done it so well only to step back from that. (However if that is due to age and stress, it's not a complain but simply an observation.)
1000% agree with you here. The story gave the audience more room to breath and valued the audiences judgement pre ts a lot more, too, because it wasn't so "in your face". In contrast, there is for example Kozuki Oden. I like him as a character with all his flaws. I like his role in the story. I loved his flashback, the insights with Whitebeard and the connection to rogers journey with all its throwbacks to luffys journey and the nostagia that comes with all these links. But once this flashback was over and Yamato was introduced as Oden and the Oden doppelganger appeared and Kaido saw Oden in Zoros attack and everyone saw Oden or had a connection to Oden and everything was connected to Oden. Basically everything was Oden in the story. He was brought up again and again. Chapter by chapter. The whole Oden thing to me became like:
Same thing with Momos flashbacks and the flashbacks of Odens retainers. It's just too much. I also felt the same way with Sanjis backstory in Zou, WCI & Wano. I emphasize with their terrible past very much, but too much repeated throwbacks is just too much even for the most empathic person in the room.
Well, I think it's not only a matter of these 4 weeks of a break, but I guess in general many people have become extremely overwhelmed by their information intake in the past decade (through addictive messengers, app push notifications, social media, news, fast paced games, etc.). At least this is what I have observed in many peopole I have met. Besides I am pre 30 and suffer from it, too, so I guess its not only a boomer-energy thing ;D.
However, they definitely do try to adapt to the fast paced world. I wonder though if they also consider: "What is too much adaption?" e.g. when the quality of the plot or visuals suffer. I think a little bit should be paddled back on the empty hype front, because just as with junk food, a hollow story is just not engaging anymore and people jump off if they get nothing out of it anymore. Wouldnt it be better to try keeping a profound experience - especially since this story will probably exist beyound shonen jump magazine?!
Reddit, is this you? lol. Definitely had the same experience. You are not allowed to voice criticism in some communities, because "how can you not hype this and that?" and "Goda cant fail us!! He is a genius!" The worst part were the past weeks, when luffy fans spoiled half the internet with details for the new chapter each week. A lot of people got pissed about their unbiased readership being ruined, then about the overhyped events in the chapter itself and then about the "How can you not hype this?" backlash afterwards. The constant hype is ruining the story for a lot of people and open ended plot lines that get thrown in the bin halfway through the arc do the rest ... by leaving fans fighting in anger and in denial (*cries in neglected zoro storylines*). T___T
I will definitely check that out! (Also because I am curious since it was referenced a lot in Gintama, hehe) Thank you very much for the recommendation(s)! :)
Yup a vending machine, which has no voice actor either. So... xD If you liked the first couple of stories, you definitely need to check out more episodes! The Benizakura arc is the first serious arc, but not the best yet. I 100% recommend you check out the rest and just take your time with it. It's a finished story by now so you are not missing out on anything in the end and can just enjoy the ride. :) If you want to we can also text back and forth a bit about the nonsense that happened, too. I'd love to hear your opinion about the story ...or lack thereof in Gintama, hoho. lmao. Just dm if you want. :)
