Not in the anime. There it's a poorly paced,pathetically animated piece of crap.

WAHT NO WRONG!!

How can someone be so wrong, thriller bark is the best looking arc in op.

One piece thriller bark animation(if this is piece of crap animation you need get your checked mate)

Thriller bark was fantastic arc in the anime(ussop vs persona was epic,bink sake was legendary,oz vs straw hats fab and god damn at that zorro kuma end)

Now I'm curious.
You know what they say, curiosity killed the Wiseblade.
The manga goes nowhere.
Yea, fuck that shit. So disappointing for a manga that had potential. This is the curse of an author stretching out their work. I'd say it is a perfect topic for Bakuman but Bakuman is already covering it to the letter. ;)
All this talk about TLR reminded me : are there even some people who read Rosario To Vampire nowadays ?

Well, of course when you make a montage of all the big budget, high action scenes something's going to look good, but Thriller Bark did not look even remotely like that for all 40 episodes. Thriller Bark is where the animators started getting really stingy (along with getting close to the source material) and the pacing of regular dialogue suffers greatly from painfully exaggerated pauses and reaction shots.

And Pirate Docking does look bad.

The OP anime started to get that way from the CP9 arc to tell the truth along with adding extra crap .
Which is why i hardly watch it expect for few parts which look good every now and then .
 
Where are my fellow TLR hater bros at?


We must display our superiority in a show of force.

KHR 375

Shocks and surprises everywhere. Ultimately my favorite teams stayed in, even if they suffered losses that I cant believe Amano did (Ken, Sasagawa, Hibari). Anyway I totally forgot the 8th one existed.
 
^This is Katekyo Hitman Reborn? Uhm... this looks nothing like the first few chapters I read.


I do not think I can stomach another Shonen battle manga at this point.

I'd say it's got far more adventure elements than battles. You should give it a try. Like, right now.

KHR changes from a school comedy to a (poor) battle shounen 2 dozen or so chapters in, but Tsuna remains as bland a character as ever.
 
I want to read it but like i said a while back i can't seem to watch or read stuff now when the MCs are to young .
Have been watching less anime because of this also .

Eh, that's for you to decide but as I said in an earlier post, aside from a short arc it's mostly Aladdin and Alibaba (who is a teen) together.

Verily, you meant Fairy Tail?

shush you

Oh, good to know I stopped reading before hitting shit.

To be fair, there's a lot of good ideas in some of the battles, but the execution generally falls apart at the end, especially in the bigger tournament arcs.

Without pointing out moment of bad animation (visual evidence) you come off as someone thats just talking out there ass.

Thriller bark looks a lot better then any of the arcs that came before it(yes better then water7), toei got all there best animator on it(plus other like tomita that don't normal work on one piece).

So what did it mostly look like, a large part of it where the fight(& ussop,chopper nami being scared out there minds) with the superbly animated 1 hour straw hats vs oz fight,30min ussop vs persona fight ,zoro vs ryumma, robin&chopper vs dr hogback &zombies(animated by nakoi tate plus others) any scene with moira shadow and persona’s ghost had nice fluid animation (most done by nakoi tate).

-Extravagant 1hour straw hats vs oz fight
- this where I was meant to post ussop vs persona but it's gone from youtube
Zoro vs ryumma
-chopper &robin vs dr hogback &zombies is gone, FU amv's(user that had all the one piece fights got banned)
-Luffy vs moria

You may not like the arc but no way it had bad animation saying otherwise is a load of bullshit.

Everybody not reading Magi right now is smelly.

does it get better? I read the first 2 chapters a while back, not bad but not my cup of tea, seamed like just gag manga with heavy moe art style(am talking really moe here) and some gene that comes out a lamp loses his powers near girls(i can see this shtick being overused to halt the plot and annoying).

It does get better. The art style wont change much and the gag feel is only in the beginning. The manga deals with serious matters like slavery and politics. The gene thing is not overused.

Kongou Banchou

This shit is so MANLY. I love Cowardly Banchou.

Tsuna is my favorite protagonist. I dont see how he is bland. I think the he is the most relatable, realistic, or maybe I find him that hes just like me irl.

Only issue with Reborn is Amano's odd art at times, or maybe she lets the assistants do scenes. Close up scenes of the characters look amazing but let them get a foot feet away in the distance and they look terrible. Most consistent compelling character design in Shonen Jack.

Yeah, much better IMO. There are some gags but it mostly focuses on adventure, battles, politics, "philosophy" and the characters later on. The shtick as you call it is mentioned only twice I think.
 
I'm looking for a completed series to read. Length isn't important. Is Yankee-kun to Megane-chan worth checking out?

It's worth reading up til the Student Council changes imo, just goes downhill from there.

As for completed series try,

Alive: The Final Evolution
GTO (If you haven't gotten around to it yet, I remember recommending it to you a LONG time ago)
Ushio to Tora
Angel Densetsu (I think you've read this already?)
Route 225 - Flawful's recommendation a while back, it's a nice, short little story.

This I gotta see. Loved that fight during the manga, and to see that they had a superior animation team work on it makes me really happy.

Also, anyone else watch this video at least once a week?

Man I was so fucking pissed off with Alive: The Final Evolution.

I wanted MC to hook up with Nami so bad. Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck. Fuck the ending and fuck the manga!

Come on... the mangaka made and finished it on his deathbed.... And he managed to wrap it up nicely and the art that we got did not suffer from it.

Can't really hate the manga because of that...

Ah, now I feel really bad...

But at the time of reading it I was quite angry because even by the ending
Nami still hadn't gotten over the MC. I mean it would've been okay if she moved on by then but she still had lingering feelings for him AFAIR.

I thought it was good otherwise, but that really irked me. :/

Damn, reading through Wiki and what a sad story. The guy passed away at only 41 years of age :(

Authors passing away at a young age is really depressing. Both Kaze no Stigma and MM!'s authors passed away recently as well, it's devastating..
 
I know we already had some discussion after the raws earlier, but...

Mahou Sensei Negima 354

This has to be one of the worst ways to end a series I've ever seen.

Those are some nice suggestions. I can only hope more people read Ushio to Tora.

The Breaker vol 5

There are a couple of things I'm a little confused about and a couple of things that are annoying, but I'm liking where this is going and overall it's being an enjoyable read so far.
Shioon keeping getting up after that beating was intense. He just had to keep doing it until he finally was able to hit that dude and as he did, he collapsed for good. He might be a weakling with acquired powers, but the change in his resolution is something I can appreciate. Makes him a lot better than the way he was back in volume 1, anyways.

I also like how the Sunwoo girl has the hots for him but acts all pissy. Makes for funny comedic scenes and she becomes cute in those.

I just wish this wouldn't be a bi-monthly publication here alternated with Aflame inferno, because I'd prefer to read it monthly.
 
Route 225 - Flawful's recommendation a while back, it's a nice, short little story.

I just read this and enjoyed it a lot. The two siblings were pretty great.

So what exactly happened in the end? Were they still in the prime world, did they jump back or did the two worlds get mixed?

It's funny because I thought that Taisuke was hooking up with Nami initially and I got upset because Megumi gets shafted because she's childhood friend. Since I thought that prematurely and the ending reveals otherwise, I got mad that Nami got shafted after :lol

:lol Tbh I wasn't a big fan of Megumi from the beginning so I was happy when Nami came into the story. She turned out to be a pretty good character so I kept reading in hopes of seeing something develop between the two but Nami just kept getting burnt... :(

Still a good read, though. There were a few points where it got boring but one can't complain with the scarce amount of completed manga that are at least decent.

My understanding is that the siblings jumped back because of Macho and the photo as evidence, though the ending is somewhat ambiguous.
 
Oh yeah, not sure whether El Sloth has already read it, but Pretty Face is a good completed series worth checking out. Had lots of fun with that one.
