UGH, I KNOW.

A Nisekoi background? Unsubscribing!

Spoiler

I might watch it, but I've heard you need to watch it in segments so the whole joke dub doesn't wear out its welcome. Though that Youtube clip show is still very funny at times

TBF Onodera may end up being the promised girl and Chitoge could still win the Raku bowl and vice versa I guess

or they'll cop out & go with the harem route. Either way how the hell has that series lasted freakin' 200 chapters. Furthermore, WHY HAVE I READ THEM ALL.

When your first, much better series, is cancelled since Japan has no taste, you hang on for dear life when you get a series that's popular.

 

[Line_HTX]

To be honest, I have no clue why the Crunchyroll Twitter background has Nisekoi. They could've had a different and possibly better looking background, like SNAFU.

 

[Zonic]

Actually, I just remembered. In the Ghost Stories dub, the VA who plays the god-obsessed girl is Monica Rial....who would later voice Stocking in Panty & Stocking and swear to no end telling other to repent.

They had contests for who is the best Nisekoi girl and there was a big response from the community.
Gotta know and play up to your customers.

 

[Mizerman]

I never found Nisekoi to be interesting or engaging. But hey...

Honestly, I feel like this can be said for most of Shonen Jump's rom-com stuff, especially when it just drags oonnn & ooooonnnnn.

 

[Puruzi]

Nisekoi's oneshot was rad as fuck though

 

[Line_HTX]

Actually, I just remembered. In the Ghost Stories dub, the VA who plays the god-obsessed girl is Monica Rial....who would later voice Stocking in Panty & Stocking and swear to no end telling other to repent.

There was a moment where when Stocking laughed, it sounded exactly like Renge's laugh in Ouran High. I thought that was pretty funny.

Imagine if most of them liked Amagami instead... lol

I need to see this.

Gotta milk that cow till it dries.

 

[Man God]

Christian Slater.

 

[Hellwarden]

Nisekoi's problem was that it wasn't funny enough to make viewers forget the romantic plot will never really advance.

At least not till the end where Chitoge inevitably wins.

Oh well, maybe these two will get together before that.

 

[Zonic]

When your minor characters are more interesting/funny than your main ones, that's kind of a problem.

 

[Hellwarden]

Yeah. That's a big problem a lot of shonen suffer from.

Also whenever Puruzi makes a comment I just kind of stare at his avatar.

Girls can like lewd things too.

 

[Schadenfreude]

I dont kniw what Nisekoi is.

 

[BatDan]

I dont kniw what Nisekoi is.

Really crappy romantic comedy running in Weekly Shonen Jump.
It started out decent, but began spinning its wheels and just kept going on and on and on and on and on.

 

[Zonic]

Wait, really? I thought that trait only existed in anime & on the internet.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Lucky you.

Whaa? Really? Why would Shonen Jump run a romcom manga? Thats just freaky.

 

[Zonic]

Whaa? Really? Why would Shonen Jump run a romcom manga? Thats just freaky.

They've done quite a few. I"S, Ichigo 100%, To-Love-Ru (ya know, before it went full on ecchi), etc.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Not really?

Death Note, Kimagure Orange Road, To-Love-Ru and Bakuman all ran in WSJ. They don't just do sports/fighting series

 

[BatDan]

Don't forget gag manga like Kochikame, Gintama, and Jaguar.

 

[Mizerman]

Indeed. Especially if they want people to actually care about the main characters more.

 

[Zonic]

Well to be fair, Bakuman was a manga about making manga for Shonen Jump so it could get turned into an anime.

...........which then got turned into an anime about making manga for Shonen Jump so it could get turned into an anime.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

TLR was always ecchi, Darkness was just the double down. Of course TLRD doesnt run in WSJ anymore

 

[Schadenfreude]

And how many of those romanve mangas were a success?

 

[Hellwarden]

So in the current naruto filler arc, it's basically the entire series all over again, only slightly different.

But they somehow found a way to make Sasuke even more of an asshole.

Spoiler

I guess the curse of hatred travels through multiple dimensions, because the Uchiha are always a bunch of assholes.

 

[TUSR]

TLR darkness was really good

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

And how many of those romanve mangas were a success?

Uhh, Nisekoi, Ichigo 100% and Kimagure Orange Road are all successful. TLR as well.

 

[BatDan]

TLR darkness was really good

They say it's "Super Interesting"

 

[Zonic]

Does making it into a Jump cross-over game = "success"? Because I recall both I"S & Ichigo 100% were represented in the Jump Super/Ultimate Stars games, even if they were just support or help.

Also remember Shonen Jump ran Hikaru no Go, based on a board game.

 

[TUSR]

I successfully posted about all the seasons of TLR and the OVAs.

ICE CREAM POPSICLE.

Selling books, man. From a quick glance on google, Nisekoi seems the longest running and most successful so far. And according to you guys, it sucks.

Uhh, your point? Shitty things can sell and run long. Like half the shit in WSJ.

 

[Line_HTX]

Toonami needs Myriad Colors Phantom World.

XD

Most of Naruto and Bleach for example
Black Clover doing a good job in the magazine rankings (it got fucking second place this week behind One Piece)
Also that Samon the Summoner crap.

 

[Hellwarden]

Quality does not equate to sales.

If it did, Ping Pong would have been a smash success.
