cuz bebop had better fights than ones made with a total of 3 frames 😛

2018-11-20 00:18:35 UTC  

Dragon ball is the anime He man

2018-11-20 00:18:47 UTC  

One Punch Man is great because it subverts the whole scream-to-power-up nonsense and toys with the idea of being a hero. A lot like original PowerPuff Girls.

Jojos bizzare adventure has the best fights

2018-11-20 00:19:02 UTC  

90% of every single episode in dragon ball is repeated animation

2018-11-20 00:19:07 UTC  

exactly

2018-11-20 00:19:08 UTC  

it's more fun because of the fact its making fun of superhero stuff, rather than because it IS superhero stuff

2018-11-20 00:19:17 UTC  

or stupid lines

2018-11-20 00:19:28 UTC  

flashy lines and beams of colours

All about big brains in jojo

Knowing your opponent is what makes you op in jojo

Well, OPM is a really complex plot, it isn't just poking fun at Overpowered characters, it begins at the eventual ending of what an Overpowered character would be and how cynical he would end up.

Japanese Dr Manhattan

2018-11-20 00:20:44 UTC  

well Dr. Manhattan is another issue

2018-11-20 00:20:52 UTC  

he is detached because he experiences all of time and space at once.

2018-11-20 00:21:24 UTC  

He's also entirely isolated by his immense power, which was the point

2018-11-20 00:21:33 UTC  

Dr Manhattan is a Superman

2018-11-20 00:21:49 UTC  

Yes, but it is in a way different perspective than Superman/Goku/Saitama

2018-11-20 00:22:05 UTC  

It's shows where knowing about your opponent and clever combat that I really enjoy more. Even if it's silly in some ways, it's better than DBZ fights. DBZ is like... childsplay getting into anime since there's no thought, it's just "YELL LOUDER AND AM STRONGER"

You know who else is isolated by his power?

2018-11-20 00:22:20 UTC  

which is why Dr. Manhattan is a stupid analogue to Superman, because everyone is already dead to him..sort of

The guy from mob psycho

He can't get his dick in jack shit

2018-11-20 00:22:39 UTC  

It's a different perspective on the same intended archetype. Alan Moore hated where capeshit was going and created two comics that ultimately highlighted his issues with the characterization

2018-11-20 00:22:54 UTC  

Bleach... Bleach had the perfect setup to really play up on this idea of clever tactics since each sword had different magic powers and some of them are CRAZY. But... fuck... it just turned into another "must train, okay now I scream more to be more power."

2018-11-20 00:23:08 UTC  

Yes but he also..sort of screwed it up a little on Dr. Manhattan.

2018-11-20 00:23:23 UTC  

My hero academia is a welcome change to the shonen formula

Naruto used to be good

Sometimes

Only some fights

2018-11-20 00:23:43 UTC  

Gaara vs Lee was amazing

2018-11-20 00:23:50 UTC  

Naruto, early early, had SOME of this going for it. But it lost it so fast...

2018-11-20 00:23:52 UTC  

as was Gaara vs Naruto..

2018-11-20 00:23:54 UTC  

I especially like how characters learn from their faults and become better

2018-11-20 00:24:04 UTC  

I have a friend who keeps up with Boruto

2018-11-20 00:24:07 UTC  

ya, just finished that one, yesterday

2018-11-20 00:24:10 UTC  

If only for the whole use of "Hey remember this joke attack? Naruto uses it for reals."

Kill him

2018-11-20 00:24:32 UTC  

The main character can't just become super strong, he has to change his tactics

2018-11-20 00:24:47 UTC  

nah, he can, he just fucks his shit up, so kinda reminds me of berserk

2018-11-20 00:24:56 UTC  

and slowly improve his fighting
