cuz bebop had better fights than ones made with a total of 3 frames 😛
Dragon ball is the anime He man
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
90% of every single episode in dragon ball is repeated animation
exactly
it's more fun because of the fact its making fun of superhero stuff, rather than because it IS superhero stuff
or stupid lines
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
well Dr. Manhattan is another issue
he is detached because he experiences all of time and space at once.
He's also entirely isolated by his immense power, which was the point
Dr Manhattan is a Superman
Yes, but it is in a way different perspective than Superman/Goku/Saitama
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?
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
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
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."
Yes but he also..sort of screwed it up a little on Dr. Manhattan.
My hero academia is a welcome change to the shonen formula
Naruto used to be good
Sometimes
Only some fights
Gaara vs Lee was amazing
Naruto, early early, had SOME of this going for it. But it lost it so fast...
as was Gaara vs Naruto..
I especially like how characters learn from their faults and become better
I have a friend who keeps up with Boruto
ya, just finished that one, yesterday
If only for the whole use of "Hey remember this joke attack? Naruto uses it for reals."
Kill him
The main character can't just become super strong, he has to change his tactics
nah, he can, he just fucks his shit up, so kinda reminds me of berserk
and slowly improve his fighting
