Punkin Spunkin posted:I kind of love the ending to Boys on the Run, even if it's the Kengo Hanazawa manga I'm least likely to ever read again. Like sure, I Am a Hero hosed up the landing, but it's still overall a better journey I think. I don't know because I haven't actually read Boys in the Run in full in the sense that I started it a billion years ago whenever they started scanning first and I never did a reread. So maybe it's a solid journey of repugnant lovely characters. Was the guy that Gen mentioned at the end Ando, the same boxer who Tanishi and Hana had to beat together?

Sorry, not sure where to ask this as I can't find an official thread. But I just finished reading Tokyo Ghoul Volume 1. I enjoyed it and ordered the next couple of volumes. That said I see something called the Tokyo Ghoul Re: Volumes. What are they exactly?

I read a few chapters of Kannou-sensei because I was asked to scanlate it and I dunno about you but to me it's one of those hella skeevy romances that only "works" because the girl really IS secretly into the nice guy old enough to be her dad despite saying over and over she wants nothing to do with him while he stalks her at work, follows her home, initiates unsolicited conversation and physical contact, etc. I dunno man

Punkin Spunkin posted:welp goodbye Tokyo Ghoul. you were never a particularly good manga anyway, but I swear it feels like someone else took over the series at some point in the manga. dude just got tortured into having eight pack abs and goth nails and rad hair I guess and now the little girl character is starting to spout that ONI CHAN stuff and I'm just like PEACE. Like, it was never that nuanced but I swear she was just a normal little girl character and his emotions were way less hackneyed and teen girl fanfic and then it's like... It's sad how quickly I got tired and over with both Destroy and Revolution and Suicide Island too. I'm almost afraid to revisit Holyland.

I read and enjoyed the original run of Tokyo Ghoul fine. Basically my entire enjoyment of the manga was hinging on Kaneki as a protagonist and I kinda hated what the author did with him after the whole getting captured part, so my actual enjoyment varied pretty wildly throughout. But before that I enjoyed it and I actually really loved the ending, with him dying and all. Not because I hated his character or anything but because I thought it was the best and most fitting ending for him after the events of the story. So overall I'd say I liked it. I accidentally spoiled myself that he's still around in some form or another in :RE which both ruined said ending and made me way less interested in :RE. Then I read the first chapter and it felt like a completely different kind of story taking a few of the least interesting parts TG then adding a bunch of weird unnecessary stuff and overall it gave me a really strong 'latter parts of Death Note, but shittier' vibe. Also Touka didn't get to do jack poo poo the whole loving manga after being introduced as badass and that was really hosed up, imo, and I won't even forgive it if it turns out she owns in :RE or whatever Now with belated spoilers Insurrectionist fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Feb 12, 2018 |

holyland was mostly about hilariously dumb and incorrect ideas about fighting that were presented as hard-learned real world expertise. it had about as much to do with martial arts as the later parts of otokojuku.

I always assumed TG's popularity came from the edgy cannibalism psycho violence and the art looking kind of neat, because the writing is mediocre, there are way too many characters, and the action is confusing and hard to follow.Insurrectionist posted:Also Touka didn't get to do jack poo poo the whole loving manga after being introduced as badass and that was really hosed up, imo, and I won't even forgive it if it turns out she owns in :RE or whatever Sindai fucked around with this message at 02:10 on Feb 12, 2018 |

I enjoyed the first third of Tokyo Ghoul, but I feel like the plot points and characterization gets insanely muddled especially when the cast expanded. In the end, I had no investment in the characters themselves or what was gonna happen with ghoul and human relations.

Like "she secretly does like him and is just mad because of a misunderstanding" is meaningless when all he knows is that she doesn't like him and he doesn't loving relent.

I agree about the ending. it was a really fitting way to end it all and :RE starts off with what you assume is a new character and a new cast who are fun and likable. Then after a while you just kind of find out it's the main character from the first series but with memory problems. It kind of retroactively makes the character less interesting, especially when said character starts to get his memories back. It drags the whole of :RE down. Also a ton of unresolved questions and plots just kind of show up at the last minute and it feels really rushed and half-assed.

It would have been funny if he'd included dumb "i as an author did this" tips in DR just about forming a terrorist group or somethin but the half baked political takes and Japanese exceptionalism displayed are pretty much that. Reminds me of a similarly dumb silly political manga, about that masked guy who ambushed plutocrats and poo poo...akumetsu? I got pretty tired of that quickly once the story beats just became a cyclical "ahah mister president here I am in your most private office and I've got this tape of you killing children!!!" *shocked old man face*

Was Suicide Island the one where people in Japan who tried committing suicide where sent off to a remote island because no one wanted to deal with them, except the characters decided to try living there instead? I remember the early parts where they adjusted to living in the island pretty cool, like how they had to get food/water/shelter, have to keep healthy and support each other from falling back into suicidal thoughts. And there was a trans character who came out and everyone was supportive of her. But then the author introduced this shithead character from a different camp who's soooo strong and somehow charismatic that he managed to form a cult around them. And how said camp treated women they capture like sex slaves, with some graphic depictions. I tried to keep going, thinking the characters would just kill the rear end in a top hat cultist and get it over with, but I got to the bit where the cultists captured the trans character and the leader raped her and I just decided to drop it there.

Yeah, as someone who liked suicide island for a good while and stopped in a similar spot (I think around the point the ultimate badass pacifist hunter hero and his physical embodiment of ptsd girlfriend shacked up in a literal shack surrounded by banana trees) it probably should have been ended way earlier.

Not only does he rape the trans character but his loving is so dope the trans character switches to their side or some poo poo It's all very bad and revealing of the author, Holyland mostly avoided poo poo like that by just focusing on punches and more punches Destroy & Revolution got hilariously bad
