unironically, comedy is harder than most other forms of storytelling, so makes sense

This was proven in the Dragon Ball Super episode with Arale Drslump and Vegeta was like "she's a gag character, she's too strong!"

The only shonen series that ends with a marriage that I can think of that was pretty satisfying is Fullmetal Alchemist and a certain other series that has been disqualified from consideration due to the author being a real creep


Hes not loving Voldemort. You can say his name. Are you talking about Kenshin? I honestly wouldnt know, Ive never read it and I have no idea if theres marriages at the end

None of the Straw Hats are in love with any of the other Straw Hats outside of your fanfiction no. They're all in committed relationships with Adventure.

Luffy and Boa Hancock maybe? Kind of one sided because Luffy's first love is adventure.

Also Sanji did get almost married but that was against his will

but also maybe they actually like each other?

Luffy, Zoro and Sanji all have love interests but theyre: One Sided with the man not interested, One Sided with the man not interested, Magically Forced To Forget About Her. So theres no romance in the present but they have people to conceivably get married to without it sounding out of left field.

My favorite part of bleach is how it's a series constantly about Ichigo getting powers to rescue his kidnapped friends, then sacrificing them to beat the bad guy, only to get them back, then get new powers, to sacrifice them to beat the bad guy again.

This was a pretty decent OAV that quickly got forgotten cause Birdie Wing came out soon afterwards.

Never heard of it until just now honestly but based on the wiki description it sounds weird enough to be worth checking out. I stand corrected then

Even if you don't go as crazy as Birdie Wing you can use a lot of trick they use for Baseball anime to make it exciting along with having more personal conflict since it's 1 person vs many

Isnt Birdie Wing also set in an already established universe from another anime? Or is that only Dumbbells?

Kuroda likes to reuse some names, there's not a particularly deep connection between his shows that have Nafrece in them.

The Madlax cinematic universe isn't a real thing but the writer of Birdie Wing loves reusing the same country so it's a very funny meme

So no, Birdie Wing doesn't take place in an established universe despite it having Char and Amuro

Note that they didn't use this ED at all until episode 3, I'm guessing because the character most prominently featured in the ED only just introduced this episode.

Sasaki and Peeps - could you at the absolute minimum have made the coworker girl 19 or something, and not a 16 year old high schooler? I'm sticking with it for now because bird, but with how the two other girls that appeared this episode look, I'm afraid it'll just go downhill from here.
