Larryb posted:Would it be better to read the manga or watch the anime then (or are both equally good)? Honestly I never saw the original anime (just Ultimate Muscle) but read all the manga (including the spinoffs and sequels like Nisei). The manga rules but it starts as a gag parody of tokusatsu for a few dozen chaps before the first wrestling tournament comes up (arpund chapter 28, the chojin olympic arc) and THEN it becomes a full on superhuman wrassler manga.

It was funny to see the son of the high priest getting horrified at seeing the exposition dialog saying that every historian the author met said he was a completely unimportant guy.

Shibatarian is cool but I am skeptic it can go much longer on Jump... it definitely belongs on another kind of mag.

Silver2195 posted:Tangentially related thought: People point out similarities between Demon Slayer and early Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, but the really blatant knockoff in that regard is Buso Renkin. Papillon Mask in particular is basically just straight up Dio It actually gets referenced on the work itself.

Darth TNT posted:I said it a few weeks ago, enjoy Fabricant while it lasts. That training arc upgrade was a death flag. But I really appreciate how this manga keeps sticking to its major conceit. The Fabricant aren’t human and never will be human Yeah this last chapter pretty much solidifies it's ending this arc

Electric Phantasm posted:Kinda related to SDS is Kongou Banchou a good read? Absolutely. I wish there were better quality scans but Kongou Banchou absolutely loving rules a lot and honestly I wish it got a sequel instead of 7DS.

Best Kongou Banchou moment was when the party were running a gauntlet of 1x1 fights and Hikyou Banchou (AKA Midriff Batman) was set up against a dude with a Kabuki gimmick that looked extremely powerful but he had to forfeit because Hikyou poisoned him with laxative food a day earlier and forced Kabuki guy to go to the bathroom.

Yeah I think the ending arc of magi got a real bad pacing to it that slowed down at parts and rushed others. I also wanted to see more of the epilogue as well.

Raiku is a genius at alternating between humor and serious tension. First half had excellent gags and second half got me on my toes.

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:I assume they'll do the actual intended ending instead of going from an absolutely glacial pace to suddenly kicking off the final battle out of nowhere and closing out the series in five chapters. My brother in christ you are in the Shounen thread what the gently caress else you want

RareAcumen posted:New Versus I liked it, tbh. Took a bit long with setup but I can definitely see it will all pay off and it really shows the stakes and danger with how incredibly scary every single anti-human faction seems to be. (I'm really curious about the Evil God and New Humanity's deal though)

Posted it on chat thread but Kongoh Bancho is getting a new scanlation with better pages and translation. Strongly recommend it, honestly prefer it over Seven Deadly Sins.

The new Elusive Samurai chapter with the giant warrior dude just casually mauling his own retainers who don't even react to the pain out of fear and the other Daimyo just looking horrified was pretty funny

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Fabricant 100 was a shame, but it clearly had enough warning or at least foresaw its own demise to steer its way to a satisfying conclusion, enough to recommend reading it. It and Embalming made me realize you can't have a Frankenstein shonen for long
