Love Grand blue, and I don't know but whenever I ask for things similar to Angel den setsu, I always get GTO tossed that way like I get it they both feature delinquents and they're both relatively old but they got like whole different vibes and senses of humor.

those two, Saiki, kyou kara ore wa, and my monster Secret have gotten me some of my biggest laughs historically as far as manga goes. Then I can never find anything like them whenever I look, no matter how many times people recommend me GTO as being similar to Angel densetsu it just doesn't happen it's not the same.

No, that comic is pretty Dogshit, it's edgy to the point of silliness, every character that isn't one of "The Boys" has about as much depth as a goblin from goblin Slayer, alot of the commentary on comic tropes is either lazy ( the black superhero group where the whole statement was "look how ghetto and violent are" with no further commentary or even reflection) or near baseless ( "Guys, I bet you Professor X Diddles kids, so my version obviously does") on top of being repetitive(how many times was a hero's flaw being either a sexual pervert or an outright rapist). The theming and morality kinda completely falls apart for the sake of more "Badass" action scenes ( "we gotta kill supes because they have too much power and no one should have that, except us of course when we get to use it - hey lets do a genocide!")and the twists it had to offer made the whole thing more needlessly complex on top of being cliches,(like really dog an evil clone did it are you serious?) in the words of someone else "It's like garth ennis wrote a Hit piece on fictional Characters instead of trying to write his own."

The boy is child-bride of the moomin, all love, all fight

I meant more the androgynous appearance than the names, Also the opposite gender names are only supposed to apply to middle names, which are shared only amongst close family.

The list grows everyday, such is the hunger.

I originally only watched Naruto and outright quit when I got to the pain Arc because the filler in that Arc made the actual non-filler parts make no goddamn sense. And like 6 years later I decided I'd read the Manga and eventually finished it and you know what- the ending was still dumb.

I will admit gintama is a bit esoteric, the only reason I was able to get into it is that I saw the anime first found it funny and then read I think all 300 or so chapters that were out at the time in one long weekend.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Anybody else remember when this was about an orphan that could talk to rats.

I know it's one of three series I revisit periodically, it's right up there with Angel densetsu and Gintama for me.

Yep

My man God literally could not fix her, death in all its fearsome power could not fix her, if you can fix her you need to be using that level of persuasion to vie for world peace or something.

I think the only series I can think of that sort of technically pulled that off ,(without being like a 30 chapter short manga) is akumetsu, where they established a time limit and conditions and they follow through on them, no weaseling no last second magic they just commit to what they said they would do. and I guess technically Kengan Asura, but the sequel series kind of completely negated that so it doesn't really count.

I wouldn't even mind if any of them actually committed to being terminally ill, all of them are basically "let's spend the first Arc or two finding way to cure the illness, and then let's just be a generic Manhua" it makes for an unsatisfying story, it'd be like if in Naruto he couldn't control the nine tails for one Arc and then he just could now, no more character defining conflict just mediocrity now.

While it makes sense, it does make it seem like things don't really have stakes when a negative can just get solved near immediately. It's like, I know James Bond is going to win, but if the movie was just him walking into a room and shooting the villain in the head and then leaving it's not exactly satisfying.

Either that or they just aren't particularly good at drawing Distinct body types, like they might make shoulders wider or waist slightly thinner but they don't accentuate body type differences very much either as a choice or a skill limitation, like how for some martial arts series even when they draw the women they look kind of square jawed and rough.

Why is the slam dunk meme back

That fucking series man, never has an ending tainted a story so thoroughly.

No it's good they can walk it off.
